The Boolts W01 Positively Close ai That loft aid Tiger B
A Nevada Man's Spirited Indorsement of Hornsilver's Most Promising Gold Producer
TO WHOM IT MAY CONCERN: '
These days when the papers seem to be full of investment propositions in the way of mining, it Is well for the public to thoroughly ,
: investigate the property in which they contemplate taking stock. . . . ; ' :'',
I wish to say for the Tiger Butte Gold Mining Company, of Nevada, that I have been intimately and actively connected with its
affairs since the day of its, inception. The property is practically owned by half a dozen business men-of Goldfield. . Th records of the '
company show that over ninety-five per cent of the money derived from the sale of stock has gone jnto actual development of the, property; J
the balance has been used in advertising, stationery and stamps. No officer of the company has ever drawn a five-cent piece for any service, y ,
he ever rendered. The time the properties were purchased, besides the cash consideration, blocks of stock were given. - Today every share b v
- of the promotion stock of this company is in pool in a. safe deposit vault of a bank in Goldfield, and -it has been there since the organ- , "
ization of the company three years ago. The understanding was when it was put in there that it would not be withdrawn until the mine
was either on a dividend paying basis or has proved tp be absolutely worthless. In the latter case the holders of this stock arethe largest ; ,
losers but their unbounded faith in the property makes them take this method of protecting the stockholders, v y , (
It is a common thing for a company, to . be organized and advertise the sale of treasury stock, and when it comes to be delivered
to the purchaser promotion stock is substituted," with the xesult that the money goes into the promoter's pocket instead of intothe ground.
I recommend the purchase of Tiger Butte stock on its merits. I believe it will .be .worth much more money in a very short while. V

le 12 Ce, 'Again'
The Shares of Tiger Butte Are Now 5 Cents Each
We have only a remnant of 25,000 to go at this price. There has been some lively buying the past few days. People have been taking
this stock as if it were hot biscuits buttered and honeyed "to suit the taste."
"AND THERE NEVER HAS BEEN ANOTHER MINING PROPOSITION ADVERTISED IN THE OREGON DAILY JOURNAL
THAT, AS AN INVESTMENT. HAS EQUALED THIS ONE.
These shares are worth every farthing of 25c each, but we are selling for 5c because we MUST have a hoist to get the ore out of the
'mine, andpwe cannot get it without the money. '
:THIS IS THE REASON WE SELL THESE SHARES AT 5c EACH, BUT THE SALE WILL END MONDAY, MAY 18, AT 6. P. M.
- -Those who would double their money a thousand times ought not to delay another day in placing. their orders. We cannot promise
that v can fill them even late on Monday. , m I

An !ntrt In th Frlabe leaa on
the Hornailvar Klna ground, at Horn
allYer, waa purchased yesterday by John
H. Hobbs. Tha conaideratlon could not
b learned, but tha fact that ha haa in
veated any money waa tha cauaa of gen
aral comment
it la known that any propoaltion he
roaa into muat look pretty good to him
lie la no email fellow, and when naked
about thie investment, I indicated from
hie remarks that it waa only a flyer
on his own account People who re
turned from the camp yesterday aay
that the find made on the Frtahe hlnnk
of jrround la Immense.
There te a little history connected
with Hobba and Frlabee that Is intereat
inf. The latter shipped the first car
load of or from the Cripple Creek dis
trict and tt oame from the Gold King,
In Poverty gulch. The ore went at the
rate of about $100 a ton. and the news
of a shipment of that kind spread all
over the state. Scores of mining In
vestors flocked to the southwest alopo
of Pike's Peak, where the camp of
Cripple Creek is located, and many of
them approached the lucky owner of the
mine. - One of them ot It, and the con
sideration waa 136,000. , , - 1
Frlabee felt good, a a he waa able to
square all his Indebtedness and buy a
home at Colorado Springs. He even
went to the extent of investing la ev
dlamond and a fur coat -' -
Within a few months the Gold King
was sold for $260,000, and In leas than
Of $760,000, and It could not be bought
today at that figure, after being worked
for IS years. i -
. Then Frisbee -wandered all over the
United States and Old- Mexico in an ef
fort to And .another mine. Nearly four
years, ago he came to Ooldfleld, and
after looking around a little was In
duced to go to Lids, and until the Horn
;'.lT,r "citement broke out be has been
diligently at work in an effort to open
up a mine. That little knoll known as
Lime Point may give him another King.
John Hobba, whom everybody - calls
"Johnny" for short and who haa a smile
ss willing and broad as any seen on
the faces of Benny Rosenthal or Joe
Hutchinson, started into the' mining
business some 12 years ago, and he has
made it a success. His addrasa at the
present time Is No. 1 Wall street: at
least, there la where bla business office
Is, but his home Is where he hangs up
his hat. He came with the antes party.

