FORMER EUREAN PROSPECTING
Joe Arthur and Partner Have
Good Producing Mine in the
Broken Hills

The Reno Gazette of recent date
has the following regarding Joe
Arthur, a former well known resi-
dent of Eureka and Ruby Hill:
James Stratford and Joe Arthur.
who have wandered over a good
share of Nevada in search of gold
and silver and who have made sew
eral discoveries that helped swell the
bank roll, are in Reno for a few days
after a fishing trip in the Reese val
ley.
They spent part of the Summer at
their mining property, the Broken
Hills. in southern Churchill County,
taking out and shipping two carloads
of ore which brought $40 per ton.
They will return to the mine the lat
ter part of the month, after STRAIT
ford has had another look on the
bright lights of San Francisco, and
they expect to ship several cars of
ore this Fall.
Formerly their prospecting and
travelling was done a-foot, prodding
their burros which packed the camp
outfit and tools. Now they have an
auto. for which the Broken Hills
mine paid. and they travel at ease.

RAILROAD COMMISSION
ENCOURAGES WELL BORING

For some time past the railroad
commission has had under consider
alton rates applicable to well-boring
outfits moving in carload lots be-
tween points in the State of Nevada.
At the present time the class A rate
is applicable on shipments of this
character and in taking the matter
up informally with the railroads
operating in Nevada the commission
urged the adoption of the class D
rate, which is approximately so per
cent less than the class A rate.
This recommendation was made
for the reason that the commission
believed that by the establishment
of a lower rate on well-boring outfits
material aid would be given to resi-
dents of the State in developing their
lands and the outfits could be shipped
from point to point for this purpose.
Under date of August 81, a letter
was received from the Pacific freight
tariff bureau, which represents most
of the railroads operating in Nevada,
in which that bureau advised the
commission that the Nevada lines
have given careful consideration to
its request that they establish rates
on we'll boring outfits moving be-
tween points in Nevada, and have in
structed the bureau to advise the
commission that they will be glad to
publish commodity rates based on
class D for specific shipments when
ever requested to do so, it being un-
derstood that the commission will
give authority to publish such rates
on short notice, when necessary.
The commission therefore advises
all parties who contemplate shipping
ell-boring outfits in carload lots to
make request of the railroad CON-
pany over whose line they desire to
make the shipment for the publica-
ton of a commodity rate not exceed
ing the class d rate, naming the
points between which the shipment
is to move.

 Did you learn among other things what MT. Warrington had done?"
 "Yes. A sordid affair. Ordinary peculations that were wasted over gaming tables"
 Warrington had told her the truth. At least, the story told by others coincided with his own. But what was it that kept doubt in her mind? Why should she not be ready to believe what others believed, what the man himself had confessed? What was it to her that he looked like Arthur, that he was guilty or innocent?
 And his name?" She wondered if the colonel knew that also.

CHAPTER XIV.
A Bit of a Lark,

 Mallow gave Craig one of his favor ite cigars. The gambler turned it| over and inspected the carnelian label, realizing that this was expected of him. Mallow smiled eomplacently. They might smoke as good as that at the government house, but he rather doubted it. Trust Britisher to know a good pipe-charge; but his selection of cigars was seldom to be depended upon.
 Don't see many of these out here," was Craig's comment, and he tucked away the cigar in vest pocket.
 "They cost me forty-three cents apiece, without duty" The vulgarians pleasure lies not in the article itself so much as in the price paid for it. On the plantation Mallow smoked Burma cheroots because he really pre- ferred them. There, he drank rye whisky, consorted with his employees, gambled with them and was not above cheating when he had them drunk enough. Away from home, however, he was the man of money; he bought
 
 silks, jingled the sovereigns whenever he thought someone might listen, bull lied the servants, all with the childish belief that he was following the foot steps of aristocracy, hoodwinking no one, not even his kind. "1'm worth a quarter of a million," he went on. Luck and plugging did it. One of these fine days I'm going to sell out and take a whack at that gay Paris. There's the place to spend your pile. You can't get your moneys worth any place else."
 Paris. Craigs thought flew back to the prosperous days when he was ply ing his trade between New York and Cherbourg, on the Atlantic liners, the annual fortnight in Paris and the Grand Prix. He had had his diamonds, then, and his wallet of yellow-backs; and when he had called for vintage wines and choice Havanas it had been for genuine love of them. In his heart he despised Mallow. He knew himself to be a rogue, but Mallow without money would have been bold preda- tory scoundrel. Craig knew also that he himself was at soul too cowardly to be more than despicably bad. He envied Mallow's absolute fearlessness, his frank brutality, his strength upon which dissipation had as yet left no mark; and Mallow was easily forty five.
 When you go to Paris, I'd like to go along"
 You've never let on why they sent you hiking out here," Mallow sug- gested.
 One of my habits is keeping my mouth shut"
 Regarding your own affairs, yes, But you're willing enough to talk when it comes to giving away the other chap"
 You can play that hand as we'll as can" Craig scowled toward the

"See here, Mallow; don't mind his being beaten up; but what you say doesn't sound good"
 You fool, don't want him out of the way. Why should I? But there's that thousand for you and worry for him. All aboard!"
 You don't love Parrot & Go. any more than I do.''
 "No. I'd sleep better O nights if |. knew he was broken for keeps. Too much red tape to put the United States after him. How'd you rig him?"
