BELGIAN REFUGEES
ARRIVE IN THE CITY
Tell of Horrors of War and
Devastation of Native
Country.

Seven Belgian refugees arrived in
Mishawaka Friday night and were
met at the Grand Trunk station by
a number OF their fellow country
men who accompanied them to the
homes that have been provided
them by relatives. Eight or nine
more were 10 have come here, but
owing to sickness among them they
have been detained in New York. To
The News-Times Mrs. August Rothy
through an interpreter told OF the
many hardships endured by the
refugees since the outbreak Of the
war. and OF their happiness on hav-
ing arrived in this country.
She said that no one can have
any conception Of the devastation
caused In Belgium since the out
break Of the war, nor OF the cruel
ties practised on the civilian portion
OF the population by the enemies.
AS she related some of the horrors
to which women and even children
we're subjected her frame shook
with emotion. Then. again, the
beautiful churchesl Desecrated and
left in ruins and nowhere but the
blood stained fields In which To wor-
ship.
As Mrs. Rothy recalled the hOr-
rors through which she and count
less numbers OF others had passed.
tears came into her eyes, and even
the local countrymen and women
who are TO befriend them gave vent
70 their feelings unrestrainedly.
When friendly arms gathered up her
four young children and protected
them from the chilly night the
woman wept tears OF gratitude.
Three children Of Charles De-
Cocker were also in the party and
were met at the station by their
father who was overcome as he
clasped them 10 his arms on their
arrival in the Belgian residential
district the population turned out
Ell masse and gave the refugees a
most sincere and hearty reception.
The children's ages range from
eight TO thirteen years.
1t is almost two months since the
refugees left what had once been
their home. but owing to many de-
lays the party arrived in New York
long after scheduled time.

FAVORABLE TO
BU0L'S BILLS
COMMITTEES REPORTS ON MEAS
URES TO CHANGE ANTT-GAM-
BLING LAW

CARSON CITY. New, Feb. 2. =
Favorable reports were presented by
the senate committee on railroads on
Buol's bills establishing a racing
commission and amending the anti
gambling law so as to permit a Paris
mutuel system of betting on horse
races. The reports were adopted and
both bills made a special order for
next Tuesday afternoon at 2:15.
The amendment to the anti-gam-
bling law was returned in it's original
form but slight amendments were
made to the race track bill. The
committee changed the commission
from five to three members and add
ed another section making it a fell
way attempt to influence any jockey
or other person connected with any
race with intent to influence the re-
suit of any race.
Harrington of Ormsby blocked an
attempt on the part of Buol to rush
both bills through the senate this
morning by moving to make them a
special order for next Tuesday. Har-
rington said that he did not believe
the senate should rush bills that
were of statewide Importance
through without giving them due
consideration. His motion carried
with but few dissenting votes. Buol
had moved to place them on final
passage. Harrington also succeeded
in having the report of the commit
tee on the two bills amended to
show that the report was merely a
majority report.

INTERESTING news FROM PARIS

PARIS, January IS. = Legal
procedure in France has been dis
organized by the war. Lawyers and
witnesses in many civil suits are at
the front; manv of them have fallen
in battle and no one can now antici-
pate the extent to which cases may
be confused by the disappearance of
parties as well as witnesses and at
torneys.
Maitre Chenu, the eloquent attor-
ney for the Calmette family in the
Caillaux case, and former chief of
the order of advOcats of the Partisan
bar, says that death certificates are
such an essential element in all le-
gal procedure concerning inheritanc-
es, and there have been already,
and will be so many more, unknown
dead, that the number of probable
tangled estates is incalculable.
For a moment" Maitre Chenu
adds, Judicial life in France is al
most entirely interrupted and will
continue to languish until the end
of hostilities. We don't regret it.
Legal quarrels would seem to us to
be an attack upon the sacred pact
of union that the war has sealed be-
tween all the citizens of France"
The business of civil courts is al
most entirely confined to the Sc
q%uestration of the property of Ger
man and Austrian subjects and the
list, already long. grows every day.
showing that the number establish
ed in business in France was far
underestimated. Instead of the
10000 representations anticipated,
the number may reach nearer 50,-
900.
The practical suspension of court
proceedings gives Maitre Chenu leis-
ure to use his pen, and in the Pa
risian press he is sparing no effort to
defend the justice of the French
cause
Saint Quentin, where the British
troops made a stand that retarded

Never has the city hall square
been SO animated. The coming and
going of motor cars filled with Off

quarters of some of the big guns of
the German army, who are comfort
ably lodged in the elegant villas of
the Champs-Elysees. Every after
noon officers crowd the pastry cooks
establishments, of which the anima-
ton rivals the most popular five
o'clock teas of Paris. Enormous
quantities of tea. chocolate and
cakes are requisitioned daily and
among the habitues none have a bet

is always the center of the most ami

A peculiar situation arose at a
Virginia City restaurant recently, in
which a misunderstanding arose be-
tween the proprietor and a Chinese
boy. The latter, angry at the
treatment accorded him, decided to
get v e and sought to do so by
taking away a portion of the hot
cook stove. The lids were too hot,
however, and when he attempted to
carry them away in a sack they
burned a hole in it and fell to the
floor. attracting the attention of
the proprietor.

