COL. A. c. ELLIS IS
NEAR DEATH

P. B. Ellis received word last
night from Adrian Ellis. stat ing
that his father Colonel Ellis was
in a dying condition and that all
hope was abandoned. P. B. Ellis
will probably leave for Utah to-
night to be with his brother if
possible before he passes away.
John Ellis another brother
resides in this city.
Colonel Ellis was one of Carson'e
first pioneers and lawyer of state
wide reputation. He moved to
San Francisco more than twenty
years ag and then to Salt Lake
City where he is regarded as an
authority in the profession. His
death will be keenly regretted by

THE BONDS AGAIN

An echo of the North Carolina
rcpudiated bond episode, wherein
Gov. Dickerson refused to accept
the repudiated bonds proffered by
the spectators who desired to use
Nevada as collection agency
against a sister state, was heard
the other day in the United States
senate, when Senator Bacon Of
Georgia secured the adoption
of an amendment to the arb:tra-
ton treaties providing that no
arbitration should be had with
reference to the repudiated bonds
of any state of the United States.
Evidently the spectators had
gotten in their work at Washing
ton, and, but for Senator Bacon's
amendment would have presented
some of the foreign nations a
bundle of repudiated bonds in
order to have their validity tested
by the Hague tribunal. This looks
like the last chance of these
Spectators to foist their schemes
upon the public.-Goldfieldl Post.

MANKIND Is STILL MEDIEVAL
Woman Lawyer Says the Attitude To-
ward Her Sex is Unjust and
Barbarlc.

That legislation tending to make
marriage more difficult and divorce
easier would lessen some Of the evils
of the social system was the opinion
put forward in talk on The Law and
the Lady" by Miss Mary Wood, law
yer. at the Woman's Forum. r.
Miss Wood began her paper with a
history OF the attitude OF the English
lawmakers toward woman, touching
on various. statutes that now seem &C.
centric. such as the provision Of the
middle ages, which limited the cost
Of the cloth in a woman's dress to
Twelve pence yard.
And yet that was no more barbar-
&C." said Miss Wood. than the bill
OF the Massachusetts legislator, who
would have put ban on the skirts
that were less than six inches below
the knee, decollete gowns and fancy
clocks on stockings. The bill was
killed. I don't know what happened
to the man who fathered it."-New

ADULTERLT|nG HOUSE
HOLD GOODS

The pure food and drug law
comes close to the daily life of the
people of this country, and the
method of its enforcement has
made Doctor Wiley one of the
most popular figures in public life
today. But this admirable law does
not reach all classes Of adultera-
tons, and the American housewife
wishes to have it or some similar
measure extended to protect her
from the frauds in articles of
household and everyday use that
are MT classified as drugs or
foods. "All wool" and :'pure"
silk goods contain large admix-
lures Of cotton. SOAPS that contain
none of their advertised elements,
genuine" mahogany furniture
that is made of stained birch are
a few of the frauds from which
| Sne seeks protectlon.
'Borax soap" contains no SUBJ
stantial quantity, and often no
trace of that useful element is
one of the commonest frauds of
the day. "Borax" is not a fancy
or trade name. 1t designates a
substance of established value in
common use in washing and
laundry work. When woman
buys "borax" soap she thinks she
is huying soap containing borax.
and that this soap will save her
the trouble and expense of adding
borax to the water. She is
cheated when she does not get
boraX in the soap and the man who
knowingly sells ''borax" soap that
does not contain a substantial
quantity of borax gets money
under false pretenses.
1t is standing mystery to the
layman that the authorities dc
not prosecute such offenders fol
obtaining money under false
pretenses. The common law
appears to cover these cases, but
it may be that the authorize!
think frauds of this kind have beer
so long and so generally practice
that they have acquired the
responsibility of trade customs
If this view prevails a statutor!
change is needed and the pur,
food and drugs law furnishes al
excellent precedent and working
model fer federal legislation. -

new CABLE FOR DESERT NINE

The big cable for the Keane
Wonder mine arrived in Goldfield
this morning over the T. 4 G. rail-
road. 1t comes from St. Louis and
has been about six weeks getting
over about two thousand miles of
road. Various impediments have
irterfered, but it was mainly
severe snow storms, which side
tracked the car down in Southern
Colorado. From here the spool
of steel rope will 90 out this even
ing on the Tidewater railroad to
Rhyolite, which will end it's journ-
ey. There the cable will be loaded
on two heavy freight wagons and
trailers, to be conveyed over &c
miles Of desert and mountain roads
to the mine.
the composite wire is over two
miles long and weighs 1900 pounds
1t will require several days to
unload and stretch it at the mine.
1t has to be passed up and down
over the towers which have 8
stretch of full mile, with an ele.
walton Of a quarter of a mile in the
stretch. There are distances be-
tween the towers Of 1000 feet anc
where the great distances occur

The cable will cost the company
fully $40, for actual replace
ment, and probably as much more
