To Contest the Lux wiz.

A San Francisco telegram states
that it is said that Jesse Potter, the
son of Mrs Charles Lux, will take
the risk of the forfeiture Of legacy
in an attempt to get for himself the
100000 left by his mother. Pot
ter is the son of Mrs. Lux by her
first husband. When the widow of
the cattle king died her estate con-
sisted almost entirely of one quart
er interest in the cattle firm Of Mil
Ter & Lux She left 100000 in
cash to her son and made number
of smaller requests to relatives and
charity. The remainder amounting
to over 100000, was left in trust,
the income to be paid Jesse Potter
during his life. When Potter dies
the estate is to be divided among
his son and two of Mrs Lux's
sisters. A clause in the will pro-
vides that in case any Of the legatees
contest the will he shall forfeit his
legacy. It is claimed by the people
who are fighting Henry Miller to
make him wind up their affairs Of
the firm, that Potter is under his
influence and follows his orders.
If the will be broken and Potter
gets the entire estate the distribu-
ton of the estate will be entirely
delayed. Potter is now executor Of
the estate of Charles Lux, and the
other heirs of Lux have commenced
proceedings to have him removed on
the ground that he is incompetent
to manage the affairs of the estate
and that he is combining with Mil
Ter to avoid the dissolution of the
firm.

Let any victim of the liquor hab-
it eat tomatoes, sprinkled with salt,
consuming as much each day as
possible. Let the eating of to-
matoes and salt to excess be con-
tinued for several days and the toma-
to eater will find liquor offensive,
undrinkable, or if drunk, ungrateful

will be thrown up. This is the

BY local Applicant ons as they cannot reach the
diseased portion of the ear, There is only one
way to cure deafness, and that is by constitu-
tianal remedies Deafness is caused by an in
famed condition of the eustachian tube. When
this tube is infamed you have rumbling
sound or imperfect hearing, and when it is en-
tirely closed, deafness is the result. and unless
the Inflammation can be taken away and this
tube restored to its normol condition, hearing
will be destroyed forever. Nine cases out OF
ten are caused by catarrh which is nothing
but an infiamed condition of the mucous sur
faces.

DEATH OF DIR. ). 9. nAzLErr.
A Prominent Nevada Pioneer Passes
Away s fter short Illness.

At twenty minutes to five O'Clock
last Thursday morning DR.. J. G.
Hazlett, of this place, died at his
residence, after an illness of less
than three weeks. The disease that
caused death was severe attack
of cholera morbus. Three weeks ago
tonight the DIR. visited Sutro, and
upon returning home somewhat
chilled partook Of a light lunch and
retired. That night he was taken
i'll, and for several days suffered
greatly, being confined to the house,
but not to his bed until three days
before death came. Last Monday
the disease became alarming and DIR.
Manson was summoned from Vir-
ginia City. He pronounced the i'll
ness a dangerous one, and all care
was taken and every remedy used
to bring about a recovery, but all
to no purpose.
DR.. Hazlett at the time of his
death was a few months past 81
years of age, his birthday being the
10Th day of May. He was native
of Louiston, Mif1in county, Penn,
was of Scotch-Irish parentage, Of
sturdy build and commanding APP
pearance When young man he
moved to Winchester, Virginia,
where he studied medicine and
graduated form the Winchester
Medical College. After graduating
he practiced medicine in Virginia
for about ten years, and then came
westward to Onawa, Iowa. There
he remained but a short time, and
crossing the plains stopped in Day
ton in 1862 Here it will be well to
state that before coming West the
DR.. was one of the first volunteer
physicians to offer his services at
Pittsburg during the fearful cholera
epidemic there in 1852 Since 1862
the DIR. has been a resident of Day
ton. In 1864 he married, and he
and his wife have resided in the
same house in which they were mar
ried from that time until death
parted them-over 81 years. DR..
Hazlett leaves a widow and one
daughter, Mrs. d. P. Randall, be-
sides a host of friends throughout the
State, to mourn his demise Words
are but obtuse things with which to
express the sympathy that the en-
tire community feels for the widow
and daughter in their hour of deep
sadness.
From the time DIR. Hazlett arriv-
ed in Nevada he has been one of
the prominent men of the State. In
! 1870 he was elected Senator from
Lyon county and served his con-
stituants faithfully for four years in
that capacity. In 1874 he was the
nominee of the Republican party of
Nevada for Governor of the State,
but was defeated by Gov. Bradley.
Later on he was elected District At
torney of this county, and all times
when measures of Importance to the
county were brought up his council
and advice were eagerly sought.
DIR. HAzlett, at the time of his
death was Grand Master Mason of
this State. a position he greatly
priced, and one which he declared
he would rather hold than be Gov
ernor. He was also a Knight Temp
lar, being a member Of the Virginia
City Commandery. He was prom
inent Odd Fellow as we'll, and was
Past Grand Master of that Order.
In both Orders he was leader, and
to his able advice and wise admon-

