COMM THRO' THE RYE

A reader of the Tribune takes
issue with the Delineator in it's
recent Interpretation of Comm
Thro' the Rye" He says:
BEG leave to answer through
your columns the assertion made on
the face of last months Delineator.
Contrary to general public opinion,
Comm Thro' the Rye" refers to
the River Rye in Ayrshire, Scotland,
not to a rye field. The lucky lad
who caught a lassie crossing the
stream on the stepping stones was
entitled to exact a toll of kisses
This is far from the truth, for
there is no such river in Ayrshire,
Scotland, as the River Rye. Tradi-
tion gives the credit of the song to
Lady Louden of Louden castle,
which overlooks the picturesque
Kilmarnock river. The poet, Robert
Burns, added the last stanzas, but
they were never claimed by him. The
public highways do not run parallel
and often there is great distance
between the line of communication,
which is through lanes and byways
on footpaths, through fields, which
were established by usage, and the
renters of the land cannot close or
destroy them. The writer of this
has often met his lassie comm
thro' the rye. The custom of *
- ia - - A.
exist long before Comm Thro' the
Rye was written.
1.-THE only thing that has the
name is a ditch or burn in Ayrshire,
about 7h miles long, which can al
most be stepped across except where
it meets the Daley water, which is
really a backwater from the tide"

PROPERTY RECENTLY PASSED
UNDER BOND TO COLORADO
MINING MAN

A big strike is reported to have
been made on the property of the
Onondago Mines company, near Pal

who developed the famous Fortuna
mine in Yuma, Ariz.
The ore carries lead, silver and
copper, with silver predominating.
A well-known expert examined the
property and he expressed the opin-
ion that it promised to develop into
another Comstock.

been ordered and the company pro-
poses to operate on an extensive

TO START SHIPPING

information from the headquar-

City is to the effect that the upper
workings of the Zack mine at Ruth
are now in ore of a good shipping
grade and that the property will
soon be numbered among the ship
pers. C. w. Geddes, consulting en-
gineer for the company, who re-
Gently visited the property, is quot
ed as saying that he found the
conditions and showings of the
property as a whole far beyond his
expectations. He plans to connect
the Zack and American shafts. The
American shaft is free from water
and as soon as the workings can be
cleared out active mining operations
will also be commenced there on
ore bodies exposed by former work.

Big Storm on COmstOck

Virginia City is snowbound as a
result of the heavy fall of snow a
few days g and a terrific wind
storm that prevailed, blowing the
snow into huge drifts through ut
the town and blocking travel In all
directions. A V. and T. express
train with three engines and 4
pillow reached Gold Hill, but in at
tempting to force it's way through
the Jacket tunnel was stalled. The
high wind had blown the snow into
the tunnel and the pillow forced It
against the timbers and the train
became practically wedged in. A
large force of shovelers finally
cleared a passage for it.

Bids for the construction of the
proposed county high-school at Las
Levas, for which $4,000 in bonds
was voted last November, were re-
Gently opened. 1t was found that to
comply with the specifications a sum
at least twice the one available will
be necessary. After the bids had
been opened Principal Street intimat-
ed that a nov might be made to
increase the bond issue and as a re-
suit a petition was circulated and
sent to the Clark county members of
the legislature asking that they in
troduce a bill providing that only
taxpayers and their wives, daughters
and sons be allowed to vote at bond
elections and that bond issues be
voted upon only at special elections.
This move was made to prevent a
further increase in the county in
debtedness, which is already Sass
900. the second largest in the state.

BIG STORM HITS
WESTERN STATES
TRAFFIC. IS DELAYED AND
WIRES ARE DOWN IN
UTAH

The snowstorm in the mountains
at Truckee that delayed yesterdays
train INTO Goldfield by reason of
having to wait at Nina for the
connecting Southern Pacific train
brought out the entire snow-fighting
apparatus of the Southern Pacific
to battle the heavy fall.
According to weather men in the
northern part of the state, the
storm did not reach its height yes
terday. 1t is general over Oregon
and Washington ald northern and
central California, with heavy rains,
snow in the mountains, and rain
in this state. The Truckee and
Humboldt rivers are running high,
but still we'll below records of
former years.
1t is reported from ogden and
Salt Lake that all trains entering
those points are late and that many
are disabled or snowbound in the
worst storm that has hit Utah in
years. A snowslide more than half
a mile in length at Echo City took
down more than 80 telegraph lines
to the east and although big forces
are at work it is reported that little
progress is being made in opening
rail or wire communications east.

GREAT WESTERN TO
Be %RE-EQU|PPED
FIRE WILL NOT DETER COM
PANY FROM CARRYING
ON OPERATIONS

John Magee, general superintend-
ent of the Great Western Mining
company, hurried back from the
coast on receipt of a wire telling or
the fire at that property. While in
San Francisco he completed arrange
ments for the purchase of additional
machinery.
Mr.. Magee says that the loss is
not heavy, although it has not yet
been even Appropriated. The mo-
tors may be restored by rewinding
and the hoist and compressor may
be used again after repairs are
made.
The building destroyed was a
light frame one and can be replaced
at little cost. 1t will be about so
days before the plant is rehabili-
tated. Within 70 days a new pump,
just ordered by Mr.. Magee, will
have arrived. 1t will be of the
turbine type and will be installed
on the 115O level. It's capacity will
be 600 gallons a minute.
The present assessment on Great
Western will provide sufficient
money even though there was no
insurance on the destroyed property,
to rehabilitate and conduct opera
lions of the next six or seven
months.-Tonopah Bonanza.
