Dust to Dust
By IRVIN S. COBB
IN THE rinenut mining region of Nevada during the carlyninetles,
rich gold-bearing veins were discovered in the foothills. There was
a tremendous rush of prospectors from neighboring mining towns -ana
rinenut became the centre of much activity. Unfortunately, it proved
to be a superficial bonanza and petered out m a short -time. A few
fanatics still lingered on hopeful, and one of the "hangers ; on had the
bad taste to die? It was the custom in the new mining camps the
District Recorder to perform the services of the church and to lay to
rest those who expired with or without their boots cn.
This particular funeral took place in the dry bed of the cree A
hole six by two by three had been scooped from the gravel. The body
TheRceV? a Book of Common Prayer, read the sen-ices
m 'Yroughnothing into this world and ye shall take nothing out."
The coffin was lowered by horny hands.
"The Lord giveth and the Lord taketh away. Blessed be the name
of the Lord. Dust to dust." - . i v.- u
Reaching down he gathered a handful of dirt and gravel which
sifted through his fingers and felr with a rattaplan upon the wooden box.
"Ashes to ashes." ,
But instead of either dust or ashes the gleam of a nugget flashed
back from the coffin lid. There it lay, resurrected from the eternal
glacier while the lamented was being returned to the mould.
Without a moment's hesitation the Recorder dropped his prayer
book, jumped into the grave, heaved the deceased out of the property
and exclaimed in a loud voice:
"I claim everything seven nunarea ana nny leet onu ami ouum
six hundred feet East and West. Everybody get off these premises!"

Do You Know Why?
Sherman Hardaway asked the
writer why people shake hands with
the right hand instead of the left. We
confessed ignorance as to the matter.
He explained that most people are
right handed and that in the early
dawn of civilization that every man
considered every other man his
enemy and when convinced that the
one he met was his friend extended
the right hand as evidence of his
friendliness, so the custom was orig
inated. JOLLY WORKERS
