GET OUT YOUR SKATES:
THE ICE MAN Is HERE

This was the first morning this sea-
son that any considerable quantity of
ice has been running in the river.
There was not sufficient, however, to
seriously hamper Commodore Hender-
sons industrious craft, the good ship
Augusta.
Sylvan water, for the first time this
winter, appears in a snug coat of ice.
The Golfer dam above the street car
bridge stops the current so, from the
railroad bridge up, the water is not
deep and the ice is lovely, though
scarcely safe as vet for large skating
parties.

To be Tried

John Hancock, who is serving a
sentence at San Quentin prison, Cal,
for burglary, and who is wanted in
Lincoln county for double murder, is
to be brought back to Nevada and
stand trial for the murder. Hancock
and his wife murdered two men by the
names of Engelke and EdmundsOn,
who were travelling with them. The
woman afterwards confessed and the
bodies of the men were found where
she reported them. District Attorney
McNamee of Lincoln county spent sew
eral days in this city last week and re-
ceived papers from the Governor to
Governor Gage requesting the extra
dition of the murderer. 1t now seems
that the murderer will receive his just
deserts and a speedy trial should be
handed out to him.
