SENT TO Pen
Sam Parks Sentenced to Two
and a Half Years on Charge
of ExtOrtiOn

New York, Nov. 6.-Sam Parks was
today sentenced to- two years and
three months in Sing Sing prison.
This sentence was passed on the
charge of extorting $500 from the Tiff
fany studios.
1t was alleged that Parks as walk
ing delegate of the Housesmiths' and
Bridgemen's unions forced the Tiffany
studios to pay him $500 to call off a
strike.
This was Parks second sentence for
extortion. He was released from Sing
Sing on certificate of reasonable
doubt after his first sentence.
In imposing sentence Judge New
burger said he took into consideration
the physical condition of Parks, who
is said by physicians to be suffering
from consumption in an advanced
stage.
Parks, whose customary air of de-
ianee, has entirely deserted him,
heard the sentence without a move
ment of feature or outward sugges ion
of emotion.
Former District Attorney James w.
Osborne, Parks counsel, said that he
would in all probability appeal, but
at no certificate of reasonable doubt
would be applied for

to the public-so much so in fact that
the mechanic. laborer. merchant,
housewife, errand boy, or professional
man can find in it just the informa-
ton that he desires.
AS to the location of the library
it would seem that inasmuch as the
public schools have no public library,
it would be an excellent thing to erect
the library somewhere between the
court house and the public schools,
and by putting in concrete sidewalks
from the Southern Pacific depot to
the library and from there to the
court house would make it easy OF
access from every point.
The library ought by right to be
under the management of the board
OF school trustees, for it is an insti-
tuition designed to benefit the mass OF
people out of school; and since it will
county indirectly, it ought to be under
the control of the board of trustees
and not the County Commissioners.
The subscription list will be start
ed early next week and those who
subscribe will be asked to make a
payment Of one-half the amount sub
scribed to the board of trustees on De-
cember /, and the balance on Janu-
airy 1. The money will be paid only
to the board of trustees or their or
der, aad the board Will nave the en-
tire management of every dollar SUBJ
scribed for the library.
1t seems to us that the plan out
lined above ought to meet with ap-
proval and support of every citizen in
the town. 1t is an institution that
our town needs, and needs badly.

Letter From d Friend Regard
ing Some of Nevadd's Edu-
CdtiOnal Institutions

Battle Mountain, Nov. 6.-Editor
Silver State: 1t has been our very
agreeable privilege. within the last
month, to visit several of our schools.
We now wish to make a general state
ment of the favorable impressions re-
ceived and, to encourage, if possible.
the parents of the pupils and others
who may find it convenient to do SO,
to inspire by visitation the pupils
and teachers in their arduous labors
and splendid achievements in our
public schools.
We imagine that it demands no
small amount of courage and patient
endurance to meet each day with a
cheerful face AMI brave heart the
chalk-dust and heat, perhaps soon to
be chalk-dust and cold, or possibly
cEalk-dust and smoke, of the school
room, and carry forward the labora OF
the previous day. Yet it is certain
that a cheerful temperament and
brave heart are quite essential to the
teacher acquiring to be successful, and
the familiar maxim: "a cheerful
spirit sweetens TOLL is expressive OF
disposition of mind well suited to
all aspiring students. Why, then,
should not the teachers be insured of
the confidence and support of the par
ents, and the pupils likewise be
evinced of their cooperation and joint
enthusiasm In the meritorious work
by occasional visits from them? Ger
tainly such visitation would brighten
the school hours and encourage the
hearts of both teachers and pupils.
Allow us to mention briefly the
schools in this section and the work
they are doing.
At Carlin the primary department,
is crowded with wideawake little fel-
lows, busily engaged in picking up
small grains of knowledge to build in
! to a future temple of advanced learn
ing. Their bright eyes sparkle with
admiration for their teacher, and we
/ Judge that Miss Scott is wise and
capable tutor.
In the principal department we
were, paid the thoughtful courtesy or
a few words of welcome, aptly spoken,
| in behalf of the school, by a member
of the graduating class. One of the at
trsctive features of this room is what
teacher and pupils proudly designate
as "our art gallery" 1t consists in
choice selection of the portraits or
noted characters, such as statesmen,
poets. etc. The work of the depart
ment is being thoroughly done and is
highly eommendable. The principal,
Miss Plum, is beyond doubt compe-
tent and successful instructor.
! AT Palisade Mrs. Hagar commands
the respect and directs the minds or
twenty-three pupils in a successfui
nursuit of knowledge. The examina-
ZION napers manifest careful and intel
llieent work. One of the papers In Or
typography consisting, we DeleVe. IN
125 three-syllable words, was perfect.
The teachers motto, well impressed
upon the minds of her pupils, is ap-
narently this: Let all things De
done decently and in order.

