J. w. -, San Francisco - Re-
garding your inquiry concerning de-
velopments on the Silver Pick Con-
solidated Mines company, will state
that Manager George S. Dyer re-
ports having made an important
mineral discovery on the 11OO-foot
level. Mr.. Dyer is at present in San
Francisco comforting with the Off
Gals of the company. At this time
we are not in a position to give facts
concerning metal values, but drift
ing and prosecuting on the vein
seems to have proved that a promis-
ing find has been made. This dis
covery was made to the west of the
Columbia mountain fault, engineers
previously having c~ontended that the
one was barren of mineral. We will
be pleased to furnish you at a later
date information concerning this
property.
w. I. L., Hastings, Neb.-The At
lanta Mines company is producing
quite heavily of a high grade ore.
The new mineral finds made during
the past couple of weeks are genu-
inc and an increased output is prom
ised for the immediate future. 1t is
stated officially hat the company
will furnish about 100 tom of ore
daily to the fiotation plant of the
Goldfield Consolidated Mines COM
pany as SOC as ore treatment has
started. From this source it is an
ticipated that a heavy earning will
result from the treatment of low
grade reserves that could not previ-
ously be handled. You will find
an accurate account of recent devel-
opments in this issue of the Gold
field News.

MASKED HOLOUP'
GETS TWO BITS
PRESSES GUN TO VICTIMS HEAD
AND SEARCHES POCKETS
THOROUGHLY

A misguided highwayman last
night held up a miner on Miner
street, across from the California
beer hall, and after a diligent
search succeeded in finding in his
pockets the price of two drinks, all
in one coin, which he appropriated
to his own use.
The victim, Jack Staples, was on
his way to town from the Santa Fe
club On North Fifth avenue, where
he boards, when the highwayman,
masked with a black handkerchief
with holes cut in it for his eyes,
stepped from an alley at the rear
entrance of the now unoccupied Mer-
ger bar and, pointing a gun at him
ordered him to hold up his hands
and face the wall.
Keeping the gun pressed against
Staples temple, the man then went
through his pockets thoroughly,
even to unbuttoning his vest and
searching the pockets of his shirt,
and found the lone coin, which Sta
pies says he was on his way to spend
in the beer hall for tobacco" after
borrowing it from the bartender in
the Santa Fe club.
AS the highwayman passed around
in front of his victim and was un-
buttoning his vest, the handker-
chief dropped almost entirely from
his face, and as the moon was shin
ing brightly Staples was able to OBJ
serve him for an instant. He claims
that he recognized the man.
Staples says that he reported the
holdup to Night Officer Shirley, who
consoled him by asking why he did
not smash" the man. Staples said:
"A fine chance l had to smash him
while he was behind my back with
a gun to my temple"

CONVENTION PRIMARY
 IS NOT MANDATORY
Question as to Whether Action of State Central Committee in Calling Primary for COnven- tiOn Candidates is Binding.

Little Rock, March 16.-The action of the Democratic State Cntral com mittee in calling a primary for April II for the selection of candidates for the constitutional convention at the election to be held June 26, is being construed by some as optional and not mandatory It is probable that there will be no primary in some of the counties.
 J. G. Ferguson, deputy superintend- ent of public instruction, is a candi- date for delegate from Searcy county, and is also chairman of the county central committee. He says that it is not his intention to call meeting of the committed and that so far as he is concerned there will be no primary election in his county. He does not consider the action of the state con- mittee as binding.
 Another question raised is the filing of pledges under the corrupt practice act. which each candidate for any office is required to do thirty days be- fore an election. There is not suffi- cient time between this and the pri- mary for candidates to comply with the law.
 Another question is the application of the law passed in the closing days of the legislature, and signed yester- day. of which Mir. Waggoner of Lon oke is the author, requiring the pub lication of affidavits of corporate con nections by candidates. The law says nothing about primary, and 1t IS held that the act cannot be made to apply to candidates running in the primary,

CATTLE ASSOCIATION INVESTS
 SS.O00 IN REGISTERED BULLS

Little Rock, March 16.--L. c. Finch, of 123 Barker street, Hot Springs, secretary of the Mena Cattle Associa- ton, writes Commissioner Page as follows:
 After due deliberation and discuss ing it among ourselves, the directors of the Mena Cattle Association have decided to invest $S,000 in tick-im- mune registered Hereford bulls, and distribute them free among the farm CTS of each neighborhood throughout the district from which we buy cattle, with the agreement that they give us first refusal of offspring at same price others will pay.
 Exchanging the bulls widely every two years. making it a neighborhood affair. and all owing the keeper to make a nominal charge for his trou- ble. we believe it would profit us, also the farmer. and raise the grade of cattle ten times quicker than any other way"
 The plan has the approval of Com missioner Page, who is an earnest ad- vocate of raising the standard of Ar kansas live stock.

Little Rock, March 16.-Railroad Commissioner T. E. Wood and Rate Expert H. M. Gregory are attending an Interstate Commerce Commission hearing at New Orleans. The Shreve- port rate case has been reopened and an application will be made to con- soldate it with the Memphis rate case, which they are to ask to be re- opened. These cases directly concern the interests of the Arkansas shippers. The Legislature appropriated $15,O00 to fight tn rate cases.

George w. Goethals, or to await the decision of the Supreme Court on the constitutionalfty of the Adamson law.
 Freight employees, yard men and hostlers on the New York Central lines, east and west, the Nickel Plate and Baltimore and Ohio railroads and in the great yards in Chicago and St. Louis will be the first to leave their posts.
 They will be followed on Sunday by the same classes of workmen on the Southern railway, the Norfolk and Western, the Virginian, Chesapeake and Ohio and on a group of North western roads.
 Passenger Trains Out Wednesday.
 It is said that the freight employees on the other roads will be called out in groups at 12 or 24 hour intervals after Sunday. If the paralysis of freight traffic thus caused does not force the railroads to surrender before that time, the employees on all passen- ger trains will be ordered out We'd nesday.
 The railroad managers say that they expect that enough of their men will remain loyal to enable them to maintain skeleton service on most roads. Some time ago the managers took census of their employees to de- termine how many would refuse to strike. This resulted, it was said, in percentages ranging from a very few on some roads to from 30 to 60 per cent on others.
