For District ATTORNEY.

George S. Green, the Silver Party
nominee for District Attorney, has
made an enviable record during his
official career. He has proven him
self to be not only careful legal ad-
visor, but also q successful practi-
toner. Every indictment found by
the Grand Jury during his admins
tration hus been followed by con-
yiction, and his sound advice has
prevented costly civil suits. 1t was
owing to his instrumentality that the
Bodie and Hawthorne toll road was
made free highway. Mr.. Green is
before the people for reelection aud
he asks dispassionate, careful in
quiry into all his official acts, after
which he believes the verdict will be,
Well done, thou good and faithful
Seryent."

A new camp known as Gold Field
is attracting the attention OF mining
men. The camp is in this county,

Gated and much Of it will be worked
Speaking of Gold Field, Mr.. Thorn

For State Senator.

Frank X. Thorn the regular Dem
ocratic and Silver nominee for State
Senator is now engaged in canvass
of the coanty. 1t is doubtful If the
county ever had a more able OF
honest and earnest Senator than Mr.
Thorn will prove to be.
For many years he resided in the
vicinity of Hawthorne, where he has
the esteem and admiration of those
who know him best.
Mr., Thorn is now the General Mana
ger of the Tonopah Union Company,
which is developing a group of mines
at Gold Field, a few miles from
Tonopah, but in this county. He
has labored long and hard to bring
out the mineral resources of this
county aud deserves recognition at
the hands of orr people.

Death of Senator Forbes.


The people of this vicinity will be
grieved to learn of the death of John
Forbes, which occurred at Fabiola
Hospital Oakland, last Sunday. He
had been in poor health for several
months and his friends hoped that q
change of climate would restore his
health, but they we're disappointed.
Dropsy was the cause Of his death.
John Forbes was a pioneer of Haw-
thorne, coming hero in the early
eighties as agent for the forwarding
house of D. W. Earl & Co. He rep
sented Esmeralda county two terms
as State Senator, and was largely in
terested in mines, being one of the
owners of the famous Pamlico in its
palmy days. Being man of kindly
heart and generous impulses, he was
respected and esteemed by large
circle of friends.
There are left to mourn his death
grief,stricken wife and daughter in
California, a brother here aud a sis
ter in Massachusetts. He was ma
tive of Nova Scotia, aged SO years.
The funeral took place at Berk sleY
last Tuesday.

Volcanoes Letter.
SILVER PEAK. Oct. i

|
| have discovered the fact that
there are more educated burros in
Silver Peak aud Tonopah than there
are dogs, and dogs are SO numerous
that it is with difficulty one can walk
the streets without falling over fifty
or sixty of them every half mile,
making it dangerous for man in a
hurry. The burros eat anything
One old devil here eats playing cards
and picks out the aces, while the rest
of the band eat the others, with the
exception of the clubs. They are so
familiar with clubs that they shy at
that suit. Tonopah burros are so
pampered, have SO many melon
rinds, greasy ham and bacon covers,
daily papers and old wire screens
that they refuse to have anything to
do wieh gum boots and wall paper,
and what they once considered lux
urv, barbed wire. The theory OF evo-
luton is proven in their case, as far
as diet is concerned, and since the
introduction of the photograph / am
in hopes their voices will evolute to
some extent. There is one old bas-
so profundo' here who goes up on
top of hill, pumps himself full OF
wind and gives the people. of two
counties the benefit of his lung pow
err. love animals, and if the burro
is an animal l suppose it is necessary
for me to take them into confidence.
They are the ships of the desert here,
the friend of man. But when man
who works on the night shift wakes
up at s o'clock in the morning to find
one of them dragging his shirt, over
alls aud candlestick out OF the tent,
friendship ceases.
There is quite an excitement here
among the Four Hundred who
have just returned from Summer
outing among the pine timber. Miss
Gwendolene Vanderbilt Sagehen of
Saline Valley will be married to Mon
tezuma Ebenezer Astor Chuck walla
of Montezuma Terrace next week.
Miss Sagehen's family are in deep
mourning for the loss OF pinto
pony, so none but relatives will be
invited. However, as all the tribe
are first cousins to each other there
will be quite gathering, and a prob
able rise in pinenuts. The crop OF
jack rabbits is enormous this year, so
there will be no famine | wonder
that some capitalist doesn't get up
syndicate to corner both crops and
precipitate an Indian war or strike
la Pennsylvania. VOLCANO.

nounce that he has withdrawn from

almost impossible for him to make a
canvass of the county.

