and little Miss Clay Burns flower
girl in advance of the bride, who en-
tered the church from the rear with
her father. The bride was met at
: the altar by the groom and his best

Don t Squeeze Black
Heads-DissoIpe Them

Squeezing and pinching out black
heads make the pores large and cause
irritation. Blackheads are caused by
accumulations of dust and dirt and
secretions from the skin and there is
only one safe and sure way, and one
that never fails to get rid of them-a
simple way, too-that is to dissolve
them. Just get from any. drug store
about two ounces of calonite powder
sprinkle a little on n hot. wet cloth
rub over the blackheads briskly for n
few secOnds-wash off and you'll be
surprised TO see that every blackhead
has disappeared, and the skin will be
left soft and the pores in their natural
condition.

INDIAN WIRES DEAD
COYOTE TO MAKE SURE

An Indian boy working for j. c.
Riordan On his ranch ear Sunnyslde
had a queer mixup with a mad coy
ote during the winter. The boy was
sleeping in a log cabin a few rods
from the barn and corrals. He heard
a racket outside and ran out bare.
footed, having only a flasElight.
Seeing the light the coyote came
straight for him and the Indian. had
only the 1ashlight with which to de
fend himself, SO he struck the coyote
on the nose with 1t. This felled the
animal, they being easily stunned In
that manner, but the Indian had
nothing there to finish 1t with. There
were some rocks close by which were
frozen down but they could not be
Jared loose with the Indians bare
feet. He ran to the barn for a %
rife, thinking to kill it with that,
but the gun was empty, having been
shot a number of times that day.
and by that time the coyote had re-
gained its feet and started for him
again. The Indian got hold of five
cartridges and shot at 1t and hit every
one of the five times, but 1t kept APP
preaching until the fifth shot, when
it was hit between the eyes and
keeled over dead.
Since the animal had been SO ten
acious of life the Indian was not con-
WINGED that 1t was dead and TO make
sure that It. would not get away he
gathered some wire and twisted 1t
around the coyotes hind leg. drag
ged 1t to a fence and wired ii to a
post. When the victor won't back to
the spot in the morning the coyote
was still dead and wired to the post.
It proved that a large sheep had
been slain by the mad animal before
the Indian came out of the cabin.
The sheep was discm5oweled and
otherwise torn but none of 1t was
eaten, as rabid animals do not eat
or drink.

received from Chief Surgeon r. A.
Bowdle of the Steptoe Valley hos
pital. You will note from this that
my attention has been emphatically
called to the conditions under which
we now find ourselves.
Again let me say that anything /
car do to support you in your eff
forts to better the welfare of our
community will be most heartily
done.
The DIR. Bowdle letter referred to
by Colonel Marsh reveals the previ
ously unknown fact that the death
of T. McGourity was from delirium
tremens. He suffered a broken leg
at the Butcher Boy mine of the Con-
solidated Coppermines and was
brought to the Steptoe hospital.
where ordinarily he should have re-
covered rapidly and would have dcne
so but for the poisonous form OF al
cohol In his system. Following Is
the doctors letter:
Recently one of your employees
was sen to me with a badly broken
leg. The accident vas a serious
n but 1t should not have proved
fatal had the man been in Q nor-
mally good physical condition. In
fortunately his system was saturat-
ed with and in a most deplorable
condition through the use of bad
alcoholic drink. Probably had the
man been in normal physical condi-
ton he would have been sufficiently
alert to have escaped the injury.
However had he received the injury
and been physically fit undoubtedly
we could have pulled him through
in good shape.
This was not the case. Shortly
after reaching the hospital he de-
yeloped delirium tremens and died
as a result of acute alcoholism. The
shock coming from a broken leg was
a contributing factor but not the
cause of death.
would like to take this occasion
to call your attention to the serious
consequences and accidents that are
continually coming under my care
as a result of many of the employees
using poisonous alcoholic drink. The
use of this moonshine rapidly
breaks down their general health
and resistance. 1t dulls their brains
and slows down their reflex actions,
so as to make them the unhappy
victims of many accidents. Most OF
their type of accidents would not
occur If the men were in good phys
ical condition and had clear brains.
Moonshine is claiming more vic
Tins daily and the users Of 1t are
constantly increasing their chances
of being victims of unnecessary ac-
idents.

PwRESTONlUND ROAD
NEARING COMPLETION

The new road between Preston
and Lund In one section for a dis
lance OF more than three miles Is
practically compelled. 1t is being
graded and gravelea at the same
time and unless a rain comes it may
not be first class this summer. which
will make 1t all the better for next
fail, when nature will furnish the
moisture to pack it. This grade was
made three years ago but has been
little used.
It Is a little longer than the old
road across the fiat, the route being
to the east a short distance and on
better ground. The old highway has
long been known as one of the worst
pieces of road in the county during
wet weather and the ground is OF
such q nature that the effects in the
way of ruts and roughEess do not
leave when it is dry.
The second section on the Preston
end will be we'll under way in a few
days.
The work is under the direction
of County Commissioner j. ]. Gubler,
whose home is at Lund, and consci-
entious work Is being done. Horses.
wagons and scrapers are used and
local men are employed.

