VERY EXCITING
Virginia City Startled by Ladies
in Rockaway"

Five ladies in a rockaway created a
commotion on North G street Wednesday
afternoon, says the Virginia Enterprise
AS they were passing by Jack Godfrey's
stable they whipped up their horses and
one of them pulled out pistol and fired
five shots into the air. A man carrying
a wheel into a blacksmith shop dropped
it and got out of what he thought was a
shooting scrape, while a well-known bar
tender who was in the shop dropped be-
hind an anvil. A man who was at the
corner of Sutton avenue started to run
and butted into a fat man and knocked
his wind out. The ladies piled the lash
and soon disappeared over the First
Ward hill. At last accounts they were
making record time for Reno, with Un-
dertaker Kuhn in close pursuit.
One of the party had no doubt been
reading about the wild and wooly west
and thought it would be a good idea to
shoot up" the town.

HAWTHORNE LEFT
Off the Main Line of the Carson
and Colorado

Unless the Southern Pacific unexpect-

Akeft off the main line of the arson and
Colorado.
Several months ago it was announced
that the engineers in making their speci-
fications for the reconstruction of the C.
and c.. had eliminated the heavy curve
to the westward around the lower end of
Walker lake, by means of which the road
reaches Hawthorne, in its stead, had laid
out straight line to the south. saving
several miles in distance and almost an
hour in time, as the grade into Haw-
thorne is one of the heaviest and most
difficult on the entire line of the c. & c.
1t is possible that the cd track into
Hawthorne viii be maintained and that
a swing train pulled by a switch engine
will be run into the place in order to
take care of the traffic of the little place,
but through trains will pass it by.
