and practical as well as free from
mockmodesty. One evening re-
Gently while young man and his
best girl were snugly seated in a

There is considerable excitement
among Worlds Fair people in Wash
ington over n development. Byare-
markable and unexplainable mistake
in writing the official draft of the
World s Fair appropriation the wom-
ems board is given absolute control of
the $50. 900 for the Worlds Fair pre-
miums and drewards. and also it would
seem the entire power to appoint all
the Jurors, male and female, aud the
power to grant all rewards and pre-
ani4ms 40 sne WorIds FAR is byti =
draft given to women. The error
came by the clerk inserting the words,
lady managers, in the wrong space.

Mrs. Pope has a number of fine
Carolina poplar trees n sale. For in
formation call at ner residence.
Caboose S. P. 800 together with ron
tents embracing Conductor Bowers per-
sonal effects to the amount of $500, were
destroyed BY fire on Browns hill Tuesday
morning. Eugene Treusdale had both
hands and some hair burned. Cause
unknown but supposed TO be gasolene
vapor.
Union Church was crowdei last Sunday
night, all occasioned by the intelligence
that DR.. j. Z. Porter and wife would
favor the congregation with some vocal
music. 1t is needless to say their efforts
were highly appreciated and evidenced
by the expressions of those who attend
Il. II will assure them a hearty well
come whenever they come this way
again.
Last Tuesday night the property hold
ers and others residing in the neighbor-
hood of the schoolhouse were put to
considerable trouble and inconvenience
besides being badly frightned, all on
account of the ~janitor of the school
dumping ashes on the plaza. The high
wind famed the Goals aud the sparks
flew around promiscuously enough to
make the men turn out of their warm cots
and guard their premises for several
hours. 1t was dangerous thoughtlessness.
J. Ellsworth of New York State, by
virtue of the Civil Service, has been
appointed assistant teacher at the Pyr-
amid Lake Reservation. He has made
enquiries regarding our climate. Had
they been addressed to the DISPATCH
we would lose no time in telling him
that the last ma from the East died
within two months after landing, We
believe that we have q few hundred
competent Nevada girls who would be
glad to get the position and further
mor need it very mnch. Our Nevada
people are not educated up to the red
tape of Civil Service but they should
look into the matter as an avenue OF
employment.

Sudden Death.

Last Thursday night a Swiss ranch
hand by the name of Dolph died rath-
er suddenly neal Saltwater and as be
was hut twenty four years of age it
was supposed that his demise war due
TO other than natural causes. Inves-
tigation develope the fact that he
had purchased All ounce OF chloroform
At the Wadsworth drug store, saying
he wanted it TO ease a headache. Par
ties occupying the same room with
him remembered that he had arisen
during the night and as they heard
him at the well, presumed he had
gone for a drink of water. Some Of
them came to Wadsworth for a coffin
and while here learned OF his purchas-
ing the chloroform. A search at the
well resulted in the finding of the
cork and the empty bottle which had
contained chluroform. He must have
swallowed the chloroform at the we'll
and came back to the bed to die. He was
considered of unsound mind and sui
cided while in that condition. He has
a brother residing in Churchill county.
No reason is known why he should
wish to shuttle off in the manner he
did.

The Good Work Has Begun.

The street back of the business
houses is receiving u thorough clean
ing and the improvement is noticeable.
The teams furnished by Messrs. Don
aldson and Herman will soon make
short work Of the rubbish. The sew
ers will be connected and those liv.
ing in the neighborhood will be
correspondingly happy. II the people
Of the town will clean up the trash
around their residences and subscribe
enough to have it hauled away they
will merit the thanks of the communi-
ty. County Commissioner Crosby
would be doing a good action If he
would exercise the power of his office
and in the name of the law order the
n%eglectful to clean up their yard, and
also have the streets cleaned of all
rubbish.
It is very seldom the people of Wads-
worth put the county to any expense
but this work should be done. It is
expected that cholera will visit the
United States this summer, there il u
possibility of it, and we are on the
line of the railroad. An ounce Of r
vention is worth a pound Of cure.

Fight With A Robber.

