WAS A "TRUSTY,"
But Robert Greer, il Seems, Was
Not Trustworthy.

Robert Greer, colored, a "trusty"
at the county Jail, was trusted too
often and much and is now confined
inside the walls of the Jail pending
the action of the court on more
serious charge than petty larceny.
Greer was Jailed several months
ago for petty thievery. He was
made a trusty, having only a few
more days to serve, and sent out on
errands by Jailer Eaker. Often he
would be sent to the Biederman
Grocery company to secure provis-
ions and other things needed by
Jailer Eaker. and always brought
back everything ordered.
Greer, it is now alleged, went to
the grocery company several days
ago and bought four sacks of flour
and had them charged to Jailer
Eaker. He had done this before,
but always brought the -four to the
Jail.
Yesterday it developed that Greer
had gotten flour not ordered and
upon investigation it was found he
had sold it for a dollar or two to a
negro named Banks. Jailer Eaker
then locked him up and subsequent
ly It was learned that he had been
working another ICON" game on the
charity club. He had secured two
orders for 81 each, saying he wanted
to get groceries for his sick sister,
who resides on Washington street.
The woman's house was visited yes
terday by Mr.; ]. r. Gray, the charity
club investigator, and the sister
claimed Greer had not brought her
anything.
Jailer Eaker is further investigat-
ing to ascertain what else the pris-
oner did, and the case will be placed
in the hands of the authorities for
trial at an early date. Greer had
only ten days more to serve on his
sentence.

College Men In the Gold Fields of Nevada.

College Men In the Gold Fields Of Nevada.
College men fairly swarm In the gold
camps. and many OF them hocked in as
soldiers of fortune.
Some fool threw a football into the
middle OF the main street OF Goldfield one
day." said a prospector. Then he gave
a college yell. and twenty men piled out
of the stores and hotels and saloons so
fast you couldn't count EN- They lined
up without anybody's giving the word
and played a game right on the jump
They clean wore that football out in
no time"
While the college-bred man may find
only disappointment and hardship in such
stormy tide OF life as this, he quits it.,
at any rate, with a new respect for
mankind. a bed rock democracy of view
point and a stock of elemental courage
and self-reliance. For there is to be
said of the men of the desert and noun
tains, that they know how to take defeat
with a smile for the future and a firmer
set of the jaw for the present. While
there are prodigal and foolish deeds
among the few who find bewildering
wealth in the earth, a finer wealth of
manhood is developed in the hearts of
the many who fail TO find that which they
seek.-[Ralph ID. Paine in THE Builders, I"
in the Outing Magazine for June.