brethren have turned out some excellent
players the color line has been drawn
very closely around the major body, and
no colorcd man ever got into those ranks.
Tho Chicago club some years ago refused
to play a game with club In Ohio be-
cause negro catcher was on the nine.
There Is going To be a great rush by
National league clubs this fall for young
players. The success OF Clayk, Collins,
O 'Brien, Hoffer, Blake, Ely, Cooley, Sell
bach, Dolan, Everett, Miller, Clingman,
Foreman, Orth, Anderson, Lachanoe and
Carey has created craze to gather in the
promising minor league stars.
The plan which most OF the big clubs
will use will be to farm them out until
they develop into major league players
The Brush plan Is seriously contemplated
by several of the clubs, especially by the
New Yorks. That is the purchase OF a
minor league franchise where these new
recruits can be placed and used until de-
veloped as needed in the National league.
Brush owns the indianapolis club OF the
western league as we'll as the Cincinnati
club of the national league. IL Is bis GUS
tom when n player shows too weak for the
major company To transfer him TO the
other team. IL has been "A sort of academic
school for undergraduates Next spring
Mr.. Brush proposes TO put five or six OF
this seasons indianapolis players into tho
Cinsinnati team and try them. Those that
come up to the requirements will stay.
Those that do not will 20 back to school
again for another season.
The system of farming out players has
been practiced 10 some extent by the big
clubs. The New Yorks had Bannon and
Butler with the Scrantons on those con-
ditions. But the Bostons' experience with
Collins has had dampening effect on the
EARNING" business. Collins was farmed
TO the Louisvilles last spring. IL was
agreed between the Boston and Louisville
clubs that tho former might at any time
recall Collins by paying the Louisvilles
$500. About a month ago the Bostons
pulled the string" Lowe was injured
and they needed Collins. That young man
blocked proceedings by refusing to leave
Louisville. He was uIier contract there
and he didn't relish beng called in as a
utility man. Then President Young had
to come to the rescue, and he ordered the
Louisville club to play Collins no more on
their nine under penalty Of forfeiting any
game I'm which the obstinate player partic-
ipated. Tho latter thereupon returned to
his home In Buffalo and refuses to join the
Bostons.
Meanwhile the New Yorks have signed
young left handed pitcher named Dohe-
ny and Davis, late captain of the Paw
tucket team. They have also Butler of the
Southern league and Clark of the Scran-
tons on their roll, while more young
blood will be added Mt once. The Bostons,
Brooklyns, Chicagos, Cincinnatis and
Pittsburgs are also reaching out in n search
for new stars. The cry is for the coming

OLD MAN AsPHYXIATED.
His Death Was Probably the Result
of an Accident.

Albert Harris Clarke, 20 years old, was
found dead in bed by his daughter-in-
law. Mrs. Ira +. Clarke this morning, at
their home, 36e Willard avenue. Mr..
Clarke had been slightly demented for
sometime and was also suffering from
bronchitis. He went TO bed as usual last
evening, and about o'clock this morn
ing, Mrs. Clark heard him walking about
his room but did not pay any attention
TO the incident. Later. when she went
TO his room TO call him Tor breakfast,
she got no answer and upon going TO the
bedside found him dead. Mrs. Clarke
detected the smell of gas in the room,
and found that the old gentleman had
turned the gas on with suicidal intent,
or had accidently Neglected TO shut it off
properly upon retiring. One OF the win
dows of his room was found open, and it
is supposed that he did that when heard
by Mrs. Clarke at 80 o'clock, and at that
hour he woke up and detected the smell,
and crawled to the window and opened
II, but the gas had done its work, on
account of his advanced age. Medical
Examiner Palmer was NOTED and said
that the death was from natural causes.

Cuppy's Queer style.
There are almost as many styles Of pitch-
ing as there are pitchers. Nearly every
twirler has his peculiar pose while deliver
ing bail. Perhaps George Cuppy of tho
Cleveland club has preliminary motion
which is more distinctly original than
that used by any pitcher In the major
league. He stands squarely facing the
batsman and takes plenty Of time while
looking him over, as If trying TO read his
weakness. Then he raises both arms slow
ly above his head with the ball grasped
ready to pitch. But he doesn't pitch. The
arms remain upheld as II he were in the
power of road agents. Sometimes he makes
a half motion as II about to deliver the
ball. but doesn't. This high handed busi-
ness sometimes continues for Is seconds
until the crowd, In evaporation, begins to
shout: "Play balll Pitch the bal ~ Final
ly he lets the right arm sweep Sscwn and

ball Is delivered to the batsman.
