Hon. ThOs. Wren
Dead.

Hon. Thomas Wren died Mt Reno last
Friday afternoon of pneumonia after
protracted illness He bad been a
resident OF Nevada since 1863. In the
excitement OF Reese river, in 1863, he
went to Austin, Lander county, Nevada,
where he entered upon the practice of
law. From 1864 to 1866 he was city at
torney OF Austin. In 1868 he went to
White Pine county at that time the El
Dorado of America. While there he en-
tered a co partnership with the Hon.
Chas. E. ID. DeLong. He was associated
with l.. 4. Aldrich and j. S. Slousson
leading mining lawyers of eastern Ne
vada. White Pine began to decline in
1873 and MIR. Wren removed to Eureka
Nevada. He was prominent in State
politics representing Eureka county in
the lower house Of the legislature in 1875.
In 1876 he was elected member OF the
45th Congress on the Republican ticket
and made an able and painstaking repre-
sentative, retiring of his own violition at
the expiration OF his term and resuming
the practice Of law and was in the front
rank OF members OF the Nevada bar.
He was native of Ohio, aged so years,
and leaves widow and two daughters.

The Leading Fac
tors

The prospector, the newspaper and
the promoter are the leading factors in
the up-bulding of mining district.
The prospector makes the discovery, the
newspaper advertises his find to the
world, and the promoter interests capi-
tai to develop the property. They are
all essential 10 their various spheres, and
without them the country would remain
unproductive. OF the three the pro-
motor, comes in for the most abuse, and
as general thing it is undeserved. The
promoter, like the prospector, is an en-
thusiast, and it is well that he is, for no
man caa talk up an enterprise in which
he lacks faith. The mining sections OF
the west owe much to the promoter. IL
a property turns out well he makes but
little out OF it. II it is a failure he Is
held responsible for it. His life is full OF
cares, and he is often more deserving OF
sympathy than censure.

The Baltimore
Fire

The most destructive fire in the his
tory OF the country broke out in the
cellar of John E. Hurst Company, cor
ner of Liberty and Geran streets, Balti-
more, Sunday about IL o'clock in the
forenoon and burned continuously until
late Monday afternoon when it was
gotten under control. The FIRE is said
to have started from Spontaneous CON-
bustlon but this is a matter of coniect-
ure.
The wind blew fierce gale scattering
cinders and Goals over the doomed city
making it impossible for the fremen to
successfully cope with the fire. Dyna-
mite was also used, but the flames leap
ed over the vacant spaces and eat their
way through fire proof buildings on the
other side.
The burned district is fully two miles
square Scores of what were palatial
modern and so-called fire proof build
ings were destroyed and the loss is esti
mated all the way from s20O,000,000 to
$3O0,000,000.
While the property loss will exceed
that of the Chicago fire, only one person
is reported to have lost his life. He was
New York fireman who was caught b,
falling wall.
Governor Warfeld has placed the city
under martial law and called an extra
session of the Maryland legislature.

SHELTER TO
START UP
AGAIN.

Preparations now in progress at the
local offices of the Glasgow & Western
Exploration company foretell season Of
unprecedented activity within its Ne.
vada diggings while the physical condi-
ton of its mines affords abundant assur-
auce Of season of Unprecedented pro-
ductiveness, says the Salt Lake Tribune
of February 4.
Just as gratifying to the inhabitants
of Golconda, at which point the COM
pany's furnaces we're installed several
years ago will be the assurance of Man
ager Stalmann, who has just returned
from Europe, that the smelter will go
into active commission with the thawing
out OF waters on which it is dependent,
while to render the plant more efficient
an electrical process, tried out by the
management with the most satisfactory
results, ia being added to it.
With this equipment the management
will be prepared to fry the wealth out OF
at least 100 tons of ore daily, and with Il
steady supply of water there is nothing
to indicate other than that operations at
the furnaces will be continuous.
At the various mines embraced within
the company's possessions work has
been progressing steadily and with the
most gratifying results under the exper.
fenced direction of Superintendent JOS
eph Farren, new ore bodies having been
added to old ones until the supply ap-
pears almost exhaustless.
AT the Adelaide group, the Copper
Mountain and Copper Basin groups the
work, indeed, since the blowing out oil
the furnace ut Golconda has been in al.
most unbroken stretches of ore, the rock
furnishing an ideal smelling proposition
1t is with these sources of wealth that
the smelter is being improved. and the
day Of reimbursement should soon ap.
pear. Meanwhile the Star mine al
Cherry Creek has been dividing its
high grade ores between the furnaces ol
this valley and those of other localities
and affording nice piece of revenue
although mo attempts has been made to
crowd shipments. The outlook for the

LETTER FROM JEFFERSON
Oklahoma Indians Have Treasured
Document Written by President
of tile United States.

An autograph letter from Thomas
Jefferson, written 100 years ago to the
Indians of the Louisiana purchase, has
recently been unearthed from the ar
chiveu of the Sac and Fox Indians in
Oklahoma, says the Chicago Inter
Ocean. The Indians in whose posses.
sion the document as been for a CEN
tury have not known its value, but in
tuitively they have carefully kept the
letter during all their migrations.
The letter. which is quite long, re-
vcals Mr.. Jefferson's a%stureness III
dealing with the Indians. AT his invi-
tation several powerful chiefs jour-
neyed from west of the Mississippi
river to Washington and rel enter
tanned at the nations capitol. When
they started on their journey home
they carried the presidents letter. In
the letter Mr.. Jefferson called attention
to the long journey they had made
through the white mans territory and
to how the white men had improved
the land during the short while they
| had been in possession of 1t. The let
ter tactfully showed to the Indians
how hopeless would be a contest
| against the whites. Jefferson in the
letter called the Indians his children
and advised against tribal wars.

PUBLIC OPINION
Editor Evening News:

Editor. Evening News:
l WINS rather astonished to see an
article in Yesterdays issue of this
paper containing some Statements,
rather deroRatory, TO the local lodge
of Elks. AS chairman of the com
mittee on the excursion l consider it
my duty to reply to same, showing
why the T%ottenvilIs Band was hired
and Mr.. Esbsrg's Willingness to knock
our lodge.
At first 1t was the intention of tho
committee to engage the band of
South Amboy, this being a union
band; but we were unable to do so.
The next nearest band we could get
was the one from Tottenville.
Whether or not any union men played
with them Is not the fault of our
lodge. They agreed to furnish a GER
tain number of instruments and we
had them. What we were after was
a band we'll organized and n that
could furnish music and play the
same faultlessly. This they did be-
You'd our expectation.
AS to the protest sent to the lodge.
No such a thing was everd one. Mr..
Esbcrg has seen some individual
members, but can that be called com-
municating with the lodge?
Finally Mr.. Esberg saw me as to
furnishing an orchestra for the o
sion. and was told by me that the
Tottenville Band had been engaged.
Seeing that nothing could be done in
this line, he proposed that tho Elks
hire some strings for dancing. My
reply was that we would have no
dancing on board the vessel. 1t really
looks MS though the loss was a private
ono of Mr.. Esberg and not That of tho
union. Mr.. Esberg knows in his heart
that we haves always upheld the
unions and that we will continue to
do DO, because wo believe in them.
am positive that had an official com
m~unication boon sent to us by the
union, action would lave been taken
upon it. -
