Towns Under Wate..

Last Saturday as the result OF
a cloudburst sduring that after
toon, the towns of Douglass and
Silver Star, near Sodaville, New,
are reported to have been swept
away. The news was telephoned
from the scene of the disaster to
Agent Richards at Sodaville
containing the report that a
cloudburst food in waves of four
or five deep swept away houses
and that great property damage
was wrought. The schoolhouse
and four dwellings are known to
have been swept away.
Ten minutes after the first
news was received at Sodaville,
the wire went down and it could
not be learned how many lives
were lost. There was great ex-
citement at Sodaville, as the pee
pie had been warned to watch
for bodies. The volume of water
Increased at that place.

A Nevada Sparkling.

A resident of Oroville, Cali
fornil, tells of a curious incident
he once witnessed in Carson
City, Nevada. Many immigrants
were coming into the State and
several camps were made in the
vicinity of Carson. A large num-
ber OF visitors had congregated
about the camps one day, talk
ing with the different ones who
had just crossed the plains. The
center of one group was a hand
some. well.made girl OF nineteen
or twenty, who was cooking sup
per. On a bed Of Goals was
large coffee pot in which coffee
for'her party was being made.
Suddenly the Goals beneath the
coffee pot gave away and down
it came, spilling the beverage.
The girl became angered, and
giving the coffee pot q kick,
turned to some half dozen or
more men who were standing by
and said: II am tired ofthis life.

want to quit this way Of living. y
Most of the men supposed she
was joking. but one who was
some years older than the other,
sid: If you are in earnest ]
will be the man" Certainly
am in earnest was the reply OF
the girl. Bring on the parson
and I will convince YOU. A
minister was soon found, and the
couple were married at once.
The groom proved to be one ot
the wealthiest miners in that
part of the State, and shortly
afterward built his wife resi-

SAM PLATr FOR CONGRESS.
Will Be a Candidate Before the Re.
publican Convention.

The Carson News is authority
for the announcement that Hon.
Samuel Platt, who served this conn.
ty in the State Legislature, was the
Republican party's nominee for
Attorney General at the last elec.
tiou, and who has stumped the
State several times in the interests
of the Republican ticket, will be a
candidate before the Republican
convention at Winnemueca for the
nomination of Member Of Congress.
The announcement will not coma
entirely as surprise because Mr..
Platt's candidacy is logical, and has
been Urged upon him by prominent
Republicans for many months. Mr.
Platt is one Of the younger members
OF the party, whose loyalty and ser
vice, however, has not been meas.
ured by years only. He is a prom
iuent Republican and has served his
party effective and well. His record
is clean and he was one of the best
representatives Ormsby county ever
had in the Assembly and his legis-
lative record was a source Of much
qualification to his friends ani con-
stituents.
Two years ago he was the unan.
irnous choice of the Republican
State Convention for Attorney Gen
eral, and despite the discourage
meuts which faced the party can
didates at that time, he made one
Of the most vigorous campaigns
ever made in Nevada. He visited
all points and his speeches made
many votes.
Mr.. Platt is native Nevadan,
successful practicing attorney, a
man of euviable education, and
known integrity and general ability
He would represent the State Of Ne
vada in Congress intelligentiy aud
honestly and enthusiastically. He
enjoys the respect and esteem of all
Carson City, where he has spent
most of the years Of his life, and
the people Of Nevada could find no
more loyal representative than Mr..
Platt. His efforts on behalf Of the
party certainly will entitle him to
earnest consideration at the hands
Of the Republican State Conven.
ton.
If uou'inated-there appears to be
no opposition-Mr. Platt will be
Nevada's S Congressman.

REPORTED VERY LOW.
Dr.. E. |. Wallace Taken to San
Francisco.

Last Thursday morning DR.. E.
L. Wallace was taken with a Sc
we're hemmorrhage of the lungs, and
preparations were at once. m,da to
remove him to San Francisco, in
the hopes that proper medical
treatment wonld avail him much.
On arriving at Eureka on Saturday
morning he suffered another attack
of the same trouble, and for a time
it was doubtful if he would live long
enough to reach San Francisco
alive.
DR.. Wallace has been with us but
a short time, coming here from Sac
ramento in hopes that the high al
titude of this section would benef,
him. AS a practicing physician he
was universally liked by all, but
the change he made for health S
sake seemed to have been for the
worse, as previous to last Thurs
day he had been taken with hem.
mortgages on several occasions.
The doctor had charge of DR.. Rich
ardson's practice during the latter S
present visit in the East, and ow-
ing to the departure Of Di. Wallace
our town is without a practicing
physician. The last report heard
from below states that DR.. Wallace
was examined by some of the prom
inent physicians who said he would
te we'll again in a few days and
that he would return to Ely.

JuSG dS L0o sun sank O0nlQ0
The western hills, on Monday
evening, August 1st, the soul of
P. G. Weber passed to the keep
ing of his maker. With hardly
time to greet those who were
near and dear to him, he was
stricken down shortly after his
arrival in Ely from his trip to
the East, and sinking into uu
consciousness he entered that
dark bourne from whence no
traveller returns.
His death came as a shock to
those VINO knew him best, and
with who II he had faithfully
worked to upbuild this section
of our State. Not one in our
little town but feels that its loss
is deeply felt. Not one but who
anows that his work was for all,
for the advancement Of our ser.
lion. and now that his life $ work
is ended, let naught but his good
endeavors stand forward in the
light. Pass kind words to the
afflicted ones left behind, and
hope with them that they will
meet their departed one in the
shadows that lie beyond.
Whatever lies beyond those
shadows, those of us who cling
with love and faith to Jesus of
Galllee, and those of US, if any
such there be, who tearfully
falter in faith and who think of
death as a kind kissing shut of
weary eyes-a sleep and for.
getting-must feel our friend
secure. He prayeth well who
serves. To US, take him for all
in all, now that his life has
passed. it seems like the ceas-
ing of exquisite music. !" Heaven
will be kind to him.
And now, departed friend. for
all who love you, we say Good
bye-good bye! God oh, God
be good to Pete Weber"
P. G. Weber was born in
Brooklyn, N. Y, in 1914, where
his boyhood days were spent,
and at the time of his death was
in his Goth year. He came to
this State in 1872, going to Vir.
ginia City, where he was in
business with his uncle, John
Wagner. A few years later he
moved to Cherry Creek. in this
county, and in 1884, in company
with his brother John, he en-
gagged in business at Taylor. He
moved to Ely in 1887, which
place has been his home since
that date, and where he has been
engaged in mining operations on
a large scale.
The deceased was q prominent
man in political affairs. being a
Democrat of the ld.school type.
He represented Nevada in the
Democratic National Conventions
OF 1892, 1896, 1900 and 1904, and
had for years been member of
the Democratic State Central
Committee, and was recognized
throughout the Eastern part of
this State as a diplomat in politi-
cal affairs.
Two sisters, Mrs. AL. O'Brien
of Carson, New, Mrs. L. Boyson
of Oakland, Cal, and one broth
er, John Weber, of this place,
survive, together with Mrs.
John Weber and children.
The funeral services were held
at the residence of Mr.. and Mrs.
John Weber at 2 p. m. yesterday
afternoon, the Rev. Mr.. Plummer
