BAER SEES NO REASON FOR
UNITED STATES Discomfort.
President of Reading Company Says
Masses Are Better Of Than at
Any Time in Worlds History.

President George F. Baer, of the
Reading company, speaking at the
dedication of the John Markle $780,
600 free public library, referred to
present political and social con-
ditions.
He declared there was no reason
for the modern spirit of discomfort;
that many well meaning revolution
lists were nothing more than habitu-
al grumblers; that it was useless to
try to make people righteous by
law; that the United States is pros
Porous; that men of means were
v SO charitable as today; that
the masses are better off than at any
time in the worlds history.
The speaker said the slogan of the
hour should be hold fast to that
which is good"

THE BOYS WILL
COME OUT ALL RIGHT.

The fact that the Police Commits
sioner of New York has received
many letters from anxious parents in
curing for small boys who have run
away from their homes In other cities
to e the championship baseball
games in the metropolis indicates the
hold hat the national game has on
the youthful mind. This kind of boy
Is likely to cause a good deal of
worry to parents, but he is not very
different from the boy of a former
generation who left home in the east
to come to the California gold fields.

GOLD REPORTS ON ALASKA.

The United States Geological sur
yey has just published as Bulletin
520-H a report on the mining and
water supply of the Fortymils. Sew
entymile, Circle, and Fairbanks dis
%tricts, Alaska, by f.. A. Porter and
c. e. Ellsworth. The estimated val
ne of the combined gold production
of the Fortymile and Seyentymile
districts for 1911 was $212,000, an
increase of $4,000 over the out
put for 1910 due to the success of
two dredges on the headwaters of
Fortymile river. The value of the
gold production of the Fairbanks dis
trict in 1911 is estimated to be APP
proximately $4,000, 900, a decrease of
$1,000, 5000 from the output for
1910, due mainly to the fact that
most of the bonanzas of the camp
have been worked out and the ma
jor part of the mining was confined
to deposits of relatively low grade.
The Circle precinct in 1911 produc-
ed gold with an estimated value of
$350,000, which exceeds that of any
other year since 1898. The increase
was due entirely to the improved
methods employed.

situation in Mexico Is not very diff
trent from what 1t was in Arizona
and New Mexico 80 years ago when
the Apaches were loose. The same
methods will apparently now have
to be applied in Mexico as then, but
will the Mexican government be able
to do 1t? In the meanwhile, Mexico
is a disagreeable and dangerous
country in with to live and its min
ing industry is seriously checked.

KEY PITTMEN WEARS
EXPENSIVE UNDERWEAR.

Key Pittman told his audience in
Goldfield the other night that he
paid SIS for a suit of underwear in
Seattle and then bought another
across the line in Vancouver for S.,
the difference representing the pro-
tective tariff. It's too bad the Hon.
Key didn't know that Canada has
a protective tariff, and worse still
that he should have permitted that
Seattle fellow to film him TO the tune
OF seven dollars on an eight-dollar
suit.-Goldfield Tribune.

TRAGEDY OF A MIssPENT LIFE.

