DEATH OF KITCHENER

The death by drowning of Lord Kitchener ter minated the earthly career of one of Great Britans biz men of the century No in the war had been as active as fighting military officer as had Kitchener He had seen service the field at various times from his early manhood. and had planned and worked out victory after victory his country in the out of the way places of the world. He had practically unlimit' ed charge of Great Brtains military operations from the beginning of the present war and had added to his other achievements notable results as diplomat He was just setting out another of the combined diplomatic and military trips of which he had made many since the beginning of the war when he was drowned
 Kitcheners dominating characteristic was thorough ness. He was prOdigous worker. and gave close attention to details overlooking nothing in the fOrma- lion of plans It Is claimed for him that his wars have been won before his armies moved.

on Lightning and Toothpicks." He
spoke at length on law, love and
habit as great moral forces. He is an
unusually eloquent and forcible

ST. LOUIS, June 1.-THE Califor-
mia contingent, sixty-five strong, ar
rived yesterday on special train,
full of Western enthusiasm. Hereto
fore California has stormed every
Democratic convention with a carload
of wine for general distribution and
diplomatic purposes, but comes this
year with nary bottle for parched
delegates of other states. California
is not asking prohibition plank. far
be 1t from such. but there is no con-
test this year, so what's the use of
wetting dry whistles that can blow
but a single note?
But the delegates, alternates and
guests did not suffer from drouth.
It's long trip across those Nevada
deserts, but that and prohibition laws
didn't stop the needed amount OF
liquid for such trip.
There is opposition TO Marshall for
Vice President. George Cats of Stock
ton says about half the delegation is
opposed to him. but the California
caucus tonight will further develop
that probably the whole delegation
will swing into line for Marshall, for
all the delegates evince a desire to
do whatever the President wishes, and
the Wilson plan calls for the re-elec-
tion of Marshall.

UTAH PEOPLE TO TREAT
OLD DUMPS AT RYE PATCH

President Lorin Hall and Secretary
Clinton ID. Ray of the Silver Bell &
Alpha Consolidated Mines company
have issued statement to stockhold-
ers relative to physical conditions at
the property at Rye Patch, New. Re-
cent assays made from dumps and
vein ore showed silver ranging from
1882 ounces up to 691.90 and gold
from 40 cents to S1.40 ton. The
company is contemplating the erec-
ton of $4,000 mill. The company
has 100000 shares, of whihc 100000
are in the treasury. A block OF 100,-
900 is being sold to finance the mill
project.
The following is taken from the
statement:
over forty years ago the Silver
Bell and Alpha were two of the noted
silver-gold mines of Nevada. 1t is
estimated that they produced upwards
of $11,000,000 of high grade silver ore,
a vast amount of which was hauled
for 400 miles over the Sierra Nevada
mountains by team, and shipped from
San Francisco to Swansea, Wales, for
treatment. 1t is quite evident that
any ore of moderate value could not
be handled profitably in those days.
therefore 1t will be readily under
stood that there are immense guam
titles of low grade ore left on the
dumps and in the mine.
Extensive sampling and assaying
have shown much of this ore to con-
tain commercial values in silver and
gold; In fact Ii is estimated that at
least 100000 tons of ore running from
five to thirty ounces of silver are
available on the dumps. in the old
slopes, pillars and fills in the mine.
A shaft has been sunk directly
through the old workings and is con-
nected up by drifts and shoots. with
all the available ore in the old work
ings. The bottom OF this shaft fur
thermore has been reached by tun-
mel about 1000 feet in length, through
which all of the ores above referred
to may be conveyed directly into a
mill. where the same can be treated,
including cost of mining and trans
portation at cost OF not to exceed
81 ton. 1t will be easily seen, there
fore. that on a basis of ten ounces OF
silver per ton. for 100000 tons of ore.
deducting the costs as estimated, with
silver at 20 cents an ounce. there
would be net profit of $1,000 900 in
the ores already available for MILL
ing. g."-Herald-Republican.

