A DISCUSSED Ex-CoNvIcr.--Peter
Curto, who was recently discharged from
the State Prison at Carson by order Of
Judge Field, under recent decisions Of
the United States Spreme Court, is much
displeascd at the result. According to
the Carson Appeal he made the following
remarks on the subject: II was learning
the shoemaker's trade when the id
lawyers started IN to interfere. In few
months more would have been able to
cut and make shoe all by myself !
had no desire to get out until ! could
learn the trade, and then ! would have
had something to start with. Had /
been able to make shoes in the first place
would not have been passing counter
felt money. When man goes to prison
and wants to learn trade should think
he would be allowed to stay until he has
mastered the trade. As for myself, you
see, / have spent nearly two years there
for nothing. l was Just getting along
nicely, when that cur ed order came
from Judge Field. suppose no meant
we'll enough, but it's rough, on me.
The SISTERS HOSPITAL CLosED. The
Silver Reef correspondent Of the Frisco
Times says: "The hospital here is closed
for the present, the Sisters Of Charity
who had the institution in charge having
left for Salt Lake City Last week. l,
will probably remain closed, unless soms
other arrangements for running it arr
made. The sisters were we'll aatisied
here, but we understand that the ruloi
Of their order forbid them to locate per
manently in place where they canno
have a spiritual adviser. Father Cali
gan has been called away from here b,
his superiors, 90 there 10 no priest lef
here at present, and hence the sister
were compelled to leave. A movemen

leased at reasonable figure. In plac
! like this, where there are SO many mel
without homes Of their own and wher

pital is necessity. 1t is to be hope
that arrangements can be made.
