THINGS WORTH KNOWING

When washing table linen, add one
cup cooked starch to tub of blueing
water; your linen will iron much
easier, look better and wear longer.
Rat and Mouse ExterminatOr-
Rats and mice like corn, also lard.
When frying mush for the table, just
fry an extra piece for the pests.
Sprinkle freely with strychnine. Cut
mush in two-inch squares and place
on paper, SO remaining pieces will be
easily taken up in the morning out
of the children's reach. BY actual
count it has killed six mice in one
night in the same house. (Not
good remedy where there are pet ami
mails in the house.)
Keep a magnet in your hook and
eye box and reject any hook or eye
that the magnet will pick up, as that
shows they will rust.

VALUABLE PROPERTY
ON RIVER SOLD

Saturday the last installment of a
100000 purchase price was paid the
Comstock Mining and Milling COM
pany by Alexander Logic and asso-
ciates of San Francisco for the Nor
gan mill property at Empire and the
ownership of the estate has now
passed to the California parties. The
Morgan mill property comprises 500
acres of land along the river, with
the tailings deposits, and the old
forty stamp mill used during the
days of the boom.
In the past few months the new
wne have done some thorough
prospecting on the ground and are
satisfied that with up to date ma
chinery they will be able to recover
a vast amount of metal lost during
the mill rush of years ago. Early
this spring or as soon as the wealth
er moderates and permits continu-
Gus working, they will install a Sc
ries of dredges and get down to an
active campaign of extraction.-Ap-

ITS APPEAL TO
RESIDENTS FOR HELP
GOLDFTELD wOMAN'S CLUB ASKS
FOR HELP IN CHARITY
WORK

The Goldfield Woman's Club has
requested the Tribune to again call
the attention of the residents of the
district to it's appeal for donations
of shoes, clothing and money in
order that 1t may be possible for
the organization to continue the
work of charity among needy fami-
lies and the unemployed workers
who have recently flocked to the
camp.
AS previously stated, the club has
completely exhausted its funds in
the work and it's continuance will
depend upon the generosity of the
residents of the camp generally. The
many requests for aid made to the
organization make it evident that
the unemployed are in desperate
need and for that reason the club
renews it's appeal for help in its
endeavors.

SEVEN TROUGHS COALITION
MAKES BIG SHIPMENT

So far this month the Coalition at
Seven Troughs has shipped over
$4,000 in bullion and at least one
more partial cleanup will be made
before the end of the year when the
batteries and boxes will be cleaned
as we'll as the plates. This news is
the more gratifying because all OF
this bullion has been taken from the
lower level of the mine. The north
drift and stope on the 1900 level
are opening up with a large body
of exceptionally good ore; in fact,
the best that the mine has ever pro-
duced.
The company will open the new
year in excellent shape financially,
and everything at the mine points
to the most successful period in its
history. We are assured by the
management that dividends will be
resumed the early part of the year,
and without a doubt they will be
regular thereafter. = Lovelock Re-

PUMP COVERED

EFFECTS OF FIRE IN BELCHER
NINE AT VIRGINIA CITY
ARE SERIOUS

Gazing earth in the Belcher mine
at Virginia City is believed to have
covered one of the two pumps in
use prior to the fire that broke out
on Sunday for unwatering the North
End mines, says the Reno Gazette.
The earth on the level where the
pumps are located is said to be very
soft and not thoroughly timbered. 1t
is now feared that the expensive
equipment may have been perman-
emily lost.
But little information is available
as to the progress of the fire. 1t

incline where the fire started and
send a man down to investigate. If
possible, but a great amount of gas
has been escaping and it is likely
that the effort will be delayed for
some time.
Manager George d. Sturges of the
Yellow Jacket mine is expected here
today from San Francisco to take
general charge of the fire fighting.
Much new exploration work will
probably have to be done owe again
when the fire has been extinguished
and the water level again lowered.

WYOMING PRODUCTION
OF MINERALS in 1914

The production of the metal
mines in Wyoming for eleven months
in 1914, with an estimate for De-
cember, according to preliminary fig
ures by Charles w. Henderson, of
the United States geological survey,
amounted to $2,S50 in gold, 100
ounces of silver and 1900 pounds
of copper, which is a decrease for all
metals compared with 1913.
There was a small yield of mill
and placer bullion from the Allan
tic City, South pass district, Fremont
county; a small tonnage of copper
ore vas shipped from Hartville, in
Platte county; a car of copper ore
was shipped from the Encampment
district and another from the Casper
omuntain district, Natrona county.
Late in the year work was resumed
at the Rambler Copper and Platinum
company's property at Holmes, Al
bany county. The mill was remod-
eled, and preparations were made to
continue operations through the win
ter. The mill in recent years has
produced platinum concentrates and
the mine is one of the first in the
world to contribute to the platinum
production from lode deposits. De-
velopment work vas continued in
Bear Lodge district, Crook county.
Considerable development and con
struction work was done in the At
lantic City district.