BASKET SOCIAL A SUCCESS
Athletic Association Realized Quite
Well in Financial Way at
the Social.

1t has been long time since a
basket social has been held in this
city to give the young men a chance
to loosen up on their cash when their
solid girls basket was up for mark.
The loyalty with which they stood BY
their colors and the desire for the
basket ought to have made the heart
OF the young lady beat in rapturous
tumult when cash speaks such
volumes of alteration.
Saturday evening the University
A thletic Association arranged for
one of these basket socials at the
Mitchell Club rooms under the sup
position that it would be prolific
way in which to enrich it's depleted
treasury, and from the way the.bid-
ding was carried on and the number
of baskets that were disposed of they
doubtless realized a goodly sum of
money.
Previous to the auction of the bas-
kets a comedy was given by the
young comedians over the University,
which was ENTITLED "Scenes From
Rural School," and a regular old
fashioned school was displayed before
the large crowd. The boys were
dressed in all kinds Of queer costumes
and some yielded to the necessity
to dress in female costume. The
schoolmaster was an ideal of the early
day in make up. Glasses recited in
the various branches, the usual Fri
day afternoon recitations were given,
and the indulgence of a recess where
games we're played. The usual pranks
on the schoolmaster and the scholars
we're carried out, and the whole Gre
ated a great deal Of amusement for
the crowd that was in attendance.
Later came the basket selling.
The young ladies were generous in
providing a goodly number of at
tractive baskets for which the young
gentlemen had full opportunity to go
to the limit. If one of the fellows
displayed any particular desire to Sc
cure certain basket he usually had
to pay good round price for it.
Several of the boys bought a gold
brick when they opened their basket
and found it to contain anything but
what a young lady would put to-
gether for a nice luncheon. w. A..
Barber and I. W. Seaman off1iciated
as the auctioneers and they used
every known art to beguile the youth
into parting with his ready cash.
Everybody enjoyed themselves at
the social and the athletic associa-
tion feels pretty we'll satisfied over
the amount of money taken in, which
was about $50.

AN INFORMAL AFTERNOON
Mrs. W. A. Barber Entertained Sat-
urday Afternoon in a Hospit-
able Manner.

Saturday afternoon Mrs. W. A.
Barber informally entertained a
goodly number of her lady friends
at her home on east First street.
The invitations requested the ladies'
to bring needle and thimble.
For the entertainment of her
guests Mrs. Barber had provided a
series of amusing features that were
we'll carried out, and there was not
an uninteresting moment in the af-
ternoon. A guessing contest was in
augurated in which questions were
provided on sheet of paper that
had reference to a lady's holiday
costume, and for which a prize was
awarded to the one who was SUCCESS
ful in answering all the questions
correctly. Five ladies were at the
top, and in cutting for the prize, Miss
Hinsey, of Pekin, was the successful
one. A grab-bag was passed around
the room, and this is where the
needle and thimble were brought in
to use. The bag contained large
number OF small pieces of cloth.
Each lady took out share and they
were seWed into a nine square. It
was determined by vote as to who
made the most beautiful combination
for colors, and to that person was given
the rest Of the squares. Miss Ger
trude Becker was the recipient of
this distinction.
The decorations Of the rooms and
the tables were made Of holly and
there was great profusion of this
holiday token. The ladies found
their places at the table by means
Of souvenir cards at each place.
The cards contained water color
sketch of little sunbonnet maidens,
and were very nicely done. Light
refreshments were served. The
affair was very pleasant one in
deed.
