Do You Know a Baby Sick
With Constipation
Tell the mother to give half a teaspoon
full of DR.. CsldwelPs
Syrup Pepsin.

MO thoughtful mother with children
~ in the house will risk being without
a good, reliable laxative. 1t will save
many a serious illness, many a
Doctors visit.
When the baby cries and is fretful,
when the boy has noappetite and won't
play, when the girl is listless and fever-
ish, when there are complaints of
headaches and colds, the mother can
suspect constipation. Give DR.. Cald-
wells Syrup Pepsin> in the small dose
prescribed on the bottle, when you put
the child to bed, and with morning the
ailment will have disappeared,
DR.. CaldwelI's Syrup Pepsin is a
popular compound, of Egyptian SIENNA
and other simple laxative herbs with
pepsin and pleasant-tasting aromatics. 1t
acts gently and mildly, and children
take it without objection. A sixty-cent
bottle is enough to last an average FAM
lily many months. The ingredients are
endorsed in the u. S. Pharmacopoeia,
and last year American mothers bought
over eight million bottles of DR.. Cald-
wells Syrup Pepsin from druggists. 1t
is the largest selling liquid laxative in
the world, and few cautious families are
ever without it.

accompanied the party.
The horses began to arrive at the
Harvey stables at l0:T and were
-Bunkie and Alice, two thoroughbred.

Several of the horses were the same IS
last year and noted among the drivers
were Harris, the Chicago banker, and
Col. Tompkins, on the same horses

FORMER WINNEMUCCAN GIVES
HIS IDEAS OF HLIPAR

j. w. Douglass, formerly of Win
aemucca. later justice of the peace at
Rochester, was a visitor here a day
or so ago. stopping over night on
his return from Illipah ana EIko
Douglass is in the oil business now,
being interested in some Texas pro-
ducing wells. and his trip to Illipah
was for the purpose of sizing up con-
litions and the prospects of striking
oil. Referring to Illipah. Douglass
expressed the belief that the company
had a good chance of striking it.
Al Elko he visited the two oil shale
plants, one of which is being con-
ducted by the government and the
other by a corporation, and he be-
lieves the oil shale business has a
great future in store, inasmuch as
there is a growing shortage in oil
md gasoline and the cry for a sub
stitute for the latter is becoming
'ouder. Mr.. Douglass returned to
Rochester yesterday.

FREIGHT DELAY HOLDING
WORK IN HARMONY NINE

Machinery Shipped months ago for
use in the Harmony mine, east OF
Winnemucca, has not all been deliv-
cred yet, according to G. b. Williams,
superintendent. and the delay has
so seriously handicapped operations
that duplicate parts have been or
dered. Some time ago the bulk of the
machinery ordered was delivered here
and taken to the mine. 1t consisted
of an engine, pump. compressor, air
drills and other new equipment. In
the meantime concrete foundations
had been laid and everything gotten
in readiness. After the engine and
compressor had been erected it was
found a clutch. pulley and a box of
engine parts were lacking. The miss
ing parts will make a two-ton ship
ment, thus forbidding express as a
prompt method of delivery. Nothing
can be learned as to where the miss
ing freight is held up.
Miners are driving north and south
on the hundred-foot level. Williams
said, in milling ore in both drifts,
but further sinking can not be done
until the new pump is in operation.

BUTTON IS RIDING
JOHNSON SPECIAL

Frank Button of this city, Hum
Doldt county's member of Nevada's
delegation to the Republican conven-
ton, expected today to leave on de-
layed train No. 2, to insure being on
hand next Monday when the meeting
convenes. He will travel on what
was a second section of No. 2, known
as the johnson Special" because it
carries the California delegation,
pledged for Johnson. AT Sparks the
hrst and second sections were con-
solidated. Several other Nevada dele
gates will be on the same train.
Chairman Hays of the Republican
national committee has announced a
solution of the problem of seating the
ten states. 1t was found forty addi-
tional chairs could be placed in the
space arranged for delegates on the
floor of the Coliseum, and the other
sixteen will be accommodated by oc-
cupying the spaces of delegates who
happen to be absent.
In announcing the plan, Chairman
Hays said:
I'm almost every case the election
of these extra delegates in various
states irons out bad factional differ
ences and has made for harmony
within the party. | do not want to
recommend establishing troublesome
precedents, but l am suggesting a
way to seat the good accomplished
in the states by their election"
Confirming this Associated Press
dispatch, says the Reno Gazette, Har-
ry j. Humphreys, chairman of the
Republican state central committee,
has received from Chairman Hays the
following telegram:
by resolution just adopted by ma
tional committee, extra delegates
elected in any state above the number
provided for in the call, having frac-
tional vote each, are to be seated and
physical seats have been made possi-

