MEEHAN and
N CARTHY
ARRIVE
BOXERS ARE HERE TO TRAIN
FOR FISTIC EVENT
OCT. IL.

Johnny Mccarthy, who is match
ed to fight Willie Ritchie before the
Business Mems club on October IL,
and Willie Meehan, who will meet
Kid Carter in a preliminary to the
McCarthy-Ritchie contest, arrived
in Goldfeld this morning from San
Francisco.
Mccarthy is in better condition
than on any of his previous visits
here and Meehan is in condition to
enter the ring now, as he has been
fighting on the coast up to the
time of leaving for Goldfeld.
Last Friday night, at Buffalo parl
in Sacramento, Meehan met and
easily defeated Henry Hendricks of
Oakland in a four-round bout, to
the accompaniment of his usual line
of comedy.
The Sacramento Bee contained the
following account of the bout under
the heading, "Meehan's comedy en-
tertainment features fights"

hOr;zontally-constructed comedy fis-
tic entertainer, performed up to ex-
pectations at Buffalo Park last night
when he rolled around the ring
for four rounds smuggling Henry
Hendricks of Oakland almost at
will.
The only thing in Hendricks favor
was that he was game and able to
take stiff punishment, but toward
the end of the last round his legs
were shaky and a few more of
Meehan's swings would have sent
Henry to the padded floor.
With shape on his side, Meehan
had little trouble in keeping the
fans in uproarious laughter through
out the four rounds when he woD-
bled, danced and slid around the
roaped arena landing with terrific
force on the unfortunate Hendricks.
Willie was far too much for his Op-
ponent and he could land his
blows, especially to the body, al
most at will.

Mine OPERATIONS ARE
SET forth IN WEEKLY REPORTS

The chief interest in the mines
at present centers in the drainage
of the 1900 level, and while the
pumps have not been actually start
ed on this important work, the Off
cial reports show that this will be
a matter of only a short time. The
vertical pumps that we're utilized in
lowering the water from the $500
to the 200 level have been sus-
pended in the Mexican and Ophir
winze, but they are now being
transferred to the 200 station of
this Wine, where they will be used
as station pumps in the future.
The two e pumps are to be
installed in the Wine, and will re-
cover the ground down to the 1900
level. 1t seems probable that by
the middle of October the pumps
will be in operation, or soon after
that date, and a start made in the
realization of the long-planned un-
dertaking. The pumps have a ca
pacity of 500 gallons each per min
ute, and the pumping out of the
water will be a comparatively easy
task.
The Wine has been found in ex-
cellent condition down to within
a few feet of the 1900 and will re-
quire a minimum amount of repairs,
so far as can be judged from sound
ings.
Those in close touch with Com
stock affairs realize the Importance
of this new work, and before the
dawn of the new veal the prospect

ing drill should again be piercing
the vast area of virgin ground on
the 1900, where it was left off some
80 or more years ago., and where
the possibilities are said to be of
unusual promise. The pumping
plant at the North End is a wonder
to all those who have seen it, but
the latest equipment will add an
other unit to the elaborate system,
which probably has no duplicate in
the western mining field.
Throughout the North End mines,
operations are moving ahead at ca
pacity, and more headers are now
being sent out in all directions than
for a decade.
In fact, the hosting facilities at
the Union shaft are taxed to the

LEASE ON PIONEER
MINE EXPOSES ORE
IN SOUTHERN CAMP FROM
NEW FINDS

At the Pioneer Consolidated, con-
siderable interest is being taken in
the late find made by Dan Manning
and AL Lidwell on the grounds Of
the old Richard lease. Four feet
of high-grade at surface causes
rather unusual interest to be taken,
and it is said that the showing
is so located that the ore can be
confidently expected to go down.
On the strength of this showing,
the finders of the lead have worked
for the past three weeks, proving
up the ore to a short distance, and
making such a creditable advance
that the majority of the citizens of
Pioneer have taken a flier in the
new lease which has been granted
Messrs. Manning and Lidwell by the
Pioneer Consolidated company.
The lease is understood to run
for IS months, and to have been
given upon liberal terms that will
warrant considerable prospecting
upon the part of the owners.
In addition to this work, the news
of the new strike reached TOno-
pah, with the results that Messrs.

