@RATTLtSNAKE HELPS
DREAMER FIND MINE
POVERTY -STRIKEN TEAMSTBR
PRODUCES LATEST TALE
OF GOLD STRIKE

Little did w. E. Noble, a DESERT
teamster, think that when he laid
down a few night ago, that he would
awaken in the morning to find HIM
self a comparatively wealthy man;
his had been a life fraught with
poverty and hard work and he had
been content to pursue the even
tenor of his way day after day
without ever having the possibilities
OF an easy life with plenty of money
placed in his grasp by an acct
dent.
Perched on top of the high seat
CT the heavy freighting wagon, his
mule team was pulling the heavy
load of supplies down through Cali
co Canyon, Nevada, when an omin-
GUS crack in the real and a sudden
lurch brought the outfit to a sharp
stop. An inventory followed: de-
~veloping the fact that a rear wheel
had crumpledo up under the strain.
Turning put the mules, he prepar-
cd for a nights rest for the shades
OF evening were upon him. Build
ing a fire and curling up, he fell
asleep. 1t was close to midnight
when his eyes opened, for he, like
many other sleeping mortals, scent
ed danger, and he saw a large rat
tlesnake coiled above him with its
head waving angrily to and fro.
Slowly moving his right hand un-
til his fingers closed on the handle
OF his revolver, he drew the wea-
pom and took a quick shot at the
waving head of the reptile. The
shot clipped the head of the snake
clean off, and Noble arose in a
cold sweat to see the body gyrat-
ing in it's last commissions.
A strange CLINT on the wall of rock
confronting him caught his eye,
and a saw a piece of rock, broken
off by the bullet and the crumpled-
up piece of lead imbedded in the
face Of it. A close scrutiny showed
him that he had uncovered a ricn
vein of gold and silver.
Marking the claim in every a
: Noble repaired his wagon the next
| morning and had the piece of rock
assayed. The result showed that
his strike ran $50 gold and 900
ounces of silver to the ton, and
he and many others made a mad
rush for the scene and took up more
claims. Noble now is a rich man,
having sold his claims for $4,000
to a party of capitalists, and left
for home in the east. He hal
freighted through the region for
many years passing within a few
feet every trip of the ledge that now
has made him rich.-Elko FREQ

PROMINENT RENO

WIDOW OF DIR. o. Il. TOMBSTONE
TAKES ONE CHILD WITH
HER

Dependency owe the death of
her husband on November 8 caused
Mrs. o. p. tombstone, wife of h
late DR.. o. p. tombstone, to take
her own life after chlorOforming her
three children, one of whom is dead.
The act was committed at the
family home, S21 North Center

since the death of her husband, went
to the house to begin her morn
ing's work. Mrs. tombstone, with
her five months old baby clasped in
her arms and her ~six-year-old son,
Eric, lying by her side, were found
but the two children were still liv-
ing. The other son, Thorward, aged
five, was in bed in another room
dead with his head covered with
blankets.
A bottle, partly filled with chloro-
form, was found near the mothers
bed.
The two living children were TAX
en- to Mrs. Robinson's home. They
are now put of danger.
Notes left by Mrs. tombstone show
that the act had been ~premediated
for several days. One, dated Satur-
day, was left with a strong box and
directed that the box be opened by
Attorney M. B.. Moore in case the
arrival of Mrs. Martin f. Miles of
Boulder, Colo. was delayed. Anoth-
er note directed Attorney Moore to
wire to Mrs. Miles at once requesting
her to come to Reno and take

on his arrival in Tonopih, which IS
expected to be within the near fu-
ture.
The Midway Consolidated is now
engaged in sinking a winze from
the 800-foot level from the west
drift, and as it is only stripping the
vein as it goes down, it is not
known definitely how big the ledge
is. In fact the eastern side of the
mine, a raise has been started from
the drift from the main south cross
cut and is now up about So feet.
This work is all in quartz. with
occasional spots of good ore, the
bulk of it being of rather low
grade. Plenty of air has been OBJ
tanned since connections were made
with the shaft at the 80O-foot level
station; consequently, operations are
being pushed much faster than was
possible formerly.

Letson Ballet, engineer for the
Buckeye-Belmont Mining company,
has returned to Tonopah after MAX
ing a visit of inspection to The
Chips Creek mine in California.
He reports that the tunnel is In
800 feet and is making good pro-
81 ess daily. This will be the ma
working tunnel and will serve to
drain the gravel channel of the En-
pire Plumas and probably the Hell
Ter property above.
1t is being laid with %16-pound
rails and a ditch for the water runs
along side the track, to the sluce
boxes at the mouth of the tunnel
The channel is of the tertiary
period and has been cut by the
Feather river further up the can
yon, where millions were extract
cd in former years. About $4,000
has been taken out this year.
Considerable activity is benz
manifested at the Monarch Pittsb"rs
property. where development is be
