Carsacs SharOa Tells the Chronicle
q t. Great Gold canp.

Clarence Sharon, the well-known met
allurgist and assayer. who returned from
0oldfeld Thursday night. brings a tale
Of wonderful richness from that wonder
full camp q y the Virginia City Chronicle.
He carries with him a small piece of
sandstone rock that contains more
gold in weight than the rock itself
weighs. He also carries specimens from
other properties. all of which 60 to show
that the tales hitherto told OF the new
bonanza are all true.
Mr.. Sharon is in raptures over the
place and has taken up some property
himself and will return to the camp in a
lew weeks to arrange for its development
As to the nature Of the country he says
it il entirely different from anything he
has ever seen. The lodges lie in ever,
direct. IN for miles around. The contour
Of the country bears mute evidence to q
violent erosion centuries ago.
He says that as far as development
has zone It is the richest gold camp in
the worlj. The deepest workings in the
camp are ouly 260 feet. At that depth
the ore begins 10 change TO the sulphide
variety. THIS ne considers the best in
dicstion of permanently. Most Of the
work is being done by sub-leasers. FL.
says hat it vii be only a matter of time
vhan q branch railroad will be built to
The canp. As in the case Of Tonopah il
viii he the means of working properties
that now lie idle. Lumber at the place
costs from $50 to $40 per thousand,
though o'her supplies are comparativel,
cheap.
Mr., Sharon says that the accommoda-
hons are as good as can be expected in a
place of the kind and that prices are
within the bounds OF season. Over LOCO
men are working around the camp or
srcspecting in the surrounding country.
He eopsidey the camp to. have unbound
I'd possibilities ana says it will startie
Ae world mnch more than it has done
already.

crossing. The exact cause of the wreck could not be learned, though it seems to have been caused by the switch failing to work.
 The track is strewn with the debris for quite a distance and the rails were torn and twisted for fifty or sixty yards. The chair ear and Pullman were badly damaged and the wonder is that no one was hurt beyond a few scratches. The Pullman was set out here, as it was not in a safe condition to be taken further.
 The railroad people put an ex- tra force of men at work repair ing the track and cleaning up the rubbish. The track was in as safe condition as ever by noon.

JUSTICE OF PEACE
 CALLS COLLECTOR GREER
Mixup Between Esquire Brown and Lawyer Who Used Pro-
 fame Language.

Little Rock, Nov. 3.-Justice of the Peace Andy A. Brown and w. L. Greer, proprietor of a col lecting agency in this city, be- came involved in a personal diff culty shortly after 12o'clock yes- terday. MT. Greer's left shoul- der was dislocated, while Justice Brown received several cuts across the face from a pair of scissors. The trouble grew out of an old agreement between Justice Blackwood, whom Justice Brown succeeded, and Mir. Greer. According to MT. Brown. the trouble started on Wednesday. He said that he issued a dismis- sal of a garnishment against a negro and that Greer got mad and assaulted him.
 'I was standing in the hall, just outside of my door, when Greer came along,'' said MT. Brown. My daughter was here in the office, and Greer cursed several times. l told him that l wouldn't make any agreement with him, and that if he didn't like my style of business he had remedy. Several words passed between us and he struck at me. I struck him several times and had him down on the floor when his stenographer came in. She pulled me backwards and placed me at such a disadvantage that l would probably have been in- jured but for the interference of others. Greer got hold of a pair of scissors I had in my vest pock- ct and scratched me across the face several times"

ATTEMPTED ASSAULT
 BY NEGRO BRUTE
Made Upon Mrs. Minnie Clark Early Thursday Evening on
 Her Way Down Town.

