PIOCHE LEADS IN
LEAD PRODUCTION

The Phoebe district is awarded the
honor of being the premier lead pro-
Queer of Nevada for the year 1921
in the report of the United States
Geological Survey for that year, and
first in the shipping of silver ores to
the smelters. The district while not
so strong in the production of silver
as some others is still a favorite
with the smelters on account of the
great production of lead in connec-
ton with the silver.
The report shows that crude ore
production of the Phoebe district was
1914 tons of a total state pro-
duction of 52,121; containing $685.
$50 ounces of silver against total
of 568,993; lead content is placed
at 3,029,031 with total for the
state of 6,136,809. More than SO
per cent of the lead produced by
seven mines, the leader being the
Bristol Silver Mines.-Goldfield Trib-
une.

STRAY FOUR DAYS
IN DEATH VALLEY
WITHOUT WATER

]. M. Longyear Jr., mining engi-
neer, and his sister, Mrs. Wanda
Rae, arrived from Mexico after a
desperate struggle against death in
its most cruel form. For four days
the couple wandered helplessly in
the shifting sands of Death valley
after their supply of gasoline had
given out. The fact that they es-
capped perishing will stand as one
of the mysteries of the valley.
Mr.. Longyear and his sister in
tended driving in their Essex car
from Old Mexico to Tonopah by
way of Tahoe, thinking that route
was open. At Mud Flat the road
was found impossible and Mr.. Long
year says he rode to Reno on the
train and was informed by some
body in authority at the highway
office that the only way to reach
Tonopah was by the extreme south
ern rout crossing Death valley, as
it would not be possible to come
over the Midland trail via West
gard pass. Accepting this advice
the couple drove to Bakersfield and
left there April 2, driving to Mo-
jave, Randsburg and Trona. From
Trona they laid their course via
Ballarat and Emigrant pass to
Beatty. Four miles out of Emigrant
springs they discovered they were
without gas and camped that night
on the desert. Abandoning their car,
Saturday, April 7, the pair boldly
plunged into the unknown depths of
the valley where all signs of roads
had been washed out by a recent
storm. They carried their sleeping
equipment but had no other food
than two raw potatoes remaining in
their car and small quantity of
water. The second day they en-
countered rain and managed to save
a small quantity that dripped from
their canvas covering. Wandering
up and down the submarine waste
the couple finally found themselves
at Stovepipe wells, where they tasted
their first water in three days. The
sister was left at the wells while her
brother resolving to push on in hope
of reaching a settlement. He stag
gered into Beatty exhausted, with
feet torn and bleeding. The last
two miles were covered with terrible
suffering and the last drop of water
was poured into Longyear's shoes to
allay the burning sensation.
George Greenwood took car to
Stovepipe wells and returned with
the lady while Dick Awkward took
truck across the valley to salvage
the Essex, which he found with
some trouble.-Tonopah Times.

YOUR NEICHBORS HELP TO
TRAIN YOUR CHILDREN
nv MARION HALEY

NEW YORK.-Next time Mrs.
Neighbor rus in to borrow some
flour or the lawnmower or use the
telephone or spend the morning
welcome her with a smile.
You owe big debt, says Arthur
Train, author of Ellis Children's
Children" AS a moral pacifier moth
ing can supplant Mrs. Neighbor. 1t
is her non-existence that is at the
bottom of New York's bad morals.
''The average New Yorker, and
in smaller way the inhabitants of
any large city, has seldom known
neighbors. Childhood has meant
just one moving van after another"
he explains.
Only model parents can read their
children without the neighbours help,
he believes.
"The city child" he goes on,
"misses the rightful protection of
small-town public opinion, where the
whole family is known to everyone.
The small-town boy is born and
brought up where for generations
his family has been known to every
one. Anything he does is quite sure
to please or shock them.
HE starts with an accumulative
fund of clean living, lifelong as
sociates of his parents, family pride
and self-restraint. There is an III
herited influence against wrongdo-
ing.
Now the big-city boy has moved
there in his infancy or was born
there. His early childhood begins in
one neighborhood. Then his family
moves from one apartment house to
another. By the time he is twelve
years old he has been set down
among strangers half a dozen times.
"Then begins the boarding school
and camp period. He is farmed out
in rapid succession. He has no
tradition and no accumulated in
huences. If he goes back to any of
the old neighborhoods where he
spent a part of his childhood, he
probably won't recognize face.
What is the result? He has no
circle of friends who represent
public opinion. No one group knows
what he does and no one cares.
$50 keep your old neighbors
within sight and sound" he advises.
"Neighbors-and a home that is
more than place to change clothes.
In this way you may help your
children to sidestep the jazz age"

COMSTOcK MINERS
HEAD BLOWN OFF

Harry Rowe, one of the best as
well as the best known miners of
the Comstock, had his head literally
torn from his body while he was at
work in mine in the Six-mile can
yon last Sunday night. He is be-
lieved to have drilled into a charge
Of dynamite in a missed hole.
In addition to having the top of
his head blown off, Rowe had his
arms and legs broken and his body
was otherwise mutilated.
He had been drilling in a mine
worked by Thomas Murphy and he
was found shortly after an ex-
plosion was heard.
Rowe was real pioneer of the
Comstock and he had lived there
for fifty years.
He was known as one of the best
miners of the camp and was an
expert in catching up loose ground
in the local mines-Carson Appeal.

NEVADA PACKARD is
IN GOOD CONDITION

Petition for the discharge of the
receiver of the Nevada Packard
Mines company, Frank Margrave,
for an accounting by the receiver
and for a final report has been filed
in the district court at Reno by
Mark Walser, president and a direc-
tor in the company. He petitions as
such, and also in behalf of the
stockholders of the company.
The Nevada Packard Mines COM
pany went into receivership in Feb
ruary, when the Lovelock Mercan-
tile company brought suit against
it. Walser maintains in his COM
plant that the total Indebtedness

$5S, 900, exclusive of claims of one
company which he holds were with
out merit, and that in February of
this year the receiver had paid off
95 per cent of the Indebtedness.

WELL KNOWN BOY is
HONORED AT COLLEGE

Wellington Henderson, oldest son

B. Henderson, and well known in
Elko, which was his home for many
years, has been elected to member
ship in the Ivy Club of Princeton
according to word received in Reno
from the Press Club, says the Ga
zette. The Ivy Club is one of the
oldest college fraternities at that in

sophomore year at Princeton, having
