IRATE WIFE TAKES A FALL OUT OF HUBBY WANTED HIM TO EXPLAIN LONG ABSENCE FROM HIS OWX FIRESIDE. TONOPAH TEAM TO PLAY GOLDFIELD NEXT SUNDAY SERIES OF SEVEN' (JAMES AH. RANGER WITH SOUTH ERN' CITV. Now that the mining world has the proper and authentic news of the new camp of Juniper, or Ath ens, as it is better known, the facts of its early discovery and location are. coming to light. It was in 1905 that John Martinez, driving a bunch of cattle from the Bell roundup, found some likely look ing float, which, upon panning, pro duced sensational results. It was not until May, 1910, that any defln ite attempts were made to prospect for the vein, and then Martinez, in company with J. B. Stott outfitted in Smokey Valley, and after a short hunt located the ground that is today attracting the attention of all southern Nevada. However, it remained for James Herald, of Tonopah, to discover the ledge from which the picture rock originated. Herald, who had heard o the strike, quietly dropped into the camp and started prospecting on the Sorrel Top No. 1 claim. He worked industriously and diligently prospecting: the entire length of the known mineral belt, and one evening, after a long day in the grilling sun, a day of disappoint ment from endless pannings, found a piece of float, which from his long experience, he knew to he from the 'mother vein itself, for the tiny piece of time worn quartz was covered with little clusters and globules of gold. Fired with the fever of the gold seeker Herald for eot the fading twilight and the long tiresome day, and prospected the entire side of the sloping hiii until .he flnall uncovered, what, beyond question, will prove to be a bonanza, and promises as a reward to make him rich beyond his I dreams. For days afterward Herald at tempted to secure a lease upon this find and it was not until July 5 that the necessary papers were drawn up and the discoverer of the ledge afforded the opportunity to extract the gold bearing rock. His lease is near the original find; this spot Martinez and Stott will work for themselves and it is known as the reserve section. Contrary to expectations yester day, the rainfall, which was intend ed to cool the ardor of those who are hot-headed, had a contrary ef fect on one of our citizens. The citizen in question, a lady, was real wrathv and provided amuse ment for a number of spectators. The side show happened last ever.- ing and the place was in front of one of our thirst emporiums. Or, to be truthful, we should say it was in the rear of the buildin From what could be gleaned from the utterances of the irate lad-; (irate is correct ana then it sounds more polite than the word "mad") it appeared that her lord and mas ter had failed to show at his re spected abode since payday. Wifey desired an explanation for his ab pence and when neither were forth coming she made hubby look like Jim Jeffries after his meeting with Johnson. It was a real animated discussion and urged on by the cheers of the audience, the disciple of Johnson landed lelt hooks, right uppercuts, avoided clinches and ended the bont by grabbing, her be loved by the ears and marching him in the direction of home. If the battle was continued on their arrival home, deponent sayeth not, but it would be safe to presume that the man of the house listened to a curtain lecture before he was allowed to sleep. But such is 11 fi in this desert section Chief of Police Ed Malley, who is also manager of the local base ball team, announced yesterday that he had made arrangements with the Goldfield nine to play a series of seven games. The first will be played on the Tonopah diamond this coming Sunday and the re mainder will be played on each suc cessive Sunday, the scene of the battling ground to change alter nately between here and the south ern city. The local team is con 'fident of winning each game al though they may allow the south erners to win one, or maybe two games, just to encourage them. HLIT1CA L ANNOUNCEMENTS.
