attribute this to the extensive forest

Reno's Catholic Church Burned.

Monday afternoon the Catholic
Church in Reno, corner of Lake and
Sixth streets, was burned to the ground.
The loss is estimated at sl2. 900. with
$4,000 insurance. The fire started in
the belfry and is of unknown origin.
1t was discovered by students at the
State University. They turned in the
alarm and were first ON the scene and
with the assistance of others saved all
the statuary and nearly everything
movable. Two church organs, a large
collection of sacred music and the
furnishings of the church were de.
stroyed. as well as three handsome
memorial windows. For several years
a larger and finer church has been con
templated and will now be fastened to
completion.

Coyotes Kill a Baby.

Coyotes robbed Louis La Frank and
wife of their only child a few days ago,
on the desert out from Los Angeles,
CAL. where La Frank was operating a
mining claim. About four weeks ago
he took his wife aud 7.months-old boy
out to keep him company. Coyotes
were plentiful in the neighborhood,
but beyond being veritable thieves were
not considered dangerous. Mrs. La
Frank left the blby lying upon the
blankets while she went over to where
her husband was working on an errand.
The claim is about 40 rods from their
tent and just out of sight around a rise
of ground. When she approached the
tent. upon her return, four coyotes
rushed out and fed to a near. by canyon.
She found her baby dead and partly
eaten by the coyotes.

Warming Note of TOnopahs Sickness.
While there is not au epidemic of ty.
phoid in Tonopah. the cases are more nu.
merous than they would be if sanitary
conditions were properly looked after.
What hospital facilities there are in
Tonopah are pretty well taxed now and
unless the authorities act promptly
there is no telling how soon the disease
may assume an epidemic form.
It is the same old situation of a few
thousand people huddling together in a
mining town, without organization
against disease, without conscientious
or competent officials. simply
trusting to luck and a pure atmosphere
t carry them through one years after
another free from death and sickness.
It's time right now to find out about
this typhoid business. The County
Board has the responsibility. 1t also has
the power to move in the matter. A
prompt investigation of existing cases
should be made. This done by q COM
petent and careful individual would de.
termine the origin Of the disease and
show the sensible method Of action to
stop its spread and saw Tonopah from
disgrace and damage.-Tonopah Sun.

HANGMAN'S DAY IN NEVADA
Four Murderers of Jack Welch Are
Swung Off at Carson Friday.

Fred Roberts, J. p. Sevener. I. s.
German and Frank Linderman, alias
williams, were hung Friday at the
State Prison in Carson. The men were
hung in pairs as the gallows will only
accommodate two men at q time.
Sevener and Linderman went TO their
death at 1850 o'clock and German and
Roberts mounted the scaffold at IL
O'Clock noon.
No further particulars Of the execu-
ton have been received in Eureka mp
to the hour of going to press.
The crime for which the men were
executed was the murder of Jack WEIGH
in Humboldt County two years ago.
Two times were the men convicted
of their crime and twice sentenced to
death, but mp to late Wednesday after
noon the condemned men were hopeful
that their sentences would be COM
muted to life Imprisonment.
The State Board of Pardons, consist
ing of Governor Sparks, Supreme
Judges Fitzgerald, Norcross aud Talbot
and Attorney General Sweeney, met in
special session Tuesday forenoon to con-
slider the cases of the condemned men.
Strong appeals were made by attorneys.
ministers and friends on behalf of the
murderers. Roberts read a lengthy plea
from Sevener, in which he said that the
others were innocent and asked that
their cases be committed and he, Sevener
punished. Two sisters Of German, who
arrived at Carson two weeks ago, were
present, but did not address the Board.
After the arguments the Board went
into executive session and at 8 o'clock
adjourned until 1880 Wednesday after.
noon.
Again the Board went over the testi.
mony of the case and listened t. plead.
ings for mercy for the men, and then
retired to executive session.
The decision was reached at $3.50 and
the fat went forth that the four men
must pay the death penalty for their
crime.
The execution Friday morning closes
one OF the most atrocious crimes COM
mitted in Nevada, and one that has
been costly to Humboldt County and
the State.

Miners Enter Protest at Washington
Against Policy of Company.

A Lovelock's dispatch of Nov. Is
saws: Mining men interested in min
eral lands along the line of the Southern
Pacific Railway Company have filed
protests against the effort Of the Com.
pany to obtain patents to about 100 Sec
tons of land on which valuable gold,
silver and anthony discoveries have
been made. They also asked that the
Government appoint a Commission to
visit Nevada and designate what are
mineral and non mineral lands to pre-
vent the Railroad Company from tax
ing over lands that are mineral bearing,
but the Land Department replied that
it has no power to appoint such a Com
mission and has given the miners 80
days in which to prepare affidavits
showing that the land contains
minerals.
Under the land grants made to the
old Central Pacific, it will be remem-
bered that 1t was given every other
section of land for O distance of 20 miles
on both sides of its tracks, except when
such lands bore deposits of minerals,
iron and coal excepted. On the lands
which the Company is now trying to
secure there are several valuable mines,
one Of them being rich in anthony.
Several years ago the Railroad Com
pany secured patents to large tracts Of
land in the Olinghouse mining district,
80 miles east Of Reno, its land agents
swearing that the land was non-min-
eral. At the time there were several
paying mines in operation. Recently
suit was brought to test the validity of
these patents.

Removing the Fences.
ANNUAL WORN ON MINES.
But Six Weeks Remain i'm Which to
Do Assessment Work.

The attention of p~rospectors and
miners is called to the necessity for COM
plying with the Federal laws relating
to assessment work on unpatented min.
ing claims. The law requires that 500
worth of work must be performed on
each claim within one year after the
first day of January succeeding the date
Of location and that 500 worth Of work
must be done ON each claim for each
succeeding year before the first day of
January until the ground is patented.
Claims which were located any time
during 1904 should have the specified
amount of work done on each one be-
fore the first day of January, 1906.
Neglect in this particular will leave the
land open for location by others than
the original locators.
