Found 4 Wife.

The following from the Tower
News concerns one of Ely's citizens:
Landlord f. e. Barnidge of the
VermiliOlIn hotel was considerably
surprised this morning by one OF his
guests asking if lie had any young
ladies at the hotel who were in the
matrimonial market. The guest ex-
planned that he was Il prosperous
saloon keeper of Ely and that he had
searched i'm vain in his home town for
someone to share his joys and sorrows.
HI also stated that Il friend had in
formed him that several beautiful
and eligible young ladies were to be
found in Tower and he requested Mr..
Barnidge TO put him next"
The genial landlord. who is ever
looking to the interests of his lady
friends as well aS that of his guests,
volunteered he information that sew
eral bewitching females were en-
ployed about the hotel and if the
Elyite SO desired he would call them
all together and selection could be
made.
Accordingly a trip was made to the
kitchen and Mr.. Wifehunter was
introduced around, but with unsatis-
factOrn results. He explained aside
to Mr. Barnidge that his eyesight was
rather poor and the bright reflections
cast from some of the ladies shapely
heads 50 blinded him that he was
unable to see. This. of course, would
never do, but Mr.. Barnidge, not to be
outdone by such Il small matter, said
there was still one lady in the laundry
and hoped she would suit. She did.
1t was clear case Of ''lOve at first
sigh j" and the sprightly miss pulled
her hands out Of the WaShtub and
placed them in those of the Ely
saloon man. They went Immediately
to the church where the knot was
tied, both happy in the thought that
they loved and were loved in return
and no one doubts it. They left for
Ely today"

We Want the Big Trees.

Tne Mississippi Valley Lumberman,
commenting on the negotiations on
the part Of Congress with Robert
Whiteside for the preservation of the
Calayeras grove of big trees in Cali
fornia, which is owned by HIM, says:
"Robert WhiteSide, man who has
put 100000 into the big Sequoia
groves of Calaveras county, CAL, is
enrouhe to Washington to make a
bargain with the federal authorities
whereby the groves may be kept from
the weodsman' S axe Our government
can well afford to pay Mr. Whteside
100000 and some cents for those
trees.a We. want our children's great
grandchildren to take trip to Gala
ver;ls county tC look at those trees
not agtheir stumps."
MTIWhi.eside is receiving all kinds
OF a ssertisiag on account Of his lucky
purchase. The Eastern press is
roasting" him numerically for
sticking for his rights. The govern
ment has had chance to secure this
land for 80 years and never took adj
vantage of the opportunity.

Held for Murder.

John Anderson who shot Ed. Bart
lett at Sparta few weeks ago while
on guard duty at Il smallpox Quaran-
tined camp, was bound over to the
grand jury on charge OF murder in
the first degree.
On the evening of Jan. 2, the team
sters at the camp were attending to
the horses, the stable being about 20
feet outside the quarantine line.
Anderson presently told the men that
it was supper time and ordered them
back to the camp. They paid no at
tention and he told them the second
time. Bartlett then turned around
and informed Anderson that he
guessed he had as much authority as
Anderson had. With that Anderson
raised his rifle and fired, hitting
Bartlett in the groin. Bartlett fell
and died within few minutes.
Anderson's story was to the effect
that Bartlett with three Others
jeered and jibed him. When he
asked them to go into camp the came
towards him in threatening manner
and he fred the fatal shot in sell
defense.

riot three miles in length on the
range in question and it will be thor
oughly explored.

magnetic quality, of high grade, and
very low in phosphorus, and will

intothe range has made rate of Il
half cent per ton per mile to the docks
at the Canadian head Of Lake Super
Tor. and to provide dock facilities.
