MEN TO Be TRAINED

Continued From Page Three)
ceeding drafts. The plan is to- or
ganize new classes as soon as the
work of one class is completed and
the members of that class due for
service given their certificates. 1t
is estimated that a normal member
OF a class will require about 200
hours study to reach the desired
standard. The object of the course
is to produce operators who can
send and receive 20 words a minute
on some form of buzzer.
The course actually benefits the
student and but incidentally the
government. His training will cost
him nothing and, unlike the ordin-
aIy recruit, he will enter the army
as a trained instead of an untrain-
ed man. While he will go to a can
torment as a private, he may, when
assigned a a radio or buzzer oper-
ator, advance to the rank Of cor
poral or sergeant and a wage of
from $36 to $51 monthly. AS he
shows his ability and interest rapid
promotion will lie before him until
he reaches the position of master
signal electrician.
In addition to this, arrangements
are now being made by which the
signal corps expects to give ad-
vance instruction to promising
operators after they reach canton
ments, fitting them to meet special
demands in the service.
The success that will be attain
ed locally in starting and maintain
ing a class rests entirely with draft
registrants and the. success of the
plan will depend on the number of
registrants interested enough in
their own welfare in the army to
devote time to the classes.

AJAX AND BERNE INDULGE
In wARLIKE POw-WOW

William Berne, the Tonopah
wrestler, and a party of friends
were here yesterday afternoon. In
talking with Victor Ajax, who
threw Berne Tuesday night in To-
nopah, the latter said he intended
to bring his brother here from New
York and attempt to sign him for
a Graeco-Roman match with Ajax.
There is reported to have been lit
tie friendship for Ajax shown by
Berne in their talk and it ended by
the former threatening to throw the
entire Berne family as fast as they
could be brought on.

NEW ORE IN SIGHT
ON NIXON NEVADA
LARGE VEINS OPENED THAT
CONTAIN ORE RICH
IN COPPER

COPPERFIELD, New, Feb. TO-
Several discoveries of new veins and
orc showings have been made on
the Nixon-Nevada and Washoe Cop
per properties at Copperfield in
the past three weeks which, had
they been found in an entirely new
mining district remote from the
railroad and civilization, would be
heralded as important strikes. 1t
is significant that these finds we're
made at points over a half mile
apart and on ground that was re-
Gently acquired by the two compan-
les. And they also show the i'm
pcrtance of thorough surface pros
pecting.
The latest discovery was made
during the week on the Jefferson
claim which Is located on the south
slope of Granite Hill and southeast
of the main shaft on the Nixon-Ne-
vada. Less than three feet under
the grass-roots a big vein was I'M
covered from which ore specimens
ale taken that show so much cop
ler glance that no assay is neces-
sary to prove that that particular
piece at least will run from 40 to
so per cent in the red metal. 1t
is not claimed nor intimated that
the whole vein will average that
much-enOugh development has not
been done to test it out-but suffi-
cient ~high-grade Is in evidence to
warrant big hopes for future devel-
opment.
The vein which was recently un-
covered in surface trenching on the
Copperfield Fraction claim, a half
nile northwest of the Jefferson, is
one of the best surface showings
of the district. This is also a wide
vein and it has been exposed at var
ious points, in each one of which
ore with the rich copper glance is
found.
The visitor who goes over the
Nixon-Nevada and Washoe proper
ties for the first time usually ex-
presses surprise at the large number
OF veins which crop at the sur-
face or have been found in shallow
trenches. The likelihood of still
more being found is evidenced by
the fact that on Saturday, while
taking a party to see a proposed
tunnel site, Superintendent Gilman
found an entirely new vein crop
Eing. This will be prospected in
the near future.
With the bad ground caught up,
the main cross-cut at the Nixon is
again making good progress, but
the No. 4 vein has not yet been
reached.

