Smith Valley last Sunday, going as
far as the Hunniwell ranch, where a
splendid lunch was had. Returning
to Wellington that little town was
found to be full of autos and people.
Tourists were much in evidence and
the hotels were crowded. Auto tour
lists are making this place stopping
point. as the accommodations are first
class and the roads are good into and
out of the valley. Many autos were
met going to the Hot Springs and
there were quite number of lady

of the people who has made a success
of his own business to the extent that
he is one of the large taxpayers of the
county. He has the reputation of being
scrupulously honest and thoroughly
businesslike. Such man would, un-
doubtedly, handle the business of the
county in careful manner and to the
best interests of the taxpayers The
taxpayers are awakening to the fact
that ii is costing too much money to
run the county government and the in
dications are that they are going to
insist on having officers who will be

POPULAR YOUNG MAN
COMMITS SUICIDE
AT SHELTER TOWN.

A. E. Ford, the popular clerk in
Handel & Morgan's store at Thomp-
son, committed suicide last Sunday
evening by shooting himself through
the head. The tragedy took place at
about $50 p. m. in small room back
Of the store. At $3.50 Coroner's jury
was summoned and an inquest held.
None of the witnesses examined could
give any reason for Ford's desire to
take his life. He was quite popular
young man and was not known to
have any enemies nor any serious
worriments. 1t appears that shortly
before he committed the act he was
asked by some friends to take drink
III the saloon adjoining the store. He
refused, with the remark: mo, Paddy,
| have taken my last drink" The boys
thought he was joking and paid no at
tcntion to his remark. A few mo-
ments later the report of a pistol was
heard in the room back of the store
and those who went to the room found
Ford's body lying on couch, re-
volver grasped in his right hand and a
bullet hole in his right temple. Two
men who were in the store at the time
the shot was fired stated that it sound
ed like the explosion of frecracker.
Nothing of value was found on Ford's
person, no letter that would in any
manner explain the rash act, nor any
word to relatives and friends. Ford
was native of Salt Lake City, aged
about 80 years. Word was sent to his
father and brother at Salt Lake and
his brother is expected here today to
take the remains to Utah for inter =
ment The remains were brought
from Thompson to Yerington by un
dertaked Phipps and embalmed for
shipment

Mrs. Carter, of Thompson, has re-
turned from the Mason Hospital much
improved in health.
Ranchers in the north end of the
valley have been compelled to tighten
up their dams in the river to get water
into their bitches.
Matt Penrose has had all his cattle
vaccinated for tuberculosis.
Some of the candidates travelling by
auto, for fear of running short of gas
oline, carry small amount in bottles
for emergencies an dother purposes.
Water is now too scarce in this end
of the valley for the ranchers to flood
the roads, and auto travellers are re-
joicing.
George Keys and family, consisting
of wife and nine small children, ar
rived at Wabuska few days ago. Mr..
Keys will be section boss on the N
& c. road He says he will have to
do some figuring to supply the family
with bacon at 81 cents pound and
sugar at 10 cents pound. He is the

Summer Constipation Dangerous,

Constipation in summer time is more
dangerous than in the fall, winter or
spring. The food you eat is ofen con-
taminated and is more likely to fer
ment in your stomach. Then you are

the hot weather, thus injuring your
stomach. Colic, fever, ptomaine pois-
oning and other ills are natural re-
suits. Po-Do-Lax will keep you well,

COPPER AT 12H CTS.
IN NEW YORK .MARTS;
EXPORTS INCREASING

Day before yesterday copper metal
was l2H cents for electrolytic. Some
small buying by domestic consumers.
Some copper is being shipped to Eng
land and France, but the tonnages are
necessarily small owing to limited
transportation facilities. Germany, the
largest consumer in Europe of Ameri-
can copper, is eliminated from the
market for the time being American
brass mills are running about IS per
cent of normal capacity. The exports
of copper since August /, l5,404 tons.
Clearances of copper for Europe
last week totaled 6,023,706 pounds
from the port of New York. This
compares with 6,492,059 pounds in the
preceding week and l8, ,ll3,083 pounds
in the week ending August |.
The principal consignments were L.
265,o32 pounds to Havre and 2,l22,652
pounds to Rotterdam.
Other shipments were 22,4ol pounds
to Antwerp; 449, SOL pounds to Genoa /;
5l6,395 pounds to Hamburg; 693,S96
pounds to Liverpool; 347, $50 pounds
to London; 448,l2o pounds to St. Pc
tersburg, and 56,072 pounds to Swan
sea-
There is a better demand for copper
than has obtained since the outbreak
of hostilities, says the Boston News
Bureau. Several large sellers are ask
ing l2H cents a pound for electroly
tic, delivered, thirty days, which is an
advance of "a cent pound from the
low. Brass manufacturers are buyers
for this and and the next two months
deliveries The brass mills which had
for long time been operating four
days a week are now running five days
and are likely to go on six-day basis
in the near future.
Shipments to Europe are gradually
getting under way. The metal fetches
IS cents a pound abroad, but for the
present practically all the copper be
ing exported goes to England. When
the foreign exchange market is re-
established it will be possible to ship
to France and Italy
The representative OF one OF the
largest selling agencies says that or
ders for 1000 tons of export copper
are held up pending restoration OF
foreign change markets

IMPROVE THE SPRINGS.

We have often wondered why it is
that the Mason Valley Mines Co does
not improve the surroundings at the
hot springs it owns, just north of Wa
buska and make there nice resort.
The water of these springs contain
many medicinal properties that are
beneficial to bathers and a resort at
this point would, undoubtedly, be well
patronized. Furthermore, visitors
from all parts of this valley would
travel mostly by automobile and they
would soon demand that the roads be
fixed so that they could be comfort
ably travelled over in autos.
