LOUIS SCHLOSS DEAD
At HOME IN BAY CITY
EARLY-DAY GOLDFIELD RESI-
DENT PASSES AWAY IN
SAN FRANCISCO

Louis Schloss, a pioneer mining
man of this district, who has recent
ly made San Francisco his home, died
there Saturday, according to a tele-
gram received by j. A. Cody of the
local Elks' club. Mr.. Schloss was
well known throughout this district
and was connected with the Ke-
wanas Mining company prior to his
departure from camp. He has many
friends in this town and will be re-
membered by old-time Goldfelders
who have moved to other points.
While in San Francisco Mr..
Schloss was connected with various
enterprises and was a real estate
dealer in the bay city. He was a
member of the same organization of
which Col. Slinkey is secretary, the
Society of Old Friends. He is sur
vived by a wife and son, Ansel,
who is well known among students
here.

BUCKEYE BELMONT
SEEKS HALIFAX VEIN

Developments in the Buckeye-Bel-
mont are being viewed with interest
in view of the strike that was made
in the Halifax recently at a point SO
near the Buckeye line hat the drills
can be heard working.
The latter property has recently
been concentrating efforts on the
900 level and is working in a well
defined vein carrying low values. 1t
is the theory of General Manager
Ballet that the 1900 level is too low
to catch the Halifax vein on it's
depth, but by continuing the drift it
may get it on the trend, as the Buck
eye has fully 1000 feet more to run
on the Halifax sideline before get
ting out of it's territory.
One of the most encouraging de-
velopments of the past few days is
the finding of par and quartz in the
vein which carries bronze pyrites. as
we'll as specks of black and blue sui
phides, evidencing the enrichment of
the rock and the approach to COM
mercial values. The Buckeye has
been in operation for a number of
years and has not drawn a cent out
of the city, the stock not being list
ed, but being voluntarily assessed
by it's owners in the east.-Bonanza.

TUNGSTEN OUTPUT May
Be IMPORTANT FACTOR
PREDICTION MADE THAT NEvA-
DA MAY RIVAL COLORADO
IN PRODUCTION

Boulder county. Colorado, is abou:
to have a rival, it seems to share its
fame as a producer of tungsten.
This rival, it might be conjectured,
is in Nevada, where all kinds of
minerals, or at least nearly all, are
known to exist. A 50-ton tungsten
concentrating plant has been erected
in Humboldt county. about two
miles southwest from the town of
Toy. 1t stands on the edge of the
big plain that marks the old bed of
the Humboldt sink. and is close to
the tracks of the Southern Pacific
railway, says the Denver Mining
Record.
This plant will obtain it's tungsten
from a property that is about .wo
miles distant, in a westerly direc--
lion. although the ore hauling viii
approximate three miles. The mine
has been opened up and a large
amount of ore is blocked out, so
that shipments to the mill will start
soon.
While true, that this means onlv
one tungsten mine at work in this
district, it is a step toward ncou
fgeing the mining of the rare metal
in Nevada. If the present company
succeeds, similar enterprises may be
established until tungsten mining in
Nevada assumes large proportions
1t is highly probable that there are
tungsten fields as yet undiscovered
in the state, that at no distant day
will be mined and developed, and
the worlds visible supply of the
metal conspicuously augmented.
Nevada has metals and semi-pre-
cious gems galore, and about all 1t
needs to complete it's condition of
prosperity is the dicovery of a dia-
mOnd mine. Although geological
formations appear to be u~nfavorable
to the existence of diamonds, o
body need be surprised at any kind
of a find in that treasure-trove
commonwealth where the unusual is
always expected and in order.

GEORGE ROBINSON 4
CRUSHED TO DEATH
CAMP WHERE HE PROMOT-
ED PRIZE FIGHTS

George ID. Robinson. a brakeman
on a logging train operating in the
fountains near Verdi, vas caught
and frightfully crushed between two
%protruding logs while he was max
ing a coupling of two cars of the
train on which he was working. The
accident was not witnessed by any
one but the crushed body was dis
covered at the side of the tracks
when the train had passed by. Death
came within about an hour after the
accident.
Robinson was well known in this
camp. Last winter and spring he was
engaged in the promotion of prize
fights between local men here and
in Tonopah. He leaves a wife and
two children. living at Reno, and was
80 years of age.

finds that the orebody has widened
out to two feet of good milling

Another shipment is being saved

Law Works Injustice

c. A. Gray, a trapper of Lucky
Boy, protests that the bounty law
works an injustice to the trapper
and should be amended. He claims
that when a scalp is detached from
a hide the buyers hold that the
hide depreciates in value and the
trapper must accept a reduced
price for his product. He suggests
the county clerks be authorized 10
punch skins instead of detaching
their scalps.

ABOUT THE PENSIONS

A magazine article in the World 8
Work attacks, the pension system
viciously and declares that large
portion Of the pensions are issued
illegally. One of the charges made
by the writer is that the pension list
Is not properly verified. Every PEN
sioner knows better. No pension
warrant is delivered by letter car
rier except personally to the person
addressed, and the carrier, at times,
is instructed to inspect the pension
certificate. The pension warrant
when cashed must have two wit
nesses. AS far as the original award
Of pension is concerned, that is the
function Of the department at Wash
ington, and it's Investigations are not
likely to be less systematic and thor
ough than those of a 1lalf-informed
hungler whose work from the start
Is to discredit the pension system and
TO ignore the claims of aged volun-
teer soldiers to the gratitude of the
Lation.
The number of Union veterans who
died last year was larger than that
Grant had on the firing line at
Shiloh, or that commanded by Rose
Grams in action at Stone River. An
average of 70 years has been reach
ed by the surviving. soldiers of the
Union armies. The average amount
of their pensions, varied according to
length Of service, is $5.0S week.
Until recently the amount was much
smaller, and 1t is not granted now
unless the soldier has established his
claim subject to all the analysis of
administrative officers in Washing
ton.
Mr.. Cleveland was president eight
years. Mr.. Wilson has been presi-

WILL TRY TO REDUCE
KANSAS FIRE RISK RATES

Topeka, July 20.-Based largely
on the records in the office of the
state fire marshal, an attempt I'M
doubtedly will be made within the
next six months to get a revision Of
fire insurance rates downward in
Kansas. Since last December Kan
sas has been paying higher insur-
ance rates than at any time since
1909, when Supt. Charles Barnes
ordered in reductions of IL per
cent on mercantile and IA per cent
on dwelling risks. Last fall the
supreme court held that the order
was not legally made, and the old
rates were. restored Fire Marshal
Hussey for the first six month
shows reduction of 46 per cent un-
der the daily loss in 1912. Rates
have increased nearly IS per cent.
