Mr. Rockefeller has been telling I
of some of his early trials, but the
Silver State says he did not tell ot
some in which he managed to es
cape justice.
A poet whose offering was j
turned down by the Silver State
sends it back with a card, all to be
published at advertising rates.
This shows the fellow is not as
cra/.y as the poem would indicate.
Kick—kick like a bay steer—ii
you don’t get The News regu
larly. That is, of course, if you
are a subscriber. In starting out,
from various causes, papers are
apt to miscarry, but, if notified, we
will endeavor to find out where
the mistake is and correct it.
In entering a “general denial’’
that Claude M. Smith, our popu
lar Recorder, was married, the ed
itor of the Tonopah Miner uncon
sciously (?J wrote that the report
of the marriage was published in
The Goldfield News. Of course
he should have written that it was
published in the news department
of Goldfield happenings in the
Miner.
When the judge was passing
sentence on Senator Burton for
his flagrant abuse of his high office,
he said, “Public office cannot be
prostituted to personal ends.”
This reminds the Reno Journal of
a little boy who was fishing in the
Truckee a few Sundays ago. A
church member came along and
said, “You can’t fish on Sunday ! ”
“Yes, I can,” repli^*'. the urchin.
“No, you ca"\inte id the C. M.
“You just loc'V. ^ 7” responded
the youngster as he pulled from
his basket a four-pound rainbow

THE GLORIOUS FOURTH
Will B« Celebrated in Fitting Style
in tbe Goldfield District.
At a meeting held last Friday
evening in the Miners’ Union hall j
the initial steps looking towards a
fitting celebration of the coming
Fourth of July were taken. It
was. the general sentiment of those
present that,owing to delay in the
delivery of material, the railroad
could not be completed into Tono
pah before the middle of July, and
as there will be a big blowout on
that occasion (in which Goldfield
I will gladly join; it is believed that
many of the residents of Tonopali
'will be pleased to have an oppor
tunity to spend the Fourth in!

i It is proposed to arrange a base
[ball game between the Goldfield
[and Tonopali teams —in which the
latter is promised a good, sociable
heating. It is further proposed to
j have drilling contests, foot races,
burro races and other sports and
I amusements for young and old. In
the evening the Miners’ Union
will have a grand ball.
M. M. Detch was chairman of;
the meeting Friday night and W.
L. McGonagill secretary. Another
meeting will be held at the same
jplace next Monday evening, at <S j
(o’clock, to appoint committees and ;
perfect arrangements. It is hoped
that every business man and citi
zen will be present on that occa-1
sion. Let us have a good celebra-j
tion or none.
Gardnerville lias a mail named
Starke who advertises in rhyme,
starting out with “ Gelit nach
Ohten,” and winding up with
"Wird da vermieden.” Where
water is scarce—to say nothing of
>eer—a man would go Starke,
•taring mad if he had to read much
w e I
of that poetry.
NLWS FROM HAWTHORNE
(Special Correspondence.)
I u *110 case of the Nevada Chief Min
it. and Milling Company vs. Tinsley et
al, inlge Murphy read an exhaustive
and scholarly opinion in the District
Court tit Hawthorne, ou the 23d of May.
The decision was a lengthy one and dis
cussed many interesting questions in the '
law of mines and water rights. Among
the points discussed in the opinion were:
The sufficiency of location certificates of
lode and placer claims; ime and manner
of marking boundaries; amended loca
tion certificates; what constitutes a valid
discovery in lode and placer claims; the
ownership of springs situated within the
limits of a hide or placer claim; and the
rights of a subsequent lode locator to a
ioile situated within the limits of a prior
placer location. The Court decided that
the location of a placer claim was an ap
propriation of tlie waters of a spring sit
uated within its boundaries, and that the
locator of a lode claim within the limits
of a prior placer location was limited to
twenty-five feet ou each side of the ledge.
The suit was brought to quiet the title to
a placer claim and to enjoin defendants
from preventing plaintiff from di> citing
the waters of a spring situated ou the
claim to its quartz mid. Judgment was
rendered in favor of the plaintiff.
The case of the State against Cedro
Zavala came up lor trial in the District
Court ou the 23d. The Court granted a
motion for continuance on account of the
illness of Laura Pegrossi, a witness for
the State, and the case was set for trial
ou the 11th day of June, 1904.
J. A. Borland and F. M. Chipmau are
working ten tons of ore from the “Auto
mobile” mine in an arastra at Kinkend.
It is claimed that some of this ore is
worth $1,000 a sack. Some of the speci
mens show large chunks of free gold.
The claim has been abandoned for a
number of years and was re-located by
the present owners last Mai eh. The
lucky owners will net a snug sum from
this crushing. Tne tailings will be
shipped to Selby after the free gold is ex
tracted. _

Company is working its mill in Haw
