Zadig Issuing Same Old Dope

The Bonanza says persistent ru-
mors are af1oat on the street that
Rescue-Eula has an ore body. The
Bonanza made inquiry from official
sources and obtained this statement:
"The conditions in Rescue-Eula are
very favorable, but there is nothing
tangible to give out at this time"
Just the same old dope that is
regularly circulated by Zadig and
his crowd Of wolves. If Rescue did
hit a big body of ore outsiders would
know nothing of it till the Zadig out
fit bought all the stock in they could.
If any money is to be made in the

BunkO Game Didn't Work

w. T. Fisher worked an old-time
advertising dodge in Tonopah re-
Gently, but he didn't get away with
it. He worked quite a few business
men who would not consider adver-
Using of a legitimate sort in the
columns of a newspaper, but who
fall from all the grafters who come
along. His system was to display a
silk banner, divided into advertising
spaces. These were to be filled with
the names of the business houses and
placed in hotel rooms. Fisher
gathered in the shekels, for he told
the advertisers that he had to pay
the printer in advance and he had to
collect in advance. AS a matter of
fact. he dpi go to a job Office and
asked to have the work done on
credit, but was refused. Instead of
paying for the work with the money
he had collected, Fisher left town.
He was located in Reno by Chief
Evans who left Monday to bring him
back for rial.-Tonopah Bonanza.

Three Million Unemployed

The results of an official investiga-
ton just published by the U. S. Blu
rea of Labor Statistics made in New
York City during the month of Feb
ruary, shows that approximately
398, 900 workers, or 1872 per cent of
all wage earners in the city were
then out of work.
What this condition means to the
country at large can be seer by APP
plying the percentage to the work
ers of the country as a whole. Ac-
cording to the United States census
there were in 1910 in the United
States 3S. 167. 1886 persons engaged in
gainful occupations. Taking the Bu-
reau of Labor Statistics figure of
1872 per cent and assuming that the
same condition of unemployment ex-
listed in other parts of the country
as existed in New York, then there
were more than six million men, wo-
men and children out of work.

NEW REDUCTION METHODS
Salt Lake Mining Review: The

Salt Lake Mining Review: Inc
new processes introduced, Of late,
in the treatment of ores, are al
most revolutionary in their e
suits, and are rapidly d~isplacing
methods which, until very recent
", we're considered thoroughly
modern and strictly up-to-date.
Take the oil 1otation process,
for instance, now being introduced
in so many of our mining camps,
and which is making it possible
to successfully mill certain char
acters of ore which, hardly more
than two years ago, conld not be
handled by any known process at
a profit and which, added to the
milling practice of dividend-pay-
ing companies, permit of q great
er saving than aver before and at
an operating expense so small as
to be nearly negligible. There is
hardly a type of low-grade sui
phide r but can be successfully
and economically treated by the
oil fotation process, and its 8
in the reduction of milling ore
that could be handled at a small
profit by old but approved meth
DDS is resulting in a higher saw
ing and a correspondingly great
er net profit. And the beauty of
this process lies in its simplicity,
the small amount of equipment
required in its utilization, and its
adaptability to SO many varieties
of ore.
Many improvements have been
made of late, also, in the treat
ment of gold and silver ores and
tailings by the cyanide process,
and to such an extent that a great
saving of time and expense is be-
ing recorded wherever these i'm
proved methods are being ap-
piled, while several new crushing
devices have enabled the mill op-
orator to get through a much
larger tonnage at a greatly re-
duced price.
AS a result of these improve
ments in reduction methods and
the advance made in milling ma
chinery, there is hardly a pro-
Quoting district in the West but
that should be able to treat its
ore at a handsome profit, even
though it be low in grade.

