Good Business Opportunity.

On account of various matters in
which he is interested demanding so
much OF his attention X. IL. Cowles
finds that he cannot devote the proper
amount of time to his grocery business
at Wadsworth and hereby announces
that he will sell for cash in hand, the
building at Wadsworth in which is
located his general merchandise store,
the lot on which it stands, a large fire
proof cellar, the stock OF goods on hand,
the good will, etc, ETC.. The goods are
all fresh, nothing .hop worn. The bus
mess is a prosperous one and the only
reason for selling is to enable MIR. Cowles
to give all of his time to other industries
in which he is engaged. Wadsworth is
the best business town in Nevada today
and this opening offers a splendid OPP
portunity for some good man to locate
in Wadsworth. Call on II. II. Cowles
at the store.

OPEN LETTER.

To the Honorable Board of Commission.
ers Of Wcshoe County: As all c. p. Il. r,
trains stop at Wadsworth longer than
at any other point in the State, this
town, daring summer season partleu-
larly, is over-run with that unemploy.
ed travelling army which consists prin-
cipally of tramps, buns and hobos.
The property Of our citizens suffers
more or less, the wives of railroad men
are intimidated when their husbands
are on the road, whlskey is peddled to
Indians, freight and passenger cars
are robbed, drunken brawls are nu-
merous and "hell in general" raised,
Our small village will not support
iuch u floating population which aver
ages from ten to fifty a day.
My experience has been that 5 per
cent of these people will work for a
meal and that 50 per cent will not.
The question resolves itself to this
"Citizens complain that they are not
properly protected, but the constable
spends half his time in moving along
these oilers. He receives no pay for
this service, and neither you nor |,
nor anybody else can make this bust
ness Il matter of love and at the same
time earn IA livelihood. We make no
arrests that We are not compelled to
make and still the cost to the county
Is seemingly greater than it should be,
considering the benefit derived. IVA
grancy" consists of II multitude of
misdoings, Yet at the end of the year II
cost OF $1,000 is charged to vagrancy
and some taxpayers howl. The prin-
cipal cost at Wadsworth is the mileage

and my principal objecG III writing
this letter is 10 request you to lake
some action In this matter, if it il
in your power to do so, to enable us IT,
keep such prisoners here and make
them earn their grub. We can then
do away with 50 per cent of the mile
age and the cost will greatly decrease.

HOW ABOUT THE TEA MARKET 4?
There Are 100000 Pounds
Here and as Much More Coming.
Spectators May Make the War an
Excuse for a "Corner."

There Is good deal OF talk to-day
among tea merchants regarding the pos

China and Japan on the price of tea.

found that there was n diversity OF

a rise in tea.

Not Known Whether He Committed
Suicide or Was Murdered.

PIERMONT-QN-T HE-H1LL, N. Y,
Aug. 3.-The dead body of Nicholas
Fagin. proprietor of the Mansion House,
one of the leading hotels here, was

Fagin had disappeared last Sunday,

cause he had recently attempted to
commit suicide by shooting. There was
no known reason for Fagin to take his
life, as he was healthy and prosperous
and had no domestic trouble.
The people here are greatly excited
over the matter, and are divided In opin-

or foul play.