Heroic Mine Superintendent
at Virginia City, Mont,
Dragged Out Dead
WAS EXPERT ON CYANIDING
Disaster Was Caused by Fire
Many More May Have
Perished

Butte, Mont, Nov 6.-The shaft
house and boiler house of the Kear-
sarge mine near Virginia City, Mont,
owned by United States Senator Mil
lard of Nebraska, burned this morn
ing.
Superintendent Turner and six 9TH
er men have been dragged out dead.

R. B. Turner was an expert on cy
aniding plants in the northwest. He
came to Montana from Colorado one
year ago.
LATER DETAILS.
Seven are dead, a number more
burned and perhaps scores lost in the
underground workings in fire which
started in the Kearsarge mine, situ-
ated at Summit, eight miles from here
this morning. The known dead are
Superintendent Turner, miner
named Tobin, and five other miners,
too badly burned to be identified.
These seven bodies have been recov-
cred.
From fifty to seventy-fve men are
still down in the mine and may have
perished from flames or smoke. The
plant employed 200 men. 1t is the
property of United States Senator Mil
lard of Nebraska, and was valued at
about s1,000,000. There is no way to
estimate the loss. The fire, which
started at 7 o'clock this morning as
the shifts were being changed, still
RACES fiercely. and the rescuers, hun
dreds of whom have gone from Vir
ginia City, will be hampered, as there
is no apparatus at the mine.
1t is not known how the fire started.
Superintendent Turner gave his life
Tor his men. He was at breakfast and
partly dressed when the alarm came.
Dashing into the house in his shirt
sleeves, with another miner whose
name has not been learned, Turner
made his way to the main tunnel.
Here they found everything on fire.
They CROPPED their way down and in
and dragged out five bodies, including
Tobin's. In a second attempt they
did not come out, and were later
brought forth dead by the rescuers,

Later reports indicate that all OF
the men in the mine with the excep-

through other workings. 1t is posi-

The House..

Thursdays Afternoon SESSION.
After the message from Delegate
ID. S. Rodey to Hon. Frank A. Hubbell
had been read in the house yesterday
afternoon, during the discussion on the
creation of Quay county, Mr.. Lew
ellyn arose and was addressing the
chair when Mr.. Martinez moved to ad-
journ until 10 o'clock in the morning,
but the chairman ruled him out of or
der because he was making the motion
while another had the floor. AS soon
as Mr.. Liewellyn finished, Mr.. Martinez
resumed his motion to adjourn, but
this was voted down. Minor amend
ments were then adopted. Cristobal
Sanchez then presented an amendment
to change the name of the county from
Leonard Wood to Quay. Mr.. Llewellyn
moved to table the amendment. Mr..
Sanchez withdrew his amendment. Mr.,
McIvers moved to adjourn but the mo-
ton was lost. MI. Bowie presented an

bill No. 81, which is on the calendar.
to repeal the exemption law. Mr.. Pol
lard said the bill did not increase the
exemption but he was opposed to the
bill EeCause it was substantially the
same as the law now on the statutes.
Cristoval Sanchez and Pedro Sanchez
spoke in favor of the bill. The vote to
table the minority report stood 16 yeas
and 6 nays. Mr.. Pollard moved to
amend the bill SO as to exempt San
Juan county. Cristoval Sanchez moved
to further amend so as to include Luna
county in the original amendment and
Mr.. Pollard accepted 1t. The amend
ment was then tabled by a vote of II
to 3. The bill was read the third time
by title and passed by 10 yeas to 4
nays.
The regular order was then taken up
and the finance committee presented
its report on the accounts of the chief
clerk. Two reports were presented.
The majority report recommends the
payment of so cents extra to commit
tee clerks. A full statement of the ac-
counts of the house for the session is
included and then the majority recon-
mended that the clerks named by Mr..
McCash and Mr.. Coleman be paid only
from the date of their employment.
The report commends the speaker for
his careful disbursements of the
moneys.
The minority report recommended
that the employees named by Mr.. Nc
Cash and Mr.. Coleman be allowed full
| pay for the second ten days. On all
other points the minority report en-
| dorsed the report of the majority. Mr..
Turner moved to accept the majority
report but Cristoval Sanchez moved
as an amendment that the minority
report be adopetd. Mr.. Sanchez said
the agreement among the republicans
was that these employees were to be
paid for the second ten days. Mr..
Turner, Mr.. Pollard and Mr.. Bowie
said the statement was incorrect. Mr..
| Turner said that he had made nc such
agreement and that had the caucus
made such an agreement he would not
hesitate to violate it. He was opposed
to paying men for time when they were
not employed. The records of the eau
Gus was called for and statements re-
quested of Mr.. Llewellyn as chairman
of the caucus, and of Mr.. Baca as sec
rotary. The amendment was adopted
nv "a to q and the minority reDOrt
adopted.

