RAILROAD NEEDED TO
THE YUKON VALLEY

The estimated value OF the gold
produced in the Alaska portion OF
the Yukon basin in 1912 was S.
CAS-, zoe. compared with Ss,O5o.OOO
in 1911. This decrease is due TO
the falling off Of the output from
the Fairbanks and Hot Springs dis
tricts for the other Yukon camps
either held their own or somewhat
increased their output compared
with the preceding year. The Fair
banks district continues to be the
larg ST producer in placer gold in
the Yukon country. II cannot
maintain this position long, how
ever, without a radical change If
mining conditions which will make
it possible to exploit its extensive
bodies of low grade placers. But
little has been accomplished in this
direction, and the best hope Of thu
future lies in obtaining direct rail
way connection with tidewater.

GOVERNOR ODDIE
STANDS FOR CALIFORNIA

Wht5 Governor Oddie and the
other Panama Exposition commits
sionsrs left for San Francisco, the
Reno papers stated that they were
saturated with the idea of economy
in the expenditure of the Sl40. 900
appropriated by the last legisla-
ture for the benefit of California.
These ideas seem to have oozed
from the .7;nd of Governor Oddie,
if the following from Sundays San

E~xcoriating the efforts b;ing
made by some Of the smaller news

of Nevada, in a statement at the
Palace Hotel last night after two
days inspection Of local conditions
connected with the exposition work
declared in unoquivucal terms that
the 1915 celebration of the open
ing Of the Panama canal would be
the greatest event Of its kind the
world has ever witnessed and that
the people Of Nevada and other
States would be Inundated bevond
measure if they did not lend their
best and most generous efforts to-
ward State participation.

SETTLE AN OLD SCORE
 WITH GUN AND KNIFE
Two Mexicans Engage in Pastime or
 Cutting Each Other Up.

Juan C. Gomez and Jose Chavez met at Second and Washington streets yestreday afternoon and after a few preliminaries decided to settle an old score. They agreed that the business portion of the town was hardly the proper place for the pro posed activities and accordingly ad
 tOurnment was made to q section of the city at Third and Grant streets, not quite so thickly populated.
 When Chavez made a pass or two at Gomez, the latter drew q Colts SIX shooter and menaced him with it. Chavez seemed to care little for the weapon and again struck Gomez who brought his gun down with pret- ty good effect upon the head of Chavez. The blow sent Chavez to the ground for an instant and when he arose he drew q knife and made a Iunge at Gomez inflicting a deep wound in his left shoulder The two mixed things and Gomez received an other knife wound in the head.
 The interesting episode attracted the attention of people living in that section and the police were called. Policeman Behny and Maxwell hur- ried down and found the men at tempting to hide in the deep brush. Both comba atants were arrested. Be fore the officers arrived they had succeeded in ditching their weapons and long search on the part of the officers failed to reveal their where abouts. After a short stay in the city jail where Dr. H. NJ. Beauchamp dressed their wounds the men were sent over to the county jail.
 Gomez is said to be a recruiting agent for the rebels in. Mexico hay ing quit his job with the city street department to take a patry of fifty volunteers down to the disturbed re- public He is said to have been en- gagged in organizing another company and to have been supplied with funds from the inSurrectoS

The declines averaged a a measure to London's lower range for our stocks and extensive selling for same amount here
 The lowest prices were made in the last hour during which the mar ket drifted in a sluggish fashion. Steel was then the heaviest of the favorite issues, losing over a point and other stocks by speculative i'm portance, a substantial fraction or more under the preceding days Wabash issues registered large de clines fro recent advances and were especially weak in foreign markets and showed irfegularity But dis counts were easier in London on a satisfactory settlement and a favor able bank statement. The Bank of England gained over ten millions in gold, and increased the total reserves of twelve million and a half. while the reserve liabilities rose decidedly over the preceding week.
 Another decline in rents had no ef- feet on the firmness of the Paris bourse. The supply of money in the local market fell off today but there was sufficient to meet all require ments with no change in time ac- cOmmOdatiOns.

will be the program of divine services

vice. The pastor will preach on the
subject: "A Wise Mans Wisest Ques-
ton" A prudent merchant forecast
ing the end of the year goes over his
books, takes stock, and counts the
profit or loss. Foreseeing danger men
take out accident policies. Knowing
that life is uncertain men having help
less women and children dependent
upon them wisely insure their lives
that these may not be left upon the
charity of the world Seeing possi-
bic conhagration wise men insure
their houses, stores and property. A
wise man knowing that he may grow
old lays up something for the help
less age.
A wise question that men need to-
ask themselves in this age is: when
life's banquet is over, and my seat IS
empty, will I be missed" Are our
lives such that when we are called
away the world will feel loss, or
will it be glad that we are gone?
7.3O p. m.-There will be song
service Nothing preventing, the pas
tor will give a lecture at this service
on Every man his Klondyke." In
this age of restlessness men need ~
stop to consider the splendid opD)r~
tunities and blessings at their very
doors. if they will only see them aAd
seize them. Some practical THOUGHTS
will be presented in the lecture that
all our citizens need to conside'.

scene was a typical western one. All
of the actors played we'll their parts,
and evidenced the fact that intelli-
gence and superiority are not un-
known quantities here. The play was
so interesting and entertaining, due
not only to the character of the play
itself, but also to the training that
each actor received, that a general
desire hGs been expressed to have it
reproduced. A large audience
greeted the actors and everyone pre-
sent was highly gratified. Being
fine play, interesting, entertaining,
educational, we'll rendered, let's have
it again. Hurrah! for The Ranch

The teachers of the high school are
very glad to welcome Miss Matthias,
