Died.

BIGELow-In ioyalton, July rs,
1904, Frances, beloved wife of w. f.
Bigelow, aged 81 yrs. 3 mos. % days.
Mrs. Bigelow gave birth to little
girl baby about two weeks ago and
was compelled to undergo an operat-
ion later. Her system was not able to
stand the shock and death came as a
release. She leaves besides her hus-
band and the infant little girl about
three years old. In the same house
are two 9-months old children, twins,
who weigh six pounds each. Their
mother, who was sister-in-law of the
deceased, was buried 8 months before,
to the hour, dying of the same cause.
The care of these four children, three
of them helpless, fall upon the grand
mother. -Loyaltonian.

No Word from Andrews.

The disappearance of c. A. Andrews
continues to be the chief topic OF
conversation. Andrews has some
loyal friends here who still believe
that he met with foul play. The facts
i'm the case, however, are so over
whelmingly against that theory that
it is a severe strain on his friends con-
fldence in his integrity. 1t has come
to light that he informed a soiled
dove of Reno, with whom he evident
" associated, that he intended going
to Honolulu and desired her to ac-
company him. She declined with
thanks.
Every day brings forth a new crsdi-
tor. and tbs now estimated that his
debts will aggregate close to $4,000.
The writer knows of 81 $50 that he
failed to settle, so it is more than
probable that $4,000 is too low an
estimate Owing to the natural reti-
cence of some of those he induced TO
help him financially, it is not likely
that the exact sum he abseonded with
will ever be known.
The fact that Andrews, n man who
did not possess extravagant tastes and
who during his six years residence
here, was constantly employed, would
lead one to believe that his departure
was one of long reconciliation and
not in the least hurried. He was of a
cool, calculating nature, and things
certainly came his way.
Charley is now probably basking in
| the warm Honolulu sun, and in idle
| moments comparing the eruption
caused by his departure with the
more gentle ones of Mona Loa. But
he might take time to write a letter
| home.

Brutality Beaten and Robbed.

VIM. Reeda, a laborer, was nearly
killed and then robbed of his summers
earnings last Friday at the Owl saloon,
house of i'll fame at Millerville.
He was slightly under the influence
of liquor and was treating when some
FOUNDERS attempted to butt in. Reeda
objected to treating the whole house
and was called outside by Newhaus.
When near the door he was struck
with a club, knocked senseless and
then most cruelty kicked about the face
and body by these inhuman brutes
Not content with nearly killing their
victim his assailants went through his
pockets and robbed him of twenty
dollars.
1t was several hours before Reeda
regained consciousness and when he
did he made his way to town For a
time it was thought that he was
internally injured.
The above is simply Reeda's version
of the affair, but things have been con-
Quoted with high hand at this in
famous den for some time, and it is
time that an investigation of this
place was made.

An Honest Company.

!. A. Fugerson, HOME Office rep
resentative of the Pacific Mutual
Life Insurance Company, is stopping
at the East Fork hotel
In March he came over by the
Siberia from Japan, where he had
been nearly two years ut Insurance
work. The first work given him by the
Pacific Mutual Life was the reorgani-
cation of Nevada. Mr.. Furgerson was
much impressed with the possibilities
of"rhe New Nevada Nevada will
not have hard times like the East He
had chance to test the Company's
business methods shortly after his
arrival. Among the names of those
holding policies in the Company, was
that of John Rosser of Carson. On
asking where Mr.. Rosser lived, he was
informed that Mr.. Rosser had died
over three years ago. He wrote the
head office at San francisco stating
that there must be some mistake
However, TO his surprise, the Com
pany wrote that John Rosser nearly
80 years ago had failed to make pay
ment on policy which he had taken
out and instead of losing the benefit
of his previous payments, his estate
became entitled to paid up policy of
SO. 300.
The Company had not heard of Mr..
Rosser's death and directed their
representative to hunt up his heirs
and they would pay the claim in full
Mr.. Rosser's widow had no policy, no
receipts, no letters or documents of
any kind showing any payments had
ever been made for life insurance and
could not credit the statement that this
money was to be paid. However,
after some correspondence, she took
/ letters of administration and as soon
as necessary papers were completed
she was paid $500.
Col. John Rosser was we'll known
in this vicinity and the case has at
tracted a great deal of attention.
The Pacific Mutual has since April
established agencies at Reno, Elko,
Winnemucca, Virginia City and
Fallon and have appointed c. E.
Southworth agent at Gardnerville.
We found Mr.. Furgerson full OF
interesting information and well vers-
ed in international politics. He was
a member of the Ontario bar and be,
fore going to Japan had twice visited
Europe.
OF Japan he speaks with enthuasi
astic admiration. Lack of space pre-
vents the publication of his remarks
on that country, but they will appear
in full next week.

Lawn Party.

Last Saturday night Miss Lena
Larson delightfully."- entertained a
number of friends. The guests, a
bout thirty in number, were invited
to meet at her home and from there
the merry makers repaired to the
Grove, which was tastefully decorated
with chinese lanterns and bunting.
Upon some of the trees that afforded
cosy retreats, We're signs bearing such
awful warnings as: mo Spooning
Here" sOnly Two Kisses Allowed, -
etc. OF course the guests were con-
siderate enough to heed the admon-
itions of their hostess. 1t is said, how
ever, that one young gentleman-he
asked us not to publish his name
maliciously put a 0 after the ., MAX
ing it read 20, but in justice to him
let it be said that the said tree seemed
to be exceedingly attractive after the
change.
But, seriously, it was the social
function of the season. The unique
decorations aroused much interest
and the games and refreshments made
the hours swiftly pass. 1t was late
hour when the guests took their de
parture, all voting Miss Larson {
charming hostess.

 This is campaign year and you will want to be informed of the movements of party leaders, re- ports of the great national and state conventions, the progress of the campaign, reports of the election, etc.