SUBMARINE PIRATE BIG
THRILLER AT THE NIXON

Mary Boland with Frank Mills and
Willard Mack, in ''The Edge of the
Abyss" will be shown at the Nixon
tomorrow night. Also sgd Chaplin,
with Keystone players, in "A Sub
marine Pirate" keystone comedy in
four parts. Following is a story Of
the plays:
Alma Clayton is a butterfly type of
girl, who is engaged to sort of gild-
ed youth, Neil Webster. Alma goes
with Neil to a banquet, where she
hears a distinguished criminal lawyer
make an eloquent speech. She is
very enthusiastic over Wayne Bur-
roughs, the lawyer, and after short
acquaintance marries him. The reject
ed suitor, Neil, meets Alma after her
marriage and tells her that he is
"eured" of his infatuation, but that
he is ready to respond to any call for
help. Alma gets in a quarrel with
Wayne and he leaves her his mansion
to live in, while he goes to his club.
Alma sends for Neil and the young
man tries to induce her to elope.. A
burglar named Jim Sims breaks into
the Burroughs house anh starts to
tOOh W az AOOtlAs hVA iAN oNto thS
picture of Wayne and recognizes it as
that of the lawyer who had befriend-
ed him. He puts the silver back on
the table. Then Sims hears voices
and steals down to the parlor where
he finds Neil urging Alma to elope.
He makes the woman tie the man Sc
cuely in chair. Then he marches her
upstairs and shows her Wayne's por-
trait. He tells of his regard for
Wayne and persuades the woman of
her mistake in listening TO Neil.
Meanwhile, Neil, still bound to his
chair, manages to get to a phone and
calls up the police. Alma sends them
on wrong clue, giving the burglar a
chance to escape. Neil is beaten up
by plain clothes man as the sup
posed burglar. Alma calls up her hus-
band and he returns to her. There is
complete reconciliation between the
pair. when he admits that he was as
much to blame for their misunder-
standing as she was.
"A Submarine Pirate"
This great film was made with the
cooperation of the u s. navy and
had to be passed upon by Secretary
Daniels himself. The principal scenes
were staged aboard one of the gov
ernment's Pacific Coast submarines
and also aboard battleship.
While a. comedy in character. "a
Submarine Pirate" displays subma-
rine work pictorially in such detailed
fashion as has never before been seen
on the screen, even in the best of the
naval pictures sent over from Europe.
sgd Chaplin, one of the cleverest
members of that family, as a waiter
who dons the costume of an admiral
in the U. S. Navy and with stolen pa
pers takes command of submarine,
is excruciatingly funny.

WINNEMUCCA A
RESIDENCE TOWN

William Blattner bought the town
residence off w. Pearce last night.
Mr.. Blattner has lived in Paradise
Valley for many years. but recently
he sold his ranch there and now he
and his family have come to Winnie
mucca to live, where the children may
have the advantages offered by the
excellent schools of this place.
The home he has bought is one of
the pretty homes of the town-a mod
ern brick house on West Second
street
Mr. Blattner came to town several
days ago to look for a location, and
thought at first of building: but being
in a hurry to move and get settled,
he decided to buy a home all ready
to move into. He and his family spent
yesterday looking at a number of
places and finally decided on the
Pearce property. The price paid is
said to have been $500.
Winnemucca Is becoming more and
more a favorite residence town. Min
ing men find il a central place from
where they can conveniently reach
their mining operations in any of the
AkNh Anlhin6 SCtbAOnc lOI a
miles in all directions. Not only is
it convenient. but the school advan-
tages are right in the lead and the
social life is not one whit behind.
There are many old residents OF the
town who are retired people. well able
to go to California or some place
generally considered more favored
but they prefer to remain here. The
town is becoming all the time a nicer
place to live and people are becoming
more alive to the desirability of max
ing the town still more attractive.
Among the number of retired people
may now be found some farmers, and
still others are planning to come.
1t is said that number of other
old-time residents of Paradise Valley
who have made sufficient there to en-
able them to retire, contemplate NOV
ing to Winnemucca in the near future.