Charles Wilson, probably estab-
lished a pecedeut in Nevada juris-
prudence when he asked District
Judge l.. N. French for a years en-
tenceT in the states prison informing
the court that he was tired of play
ing tag with the devil; not the devil
of tradition, with red tights and a
pitchfork and a lake of birthstone
into which he threw his victims, but
the devil of lost se1f-respect, dead
hopes, of competency become in
competency, of a blasted life, says
the Churchill County Standard. He
told the court that he was tired of
being a hangdog, sabbily clad devil
of dishonorable poverty and asked
the opportunity of reforming by
spending a year in the states prison
in Carson.
The request came as a sequel to
the courts Interrogation of the de-
PENDANT, who recently attempted
suicide following a debauch, If he
had any legal objections to the pass
ing of sentence at that time. Re-
ceiving a negative answer. the court
began to expain to the defendant
that the offense with which he was
charged, while a crime under the
states statutes and religious pre-
eepts as we'll, was not a crime under
the common law, and in his talk in
dictated that he would forego the i'm
position of a pententiary term and
would make the punishmet a fine,
which would be Wilson's penalty
for failure to shake off this mortal
coil. wilson listened attentively
until Judge French had made it plain
that a term in the ~penitentiary would
not figure in his punishment when
disappointment plainly marked his
face. In%terrupting the judge, he
asked for a reconsideration of the
sentence, giving as his reason that
he very much desired a sentence that
would keep him in the states pri-
son for at least a year, this period of
self-abnegation being necessary, he
said, for him to develop sufficient
will power to forego the gang" and
BOOZE" to which agencies he at
tributed his deplorable plight.
When Judge French had recov-
cred his equinimity, he postponed
the passing of sentence. In the
meanwhile, he counseled with Will
son in his chambers, explaining what
a veal in the Carson prison meant;
that it entailed complete incarcera-
ton for this period, with none but
wanton abandons as companions.
Wilson remained obdurate and ex-
planned that he was not seeking
.notoriety but an opportunity to re-
form and that he was anxious to
make n honest effort to shake off
the habit, and that he could best do
sc by being confined in the manner
requested FOR a year, following
which he would seek out a new To-
cation and commence life over again
with the hope in mind that he may
be of some genuine use to society.
Accordingly sentence was so i'm
posed and Wilson was escorted to
Carson City by Sheriff j. C. Coniff,
who eft Fallon with his delighted
prisoner, who for the time at least,
is happy with his new found resolu-
ton.

SEES GREAT
TRADE BOOM ON WAY.
President Kaufman of New York
Bank Sees Money Demand I'm
tinged by Speculation.

Louis G. Kaufman, president of
the Chatham & Phoenix National
Bank and chairman of the Century
National Bank, says the outlook of
trade for the future is brilliant.
Mr.. Kaufman, in discussing gen.
eral business, recently said:
Basic business conditions, in my
estimation, have never been so
sound. The crisis of 1907 proved
most beneficial to the business of
the country by restraining the over
production of manufactured goods.
The curtailment of credit at that
time also caused a relignment of
conditions and the enlistment of new
capital for necessary expansion in
stead of the use of borrowed money.
There is at present a fine de-
mand for money for legitimate bust
ness purposes, untinged with any
speculative tendency. The bankers
of the nation are fully awake to their
great responsibility as c%ustodians of
the fund of the people, and are most
earnest in their attempts to better
conditions wherever possible.
81 do not believe that with past
experience so fresh in thir memory
business men will be so blinded by
the glowing present as to cause any

ODD ITEMS FROM EVERYWHERE

However California may go po-
litically at the presidential election
in November, it is expected that at
least one woman from that state will
sit in the electoral college. Two
Los Angles women Mrs. Mary e. Foy,
Democrat, and Mrs. Clara Short
ridge Foltz, Republican, are active
In their respective parties and each
has announced her candidacy for the
electrical college. The men of both
parties are being urged to vote for
the woman candidates and thus give
the state the honor of being the
first to send a woman elector to
Washington.
Clement e. Coffin of Brooklyn, N.
Y, a blind man, has accomplished
the remarkable feat of memorizing
the population of the 2S5 cities in
the United States which have more
than 10000 population for the years
1910, 1900, 1900 and 1880. In ad-
dition to telling the population of
these cities Coffin can reverse the
test, 1t is said, and when the census
figures are given he is able to give
the city that has that population.
One of the oddities ON exhibition
at the Dumb Friends league IN DEN
Yer, Colo, is a fortified sparrow's
nest, which was picked up on the
sidewalk in front of the courthouse,
where the wind had evidently blown
1t. The nest is made of old sweep
ings with h~airpins and nails woven in
at the sides. The points of the nails
and hairpins stick outward, as If de-
liberately placed so as to keep off
some enemy.
Miss Lizzie Wooster. a native of
Mitchell county, Mo-, has made her
fortune through her pluck. Seeing
the defects of the old fashioned
school primer, she originated a new
one. The publishing companies used
1t, but on technical grounds refused
to pay her a royalty. Made indignant
by the injustice and being unable to
get satisfaction in the court, she
went TO a law school and settled
down to a regular course in law.
She was graduated, was admitted to
the bar, mastered every detail of her
own ease and then went after the
book companies again, pleading her
own case, and she won. She is the
author of other books that are be-
ing used in many parts of the United
States.
An innovation in Woman Suffrage
tactics was made in New York City
last week, when an automobile filled
with women stopped in the heart of
Chinatown and one of the occupants
addressed 200 Chinese on a street
corner in their native TONGUE. There
were volleys of Chinese cheers when
the speaker, who was introduced as
Mrs. Jean White" reminded her au-
ditors that women in China could
vote now, and urged that the men of
their race in this country do what
they could to secure a like privilege
for American women.
In the Hungarian Parliament last
month Deputy B%aezynski broke all
previous records for continuous
speaking. He began to talk at 10
o'clock at night and continued with
out interruption until 11:30 next
morning. At the conclusion of his
speech B~aczynski was removed in a
fainting condition and a doctor had
to be called to restore him to con-
seriousness.