Sow little, reap little"-Franklin.
The close of the year is a very ap-
propriate time for the individual to
do just what the business man does
take account of stock and see
where he stands financially.
The flight of time, as marked by
the approach of another year, must
bring home to the thoughtful man a
realization of the fact that his best
earning years cannot last indefinite
ly. 1t impresses upon him the ne
cessity of so planning his course that

may be sufficient to take up the bur-
den of his support and enable him to
spend his declining years in comfort
and independence.
E. c. Thompson, in a recent issue
of an investment magazine, main
tains that any man of moderate in
come, if he will only exercise prop
er self-denial, a at 60 possess suf-
ficient means to live on the income
without having to work.
The writer believes that in these
times of high wages and large pro-
fits, as we'll as high cost of living,
the thrifty man has such overflow
ing opportunity as the world never
offered before. The difficulty, as
he sees it, is that nine men in every
ten do not save money. In his
judgment few men, ever when earn
ing what are considered small wages,
should fail at 60 to wv at least
$4,000. The investment Of this at
5 per cent, which a be effected with
safety, would yield $1,000 a year. A
man of 80, earning $4,000 annually,
ought so to regulate expenses that
at 60 he will have at least 100000.
Some of the means through which
such results may be achieved consist
simply in keeping outgo and income
and thus saving part of ones earn
ings. The question to ask is wheth-
er with a given salary or wage one
has the right to a certain style and
standard Of living. If the style is
not warranted by the wage it is the
part of prudence and courage to
cut the coat according to the cloth.

to be surrendered. But such sacri-

ARGUS MINES COMPANY
OPENS BIG BODY OF ORE

A crosscut has been driven east
forty-five feet from a thirty foot
winze at the 216-foot level of the
old Argus workings, the lowest o.
the old workings. The fissure was
crosscut al that point and is eigh-
teen feet in thickness. A drift to
the southeast, along the course OF
the fissure, was driven for forty-six
feet and has encountered a copper.
lead and silver grade of ore, which
is improving in value and volume
taken when the work was closed
every shot. Assays from samples
down on Dec. Is show as follows:
1860, 44.2, and 1870 ounces of sill
yer, with copper seven per cent and
lead ten per cent. The ore makes
in a white spar associated with bla TX
quartz and at the present face of
the drift is surrounded by a gray ;',,r-
phyry sulphide and is heading into
the foot wall of the fissure.
The work at the Argus this year
has proven that the big fissure
striking north and south through
the old camp and exposed on the
surface for over 1000 feet and in
width from twenty feet to 400 feet
on the south end of the camp, is the
urc of the bedded deposits from
which owe $4,000, 900 worth of ore

The company has spent consider
able money during this year in prov

the bedded deposit, and did no
churn drilling in the bedded deposit
on this account. Mr.. McCuloch, man.

encountered will be taken up with
a view of shipping during the coming

JUMBO JUBILEE
BALL SUCCESS
PROVE THEMSELVES ROYAL
ENTERTAINERS

If there were any residents of the
camp who did not attend the Jumbo
Jubilee Ball at the Elks' home Xmas
night, their absence was not noted.
The great Notification, in celebration
of the Jumbo Extension strike and
the resultant come back" of Gold
field. was beyond question the most
held in the camp. Not only was it
attended by the largest local assem-
blage on record but also by the hap
piest, most li~ght-hearted crowd that
has ever gathered in Goldfield. The
boys of the Jumbo Extension mine,
the hosts of the occasion, covered
themselves with glory in the enter.
tainment of their guests and the
event will be long remembered.
In the great throng were a large
number of "old timers who have
returned to assist in placing the
camp once more at the head of the
list, the mecca of the mining world.
I Many of the old timers and we'll wish
ers of the camp, now located in dis
tant parts of the country, we're rep
resented at the ball through tele-
grams expressing regret at their in
ability to attend. Among the tele-
grams received was the following,
addressed to l.. L.. D%ellinger, chair,
man of the committee of arrange
ments: "Heartiest greeting and very
Merry Christmas from the following
named members of the San Fran,
cisco stock exchange, who trust that
the revival of mining will bring
greater prosperity to the people of
Goldfield." 1t was signed by A. S.
Wollberg, William Bannan, Nat Boas,
Dick Colburn, c.. B. Jewett, Frank
r. Lewis and Thomas S. Robinson.
Stock certificates emitting hold
ers, which included every man, wOm-
an and child present, to 10000
shares in the Jumbo Jubilee Mining
company were issued during the v
ming. They were inscribed as fol-
lows: Jumbo Jubilee Mining COM

whereof, said company has caused
this certificate to be signed by its
officers. General Prosperity, presi-
dent; Admiral Sentiment, secretary"
During the early part of the
ing the entire three floors of the
Elks' home were flooded with merry
makers. The second and third floors
we're devoted exclusively to dancing,
this form of amusement holding sway
from 8 o'clock until $3.50 this morn
ing. The lower floor was used for
banquet and the way the turkey and
good things disappeared, under the
supervision of the efficient walters,
was a revelation. One of the hits OF
the evenings entertainment was a
clever exhibition of musical talent by
the Musical Halls, a family of four,
who captivated their audience.
As a side issue to the ball in the
evening for the grown-ups, free NOV
ing picture shows for the children
we're given at the Exchange theater,
both afternoon and evening, and
each child present was given a bag
of candy.

Crushed stone is the largest fac

ed States. Figures showing the
value of crushed stone were first

was valued at over $31,000,000 OF

making has largely taken the place
of building and foundation stone.