here for their health. Big propoaitlons

Xushaad Too Stingy
George F. Hitter was so stingy that
he made his lunch on bologna, dough
nuts and sour wine, without inviting nis
wife to join In the feast, according to
the testimony of -Mra- Matilda. K liter.
She said he sometimes munched his
frugal meal -on he front poroh and
sometimes In the kitchen. He would
not buy potatoes .baoause they cost too
much. Once when she was sick,' she
said, Ritter-purchased a bottle of medi
cine, but would not give It to her until
she had paid him CO cents for it.' Be
sides the starvation treatment, Mrs. Rl ti
ter stated, she was occasionally kicked
and abused. Once he locked her in a
room and stole her clothes, finding this
an effective way of keeping her pris
oner. They were married in 1906.
Because he rhashed his teeth like a
wild beast, called her a r rafter and a
bluffer and pounded the dinner table
at which they were seated until the hot
coffee flew into her face, Mra. Charlotte
Nordean found life with John Nordean
unconrenlal. His rase was provoked
because she asked him for money. Ho
offered to give her an order on one
Michael Laffew, but she happened to
know that Laffaw did not owe him, and
told him so. Then came the disastrous
pounding on the table. Two weeks
after they were married, said Mrs. Nor
dean, her husband came home unsteady
with drink and called her names. Fre
quently he raised a rumpus when under
the influence of liquor, ao she-was
afraid to stay under the same roof.
They were married April 6, 1607.
. Bad jTames and Desertion.
"Liar." fool," "hypocrite" and '"heath
en" were some of the pet names uand
by Julius F. Prohl in speaking to his,
wife, according to the testimony of Mrs.
Clara S. Prohl. She said he also as
saulted and choked her. They were
married in 8L Helens, Oregon, In 190S.
Mrs. Lulu Luckey made an unlucky
choice when she was tied to Jesse Bay
Luckey, for only six weeks after they
were married her husband sent ' her
home and never returned to her. ' He
promised to follow in a few days, but

TWO BALLOT BOXES AT
ROCKl'OOD-FMRVIEl'
Difference In Port and Pre
cinct Lines Kequires Spe
cial Equipment.
County Clerk Fields this morning
reached a decision to use a double set
of ballot boxes In Falrvlew and Rock
wood precincts at the coming election,
this being the only way to overcome the
difficulty tn. the oonfliot of preolnot and
Port of Portland lines. These precincts
ara partly within the Port of Portland
boundaries, but mostly outside, and It
would be Illegal to allow those living
outside to vote on the Port of Portland
appropriation measure that Is to be on
the ballot
By the method adopted each voted In
the two precincts named will be asked
where he lives when he comes to vote.
If he Is Inside the port boundaries, he
will be given a ballot containing the
port proposition, but It outside this
will be omitted from the ballot that Is
given him. The . ballots will then be
deposited In separate boxes and -the
judges will be able to keep the vote
straight v
This morning county Clerk Fields
had not yet decided how he would ar
range the names of the candidates for
justices of the peace on the ballot
Three of the candidates consulted with
him this morning, but. they did not
agree In their views. E. H. Cahalln,
the Democratic nominee, contends that
the grouping should be alphabetical, in
stead of by parties. If his idea Is
adopted he will be second on the ballot,
coming after J. W. Bell, one of the Re
publican nominees. Otherwise- Bell and
Fred L. Olson, the two Republicans,,
will precede him under, the' party desig
nation. Mr. Fields will decide this aft
ernoon. . .
