SILVER REACHES HIGHEST
PRICE IN FIVE YEARS

The selling price Of silver Monday
reached 647seents an ounce, the high
est quotation upon the white meta
since October 9, 1907-more than five
years ago. when the quotation was the
same as that of Monday. The high
water mark for the' metal prior to Oe-
tober 9, 1907, was recorded on Novem
ber II, 1906, when the quotation was
7lM cents, according to records kept
by the Tonopah Mining company.
Heavy demands for the metal in for
eign countries, principally. China and
India, are directly responsible for the
aseendeney in its price of late. Its
price has been lowering between 63

eral weeks and with every succeeding
rise local interest in the quotations
has increased, and very naturally,

is set up, and in this all sorts of rag

kneaded by hand and carried TO th 2

women and poured into the patterns,

the holes for the eyes are cut out.

all the sockets must be of uniform

GOV. ODDIF BACK
FROM RICHMOND

Governor Oddie returned Yesterday
morning from the east, where he at
tended conference of governors Of
several states, held at Richmond. Al
one Of the sessions Governor Oddie de-
hvered an address on the subject of
uniform marriage and divorce laws
winch was published in full in many Of
the ieading dailies of the country. To
uazette reporter yesterday, the Gov
/ ernor had the following to say of his
trip:
| realized before ] left for this
conference said the governor "that
Nevada was being seriously injured
by the widespread erroneous views
held all over the country regarding
our divorce laws, and that an oppor-
tunity was presented at this confer
ence to set our position before tha
country in the right light. ! can sa 2
that good many hundred thousand
people in the United States have had
opportunity to revise their views on
the question since the Richmond con
ference, owing to the courtesy of the
press IN giving my speech such ex-
tsHutu HDtlce.
Real Worth Forgotten.
The great danger that confronts
us in this connection is that the peo-
pie Of the country are being blinded
to the fact that we are a great mining
agricultural and stock raising state.
because of the great notoriety it has
lately achieved as divorce state.
This last feature has obtained sucn
a deep root in the minds of the people
in general, that they are coming 70
think of Nevada only as a haven for
mismated couples and not as a state
possessing such great resources as W.
know it has.
The matter of a state income tax
was one of the other subjects dis
eussed at great length and according
to statistics produced at the confer
enee, the revenues of Wisconsin, in
particular, have been increased tre-
mendously.
'tOther matters of great Importance
TO the states were discussed and much
good should result from this and
future conferences, as they afford op-
portunity of exchanging views which
are mutually beneficial to the states
Congratuates Thatcher.
Concerning the appointment Of
Thatcher as attorney general during
his absence by Lieutenant-Gover
Ross, Governor Oddie is quoted as fol.
lows:
Regarding the appointment of Mr..
Thatcher, / wish to say that ! have
known him good many years and
we are worm personal friends. The
fact of the appointment viii not in
the slightest degree affect my cordial
relations with him. ! shall wish the
new attorney general the highest de-
gree Of success in that important Of
fee, and feel confident that / can
work in harmonious relations with

HANDSOME HOLIDAY GIFTS
AT GOLDEN RULE STORE

One Of the handsomest lines of holi.
day goods ever seen in Nevada is now
on display at the Golden Rule, Whine
mucca's popular store. The stock EN-
braces everything conceivable in toys,
mechanical and others, and the sight
would make an old-fashioned Sants
Claus of twenty years ago retire frola
business.
The large store room is well lighted
and is equipped with cash registers
and other modern convenienees which
make shopping a pleasure. While the
large force Of clerks are kept busy
waiting on customers, the wants of all
callers win be promptly attended to,
and Manager Morgan takes a pride in
the fact that no intending purchase
has ever left his store without being
able to make a selection.
But the "good things. are not con
fined to toys, by any means. All the
leading makes of clothing, shoes
ladies', gents ana children s furnish
ings are carried in stock, and are be
ing gold at prices that all can aft rd.
Before making your holiday selee-
tions, call at the Golden Rule and

THE SECOND OLDEST LIGHT
HOUSE OF THE WORLD

At La Coruna in northern Spain
may be seen a fretower which is, with
the exception of the ruins of the
Roman lighthouse at Dover, the Oldest
of all existing structures of this kind
says a writer in the Argonaut. Ths
exact date of the erection of this tow
er is unknown. According to an ancient
tradition it is credited to Hercules,
whence its name Zorro de Hercules.
Others say that Phoenieians, who had
established several colonies in Spain,
had erected this light tower for their
northland cruises. However, judging
from the inscription, it is more prob
able that the Roman Emperor Trajan
erected this structure. The inscrip-
tion also mentions the name of Ser
vius Supus, of Lusitania, as the ar
ehitect. The tower is built of ashlars
and is twenty-seven feet square and
1870 feet in height. 1t has six separate
stories which can only be reached by
circular staircase around the exterior
.of the tower The lighthouse was re
stored in 1854 but at the end of the
eighteenth entury was again in ruins.
IN l797 it was rebuilt by the Spanish
government and still sends forth its
beams.
