A Neglected Grave.

The Reno Gazette says: A little
mound of dirt on the side of the
Glendale road, just below town,
marks the spot where lay the re-
mains of the first man who died
after the railroad reached this
station. He was a stage driver for
Woodruff s. Ennor, on their Idaho
line, and died OF smallpox, nearly
16 years ago. L. W. Lee is fenc-
ing in the place for stock corral,
and, as the body was not laid deep
in the ground, but only covered
shaliowly with dirt and rocks. the
authorities should have it taken mp
and removed to the cemetery. The
first time a band of wild steers
20 around the corral the skeleton
will be uncovered and exposed. 1t
should be looked after.

The Chronicle Of last night gives
the following report Of the experts
opinion Of the north end strike
After the visitors had finished
their inspection, reascended to the
surface, taken a warm bath OF
water and a cold ditto of whisky,
the Chronicle reporter applied his
pump. The first reservoir Of in
formation applied to was Mr..
Joseph r. Ryan, very level-head-
ed and experienced observer. Mr..
Ryan considered the outlook Tor
downlook) very favorable. The rel
alive pitch of the vein walls prov ed
that the vein was widening rapidly,
and he judged the distance ex-
posed along the top to be about 60
feet. The winze was on Saturday
down about % feet, and the work
was being rushed at that point.
N1essrs. Boyle, E gan, Mcdowell
and Finlen held about the same
views, although "Miles' is
known to be extremely careful and
conservative in the matter of ex
pressions of any kind-said he
would like to see more of i" be-
fore committing himself to the pos
tive declaration that was bonanza.
He had three assays made, one of
which from the Sierra Nevada
drift showed spas, of which
SPOTS was gold-an unusually
high per cent of that metal. The
other assays were not over Sc. He
said he had given it "a fair shake"
in taking the sample-that he
gathered it all along the face of the
drift-good, bad and indifferent.
Mr.. Thompson, Of Douglass &
Thompson, said he didn't know
anything about mine when he saw
it. He only went down "for a
sweat and he got it.

Null and Void.

Yesterday afternoon Thos. Moore,
contractor for the Nevada Il Oregon
railroad. the famous 3O-mile rail-
road that runs out of Reno and
strikes toward the north, was heard
in the U. S. District Court in his
suit against the trustees of the
road. It was suit in equity to
restrain the road from issuing any
more stock. Judge Sabin decided
that the issue of 10000 shares was
null and void, and issued an order
restraining the company from max
ing any further transfer Of stock.
This wipes out 100000 worth of
stock at single lick.

Fairs Divorce SNft.

The Virginia Footlight publishes
the following:
To-day a Footlight reporter
called at the County Clerks Office
and asked Clerk Flanningham if
there had been any papers filed in
his Office relative to Mrs. Theresa
Fair bringing action against James
G. Fair to dissolve the bonds of
matrimony now existing between
them, The usually truthful Conn
ty Clerk looked surprised at the re-
porter, and said that no papers had
been filed to-day. The representa-
tive Of the Footlight believed the
County Clerk, but took look at
the records to satisfy himself that
the County Clerk had made no mis-
take and was rewarded by finding
upon the book the case, numbered
s5722 Theresa Fair VS.. James G.
Fair which had been recorded
yesterday. so the Clerk did not tell a
lie, but only equivocated. The
suit is brought by Mrs. Fair on ac-
count of alleged adultry on the
part of Nevada's great Senator.
Mrs. Fair charges her husband
with committing the crime of adul-
try with one Fanny Smith at
house on Jessie street. San Fran
cisco, California, sometime in No
vember, 1881. Nevada's statesman
is also charged with breaking the
Seventh Commandment, by having
illicit intercourse with Inez Leon
ard at the southwest corner of Post
and Dupont streets, San Francisco,
on the 9th of April, 1888. The
plaintiff says she has not lived with
defendant since she became cog
infant OF the facts as presented by
her. Plaintiff also states that she
was married to defendant in Gala
varas county, California, in De-
cember, 1868 and the issue of said
marriage was four children, viz:
James G.. Fair, Jr., aged 20 ygars !;
Charles Lewis, aged Is years;
Theresa Alice, aged Is years, and
Virgins. aged 8 years. Senator
Fair was in town yesterday, but left
last evening for San Francisco on
important business. It is needless
to say that the sympathy of the
Comstock is with Mrs. Fair.

