Hunter Has Narrow Escape

While Tom Johnson. a Reno fire
man, was stalking ducks in the high
tule marsh at Washoe lake a few
days G he was given a graphic IL
lustration of life in the trenches. He
had reached an ideal spot when a
charge of shot swept his hat into
the marsh and as soon as he had re-
covered his headpiece more stray
shot started to take effect. One hit
him on the nose and blood began to
flow. Having or a pair of borrowed
boots. he retreated to save them
from being punctured. On the same
day Police Judge Bryson of Reno
was peppered and some of the shot
landed on his face, but did not mar
his beauty.

REGULAR DIVIDEND
FROM YELLOW PINE

The Yellow Pine Mining company
will pay the regular monthly divi-
dend of three cents a share on the
29th of the month. The finances of
the company are in a most satisfac-
tory condition. General Manager
Fred A. Hale Jr., reports that Au-
gust was the best month of the year,
netting a profit of twenty thousand
dollars yer and above the dividends,
which is ten thousand dollars more
than was earned in any previous
month. Mr.. Hale states that the ex-
ces war profit tax will in no way
affect the payment of dividends. All
taxes for the year including bullion,
ETC., will amount to 100000. There
is $4,000 in the reserve fund,
which will more than cover all such
expenditures.

SPEAKER TELLS
OF PREPARATION
SAYS COUNTRY Is FAST OVER
TAKING GERMANY IN WAR
PREPARATION

Continuing on the same subject
as that used by John F. Kunz in
his four-minute speech Saturday
night at the Exchange theater, Ar
thur E. Barnes spoke Sunday night
at the Lyric theater.
He said, Never before in the his
tory of the world has a nation &C
complished such wonderful feats as
the United States has accomplished
in the last six months. Whatever
imperfection we may see in local
fields, the overpowering fact is this:
We are catching up; catching up ir
one year with Germany's 40 years
of preparation.
Billions are being spent. Much
of the money will go into work of
permanent value. All of the money
is being spent in this country. Il
is voted by the people for use by
the government, and the govern
ment spends the money among the
people,"
The speaker said the work OF
preparation thus far was but a be-
ginning and referred to the speech
of Ebert H. Gary, head of the Uni
ted States Steel corporation, in
which he said that the United States
can, within three or four years, fur
nish $1,000, 900 men, well trained
and fully equipped for battle; and
she can, within the same time, fur
nish 500, 600, 100000 without Grip
ping her financial strength or in
terrupting her industrial process
and that, if necessary, she will do
both.

FORMER HIGH-SCHOOL IN
STRUCTOR IN MASSACHU-
SETS DRAFT

With the next national army
contingent to leave from Goldfield
will go Leslie c.. Willard, formerly
instructor in commercial subjects in
the Goldfield high-school and now
with the John S. Cook bank, and
in Willard the army will receive
the only 100 per cent perfect man
to be examined by DR.. j. L. Nc
Carthy, according to the physicians

Among all the men examined
Willard was the only one declared

Willard Is registered in Massa-
chusetts, but prefers to enter the

WashOe Quota Still Untitled

The anne of $50 more men
have been posted in Washoe county
to fill the county quota of 213 for
the national army. These men come
between the numbers 1926 and
1876. or the 1926 examined thus
far 15S have been certified back to
the local board by the district board
and SO have been sent to American
Lake. Exemptions have been so
numerous and the cases of some of
the men so involved that the board
has experienced great difficulty in
filling the quota. 1t is believed
still another $50 men will have to
be called to secure 213.

ED CHAFEY SHIPS
FROM CANDELARIA

Leasers on the Lucky Hill prop
erty in the Candelaria district, 25
miles from Nina, in Mineral county,
this week began shipping ore under
terms of a contract signed last week
with the United States Smelling COM
pany, at Kenneth. Cal, which calls
for the delivery of SO tons of ore
daily. Ed Chafey, who is the leas-
er on the Lucky Hill, reports good
showings of ore on the property and
has procured trucks and put them in
service hauling from the property to
the Nevada and California railroad,
a narrow-gauge line in that district.
The ore being hauled is silver-bear-
ing, and Chafey reports good ship
ping ore values.
Leasers are also at work taking
out ore for shipping from the BIZ
Metallic property. owned by p. A. ST.

BONDS IN
FAVOR BY BIG
INVESTORS
BANKER POINTS OUT ADVAN-
TAGES IN NEW GOVERN
MENT ISSUE

SAN FRANCISCO, Cal, Oct. s.
While the patriotic appeal involved
in the necessity of maintaining the
position of our country in the war
is a sufficient argument in favor of
the purchase of Liberty Loan bonds,
the technical position of the issue
as an investment is naturally a mat
ter of interest to the large sub
scriber.
George X. Weeks, vice-president
of the National City company, one
of the largest dealers in investment
issues, and general campaign man
aser for the Liberty Loan in the
twelfth district, has stated the posi-
ton of the new Liberty Loan As
from the technical investment Sc
curity standpoint. He SAID:
The second Liberty Loan cam
paign opens under very favorable
auspices from the standpoint of
the investment standing of the
bonds offered for sale. The Lib
erty Loan 3hs sold last June
were exempt from all taxation.
except inheritance and estate
taxes. This issue was nearly so
pei cent oversubscribed.
The free market for these
bonds has been somewhat hamp-
cred after the June campaign by
a necessary delay on the part of
the government in issuance of
permanent engraved bonds, but
the interim certificates issued by
the different federal reserve banks
have been salable at all times, at
a concession of not more than a
nominal fraction under par.
AS the date has approached
when the permanent engraved
bonds were ready and as inves-
tors have learned, with the offer
ing of the second loan, they could
either hold their fully tax exempt
AVS or convert them into a high
er rate bond bearing 4 per cent,
exempt from all taxes. except
estate taxes, surtaXes and excess
profit taxes, the demand for the
old 3ks has been such that they
have ruled on the New York
stock exchange during the last
10 days at a nominal premium.
the high record price being
10000 and accrued interest.
The investor is offered in the
second campaign a bond bearing
interest at the rate of 4 per cent
per annum, which cannot be re-
tired by the government in less
than 10 years. which is CONVEX
tible into any higher rate bond
issued during the curse of the
war and which is exempt from
normal federal taxes and all
state and local taxes.
1t is not to be expected that
during the active course of this
second campaign, when subscrip-
tions for every available dollar
are asked for by the government
for the new bonds, the old So
per cent bonds will continue to
rule at ven a nominal premium.
