Operations at Ely.

The last issue of the White Pine
News reports the following on the
operation of the Chairman Mining
Company there;
Some of the freight teams, which
have been engaged to haul freight
from Eureka to Robinson, struck
last Sunday and refused to load un
less an increase in price for hauling
was guaranteed.
The Chairman Co. and the Eureka
& Palisude r.. r. Co., had hereto
fore entered into an agreement by
the terms of which the Railroad Co.. g,
was to ley the freight down at the
mine in Robinson, for $24 per ton
of this amount the Railroad com
pany was to get 50, and the Fighters
from Eureka to Robinson were to get
SIS per ton. This the frieghters
claim is insufficient, compared with
the amount the Railroad Co., is get
ting, and refuse to haul unless there
is an increase over the present rate.
There are now over 300 tons OF
freight at Eureka belonging to the
Chairman Mining Co, and operations
at the mine are considerably hamper
e d and delayed 1t looks like a case o
"squeeze" on the part of the freight
ers, but whether they will succeed il
raising the price of hauling, over th'
present rate remains to be seen.
The company have let a contrac
for the erection of "a bunkhouse 20 by
60. The walls of the building arr
to be made of brick and adobes; tn
inside being laid with the sun-drie'
and the outside of the walls wit
the burnt brick

The body of Nora Ahern, who for
the past 25 years has resided at Eb-
erhardt, a deserted mining camp
near Hamilton, was found in the
foot hills about a mile and one-half
from her cabin on the 31st., ult., in
a bruised and mangled condition.
Nora had last been seen alive on
the morning of the Goth, when to-
gether with Frenchmau, who for
the past 20 years has been her con-
stant companion, started out to find
some cattle, which had been report
ed dead in the hills not far from
Eberhardt. After accompanying hen
some distance from the house, the
Frenchman returned leaving Nora
who was over sixty years of age, tc
complete the search alone, This
was the last seen of Nora until the
finding of her remains, disigured
and in a state Of decomposition {
days afterwards.
Private advices received here sa,
that the Coroners' Jury viewed tn
body and found that she was mur
dered beyond a doubt. But TIN
manner in which she met her dealt
is, up to the time of going to press
yelled in darkness.-White Pin

The proposition to hold Il county
Teachers Institute at the Teachers
examination next month is good
one. DeLamar has been selected Tor
the place and though the people Of
that town have been called upon
for numerous subscriptions for public
afTairs this is one which should re
ceiye a good support The expenses
viii be very light and the town
possesses in itself almost, talent
enough to present 4 programme at
once entertaining and instructive
besides deriving lasting benefit per-
haps to its own inssiteetion of learn
ing. One such Institute should be
held in the county every year since
we are too far off to attend those
given under State superintendent.
Phoebe wants the next one.

At about / o'c!ock u m. two

which two little boys were playing
The team was stopped and while be-

jumped from the wagon and spol c
to the boys Ascertaining which was

succeeded in getting ahead of IT,
kidnappers near the Newark mill an1
laid in wait for them at the old stone
cabin near the road known as the
'Dewdrop Inn" Several shots were

The deputies named are still pursu

Mining Experts Arrested and Held For
Burglary ofa Mine

80 So ~ 8 tffitfe
Mining experts Hague and Alex
tnder Womble were arrested at Haw-
thorue, Esmeralda County, last Week
charged with housebrea5ing in for
chilly entering the Silver Peak mines.
They were held to answer to the
next grand jury, released on bonds
and their trial fixed for July 7th
The San Francisco papers say
that behind it all is an interesting
story ana that long ago the mines
came into the possession of John L.
Blair, a New York millionaire, who
shut them down -Four years ago
L. J Hanchette, father of Mrs.
George Crocker, got at Blair and Sc
cured from him a bond on the mine,
with permission to work and pay him
$3.50, 000 at the end Of certain time.
He pledged himself to spend $780,
900 in erecting mill and making i'm
provements, and with L. E. Han
chette, his son, has since been de-
veloping and working the property.
Blair is SO years old and had to
retire from business because of men
tai incapacity. The Henchettes say
that when they offered Blair's family
the $3.50, 900 purchase they refused,
and a suit was began over the mat
ter month or two ago Now the Han
chettes say Hague and Womble went
to the mine with force of men, over
| powered the watchman, broke into
tunnels and mine-house, lived there
a week, and secured a report on the
mine which the Henchetts never
would permitted them to have. This
report is supposed to have been
for certain millionaire desirous of
securing control of the property
The elder Henchette heard of the
raid, hastened to Hawthorne, and
when the experts returned there had
them arrested. There will be a big
legal fight over the affair, eminent
counsel having been engaged.

The funeral OF Mrs Henry Rives
wife Of Judge Rives, occurred yester-
day afternoon from St. Pauls Episco-
pal chapel
The floral offerings from Mrs Rive
many friends were unusually num-
erous and beautiful. Noteworthy
among them, as a token of the re-
CARDS which Mrs. Riyes inspired in
those with whom she came in con-
tact. was lovely wreath Of white
roses and carnations, sent by Wing
Dun, Chin Chan and Ong Hoi, three
members of the Chinese colony
Mrs. Rives met these three men in
Nevada, and during her illness they
have been contant callers at her resi-
dence. Other floral pieces were a
broken u leel in pink carnations, a
heart in scarlet roses and a carna-
tons from Mrs Oscar Il. Smith, and
a harp in sweet peas, from H. A.
Cohen. Besides these there were
many lovely bouquets of roses, sweet
peas, heliotrope and several other
beautiful floral pieces
At st. Paurs chapal the impressive
burial service of the Episcopal church
was conducted over the remains by
the Rev. L. b. Ridgely, and thence
a long cortege proceeded to the City
cemetery Here the remains of the
departed lady were sorrowfully and
tenderly consigned to their last rest
ing place'-Tribune

The participants in DeLamars
first killing were discharged on the
ground of self defense; that it was
not necessary to wait and be fired at
first. This is peculiarly western law.
In settled communities the course
would have been for the threatened
person to have the other arrested
and placed under bonds to keep
the peace, failing to give which he
would have to lie in Jail. In theory,
the taking of human life is iustifiable
only after every ordinary means OF
avoidance, legal and otherwise, has
been tried and failed.

The literature of auctioneering is full

Carlow, England, turns up with line
of humor which is all the more effective
because it is SO unconscious. An ad-

stated that "the old gaol" would hp of.

zeal concerning a "female prison Of 30

fine cut granite gate entrance" and AL

with granite or flags In fact, "all
