Thomas Marshall and the DEM
ocratic Congressional
Nomination.
GIVES STATEMENT AT GALEsBURG
Says Business Interests Demand III: s
Whole Atten-
ton.

Thomas Marshall announced at
GaIesburg Monday night that he
would be unable to accept the demo-
cratic congressional nomination. The
GaIesburg Republican-Register of
last evening contained the following
story:
Thomas Marshall, mayor of Keiths-
burg, was guest at Browns hotel
Monday night. Mr.. Marshall was re-
Gently nominated candidate for con-
gress by the democratic convention
of the Fourteenth district, and the
democrats were predicting his cleo
ton. 1t seems, however, that prior
to the convention, Mr.. Marshall de-
cIared that he could under no cir
cumstances accept nomination. De
spite this notice, the convention went
ahead with rush and nominated
him.
Mr. Marshall stated to a Republi-
can Register reporter that Monday
he forwarded to the congressional
committee letter in which he posi-
lively declined the nomination.
Asked the reason for this course,
Mr.. Marshall said that his business
interests would not allow him to ac-
| cept the nomination. but now imper-
atively demand his attention. He cN-
planned that his telephone system
embraces 500 miles of line; he is the
proprietor of the electric light works
of Keithsburg; he owns 30 or more
properties in Kcithsburg that de-
mand his attention. and he must look
after 900 acres of land.
Affairs Demand His Time.
"My affairs" repeated Mr.. Mar
shall. demand my time and atten-
ton
| Mr.. Marshall went um to say that
he had given the convention due no.
tice beforehand that he would not
run. He could not say who would be
selected to fill the vacancy. Mr.. Mar
shall has served two terms in the leg
| iSlature and has been mayor of
kciths burg. He * warm friend of
Col. Marsh, the republican candidate.
Mr.. Marshall now wears on his
watch chain an elegant, solid gold
medal, showing the words. Captain

A Small Boy Hero.

An act Of heroism performed here by a

TO be mentioned. Little Earl Williams
and several companions of about his age
were swimming in the river when one
of them. Aubrey Gale. got beyond his
depth. The latter could swim but very
little and after a few splashes he sank
from sight. Young Williams was stand
ing on the bank when his companions
called to him that young Gale was
drowning. The little fellow plunged in

the place and caught the drowning boy
as he was sinking the second time. Being
a fine swimmer. the little hero succeeded.
will much difficulty, of course, In bring
ing the other to the shore. Young Gale
was unconscious and was not restored for
several minutes.
The saving OF his playmate's life by
little Earl Williams is just as much an
act OF heroism as was the rescue from
drowning by Hobson, the "Kisser." OF
the silly young woman who jumped from
a boat Just to have him W. her. The
only difference is that one is a profess
sional hero and the other n hero by ma
ture-not for money and reputation.

will amount to about $45. Daily expenses

be necessary for the round trip and fgur-
ing ones time at 81 per day. the total for
one man for the round trip is s240. Then
the complaining witness would be reauir-

Sheep Killed and Horses Stolen.

Meagre particulars were received here
last evening OF the killing of a number
of sheep belonging to French and Basque
sheepmen by a party of unknown men
near Disaster Peak, in the extreme north
ern part OF the county. There were eight
men in the party. according to the story
told by the Frenchman who brought the
news here. They visited several sheep
camps in the mountains at the head of
Kings river and Cottonwood creek a few
nights ago. each man being masked and
heavily armed. They shot about sixty
head of sheep in all and drove off a num-
Der OF horses. Nothing further could be
ascertained from the Frenchman thar the
few facts here given. The superstition
is that the men who killed the sheep n
run of the horses are stockmen who are
taking hat method of trying to run the
sheepmen out of the country.
SO far as known. no charge has been
preferred and there will be no official in
~vestigation of the affair.

The Baseball Clubs Dance.

There should be a big crowd of Ian
GERS at the ball to be given by the Win
nemucca Baseball Club in Armory hall
tonight The dance Is for the purpose of
raising funds to purchase the gloves,
bats, balls and other paraphernalia need
ed by the club. There has been a great
increase in the number of Winnemucca
dancers since Prof. Ford opened his
academy here, and a large class of la
dies and gentlemen has been instruct
ed and trained thoroughly in the art of
dancing. This addition in the ranks of
REPOSITORIES devotees win doubtless be
shown in a great Increase in attendance
at tonight's ball as compared with for
mer events of the kind.
The boys of the baseball club will nave
charge of the floor and all details of the
management. They are going to make
the ball a success-a big one-and they
know how to do 1t. There will be no
excuse for any person attending and not
enjoying himself, as the effort to give
everyone a good time will be the first
consideration of the club mber
The music will be furnished by Ford's
orchestra, consisting of Prof. Ford. his
wife and their little daughter, all ex-
pert musicians. The latter is an artist
on the violin, though only nine years Of
age. The music will be the feature of the
dance.

Case Of Diphtheria.

The eleven-year-old daughter of Mrs.
w. r. Jenkins died yesterday at Battle
Mountain of what DIR. Hood is said to
have pronounced malignant diphtheria.
She was i'll only a few days, but before
the disease was known to be diphtheria
a large number of the children in town
visited her and were exposed. There is
much alarm at Battle Mountain over the
case and II Is thought the disease is sure
to spread.
The origin of the case is a mystery.
One theory advanced Is that the disease
was communicated through infected
clothing. Mrs. jenkins was in Wales two
years ago. where she had the diphtheria.
A short time before her daughter was
taken down Mrs. Jenkin unpacked some
clothing which had been in her possession
when she was i'll In Wales. 1t Is believed
by that the diphtheria germs may
have been communicated from the cloth
ing of the mother to the daughter.

STRIKE NEAR TONOPAH.
Another Rich Gold Discovery Made a Few
Miles From the Camp.

Now comes authentic Information of a
new mineral discovery which has been
entirely overlooked by the past genera
ton who inhabited the place, says the
Tonopah Bonanza. The strike is only
sixteen to eighteen miles east of Tono-
pah. The central point differs from other
late discoveries i'm the fact that there is
wood In abundance and wells and springs
on either side about one-half miles dis
tant. There are fifteen or twenty men in
the camp, and thirty or more claims To-
Gated by Tonopah and Salt Lake pros
pectors.
In the brief time since the Graham boys
made the original locations, the Hem
apah ledge has been opened to depth OF
nine feet. Samples of the ore show its
general character to be sulphides and
ruby silver carrying gold values. as as
says show: No. ! gave 442 ounces silver,
IS 27 gold; No. 2, 430 ounces silver, Sc gold;
No. 3, POS ounces silver, SIS 60 gold.
The fissure is three and one-half feet
in width, all ore; the strike east and west,
dipping to the north. According to our
informant, the formation is of the same
character of porphyry that distinguishes
the Tonopah mines. The rush has begun,
and the gold seekers nave not far to go
and a good country to get to.
