1onopah Character
Dies at San Francisco

Charles j. ~Blumenthal, IN of the
earliest settlers of 1onopah, died a
few days ago in San Francisco.
No history OF Tonopah would be
complete without a mention of Blu
ME, as he was Familiarity known. He
was a character of unusual interest,
which outside OF tive circumstances
are not easy to account for. In the
earlier days when he vas In the gro
Gerry business he was a noted writer
OF comical ads in the newspapers.
These were reading notices in which
he followed the old catch style of
dilating at length on some such topic
as an imaginary circus coming to
town and winding up with a refer
ence TO the Frisco store. which vyas
the name of his place. Nature would
not have had to change him over
much to have made a comedian OF
him. he having had many of the
"aits, and he had a striking facial
semblanee 10 the late Nat Good
win.
ON account of his comic side he
was picked up as a mascot for the
cartoons of A. Y. Buel in the Tcno-
pah Sun and a cartoon was hardly
complete without his likeness and
some pat sayings attributed to him
therein. Once while on a vacation
at Seattle Buel drew n small likeness
of Blnmie on a postal card. writing
under it "Touopah. New" and the
card came through the mails to Mr..
Blumenthal.
Tonopah never had a moro loyal
adherent through thick and thin
than Mr., Blumenthal. When It's days
were the darkest he stuck by II and
put the money that ne made into It's
mines and securities. He seldom
made an outside investment, though
he was prominent In the Arrowhead
boom.
He was II native of Tennessee,
lived several years In Texas and com
ing to the coast located at Kirkland,
on Lake Washington back OF Seattle,
during Its steel works boom OF the
early Dos. He spent the following
years at Portland until removing to

DLA1N OF LINE, but gorgeously colorful, the new H breakfast robes usher in the current month with A their gay variety They are beautiful, and also practical One may choose model of softest satin or chiffon warm corduroy brocade is in equally good style and useful when ones boudoir and dressing room are combined
 Almost classic in its simple severity the satin robe pictured in the largest illustration displays wide, over tapping collar of sef-material The three-quarters length sleeves which unusually broad, cufed with similar bands and string girdle provides
 side closing To accommodate the kerchef or powder puff there is inconspcuous patchpocket at one side
 In striking contrast to the planness of this model another breakfast costume of shmmering chameuse This boasts many touches of fine, shrred lace. Con- centric circles used for the design and the trimming has suggestion of splendor
 At the neckne and sleeves tiny silk rosebuds deco rate the soft folds matching those clever little pockets which add both practical and artistic value to the general scheme Note that the sleeves fitted, showing seams at the top unlike the loose contour of the other robe - '@' ''- Copyright by
