CAULK CLUB SOCIAL COLUMN.

Now, there isn't reason,
At this time of year and season,
Why this column should slip up
week or two;
But Decoration Day
Was, as you know, a holiday,
And the reporter lost a day, but
that's not new.
The 2Sth Cf May,
Was a ripping sort of day,
When this Caulk Club and the High
School teams crossed bats;
With POstles on the mound,
We came out all safe and sound,
With a score of to ?, so dofl your
hats!
Now. on the aforesaid day,
Which was the 2Sth of May,
The shemales gave the hemale
Caulks a party;
Everything was gold and green,
Even to the cakes and cream
We have named the affair Our
Grand Progressive Party"
There's a sad and gloomy tale
About that pleasant little sail"
That our boys had on the Delaware
Bay and River;
Everytime they wiped the dishes,
They fed the bloomin' fishes,
And the gentle rain from heaven
made them shiver.
There are heroes every day,
In countries far away.
But you ought to've had your eyes
upon our lake;
1t contained both Joe and Scabby,
Fully clothed, but very happy,

new STRIKE MADE
At LUCKY BOY
STEEL GALENA FOUND THAT
RUNS BETTER THAN
$500 A TON

Big strike on the Lucky Boy! This
is the news that thrilled the people
of Hawthorne yesterday morning.
And it is a whale, too, and rich
enough to excite the most cold blood
ed man living, says the Western Me-
vada Miner.
Manager John H.. Miller of the
Lucky Boy Consolidated Mining COM
pany arrived in Nina today noon
from Hawthorne in his auto and
brought along with him a 200-pound
and 50-pound chunk of ore from the
new strike made on Thursday night.
The big chunk is steel galena and
was taken from an 18-inch vein and
runs better than $500 per ton. The
smaller piece is from an 8-inch streak
in the vein, is grey copper and goes
from $17OO to $4,000 per ton in silver
values The ore is by far much
richer than any extracted from the
Hubbard shaft and from which there
was taken nearly million dollars In
ore.
The ore body was struck Thurs
day evening in drift being run west
from the tunnel, the ore vein being
18 inches in width and the occurrence
being white lime spar, which has char
acterized the Lucky Boy ore. Yester-
I day. IS cars of ore had been broken
hauled out of the 6OOO-foot tunnel and
piled on the dumps for shipment.
While the cars in use are the regu-
lation 200O-pound cars, the ore is so
Tonopah daily bonanza. [volume] (Tonopah, Nev.) 1906-1929, 1915-05-11

dense and heavy that cars Of ore
being taken out are averaging 5000
pounds to the car. UP to IL o'clock
today the shift on duty had broken
down, extracted and piled on the
dumps IL cars Of ore and half shift
still left to make record breaking
ore extraction.
Mr.. Miller states that the ore body,
which was cut in the drift at tunnel
level, is both going downward and
upward, showing pretty conclusively
that it is the main lead Of the Hub
bard shaft to reach which the
company drove the 6OOO-foot tunnel.
Mr.. Miller feels very jubilant over
the successful outcome Of this stu
pendous piece of what looked like, TO
the more. timid at the time, hazard
GUS mining.
Not only Hawthorne but the whole
of Mineral county can afford to re-
joice over Eide rich strike, for 1t will
give to the mi es of this county such
stimulus a. hey have not known
since 1906 and the early part OF
1907. Coming as it does at this time
it takes on permanency that was
not known in the boom days. 1t puts
Mineral county before the mining
world in the full glare of the calcium
light, and will cause the investing
public to turn to other mining prop
critics in this county.

KING ALLIGATOR is DEAD
Porker's Leg Tied to a Tree Lures
Wary Old Beast to His
Death.

Atlanta, Ga.-The king alligator OF
Georgia has been killed at Hutchin-
sons pond at Abel by M. L. Crowley,
after the beast had eluded hunters for
twenty-five years. The alligator meas
ured ten feet four inches and had thir-
ty-seven notches on its tail, which
shows that 1t was thirty-seven years
old.
Many have been the attempts to kill
the sly old creature, but always until
now it has escaped the bullets aimed
at it, and has scuttled safely back to
its cave It was the gators appetite
for hogs that proved its undoing.
Mr., Crowley, who for twenty-five
years has been hunting this beast, tied
the leg of porker to a tree near
Hutchinson's pond, and hid himself.
The wary old gator slid out of the
water, through a clump of bushes, and
was just reaching for the bait when
Mr.. Crowley fired. The bullet took the
beast in vital spot and killed it in
stantly.

Lawrence, Kan.-The discovery that

food may result in making it valu-
able industrial product for the
semi-arid regions of Kansas, accord
ing to Prof. e. H. s. Bailey, the Uni

Laboratory Investigations showed
that this weed, now growing abun-

Kansas, Colorado, Texas and New

an edible oil is extracted that may
take the place of olive or cottonseed
oil.
The press cake from the oil Is also
