Episcopal Services.

Episcopal services in the office of Lind &
Collins last Friday evening After the
services he stated that he came here at
the request of the Bishop to look over
the field, and it is probable that on his
advice a clergyman will be appointed
who will divide his time between Gold
field and Tonopah for the present. A
collection, amounting to $500, was taken
mp but was turned over to the Ladies'
Aid Society. While here Rev. Uns-
worth was entertained by Mr.. and Mrs.
Wadleigh.

many who know the population of the

Died on The Desert.

A special to the Reno journal says:
dennis Whalin, construction foreman
for the Salt Lake road, while riding from
one construction camp to another in
Devils Playground, became lost, and
after three days wandering, during
which time not a drop of water passed his
lips, he crawled into a cave. where he
was found by two prospectors, w. A..
Taber and E. Mars. The prospectors
were attracted to the cave by the pres
ence Of a mans coat. They found
Whalin crouched in a corner demented.
He had dug into the sand until his fin
gers were raw and nailless. They started
with him toward Marvel, expecting to
be able to reach that point with him. but
death came before they had penetrated
into Ivanvah Valley.

Good Work for Goldfield People.

To THE EDITOR OF The News:
In a quiet, u%nassuming way, the Rev
erend Father Gleeson has been steadily
promoting an interest il the work he has
undertaken 10 setting up a temporary
place of worship for the Catholic people
of Goldfeld. A few outside parties hav-
ing interests in this district, and several
of Father Gleason's pers nal friends who
have no interests at all in the camp. have
generously come to his aid. With these
gifts, together with the amount which
there is every reason to expect the good
people of Goldfield will be- willing to CON
tribute it will be possible to start in
building at any early date. The good
work taken in hand by this earnest, self
sacrificing priest, should appeal to all
who take an interest in the up.building
and growing welfare OF the town, and
gain fer him their hearty cooperation.
Though OF delicate physique, Father
GleesOn has, on OCCASION. taken off his
coat, and help.d with his own hands in
the actual work of repairing on church
and building a new one in other parts of
his wide mis- ion. Stand in with him
aud lend a helping hand.

Excursion from Reno to Tonopah.

A movement has been started in Reno
tending to run an excursion over the new

line is completed into the bonanza camp,

doubt but what the event would be a
grand success and it is already assured
that the people of Tonopah would give
the visitors a royal welcome. Reno has
gained much from Tunopah and it is no
more than right that the people of this
city should join in celebrating the com
pletion of the new road. an enterprise
that means SO much for the future of the

A Slick SWindler.

A young man known as Martin, a re-
cent arrival from Tonopah, struck Haw-
thorne last Monday, says the Bulletin.
In the evening he procured a lot of poker
chips and opened a game in one of our
saloons. The game ran all night. At 5
o'clock Tuesday morning he had sold
outstanding about 500 worth of chips.
Then he excused himself, saying that he
desired to go out for a moment. He
went, leaving the chips with the players.
But he forgot to return and redeem the
chips. and up to this time nothing has
been seen of him. The principal victim
is a Goldfield miner: He has his pockets
full of chips, but he cannot cash them.

MAY PREVENT
COTTON STRIKE
Board of ArbitratOrs Trying
to Avert Trouble Between
Operators and Employees
SIGNS ARE PROMISING
Workers Are Making Strong
Demand That the Proposed
Reduction Be Abandoned

FALL RIVER, Mass, July p -
Through the good offices and prompt
action of the State Board of Arbitration
there seems tonight to be a ray of
hope for an amicable settlement of the
controversy between the cotton mill
manufacturers and their employees, who
on Wednesday night voted to go on
strike next Monday rather than sub
nit to a 121z per cent reduction in
wages. Such a strike would involve
more than $4,000 operatives.
This afternoon the secretaries of the
five unions and representatives of the
manufacturers met in conference with
the arbitration board.
Representatives of the operatives
say they want an abandonment of the
proposed wage reduction. The mill
officials stated cOncisely why the re-
duction was necessary from financial
point of view.
The arbitration board then conferred
separately with each committee and
later the two bodies met in joint con-
ference again and threshed out the
whole matter.
This last meeting continued we'll into
the night At it's conclusion President
Howland of the arbitration board said
that the demands of the textile work
ers would be considered by all the
manufacturers at a meeting to be held
at 1890 o'clock tomorrow morning.