An attempted assault was made Thursday evening about 7:45 o'clock on Mrs. Minnie Clark, the sister of Mrs. Farmer, who both live on Vine street, between Second and Third. As was her habit after supper, she had started to town, though the streets were dark, as the electric lights had not been turned on, and had reached the alley back of J. B. Finley's, when a negro about six feet tall rushed upon her. Screaming for help, this brave woman fought off the brute until help arrived from people living nearby.
 ! The negro then ran west and was traced by means of the blood hounds to the Warren hotel, run by negroes on Front street. Here he seemed to disappear, but late at night upon a second search it was found where he had run through a room and jumped from a window. There the same elevtn-inch track was evident.
 Ode negro was taken before Mrs. tClark, but she stated that it would be impossible for her to identify the fend. Such out rages are a menace to the safety of our homes and to the peace of the section. The worthy ne- gr0es owe it to themselves to as- sist in the capture of such brutes.
 There are too many idlers and vagrants in this town; this is not Bne mans idea, but the concen- sus of opinion, which you hear wherever you go. Such class of people, white or black, are worth nothing to a community and they should feel the hand of the law.

PIERCE LOSES CONTROL
 OF WESTERN INTERESTS

Business men and a large per- centage of the public in Arkan- sas will be interested in the re- port which comes from St. Louis that H. Clay Pierce has lost con- trol of the Waters-Pierce Oil Company, a branch of the Stand ard Oil Company in the south and west.
 MT. Pierce has had control of the western interests of this con- pany for many years. The Wat ers-Pierce company was the agent and western branch of the Stand ard Oil Company in the south and west.
 Many financial battles have been fought for the control of these interests, but the million aire St. Louisan always managed to hold a majority of the stock in the Waters-Pierce branch, there by running the oil business of the west and south at will.
 One report declares that Pierce has been losing heavily in stocks lately, and that in his skirmishes in the New York stock exchange he received a squeezing. "

THREE BOYS LEAD
 IN BABY CONTEST.
James Edward Wilmans Now Sets Pace in Sweet and Pretty Baby Race.

Ernest Theodore Philips. 128 Edwin Johnson ....-............. lO3 Dorothy Stephens S5 Wm. Wallace Dutton. . 30 Jeanette Henry ry...................... p
 Another leap to the front, sig nals the third days voting in the baby contest, and little James Edward Wilmans now occupies first place at the head of the col umn, and the leader of yester- day drops back into second place. Edwin Johnson, in bound, jumps into third place.
 The candidates not yet nomi- mated should be given a start, that the people may know be- tween whom the contest lies as prettiest and sweetest baby. The vote today shows the boys to be good runners, and if a young Miss wins the prize it will not be by courtesy of her rivals.
 Here is the proposition and the rules governing the contest:
 There is a handsome S25. .00 solid gold locket with diamond setting and solid gold chain, on display at the Palace Jewelry store, to be given away Decem- Der 24th, 1904, to the baby boy or girl under two years of age, who wins the highest number of votes as the prettiest and sweet est baby. Now the baby that is not pretty is surely sweet, and if the wee tot be a little cross at times, beauty must offset this badness. Fond parents at least are expected to think their ba- bies are both sweet and beauti- full, and so they do. But to set tie once for all the claims of the under two, and put at rest this rivalry of mothers and fathers, the Independent has inaugurated a contest that is to be determined by that cherished right, popular ballot, and in accordance with the following rules:
 BABY PRIZE CONTEST RULES.
 First-No baby that has reach ed the age of two years Nov. 1, 1904, is eligible to this contest, nor shall any employe or party connected with this paper be eli gible to vote.
 Second-Every issue of the Daily and Weekly Independent from November 1 to December "A, will contain a ballot entitling the holder to one vote in this contest. For every dollars worth of job, work, advertising and subscription paid for between these dates coupon good for ten votes will be issued, but no cou- pons will be issued for sums less than $1.00. Coupons will not be sold, and will only be issued for job, ad and subscription busi- ness, but extra copies of the h. dependent at 2 cents per copy, each containing one ballot, will be sold at this office.
 Third-All votes must be sent to this office and will be de- posted in a lock box, to be opened at 8 o'clock each publication day and counted. The daily issue of that afternoon will contain the total of the several candidates and the public will thus be kept informed of the voting each day. Fourth-A committee of three good business men will be select ed to canvass the ballots the morning of Dec. A and announce the winner. All ballots must be deposited at this office by II a. m., Dec. "A, 1904.
 Read the rules carefully.
