CHARLOTTE CUSHMAN.

Bitter Ending of the One Love Affair
of the Famous Actress.
Charlotte Cushman, the actress. was

Cincinnati, where she was playing, in
actor named Clark. with whom she fell
In love- Through her efforts Clark was
advanced to leading man In the COM
pany, and the course of true love ran
smoothly.
One night the actress met a strange
woman behind the scenes between the
acts.
The woman came up to her and ad-
dressed her thus:
"You are Charlotte Cushman. the
great actress. Haven't you got enol b
men to admire you without coming be-
tween man and wife and robbing me
of my husbandY

man. getting excited.
yes, and you have taken+o or you are
trying to take him from me-" contin-
ued the ragged woman. looking Miss
Cushman full In the face.
"Who is your husbandf
Conrad Clark" replied the woman,
"the father OF this child" pointing to a
half starved, thin little child in her
arms.
Miss Cushman started as IL she had
been shot.
She went through her part that night
as usual--acted it splendidly-brought
down the house; then. after the per-
Torrance, she sent for Clark to come TO
her dressing room. Clark knocked and
then opened the door. She brought for
ward to him his wife and baby. who
had been waiting in the dressing room
to receive him.
Such receptionl Charlotte Cushman
never looked or acted so grandly on the
stage in all her life as she did that
night in her dressing room. She waved
Clark away with a greater majesty
than ever as Queen Catherine she
waved away Cardinal Wolsey. and then
going to her hotel probably she had q
good crying spell.
But she never loved again.

KILLED BY A BLAST.
Bert Switzerland Sustains Fatal
Injuries at Everett's Camp.

Bert Switzerland, aud John Quincy
Adams, two miners employed at Frank
Everetts camp, were the victims of a
blasting accident Monday afternoon,
resulting in the death of Switzerland
and serious injury of Adams.
Thetwo menswere engaged In blast
ing rock from a ditch being construct
ed for mining purposes on the Carson
river when the awful affair occurred.
A number of holes had been charged
with dynamite and all the men had re-
tired safe distance after setting off
the fuse to await the explosion. All
the charges went off but one and the
men still stood back waiting for the
last shot to respond. Switzerland
stepped up to examinetit but was told
several times to come away, as the ex-
plosion was liable to occur at any
minute. Switzerland was a fearless
fellow and he raised his pick and
struck the rock. An explosion was
the result, Switzerland and Adams
being the only men in range of the
dynamite's deadly work. The right
side of Adams face was almost torn
off, and Switzerland was horribly
mangled. Several bones of his left
forearm were broken, his entire face
was disfgured and mashed into jelly,
parts of the scalp were torn loose
from his head exposing the skull and
two of his fingers were blown away.
Dirt, sand and gravel filed every
wound and it was the most gastly
sight man could look upon.
He was brought to Gardnerville and
DR.. Hawkins summoned to dress the
wounds. The doctor did all in his
power to save the unfortunate man,
but all efforts were fruitless and he
died Wednesday morning at 8 o'clock.
Adams wounds were dressed and he
is now able to be around town, but
says he has suffered untold misery.
He may lose the sight of one eye.
Switzerland was at the Gardnerville
Hotel when his death came, and Mr..
and Mrs. Everett were at his bedside
at every opportunity and rendered all
the assistance possible to the unfortu-
nate victim of carelessness.
Mr.. Switzerland was a native of
Oregon. He had no relation in Ne
vada and but very little is known of
his history. Ten minutes before the
explosion occurred he had commenced
to tell Mr.. Adams, who was working
alongside him, something concerning
his past life. He said his father and
mother were both dead and that he
had brother residing somewhere in
Oregon, but did not know just where.
He was about 80 years of age.
The funeral services were held in
the Methodist Church yesterday morn
ing at 10 o'clock, Rev. w. P. Rankin
officiating. The men at Everett's
camp quit work and attended the
funeral
