The agricultural and grazing

The owners of the Nevada Cen

wealthy millionaires of this coun-
try, and if they consult their own
interests, they will simply extend
their line into the renowned gold

An Inhuman Beast
A Terrible Crime Committed
by a Young Mexican in
Esmeralda County.

A bestial crime is reported to
have been committed at Schurz, 30
miles north of Hawthorne, last
Wednesday. One Hilda Osuna, is
charged with violating the person
Of a l4-year old girl named Harry
Ayerill. The child is a daughter
of Osuna's wife by a former hus-
band. In her statement the VIC
tim alleges that during the absence
of her mother in San Francisco
Osuna made several attempts to
ruin her. That on the 14th in
slant he assaulted her, tied her
wrists together and succeeded in
his inhuman assault.
Word was sent to Hawthorne
and Deputy Sheriff Jones went to
Schurz and placed Osuna under
arrest.
The accused man is California
Mexican, young, of good appear
ance and education. The girl is
also unusually bright for her age,
while her mother is said to have
been a stenographer some years
ago in the State Land Office at
Carson. Osuna was employed by
the railroad company at Schurz.
AS the last Legislature made an
assault Of this kind punishable by
death under certain conditions,
this case will be watched with
much interest.-Hawthorne Bulle-

1t will be seen from the above
article which, if it can be relied
upon as being authentic, that j. q
Phelps Stokes is seriously think
ing of extending his road from this
point to the southern Nevada gold
fields.
Having been a resident of Lam
der county for over twenty years,
the editor has, during that time,
seen many changes take place, and
the change that we ART going to
spaak of If it should materialize,
will mean much to all of us.
If the Nevaca Central Railroad
should be extended, it would mean
new era for this county. How
many have stopped to think what
benefits would be derivedY fyou
have not studied the matter over,
you should pause and think. We
can say that the resources which
would be derived from the road
being extended farther south would
be far beyond the expectations OF
the most sanguine.
We have been told by those we'll
informed on the subject that it the
road is extended it would traverse
a rich mineralized country, touch
ing Berlin, where the rich mines
of the Nevada Company are locat-
ed and those of the Free Gold
Milling & Mining Company; also
Grantsville, Lodi, Downeyville,
Ellsworth and Cloverdale. AT the
lati er place there is great deal OF
work being done, and the property
owned by an Ogden company is
fast coming to the front and will
at NJ distant date become a great
bullion producer. With the ex-
ception of Berlin and Cloverdale
no work is now going on in the
other small camps which was at
one time great producers OF the
yellow and white metal. We pre-
sumo that on account of these old
camps lying idle to-day is MOSTLY
due from being cramped from want
of rail transportation for fuel and
supplies.
All of these old camps mention.
ed above would be in close touch
with the railroad and if the road is
extended it may be the means ol
these once prosperous mining

J. G. Phelps Stokes, who is one
of the prominent business men OF
New York and who is credited with
being the possessor of several mil
lions, has come to the belief that
the Nevada Central Railroad, of
which he is the president, may be
made into paying property.
The Nevada Central runs from
Battle Mountain on the line of the
Central Pacific to Austin. Austin
was once a rich mining town, but
of late years it has declined and
there is little travel there. Trains
are run three times a week each
way, and the Nevada Central is in
the same position as the Carson &
Colorado was when owned by d. o.
Mills.
Mr.. Stokes has, it is said, deter
mined to extend the road and will
build into Tonopah. The distance
is 100 miles, and it is reported that
he has been in comm unication with
certain parties in this city as to
the advisability of having the ex-
tension built as soon as possible.
The road will not run from the
town of Austin, but will start from
a place which is called Austin
junction. When the line was frs
built the intention was to continue
il still farther south, but nothing
was ever done. Now that the Ton
opah religion has grown SO rich
Mr.. Stokes thinks it would prove
paying If he built into Tonopah.-