AUSTRALIA SUFFERS DROUGHT
Rivers Are Beds of Dust-Millions o.
Sheep Have Perished

Sheep and cattle are commencing
to die in numbers in Australia and
they will continue to die for many
months at an alarming rate, accord
ing to Elwood Mead, for eight years
chairman of the State rivers and
water supply commission of Victoria,
who returned to California on the
Sonoma with his family. says the San
Francisco Chronicle. There has
been n o growing rain in Australia for
Is months he says, with the excep-
ton of the small amounts near the
coast, and the cost of feed is 81 great
that it is not profitable to try to save
the stock.
above the Darling, the hurry
river is nothing but a bed of dust fol
all of 300 miles," said Mead when he
arrived here. Last season people
who had irrigated land leased it fol
$50 an acre to feed stock, but with
the lack of rain and further drying
up of the rivers they could not gel
water for irrigation.
alfalfa hay is selling in the coast
cities for $50 a ton and the interior
as high as SIS. so it is almost i'm
possible to get feed for stock. Grair
is, of course. as high in proportion.
This is the worst drought in the
history of Australia. In 1902 over
19, 200, 900 sheep died from lack OF
water, and there will be severa
times that number perish during the
present dry spell, it seems"
At present several steamers are
rushing hay and grain to Australia
from San Francisco and other coas'
ports and a large number of vessels
are under charter to load fodder fol-
the southern continent. 1t is not be
lieved by those conversant with con.
ditions in Australia that this fodder
will be more than a drop in the
bucket of need.

BERT RICKETTS, KILLED NEAR elkO

cousin of A. E Porch of Eureka Fa
tally Hurt BY Overturning Auto Truck
Elko Free Press, June /: Bert
Ricketts,, who has been driving the
Hylton & Hanna truck between Elko
and Hylton, was killed at an early
hour this morning by the truck run
ming off the road into Smith creek,
pinning the driver underneath the
seat, in the water.
He left Hylton at 8 o'clock this
morning, intending to make a round
trip. and carried a light load of wool.
The accident occurred about IL miles
south of town, a short distance from
the farm house of Conrad Smith,
who lives on the old Ouderkirk place.
Mr.. Smith and wife saw the truck as
it came over the top of the hill about
a half mile south of his place. and
were waiting for it to pass the house.
In probably a half an hour. as it
failed to show up, he thought that
the driver was having some trouble,
and started to walk up the road to
offer his assistance. He found the
truck in the bed of the stream. bot
tom side up, and saw that Ricketts,
was dead, pinned down under the
water by the seat. He hurried to a
telephone and informed Mr.. Hanna
of the accident, who Immediately
hurried out in his car, and without
loss of time succeeded in getting the
driver out, but life was extinct.
The sheriff's office was notified and
together with Judge Castle, Sheriff
Harris drove to the Gene. By the
time he arrived they had pulled the
truck out of the stream onto the
road.
Judge Castle held the coroner's
inquest on his arrival, and a verdict
of accidental drowning was found,
and the body was brought to town
and taken to the undertaking parlors.
From the facts brought out at the
inquest it was believed that the
driver had fallen asleep, as when the
car came over the top of the hill the
tracks showed that instead of follow
ing the curve of the road it kept a
straight course to the bank of the
creek which parallels the road at this
point, the machine falling over the
eightfoot bank to the bottom. turn
ing over and pinning the driver by
the arm under the water which was
about 16 inches deep. 1t was found
that one arm was broken.
The deceased has been a resident
of Elko for many years and of late
has been identified with the different
garages, having taken charge of the
Hylton & Hanna truck a short time
ago. He was married and had been
running the Club lodging house on
the corner of Fifth and Idaho streets.
His father, who lives in California.
has been notified, as has his wife's
mother, Mrs. William Cox, who lives
in Diamond Valley.
/
The news of Mr.. Ricketts, death
was learned here Tuesday from a tel
egram received by Bale & Russell
from the Simcox garage at Elko, or
dering an auto sent to the William
Cox ranch in Diamond Valley to take
Mrs. Ricketts, parents, Mr.. and Mrs.
William Cox, to Elko. Rich Hooper
went down with a a and took Mr..
and Mrs. Cox and their son, George,
to Elko. A. E. Porch of Eureka,
who is a cousin of Mr.. Ricketts,, sent
another car out to Antelope Valley
for Ollie Cox, Mrs. Ricketts, brother,
who came in the next morning and
continued on to Elko by auto.
