of any state the right to pe6Ition for
an amendment to the state constitution
for woman suffrage. said petition re-

MYSTERY CONNECTED WITH
PUBLICATION OF PAPER

AMSTERDAM, Aug. 20. = Not
withstanding all efforts of the Ger
MAI authorities in Brussels, there
still appears at frequent intervals a
little newspaper called La Libre Hell
gique. Nobody knows who edits 1t
or where it is published. The pub
lisher's address, according to the
inscription beneath the title, is
Kommandatur"-the German head
quarters, which is the editors little
joke, of course. A copy is always
delivered to each of the leading Ger
man officials .
The aim of the paper, according
to it's own statement, is Ito sustain
the spirit and patriotism" OF the
Belgian people. Events of the war
are dealt with in airy fashion and
the people are shown why they need
not be discouraged.

GEESE OF WILMA SHOD FOR
LONG TRAMP TO MARKET

PETROGRAD, Aug. Is. wilma,
the Russian city which has figured
extensively in the operations of the
retreating armies from the WARSAW
district, is probably the only place
in the world where geese are shod.
The wilma district is celebrated
for producing geese, which are soid
by thousands in distant markets IN
normal times great flocks are driven
by the goose-herds to the famous
goose fair or market at Warsaw, 20O
miles distant. To prevent h birds
from getting footsore on the long
journey, they are made during the
late autumn to walk through tar,
and then through fine sand. The
geese are thus provided with a per-
feet fitting pair of boots, in which
they can comfortably make the long
tramp to market.

SEARCH Is PROSECUTED
FOR TIN IN AMERICA

In view of the interest in an ade
auate tin supply for the unltea
States and the discussion OF the
smelling of Bolivian ore on the AT
lantic seaboard, and possibly on
Puget sound, the publication by the
geological survey OF a special bullc-
tin on tin mining in Alaska Is op-
portune. 1t is noteworthy that
snecimens of stream tin were COZ
lected by the survey BIOLOGISTS III
Alaska in 1900 before this metal was
known to occur in the territory. Soon
after that time prospecting lot
stream tin became active and TWO
years later a commercial production
of tin ore was MADE.
The survey was also closely ldeh-
titled with the finding of lode ue-
posits of tin. In 1903 two prospect
Crs brought to survey biologists III

CONCENTRATING PLANT
TO MILL TUNGSTEN ORE

Rumors are rife about the city to-
day to the effect that a new concen-
trating plant is about to be started
at Toy, 16 miles south of Lovelock'
Freight teams have been hauling
lumber and supplies for the past
week.
AS near as can be ascertained this
plant will be built by the Atolio
Mining company and will have a
capacity of about so tons a day. Tile
management has already contracted
with the Nevada Valleys Power com
pany for from $50 to 200 horsepow-
err which is to be delivered from
the main power line running through
between Lahontan and Rochester
The ore to be handled is tungsten
and the ground was first sold by
Pete Anderson about three years
ago. The mill will be built on the
southern Pacific and the ore must
be transported about two miles. Wa
ter will be pumped from the Hum
boldt river a distance of about three
miles. f. l.. Beck and j. N. Davis OF
San Francisco seem to have charge

RUSSIAN OFFICER PROVES
TRAITOR AND is EXECUTEIl

PETROGRAD, Aug. Is. ~ Colonel
Masoyedoff, who has just been exc
cuted for his part in a plot to be-
tray military secrets to the enemy,
was an officer of the gendarmerie
and prominently connected with the
famous secret police. He had been
a close friend of General Sukhomli-
noff, who recommended him highly
to the government for use as a con
fidential agent. The retirement of
General SukhOmlinoff was mainly
due to his connection with the
traitor.
All the men associated with Col
onel MasoyedOff, according to the
Petrograd newspapers, occupied at
one time or another responsible posts
in the secret police.

OPERATING PLANT

The furnace for the manufacture
of nitric acid and the teaching plant
started Monday and the crushing OF
ore in the new mill at Ludwig com-
menced Thursday. The mill is
about completed, though the furnaces
and dryers are not yet fully installed
and some additional tanks will be
built. A force of ten masons are
rushing to completion the Wedge
furnace which will treat $50 tons of
ore per diem when finished. The
oxidized ore yard, which will ac-
commodate $500 tons, is also built
and ready for use, receiving the ores
now passing through the crushers.
The repair work OH the mines is all
done and as soon as the mill and
furnaces are completed a large force
OF men probably 100, will be put tho
work in the mine, largely increasing
the number now employed. The
number of men o employed on the
teaching plant finishing the mill,
tanks and furnaces and installing the
remaining machinery is about 100.
At first 1t is expected to treat from
200 to 300 IONS per day, and as soon
as the present plant is finished in
crease the %tonnagfie to 500 tons per
day. AS the mill capacity can be run
up to $50 tons per day the teaching
capacity will be increased by adding
another unit to meet the REQUIRE
ments of the mill. The property of
this company has been proven for
some time and the only problem it
has had to solve has been the eco
nomical treatment and extraction of

