Man Is Injured by Bull

A few days ago EX-Mayor A. l..
Parker of Ely was attacked by a
bull on his ranch in Ely and mad
it not been for the fact that the
animal had been d%ehorned, he
would have been killed. Before
he realized that there was any
danger he was knocked down by
the bull, which then butted him
with it's nose and rolled him around
in the soft plowed ground. After
battling with the animal for about
20 minutes he secured a firm
hold on the ring in the bulls nose
and was able to control the attacks
OF the animal. He was badly bruis'
ed about the body and sustained two
broken ribs.

RICH COPPER ORE
At MOUNTAIN VIEW
DISCOVERY is MADE UPON RE-
TURNING TO EARLY DAY
WORKINGS

d. w. Mckenzie, James Adams
and R. V. (Red) Taylor of Yering-
ton, on the 14th instant, made a
visit to the property formerly known
as the Northern Light mining
ground, which lies a few miles
southeast from the city, says the
Times.
After making IN inspection OF
the claims of this group, while dis
cussing the formation and topo-
graphy of the country in which
they lie, Adams remembered that
a few years ago attractive speci-
mems of copper-bearing ore had
been taken from a gulch a few
miles east from where the party
stood. The others also having
heard of the ground, it was de-
termined to go there at once.
Arriving at the canyon sought
they found large boulders of COP
ptI-UcdIlu IOCh WhICh d loll1u
down the gulch and from it's sides.
Proceeding up the canyon they
found cuts made by formed pros
pectors, which they proceeded to
investigate. Here they found a
large vein of rich ore on which they
disclosed a 1O-foot face in a IL
foot open cut. Sampling this face
carefully, they sent their specimens
to an assayer.
. Keeping their discovery quiet
until they got returns from their
assays they found that the ledge
averaged 1880 per cent copper
with a value of 40 cents in silver
making the average value of the
ore $90.98 per ton. The strike
of the vein follows the direction of
the canyon, east and west. The
discovery is about a mile south
of the Mountain View mine.

PRINTER SEES ODD
SNAKE At SPRINGS
MAN WHO HAS ALWAYS BEEN
RELIABLE TELLS Pc
CULIAR TALE

Frank HertZer, a linotype opera
tor for the Tribune, frequently gees
swimming at Alkali springs. While
near the springs last Sunday he
had a peculiar experience. He
ran across a joint snake in a ra-
vine and hit it with a rock. OF
course every joint flew apart. and
started to wiggle off.
Frank. just for a joke, picked
up n of the joints and put it in
his pocket and then slipped off
behind the rocks and waited to lei
what would happen. In about ten
minutes he heart a sort of low
whistle and then a rustling. The
head of the joint snake came out of
the ~sagebrush and looked around.
1t then made a peculiar whistle and
another joint backed up and fast
ened on to the head.
The head whistled twice and
joint No. 2 came out. and so on
so many whistles for each joint,
until it came time for the one
Frank had in his pocket. At It's
call the thing threshed around
in the pocket like all possessed. but
couldn't get out. OF course, with
out the joint that fit, the snake
couldn't get together.
Frank said the last he saw of it
the head had taken charge of one
half and the tail the rest and had
gone in different directions to hunt
up the missing joint. Frank star
ted to return to the springs anaA
had almost reached there with h.
joint when an automobile footed
down the road. This either scared
the joint or it was its coupling
on signal, for Frank says it man
aged to flop out of his pocket ami
set away in the tall sagebrush.

