THE TOWN OF "No-eooo."

My friends, have you ever heard ol the town of No-Good, on the banks ol the River Slow, where the Sometime brother scents the air and the soft Go-Easies grow? It lies in the valley of What's-tbeUse, in the province of t-Her-Slide; it's the home of the reckless I-Don't-Care, where the Give it-Ups abide. The town is as old as the human race. and it grows with the flight of years; it is wrapped in the fog of the idlers dreams. it's streets are paved with discarded schemes, and are sprinkled with useless tears Anon.

OF NEVADA TROOPS

There will be no mobilization of
troops in Nevada, the order received
August 3rd from the war department
for mobilization of troops in this state
having been revoked. The following
order issued from Adjutant General
Maurice Sullivan's office yesterday
explains the situation:
"An order dated August 3, 1916. has
been received from the war depart
ment at Washington. Said order is gen.
eral. in that it applies to all states
and provides that in view of the de-
STABILITY for the resumption of the
deliberate and careful organization of
new units, particularly with reference
to their permanency, the previous au-
thority given the governors of the
states to move organized militia to
mobilization points is revoked.
Nevada. at the present time. has
sufficient recruits for more than one
troop of cavalry, but said recruits are
from the several counties of the state.
thus precluding assurance of the per-
manency of troop organizations,
which is required by the order above
referred to.
Orders will issue from this depart
ment today for the discontinuance of
recruiting.
"By order of the governor.

FACTS OF RICH GOLD
STRIKE IN BONITA CANYON

The Tonopah Bonanza has the fol-
lowing to say regarding the recent
rich gold discovery in Bonita canyon ::
l.. A. Rice came into Tonopah yes
terday morning with news of a dis
covrey that may make history in the
northern section of the state. This
is the find of Jim Fahey, of Goldfield,
one of the best known prospectors in
Nevada, who has spent the better part
of the past two years looking for rare
metals His new locations are in Bo-
nita Canyon, eight miles northwest of
Humboldt House, forty miles west of
Winnemucca.
Fahey made his first location July
25 and since then has uncovered a
ledge forty feet in width that is said
to average from $12 to SIS in free
gold that may be recovered by
straight amalgamation, as there is not
single rebellious element about it.
The formation is a porphyry, lime
shale, dacite and andesite. The exact
ground has been christened Bingo Hill
and it is in the Central mountains.
The best way of reaching it is by way
of Jungo on the Western Pacific or
Inlay or Humboldt House on the
Southern Pacific. Fahey was pros
pecting around, having entered the
section with a complete automobile
outfit, and at three feet beneath the
surface found the ledge after trench
ing for about three feet. The ground
never had a pick and the nearest
workings are those known as the Cha
fey diggings, further north. Fahey is
backed by Joe Good, foreman of the
Florence Goldfield, and Nick Reinhart,
of the same company. There has been
no rush into the new district and the
only ones who have taken advantage
of the discovery are Billy keenan,, of
Goldfeld, and Jack Rice, formerly of
Hornsilver.