BIG STRIKE MADE IN TONOPAH MERGER:
DEVELOPMENTS IN OTHER PROPERTIES

on the 1170 level. The face is
looking very well and it is believed
that ore will soon be encountered.
Manager Kirchen has entered into
a contract with Manager Chandler of
the West End company to treat the
ore in the latter company's mill, and
shipments will commence very soon.
The ore bins are being filled
and the trucks of the West End will
soon be busy hauling the ore. Mr..
Kirchen secured what he considers a
very reasonable rate for treating the
ore, and as the West End company
had ten stamps of their mill which
were not being used, they were able
to make a reasonable rate with prof
it to themselves.
Jim Butler
Work at the Wandering Boy shaft
of the Jim Butler company is now
i'm full swing and both development
and stopping is being steadily prose-
cuted at this point. Only stopping is
in progress on the 500 level, but on
the 700 level there is considerable
Development as we'll as some stopping.
A raise is bling put up from
crosscut 719 on the 700 level of the
Wandering Boy into what is called
the strip" being a piece of ground
between the property of the Tonopah
Mining company and that of the
West End and which is u%ndisputed
territory.
A raise is also being put up from
No. 6 stope to the 600 level, which
will give a chance to mine the ore IN
No. 6 stope as well as to do some de-
velopment work from that point.
Stopping is in progress in two places
On this level.
The west drift on the 600 level
of the Desert Queen shaft is being
driven under a fualt with the object
of getting under an ore body that
lies overhead and from which ore
has been stopped for months. This
ore shoot is over 200 feet long and
is the one from which the first ore
from the Desert Queen was taken.
In the east drift at the 700 level
there has been an improvement in
the grade of the ore during the week
as well as in the width of the ore
body.
Belmont
The report from the Belmont this
week shows a continuation of the
unusually satisfactory conditions
that have resulted from the develop
ment work for the past several
weeks.
There is considerable development
on the FavOrite vein on the 900 lev
ell of the Desert Queen shaft and it
continues to show up in good shape.
There is a full face of very rich ore
in raise 13. The ore in this raise
has heen of very good grade for some
time. In east drift 955 there are two
narrow streaks of good ore that are
sufficiently high grade to sweeten
up the balance and thus make the
whole output of the drift a good mill
product. There is a decided i'm
provement in the values during the
week.
The Goldfield news and weekly tribune. [volume] (Goldfield, Nev.) 1911-1947, 1915-02-06

East drift 500 on the U level or
the Belmont which is prospecting
what is probably the eastern extern
sion of the Occidental vein, cut e v
eral small streaks of good ore dur
ing the week.
The development of the 1000 lev
ell of the Belmont shaft has not been
as productive of good results as US
ual, the lean or low grade places that
are found in every vein at times be-
ing in evidence. In raise 35 on the
Mizpah fault vein the ore is of the
same width as for some time but the
values are lower though it still goes
through the mill at a profit. Raise
3S which has been in pretty good ore
is now showing ore that is quite low
grade but there is a full face.
TOnOpah Ex.
There were few developments out
of the ordinary at the Tonopah Ex-
tension during the week the usual
amount of development having taken
place with the usual results, and
about the usual amount of ore was
taken out in stopping and develop
ment and treated in the company's
mill. &.
There has been some falling off in
the amount of ore treated in the
mill for several weeks, which is due
to shutdowns for temporary repairs,
and to the fact that it has ben found
that the mill is a little short on fill
tering capacity by 40 per cent. 1t is
believed that this, with the minor
repairs already made. will enable the
mill to treat on an average of close
to 270 tons daily.
There weer no bullion shipments
during the week as the increased ca
pacity of the new Rockwell double
chamber melting furnace recently in
stalled. Ices away with the neces-
sity of melting down more than
twice a month.

ment of the utmost importance oc-

up in the south crosscut on the
$50 level, 800 feet from the shaft.
The vein has been gone through for
a distance of eight feet and the foot
wall is not yet exposed.
Only nominal values are found
where the ore was opened up but it
is the opinion of the engineer that
there are good grounds for believing
that further development of the vein
will open up pa yore.
