EATEN BY CY0TES
Gruesome Find in Silver Peak
Country

Scattered over an area of 100 yards, the
bones and fragmentary remains of hui
man body were found today this side of
Red mountain in the Silver Peak coun-
try, says the Tonopah Sun. The finders
were George w. Holmes and W. b. Col
burn. They are convinced that the body
had been eaten torn and scattered by
coyotes.
They found the bones of one leg in a
leg of the trousers and after a little
search discovered the coat enclosing some
other bones quite a distance away. In
the pocket was a piece of paper which
proved to be a time check made payable
to III. Goodshaw, and signed by T. l..
Oddie. Another name was on the paper,
but 1t could not be made out Under a
check was dated December 81, 1903
Holmes and Colburn hurried to town,
arriving about midnight. They were met
by Night Watchman Jack Hartigan to
whom they showed the time check and
gave particulars of the gruesome discov-
cry.
While not certain. Hartigan thinks
that about year ago. according to his
best recollections, he received a letter
from California woman named Good
shaw, in which she asked for the where
abouts of her son.
As the time check is dated in the win
ter, 1t is reasonable to suppose that the
man died in that season, about a year
ago. That he was killed by coyotes is
not thought of. when one takes into con-
sideration the nature of the animals 1t
is more likely that the unfortunate man
died of exposure, hunger and thirst.

DARK HORSE
An Examiner Correspondent has
a Horrid Dream

The San Francisco Examiner, with it's
patch regarding the United States Sen
atorship from Nevada. The Reno cor
respondent of that sensational publica-
ton had a wierd dread about some dark
horse entering the race, and names
Hon. L. 3. Hickey as the man with
seven Nixon votes in his pantaloon
pockets. The wish to rob Mr.. Nixon of
his justly earned majority is probably
father to the thought. In the mean time
the Republicans have caucussed and Nix
on received every one of the 81 Repup-
Hcan votes. The Examiner correspond
ent should guess again, then go hide
his diminished head under dry goods
box. The Examiners Reno wire reads
as follows:
Reno, New, Janu. 15.-George s. Nixon.
reputed to be practically elected as Ne
Senate by the Republican press of the
State. has a fight on his hands. The
fact was not brought out until today,
when a dark horse" T. B. Hickey, was
thrown into the fight. He is one of the
best-known and most influential Repub-
licans in the State, and his name has
thrown confusion into the Republican
ranks. Nixon has made claims to thirty
one votes to twenty-seven for Governor
John Sparks, the Democratic candidate.
These figures gave him a majority of
four votes out of the fifty-eight on joint
ballot. Now comes Rickey's friends with
claim of seven votes and the power
of either causing a deadlock or electing
their man.
Tonight the Republicans are attempting
to caucus at Carson. They claim no dis
sensions In their ranks, though the fact
that their slate is not yet announced
shows the fight that is on.
Hickey is one of the richest land and
cattle owners in the west. Heretofore his
name has not been mentioned, and its
announcement at the eleventh hour
comes as a surprise to every one but
those who have watched events.
