The Departure of Henry Beck.

The sudden departure last Monday
Of Henry Beck of the Eagle Roller Mill
Co. from Genoa has given rise to all
sorts Of ugly rumors, most of which are
absolutely false.
Speaking to a COURIER reporter yes
terday morning, Fl. II. Beck, of Reno,
the father of the young man, said that
he did not wish to give out statement
concerning his sons trouble until he
could consult with Fred Dressler, who
was expected to arrive later in the day.
Mr.. Dressler is Henry Beck's father-in-
law and a stakeholder in the Eagle
Roller Mill Co.
Mr.. Beck said, however, that his son
was not embarrassed by financial diff
ficulties.
Previous to his departure Henry Beck
paid all his personal bills and the bills
of the company, leaving the receipts
with his wife. The money belonging
to the company is deposited in the
Jain stild IlS DOOhS Ddltlncc W d CcHu.
In spite of the rumors afloat, it can
also be stated with emphasis that his
trouble is not of domestic character
The elder Beck is our authority for
saying the affection between young
Beck and his wife is as deep and keen
now as it ever was. On Tuesday the
wife received an affectionate letter
from her husband mailed at Reno.
While the facts concerning the UNI
happy affair have not been given out,
it is known that the wife and the father
of the young man believe that he was
''driven to the WALL" as the latter ex-
pressed it.
1t appears that young Beck and his
brother-in-law and nearest neighbor,
Adolph DRESSER, had serious dis
agreement, and fearing personal en-
counter, which seemed imminent,
would be disastrous to himself, or to
his wife's brother, he left his family and
business.
All parties connected with the affair
are of the highest responsibility, and
their many friends sincerely regret
that trouble has occurred. With the
passing of little time, it is hoped that
the black storm cloud which looked sc
ominous, will pass by, and that former
peaceful and kindly social and business
relations will be resumed.

"Georgie is deadp' The message
passed from one to another until a
cloud OF sadness had settled over the
entire community, bringing under its
shadow both old and young.
Bright, amiable loving; a universal
favorite; beloved by all His pure and
gentle spirit winged its fight Heaven
ward Thursday morning, May %. Truly
might it be said, Gardnerville mourned
at his side, for she had lost a son.
Upon the street his playmates, with
sad faces, gathered in little groups and
the bystander could hear the whispered
name of a fallen companion. A flag
floating at half-nlast over the school
house told of a vacant seat, while his
schoolmates in loving memory of one
whose voice had. SO recently mingled
with theirs, but was now forever
stilled, decorated with many beautiful
flowers the vacant desk.
A far greater shadow had fallen over
the home. A place which could never
be filed had been left vacant; the fam
lily circle had been broken. One of it's
number, plucked from the hand of
time, was to shine with a brighter
radiance in the Celestial City. A bud
of unusual beauty was to unfurl and
give forth its sweetness under the
gentler influence of divine atmos-
phere.
The funeral was conducted from the
Methodist church at Genoa. The face
of angelic beauty and peaceful express
sion, the white casket, surrounded
with many beautiful flowers, made a
picture, though of sadness, yet beauti-
full to behold.
| Weep not for the loved one Our
loss is his gain.
"'Tis hard to break the tender cord,
When love has bound the heart,
IT'S hard, so hard to speak the words,
Must we forever part?
Dearest loved one we have laid thee
In the peaceful graves embrace,
But thy memory will be cherished
Till we see thy heavenly face"

Killed by an Elephant.

Last Wednesday ''Tops," female
elephant of the Forepaugh & Sells cir
Gus, killed Joseph Blunt, of Fort
Wayne, Indiana, at the show grounds
in Brooklyn.
It is customary for the elephants to
put out their trunks as the keepers
make their first round in the morning,
to 'shake hands.n
When "Tops" proffered her trunk,
Blunt carried a beer glass and showed
it at the animal.
The act offended the great beast, and
in an instant she seized the man with
her trunk, hurled him violently to the
ground, and kneeling on him, crushed
out his life.

The Relay Race.

The single men of Carson carried off
the honors in the three-corneredb bicycle
race at Carson Sunday afternoon. The
Gardnerville team came in second.
There was good crowd at the track
and the event was an exciting one from
start to finish.
The NeDs says:
During the second relay there was a
grand mix-up at the pickup post, a
great popping of tires, some high dives
and somersaults and in a flash all three
teams were piled up in bunch and
none of the three men were able to ride
in and cross the home tape.
After considering the matter the
judges declared that the race should
start with the new relay granting
Gardnerville one hundred yards the
start as the valley team was somewhat
in the lead when the accident occurred.
The single men soon led the other
two teams and finished about a mile
and quarter ahead. Between Gard
nerville and the married men it was
down to the sprint and the valley boys
won.
The best mile during the day was
credited to Frank Meder in 2:17.

WI TINGFANG RECALLED
CHINESE MINISTER TO LEAVE THIS
COUNTRY WITHOUT DELAY.
Appointed Minister of Commerce and
Chairman of Commission to NegO-
tiate Commercial Treaties.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 2.-Wu Tingfang
who has been the minister of the Chinese
empire to the United States since May
1, 1897, has been recalled to China
by an edict of the Emperor. cabled
to Minister wu to-day by the Chinese For
eign Office The edict is peremptory. Mr..
as early date as possible, even the route
by which he Is to make his voyage from
this country being indicated.
The edict informs Mr.. Wu that he has
been appointed minister of commerce, in
association with Chang Chi Tung. He
takes the position just vacated by Sheng,
whose father died recently. Under pc
culiar provision of Chinese law, when an
oficeholder loses by death his father and
mother, he vacates his office, and he is
not eligible to hold Office again for three
years, although by custom the period of
his official mourning is reduced to twenty
seven months. Mr.. Wu said to-day that
he might be able to leave this country in
about three weeks, but the precise date of
his departure has not been determined.
Mr.. WI also received a cablegram an
nouncing that he had been appointed one
of two members of a commission to nego-
tiate commercial treaties with foreign pow
ers. He will be at the head of this COM
mission, ard will have associated with him
Mr.. Lu, who, until about a year ago, was
the Chinese minister to Germany. AS Mr..
WI has been ordered to proceed directly
to Shanghai 1t Is probable the headquar-
ters of the commission will be in that city.
Mr.. Wu will be accompanied to China
by Madame WI and some members of his
personal suite, but he said to-day that
whether he would leave his young son in
this country had not been determined. He
desires tina. his son have good American
education, and he may conclude to leave
him In the United States, at least for a
time.
Minister tWu expressed great regret at
his sudden recall from this country, al
though he S not unappreciative of the hon.
or done him by his government. He said
to-day thai the American people had been
most kind 10 him and he should carry away
with him the pleasantest memories of his
sojourn in the United States. He always
had endeavored, he said, to promote COR
dial relations between this country and
China and that effort would be continued
when he returned to live among his own
people.
In official and diplomatic circles the news
of the early departure of Mr.. WI was re-
ceived with sincere regret. For years he
has been one of the most popular members
of the diplomatic corps. Mr.. Wu expects &c
leave the legation in charge of the first
secretary, Mr.. Shen Tung. No advices
have been received as to the probable time
of the arrival of the new minister.
