GOOD MINES LEFT

The Times editor has had several inquiries OF
late regarding the prospects OF the camp and DIS
trict, also asking if there any properties out
side of the big ones which be gotten hold OF
We do not know how the impression has gotten
abroad that there is nothing in this district outside
II the Nevada Douglas and the Mason Valley
mines. 1t is probable that these being the first two
big producers have attracted much attention thar
other properties in their infancy and prospects,
have been overlooked. The Times has endeavored
call the attention OF capital to the fact that there
are many good chances for investment left iii this
district The news of promising prospects being
developed. and some lying idle, have been chroni-
ced in our columns from time to time and we be
lieve that the only way for those who desire to
know the truth about the district is to subscribe for
he Times.
There immense good copper prospects yet
in this district that will stand the test of closest
inspection. 1t will take money to develop
hem to producing stage. but there few that
Gould be shipping to the smelter within thirty
lays from the time the right kind of work is begun
them. And these prospects for sale; not at
mine figures, either but at prospect prices.
This is one, two mine district, by any
means. and it will not be many months before this
thoroughly proved by the shipment of ore to the
melter by dozen or twenty prospects or partly de
leloped properties. The side of the dstrci
has been given very little attention compared to
what has been given the west side, but this week
witnessed the shipping of carload OF ore from the
New 4erington Copper. an east side property, with
plenty more to follow which is the richest
ent to the Thompson smelter from this district, OF
my other district.
To those who want to know about the proper
les OF the district, would say, come in and look
hem over. The goods are here il YOU have money
,nough to buy them. But don't expect to get a
developed mine for the price OF prospect.

APLEA FOR THE PROSPECTOR.

The idea which received its start in Denver last
summer. OF affording aid to the prospector. is still
,eing given attention in various parts OF the mining
West. \ plea along this line is contained i'll the
following from the Aohave county, Arizona. Miner.
which ii Is pointed out
While many people believe that the discovery
II mineral will be great aid in the development or
he country, none have given the subject its tru,
weight. Had it not been for the prospector the
reat Pacific Coast and all the desert section OF the
Southwest would have still have been desert.
Who ever heard OF man hunting around in
out of the way place for farming lands espec
ally when there market within thousand
niles OF him: Yet it is in lust such out of the way
places that the prospector after mineral will be
ound. And it is after the mineral has been found
hat the husbandnlan comes in and tries to build up
he agricultural end OF the work OF empire building
In view OF these facts the suggestion is made
~ the Miner that the people OF that county should
organize and furnish funds for the benefit OF the
,rospector, stating:
There is no better field than this county offers
the prospcctor, but many good men have not the
means to outfit for trip OF several months into the
emote sections. and this deficiency should be sup
olied him by the men dependent on the mining
business for support
The idea OF giving public support to the pros
rector is that appeals to the imagination, and
while it may not be productive OF striking results
let undoubtedly does considerable good in that il
arouses interest in the mining possibilities OF the
section under consideration.
In this way it encourages the investment o
apital in the actual development OF mining prop
,rties-a matter that is OF greater importance
han is the location of new properties.-Dcnvei

more robins. What disposition he made of them Is
not known. but it is supposed that they found their

shoot robins or meadow arks and have the heart

1t has been noticed that number of boys in
this community indulge i'll the pastime OF shooting
song-birds every spring and summer with pea rifles.
singshots. bows and arrows, etc. 1t is against the
law to kill any song-bird any time and the officers
should enforce this law. The birds do no harm
In fact they do much good in the way OF devourine

Their music is sweet to hear spring and summer
mornings and they enjoy life well as do human

Some twelve years ago when the writer came
to Yerngton and built the Times office. there were
a quartette of robins who made their nests in the
large trees back OF the Office. They are here this
spring and have been here every spring We hav,

THE TITANIC DISASTER

The disaster which recently befell the new pas
senger steamer Titanic on her maiden voyage ha.
demonstrated the fact that man cannot devise ant
build vessel that will be. immune to accident
and destruction by the elements. 1t was thouSh
that the Titanic could never sink. no matter wha
kind OF an accident happened, yet. this disaster die
happen and carried to death more people than wer,
ever before lost in an ocean catastrophe.
The affair and its investigation also developed
the fact that the ship was in no way prepared to
save life ii accident should happen She did no.
carry boats enough to hold one-quarter OF her pas
sengers. say nothing OF the crew Nor were Their
but few lie-rafts. Furthermore, it appears that the
Captain OF the Titanic had been warned that theirs
were icebergs in the of the ship, but this did
not prevent him from crowdin2 the vessel along at
a rate OF 20 miles an hour, did it make him alter
the course OF the ship. She was out for record
rum and all aboard knew it, They never dreamed.
however what the danger in those water
where there were miles probably OF floating ice
chunks many times the size OF the Titanic
There were only few OF the officers and crew
who showed the yellow streak, and while they were
saved their names will soon be forgotten. The pas
sengers all showed much bravery and acted the part
OF heroes in every instance They allowed the wo-
men to take the boats and then calmly awaited
their fate No greater mark OF courage could nave
been displayed than that shown by the steamer 5
band which played lively airs until the ship was
about to take her final plunge and then played the
old scriptural air, Nearer My God to Thee stand
ing in water up to their knees This was nerve OF
the supremest kind
What will the lesson teach
There are now being built larger boats than the
Titanic and they will travel the same ocean course
1t is certain that laws should be enacted to compel
the owners of these vessels to carry sufhcen;
number OF boats to provide for every passenger and
the crew in case OF accident.