read and approved. AS the chaplain
was absent, prayer was dispensed with.
Mr.. Romero moved to suspend the
rules and take up house substitute for
house bill No. Ga, commonly known as
the exemption bill" Mr.. Bowie OPP
posed wasting time in suspending
rules. The provision of the bill is that
exemption shall apply not only to real
but also to personal property of heads
of families. The rules were suspended
by a vote of 16 to 7. The majority of
the committee recommended the pas
sage of the substitute, but the minority
was opposed to it. Mr.. Pollard moved

JUDGE FOR YOURSELF.
Which Is Better-Try al Experiment
or Profit by an Albuquerque Citi-
zen's Experience.

Something new is an experiment.
Must be prove to be as represented.
The statement of a manufacturer is
not convincing proof of merit,
But the endorsement of friends is.
Now supposing you had a bad back,
A lame, weak or aching one,
Would you experiment on it?
You will read of many so-called
cures
Endorsed by strangers from fac-
away places.
It's different when the endorsement
zones from home.
Easy to prove local testimony.
Home endorsement is the proof that

Pills.
Read this case:
w. r. Trip. engineer at the Hotel
Alvarado, residence 511 South Broad

only symptom of kidney trouble my
case would probably have been very
simple, but when there was added to 1t
trouble with the kidney secretions the
complications did not respond to medi.
cine as readily as | expected. About

procured at the Alvarado Phar'
macy tided me over one which was
only a successor of similar predeces-
sors. For six months have had i'm

to adjourn. The last motion was de-
clared u Of order by the speaker and
the previous question was ordered. The
bill was then read the third time. Mr..
Turner presented an amendment and
said that in the passage of the bill ere
ating Quay county. there had been
caused a slight discrepancy in the
boundary lines between the two coun-
ties and it was desired to correct this
in the present bill. Mr.. Gutierrez
moved to table the amendment but the
motion was lost. Martin Sanchez hen
moved to adopt the amendment and
Mr.. Llewellyn demanded the previous
question. Mr.. Gutierrez moved to
table Mr.. Sanchez's motion but was
declared out of order. The amendment
was then adopted. Mr.. Sanchez moved
the reading of the bill by title prepare
tory to it's passage and Mr.. Llewellyn
demanded the previous question. Again
Mr.. Gutierrez moved to table Mr.. San
CHEFS motion and again motion was
declared out of order. The bill was
read by title and Mr.. Baca moved the
passage of the bill while Mr.. Dalies de-
manded the previous question. On the
roll call on the previous question Mr..
Gutierrez made an impassioned speech
against receiving such treatment and
declared he was given no rights or
privileges whatever. Mr.. Baca finally
demanded hat he be called to order as
he was not explaining his vote and the
speaker took the same view of the
question. The main question vas or
dered b va vote Of IS to 6 and the bill
was then passed by 10 ayes to 5 nays.

BRYAN AT NAPOLEON'S TOMB.
Dispatches Say He Meditated an Hour
Bareheaded.
(Memphis Commercial-Appeal.) }

MIR. Bryan medtated an hour, bare
headed, in front Of Napoleon's tomb in
the Dome Des Invalides yesterday but
he would not tell what conclusions he
reached.-Syndicate dispatch to various
American newspapers.
1t is to be hoped that the reporter did
not disturb MIR. Bryan in such a solemn
hour or interrupt the train of thought
which had the right Of way in his mind
When a man meditates an hour, bare
headed, in front of Napoleon's tomb. it
may be fairly supposed that he is iu-
cUbating thoughts which shall later find
utterance at SO much per head or so
much per column. The process of par
turition will develop in Mr.. Bryan later
either on the lecture platform or in the
Commoner. Some years ago Mr.. Waiter
son strolled abroad, and in the course
OF his summer wanderings he visited the
tomb of the man who changed the map
OF Europe. He gave his impressions in
the columns of the Courier-Journal and
in the course of a column OF remarks
he said
Il have just come from one of my
visits to the tomb of Napoleon. 1t is al
together the most beautiful, and at the
same time the most imposing, sepulchre
IN the world. ~ To my mind Napoleon
Bonaparte was a type OF all that is
wicked and monstrous in human nature
and destiny; an arch-fend with fren
zied gift of military ambition and genius;
and in no sense worthy of such temple
Bonaparte was not a stateman and
he was not a patriot He was not even
a Frenchman. He was vulgar. foreign
|adyenturer, who had discovered new
