what may be called good bird He
isn't as fast on the wing as others

the influence he has on the other

alight Then old Satcheback is
called on. He is released, and cir

for the cote. If the newly returned
pigeon fails to follow the first time,

"Old Satchelback" himself can't
take flying seriously The most Sc

FELL FROM FREIGHT ENGINE:
BROKEN NECK CAUSED DEATH

Thursday morning about 9 o'clock
a Southern Pacific brakeman by the
name of Shaw fell from the locomotive
of an eastbound freight train just
after the train had passed through the
Ryndon tunnel. and later on was
found dead at the bottom of a steep
embankment. He was seen by the
engineer just after passing the tun-
mel. and when the train reached Ell
burr he was missing. The signal man
at that place was sent back over the
track in search, and found the body
on the ice at the bottom of the steep
embankment at the eastern portal Of
the tunnel. 1t is believed that the
brakeman lost his footing and fell
from the gangway of the locomotive.
His neck and left arm were broken
and there were several scalp wounds.
He lived in Ogden and his people have
been notified and will be out on No 5
this evening" Elko Free Press.

promptly invite assistance and, when

SMELTER STARTS
SECOND FURNACE

That the government is in urgent
need OF copper for the various muni-
tions plants throughout the country
is evidenced by a letter received by q
local employment agency yesterday
from the Mason Valley smelter at
Thompson. The management of the
smelter wants men and instructed the
local employment agency to assist in
filling the demand.
Recently the smelter started its sec
ond furnace and is now working three
shifts a day. The refined product is
shipped to Perth Amboy, New Jersey,
a shipment being made each day. Last
summer the company experienced diff
ficulty in obtaining coke for its one
furnace. However, since the govern
ment has assumed control of the rail-
roads and is pushing the production
of copper, the supply at the smeltar
is sufficient to insure a steady daily
output which is now 100 per cent
greater than it was last September.

TO CUT OREBODY
AT WATER LEVEL

Humboldt county is in the way of
becoming a first-class copper pro-
ducer. J. J. Welch, in charge of the
Mason Valley Mines operations on
Majuba hill. eighteen miles west of
INLAY, has installed a compressor TO
drive a long tunnel to cut the lode at
water level. Jack Welch is one of the
foremost copper experts of the coun-
try and his zeal in going after the ore
proves beyond doubt that his properly
will be big producer.
Mr.. Welch has recently installed &.
compressor and is now driving a tus
mel some 1900 feet to cut the main
body of ore on the water level. some
500 feet below the upper workings
from which he has shipped high-grade
copper and silver. AS an additional
evidence of Mr.. Welch's faith in the
permanency of the lode, he has made
camp, secure for the accommodation
of twenty men against the most in
element weather, and is working two
shifts per day. The ore is consigned
to the smelter at Thompson owned b.
the interests which are operating the
Majuba hill properties.