REPORT DESCRIBES
PETR|F|ED FORESTS
TREES BELIEVED TO HAVE
BEEN WASHED DOWN IN
BIG FLOODS

The "Petrified Forest" of Arizona
really a series of petrified forests,
lies a short distance south of Adam
ana on the line of the Santa Fe
railway. There are four forests"
included in a government reserva-
ton called "Petrified Forest Ma
tional Monument" created by pre-
sidential proclamation in 1906.
The name forest" is not strictly
appropriate. for the petrified tree
trunks are all PROSTATE and are
broken into sections. The logs
are the remains of giant trees
that grew in Triassic time, the
age of reptiles. The trees We're
of several kinds, but most of them
we're related to the Norfolk Island
pine, now used in indoor decoration.
Doubtless they grew in a nearby
region and. after falling, drifted
down a water-course and lodged
in some eddy or a sand bank.
Later they we're buried by sand
and clay, finally to a depth of
several thousand feet. The con
version to stone was effected by
gradual replacement of the woody
material by SILICA in the form
called chalcedony. deposited by I'M
foreground water. A small amount
of iron oxides deposited at the
same time has given the brilliant
red tints which appear in much OF
the material.
Some of the three trunks are
6 feet in diameter and more than
100 feet in length. In the first
forest there is a fine trunk THAI
forms a natural bridge over Il
small ravine, the water having first
washed away the everything clay
and sand and then folling a %crevice,
worked out the channel underneath.
The length of this log is 10 feet,
ard the diameter 4 feet at the
butt and IL feet at the top.
The petrified woods are beauti-
full objects for study. When thin
slices are carefully ground down
to a thickness of COOS inch or less
and placed under the microscope
they show perfectly the original
wood structure, all the cells be
ing distinct, though now they are
replaced by chalcedony.
BY studying the sections F. =.
Knowlton, of the United States Geo
logical Survey, Department of the
interior, has found that most OF
these araucarian trees were of the
species Araucarioxylon ~arizonicum
a tree now extinct. 1t is known
to have lived at the same geologic
time also in the east-central part
of the United States, where the
remains of some of it's associates
have also been found. These in
cluded other cone-bearing trees,
tree ferns, cycads. and gigantic
>horsetails, which indicate that al
that time, the rainfall was abun-

TEUTONS GUARD
BELGIAN COAST
GREAT DAMAGE HAS BEEN
DONE TO TOWNS NEAR
SEASHORE

ROTTERDAM. Netherlands July
"A correspondent who has just
been permitted to visit the Belgian
coast reports on the formidable
defenses that have been raised there.
A long line of barbed wire entangic-
ment stretches along the coast, and
an endless series of long slender
ships guns protrude from the coarse
grass of the dunes. and behind the
dunes crouch the heavy howitzers.
Underground dwellings of bomb
proof concrete form part of the
great trench along the entire coast
he says No spot is unguardod.
Everywhere the endless line is oc-
cupied by sailors, who endeavor to
find relief for the monotony of
their life in gardening and in the
care of their pigs, goats, rabbits
and birds.
"Here and there one comes across
an enormous unexploded shell,
hurled ashore by n of the big
British warships, and which nov
form the ornamental center of a
flower garden. saw a big fellow
among them, some SO centimenter
calibre.
what n sees in the way of des
truction is the work of the fast
observation-disclosures, which have on
occasion hailed smaller shells on
the coastal towns with their quick
firing guns. The of house
are gnawed away: here and there
a gable exhibits great holes. But the
damage is not very bad, at least
not in Ostend and Zeebrugge, much
less than one would have supposed.
even on the seaside the towns
appear to be little damaged. The
big bath hotel at Ostend is I'M
touched, and the great glass Kur-
haus shows no breakage in it's in
Vulnerable panes. A few big build
ings by Zeebrugge have been level
ed to the ground, but that was the
work of the Germans, owing to the
fact that these buildings helped
to direct the enemy's fire on the
occasions when he sought to des-
troy the most susceptible feature
Of the harbor, the big lock.

begins where the French land guns
Middelkerke is a mass of ruins. 1t
is a remarkable fact hat 500 peo-
pie continue to crouch there. The
school is even still attended by 80
children. But every house has its
underground refuge, such as the
soldiers construct in the front lines.
Shells still fall in the place al
most daily.
"Middelkerke is now in such a
state that the Germans no longer
take up quarters there, but prefer
to live in dwelling-holes burrow-
ed in the dunes. Some streets al
ways lie open to the French OBJ
servers and gunners. Long walks
can be taken in the southern part
of the place, by winding cover ways
that have been broken and dug out,

garden walls, houses and cellars.