Kaiser Replies to Satan and
Suggests Idea of Dual Throne

Had it not been for that country all
Europe would have been helpless at
my feet long ago. Shells made with
American money killed my soldiers,
and for this l can never forgive
America.
So the secret is out. You hint that
l had a hand in the Sarajero assassi-
nation. l flattered myself that l
had kept that covered up and no one
would suspect that 1 had a hand in
it. Well, it is all right, l suppose.
You inspired it in me and have a
right to share in the secret. You
will have to admit that it was clever
for me to be on my yacht at the time
of the discord and treason among
the Russians and thousands of those
brave people persisted through
treachery.
Lucifer, you make me laugh at
times. You express surprise at my
posing as a personal friend of God
and telling my people that God will
help them to victory. Can't you see
my plans. My friendship with God
is simply to delude the poor, sim
pie fools, who are dying that my
ambition may succeed. l have to
hand them this bunk once in a while
to keep their breasts barred to the
enemy. Without it they would quit
fighting. l tried the same bunk on
the neutral nations, but they were
too clever to believe it.
have taught my people this creed
since l came to the throne. The
children in the schools are taught to
hate all things not German. They
are taught that Germany is invinci-
bic and anything that l do is not
wrong. I have disguised it under
the name of kultur. My alliance
with the Turk was a clever move on
my part, as it gave me an excellent
opportunity to pass the buck. When
they commenced slaughtering the
Christians, no n connected my
lame with It., as the Turk had
slaughtered Christians for centur-
les.
You need not fear that your work
will be sighted. l have six sons
who are as capable of ordering cruel
ties as myself. Sometimes l believe
the oldest boy has a little more sub
tie cruelty in his nature than l have.
Some have compared me to Ma
poleon. That makes me incensed.
Napoleon never battered down his
toric c~athedrals, the work of centur-
les; Napoleon never left a trail of
fllegitimate children whore his
armies passed; Napoleon tried to
spread civilization in conquered
countries, while l have spread kul.

Europe; mine is to rule the world.
You talk of a%bdicating in my
favor. Don't do it. Let us have
a dual throne. With your exper-
fence coupled with my nature we

would surpass all your previous
efforts. And am saying this in

Inc Is pEOUuCeu ny al
as the kaiser's reply to a
letter from Satan, published a short
time ago:
Royal Palace, Berlin.
My Dear Luciter:
Your kindly letter received and
Its contents noted. Indeed, my dear
Satan, you flatter me, but l cannot
help but feel that all your praise is
rot misplaced.
I will tell you frankly, l was a lit
lie incersed when you compared me
with Nero. To my mind, Nero was
a piker. But on second thought l
that that he did not possess
the many advantages I do for carry
ing on his devilish work. He had no
guns that would shoot for 90 miles;
he had no gas bombs nor flame
he had never had the OPP
portunity to drop bombs on school
houses and kill little children; he
could not send his aviators owe
towns and drop poisoned candy for
the children to eat; he did not have
the advantages under which he could
sink passenger ships and kill hum
dreds of women and babies. TAX
ing all this into consideration, l think
that Nero did pretty we'll, consider
ing the disadvantages under which
he worked. If I had lived in those
days l do not know that I could
have improved on his methods of
raising hell, although some of it
looks crude to us now, with our re-
fined cruelties.
I thank you from the bottom of
my heart for your gifts to me. My
ambition has made me the
most hated man in the world. 1t
has sent my soldiers through peace
full villages, bent on murder, rapine
and arson. 1t has made a million
widows and has made a million
mothers childless. 1t has produced
an army of a million men MANNED,
without arms, without legs and
without sight. 1t has bereft some of
their reason and they will go through
life with their minds a blank. 1t has
thousands of women of their
and brought slaves. My name
is coupled with curses in every
Until now l have always cursed
the loathsome disease which left me
a withered arm, but l now dis
Germ your inscrutable wisdom. With
that l might have had human
instincts, which would interfere with
my ambitions, and might have made
show a semblance of pity as I
saw the result Of my fiendish work.
Without that twist in my moral
makeup l might have told my gen.
erals to treat the Belgians with con-
s%ideration and kindness. / might
have told Tirpitz to order his sub
marine commanders not to sink
ships without warning and to give
passengers a chance to save them
selves.
Indeed, my dear Mephisto, I
share with you a hatred for all
English. 1t was England that
my victorious soldiers on the
Marine and prevented me from con-
quering the world and making all
nations my vassals. 1t was England
that tried to interfere with my plans
by proposing mediation when l had
all my plans set for a world con-
quest. England has taught savage
Christianity and the love of
their fellowmen, while / have en-
deavored to instill hatred into their
hearts and make them fiends in hu-
man form.
My hatred for England is only ex-
ceeded by my hatred for America.
