RESCUE DIRECTORS
REMAIN IN OFFICE
MEETING RESULTS IN ZADIG IN
TERESTS RETAINING THE
CONTROL

The annual meeting of the Res
cue-Eula Mining company held in
San Francisco resulted in the re-
turn of the majority or the old
board, which means that the proper
to- will be handled by the present
management and under the direc-
ton of Harry Moore as superintend-
ent, says the Bonanza.
The new board consists of
Charles ID. Laing, Herman Zadig,
j. w. Dorsey. c. Capp, formerly of
Goldfield, and Richard c. Harrison.
The only change was in the selec-
ton of the last two directors and
the retirement of j. l.. Joseph, who
withdrew in favor of Harrison, Who
is said to represent a large and in
fluential holding in the company.
For some months the probabili-
ties of a change in the control of
the company has been one of the
most interesting pieces of gossip on
the street and it was confidenta.ly
predicted by certain interests that
the vote would show in favor of the
same interests hat own the Mac
Namara mine and mill. While can
vassing for proxies it was repre-
sented hat the Joseph interest
would reopen the old MacNamara
mill to handle Rescue ore if that
side was successful in carrying the
election. This statement had some
local influence with a few stock
holders who gave proxies.

Save Your Eyesiqht,

"A great many men who are vel
enough Informed on other topics do
not know the first principles of how to
conserve their eyesight," DR.. Eugene
l.. Fisk is quoted in Worlds Work.
''rhey may be conscious of eye strain
and yet unconsciously go right on do
ing many things to increase that strain
things such as these-reading Il news
paper on IA jiggly street car. working
with d light directly behind them or
directly in their faces. reading or work
ing in too bright II glare or in II dim or
pickering Illumination. They do not
realize that they might well limit their
allowance of moving pictures. They
do not know the harm in too brilliant
ii desk light. They buy worthless pat
ent nostrums for the eye and have a
positive dread about adopting glasses.
The price they pay for all this is often
extremely dear. 1t ranges from o
slant physical discomfort to loss of
sight"

TO DRILL FOR OIL
NEAR NEVADA BORDER

Plans are under way for the
Mono county on the border of Ne
vada, according 70 the Financial IL
Mining Record. The lands ore in
the vicinity Of Mono lake, where
the existence of oil has been sus-
pected for many years. Some years
ago a Los Angeles company leased
or located a large acreage around
the shores of h e.lake, and on an
island near the center thereof. A
derrick was erected on the island
and was still there about a year
ago and it may be yet. Whether
the land now TO be developed in
cludes the island or not is not
known.
Oil is reported to have been
found in a number of water wells
and ~hand-dug holes. Samples of
it have been brought to Los An
geles which show it to be of a high
grade product, some of so light
as to be almost gasoline. A ranch
er in this vicinity attempted to drill
some wells himself. He lost practi-
cally all the limited equipment he
had then undertook to drill an
other hole with homemade tools. He
made a bit from the axle of an old
wagon and being a somewhat in
genious chap, he succeeded in reach
ing a depth of about 200 feet.

The greatest send-off yet accord
ed Goldfield recruits leaving to join

Walsh and George Jarvis, who left
on Sunday morning for San Fran

Stackpoole and Walsh Joined the
American army, S~tackpoole the en-
cheering corps, and Walsh the in
fantry. Jarvis is still another story.
Born under the British flag, he
had taken out first papers for
American citizenship and could
have Joined the American forces,
but after having decided to enter
the world conflict he wanted to see
active service as DON as possible
and knowing that the shortest way
to France for a man having nc
special qualifications for war work
was through Canada and England,
he cast his lot with the army that
is now bearing the greatest burden
and Corporal Koyle states that Jar
Wis should be in france in 80 days
and in the trenches shortly after.
From San Francisco he will go to
Vancouver and from there to Hall
fax, from where he will leave for
England.
The banquet was arranged by
Johnnie Morrison. who has known
Stackpoole almost since Goldfield
was discovered and who was born
in the same Colorado town with
Walsh. Both young men were we'll

Goldfield that ever before. 1t is
rumored that the departure of
Stackpoole hit particularly hard at
a certain Goldfield girl. and, accord
ing to Jack Thompson, the tears

self, there was much wailing on
Saturday night, or rather early on
Sunday morning, following the ban

CARSON men GET
EVEN WITH BA|R
WARDEN RUFE RENRICHS IN
TERMS HIM IN STATE
PRISON

Ike Bair, district deputy of the
b. p. o. E., returned Saturday
afternoon from attending the Elks'
convention in Boston. He reports
the convention to have been a big
success and that it vas voted to
raise $1,000, 900 among the Elks'
lodges of the country for the es-
France for the use of American
soldiers, the flag of the Elks to fly
owe the hospitals.
1t will be remembered t..at when
Governor Boyle and his stat were
in Goldfield on the occasion of
the preparedness parade, Il num-
Der of local men handcuffed Rufe
Henrichs, warden of the state peni-
tertiary, and William Maxwell. In
the fun that followed, Bair took
a leading part.
On his way home Bair was in
Carson and the Carson Appeal tells
what happened to him there in the
following article:
Ike Bair, district deputy exalted
ruler of the Elks, on his way home
to Goldfield from the national con-
vention of the order recently held
in Boston, was foolish enough to
run over to Carson yesterday, after
having wired from Reno to the
folks at home that they might ex-
pect him home on schedule time.
Foolish, because in this city he
met an old pal in the shape of
Bubbles" who owed him much for
tricks that Ike" had perpetrated
in Goldfield while Bubbles was
thereabOuts.
During the afternoon Bubbles un-
dertook with a party of Carson
Brother Bills" to show Ike all
the points of interest, the sight
seeing expedition ending up with
an auto ride to the state prison
where Warden Henrichs was but
another old friend glad to see Ike,
so pleased in fact that he insist
ed upon Ike remaining as his guest
for an indefinite period and to in
uIC Tic dSCCPtdilCC VI tHc lHVlId-
ton saw to it that the key was
turned on the visitor while said
visitor was on the inside of the
bars looking out.
But the cOnspirators had not
reckoned upon Mrs. Hendricks in
their little game, for she in some
way managed to frisk Rufe's pocket
and obtained the key with which
Ike was liberated and he at once
beat it" for the train which was
about to pull out for Reno. In the
meantime the boys had secreted
themselves in the coach and just
as the train vas about to depart
with Ike comfortably seated in con-
temptation of his reception at home,
he was seized by strong arms and
borne up the street to a local hos
tlery where he spent the night. or
what portion of it which was left
after he had finished paying for
round after round.

should Grip firmly and it possible
carry the runner back.
The men backing up the line are
called upon to make this form OF
tackle most often.
The side tackle is the one in which
the tackler meets the runner at an
angle. In these tackles, the runner
is either approaching the tackler's
left or right shoulder.
When the runner is approaching the
tackler's left shoulder the tackler
should keep his weight well down and
time his speed in such a way that he
= will intercept the runner and drive his
body across his path directly in front.
In this case, the tackler should take
off his right foot which should be
planted about two feet from the run
