| [ took Peruna first to please friend
I had no faith in 1t. but | was soon
convinced. Peruna is the best medi-
cine ON the market for the relief OF all
catarrhal diseases"
Mr.. B. S. Irwin, Mayor of Washing
ton, Ca, says that he uses Peruna IN
his family as a tonic and he often
recommends 1t to his friends. He also
says that as remedy Tor colds ana
catarrhal diseases and as tonic he
regards it as superior to all other rem
edies
Mr.. Jay G. Hicks, Autaugaville, Ala
bama. says: Il have used Peruna and
consider it one of the greatest tonics
known"
Then there is Mr.. c. N. Peterson, of
| No. 1872 South Main ST., Council Bluffs,
Iowa. He says that constant eonfine-
ment to his store caused his health
to gradually break down. He was in
need of a tonic. He took Peruna and
five bottles restored him to complete
health.
Mrs. Martha Avery, No. % Graham
St, Leominster, Massachusetts,, whose
portrait appears in this article, Is a
great friend of Peruna. She writes.
-Four years ago I had nervous pros
tration. L employed several doctors,
One would say I had catarrh of the
stomach and bowels, another nervous
ness and another enlargement of the
liver. My stomach was in bad shape.
There was nothing which seemed to
do me much good. [ tried other rem
edies. but did not gain any flesh until
commenced taking your Peruna,
which built me right up. / have taken
several bottles, but have not taken any
now for about six weeks. I am seventy
three years old. I never expect to be
entirely we'll or young again, but | am
thankful for what Peruna has done
for me-"

amounts to this--if the various
county assessors had made a valua-
ton and fixed a rate at the present
time to produce sufficient county
revenue, this may not affect them
when the increase is ordered, a. pro-
vided by statute. After, the county
revenue will remain the same as at
the present time and the only in
crease will be in the payment to the
State which, on the basis of a 10
per cent increase in this county
will amount to a six and a half cents
increase on a hundred dollars valu-
alton; and in that connection it is
further to be considered that that
will make a total State rate of seventy
two and one-half cents on a hundred
dollars valuation; and that is to be
compared with the rate which the
Ways and Means Committee of both
Houses had in mind if the Tax Com
mission bill was not put through,
that is, a State rate of between 76
and so cents would be necessary in
order to meet the appropriations
which they had then in mind.
II think, in a general way, that
sets out what we have in mind, and
with that statement, we will be glad
to hear from the representatives OF
the county and take all they have to
say under advisement. We will not
be able to pass upon any given propo.
sition at this time, but we will give
all you have to say u very earnest
consideration"

BANK FAILURE IS RECALLED
Procsedinss In Bankrupt Court Rsmi-
n;.eent of Eureka County Affairs

Reno Gazette, Sept. 80: Echoes OF
the Eureka County bank failure.
which pauperized many prominent
citizens of Eureka County several
wears ago, were heard in the bank
rupt court this morning, when j..
Pouiade, referee in bankruptcy,
called the case of o. j. Smith, Min
ME d. Smith and W. E. Griffin, APP
plicants in bankruptcy.
The three named were officers or
directors of the defunct institution
and the hearing this morning was on
the claim of the Eureka County
bank against them, amounting
originally to about 100000. The
claim was disputed and to-day was
the time set for filing the banks
amended claim.
The Eureka County bank affairs
caused a big sensation and resulted
in criminal indictments being
brought against some of the officers
and directors. The o. J. Smith
case was one of. the most famous
prosecutions. 1t went into the SUI
preme Court on application for a
writ of habeas corpus twice, the
contention of Smith being sustained
on each occasion.

