LAMENTS FATE OF CODE
Member of Commission that Drew
School Bill Declares Personal
Matters Have Entered.
SECTION AGAINST sECTIol
CFrom a staff Correspondent.

CFrom staff Correspondent
LINCOLN. Neb., Feb. 15.-tSpecial.)-
False reports circulated over the state
purposely to defeat remedial school legis-
lation" are charged by William Richie,
jr., member of the school code commits
sion, which prepared Senate File No. 1O7.
as being responsible for the defeat Of the
bill and he says he has the proof to show
for 1t. In speaking of the proposition to-
day, Mr.. Richie said
Some self-seeking personal interest has
diligently circulated false reports over the
state purposely to defeat remedial school
legislation l have proof of this, and
know that the prejudices aroused by this
pernicious campaign have arrayed the
various parts of the state against each
Dther.
Nebraska rural schools are still operat-
ms under the laws copied from Ohio in
1859 Ohio has twice since then changed
Its system, but Nebraska is still operat-
Ing under the old laws, and in the latest
National School Survey is ranked twenty
nth in efficiency, economy and equality
OF its schools.
There are various measures before the
legislature which, II enacted into laws
would remedy. these conditions. The
school code bill was introduced In order
that the legislature might, after a care
full study, enact laws which would ma
terially benefit all sections of the state
For eastern Nebraska there Is the con-
solidated grade and high school measure;
for central Nebraska there is the rural
high school measure; for western Ne
braska there is the county unit
OF taxation which will effect an equal
distribution of the railroad taxes. Ali of
these measures are optional, so that each
may be adopted by the people of the varl-
GUS communities as they will best serve
their interests
Unfortunately, however. 1t seems as
though none of these measures would
pass because one part of the state has
been arrayed against the other. The east.
striving for what will benefit the east, has
been prejudiced against what will benefit
the central and western parts OF the state.
Central and western Nebraska have been
,crrayed against measures which will
sSe1cfit the east.

ARMLESS AND LEGLESS
MAN is BIG MARVEL

VIENNA, Aug. 15--Rudolph Guer-
.telschmied, an Austrian who in
1907 lost both arms and both legs
in Spokane, Wash. through contact
with a high current electric wire. is
now in Vienna and is being taken
through the various hospitals where
war cripples are in order to demon
strate to them the S of artificial
limbs and to cheer them up in gen.
eral.
Guertelschmfed was able to walk
five days after his artificial legs had
been supplied him. and today is able
to walk between 10 and IL miles
a day without relying upon a cane.
He can ride a tricycle. and even climb
a ladder, and does almost everything
that a person with legs can do.
He is quite as clever with the
use of his hands and eats with knife
and fork, writes and carries pack
ages and parcels seemingly with no
difficulty. He is married and is en-
gagged as a tobacco worker. The val
lessened his earning capacity, and
so he has become, 81 to speak, an
instructor in the use OF artificial
limbs to keep his income up to par.

LONE MOUNTAIN STRIKE
CAUSES ENTHUSIASM

Lone Mountain seems destined to
have a great future and if the pres
ent outlook is a good criterion, it
will be n of the producers in this
section before very long. Not loug
ago Herb Sproule, Harry and George
Bruce took claims in the Lone
Mountain district and they have kept
the result of their find to them
selves. not wishing to boast about
having made a strike until they
knew that there was something to
talk about, so they waited until they
could have their ore assayed.
The result of their first two ASSAYS
has been received and in talking to
a reporter today, they gave in a
plain matter of fact way, the details
of what the two assays ran. The
ores assayed were from practically
the grass roots and one of them runs
$3S to the ton, both being lead and
silver, the other assay runs 1888 to
the ton.-Elko Free Press.

ACCIDENT CAUSES DEATH
OF YOUNG MANHATTAN BOY

While enroute to Table mountain
Tuesday on a hunting and fishing
trip with three companions of his
own age, Charles Humphrey, a IA
year-old youth of Manhattan, fell
from the wagon in which they were
making the journey and received
such injuries that he died several
hours later. The accident occurred
about two miles north of Belmont.
In some inexplicable manner, young
Humphrey tumbled from the front
seat of the wagon, falling beneath
the wheels, which passed over his
stomach. Protesting that he was
not hurt badly the lad insisted,
when the boys advised a return to
Manhattan for medical treatment,
that the journey be resumed. He
confidently assured his friends that
he would be all right in a little
while. The boys proceeded, MAX
ing their camp for the night at Com
bination Springs. There the in
worse and ne died at midnight, his
companions making Intellectual eff
forts to prolong his life while one of
their number saddled a horse and
rode to Belmont to summon medi-
cal aid from Manhattan by tele-
phone. An automobile was immedi-
ately despatched from that town, but
the unfortunate lad died before as
sistance could arrive. The body
was taken to Manhattan, where flu
neral services were conducted today.
He is the son of Mr.. and Mrs.
Charles Humphrey, residents of
Manhattan for many years.

