to the pavement and seriously injured
by a south bound car at Third and Madi-

faiz Hotel accompanied by his wife and
two daughters, to spend an evening at

He was carried to a near by drug store
where he was cared for by DR.. Hubbard,

Whether the injuries will prove fatal is
not known, but it is thought that he is
in no immediate danger.

the latter was awaiting his trial in
Lincoln county in July. Mr..
Green was here for a number of
mouths and the bill for his keep
amounted to 1925. This the
Lincoln county authorities cut down
to $63.7 and Sheriff Burnett says
he does not propose to accept it.
The statute makes plain what is to
be charged in such cases and $5
per week is allowed for board and
care where there is but one prisoner
as in certain ways it is as much
trouble to look after one person as
after number. Sheriff Burnett
declares that if the whole sum is
lot forthcoming he will bring suit
against Lincoln county.

Work 90 the Cutoff.

The Churchill Standard says work
on the Hazen-Ft. Churchill cutoff of
the G. & G. road is progressing as
rapidly az 100 men and 600 head of
stock can do the work. The Utah
Construction Company has the con-
tract for the entire 28 miles, and the
monthly payroll of this company
now amounts to $4,000. More men
are being put to work as fast as
they can be obtained.
The deepest cut on the new road is
40 feet deep by 600 feet in length,
while there are several others of
smaller dimensions. There are also
a number of fills, the largest being
300 feet long and a. feet deep.
Grading for the terminal yards at
Hazen has also been commenced just
west of the present depot site. which
is ample evidence that the Higman
lands have ceased to be a factor in
the company's plans.
1t is announced that by July Ist,
when the grading work must be
finished, rails and ties for the entire
route will be on the ground and con-
struction work will be rushed.
1t is said that August Ist will see
rolling stock operating over the new
cutoff, saving haul OF no miles on
Tonopah traffic.

In addition to the silver-lead vein, an
exceptionally rich gold ledge was
recently discovered, less than half a
mile from the mill and bids fair to
equal anything found in Goldfield.
Steam power is used, and the deep
snow prevents the hauling of ore
during the winter months; but elect

ate all present difficulties and admit
of as cheap mining and milling as

Site Selected for Experiment Station.

The members of the Commission
appointed by Governor Sparks to
make arrangements for the location
in southern Nevada of an Agricul-
tural and horticultural Experiment
Station have returned to their
homes, having completed their field
work. The Commission consisted
of H. B. Maxon and Prof. Gordon H.
True, of Reno, and Phillip Triplett,
of Wells, and it is understood that
they have selected the valley of the
Muddy River, in Lincoln county as
the site for the station. Southern
Lincoln and Nye counties are semi
tropical in climate and both are
splendidly adapted to the growth of
citrus fruits. With the Clark road
traversing the section they are less
than one day distant from Los An
geles and Salt Lake, where the pro-
ducts of their valleys will be shipped.
The station will open next Summer
and it is believed that Prof. G. H.
True and P. B. Kennedy, of the
Government Station, in Reno, will
be placed in charge.-Silver State.
