ACTIVITY AMONG
The LEASERS


ing from Mono Lake, that Ross
Thompson and his associates have
made rich strike on their property
in that vicinity upon which they have
lease and bond. The property was
formerly known as the Hammond
mine.
O. B. Grose, A. f. Mcneil and
Charles H. Walker, well-known min
ers in this district, have AIKEN lease
on the New Yerington property,
which is east of the town. This prop
erty has been quite extensively ex-
plotted in the past and has shown
good indications of ore deposits. The
leasers mentioned are thoroughly ex-
perienced mining men and have sue
cessfully developed number of the
properties in this and other districts.
The indications are that they have a
good deposit to work upon.
Mr. A. V. Hart, who has leased the
Montana Y erington, has purchased
Is h. p. hoist and other machinery
from O. HI. Some and is installing the
same on the rev lease this week
William Dexheimer and the Dickey
Brothers have taken lease on the
Empire-Nevada claims just west of
Yerington Station. Their block in
cludes the main shaft of the old Smith
lease from which the Smith Brothers,
two or three years ago, took ont sew
eral thousand dollars worth of ore.
"Dex" and the Dickeys are working
in the main shaft and, as they are ex
pert miners, undoubtedly will develop
a further and profitable ledge of ore.
Much of the ore taken from this prop
erty has been high-grade and prob
ably the property would have been.
continually worked had it not been for
the low price of copper and the shut
ting down of the smelter.
Jim Adams and Frank Duffy, leas-
ers on the Empire-Nevada property,
smelter close to the Yerington Sta
ton. We understand that they have a
carload of very rich ore ready to be
shipped to the Hazen Sampler.
Dan Pennington is sinking a dou-
Die compartment shaft on an old drill
hole made year or SO ago on the
Empire Nevada He has sunk sixty
feet and will have to go about twenty
five feet further to reach the very rich
ledge discovered at the time the
ground was explored as mentioned
above.
/ Walter Taubert and associates,
working on the Empire Nevada
ground, have sunk shaft sixty feet
in about months time and have gone
through ledge of very rich cuprite
ore six to eight feet on which they in
tend to drift and expect to make
shipment within very few days.
Charles Oberg, also well-known in
this district, has block of ground on
the Empire Nevada and is about to
ship carload of 10 to IS per cent ore.
He has become associated with Alex
McCloud, who for some time previous
to the closing down of the Mason
Valley mine, was shift boss there.
Both of these men being expert and
experienced miners there is little
doubt but that they will successfully
develop the property covered by the
lease.

some benefit, practical and sub

are tributes, not donations, to the

LAW THAT THE SEAMEN WANT
FINALLY GETS OVER

FINALLY GE y OVER
Washington, March 5.-After more
than two years agitation for safety
at sea, following the Titanic disaster,
and after more than 20 years of fight
ing by the Sailors Union for better
working conditions, there was on the
statute books today, as a sequel to
Presidents Wilson's signature of the
seamen's bill at the windup of con-
gress, law designed to meet both
demands.
Taking the safety at sea feature
first, the LaFoIIette bill, as amended,
provides that all ocean-going ships
must have lifeboats and RATS suffi-
cient to accommodate all on board
IS per cent boats and 25 per cent
RATS. Exception was made for coast
wies ships not going more than 20
nautical miles from short, during the
summer vacation season from May
Is to Sept. Is, when 35 per cent
boats and 35 per cent Tafts-70 per
altogether will be sufficient .
For the great lakes, on routes
more than three miles off shore at
any point, there must be Hfeboats
and RATS for all, except from May Is
to Sept. Is, when 20 per cent Of boats
and 80 per cent of RATS will be suffi-
cient. For boats plying within the
three-mile limit or over waters not
deep enough to submerge the decks
should the steamer sink, regulations
as to boats and RATS were left to the
board of supervising inspectors of
the commerce department
In meeting the sailors demands
the bill was believed by the state de-
partment to violate a number of ex-
listing treaties. 1t provides that sea-
men on either American or foreign
vessels in American ports may, pro-
viding they do not make two de- |
mands within five days, get half the |
wages due TENN,

THREE YEARS BEHIND THE GUNS.
BY l. G. /.

It was on a Sunday morning in
early November we cast anchor in
beautiful Toxic Bay.
When we LETT Hawaii. every last
mothers son OF US was IN the fourth
conduct class; but after the fire the
captain wiped OF the slate and put US
al In the first class.
Ship conduct IS rased il classes.
There are:
A Star Class: That means any
thing you ask for; but you have to

First Class entities you to draw all
your pay every month. and to enjoy
all the shore-leaye your watch is en-
titled to.
The Second Class draw half pay,
and are restricted to the ship Tor
twenty-five days.
The Third Class get shore leave on
" every forty-fve days and draw one
third their pay.
The Fourth Class means on the
ship for three months with only one
quarter Of your pay which barely
covers mess money and tobacco.
Every man on ship must so ashore at
least once n three months.
When you have served your time
IN the fourth class, you do not jump
20 the first. but. by slow degrees. back
through the intervening classes; thus
Il ever you get back 10 Glass One. you
viii have spent l57 days in accom-
plish!ng it.
Today was the first had ever felt
like whistling since that day ran
away. There is a sequel to my whis-
tie. An officer silenced me and ]
merely stood looking into the bay.
The officer could not stand that, SO
he asked:
"What are you doilg:"
Nothing. sir"

''Eo, sir"

well, well, well. this IS sad state
Of aEairs: a mano.war' snan with
nothing to do. Count the sails on the
bay, and when you get through, come
and report to me how many there
aIe!"
Grumbling under my breath, stood
looking over the hammock netting.
Finally saw a mail boat coming, and
then Just as the sanpan came along
side, ! walked, deterentially. up TO
the oficer-of.the.deck, saluted him,
and said:
There are seven thousand and
eleven, sir"
He could not question the state
ment-for neither he nor any other
man living could any more count those
gannpan sails than he could count the
stars IN the Milky Way!

presents It TO him; sometimes he only
tastes, but in the colder climate the
bowl is generally drained. This is