Strawberries in Market
from North California

Strawberries from Placer county,
california. have been in the market
here during the week and have soid
onite well at 90 and % cents a cup.
They are in good condition and
make nice window displays In ELY
stores. They are not large but are
of good shipping and keeping size.
Few II any, some OF which have been
on hand several days, are overripe.
The crates are larger than former
ly. containing twenty cups Inc
Utah crates heretofore have con
tanned but fifteen cups and probably
will not be enlarged. n reason be-
ing hat thousands CT crates are stili
ON hand and are used several times.
Each crate costs IL cents knocked
down and u 1-2 cents put together
and the cost OF fifteen cups Is 0
the same. Sometimes the cups are
sold with the berries and at other
times not. Buyers generally hnd II
- their advantage to pour the ber-
rIes out of the cups in making pur-
ehases to see that there Is no mildew
or other damage beneath the top.
The first cherries have arrived
from California. They are fancy
hacked and selected as to size. They
retail at 40 cents a pound.

HAY MOVING TO TOWN
DURING NICE WEATHER

Much hay is moving To town from
white river, the fne weather and
GOOD roads having a stimulating ef-
soct on its movement. Loads were
brought in this week by team by J.
A Vance of Lund. over Cazicr and
william Horton If upper White river
and some others. 1t Is fine hay,
some alfalfa and some wild hay.
The price of aithcr in Ely is $40
A ton wholesale. n better figure by
50 than 1t brough. during the snow
blockade. Since then and during the
breakup quite a lot o. hay WAS ship
ned here from II imboid. county and
brought the higher price. The fact
that the quarantine against alfalfa
weeyil prevents the hauling of hay
rom Snake valley TO Ely has . nat
ural effect on the price.
The quotation here is about the
same as at Kansas City and else
where in cities of the middle west,
the latest quotation from there being
s26.50 for the best grades.
Within q few days Governor Seru-
CHAM has released the quarantine on
1000 tons of Loyelock valley alfalfa.
permitting 1t to be shipped TO east
ern markets. The order requires
that II be. shipped by rail only and
applies to Pershing county. Il Is
intended for stoekyards feeding and
feeding to stock for butchering
which will not be returned to the
west or shipped to any farming re-
glon and there will be no danger OF
insect spread from its use.
The freight on hay from Loyelock
TO Kansas City is s11.40 a ton and
the cost OF raising and taking care
of the hay is placed at SO a ton,
leaving a margin of approximately
50 for the shippers. which must
cover the cost of baling and hauling
to town for shipment.

COLONEL M4RSH SUPPORTS
EDWARDS RIEPETOWN STAND

The stand taken by District Attor-

commissioners against the issuance

resorts at Riepetown HIS met with
support from the management Of the

tion. While in his letter in response
10 the speech of Mr.. Edwards. Cen
eral Manager Robert Marsh Jr. ipdj-
Gates that he has doubts as t, the
Feasibility of the general principle of
prohibition, which he intimate, is a
stimuiant for the production Of
poisonous moonshine liqur, he ncy-
ertheless is willing to 30 the route
TO stand by the district attorney in
regard to resorts that are felt to be
inimical. Here Is what Colonel Marsh
says:
note in the Ely papers that you
have taken a stand against the IS
suance of soft drink licenses 10 ap-
plicants from R%iepetown. I take IL
that your stand against this Is based
on the very probable ahuse that
VIII be made Of such licenses, If IS
sued.
As a matter of fact there is nc
doubt that serious abuse has been
made Of such licenses at Riepetown.
as we'll as in many other places, and
II the prevention of the issuance of
such licenses or cancellation CT
those now valid would do away with
the selling OF poisonous oneoctions
| would most heartily ;ndorsc your
action.
will be glad to support you in
this contention II you feel that even
an improvement can be made in the
control of such traffic. 1t Is espe-
cially difficult to control 1t in Riepe-
town because OF local conditions,
whereas I believe you aie better
able to cope with IL in Ely, and I
would be very glad, indeed, IL such
licenses would be confined to a dis
trict where there Is q reasonable
amount of control.
l in no way wish to discriminate
or work a hardship on the little
community of Riepetown, but l do
feel that very serious results are TO
be laid at the door of the vendors
of poisonous liquors in that vicin-
ity. My belief in this connection Is
based on many conversations l have
had with my W workmen who
have been the victims OF this traf-
fc. Aside from Its bad effects on
the work they are endeayoring to
do, 1t Is seriously breaking down
their health.
