necessity of chewing something more

tically useful side for this habit is
evidenced by the orders placed by the
4uartermaster of the United States
army for 100000 packages Of this
standard American dainty. We learn
from the war department that the
commanding officer OF a field artillery
regiment, about TO embark, stated that

take the place of hundreds of gallons
of drinking water when water was

ANOTHER MADE RICH
WITH DIVIDE stocks

Julius Goldsmith Of Tonopah is dis
tinctly in the money. 1t all came
about when the Divide started him on
tht high road to fortune and he was
able to stock the present Dividend
locations for a sum hat would seem
insignificant at this time of greater
possibilities and demonstrated ore
production.
Then he turned the Rosetta and the
Goldsmith, but all these ventures
amounted to nothing compared with
his plunge into Bush street during
three months absence from camp
That period included the most excit-
ing speculation and julius was in the
vortex. He was in and out of the
Divide Extension three times and the
last time he got in he backed hi
Judgment to the limit of his pile. Get
ting in around sixty-fve cents he
rode the market clear through TO the
peak. when he sold out around 81
and bought all the Dividend he could
find.
This was his own property and he
was one of the first to be advised that
the Extension ledge went directly
through the group. From forty-two he
awaited to ninety and sold, taking
enormous profits. About this time he
was approached by a representative
of the Zeb Kendall and Herb. Hum
phrey crowd with a bid for his entire
holdings in the Dividend, which have
been estimated at $4,000 shares. The
offer was said to be for the purpose
of securing absolute control in be
half of the Extension crowd. A flat
rate of fifty cents a share for the
whole block was bid. according to
The men who furnished the money
for the play thought they had also
cinched the stock held by Ed Guilt
nan, manager of the company. which
would have given them 10000 shares
or control.
Cullinan is said to have reconsider
ed his option and held out for the full
market price. This is said to be the
reason why the pressure on the mar
ket was relaxed and support with
drawn to create the impression that
there was something wrong. Accord
ing to the estimates of men on the in
side, Goldsmith is credited with clean
ing up close to $500. 0OO.-[Reno Ga

ROBERTS SAYS CAMP
,W|LLORO IS WINNER

Prediction of a mining boom fol-
the camp of Willard, eight miles from
Lovelock, is made by Z. Il. Roberts
former congressman from Nevada
who lust returned to Reno from the
district, where he spent two days.
says the Gazette.
On the Sheep Herder's Dream prop
erty, where two men, Davies and
Jose, are leasing, a seven-foot ledge oil
very high-grade ore has been opened
up at a depth of fifty feet and the
men are taking out a great quantity
of ore.
The Sheep Herder's Dream was
operated by the owners about four
years ago and a shaft sunk within
fifty feet of the shaft in which the
leasers found ore. The owners quit
work and the leasers stand a chance
to make a fortune. The first shaft
went down at the side of the present
orebody and the leasers are now run
ming a drift to connect up the two
shafts. Their lease runs for two
years more.
Foster and Huston, operating an
other property, nearly a mile and a
half from the Sheep Herder's Dream,
and joining the Treasure Hill group
of claims, have opened up rich ore,
according to Mr.. Roberts, indicating
that the ore is not confined to any
close AGRA. The Honey Bee group
of claims, situated between the prop
critics already mentioned, has also
some excellent showings.
Claims are being taken up fast, ac-
cording to Roberts, and the presence
of many mining engineers and persons
eager to get in ON the ground floor in
dictate a pending boom. The surface
showings are excellent. he says.
"Lovelock is very active" said Mr..
Roberts, and business there is good.
The new Goodin hotel, being erected
by ". II. Goodin, will soon be COM
pleted and will be a fine addition to
he city. This hotel will have be-
-ween forty and fifty rooms"

the man vomited p~rofusely. bringing
forth the teeth, which had lodged in