BLOOMINGTON. Ills, Dec. 12.-A curi- ous attempt at robbery of an express car occurred late Saturday night at the crossing of the Lake Shore and Western and Illinois Central, mille and half southeast of this city. AS the west bound Lake Erie express train stopped for the crossing the glass of the door of the United States express car was smashed and Messenger Weekly, look ing up, saw 8 mans arm pass into the opening. The hand was reaching for the latch. Weekly rushed to meet the intruder. The messenger was unarmed, having laid his revolver beside pile of packages at the other end of the car.
 AS the door of the car opened the men grappled, the intruder grabbing the messenger by the throat. In the strug- gle which followed the messenger proed the victor, hurling the robber from the train to the ground.
 None of the train men noticed the struggle and the train proceeded with out molestation.
 Messenger Weekly's face and neck were badly scratched and bruised. There was S50O0 to S6O00 in sight in the car, as the messenger was ready to make transfer at the Bloomington union depot.

AN OLD LIAM
The State of Georgia to Try te Collect

II NsOtit tHe OoFeTumPnf.
 ATLANTA, Dec. 12.-The legislature has unearthed a claim against the gen. eral government growing out of an act of 1902. The general assembly has passed resolution looking to an in- vestigation into the facts about the ceding of property which now comprises Alabama and Mississippi with view to getting a settlement of the unpaid balance which it is alleged is due from the general government. Under an agreement made in 1902 this territory was ceded to the United States, the consideration being $l, 250, ,O00. It is claimed there is an unpaid balance of between S100, 900 and $200. GOO. Several efforts have been made ;n the past to secure settlement, but they have been futile. The resolution empowers t' 6 governor to appoint special attorney to pursue the matter at no expense to the state. he to receive a contingent fee. An effort was made to push this claim in 1911, but the war of 1918 cut It short. Another effort was eclipsed by the Mexican war, and just before the civil wsr the state was pre- pairing to press it's claim The super. stitions may think this last move pox- tends another fight of some kind.

MILWAUKEE, Dec. 12.-Argument opened in the circuit court yesterday in the case of United States Circuit Judge Jenkin charged with embezzle- ment and illegal banking Ex-Senator Spooner urged the court to separate the Jenkins case from others District At. torney Hammel and ex-Congressman Lafollette argued that Jenkins be tried with others. Jenkins counsel argued that the criminal indictment hanging over his head interfered with and em. barrassed him in presiding over his court. He wanted to take advantage of no technicalities or error by the grand jury. It is expected Judge Johnson will reserve his opinion.

The Alton. and Missouri Pacific Rail-
 ways Form a New Car Service.
 CHICAGO, Dec. 12.-Beginning Jan. l the Chicago and Alton and Missouri Pacific roads will com bine on a through car service between Chicago and points in Texas. The service will be daily both ways.
 No definite adyices as to the new line are given out by the management of the roads in interest, but the fact is un- derstood in passenger circles. The movement is 8 particularly interesting one, in that it puts another and pow erful competitor of the Rock Island and Santa Fe in the field for Chicago and Texas business. The Alton and Mis- souri Pacific have a strong following individually, and together they will at once prove popular in the new field. This is the first time that the two roads have been thus allied. For long time. however, the Union Pacific and Alton have worked jointly for Colorado and other western business.

A Peculiar Case.

OMAHA, Dec. 12.-On election day Grant Werst walked into the office of the United States marshal here and sur rendered himself. saying that he wanted to be arrested for robbing the Madison (Neb.) postoffice two years ago. He said the crime weighed heavily on his conscience. Since that time it has been learned he had served term in the Colorado penitentiary and had com mitted robbery in Kansas. His action looked very suspicious and the marshal has been trying to find out more nt Werst's record, thinking he wished to be sentenced for this crime and escape heavier penalty for some greater crime. Saturday Werst was arraigned and pleaded guilty to every indictment. Judge Dandy overrulei the plea and entered a plea of not guilty. The judge said this was very peculiar case and he wanted more time to investigate it.

AMOUNT SECURED LARGE.
The Express Car Looted and the Pas sengers Relieved of ysluables-The Thieves Escape-No New Develop
 ments In Plano Bank Robbery.

AUSTIN, Dec. 12.-A daring robbery was perpetrated near here yesterday morning. Robbers met the passenger on the International and Great North ern railroad few miles from here and compelled the engineer to sidetrack the train. They then proceeded to take all valuable packages from the express car. They forced their way into the messengers quarters and gathered everything in sight. AS soon as this was accomplished they visited the pas sengers and made them hand over their possessions.
 At this juncture they feared an at tack from the trainmen and sent fusi- lade toward the engine. The fireman received a slight wound The robbers became alarmed and made for the woods. In their hurry they lost val uable express package. It is thought the amount secured is large.
 They escaped, leaving no clew as to their identity. Officers are in pursuit.