ENORMOUS COST OF
OUR BIG WATERFALL
NIAGARA'S WASTE OF POWER
EQUALS $3.50 PER
LOOK

Inc COSJ Ol pTeSeTNlHS the great
er part of Niagara as a spectacle, in
stead of utilizing all its energy in
industrial purposes, is estimated
by a writer in Engineering and Con-
tracing at $50 per look, for every
visitor who sees the falls. This,
he thinks. is rather high, even for
such a noble spectacle, and he joins
the writer lately quoted in these
columns in suggesting that the water
be turned on" for tourists for a
brief period daily and run through
turbines the rest of the time. Says
this writer:
"In round numbers, 5000, 00G
horsepower of energy flows TO
waste in Niagara. At least it would
be called waste were it not for the
fact that about 100000 people
view it annually. This great ma
tural moving picture costs society the
] value of three annual horsepower
per seat at the show. If, then,
we ascertain the value of a horse
power of water-power, we shall
hIo" what II COSIS SOCleJy 10 IUT-
nish each visitant one good look
at Niagara Falls.
"Appraisals of water-power values
have ranged from nil tt more than
range from nil to more than 800
per horsepower. Without going into
a careful calculation it may be con-
servatively estimated that Niagara
Falls power is worth to society fully
$50 per horsepower per annum. It
follows, then, that each observer
is indebted to society for $50 every
time he visits the great falls.
Might not the million annual
visitors to this greatest of c~ataracts
secure their thrills at less than $3.50
per look? Could it not be rrang-
ed that for. say, one hour each day
the entire volume of water be al
lowed to flow over the great brink,
and for the remaining twenty-three
hours let it u through shafts
and tunnels upon turbines? This
would bring the cost of a look ut
the falls down to about $7-the
price of three theater tickets IN
stead of the price of six suits o.
clothes.
But, some one may urge, Who
would cOme hundreds of miles lust
for one hours pleasure? Do this
thing that you propose and the au.
dience will stay away. Hardly, for
the gorge itself is a royal vision
at all times, and then if there be
those who insist upon a continuous
performance of the falls themselves,
why not give in to them in a grand
amphitheater where a screen 100
feet long would picture the roar
ing waters in all save the roar
Testing aside, it is a very high
price, a price unnecessarily high,
that Canada and America are pay
ing for trips to Niagara Falls. Lee,
us have a little real social engineer
ing brought to bear on this esthetic-
economic problem and we shall,
without doubt, find a way to utilize
nearly all tie power now wasted a;
Niagara yet not deprive mankind
of its heritage of beauty and grand

A DANISH
KNIGHT IS
ADMINISTRATOR

A Danish knight was a visitor in
Moorhead yesterday afternoon, a guest
here of Asst. Co. Atty. Victor Olesen.
His name is John c. Nelson, recently
of St Paul, Danish consul to the United
States, and he was here in the interest
of the estate of the late Lars Nelson,
we'll known Morkin township farmer,
who, it is believed, left hidden fortune
on his farm ten miles northeast OF
Moorhead.
Left No Heirs.
In probate court yesterday afternoon,
Judge James H. Sharp appointed Mr..
Nelson administrator of the Nelson es-
tate Mr.. Nelson left no will and has
no heirs. He was reputed to be a rich
farmer, having lived in the county over
twenty years and, although never
known to have a bank account, always
received spot cash for his produce.
Search Abandoned.
A search of his farm recently by
neighbors revealed no hidden fortune,
however, and for the past month or so
no effort has been made to uncover the
mystery. After making a thorough in
vestigation Of the matter yesterday, the
Danish consul appointed Niels j. Lar
son. local farmer, as his agent here.
Before coming to America a few
years ago. Mr.. Nelson was knighted
by the king of Denmark. He then came
here as consul for the Danish govern
ment.
Mr.. Nelson, who was accompanied
here from ST. Paul by Atty. r. NJ. Coun-
tryman, of that city, left for his home
late yesterday afternoon.
