and which caused so much comment,
have been stopped and a friendly settle
ment taken place.
The explanation has also been made
that the existing differences were more
imagined than real and that under the
press Of business cares these slight diff.
ferences magni6ed until an open rup-
ture took place.
Both Mr.. Oddie and his vito deeply
regret the publicity given their matri-
monial affairs, but AS matters are now
adjusted, there should be no public mis-
understandings in the future.
Both husband and wife are nov at
their home in Tonopah, where Mr.. Cd
dies numerous mining interests are sit

Nevadan, and says this State is good
enough for him. He says Nevada to-
day is prosperous, Nevada today is in
creasing in population. Nevada's mines
are just beginning a new yield. No
place in the west to-day really affords a
grander opportunity for investment. To
fact, lie says, reports from all sections of
Nevada are very encouraging fer a most
prosperous future.

Let's Hold Conventions.

The political pot has begun to sizzle a
little; both of the State Conventions
have been called, and in less than an
other month two tickets will be placed
in the field for the people to vote for
next November-the Democratic and
Republican. 1t is a fact that there will
be but two parties in the field this year.
For some years past no conventions
have been held in this county, and the
race for Office has been a free for. all
scramble, with the choice going to the
fellow who could make half the people
believe he was a Republican and the
other half that he was a Democrat.
This kind of politics has been carried on
10 long that the people hardly know in
whom to place confidence for needed re.
forms Promises are considered by can
didates but bait to catch votes, and no
officer elected ever thinks of keeping
half the promises he makes.
The only remedy we can see for this
couuitioh u ihlhsS 10 W oiBdni1o INC
parties, hold conventions and place
tickets in the hsli. The two parties
can tell in no other way whether they
are getting the men they want into Office.
There is no pledge put upon az inde
pendent candidate, while a party always
has n platform which its candidates are,
more or less, bound to respect. BY all
neans, let both parties hold conventions
when the time comes and it is bound TO
improve conditions TO all concerned.

Friday afternoon a young man of good
appearance arrived at Golconda on No. 6
and fastened to the livery stable of l..
Dutertre. He stated that he wanted
the best team 10 the barn, as well as
a driver; thai he vas to be married that
evening to a young lady who resided
some distance away. and that his time
was limited.
He further stated that he was DESTROYS
OF getting a good housekeeper, and call
ed upon several women in Golconda, but
could not induce any Of them to accom-
pany him.
They bad driven but a few miles when
the driver nearly fell 10 a dead faint,
caused by a piece of cold steel pressed
against the side of his head.
His passenger had pulled out a gun,
and placing it in close proximity to his
face, ordered him to "rein up" The
order was quickly complied with, and
upon being further ordered to 'gct out"
he lost no time in doing 30.
Without further ado the man drove
away, leaving his driver standing by the
roadside.
At Prisons, about six miles from Col
conda, the team was exchanged for a
saddle horse, which he rode to Glover
valley, and from there to Battle Noun
tain he walked.
The driver, when he had fully recov-
cred from the shock. fastened back to
Golconda, where he related his expert
ence. Officers were soon in pursuit, but
failed to overtake the man.
A description was sent out 10 every
direction, and he was captured at Battle
Mountain. 1t is the general opinion
that the man is crazy. His actions
would certainly indicate such a theory.

Human telegraphed to Constable Nc

took his man back to that place Sunday
night. After he had been arrested he
became very much excited and nervous
and continued SO all through the day.
1t is thought by many that he must be
slightly deranged as he would act queer
at times. He was a man neatly dressed
and presented a good .EED.
