In the Sara V. Gramm collection o.
scientific and sociological works which
will shortly be installed in the public
library, are many books which will APP
peal to women. Housekeeping being
one of the sciences which is now much
written about. there are many books
relating to it. Books of this nature
will be generously represented. A
number of books relating to child
study and the problem of the boy and
girl are included in the list. Books
relating to the feminist movement are
listed as sociological and number OF
these have been selected. One book
which the average woman will enjoy
is book giving a description Of prec-
Ious stones, and the jewelry Of many
races and ages. 1t is handsomely H.
Illustrated in colored plates and 10 n
book seldom found in private library.
There will also be books on oriental
rugs, dress making, crocheting, AMI
others Of that nature. II the. patrons
of the public library will take the
pains to examine the collection when
It is installed. they will. find many
books to interest them. While some
Of the collection will OF necessity b.
technical, the policy is to select books
to meet the present day needs of the
average reader, books that are read
able rather than simply profound.

INSPECTION OF
MINE NEAR NINA

One of the most important visits
of mining men made, so far as it
concerns Nina and vicinity, was that
of J. E. Spur, the widely known
g%eologist and mining engineer and
w. H. Blackburn. of the Tonopah
Mining company, who were here the
first of the week, making an exam
ination of the Dunlap mine, the prep
erty of the Nevada Copper company,
Of which the Tonopah Mining COM
pany holds a controlling interest. The
principal minority stockholders are
G.. F. Thompson of Nina Robert
Stewart of Sodaville; w. d Douglass
of Tonopah ad Richards of Goldfeld,
anl a few others.
The Dunlap mine is nine miles east
OF Nina on the asst slope of Pilot
Peak. A tunnel has been run on the
property for a distance of over 1,400
feet and another for about 400 feet.
The outcrop of copper ore on the
surface is between 900 and 700 feet
in width and conservative mining en-
gineers estimate that there is a tom
mage in sight of $4,000 tons of 3 IL
per cent copper ore, which also car
ries some values in gold and silver.
The property is equipped with a good
building, gasoline engines, air COM
pressors and machine drills.
Messrs. Spur and Blackburn
were making an examination of the
property in the interest of the Touo-
pah Mining company with a view of
resuming operations on an extensive
scale. We understand that a part Of
the operation of the property will be
the construction and installation OF Il
5O-ton teaching plant on the ground
as a preliminary step to treat the ore
economically and take care of the
output at the first. adding to the ca
pacity of the plant according as the
output of ore demands. If the To
nopah Mining company decides to
carry out their plans at the Dunlap
it will mean the biggest boost for
Nina that this section has had in
4 long time.
While here Messrs Spur and
Blackburn visited and inspected the
Taft property, owned by B. F. Baker
and G. F. Thompson. Mr.. Spur De
ing favorably impressed with the
showings on the property, will re-
turn and make a more thorough ex-
animation with a view of taking over
the holdings-Western Nevada

the part of the Bulgarians against

OLD COAL MINES
BEING RE0PENED

MANCHESTER, England, July Is.
An interesting feature of the war
time demand for coal is that it has
brought about the reopening of hun
dreds of derelict mines in the remote
valleys of the Pennine range, a long
line of hills that stretches from the
vicinity of Manchester straight north
to the Scottish border. The entire
region lies above immense fields of
coal, but difficulties of transpOrta-
ton and lack of capital have hereto
opment.
AS the great coal districts of south
err Lancashire and Yorkshire be-
come depleted, more attention must
lie paid to these upland deposits, and
TIE problem of reaching them with
transportation facilities must be met.
At present there is no railway which
reaches within twenty miles of the
most accessible fields.
Wartime prices, however, have
turned attention to these old mines,
and in a primitive way the owners
and tenants have begun fecking out
a few hundred tons here and there
and marketing it at various points
which can be reached by horse trans
port. The mines are worked in old
time fashion by a few GOLFERS each.
There is little attempt at timbering,
and the levels are constructed to
drain naturally. The seams are ap-
proximately a yard in thickness and
as they pass level into the moors are
easily workable. Some of the mines
we're opened up many generations
ago and later abandoned; a few have
been worked in half-hearted fashion
until galleries a couple of miles long
have been cut. Old church records,
old parchments and immortal deeds
are full of illusions to these depos-
its. The tenants of one manor were
bound to attend twice in each year
at certain pits with ponies and pan
niers to carry fuel to the hall or
castle. Ample refreshment for man
and beast was provided by the lord
VI Tie ulduOT. LII JULIET the
teI.ants were bound to give certain
days of labor to mining. In recogni-
ton of such services the tenants were
universally permitted to make free
use of their lordship's coal mine for
their W use. or for sale provided a
certain small royalty was paid to
my lords agents.
The cheapness with which the coal
may be mined is indicated by the
fact that at one pit above Wensleys-
dale, for example, it is sold at the
pit mouth at 81 a ton. but so severe
is the climb to the mine that 500
pounds is a good horse load. The
coal is of fair household quality. No
where in the entire region has any
n attempted to develop the prop
erty by sinking a shaft in search of
those deeper deposits which the con-
figuration of the country seems to
promise.

FIRST OF BULGARIAN
PATRIOTS PASSES away

SOFIA, July I'm the recent
death of Bishop Joseph, there
passed away n of the first Bull,
garian patriots. His whole career
was devoted to bringing the Bulgar.
ian nation together under one polit.
ical head, as well as under one
church.
Lazar Yovcheff was born in the
Bulgarian town of Kalofer in 1910,
where his ability was early recog-
nized. Bulgaria was then under
Turkish domination. This led Yov-
chef, after taking the degree of doc
tor of laws at the Sorbonne in Par
is, to go to Constantinople where
he first tried to get a political Job.
Meanwhile his writings had attract
ed the attention of the Greek pa
triarch. AS the result, he was in
1872 induced to take holy orders. He
did so under the ecclesiastical name
of Joseph. Four years later, he was
consecrated bishop of Loftsha. In
1877 he was made the head of the
Bulgarian church.
During the Russo-Turkish war of
1877. and later during the various
minor revolutions against Turkey,
Joseph faced a trying position as
much of his spiritual dominion was
in Turkey. The liberation of Bull
garia from direct Turkish control
with the signing of peace between
Russia ad Turkey, left the Bull
garian schools in the hands of the

Jack Creek saloon keeper, shot by
Ramon Yraquem, a gambler, after a
quarrel in which Pitaro demanded
that Yraquem make good worthless
checks he had issued for a gambling
debt, a charge of murder was lodged
against Yraquem, who is now in
carcerated in the Elko county jail