SHOWINGS
IN NORTH HUMBOLDT

Eugene Petit of Jungo, interested
in mining and other development
projects in that vicinity, was in Win
nemucca a couple of days this week.
He is a firm believer in the mine
making opportunities of the country
surrounding Jungo. His experience
and examinations of the mine fea-
lures of northern Humboldt causes
him to be a firm believer in the pos
sibilities in this section in which he
is now operating.
1T is not speculative" said Mr..
Petit. Ito estimate what the coun-
try including the Eugene range, Pile
Forest, Black Rock, Jungo Point and
Antelope Springs will eventually
show under further development. At
present. with very limited develop
ment, this mine-making region
shows largely to the good and is a
positive evidence of one of the best
mine sections of the world.
For the amount of energy ap-
piled and money expended there has
been sound production and much is
in evidence to prompt the statement
that the mine features of this ter
ritory have not been scratched. In
all directions these important mine
making features are noticeable

RUSH IS ON FOR NEW
QUARTZ DISCOVERY

Half a. dozen or more automobiles,
heavily laden with treasure seekers
departed during the night for a lew
strike that was made at the edge
of Smokey valley. The exact loca-
ton is not yet public knowledge,
but it is said to be between Oar
ragh's Hot Springs and Twin can
yon, about 25 miles from Round
Mountain. A number of machineS
also left this morning and afternoon
and it is reported that the rush Is
on from other towns. The stam-
pede is said to have been caused by
the discovery of a strong ledge or
free gold, running about $50 a or.
Hitherto the ore found in that dis
trict has largely been of a refrac-
tory nature.-Bonanza.

The crosscut has thus far penetrated
vein matter for a distance of 80 feet
without exposing the foot wall. On
the 932 foot level, more than 250
feet westerly from raise 526-A above
the 1917 foot level, gratifying re-
suits are also being obtained in the
work designated to extend the linn
it's of the ore body. Recently an
east drift was started from raise
5O4-E above the south crosscut on
the 932-foot level. 1t is now ex-
posing four. feet of $50 ore. The
west drift from the same raise is ad-
vancing ON three feet Of ore averag-
ing SIS per ton.
Raise 525-A above the north drift
on the 1O17-foot level on the shale
portion of the ore body has gained
a height of about sixteen feet and is
beginning to show values. Excel
lent progress is being made in the
extension of the east crosscut from
the south drift on the 975-fOot lev
ell. 1t has thus far been driven 20
feet. 1t is designed to intercept
that portion of the shale ore body
which has been giving such an ex-
cellent account of itself on the 91S-
foot level. On the 91S-foot level the
east drift on the contact segment of
the ore body is exposing five feet of
$50 ore. Three feet of $50 ore is
being extracted in the extension of
the north drift from the top of raise
524-A above the $50 foot level.
Stopping operations in the ore body
continue to yield highly pleasing re-
suits. Five feet of $113 ore is be-
ing broken down in the stope above
the east drift on the 952 foot level,
while a similar width Of SAL ore is
exposed in the east drift above the
964 foot level. Sinking operations

ker, Henri Rochelle. whose prosecu-
ton for swindling developed into a
bitter political struggle, and was in
cid%entally responsible for the Call

to have returned to France. After
the inquiry by the parliamentary
committee into the circumstances I'M
der which the trial of his case was
POSTPONED, Rochelle, who was hiding
i'm France, was supposed to have
gone to Switzerland. A law was

ed; then it was stated Rochelle
went to Chile where he recently re-
turned to enlist in the French

SALT LAKERS HAVE MUCH
FAITH IN WILLOW CREEK

A new strike in ground previously
worked is evidenced by samples of
ore in the offices of both Ray &
Greenwood and of A. V. Callaghan,
of this city. The ore comes from
the almost surface workings of the
Willow creek property, situated 100
miles south of Ely. New. 1t is a free
milling gold, carrying values in
some instances sensational, but
showing on the whole an average of
than SIS per ton.
The whole question to be deter
mined is the matter of the perman-
.ency and depth of this ore body anu
it is with the purpose of thorough
ly testing this that active develop
ment work has been undertaken.
Both formation and location are
such as to give the utmost en-
couragement to the men who are
backing the work. The option on the
property has been taken by several
well known Salt Lake mining G
including G. N. Lawrence, F. Cowan,
"A. V. Callaghan and Ray and Green
wood.
Should immediate developments
result in the exposing of any con-
siderable body of this high grade
rock, the construction of a mill for
the treatment of the ore will be be
gun without delay.

Meets Sudden End

Stewart Barber, the eight year old
son of Mr.. and Mrs. V. S. Barber
of Reno, was killed recently by d
shot fired by an unknown person.
He died within a few minutes. A
deep mystery surrounds the tragedy.
The unfortunate lad, in company
with his two brothers, was playing
in the back yard. In telling what
he knew of the affair, n of the
brothers said he heard a shot and
saw Stewart grasp his throat. A
close investigation is being made
but no theories have been advanced
by the police.
