When you come to kick the bucket you

DETAILS OF FINLEY
SHOOTING AT GERLACH

District ATTORNEY Lunsford has re-
eeived the transcript of the evidence
taken at the coroner's in1uest held
over the remains of Cheat Finley, shot
rear Gerlach last week by JEFF Brown.
SAYS the Gazette
The evidence shows that Finley and
Brown had some trouble over horses
which belonged to Finley and which
were shot. There were no eve wit
nesses TO the shooting, but Fred War
rem, a rancher, was present during a
quarrel between Brown and Finley ON
the previous day. Warren gave evi-
dence showing that Finley was in a
belligerent attitude and said Brown
apparently tried TO avoid trouble.
Brown told his story of the shoot
ing, saying that he met Finley early in
the morning. Finley carried a rifle and
Brown a repeating shotgun. Brown
said Finley began talking about the
horses and dming the argument raised
his rifle as if to shoot, after telling
him that he came there with the inten-
tion of killing or getting killed Brown
then shot, the charge entering Finley 5
right breast.
District Attorney Lunsford probably
will go to Gerlach Monday TO conduct
the preliminary examination of Brown.

WORTHY OF HIGH RANK
CHEF NOT USUALLY ACCORDED
HIS PROPER POSITION.
When One Comes to Think of II, the
Preparation of Food Plays a IRE
mendous Part IN the Work
of the World.

Hail to the chef who IN triumph
advances!' Why aot chef, instead
OF chief?
Nobody ever gives enough credit
to the cook. We all enjoy a good
dinner, but after it is eaten. and the
dishes cleared away. how seldom we
think what mas been the effect on
humanity of the kind of meals that
have been eaten three times a day
sometimes less, rarely more) for
centuries!
Cooking is one of the principal
forces in civilization, and it has
played tremendous part in bring
ing mankind to the high plane it now
holds.
The principal reason for cooking
our food is 10 destroy disease germs.
For many ages no one knew what
caused illness, but now nearly all
maladies are traceable to these tiny
germs. many of which are found in
food, and can be destroyed only by
the heat of cooking.
Man, owing to the very com
plicated machinery of his body, falls
a prey to disease more easily than
the animals. Consequently food which
an animal can take without harm
may kill a man. Cooking destroys
large proportion of the parasites, mi
crobes and bacteria in food, thus CIV
ing man chance to digest diet that
otherwise would kill him.
frequently one forgets that cook
ing is-primarily not intended to make
food more pleasant to the taste, but
to make it easier to digest But
when a dish is toothsome it makes
the mouth water, or. in other words,
it causes a great deal of saliva to
flow, with the result that the saliva
and food go down into the stomach
together, and the food is more easily
made available for digestion.
If, however. the cook is anxious to
tickle the taste of the man who is to
eat her food and thinks more of
satisfying the palate of an epicure
than of the digestibility of the meal,
she is only storing up trouble for the
eater.
In order to achieve the best results
in the destruction of bacteria, and
in the increasing of digestibility,
meat and other foods should be sub
1ected first TO intense heat, so as to
form retaining skin, as is done in
roasting or broiling. Then the heat
should be reduced and kept ON for
long term, during which the juices
gradually soften the muscular fibers.
This acts as a deathblow to the
millions OF bacteria which would 9TH
erwise have found a place in the stom-
ach of the man or the woman who
was to eat it.
From this point of view. therefore,
the cook is one of the most impor-
tant factors in the upward progress
of the race from brute to man. Cooks
have been as much a benefactor to
the race as a whole as they have been
a boon to the hungry. 1t is the cook
who has borne the banner of prog
ress through all the ages.

gold and silver. Assays of ore from the

Weir will leave for San Francisco IN
a few days, but will return and put in
the winter at the mine, taking out ore
for shipment. The distance to the rail
rad from the mine is so. miles to Jun.

-Four of the claims were located by
Mr.. Weir in 1862. and two years later
they were patented and a mill built

The one great theme of absorbing
Interest in the San Francisco stock ex-
change for fortnight past has been
the coming convection of mining bro
kers which will open in that city Sep
tember 81, and continue in session two
days. The success which has attended
the mission of W. C. Ralston, special
preventative of the board, who has
visited all the leading exchanges of
the east in which mining shares are
traded, has not only assured the call

en hand to cooperate with the brokers
in their regenerative work.
It is generally predicted that the
world stands on the edge of great
revival in mining. not only for the pro-
esous metals but for copper, lead. zins,

History regarding the building Of
the transcontinental line is not at the
