Poor Rebecca Nourse remained a prisoner in
the Salem Jail. with others accused of witch
craft. until April IL. when she and her unfort-

trial. The jury brought in a verdict of not
guilty. but the witchcraft deluson was at fever
heat at that time and a violent protest
made against the verdict of the jury. The mob
in and out of the courtroom became so violent
and made such threats that the jury withdrew
and soon returned with verdict of guilty.
Rebecca Nourse was then taken back to JAIL
and on July following she led in chains
down the aisle of the First Church of Salem. and
was solemnly communicated from the Church
of which she had been faithful member. On
July 19 she led out to GallowS Hill, in
Salem, and hanged witch, amid the hootings
and execrations of the crowd that had assembled
to witness the aged and infirm woman die for
crimes it was impossible that she any one
else could have committed.

THE COMMISSIONERS
County Fathers Transact Considerable
Important Business.

The County Commissioners met in
regular session last Monday and in the
absence of President Locke, w. I.
Cuddy was chosen chairman.
The reports of the auditor and treas
urer, for the month of April, were read
and approved. Reese B. Roger made a
satisfactory affidavit for a stationary
engineers license and he was granted
one.
The board accepted the bid of the
Herring-Hall-Marvi Safe company, for
an automatic time-lock, No. As safe,
according to the plans advertised in the
BONANZA, for the treasurer's office.
The bid was S1,400, of which $500 is to
be paid upon the delivery of the safe
and 500 in 60 days thereafter.
The clerk was directed to publish, in
the ToNoPAH BONANZA, for two weeks,
a notice directing that all claims against
Nye county must be filed with the
clerk of the board, on or before the
first Monday, of each month, or they
will be laid over until the next meeting
of the board. This rule is to be strictly
enforced hereafter.
The report of the expert Louis ST.
monson, in the matter of the accounts
of the late Sheriff Thos. Logan, was ac-
cepted. There being a deficiencyin the
accounts, to the amount of SO, 1876. 60, it
was ordered by the board that the dis
trict attorney proceed against the bonds
men and take all steps necessary to
protect the county against loss.
The bid of Patrick Farrell of 50, 300
for a new Jail building, for Manhattan,
was accepted. While the bid was not
the lowest, by $140, the difference was
more than made up by Mr.. Farrell
making the county a present of a lot as
a site for the Jail. The structure is to
be completed within 25 days.
The Round Mountain township was
established and Charles Wallace was
appointed Justice of the Peace, with R.
G. Reed Is constable. The bond of
each was fixed at So, 900.
One hundred additional names of nom
exempt jurors for the balance of the
year, were drawn.
Justice of the Peace Donnelly of
Rhyolite was authorized to build a house
of detention, in some suitable location,
in his township, at a cost not to exceed
$500.
Sheriff Mcmahon was allowed two
extra deputies, one for Manhattan and
one at Rhyolite, at a salary of $3.50 each.
Mrs. Kelley was chosen matron of
the new county hospital, at a salary OF
SIS a month, with a male helper at SIC
per month. Board adjourned to June4

The need Of the United States Geo
logical Survey for a new fire-proof
building in Washington, D. c., is most
pressing. Government property and
records valued at approximately Sc, OO0,-
600 are in constant danger of loss by
fire at the present time through the
fact that the old wooden building in
which they are kept contains over 100,
900 square feet of vanished and i'm
hammable partitions along which fire
could spread with great rapidity. The
records are of particular value to min
ing men and especially to the mining
men of Nevada. A bill for a building
to cost 81, 200, 900 has been introduced
in both houses of congress and should
pass.

Patrick Wins.

Attorney F. A. Stevens, who is asso-
ciated with Key Pittman, received word
from Carson Monday that Judge Haw-
ley had rendered a decision in favor of
the defendant in the case of Jones VS..
Patrick. This is the case in which
Jones claimed half of Patrick's one-
eighth interest in the Combination mine
at Goldfeld. Patrick secured an option
on the then undeveloped ground in 1903
and told Jones that if he would secure
a purchaser he would divide the profit
of the sale with him. Jones failed to
secure a customer, but Patrick did a
few minutes before the option expired
and the sale was contaminated. His
profit was a one-eighth interest in the
stock Of the company that the pur-
chasers were to organize and consider
able cash. Jones her stepped in and
claimed half of the profit made by
Patrick and upon the latter refusing
to divide, suit was brought with the re-
suit above stated. Key Pittman repre-
scented the winning side while the plain
tif's case was handled by Haven &
Haven of San Francisco.
