Dust to Dust

Goldfield, Nev., was made of gold dust in a mining boom of 1904. Last week, catching fire, it flashed a tiny epitaph across the sporting pages. It was famous--Shelbylike--for the Gans-Wilson fight in 1906. Previous to the fire, the inhabitants pointed with pride to a certain Main Street corner where stood the saloon in which Tex Rickard "made his start."
