who was discharged from the coun-

having served a 80 days sentence
for selling whisky to Indians, was
killed near the Mound house last
Sunday night by being run over by
an ore train on the V. & T. He had
been around the Mound House dur

G. H. Rulison, superintendent of
the Douglass mill at this place, and
a mill man of wide experience, has
invented a machine for grinding ore
that is by far the finest thing OF the
kind ever seen. The machiue is a
combined rock breaker and grinder,
and the construction is very simple.
A trial lot of one hundred pounds Of
rock was put through the small one
now in operation at the mill, in eight
minutes. The rock is ground dry
and there is no necessity of beating
or roasting the hardest kind of
quartz before it is put through. Mr..
Rulison is thinking of taking out n
patent on the machine, and as soon
as 1t becomes generally known that
1t Is cheap and successful apparatus,
there will doubtless be quite num-
Der put into operation in the State.

A Minister i'm the Stripes.

A day or two since Nelson Wash
ingtou, an ex Baptist minister, was
brought here from Virginia to serve
a two years. sentence at the State
Prison for burglary. This is the
first instance of the kind in the his-
tory of Nevada, the clergy in this
State, of every denomination, being
gentlemen worthy of the cloth.
Nelson must have had fea-fully
slim and poor paying congregation.
AS he is an ex Baptist minister he
will probably be placed in charge of
the baths of the Prison.-1ribune.
Nelson was for some time a resi-
dent of Dayton, and while here was
known as hard working, industri-
Gus colored man. The papers have
been abusing HIM since his down.

About school Warrants.

There seems to be considerable oe
lay and trouble experienced by the
several School Districts of Mason
and Smiths Vallies in regard to the
drawing Of money from the county
treasury in payment Of their bills.
In Esmeralda county the trustees
have been in the habit of sending
the bills to the county Superintend-
ent of schools, who after examining
and allowing them, issues an order
to the Auditor to draw a warrant in
favor of the holder of such bill who
can draw the money from the treas
ury on the warrant by simply in
dorsing it. The law in relation to
the duties of County Superintendent
of schools reads: ale shall have
power, and it shall be his duty to
draw his order on the County Audit.
or in favor of the trustees of any
Shcool District in his county, for any
bill duly signed by said trustees"
etc. This law certainly makes il
the plain duty of the supt. to order
the warrants to be drawn by the
Auditor in favor of the trustees and
no one else, and the consequent pre-
sumption is that the trustees are the
proper persons to pay all bills against
their several districts after them.
selves having drawn the money from
the treasury on the Auditors war
rant ordered by the supt. The trus-
tees Of the new districts should re-
mem Der that all warrants in this
county are drawn in favor of trus =
tees and that they must indorse the
warrants CLERK of the Board is suf-
ficient,) or authorize some one to do
so for them, when such person, up
on presenting the authority of the
trustees 10 the Treasurer and indoors
| ing the warrant can draw the m oney.
II might be convenient for the trus.
tees to leave standing order with
the Treasurer authorizing some one
here in Dayton to indorse the school
warrants drawn in favor of the trus
tees of their districts; such person
could then draw and forward the
money as directed.
