M|SHAP CAUSES
PARTY TO SPEND
NIGHT ON DESERT
berg Families, Out Riding, Have
Narrowing Experience
AUTO RESCUE PARTIES
FINALLY FIND THEM
Located on Cactus Springs Road.
Thirty-five Miles East of
Town

In consequence of an automobile
mishap, Mr.. and Mrs. j. o. Walther
and their two children and Mr.. and
Mre. NJ. H. Dannenberg spent Sun
day night around a camp fire on
the desert. Their failure to return to
town was noted next morning and
automobile searching parties left in
all directions from Goldfeld about
9 O'Clock. The unfortunate auto
lists were found at 1880 Monday
morning on the Cactus Springs road,
thirty-five miles east of Goldfeld, by
Charles H. Reimer, A. H. Petit,
Thomas Dunn and Isaac Bair, travel
ing in two machines. Aside from
sharp hunger, the members of the
party suffered no ill effects from
their narrowing experience.
The members of the party, travel
ing in Mr.. Walther's machine, left
Goldfield for a pleasure ride about
l O'Clock yesterday afternoon. All
went we'll until about 5:45 O'Clock
yesterday afternoon, when the leath-
er surface of the clutch of the ma
chine burned out and Mr.. Walther
was unable to get the car to move
farther. He and Mr.. Dannenberg
gathered sagebrush and built a fire,
and the members of the entire party
made themselves as comfortable as
possible for the night. AS they
took no lunch along, they suffered
pangs of hunger. To quench their
thirst they drank water from the
radiator of the automobile.
At the break of day or Monday
Mr.. Walther started to walk to Gold
field for help. When at a point
about six miles from town he was
met by Messrs. Reimer and PETIT,
closely followed by Messrs. Dunn
and Bair. After picking up Mr..
Walther, the two parties of rescu-
ers continued on to the scene of the
mishap. Mr.. Dunn brought the
members of the Walther party to
town, while Messrs. Reimer, Bair
and Petit volunteered to bring the
disabled car to camp with the aid of
Mr.. Reimer's car.

OUTLOOK
At CAMP P|0CHE
PROSPECT AT EARLY
DATE

Phoebe mines shipped to the Salt
Lake valley smelters during the past
week a total of 81 cars of ore esti-
mated at $3.50 tons, valued at $780,
900. OF this tonnage the Prince
Consolidated forwarded So carloads
and the Amalgamated Phoebe two.
This is compared with So ar for
the preceding week.
According to the Phoebe Record,
the year 1915 has opened very aus.
piciously for Phoebe. The outlook
for the future has not been so bright
as it is today in many years. The
mines which have been in operation
during the past year were W in
better condition for great produc-
ton, and this fact is emphasized by
the announcement that at least two
and possibly three milling plants
will be erected during the year.
Recent developments in the Ray
mond and Ely properties under
lease to the Yuba Leasing & Devel-
opment company have been such as
to encourage the management to
take immediate steps toward the
construction of at least a 25-ton ca
pacity plant.
The proposed Consolidated Mining
& Smelling company is the third
company in line for mill construc-
ton. The management is working
on plans with this object in view,
and it would be a safe guess to say
that the company will begin con-
struction before the close of the
present year. The Prince company
is at the present time the largest
producer of the Phoebe district, and
the great bulk of the shipments of
1914 from this camp originated
from the Prince mine.
The total shipments from Phoebe
during the year 1914 aggregated
approximately 1900 carloads.
The prospects Of an early adjust
ment of the Daly-Bristol company's
affairs-or rather the %disposing of
the properties of the company
through a receiver sale-which is to
occur on January IA is another
good omen.
The Nevada-Des MOines Mining
company is constructing a building
over the steam boiler plant Install
ed a few years ago.

IN JUSTICE COURT.

Earl Applegate was tried before
Judge Hender, last Saturday evening
on the charge of beating board bill
and also for passing fraudulent
checks Sheriff Goad went to Ala
mosa to get Applegate. The charge
of beating board bill was preferred
by Claude Loser and it seems that
Davis & Chandler cashed a check
given by Applegate for which there
were no funds in the bank. The
prisoner plead guilty to both charges
was given 20 days in the county Jail
on the board charge and bound over
to the District court on the check
charge. Before he was arrested in
Alamosa, however, Applegate mailed
money order to cover the amount
given in the check and it is very
probable that he will not be prose-
cuted under the latter charge.
Herbert Bell, who has been asso-
ciated with Applegate and who left
Monte Vista with him, was appre-
hended at Salida and was also found
guilty of having left board bill at
Losers and was committed to the
county Jail for II days.
