McLendon Had Been Guaranteed in
Fever District without Money.
From the Atlanta Journal
C. F. McLendon, Is years old, who
was arrested some time ago on the
complaint of the Burrows Screen Co.,
of Portland, Me-, for whom he was a
travelling salesman, on charge of
forgery, waived a preliminary hear
ing in Justice Ormond's court Tues
day, and in default of $1,000 bail was
sent to the Tower.
1t was originally charged that Nc
Tendon had forged checks or orders
to the approximate amount of $1,000
on the Burrows Screen Co. McLen-
don explained that he had been quar-
antined in the fever district, where he
was doing large business in screens,
that his mail had miscarried and that
the company, becoming alarmed, had
caused his arrest.
There was talk for a time that the
matter would be settled, but despite
this assurance McLendon stayed on in
Atlanta in custody. Subsequently the
governor of Mississippi asked that he
be held on charges of forgery preferred
there.
McLendon waived trial Tuesday on
the charge, and in default of ST., 900
bail was returned to the Tower.

CARNEGIE HAS ARRANGED FOR HIS BURIAL

ne would, and ''have anything he
wanted" McLuckie heard the mes
sage, knitted his brow for moment.
and then declared, That's damned
white of Andy" but declined the prof.
tered assistance. He had the grit to
follow and work out his own fortunes.
When the expression was reported to
Mr.. Carnegie he was SO pleased that
he ordered it should be carved on his
tombstone.
Should the order be carried out--and
if Mr.. Carnegie has determined that
1t shall be it probably will-Mr. Car
negie's epitaph will be one of the very
few, if not the only one, to contain
the most widely known of all the swear
words of the English language. And
1T will mark new departure in cpl
taphs. Generally speaking, theepitaph
is the most fulsome and false of all
records intended to be permanent.
Virtues that the 'late lamented"
never exercised are celebrated in the
legend on the grave-stone. On the
principle of saying nothing but good
of the dead, much that is untrue is said
of the dead. 1t is desirable, of course,
that only the admirable qualities of
the departed should be remembered,
and it would be inexpressably shock
ing if the weaknesses instead of the
virtues should be engraved on the
tombstone; yet it seems that there
might we'll be an unbending of the
stilted style of epitaphs, which taxes
the common sense of the readers.
Should candy persist in having the
damn" on his tombstone it would
impress all observers with. the idea,
"Well that man wasn't a mealy-
mouthed hypocrite, at all events; he
had the courage of his language.

UPINABrG BALLOON BOY WENT
Unexpectedly Took a TwO-Nile Trip
Up into the Elements.


Floyd Wallace, a 16-year-old boy
of Oneonta, N. Y, had an excellent
ride in a balloon that got away from
the Oneonta fair grounds Friday
afternoon at o'clock. The boy had
gone up in the balloon, which was be-
ing pulled down in the regular man
ner. When it was about 200 feet from
the ground the rope broke, and the
balloon and boy rapidly shot up in
the air and soon disappeared in the
the clouds, being rapidly blown to-
wards the northeast.
The balloonist said that unless the
boy opened the valve the balloon
would not come down for twenty-four
hours. The balloon rose over two
miles high before it disappeared from
view.
The boy, however, managed to get
hold of the valve rope and let out the
gas, so that he succeeded in safely
effecting landing at Summit, Scho-
haire county, thirty miles from Oneon-
ia, at 5:45 o'clock.

wealth existing in the mines of that

During the past week L. D. Folsom,
Reno capitalist and one of the own
ers of the property, has been on the
ground accompanied by W. A. Sea-
grave, a graduate of the University,
who has spent several years in South
Africa in the capacity of mining en-
gineer. His mission at the Golden
Gate was in the capacity of an ex-

chasers and of subsequent superil-
tendent of the workings of the mine.

was asked by DR.. Southworth for his
opinion and he replied as follows:

On the strength of the report the
owners are making arrangements t.
install ten stamp mill on the property

The sentiment of the owners is voiced
in the following remark which Mr.
Folsom was overheard to make in
speaking with Ed. Donovan, REGARD

RANCHERS PROTEST.
New Irrigation Ditch Drives Out Old

From points On the Truckee river

from ranchers who claim that the
great irrigation canal that is to drain
the surplus waters of the Truckee in
to the lower Carson reservoir is rob
bling them OF water-that their bitches
are empty and their crops starving
for irrigation. They sent delegation
to Reno yesterday to confer with at.

an investigation is now being made
to determine what the rights are in
the premises
Under the provisions of the ma
tional irrigation act" said Reno at
torney yesterday, the government en-
gineers are prohibited from interefer-
ing in any way with the vested rights
of land owners to the waters of the
streams that become part of any ma
tional irrigation project All along

against taking the established water
supply from private ditches but it
seems that in some instances there
is going to be suffering. What res
titution will be made l cannot say.

Whose water is shut off to the extent
that his crops are injured will be
settled to damages"
Just how many ranchers have been
affected by the closing of the dam
al Derby and the diversion of the
water down the canal has not been
learned. Complaints have come in
from the vicinity of Wadsworth and
in Churchill county
"The situation may not be as ser
iOus as the ranchers think" said one
mcn who had been looking into the at
fair.
AT present the newly-constructe1
bitches and reservoirs are not On..
empty but dry and for short time
they will consume great quantities o
water, but in a little while they Wi.