yate interview of the "dear little
drift" the reporter went for him.
Mr.. Gillig said it was mistake.
He had not been in the mine at all.
He said that the condition Of af-
fairs in the mine had been
stated in very candid man
ner by the management, and that
he had no desire to see the pros
pect. "Those who went down"
said Mr.. Gillig good-naturedly,
didn't make the trip for the pur-
posed of seeing a bonanza, but to
view what reported to be an
excellent prospect. Had bonanza
been in sight the stock wouldn't be
selling for 81 per share.
Mr.. Tisdale, one of the visitors,
took a piece of ore from the hang
ing wall in the Sierra Nevada drift,
in which he said he could see free
gold. Several of those to whom he
showed it laughed at the idea. He
had it assayed this morning, with
the result: gold, $554 70; silver,
$18 S5-total. 1913 SIS per ton.
This looks as if Mr.. Tisdale was the
best guesser on free gold.
Superfntendents Patton and Ly-
man escorted the visitors in their
underground tour, and gave them
every possible facility to see all
that could be seen.

Mrs. Malloy's stock Troubles.

Yesterday Bridget Malloy was
arraigned in Justice Cary's court
along with Patrick Malloy, her hus-
band, ON the charge Of disturbing
the peace.
Mrs. NIalloy thus gave Justice

of the trouble:

SENATOR WADE HAMPTON delivered an
Grafton at Camden, s. c., yesterday, at the
unwilling Of the Confederate monument that
every manly man, whether at the North or
the South, will read with pleasure and
heartily indorse. The gallant old soldier
sr.oke for the section for which ne fought
lust as all sensible people at the South
would have him speak. While rever-
ing aud honoring the pss', he coun-
seIed continu auce OF the conscientious sup
part of the constitution euch az the men OF
the South have given ever since the close OF
the civil war without 10 the least trenching
~on their seIfrespeci. AS Gov, Butler, oil
Massachusetts, said in welcoming the CONT
neutals, of New Orleans, to Boston, the men
Of the South during the great contest, the
sorroWs and trials Of which are fss. feceding
into history, fought as those OF the
North did, for what they believed was
right. As Senator Hampton says, it was
civil war, and net rebellion in any sense
il was a war between the States on questions
that had come down from the earliest days
of the constitution, and which could MOI
have been settled in any other way. Wher
the extremes of South Carolina and Mss,a
chusetts thus meet on so vital question, VIZ
NAV easily conclude that we have passed
into the era of calm reflection, and are fas
approaching a conclusion to be unani
mously indorsed by both sections, that the wal
was inevitable; that the responsibilities fol
it are even, and that its best result is th'
re-est.blishment of the Union on a NOR,
lasting foundation and the binding of the
States on basis OF mutual respect and com
mon hopes impossible before the great strug
gle took place.

that his long pending SUIT wi h Miss Lizzie
Charles had been settled by the payment OF
10000 by him, the lady, in consideration
thereof, releasing all claims upon him. Mr..
Brinkley, in reply to questions, said that
the rumor as stated TO him was substantially
correct, and that while he would have pre-
ferred not 10 have had it published, it was
perhaps best that il should be. He said,
further, that it was a subject that he did not
like 10 talk about, and that he had nothing
more to say. The history of this case has
been so often written up, ard ia so we'll
known, that it is unnecessary 10 60 into de-
tails. Suffice it to say that it grew out of
an escspade in Mr.. Brinkley's younger
days, when he became infatuated with
the handsome daughter OF the proprietor of
the old Washington Street Theater, who was
teaching school at Iuks, aud took her with
him to New YORK, the couple registering at
the hotels in that city as man aud wife. By
the laws of that State this constituted legal
marriage, and when Mr.. Brinkley disclaimed
any such intention ihs lady commenced suit
fer a divorce, with alimony, in which she
was successful M. Brinkley left New York
and since tina. time has never again vsntured
within the borders OF that State, as he was
liable 10 imprisonment and other penalties
for disregarding the orders of the Court A
few weeks ago Miss Charles came 10 the city
and opened negotiations, through her attor-
neys, for compromise, with the result sbovs
stated, thus ending one of the most celebr sted
cases in the legal history of the country
Miss Charles, during the past ten years, ha
devoted herself to literature, writing one o.
more books of NO special merit, and is now
contributor to a number of magazines.