OIL WORK
AT SULPHUR SOON

w. +. Christiernsson is in from Sui
phur section to meet some parties
who are coming from Denver to in
vestigate the oil possibilities out
there. Christiernsson and associates
hav four sections of oil claims, To-
Gated last year, before the oil leas-
ing bill went into effect.
Christensen is dividing his time
mostly between the development of
his mining claims and his homestead
He has group of nine copper
claims, with a big body of low-grade
ore, on which he has been pegging
away for the past thirteen years,
sometimes working alone and some
times through leasers. He has one
tunnel in 400 feet, another $50 feet.
another 200 feet and six shorter ones
Leasers have, at various times,
shipped out eight or ten cars, MAX
ing a haul of thirty-five miles. The
smelter returns give six to twelve
per cent copper, one or two ounces
of silver and about one dollar in gold.
Assays, however, show as high as
ffty-five ounces silver and twelve dol
lars in gold.
Mr. Christiernsson is confident that
copper will have an inning one of
these days and then he expects to be
rewarded for his years of work and
waiting.
His homestead is 160 acres, where
water is only a few feet from the
surface and pumping inexpensive. He
estimates that he can irrigate sixty
acres, and already has forty under
irrigation. He will try wheat this
fall, putting in ten acres, and IL it
turns out well he will probably put
in more next year.
He says that rye grass grows ten
fest nigh on his place and it makes
fine pasture.

ELKO TO COLLECT
$1,000 FOR TEAM

More than forty baseball fans
gathered at the Mayer hotel. in Elko,
to talk over and adopt some plan
whereby Elko can have a genuine
baseball team, says the Free Press
Some very plain talk was INDUCED in
and it seemed to be the sentiment of
the audience that if some feasible
plan were presented to the business
men of the town, sufficient funds
could be collected to finance team
and keep it going, and the outcome of
the meeting was the appointment of
a committee, consisting of II. w. Hes
son, Mayor J. A. Mcbride and Harry
Newman to adopt some definite plan
and call a meeting later on.
The owners of the rodeo grounds
offered to give the club free use of
their grounds. The county, through
District Attorney Castle. offered the
use of the county tractor and grad
er to put the grounds in condition,
forty auto owners present, offered to
donate their cars free each Sunday
game was held, to transport the
spectators to and from the grounds
and this spirit was shown through
out the evening.
1t was decided that If a fund of
$1,000 were collected, in connection
with the gate receipts, that club
could be formed and kept going. That
all deadwood must be cut out and no
player allowed on the team only
through his ability to play ball. that
the finance and control of the club
be placed in the hands of committee
of businessmen. Elko needs a base
ball team, and it is believed that il
the businessmen can be shown that
good team can be organized. they
will contribute literally and support
it, But the teams Elko has had in
the past few years have been such
fizzle that the general run of busi-
nessmen have become disgusted and
it has been impossible to get a crowd
to attend.

Jack Kirwin. deputy game warden,
plans to stock all the streams in this
county during the summer with fish.
When Congressman Evans was here
recently, Mr.. Kirwin asked him for
$4,000 little trout from the govern

sides these, Kirwin expects to get
some little bass from the Nevada
state hatchery, the bass being in
tended for the Humboldt river and the
trout for the various mountain
streams of the county.
Mr.. Kirwin says there are about
twenty streams in Humboldt county
which he plans to stock. The prin-
cipal ones are: Rebel Creek, Willow
Creek, Buffalo Creek, Eight-Mile
Creek, Quinn River, Kelly Creek,
Martin Creek, Stone House Creek,
Cottonwood Creek. Pole Creek. Clear
Creek, Sonoma Greek and Thomas
Creek
A number of fisherman of the
northern sections have expressed a
willingness to cooperate In the
work. having offered to transport the
fish from Winnemuccca to the
streams without expense to the
county.
This is by far larger number of
fish than has ever been brought to
Humboldt county in one season for
planting
