filled with the earnest. sympathetic tones
which had already impressed me most
favorably."
At Washington several stories OF pathos
have been brought to light by sermons
through the telephone.
One case was that OF woman near
deaths door. 1t was Sunday morning
and as the sounds of the Ginning church
bells reached her ears, she whispered the
desire that she once more wished to hear
her pastor preach the word OF God be-
fore she died.
The wishes of the dying woman being
known, her friends set about to fulfill
them.
A telephone was installed In the sick
chamber. On Sunday morning a watch
case receiver was placed to the dying
woman's ear. Suddenly as the dying
woman lay breathing family. the girl at
central switched on the church. and the
invalid, who had not been to church for
years. was aroused by hearing the sweet
musical strains or Jesus, Lover OF MY
Soul" With tears streaming down her
cheeks she thanked God in her happiness.
Since that time the friends OF the unfor-
tunate woman whose life was despaired
of declare that she will now recover.
Another case and more pathetic. was
that of a man I'm the last stages OF con-
sumption. and whose death was momen-
tarily expected.
A watch-case receiver was placed In his
hand and he was told to hold 1t to his
ear. He did not understand the actions

Robber Killed Near CurIln.

The Elko Independent reports the kill
Ing by Gus Linstrom of a robber who
attempted to hold him up in his saloon
near Carlin Friday night. From what
can be learned of the affair, the robber
entered the saloon with a handkerchief
over his face and requested Mr.. Linstrom
to hand over what money he had. Instead
of doing as requested Mr. Linstrom grab
bed an automatic revolver lying handy
and opened fire on the fellow, killing him
instantly. Nine bullets from the revolver
took effect.
Mr.. Linstrom, who is a Swede, has had
more than his share of excitement In
that section the past few months. 1t will
be remembered that his place was blown
up with dynamite several months ago
and he then narrowly escaped being kill
ed. His place of business is located at
the mouth OF new tunnel and is the
first saloon east of Carlin on the line of
the road.

Early Sunday morning a fire clean
ed out the farm known as the Ambro-

When Mr. Ambrosetti went to feed
in the early morning, he took light

a beam and a pigeon that was start
led by the Pickering light flew into it
and threw the lighted wick into the
nay. In an instant the hay was "a

by the frightened man, the fire grew
beyond control.
AS soon as he found that it was i'm
possible to extinguish the flames, he
rushed to the house and reused the

save considerable of the household

but the rest OF the property is a to

he loss of the hay criples the IN
fortunate family beyond measure, as
the farm is conducted as a dairy ard

1t was only late this summer tha
the water that the farm depended
upon was taken away. This farm

on the fluIne water, and when thi
