SOME new
PLANS
WORK THAT IS BEING DONE
IN CARSON
Ed Toupin Figuring on His
Wrecked Blu ildings

A look up Carson street will con-
vince people that there is a new era
of prosperity in action in this city.
The old Thaxter corner is being re-
modelled. A new front is going in and
it alone is great improvement in the
appearance of the property. This
building was one of the first to be err
ected in this city, as is shown by the
adobe walls that constitute part of the
building. AS the corner has always
been one of the best pieces of proper
ty here, there has never been time to
remodel it.
The new improvements vii! give il

were described in the mortgage, and

and everything conceivable they
owned or claimed by the company was
specifically set forth and described in
the mortgage.

the whole business. anyhow.
Then they drove to Virginia City
and attached it over again, and in adj

the Con. Cal. Va. mine and the Ophir

SENTENCED
TO HANG
A. BuRALll TO BE ExECU-
TED JANUARY 26.
Complications May Arise to
Stay the law

Yesterday at Dayton Judge Mack
passed the death sentence on A. Blu
ralli, who killed a countryman by the /
name of Antoine Zari on the evening
of November3. The time fixed for
execution is Monday, January 26,
1903 The hanging is to take place
in this city at the State Prison and
the Warden is the hangman.
Before pronouncing the death SEN
tence Judge Mack asked Buralli if he
had anything to say and was answered
nj the negative. Before sentencing
the prisoner Judge Mack stated that
he had had fair trial and was ably
defended, but the testimony OF wit
nesses to the killing of Zari was so
overwhelmingly strong that the jury
couud not return a verdict for lesser
crime than murder in the first de-
gree. The prisoner received the death
sentence without any outward appear
muscle of his face being percepti-
BILE
Major Huffaker, counsel for the con-
demned man, made a mOtiOnfOr new
trial which was denied and he gave
notice than an appeal from the verdict
would be made to the Supreme court
which, if not considered by that tri-
buna4 prior to the date fixed for the
hanging, will necessarily involve a
stay of execution.
On top of the sentence and the pro-
posed hanging, there is likely to be
a number of complications, that the
authorities did not figure on. In the
first place the law that authorizes the
execution of criminals at the State
Prison does not go into effect until
the LIST Of January, 1903. and the sen
tenceing of man for execution at
the prison before there is such a law
in effect may cause a delay in the
proceedings.
Another fine question came up yes
terday. The Governor received a let
ter from the sheriff OF Lyon county
asking permission to place his prison
er in the State Prison, pending his
day Of doom. Ameeting Of the Board
of Directors was held in the after
noon, and no real decision was reach
ed. One lawyer contends that as the
law does not state that the prisoner
is to be confined there. that the attor
neys for the defense will take immedi
ate action for release, should the sen
fenced Non be brought to this city
Between the law on one side and thu
counter law on the other, there seem
to be great likelihood for quite a lega
battle before the murderer is brough
. to justice.

FEDERAL GRAND

White Men Refuse to Serve

CLAYTON LECTURED THEM

Guthrie, o. T. April 2s.-The federal
grand jury went on a strike at South Nc
Alester a few days. ago because ".
Weber editor Of negro paper there, had
been sworn in as juror as substitute for
white man. The jury worked one af-
terROon after vain effort TO get We
Der discharged on technical grounds, but
finally decided 70 strike. and they noti-
fed District Attorney wilkins that he
need send in no more witnesses and they
then adjourned until 1:S0.
Judge Clayton was informed Of the
matter by the foreman, and the jurors
were called into court and lectured for
nearly an hour. During the forenoon sew
eral jurors declared they would go 70
jail for contempt before they would serve
with a negro. The judge gently but
firmly declared his intention of enforc-
ing the statutory provision for such con-
tempt if necessary. This did not appar-
emily impress the jurors, but an elaborate
argument tending to show that there is
nothing social about jury service. the du-
ties being entirely legal and official
seemed more effective. The court s order
vas ebeyed and the jurors went back 70
their duties. II is not the custom here
to summons negroes on the regular list.
but a few are included among the alter
mates. An unusual call Tor substitutes
precipitated the novel situation.

CRIME is ENCOURAGED

Guthrie, o. T, April 29.-Auditor L. W.
Baxter was interrogated yesterday con-
cerning the condition Of rewards in the
territory. Section 1s chapter 4. session
laws 1901. provides and appropriates the
insufficient sum Of $3.50 for each of the
years 1901 and 1902 for printing procla-
nations ot rewards and paying the same.
Il is 10 be regretted that the legisla-
tuTe did not anticipate the addition OF
new territory and the strenuous strain
tending upon the opening of that coun-
try. and greatly increase the amount Of
The appropriation.
The commission of crimes demanding
extradition at the hands of the executive
have very materially increased; and con-
sequenuy the rewards offered for ap-
pretending criminals During the year
1901 OF the $50 appropriated. only S45L50
was expended. leaving a balance in the
treasury Of S2SS5o As appropriations are
made for the current year. this amount
remaining in the treasury cannot be
used in the year 1902 OF the $50 ap-
pTopriated FOR the current yea 1862 al
ready 800 have been expended. leaving a
cash balance Of so. It has been neces-
sary for the governor TO offer several
rewards and they are now pending pay
ment. Because Of the limited appropria-
tons, however desirous his excellency
may be TO meet those claims when pre-
scented. he is enbarra ssed and hsmpercd
by the law. which win no doubt cause
more or less uneasiness during the re
rnainder Of the year. and may result in
sad disaster.
It IS 70 be hoped that the legislature
viii make sufficient appropriation. and
so arrange it that the governor may
exercise The prerogauve and discretion
necessary TO the proper maintenance Of
law and order Should a murder be
committed. and the perpetrator leave
that territory wherein the dastardly deed
Was done by crossing the line. a sheriff
would hardly feel justified IN spending
his own money to apprehend the Grim
inal. When the appropriation is ex-
hausted, there is no money to reimburse
him. and ne would have to carry the
account to be submitted to the next
legislature. Any executive very natu-
rally feels a hesitancy about Offering
rewards in cases of crime. especially
when it piles up bills to be settled by
the next legislature Only I'm the ex-
tremest cases VIII one feel justified in
action 10 this end. The perpetrators Of
excessive crimes should he brought to
justice. The wheels Of the government
should be so adjusted as to enable the
officials to properly aid in seeing that
the criminal laws are enforced.

sheriffs that they realize the limited
