Gone to His Long Rest.

Fred Bertsch, notice of whose
death appeared in Saturdays paper,
was native of Germany, having
been born there on the End day of
September, 1889. When he was
about fifteen years Of age he and an
older brother came to America, and
settled at Bethlehem, Pennsylvania,
where he resided for several years
and afterwards removed to Califor-
mia, going by water around Cape
Horn. He lived in that State until
1869 when he came to this county
and settled in Ruby Valley, where he
has resided ever since.
Last Tuesday the 18th instant, he
was watching some horses in corral,
which he had driven from the field,
and about two hours afterwarG a hired
man came in from blowing and found
him lying on the ground in an uncon-
ciou5 state, with his head and face
badly bruised, and it is supposed
that he was kicked by one of the
horses. He was taken to the house
and messenger was dispatched to
Halleck Station and telegraphed here
for DIR. Henderson who immediately
left for the scene of the accident. The
DR.. arrived there and done everything
that medical aid could to save his
life and when he left Mr.. Bertsch was
resting easier. Friday he took turn
for the worse and DR.. Henderson and
DR.. Mcdowell were Immediately
summoned, but before they arrived
the unfortunate man had passed to
the other shore.
Deceased was we'll known in Elko
county, having lived in Ruby Valley
for twenty five years, and was held in
high esteem by all who knew him.
He was man of sterling integrity, a
true friend and a highly respected
and honored citizen whose every
deed was just and kind. He leaves a
widow and two small children to
mourn the loss Of a loving and indul-
gent husband and father, whose un-
blemished life will act as a guiding
star to steer them straight through
this world of care and sorrow and pre-.
pare them for the end which all must
meet. The sympathy Of the whole
community is extended to the grief
stricken widow and children in this
their hour Of profound grief and we
point them for consolation to "Him
who doeth all things we'll"

The True WAY.

Several amendments to the consti-
tuition will be submitted to the voters
this Fall, and among them is one that
requires that person must be able
to read aloud the Constitution of the
United States and the State of Ne
vada before he is allowed to register
or vote. This is the true way to get
the government into the hands of in
telligent people, and have the State
ruled by American instead of foreign
votes. 1t will do more to purify the
ballot than all other things combined
The people should vote for this
change by all means. 1t is a move
to have an American State controlled
by American votes.-Lyon Co. Times.

Fifty Dollars q Shot.

A story Is told of a young minister
who, on going to new church, was
told by the official brethren that his
salary would be $1,000, and that, as
every Summer wholesale liquor
dealer visited the town with his fam
lily and paid regularly $50 for a pew
In the church, it would be policy for
the minister to touch the liquor cues
ton gently. The young man replied:
lake $50 off my salary, for I want to
get shot at that pew.-Ex.
