BASEBALL NOTES.
The Boston Herald says that Portland 8
great record of wins is partly due to the
fact that all its games have been played
at nome. This is no doubt true to Ger.
tain extent, but it Is also true that while
Portland has played more games at home
than any other club, it has also lost less
at home than any other club.
One of the features of Saturdays game

A Word About Nazareth Waists.

Mothers, would you have your
boys or girls wear seamless
knitted waist, a waist that is
elastic enough not TO tear under
tension but still firm enough to
withstand all the hard knocks
boys and girls give their under
garments? Then you are invited
to carefully inspect the Naz-
areth Waists at our Corset
department. Sensible in that
they give the best wear and
greatest comfort. Economical
because Inexpensive and dura-
Bile, and healthful because they
don't bind or restrict the grow
ing child. Same sizes for either
boy or girl and the prices are
2lo each. ANY size in any one
quality is tile same price. :.

Deafness Cannot Be Cured

by local applications as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear.
There is only one way to cure deaf
ness, and that is by constitutional
remedies. Deafness is caused by an
infiamed condition of the mucous lin
ing of the EustachIan Tube. When
this tube gets !Intiamed you have a
rumbling sound or imperfect hearing
and when it is entirely closed deaf
ness is the result, and unless the in
Illumination can be taken out and this
tube restored to its normal condition
hearing will be destroyed forever.
nine cases out OF ten are caused by
catarrh, which is nothing but IN in
tiamed condition of the mucous sur
faces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars
for any case Of Deafness Caused by
catarrh) that cannot be cured by

through here today en- route to Wash

Description OF the Suspected Robbers
There are no new developments in
the Club saloon robbery. The par.
ties who committed the bold CRIME
are probably ont of the State having
good time on their ill.gotteu gains
1t is doubtful whether they will ever
be caught and made to answer for
their crimes. 1t only adds another to
the long list Of crimes committed in
Elko county in the last six years
where the perpetrators have gone up-
punished.
The men who are suspected Of the
robbery are Joe Stewart, John Hun
ter and Frank Bozeman. These men
came here from Idaho last Decem Der
and made there headquarters at the
4 liza saloon. kept by Frank Wig
gina. They were gentlemanly, had
but little to say and made friends
easy. They claimed to be horse
breakers and vaqueros and Away 8
had plenty Of money. They played
cards to pass away the time and
seemed to be very mild hammered
men. They rested room in John
Craig's house shortly after their arrival
and kept bachelors hall until Monday
night when they left town without
bidding their lnm y friends good bye.
Following is description OF each
OF the men:
Joe Stewart,age about 25 or %, sandy
complexion, very light mu5tache,
sandy nearly red hair thin on top. big
blue eyes, 81 or 6 feet tall, weig hit
about It's pounds.
John Hunter. age about 30, very
dark complexi on, black eyes, s feet s
or inches tall, weight about 100
pounds.
Frank Bozeman, age about 80.
dark complexion black eyes, black
hair. black mustache. 5 feet 6 or
inches tall, very straight, weight about
ITO.
Stewart is the most talkatlye Of
tho men. The others have but little
TO say.

The q rson Mint Steal.

A good many interesting disclos-
ures regarding the looting of the Car
son mint are coming to light. To
the story published last week in the
Virginia Chronicle and reproduced
ID the IHoEPENDENT, the Carson APP
peal adds the following disclosures
that have been maize since the con-
viction Of Heney and Jones:
There is in the possession Of a man
IN Carson the notes which passed be-
tween the members Of the first Jones
jury and the sack bearer for Jones
and Heney, These men nov insist
that the sack bearer whose business
1t was to handle the last jury in the
case did not tend to business, but
SINK the money. 1t would have re-
qulred 80 much money to handle a
jury in the face of the evidence on
the last trial that the sack man prob
ably concluded not 10 waste it and SO
sunk it in his own pockets.
Had these two men made a clean
breast OF the whole thing and not
employed lawyers and Jury bribe rs
they would have had a shorter sen-
tence and had plenty of money left.
After going to the prison one Of the
men-some say Jones and some say
Heney-made confession i,nplicat-
ing others i'll the steal who we're
never on trial; but no arrests we're
made because they could not be
tried successfully on the uncorrobor-
atcd Testimony of convicts.
Evidence has also cropped up
which tends to show that Pierce, who
ID supposed tc have committed suicide
in San Francisco, was really killed
because he was supposed to know
something more Of the affair than was
safe to the others.
For some years past gang Of men
have been making silver into dollars
and their plant is supposed to be in
South America. The money is full
weight in silver, but the money Is not
made i'll any mint. The dies, how
ever came from the Carson mint.
The U. S. Government detectives
are still on the trail of the mint case
The government never quits ON a
case like that until 1t Is satisfied it
has got to the very bottom Of it.