EMPLOYEES
GETTING TOGETHER

St. Louis, Mo.-In a bulletin issued
by the order of Railroad Teleg-
raphers, affiliated with the A. F. of L.,
President Perham states that As
schedules, carrying increased wages
and improved working conditions,
have been successfully negotiated
during the past six months. Some of
the largest trunk lines in the United
States and Canada are included in
the list.
According to President Perham, the
cooperative movement between the
various railroad organizations has in
creased during the year The teleg-
raphers have joined with the four
train service brotherhoods and the
International Brotherhood of Mantle
nance-of-Way Employees in an agree
ment for mutual protection, and the
Brotherhood of Railroad Signalmen
has instructed its executive board to
initiate a similar movement with the
tNlN - a EJlAtl D
These incidents are proof that rail.
road employees in every branch of the
service are quietly getting together
without bombast or screeching pub
lcity
hTe fraternity that prevails among
these railroad men extends to other
workers, as is indicated by President
Perham's reference to the struggles
of the Commercial Telegraphers
union against the Western Union and
Postal Telegraph companies He
urges all railroad telegraphers to Eek
ert themselves to do everything pos
sible for the welfare of our allies and

BOSSES ACT AS
STRIKEBREAKERS
Owners of Passaic and Dover
Knitting Mills, Closed by
Walkout, Do Own Work

Dover, n. 1.-THE knitters at the
Guenther mills, in Passiac and in
Dover are out on strike, with ex-
cellent prospects of winning. But
these strikes present some peculiar
features.
For the first time in their lives the
bosses are at work. AS their adver-
tisements have brought them only a
few young men who are not compe-
tent knitters, they have set to work
to learn the trade, in the hope of do
strikers to terms. The success with
which they have met may be guessed.
In Dover the chief owner of the
mills, one Guenther is also attempt
ing to force the workers back to their
jobs by giving "one months notice"
to some of them who live in company
there was threat to burn one of the
houses.
superintendent Nickel has tried in
vain to prevent the men from picket
ing, but they have insisted upon exer-
cising their constitutional rights, and
the mill is constantly watched.
The Passiac strikers have been out
four months. The Dover mill has
been closed for six weeks, and 165
knitterS and 700 girls have been
thrown out of employment there. The
workers demand the abolition of the
two-machine system, recognition of
the union, the American Federation
of Full Fashioned Hosiery Workers,
and an increase in wages. This in
crease would still leave the rate of
pay lower than in the average union
shop in this country
The only appeal that the men make
is that knitters keep away from the
two places where the strike is on.

PITTSBURG'S STRIP"
NEEDS PREPAREDNESS

Pittsburg, Pa-The attention of a
certain class OF preparedness advo-
Gates is called to conditions in Pitts
burg's Strip" which has been sur
yeyed by the Christian Social Service
Union.
Within this area of three-fifths of
a mile located between the Pennsyl-
vania railroad yards and the Allie
gheny river, $4,000 persons live. A
visitor to this district can according
to Rev. R. Earl Boyd, "see sin and
shame and poverty and cruelty; he
hears the wall of the wearied worker,
the sob of the heartbroken mother,
the cry of neglected children; he
smells the reek of congested quarters
the stencil of stables and outlawed
wells; he tastes the CRIME and dirt
that he must inhale in breathing; he
touches the springs of the district
politics and finds it corrupt ma
chine"
In one school in this district IA ma
| tionalities are represented with us
pupils. OF these SO per cent are of
south or southeastern European ma
tionalities.
The United States Steel Corpora
! ton has two plants in the Strip"
and it is stated that: One thing not
able is that there is no provision here
by this corporation as in some places
for lunch rooms for the men" Out
side of a few instances, the survey
shows that, lin general, there is little
shown in the policy of the industrial
establishments"
Wages in this area are on a pal
with other conditions. In study OF
one-half block in which 1856 iron and
steel workers lived it was found thai
the average rate of wages per week is
ployed, 40; net average income pei
week, $4.66.
In another block 33 families have
10 members and ia boarders in II
rooms, total of 2S4 people, an aver
age of 1-3 rooms and Ali people
per family. Among these were eigh
families keeping boarders in three
room apartments and having 28 mem
bers and "a boarders, an average o
6 IL persons a family, or over two
per room.
