The Reno papers yesterday were full
OF story relating the troubles of one
Earl Russell, who married Mollie
Cooke In the riverside town a few days
ago. The fact was telegraphed over
the Union and kicked up lively mess
in London, where the lord and also the
lady had former marital ties. 1t now
transpires that Earl Russell and Lady
Someryille, which was the brides title
before she became Countess Russell,
have both been residing at Lake Tahoe
within the Nevada line, for some six
months past in order that a divorce
might be obtained, which was done
last Saturday before Judge Mack. The
couple departed for England the same
evening they were married and tho
probabilities are that they will have a
warm reception when they land. -Ap-

the misery existing there is indescrib-

man power can replace that of bullocks.
Such drastic measure has never be-
fore been necessary, even in the great
est scarcity of animals. 1t is also an

DEATH OF w. l.. INGRAHAM.

W. l.. Ingraham, Il well known citi-
zen of this county, died of typhoid
pneumonia here last Monday evening,
after weeks sickness. The first at
tack was not considered serious and he
steadily improved until Saturday, when
he suffered relapse and was delirlous
from that time until his death. Every
possible care and attention was given
to him by the doctor and the friends
who watched at his bedside, but it was
impossible to stop the ravages of the
disease. His relatives in the East were
notified by telegraph and sent instrue-
tions that he be buried here.
The funeral took place from Munro's
Hotel on Wednesday afternoon at >
o'clock, when large number of the
friends and acquaintance of the de-
ceased gathered to follow his remains
to their last resting place. Senator
Comins read the Episcopal service at
the grave, and the appropriate hymns,
"Jesus, Lover of My Soul and ''Be-
yond the Smiling and the Weeping
were sung by the choir.
Thus ended the life of man who was
equipped both by Nature and by edu-
cation to shine among his fellowmen.
But, like many another unfortunate, in
the crooked paths of life he went
astray, led by the same demon which
counts its victims by thousands. Yet
at his worst he injured no one but him
self, while, at his best, he displayed
those manly virtues, honor, honesty
and steadfastness in what he believed
to be the right, which won him many
a friend, who never went to him in
vain in time OF need. May he rest in
peace,
