WHERE BLOW THE WINDS OF TESTER YEAR
Do you remember when Death Valley Scott hired
that special train and broke the record from Nevada :
to New York? You recall how he had that mysterious
highgrade mine somewhere in the hills near Goldfield |
and was tipping bell-hops with careless five-dollar gold
pieces and how all the world tried to get into Goldfield
the next day or throw their money there.
Do you remember how' they put Weepah, Nevada,
over as a newT highgrade camp with gold glistening on j
the surface and got a million dollars publicity for noth-1
ing and had 3,000 people there in two weeks and water I
wTas selling for a $1.00 a gallon? There wras a dance hall1
going the first week and moonshine and water brought!
about the same money per drink.
Goldfield made good but Weepah was a flop. Theyj
got down 15 feet at Weepah and the vein pinched out,
but Boy! What an admiring crowd they had to look at
the few sacks of ore with an armed guard stalking
around.
Gee Whiz! If we could only blow some of that wrind
from Alaska! Why the stuff w^e’ve got up here would
knock those guys cock-eyed if they only knew it. Our
stuff is rich on top and don’t peter out at 15 feet down.
It goes down and gets better. Bout time for us to dig a
hermit from these hills, put him in an airplane and
let him drop nuggets and gold pokes in the principal
cities of the States.
That might get action. What?
HIS GOOD TURN
That human kindness is still abundant and some-1
times manifests itself under unexpected circumstances |
is illustrated by a little story in the Paris Figaro.
A Paris “young man about town” being driven in aj
handsome closed car was halted at a street intersection j
to let a hearse pass. The hearse was followed only by a i
woman and two small children on foot. It was raining
hard and she was trying to protect them with a shabby
umbrella as they sorrowfully followed the father’s
corpse to the cemetery.
The young man stepped from his car, asked the
widow and children to get in and instructed his chauf- j
feur to take them to the cemetery and then to their j
home. Then he bowed to the bereaved group and hailed j
a taxi for his own use. j
And the Recording Angel wrote that on that day a !
blase boulevardier had done his good turn.
MORE GAME BIRDS
Benjamin Lawton, game commissioner of Alber- [
ta, Canada, reports that the Hungarian partridge is |
being established with remarkable success in the Can
adian western provinces. This bird will thrive in lati
tudes farther north than many of the present game
birds of the States or Canada and should do well along
the coast of Alaska, especially the Westward. It is to be
hoped that the U. S. Biological Survey and the Alaska
Game Commission can get together on a program of
introduction of game birds into the Territory along
with their plans for the fourfooted animals.
The pen is mighty, all right, but it’s hard to get
our worst crooks into the pen.
The president of Ecuador quits and his resignation
is refused. Sir Tommy Lipton is resigned, but refuses
to quit.
Violations of game laws are increasing, according!
to reports received from many state game departments,
and the officials of the American Game Protective As
sociation are wondering if the spirit of fair play and
true sportsmanship is passing with the old hunter and
fisherman.
