There is little in the legislative bill

A Lonely Death.

William Lees, an old time resident
OF this vicinity, was found dead in his
cabin on the Occidental road about a
mile from the old Prospect mine this
morning. The discovery was made by
Messrs. Thomas and Harper, who are
mining in that vicinity. When last
seen alive on Saturday he was seem
'ingly in good health. When found this
morning he was in sitting posture
and it is believed that death came sud
denly. Mr.. Lees sustained a 4o-foot
fall while at work in Silver City mine
last week but it is not believed that
this had anything to do with his death
When found he was reduced to mere
skeleton but this was not through lack
of food as there was plenty of food ir
the cabin. Mr.. Lees was man some
where in the sixties. and had resided ii
this section for many years. About 2:
years ago he was superintendent of the
Prospect mine and was in afluent cir
cumstances. He has no relatives liv
ing in this acknowledgements.

A Lack of Courtesy

Upon the death of the wife of Presi-
dent Kruger, Mr.. Mckinley failed to
officially express the sympathy which
is the usual custom in events of that
kind. The President of this Republic
loses no time in expressing sympathy
with kings and emperors upon such oc-
casions, and yet he had not word OF
consolation to offer the Executive head
of stricken people who are struggling
to maintain a Republic as did our fore
fathers, and with the same nation, the
death of the late ruler of which was
followed by the most effusive messages
of coincidence, from the imperialistic
occupant OF the White House at Wash

The Duck Hunters.

Sunday the season for shooting
ducks opened in Nevada, and if there
was an idle gun left in Carson it was
because it was lost. The emigration
for the hunting fields started early
Saturday and is still moving.
The battle opened at 2 a. m. at Was
hoe Lake, some Club members op-
ening the ball by shooting mud hen
by moonlight. The fire became gen.
eral at daylight and it would put any
Spanish -American battle to shame for
|noise-for execution it also resembles
some famous battles, as it is mostly
hearsay.
After the smoke drifted away the
boys met and exchanged stories. some
|of them hard luck ones, but all big
enough. According to the stories, not
the game bags, everyone killed from
ten to one hundred birds and lost as
many They all lost the biggest birds
that were dropped.

slaughter was spread. Yesterday they

U. S. Court.

/ Yesterday the U. S. District court
was pretty busy, three cases being de
cided by Judge Hawley. The case OF
Bell VS.. Wedekind, which was argued
last week, was practically decided in
favor Of Bell. Bell had secured a tenn
porary injunction against Wedekind,
and defendant brought it before Judge
Hawley for a dismissal The motion
was denied The Judge stated that the
reason of the denial for dissolution
was that it was not brought about in
proper form. He did not render any
decision in any OF the other points at
law, as he considered that the case iii
i its present form was not in his juris-
diction.
The defendants have asked that an
order be made granting the right to
survey the disputed property, SO as to
decide the dip of the ledge and thus
prove that the apex Of the ledge is
on the Wedekind ground
The case OF the Indian School VS.
Pedroli, was also decided. or. as is
commonly known, was thrown out OF
court. The case is over water right
on Clear Creek, both ranches having
rights on the creek Mr. Pedrolli was
originally defeated in the Distric
Court and afterwards held in contemp
for some irregularity in use of water
The Indian School people then com
menced action in the U. S. Court or
the grounds that owing to irregular
ties etc, the time for rendering judg
ment would take too long, and that be
ing a Government institution. the y
5. Court should decide in the case
Judge Hawley decided that it wa:
not strictly governmental case anl
that the plaintiff by beginning actio,
in the State court placed themselves
under the jurisdiction OF the Stat,
courts. and the case was dismissed
without prejudice.
The demurrer in the case of the DC
cldental Mining company against tn,
Comstock Tunnel Company was mex
decided. the Judge everything the dc
murrer, The suit is against the Sutr'
Tunnel company for breach OF con
tract asking $Izz,,02.25 for breach
OF contract
1t is understood that the tunnel com
pany refused to allow the plaintiff min
ing companies certain privileges-s,lc
as the stringing OF electric wires etc
Plaintiff takes the position that tn
