Wells Herald: Last Sunday morning
a man by the name of Bergeson was
found dead a few miles east of Carlin.
and Coroner Morgan was summoned,
who took charge of the remains and
held an inquest. The man had been in
Carlin but a few days and was so i'll
that he was advised to go to Elko and
enter the county hospital. He pur-
chased a ticket to Elko, but started up
the track on foot and died on the way.
The name of the deceased was 3. Ber-
geson. a native Of Norway, aged about
IS years. and his death was due TO nat
ural causes
The Wells Herald describes an ex-
citing exhibition Of horsemanship given
by a well known cowboy. His horse
reared and plunged and succeeded in
throwing him from the saddle. His left
foot caught in the stirrup and for
few moments the greatest excitement
prevailed. The horse noticed the po-
sition of his master and jumped a lit
tie to one side. This movement proba-
bly, saved the cowboys life. The sud-
den lurch caused the boot to come of
and saved the rider from being dragged
by the Infatuated animal which ran
across the railroad track and through
the northern part Of town, thence to
the livery stable. where he was caught.
Regaining possession Of his steed, the
cowboy again seated himself in the
saddle and gave an exhibition of eques-
TRAN feats which were extremely dar-
ing and dangerous enough to cause the
hair of a tendeFfcot to turn gray, but
decidedly characteristic OF the cowboy
Of the wild and woolly west. Tying his
horse to a post he entered a saloon
TO quench his thirst, and while thus
engaged another cowboy vaulted into
the saddle and rode the horse into the
saloon mid the cheers of the crowd.

AN UNWILLING scoRcHER.
William Shultz's Motorcycle Ran
Away With Him.

New York Journal: When William
Shultz of Brooklyn goes out riding
again he will have mis- naphtha motor
ATTACHMENT removed.
SllulsZ knows very we'll the art of
riding made easy and he has often
laughed at his friends who never knew
how TO rig motor to their bicycles
Why, l just used 10 fly away from
them on the road" he said.
There is a nice incline at Ninetieth
street and Fifth avenue, and from there
the road is down grade. Shultz reached
the top of this hill and tried TO turn off
the motor. because the wheel would so
OF itself down hill He turned the
crank and il suddenly snapped back.
The wheel seemed to take wings. and
SKINNED over the asphalt pavement,
to the delight Of ALI who watched it and
noFed the 10 k of fright on the riders
face.
But Shultz kept up ais nerve and
tugged more and more on the crank of
the motor. Then it snapped off, and the
bicycle was beyond his control. He
shouted for help and held grimly to the
handle bars.
All the bicycle riders on the avenue
started TO chase him, noS knowing his
predicanent. Policeman Casey joined in
the chase and muttered TO himself:
That's the worst scorcher I've seen
yet
The policeman called to Shultz TO
stop, but the rider seemed TO make no
attempt to do so. He held fast 10 his
handle bar and did not even turn his
head. This angered the policeman, and
he put on all the speed at his command.
Slowly he gained on the 'scorcher, and
it was a race worthy the fieetest. The
policeman spurted past ShuItz at One
Hundred and Tenth street, just where
the cobble stone and asphalt meet the
mark making the finishing tape line.
When the policeman got~abreast of the
''scorcher" he ordered him 10 dismount.
Il can't Catch the Wheel" Shultz
shouted Then despairingly he raised
his hands, and the policeman saw the
dangling crank handle of the motor.
The policeman caught ShultZ around
the waist and lifted him boldly off the
wheel The runaway motor cycle was
then captured.

STORIES ABOUT BARNATO.
Showed Cecil Rhodes a Bucketful of
Diamonds.

1T was the evening of a day nearly
ten years ago when three men who held
the chief interest in the diamond mines
at Kimberley sat down together to ar
range the terms of the projected ANAL
gamation. The three were Cecil Rhodes,
Alfred Belt and B. l. Barnata of the
Kimberley mine. Each one had con-
cession he required from the other1,
but the requirements of the last two
are of no public interest. The conces-
sion Mr.. Rhodes required was entirely
different. 1t was this: Il want the
power to go TO the north to carry out
the expansion there, and L think the
company might assist me in the work.
I believe everything they give will be
returned, but even if it were lost it is
a very fair case for the doctrine Of
ransom In other words, Mr.. Rhodes
insisted on getting the power to use
the profits of the De Beers mine for
the ACQUISITION of the unoccupied re-
gions Of the north Mr.. Belt said lit
tie. but supported Mr.. Rhodes. but the
notion of using the diamond mines to
create an empire did not recommend
itself as good business to Mr.. Barnato
even when it was backed by Mr.
Rhodes Mr.. Barnato was amused at
this proposal and argued against it for
a long time. But Mr.. Rhodes was de-
ter1nined to have his way. and insisted
ON their agreeing to his conditions, as
he had agreed to theirs. He sat there
with them all night and till o'clock
in the morning. AT last the other two
gave way, Mr. Barnato observing:
Some people have a fancy for this
thing. some for that thing, but you
have a fancy for making an empire.
Well suppose we must give it you
Another story which is current also
in London is that some years ago, when
the company had 100000 carats of dia-
mends to SELL Mr.. Barnato made Mr.
Rhodes an offer for the lot in one par
eel. Mr.. Rhodes, having considered the
offer, replied: Yes, you shall have
them for that on one condition" And
what's the condition?'' THAT you let
me see a sight no human eyes ever saw
yet" What's that2" inquired the puz-

A Wonderful Drummer.

Probably the most remarkable drum
mer who ever lived was Jean Henri,
the tambour major of the Emperor Ma
poleon. One of his feats was TO play
on fifteen differently toned drums at
the same time in so soft and harmo-
NOUS a manner that instead of the
deafening uproar that might have been
expected the effect was that of novel
and complete instrument. In playing
he passed from one drum TO another
with such wonderful quickness that the
eyes of the spectators could hardly

UNLAWFULLY IN PRISON.
Minister Charged With Wife Murder
Will Be Freed

Indianapolis, Ind, July 23.-Noah
Raney. convict at the Michigan City
state prison, has made written con-
fession. which. if proved true. will have
the effect of giving the Rev. w. E. Hin
shaw his liberty. Hinshaw was con-
victed two years ago, and sentenced to
life Imprisonment for the murder of his
wife. The tragedy was enacted at
Belleville. few miles west of this city.
and the trial of Hinshaw was one of
the most sensational in the history of
the state.
According to Baney. the real murder
ers of Mrs. Hinshaw are John Whitney
and Guy Van Tassel Indianapolis men.
Baney's statement recites the details
of the crime, as told him by Whitney
and Van Tassel, who drove from In
dianapolis to Belleville in his buggy.
Baney says the purpose of the visit
to the Hinshaw home was robbery, and
that Mrs Hinshaw was shot by Van
Tassel, who shot to brighten her back
into the yard Hinshaw's attorneys
have held back a portion of Baney's
confession for the present.