Vanish the glories and pomps of the

pierce but the rind.
Honor and affluence? Firmans that

COLDS ALWAYS INFECTIOUS.

Colds are always infectious, says the
National Food Magazine The source
of infection can always be discovered
in more than 80 per cent of cases
The period of incubation is usually
less than twenty-four hours and al
most always less than forty-eight
hours. Only rarely is it more than
four or five days. Possibly these diff
ferences in the time it takes cold to
develop may be caused by variation
of heterogeneous in different cases
The affection must be fairly concen
tratedfi as in badly ventilated room
church or railway car, and must be
continued for twenty minutes or hall
an hour. Whether person be hot or
cold, wet or dry, does not at all influ'
ence the liability of catching cold
The important point is the source OF
the infection.
q AS for treatment the best that can
be done for a patient is to place him
in the open air or in room with q
good thorough draft. The reason
apart from the obvious improvement
in general health resulting from such
course is that cold is a disease in
which your patient refnfects himself
again and again If kept in confined
space of an ordinary living room. The
best means of preventing cold are:
Never sit in room that is not thor
oughly ventilated, and avoid espe

A HAPPY EXPRESSION.

Tell me your secret" recently beg

she had not met for some time. 81
know what an anxious year you've
had, yet your face is calm and sweet
as l ever saw it. l can't help wonder
ing why"
The woman addressed smiled, col
ored, and struggled with her natural
shyness before replying. Then Il will
tell you," she said, though it's
rather sacred subject with me- The
change you notice came about through
two incidents. The first was a SER
mon preached by our pastor on maxi
ing sacrifices, particularly thank-offer-
ings for Christ. He said that frequent
in the way of money or talents might,
for loves sake, at least give up some
bad habit, acquire some good habit
| wanted to give, to do something
but, since l try to struggle steadily
with my besetting sins, and have a
perennially empty pocketbook, l didn't
know what special thing to do.
"A few days later | picked up a
paper, and there read paragraph on
the duty of the processing Christian
to keep a calm and happy counten-
ance, since otherwise the world might
ask with justice: Where is your COM
forting, sustaining faith? Well, that
paragraph set me thinking, and I de-
cided that my sacrificial thank-offering
for all my uncounted blessings should
be that of quiet face. 1t hasn't
been, it isn't, easy; as you say, have
had many cares and troubles of late.
But the idea back of the plan helps
greatly, and every time l find myself
frowning or pressing my lips together
with what my father used to call the
tight look of rigid muscles, l relax
my features, assume an expression of
calmness, and at least try to smile.
OF course, the task daily grows easier,
many ways.
1T really is at once pitiful and
shameful, when we come to think of it,
that troubled, distressed, sometimes
positively desperate look so many
avowed followers of the Master wear
regularly! And, of course, come to
analyZe the situation, it's lack of pa
thence and faith that underlies the
faulty expression. If we really believe
as we ought, why there's no sense in
worrying, because there's nothing to
worry over. And if majority of pro-
Tossing Christians could look happy
for the sake of Christ, who knows
how many tired and jaded worIdIings
might be gathered into the fold just
by the daily witness of an inward
peace?"
The questioner, after a period of
thoughtful silence, rejoined, well,

1t would be tedious to go through
all the difficulties of mans spiritual
life, which, nevertheless, he van
quishes-by a determined effort to
conquer self. Temper, insincerity,
self-indulgence, pride, envy, jealousy,
sloth-there is not one master-pas-
sion of the human soul which would
not yield, the grace of God assisting,
to crusade, which in this world
should know no cessation, against
this inward traitor. Wisdom is oft
