went with the intention Of establishing him
sell in the law business at Johannesburg.
Judge Rising has returned to San Francisco.
He passed through Elko recently, and the
Silver Tdings of that place says;
Judge Rising was induced to make this
business visit from the extravagant reports
that reached him as to the richness of the
gold placer and rich gold lodges and agii-
cultural possibilities OF the country Upon
his arrival he soon found that a great deal
of these extravagant reports were simply
matter OF speculation ON the part Of mine
owners of that region. While it is true
that the surface of the mineral zone is very
rich in many places, yet they were only sur.
face or blank deposits and soon worked out,
and in fine the Beers as a people and their
government has much to learn and unearn
to make that country desirable place for
civilized people to live in.

BIG JOHN MORlARTY.
Said to BE the Tailest and Strongest Man
In Eastern Maine.


John Moriarty, known all over east
ern Maine as Barney Kelley's Giant"
died in oldtown hospital recently of
typhoid fever, says the Lewiston Even
ing Journal. He has been for nearly
two years employed as construction
hand on the Bangor g. Aroostook rail
road, and later on the new Ashland
branch, where he became sick.
Moriarty stood 6 feet 9A inches in
his stocking feet, and generally
weighed 240 pounds. Had he been fat
his weight would have been enormous.
But he was very lean. why" said
Barney Kelley, you could feed the
giant on porterhouse steak and eggs
and he wouldn't gain pound; but he
was an awful tough mani"
His arms We're very long and he had
hands as powerful as the paws OF n
gorilla. All over his body the muscles
stood out in Jumps and cords. and his
strength was immense. He could do as
much work as two ordinary men, and
on that account his services were al
ways in demand al more than common
wages. He was especially seryieeabie
as Il derrick mah---he could turn the
heavy crank all day without firing
An AZ was like TOY in his hands a
cant-dog like a walking stick He could
up end and shoulder ii small log or piece
of timber that two ordinary men could
barely lift, and in every department
OF hearty manual labor he was very
Hercules.
Many stories are told of the giants
mighty strength. Once, when two
saucy woodsmen "guyed'' him about
his towering height, he seized them by
the shoulders, one in each hand, and
knocked their heads together till their
teeth rattled-and they were two good
sized men.
At another time some toughs came
into barroom where he was and pro-
ceeded to clear the place out MORT
arty took them, two at time, and
pitched them half way across the street
as though they We're so many ninepins.

for alfalfa hay. This is very stiff price
considering that in Mason valley it is fed As

nothing, but after they had settled up their
bills they held meeting and decided to
feed no more cattle there As result the

no cattle are being driven in to eat it, Hay

Those Of His Brother
John F. Witty arrived today
from Springfield. Ohio. in answer to
Geographic information concerning
the death of Fred Neuman. supposed
to be a near relative, aud identified
the remains as those of his brother.
Thus the mystery of the unfortu-
Mates identity is at last made
clear. MIR. Witty said he had some
doubt on receiving the telegram
whether the deceased was really his
brother and came on to Rock ISL
and only to satisfy himself. Mr..
Witty said that he did not
come prepared to take charge of the
remains-in fact, he was compelled
to borrow finances with which to get
here. The man told a plausible
story and further explained that he
had left a little daughter at the
point Of death back in Ohio and said
he had to return immediately.
Mr.. Witty said his brother had
no religious belief during life, so
services were dispensed with and Un-
dertaker Wheelan laid the remains
to rest in Chippiannock cemetery

Halves does not seem disposed to in