HIGH GRADE STRIKE
MADE AT WILLOW CREEK
Jewelry Rock Assayins From IS to szs
Per Pound Il Reported

Ely Record: On Monday last j.
H. Goodman, who is managing the
property of the Willow Creek Gold
Mining Co., which took over on lease
and bond the original strike made by
Blackwell & Pappas at Willow Creek
in Nye County, brought five sacks of
ore into Ely, two of which show pic
ture rock running into the thousands
per ton. 1t is expected that the
value of the ore of the two richer
sacks will average SIS a pound, while
many specimens were brought in
that are worth at least S25 per pound.
In fact some of them are almost the
pure quill. One specimen has a slab
of native plastered along one side
about an eighth of an inch in thick
ness.
The other three sacks were COM
posed principally of tale which sepa-
rated the rich quartz from the foot
wall of the vein. The tale did not
show free gold, but panned well, and
Mr.. Goodman was of the opinion that
it might prove to be paying ore. He
left the three sacks with Charles Os-
terlund, who is one of the directors
of the company, who concluded to
have an assay made of the stuff. He
dumped out half of one sack, mixed
it well and then quartered it down
until he had a sample for the assayer
which was then taken to Ed Millard
& Son.
The assay was run on Tuesday af-
ternoon, and later in the evening Mr..
Osterlund exhibited the certificate
to his friends which showed $4225.6O
in gold. This splendid return was
a great surprise to all, as no one ex-
pected the tale to show such returns.
The tale is said to be two or three
feet In width, and if this is correct,
it will prove to be as important a dis
covery as the jewelry rock. AT many
Of the camps in southern Nevada
the tale or gouge matter has usually
shown phenomenally high values and
is also considered as an indication of
the permanence and depth of the
vein.
The tunnel on the vein is now in
about $50 feet, in good Ore for the
entire distance. An average sampling
of the first 40 feet of the tunnel gave
returns of $685. 30; an so pound aver
age sample further on in the tunnel
gave returns of s13O, while the low
est sampling of the tunnel showed
values of $28 per ton. For the last
so feet in the tunnel the IRE will av-
erage four feet in width.
The strike of high grade was made
by Mr.. Goodman only a few days
ago about 40 feet from the portal OF
the tunnel, while he was doing some
timbering. The ore found was SC
phenomenally rich that he kept the
strike a secret until after his arrival
in Ely. He took out a couple OF
sacks of the rich stuff and hid il
away in his tent, and then concluded
not to do any further prospecting in
that section until after his return
from Ely, when a guard will be put
over the rich ore as it comes from
the mine.

place in an unusual manner:
Greater love hath no man than
this, that a man lay down his life
for his friends"
The above words of the text from
which Rev. Deming of the Episcopal
Church at Kingman, Arizona, de-
livered the funeral sermon of Arte-
mus w. johnson last Sunday were
peculiarly appropriate. The circum-
stances surrounding the death of
the deceased show that he unfiinch-
ingly laid down his life to save that
of another.
Recently appointed to the re-
sponsible position of boss timberman
in the Gold Road mine, 80 miles
from Kingman, Johnson was on
Thursday night, September II, at
tending to the duties of his position
when his attention was attracted to
a groan coming from where a
mucker named Coin was working a
short distance away in the drift. In
vestigation proved that Coin had
climbed on top of an ore car with a
bar to loosen the ore in the chute.
He came in contact with a 440-volt
power wire and was instantly
rendered unconscious.
Assistant Timberman Smith reach
ing the place before anyone else, put
out his hand and touched the car and
was instantly knocked unconscious.
The foreman. Hoffman, then arrived
on the scene, grasped Coins trousers
and attempted to pull him away from
the contact, but was himself knocked
down and lay stunned, but not uncon-
scious, when Artemus Johnson
reached the place.
Hoffman at once gave johnson
warning not to touch the body on
the car, but johnson, disregarding
the danger to himself and thinking
only of saving his companion, threw
his arms about Coins legs and at
tempted to pull him from his awful
position, but to no avail. The with
ering electric fluid caused his muscles
to stiffen and both were locked with
in the embrace of the deadly current.
Hoffman, lying upon the ground
unable to rise, ordered a Mexican
who then arrived to take an axe and
cut the wires. This the Mexican
did, but at the cost of severe burns
on the hands and arms. With the
severing of the wires both Coin and
Johnson fell from their position.
Willing hands gave every aid within
human power. Coin, the nan first
coming into contact with the wire,
gradually regained consciousness,
and, although severely burned and
suffering from the awful shock, is
recovering.
Johnson, by reason of his position,
standing on the wet floor of the
drift where his body acted as a con-
ductor for the entire charge of cleo
tricity, was beyond aid, eve giving
the least sign of life after his at.
tempt to release his companion.
