A Nan Horsewhipped.

A man getting horsewhipped at the
hands of a woman is something that is
not often witnessed in Goldfield, but
such a scene was on the program for to-
day shortly after dinner.
The principals of the drama were a
woman and two men, n of the men
refused to divulge his name, while the
other represented himself az being the
attorney Of the one who received the
flogging, and who gave his name as G.
w. Haight recently from San Francisco.
The trouble arose over the jumping of
a lot on the southeast corner of Gold
street and Broadway in the Phenix adj
dition, which is the property of the
woman, she holding a deed to the same
given her by Mr.. Phenix.
A large crowd congregated and wit
messed the affair and at the time of go
ing to press the question of who had a
right to possession was being argued.
Haight acted as counsel for a large num-
Der of men who acknowledged that they
would jump a lot on the same PROPOSE
ton if they were given an opportunity,
he giving them what was supposed to be
professional advice gratis to justify their
action.

BIG r GLE STORE.
Beers 81 Exploration Mercantile
Company Thrown Open.

After several luonils' delay, caused
bv the slow arrival. of building mater
ials, the Exploration buikiing, ut the
northwest corner Of Main aud Ramsey
streets, is ready for occupancy. The i'm
| posing structure H. the finest business
| block in Goldheld. The lower floor will
be occupied by the Exploration Mer-
camille company. The spacious store
room, which has an area of 40 by IS
feet, is filled with a most complete stock
of groceries, hardware, iron and steel
supplies, paints, oils, glass and lead and
mine supplies. In fact there is not q
more complete stock in the state. None
| but the very best lines are carried and it
| will be the purpose of the management
to maintain the stock at the very high
est standard OF excellence. Much pains
labor and expense have been expended
by the owners of the business. Messrs
Stone and Thompson, in securing the
very best the market produces. The
storeroom il the handsOmest in this
part Of the state. The front of the
| building is glazed with heavy plate
glass, giving an abundance of light to
the interior.
On the corner of Main and Ramsey,
| will be the Office of the Nevada ExplOr-
alton company, in which the two enter.
prising young men who have erected
the Exploration building, are heavily
interested. The company, as its name
indicates, will have for its object the
bonding, purchasing and operating of
mining properties. Both Mr.. Thompson
and Mr.. Stone have interested heavy
eastern capital in their project, and are
in a position to secure and handle mines
of great value.
On Ramsey street are several Offices,
all of which have been taken by ten
ants. These are considered the most
desirable rooms in Goldfield for the pur-
poses for which they are intended.
The entire second floor is divided into
Offices. They are ceiled throughout in
hard wood and finished in the natural
grain. The lighting is perfect. Instead
Of electricity, an acetyline plant has
been installed by the builders. Among
the lessees are Curtis & Ridge; DR..
Croxall; DR.. E. L. %Ingersoll; H. w.
Knickerbocker; Kinney, Robinson &
McGill; William B. Mishler; j. w.
Palmer & Co., and the automobile com
pany.
The building erected by these two
enterprising young men, who have
shown their confidence in Go.dfeld by
taking the lead and constructing so sub.
tantial a structure, is by far the hand
soonest here. 1t represents an outlay Of
more than $25, 900, and would be
credit to a community far older thar
this.

O'Rourke, will OFFER a purse of $4,000 In
his letter TO Corbett Mccoy says he has
posted 5000 with local newspaper as a
guarantee of good faith. To issue formal
challenge for a prize fight is against the
laws of New York so the Mccoy matter
does not deal with any of the details of
the proposed contest. but simply seeks cor
respondence on the subject. Mccoy says
he Is induced to enter the ring again only
because of the unsatisfactory termination
of his fight with Corbett, which he admits
left cloud on his record as a pugilist and
because he believes that he Is the better
boxer OF the two. He declares that under
no consideration will he talk of a match
