JUDGE MACK INDICATED.

A few weeks ago the Carson News
published a lengthy article severely
criticising Judge @. E Mack for his
action In the Crowley case. The In
DEPENDENT published the gist OF the
News article and commented thereon,
Now comes the News and publishes
the following retraction completely
generating Judge Mack. AS the
INDEPENDENT published the News
Criticisms, it cheerfully publishes it's
retraction Of the same as an act of
justice to the injured party:
Carson City, New, Nov. 2, 1899.
In the News, a newspaper owned,
printed and published by the under
signed, in Carson City, Nevada, of
date October 4, 1899, we published an
article concerning G. E. Mack, Judge
OF the First Judicial District Court
OF the State Of Nevada, headed,
Judge Mack Shown up in an Unsav-
DRY Light" i'll which article it was
asserted that Judge Mack had acted
LII a manner unbecoming a man
holding judicial position, or as
good citizen, in several things and
ways particularly pointed out in that
article.
The article was written by one of
the undersigned on information be-
heved to be reliable; but on personal
investigation we have found 1t to be
untrue and we'll calculated to do
Judge Mack great injustice among
his friends neighbors and acquaint.
ances, and to be we'll calculated to
wound his personal feelings.
Therefore, in justice to him whom
we have done great injury by reas-
on of the writing and publishing of
said article. as above named, and to
repair the injury 30 far rs we can, we
hereby retract the whole of said art1-
Gle, it coming from the same inform
ant, realizing it to be honorable to
repair any wrong to one whenever
convinced of the fact and it is for
that purpose that we publish this adj
mission.

A Mysterious Find.

Travellers on the e. & P. railroad
will miss familiar land mark from
the west side of the track IN Pine
valley, about half mile south of
Parry's home place. 1t was large
two-story fame building known as
the Willard place, situated out in the
middle Of the field, a1out four hun
dred yards from the railroad track,
where it has stood in its lonliness,
unoccupied for the last twenty years.
The house is owned by F.. A. Parry
who had it moved up to his home
place about two weeks ago, and after
it was moved. and during cleaning
up of the site upon which it had
stood, the upper part Of human
skuu was found with a bullet hole in
the back oEit. A further search was
made, but no other bones were found.
No one seems to remember any mys-
terious Disappearance in that neigh
borhood, and the mystery will prob.
ably never be solved.--Eureka Senti-

Census Word Family.

There are some queer features
about the census use of the word
family" 1t means practically those
who eat at the same table. The
Memorial Hall Dining association at
Cambridge is family, 30 is the Dan
vers lunatic asylum. A hotel is a
family. A stray who keeps bachelor
hall is family. The necessity for
the use Of the term came with the
question of enumerating domestic
servants, 1t was found absolutely
impossible to attach them to their
own families, scattered us they are.
They had to go with the family they
are living with. This led to a contin-
uation Of the principle with the result
mentioned. AS it works out the CEN
GUS family differs from the actual
family in size only by small fraction
OF one person.

THE SUPERB ELECTRICAL DISPLAY
From July to November tho city Of

magnificent Exhibition.

Since the institution OF the frst
primitive fair for the exchange OF
wares among ancient tradesmen. Il
has been grander and more interesting
than It's immediate predecessors. The
Greater America Exposition will be no
exception to this rule. In the variety
and novelty of its educational and
amusement features II will without
question surpass the exposition OF 1925.
Its exhibits are not only more numer-
Gus. but more novel and instructive
than were those Of year ago. The
amusement concessions. also more nu-
merous. present many novelties and
all are grander In design and propor-
tions than those OF any former exposi-
ton. The illuminations and pyrotech-
nicnl displays will be upon scale OF
magnineence heretofore not attempted.
and a line OF special features and days
Is contemplated OF almost sensational
interest.
One OF the crowning features of
the exposition Is the electrical illumi-

the novel features Of the exposition.
Enough to say that the experience
OF last year has bcen utilized to the
full, that the dark places have been
touched as with the wand Of wiz-
ard. and that Electrical superintcnd-
cnt Rustin has prepared n fairy scene
brilliant and gorgeous beyond compar-
ison.
In the mater OF exhibits the First
Greater America Colonial Exposition
has been most fortunate. When tho
exposition was first talked OF some
doubt was Expressed as 10 tho possibii-
ity of securing a sufficient number OF
attractive exhibits to MI the immense
buildings. but that doubt has been OBJ
scured by the necessity OF economizing
space IN order that all who applied
might be accommodated. The United
States government building contains
special exhibit. The untire contents
OF the famous Libby Prison War Mu-
scum are displayed. II Is composed OF
the relies OF the wars OF this nation,
and is Of great historical Importance
and value. In one part of the building

the far off Philippines. A large num-
ber of the natives of these several is
lands of the seas will be at the exposi-
ton, and will doubtless make ono Of
the most interesting features OF the
great exhibition.
To those who are Interested in the
national question of Imperialism the
villages OF the native islanders will be
at once a revelation and source OF
varied information. Whether the Fill
pino is capable OF self-government or
whether II is safe to offer his country
a place in the sisterhood of states are
questions best answered after care
full study OF the man himself In the
native village he will live as In his
island home. His dress, manners, Gus
toms. ceremonies and religious OBJ
servances will not be added to nor de-
tracted from, and the daily occupation
by which he lives when at home will
be faithfully adhered to. As he is
across the sea so Will he be In his vii
Iage at the exposition. and those who
earnestly seek enlightenment on n
vexing question will as surely find II
here as in those sea-girt islands OF a
tropic cline.
Every one who visited the Worlds
Fair recalls the Streets of Cairo with
Its rich and elaborate architecture and
furnishings. For the first time since
the Columbian Exposition this amuse-
ment attraction Will be shown THE
