Wanted in Palestine.

About 3 o'clock this morning
Officer Dawson arrested Louis Mar
sham, boy about 10 years of age,
on the charge of being suspicious
character. When searched he had
on his person a pairOf brass knucks,
and another charge was preferred.
Marsham has a bad reputation,
judging from his own statement,
and has travelled over all parts of
the United States. He was fined
$25 for carrying brass knuckles and
the case of suspicion was continued
until word could be received from
Palestine, where he is wanted for a
serious crime, the nature of which
is not known.

BROKE HER ARM.
A Sixty Five-Year-old Lady Falls
and Wants $4,000 From the
City.


Margaret l.. Dickson today filed
a petition with the city clerk for a
claim of $1,000 for personal injuries
received. She is sixty five years
of age, weighs about 900 pounds
and keeps boarding house at POI
North Laredo street. On the
morning ofJuly 81, last, she was
walking along Laredo street, when
she slipped and fell. The fall was
occasioned by the poor condition
of the sidewalks, especially so af-
ter a rain, and it had just rained
previous to her accident.
The sidewalks are said to be
constructed improperly and are
rendered unsafe for pedestrians.
The sidewalks are laid with flat
rocks of different sizes and shapes,
the edges of the walks being very
thin. Mrs. Dickson claims she was
unaware of the poor condition of
the walk and she slipped and fell
to the ground, breaking her arm
aud severely bruising her hip and
other parts of her body. She is
thereby rendered unable to attend
to duties and her sole support as
we'll as that of three little grand
children, orphans, is dependent
upon her own eXertiOns.

An Odd Sight.

A strange sight was seen on
Market street. 1t was three prairie
schooners containing the family,
household goods, machinery, i'm
pliments, ETC., several horses, some
of which were ridden by the far
mer's sons or daughters. The far
mer was changing location, but
who he was or where was going
none can say. The sight was pecu-
liar and reminded old timers OF
the days when raj lways were not,
and all traffic was done by mules,
hors es and burros.

KNOWLEDGE

Brings comfort and improvement and
tends to personal enjoyment when
rightly used. The many, who live bet
ter than others and enjoy life more, with
less expenditure, by more promptly
adapting the worlds best products to
the needs of physical being, will attest
the value to health of the pure liquid
laxative principles embraced in the
remedy, Syrup Of Figs.
Its excellence is due6o its presenting
in the form most acceptable and pleas
ant to the taste, the refreshing and truly
beneficial properties Of a perfect lax
ative; effectually cleansing the system
dspelling colds, headaches and fevers
and permanently curing constipation.
1t has given satisfaction to millions and
met with the approval of the medical
profession because it acts on the Kid
neys, Liver and Bowels without weak
ening them and it is perfectly free from
every Objectionable substance.
Syrup of Figs is for sale by all drug
gists in SOC and 81 bottles, but it is man
ufactured by the California Fig Syrup
Co. only, whose name is printed on every
package, also the name, Syrup of Figs,
and being well informed, you will not
accept any substitute if offered.

tain range in that locality revealed the
fact that all of the region was underlaid
with coal. 1t iH similar to that used in
the iron works near Glasgow, Scotland.
The territory examined contains about
300 square miles.
Extensive iron deposits were found in
valley about 10 miles west of the
Wahsatch mountains. The grestest
mass of iron ore now known to exist
crops out in ridges or buttes, some ris-
ing $50 feet above the level OF the
plain at their base. Samples OF the ore
have been carefully analyzed and found
to contain 20 to 81 Per cent OF iron. The
ore is OF the magnetic and hematite
varieties.
Besides these deposits there are other
mining interests of importance along
the line OF the Nevada Southern route
which were visited by Mr.. Mulholland.
Samples of the iron and coal were
shown and can now be examined at the
office OF Hazard & Townsend.
Mr.. Schoield was introduced and
spoke briefly concerning the wonderful
resources OF the country. His tour had
been one Of investigation. He had
visited the principal mineral localities
OF Southern Nevada and had had the
previous glowing reports moat positively
confirmed. He went to the Pahrump,
Mesquite, Las Vagas, Resting Springs
and Amogosa valley, the Keystone, Yel-
low Pine and Shadow Mountain mining
districts Many mines had been opened
but could not be successfully developed
owing to there being no railroad near.
Mr.. Schofield was accompanied by Prof.
w. d. Austin, prominent expert OF
Denver, Col. Prof Austin has erected
smelling works in South America,
Japan, Russia and Transylvania region
in Europe but said he had never eeen
any country that presented the mineral
possibilities that the section visited ON
the trip with Mr.. Sehofeld did.
After general discussion the commit
tee took steps to procsed with the work
of interesting the people OF the city in
the project.
A limited number of pamphlets have
been issued, containing the report, Mr..
Mulholland's address, Mr.. Blake's pro-
position and other features of the enter
prise. They will be distributed to the
prominent citizens.
The committee has met with much
encouragement thus far, and the indica.
tions point to early construction of the
Nevada Southern railway. gf
