There was a strange incident took
place in the sheriff's Office Thursday
afternoon. Under Sheriff Jas. Sias
was hurriedly called from his desk

lying in plain sight. After he had
been away a few moments it occurred
to him that he had left the money
there and also that he left a lawyer,
a mining man and a newspaper report
er In the office. His heart almost
stopped beating as he thought of that
money lying there helpless before such
a combination. He hurried back and
to his establishment the money was
still there. The only way the accounts
for the fact was the restraining in
fiuence of the district attorney on

way he accounts for the lawyer not
getting the coin was that he must have
| thought it was nailed to the desk.