NEARLY ALL GERMAN
SCHOOLS keep OPEN

BERLIN, Aug. 25.-Except for
four forestry schools all the German
institutions of higher education have
kept open throughout the war, of
course, with diminished attendance.
In the summe term of 1914 there
were at the % German universe
ties, IL technical academies, five
commercial colleges, three vetincr-
airy schools and six agricultural and
mining schools. 1900 students, a
number which in the autumn of
1914 had sunk to $4,000. OF this
number $4,000 were registered as
under arms.
In the present summer term there
are only 1900 students attending
lectures at Berlin university, as
compared with $500 last year This
number includes women students.
The percentage of German univer-
sity students who have gone to the
front is largest at Koenigsberg, "a
per cent; while it is 60 per cent at
Heidelberg; Sc per cent at Munich:
"a per cen at Berlin and only II
per cent at Frankfort.
The total number of German
students and professors killed in the
war according to Academic Rund
schau, is 1000. Leipzig university
has suffered most severely of all
losing 266 students.

FINAL SURVEY WORK
ON BONANZA GROUP

Final survey work on the Bonan-
"a group of IL claims, owned by the
Mount Helens Development company.
Is to be completed Immediately, ac-
cording to a statement by b. G.. Nc
Bride. civil engineer of Elko who, to-
States deputy mineral surveyor, ar
rived in Contact Saturday. Messrs.
Mcbride and DeArmond are associat-
ed together in the engineering busi-
ness at Elko and came to Contact to
complete the work which Mcbride
began about June 1, last.
The Mount Helens Development
company is a Minnesota corporation.
with we'll known capitalists behind
the organization. Its properties are
located on l. and ID mountain near
its southwest base and considerable
development work has been done
under direction of Robert McShane,
local manager. Fourteen hundred
feet of work was done during 1909,
1910 and 1911, and a vertical depth
of $50 feet had been reached. At
the time development was discon-
tinued work was being prosecuted on
a ledge 81 feet wide, with ore values
running 5 per cent copper and IL
ounces in silver. At every point
where any amount of development
has been done large deposits of COM
mercial ore have been uncovered
For the past 80 days Manager
McShane has been working a small
force of men on the property in fur
Their development work. With the
property patented, it is not improb-
able that future development will ne
prosecuted upon a much larger scale
than in the past. 1t has long been
hoped that the owners of h 30
nanza property would commence ac'
tive operations in the camp, and il
is conceded by experts and engineers
that the mineral wealth already ex-
posed on the group is of extent and
value to fully warrant the prosecu-
ton of development work on 6
larger scale than any heretofore un'
dertaken.
The officers of the company are;
S. p. Snider, president; f. A. Eteen
secretary; Ed Douglas, vice pres
dent and L. Fl. Piper, treasurer, al
of Minneapolis, with Robt. McShant
of Contact, local manager.
The work of surveying the prop
erty will require about 10 days, &C
cording to Mr.. Mcbride, who brings
to Contact the kind of booster spir
it that spells a greaer mining indus

At PRINCE CON-. MINE
MANAGEMENT EXPECTS TO CUT
HIGH-GRADE ORE FTSSURE
IN TWO DAYS

The fissure which has been prov
en- to carry high grade ore is expect
ed to be cut in the drift off the
winze on the 700 level of the Prince
Consolidated property within the
next two days. The physical con-
dition of the property is excellent.
according to M. c. Godbe, who has
recently returned from a trip of in
spection. Between 10000 and 49,
600 tons of iron ore are being
shipped per month.
Three new pieces of development
work are under way at the property
which is located at Phoebe. New. The
winze and what will finally become
the main shaft of the property is
being driven down from the 600 lev
ell and good progress is being made
in sinking. At the 700-foot point
a station was cut and the crosscut
started that is expected to cut the
high grade fissure in the next two
days. This fissure has been produc-
tive of high grade ore in other por-
tons of the property and the man
agement is watching the new devel-
opment with considerable interest.
After sufficient depth has been
attained in the winze off the 600
level it is the intention of the COM
pay to start a raise Immediately
above the Wine and drive it to the
surface, after which the workings
will be used as the principal shaft.
Another piece of development
work that is being pushed forward
as rapidly as possible is the driving
of the crosscut off the 600 level &c
the west. The objective of this
crosscut is to cut another north
south fissure lying to the west Of
the shaft. This should be reached
in another 100 feet of prosecuting
as the crosscut is now in a distance
of about 60 feet. Good progress is
being made. e. l.. Godbe, who ha:
