ENGLISH OPPOSED TO
SMALL GOLD PIECES

LONDON, Sept. 1O.-Now that 10
shilling notes have come into cir
culation and the people are recon
ciled to their use, it seems likely
that the half sovereign gold piece of
this value may not be coined again.
AT least, there is a popular agita
ton On against the small gold piece.
According to a we'll known banker,
if a thousand pounds in half SOW
oreigns were shipped from London
to Petrograd, gold equal to n of
the pieces would be lost by abrasion
on the way. Thus a large amount
of gold is lost daily through the
wear and tear on these coins. Before
the war. the five pound bank note
was the smallest piece of paper
money issued. Pound and half pound
notes were issued on the outbreak
of the war and since the decline in
American exchange, gold has dis
appeared, almost entirely from cir
culation. 1t is not paid out by the
banks in any case.
The small gold piece which loses
more metal through wear and tear
than the sovereign, is not the only
coin t O be condemned by coinage re-
formers. The half crown has also
been attacked in the newspapers as
a senseless piece of silver, since the
florin, two shillings, with which 1t
is so often confused by English peo-
Pile as we'll as strangers, is the prop
err multiple of a shilling. Silver
crowns have not been coined for
many years and they never were
popular because of their bulk. SO
the reformers advocate a four shill-
ing piece. which would correspond
to the American silver dollar.

DECREASE IN BANKRUPTCY
is SHOWN BY REPORT

LONDON, Sept. 1O.-The report
2f the Inspector general in bank
ruptcy for the year ended Dec. 81,
1914, states that the number of fail
ures in England and Wales for the
year shows a large falling off, be
ing the smallest since the bankrupt
cy act of 1883 came into operation,
the decrease being attributed to the
war.
During the first seven months of
the year receivership orders were
made IN 2,167 cases and in the last
five months only 500.
While the number of failures has
decreased the liabilities and assets
have substantially increased and the
total estimated loss to creditors is
nearly 100000 sterling in excess
of the loss in the preceding year.

SEARCHING PARTIES ARE
LOOKING FOR BIG SNAKE

Quite a number of Goldfield people
are inclined to take seriously the
story that a huge snake was seen
several days ago on Alkali lake, es-
pecially since Investigators have
found what might be the trail OF the
monster. Such men as Clarence
Sage and c.. G. Patrick found and
followed. this trail and also other in
dications that his snakeship had
been abroad. Other searching par
ties are cut today.
Many theories have been advanc-
ed to account for the monster seen
by an employee of the water com
pany, but nothing entirely satisfac-
tory has been evolved. One wag
suggested that it might be a dele
gate from the New York zoo to the
San Francisco fair making a cross
country trip. but this theory was
quickly secuted.

REAL FOOTBALL
HAS COME BACK
CALIFORNIA; CHANGE TO THE
AMERICAN GAME AFFECTS
ENTIRE WEST

When the University of California
broke athletic relations with Stan
ford, she caused the colleges and
high schools of the entire western
country to either anxiously peruse
their schedule or to do as she her
self was doing, institute a complete
change in their athletic system by
returning to American football. The
latter was what the University OF
Nevada chose to do and the boys at
Reno are diligently studying tho
rules of the new (old) game, as
well as getting out every evening
and putting their ley found knowl-
edge to active practice. Nevada is
in a very advantageous position Tor
she is in the center of the athletic
situation and with the coast on one
side and the Rocky mountain asso-
citation on the other. she is assured
of plenty of good competition.
The stand of the universities has
forced the high schools of Califor-
MIA and Nevada to institute the same
change that the colleges were forced
to make. This brings Reno high
school back again into the realm OF
the southern Nevada schools which
have always stood by the old game.
The lovers of American football will
thus get an opportunity to see the
game played by their local high
schools.

WRITES OF LIFE Of

toned down by English humanity.
Following in the wake of Ger
mans crawling across the corn fields,
the Canadian manages to creep along
without a single leaf moving. They
remain for hours on the watch, lying
on their backs and studying the
ground around them by means of Il
little mirror. Should the Germans,
treasured by the long silence over
the still fields, venture out, he is
bounced upon and bound with a rope
in a couple of seconds. The other
day, after a series of such faithful
exploits, the Canadian scouts threw
over into the German trenches a
number of little cards, inscribed:
1T is useless for you to send out any
more patrols; you have Canadians in
front of you
Il know, of course, that among
these volunteers there are many mod
ern Canadians, business and profess
sional men and wOrkmen. All are
not sons of trappers or b~ack-woOds-
men,. But it is a fact that they have
more initiative, more ingenuity and
more enterprise than European SOL
diers. And to look at them, what
tenacity there is in their expression!

WILLOW CREEK FIND
RUNS HIGH IN GOLD
ORE BODY TWO AND ONE-HALF
FEET WIDE IN BOTTOM OF
NEW SHAFT

The gold strike made recently on
the property of the Willow Creek
Gold Mining and Milling company,
located 100 miles southwest of Ely,
New, continues to improve with de-
velopment according to Clinton D.
Ray, who returned yesterday from
the new strike. Salt Lake interests
recently secured an option on the
promotion and treasury stock of the
company. At the bottom of the new
shaft, which is 80 feet deep, an av-
erage sample returned $196 in gold
and six ounces in silver to the ton.
The ore body is two and one-half
feet in width at the bottom of the
shaft and has been exposed on the
surface by shallow shafts.
The main vein strikes easterly and
westerly and dips to the south. For
the purpose of cutting the ore-bear-
ing formation at a depth of about 175
feet from the surface a crosscut tun-
mel, now in about 200 feet, is being
driven in a northerly direction and
me management expects to reach the
vein in the next forty feet of cross
cutting. The shaft is also being
sunk on the main vein and ore is be-
ing saved for shipment.
There is an abundance of water
for power and milling purposes on
the property and also an abundance
of timber, according to Mr.. Ray. The
property is located half way between
Ely and Tonopah, and is about three
miles east of the Lincoln highway
and about 100 miles southwest of
Ely. 1t was recently visited by John
f. Cowan, A. V. Callaghan, A. E. Ry-
kert and Mr. Ray. Seven men are
now employed
The original company was owned
and financed by Nevada mining men
Wilson, Charles Osterlund.
Charles Johnson of Ely, William and
Henry Goodman, John Engelke. J.
West and H. A. Stone of McGill and
Guy Tiball of Ruth. A considerable
amount of gold ore has already been
mined and two new veins have re-
Gently been opened up on the prop
erty that show high values in gold.
M. Ray brought back about thirty
pounds OF the ore in which gold is
plainly discernible to the naked eve.
He will return to the property in the
a future.

MANUFACTURES OF KNITTING
WOOL IN CHINA INCREASED

SHANGHAI, Sept. Acting upon
the suggestion of the minister ~
and agriculture and oth-
err advocates of home made goods
for China, one of the large textile
factories of Shanghai is now being
transformed into a mill for the man
ufacture of knitting wool. The
amount of wooden yarn sold through
this port annually is said to be mora
than $35, 900 in gold.
Shanghai merchants have agreed
to push the local yarn. At present
the capacity of the mill, which will
actually begin work next month, Is
only 1000 yards daily. The manu-
facturers promise as good a quail"
ity as the heavy wool imported so
extensively for use in the cold sec
tions of China. There are 40 whole
sale agents who deal almost eXclu-
sively in wooden products.
