INDIANS HAVE
BEEN SENTENCED

The two Indians, Johnnie and Ivanpah.
who were recently convicted at Elko for
the murder of a crippled tramp, were
sentenced to be hung on June 16
The trial proved that the murder was
a most cold -blooded one, and that the
defendants were fully entitled to the SEM
tence they got.
1t was surmised at the time of the
conviction of the two murderers that
they would be givn long pnitantiary
terms, but would escape capital pun
ishment. The evidence. however. was SO
strong, showing that dastardly crime
had been committed, that the verdict of
the jury was conclusive and spontaneous.
When the case was brought up for
judgment death by hanging was passed
out to the two Indians
The pair passed through Winemucca
this Afternoon on their way to Carson,
where they will occupy condemned cells
in the State pententiary until they pro-
ceed to the gallows

Soon Leap to

ANGUS McKANE, noted mining

r ANGUS McKANE, a noted mining
Il engineer who has been engaged
for some time in investigating the
mineral bearing territories of Humboldt
county returned last evening from Love-
lock- Mr.. McKane is on his way to
Churchill to investigate that territory.
In speaking of the possibilities of
Humboldt county as a mineral producer,
Mr.. McKane stated that opportunities in
the mining line here were never better
ana that it is probable developments of
old properties and the discovery of new
ones would result in the turning of at
tention to this point.
He stated that the excitement at Live
Troughs would doubtless result in a gen.
eral stimulus to the mining industry in
Humboldt county
THAT ore exists in the rises of Hum
boldt there can be no question: said
Mr. McKane. "All that is needed is
little push and energy and some capital.
The mountains adjacent to this town are
more or less mineral bearing and it is
only a matter of time when Winnemucca
will be a supply point for well-to-do
mining territory.
Mr.. Mcane leaves this evening for San
francisco. where he will render his re-
pcrt to a party of capitalists. including
James ID. Phelan. who sent him up here.

district he has been looking over
