The lecture delivered in the Opera
House last Thursday evening by Hon.
J. G. Camp, Of Georgia, was splendid
effort and one of the best lectures ever
delivered in this place. His command
Of the English language is great. His
subject was the 'sTruths and Shams
Of Lite,'' and he handled it without
gloves. His perorations were fine and
his oratory simply Of the best. We
are sorry to say that about twenty
five persons awaited themselves OF
the opportunity to hear this literary
treat. OF course it being Thanksgiv-
ing night had something to do with
the small attendance, yet at the same
time we do not hesitate to say that
IL some ssCrow' show had been billed
for that night standing room would
he at premium. Mr.. Marquardt
was heavy loser on the lecture deal
but we hope it will not discourage
him from trying it again at some
,ai lnr, time.

President ]. G. Mills, Of the Griggs
County Fair Association was in at
tendance at the shorthorn stock sale
at Fargo a few days ago. The sub

up and of course several towns were
pushed forward for the honor by the

which shows that he is doing all he
can to help along the Association.

handling this fair and can do it sue
cessfully and we'll. Let it be located

The Best Route to Tonopah.

James Brown, editor and proprietoro OF
the Butte City Times, was a passenger
from Austin last Friday, coming from
Tonopah, where he has been for the past
three weeks looking into the resources Of
that wonderful camp. Mr.. Brown gave
us a pleasant call and in a conversation
stated that the most direct route and in
fact the best and cheapest way for peo-
Pile coming from the East to reach Tobo-
pah is to buy their tickets for Battle
Mountain instead of to Reno, and then
proceed to Austin where conveyance can
be had to the new Ell Dorado. Mr..
Brown speaks very encouragingly Of the
new camp and believes in time it will
grow to be a big mining town. He says
by all means people going and coming
to and from Tonopah should so by the
above route.

ENGINE EXPLOSION.
Particulars Of the Explosion ht Prom
ontOry.

The explosion of the big compound
engine No. 2618 occurred at 2:30 Monday
morning on what is known as Lake Hill.
about seventy miles west Of Ogden.
William A. Wilton. the engineer, Err
win 4. Uphoff, head brakeman, and Will
liam F. Myers, who was riding on the
tank of the engine, were killed outright.
Roy Munsee, the fireman, lived till
lao in the afternoon, after everything
possible had been done for him at the
Ogden general hospital.
The Salt Lake Herald says the en-
CINE was Of the kind known as a com.
pound engine, and until recently has
been rated as having a steam capacity of
900 pounds, but this was lately cut down
to 200 pounds.
The train was an eastbound freight,
and was being helped up Lake Hill, this
side OF ~Promontory, by engine 2618. The
head brakeman was riding in the forward
engine with the engineer and fireman,
and Myers was on the tank of the same
engine, he being an old hostler. The ex-
plosion came suddenly when the train
was about hall -way up the hill.
Death and destruction were scattered
all around. The tender, cab and upper
portion of the boiler we're demolished,
pieces weighing several hundred pounds
being thrown a distance of at least fifty
feet. Wilton and Upboff were thrown
fifty feet from their engine, with a pile Of
wreckage from the cab and a segment of
the boiler. Besides being badly crushed
both men were scalded, and had inhaled
much steam.
Myers was thrown into the air, a big
segment of the wreckage chipping off
the back of his head. He was found on
the track, having fallen directly behind
the second engine.
Munsee was thrown thirty feet. his leg
broken and his chest crushed. He. too,
WAS scalie led and had inhaled steam, but
he lived and was cheerful for several
hours after reaching the hospital at
about 8 o'clock. He could tell little of
the accident, but while the dews OF
death were gathering over his brow,
stated that he remembered noticing the
water glass just before the explosion and
there was plenty of water, the guage
showing the boiler hal. full. One of the
strange things of the explosion is that
the trucks of the wrecked engine did not
leave the track, although the upper part
Of the boiler and tank were demolished
and fragments thrown in all directions.
William A. Wilton, the dead ~ngineer,
was about 81 years Of ge, and leaves a
wife and two young children.
Leroy l.. Mupsee was 10 years of age
and lived with his parents at Promon-
tory.
Erwin Abraham Uphoff was 20 years
oil age and his home was in Chicago.
William F. Myers was a resident Of
Geneseo, Ills, where his mother resides.

WEDDING BELLS.

Last Thursday night. March goth, E.
RI. Lemarie OF Battle Mountain was uni
ted ia marriage to Miss Caroline l..
Palmer at Hope, Kansas.
Ernest left here on the ed day of
February intending, as he said, of going
East on a visit, not even letting his
many friends know that he contemplated
entering the matrimonial moose and his
marriage was a great surprise to his
numerous friends here.
The bride paid Battle Mountain a
visit some SIX years ago and during her
stay here made many friends, and this
was when the young couple first met.
1t was this fact that gave Cupid his op
%portunity, one which he did not neglect
as results prove.
The groom is the Youngest son OF A.
D. Lemaire of this place. He was born
and raised here and is one of our popular
young men.
The young couple will arrive in a few
days and take up their home in Battle
Mountain.
The NEvADAN joins with their many
friends in wishing Mr.. Lemaire and his
bride a "bon voyage on the sea of matri-
mony."

CROSS HOMESTEAD LOST.
Creditors of the Defunct Emporia
Bank to Get the Property.

Emporia. Kas., Noy, 1S.-District
Judge Madden has given his decision in
the case over the H. c. Cross homestead
1t was in favor of the creditors. the de-
posters of the defunct First National
bank of Emporia, which failed in 1898
H. c. Cross was president of the bank
until his death in 1892. The homestead
was retained by Mrs. H. c. Cross after
the death of her husband on strength
of the homestead law. She died last
February and the receiver, Mr. BENSON.
of the defunct bank brought suit for the
homestead. It is one of the finest homes
in EmDOria.
Judge Madden's decision reversed that
of Probate Judge Mason. The home
stead was willed to H. c. Cross grand
daughter, Mary Cross.
The case was brought up on the
ground of a recent supreme court de-
cision- This 7was that a widow dfdn't
constitute a family and hence could not
retain her husbands homestead on the
strength of the homestead law, but that
it is an asset of his estate Mary Cross
side was that she had been adopted by
II. c. Cross, although not legally, and
was his heir. Further, that the property
had been decided over to her before the
case was brought up.
Judge Madden'S opinion was a lengthy
and exha ustive one. He has taken much
time and study in preparing it. In it he
cites many parallel cases and decisions
as reasons for his decision. The case
will go to the supreme court.

1t was cool and cloudy and the dogs
could work without distress. The hunt

a shot are pretty badly discouraged but
they were hoping against hope for bet

seems less concerned over his i'll for
