THIEVES AT WORK.
Unsuccessful Attempts Made to Enter Three
South Side Residences

Early yesterday morning thieves at
tempted to enter the residence Of
Squire J. R. Larue, at the corner OF
Jacob and Twenty-sixth streets. The
men made considerable noise in en-
deavoring to force open side door of
the building, arousing the members Of
the household. Aiming himself with
a shot gun, the Squire gave the men
chase, but they succeeded in getting
away. An unsuccessful attempt was
also made to burglarize the residence
OF Constable John MeDermott, on South
Jacob street, and house in the vicin-
ity at different times Thursday night.
There is no clue to the parties in the
cases.

il the people who have these ideas OF
true citizenship can come together and
work in harmony there will be no cor
ruption in politics."
What we need" continued the min
lister, SIS education that goes beyond
intellect, education that takes within
its scope the conscience of man.
What we need is a clean conviction
that will lead us to God in our duty
to the end. We also need another ele-
ment and that is honsty Of purpose.
The purpose of a man is the backbone
of man. Why do you know that
sometimes you have to furnish back
bone to the city officials? / believe it
is your duty to furnish backbone to
the city officials, to support them in the
performance of their duties. Do you
know that there are some who are
honest for policy's sake only? Let me
say that l do not believe that the man
who is honest for policy is truly an
honest man.
Often, instead of us being governed
by the golden rule" Rev. Oliphant con-
tinued, 1--WE are governed by the rule
of God. To have honesty of purpose
and clear convictions, we need righte-
business. We also need clean voting to
be a good citizen. My ideas of a good
citizen is that his work is confined to
every day in the year"
In speaking of unclean voting as be-
ing injurious to good government, the
reverend gentleman said: "The trouble
is we let ourselves be bossed too much
by the political bosses. We are ruled
too much by the political bosses, and
the good citizens are paying dearly for
their indifference upon these questions.
good citizen also means a good, wise
and righteous system of government
for municipal affairs"
He then dwelled briefly upon the
question of tenement houses in connec-
ton with the present movement, and
concluded with the words: "All l have
to say is go on, go on, and God will
give you clean city government"
DR.. ]. l.. Sooy, the chairman of the
executive committee of the Ministerial
Association, then addressed the congre-
CATION, and in commenting upon the
various union meetings held in the
interest of good citizenship during the
past two weeks, said that the eXpecta-
lions of the members of the Ministerial
Association have been realized as far as
the expressions from the citizens gen
orally are concerned Now we stand
organized into union he continued,
ga union we have designated, "A fedora
ton of the churches and we intend to
stick to the lines we have just pur-
sued. The work of the past two weeks
have been marked along the lines of
Christian citizenship, and now we are
going to wait a while to give the city
officials an opportunity to do their
duty. We are looking to them to en-
force the laws. We propose to give
them full opportunity to do so, and
we think 1t an opportune time for them
to act. We expect them to do it, and
if they do not we will act according
ly."
In conclusion, Rev. DR.. Sooy thanked
all present for their close attention and
stated that he would announce special
meetings under the auspices of the
Ministerial Association later on.

A FlendiSh Crime.

4he murder OF Mrs. William Del
Crosse, at Bridges station on the Ne
vada Centred railroad, 1917 miles
north OF Austin, Lander county, last
Wednesday is one OF the most fiend-
lsh and brutal murders ever commit
ted in the State. The Revellie gives
the following particulars of the
crime:
The father and husband of the
murdered people says that an Indian
stopped at the station Tuesday night.
He had supper and breakfast and
feed for horse. The Indian acted
very strange and distant, and the man
employed with him ON the section
jim Ganser. was very much afraid of
the Indian. The Indian took his de-
parture shortly after breakfast and
shortly after he left, Mr.. Crosse bid
farewell to his family and he and
Ganser took a handcar and went
down the road to work. They return
ed In the evening and not being met
at the door by Mrs. Del Crosse. as
had always been the case ON former
occasions. the husband became un-
easy and began a search of the house.
He found the eldest child, IA months
old, strangled to death in it's crib, the
two months old baby was in bed cry
ing. He began search of the prem.
lses and found his wife in the chick
en- house dead. A rope was around
her neck and the body hung to q post
the lower part Of the body on the
floor and both feet we:e tied together
with piece Of wire. He cut the rope
and let the body to the floor and at
the request of Ganser let the body
lay, where 1t was found the next
morning by Justice Hager of Battle
Mountain.
Parties who saw the remains of the
murdered woman are of the opinion
that she was killed with ar axe or
some other blunt instrument as the
whole left side of her head was caved
in and the nose fiattened out on the
face.
The crime is one of the worst ever
perpetrated in the county. and the
supposition is that it WIS done for the
pur pose Of robbery, as the trunks had
all been overhauled and the trunk
containing Mr.. Del Grosso's private
papers was packed away.
AS soon as the news of the crime
reached the officers, a posse was or
ganized and started in pursuit. The
murderer's home is said to be in this
county, and he is headed this way. A
reward Of 5000 is offered for the cap
ture Of the following described per-
son: Supposed to be an Indian or
Mexican, short and heavy set. Age
about Twenty-Five. Wore stiff grey
hat, white striped silk shirt, wide
sleeve holders on arms, with large
buckle blue stone setting. Overalls
over black pants, black vest, new kid
shoes, printed toes, riding small dark
brown horse, black legs and tail, new
saddle, Indian saddle blanket. Horse
branded 10 on left hip.
Since the above was put in type,
the Reno Gazette has come to hand
with special from Austin stating
that Sheriff Watt had captured the
murderer at Grass valley, Lander
county, and taken him to the A Justin
Jail. The murderer is an Indian
about 81 years Of age. He tells con-
tiicting storiee, but the officers are
positive they have the right man.
