lowed the rule as usual on the night
of his escape, his clothes being found
in the corridor showing that he had
disrobed as usual. DR.. Gibson infers
from this that Ginnis had assistance
superintendent thinks that Ginnis and
/ Freeman remained in hiung all of
Friday night. and being fully equip
ped by friends with clothing and
money, really began to put distance
4 between them and the asylum beg
inning with last night.
! DR. Gibson says there is no doubt
! that Freeman was helped to escape
+ by one OF the employees, or some
other person inside the institution.
He was heard to go out through and
close one of the main doors which
must have been unlocked for him.
The board of directors for the state
institution for mental diseases has

WINTERS MINE is TO BE OF.
FERED TO c. M. SCHWAB

GARDNERNILLE, Jan. "a. Jen-
sen. a Gardneryille banker. has OBJ
tanned an option on the Winters mine
and has gone to New York where he
will make an effort to dispose of the
property to Chas. M. Schwab.
The Winters mine is one Of the
best known mining properties in the
Pinenut mining district and is owned
at present by number of Carson
valley people. 1t was a good pro-
ducer a score OF years ago, but its
title having become involved in liti-
cation no work was done on the
mine until about four years ago, when
it was purchased by the lessen Bros.
Since then it has yieIded a fair m
terest on the money invested. Should
Mr.. Jensen be successful in selling
the mine to Schwab it will undoubt-
edly be developed on large scale,
| and this country and the surrounding
! country will profit materially there

Since Judge Murphy's announce

There is little doubt that Judge
Masaeys s friends look for support

owned by Ramsey Clark. another
claim owner, struck a big fedge on
his claim mat is wide and deep, and
gees 26l to the ton.
Every man in the camp is busy.
No labor is to be had there now, and
the claim owners have entered into
al agreement as to the division OF
work that must be done Immediately,
each man confning his own to that
required by law.
The district is located in the noun
tains west Of Stockton Flat on the
Fallon road below Dayton, and about
l. miles from the old Buckland sta
ton.
1t Is about midway between the
Carson and Truckee rivers anu water

Of ore in the camp that will pro-
duce if properly opened up. Like

CARSON MUST
WAKE UP
QUICKLY
TONOPAH WANTS POLITICAL
CONVENTIONS THAT BELONG
HERE THIS YEAR

Political matters are once more.
coming to the front in interest. and
the first show Of activity VIII be at
The session of the republican state
central committee, to meet in this
city June -.
1t IS almost a TOregone conclusion
that the committee VIII order the
state convention held in Carson.
Ionopah is making a strong fight to
have it held there. 1t behooves Car
son City therefore to get busy ana
cinch what should come mere without
a contest In the ordinary course Of
procedure the convention belongs %
Carson City and it is now this citys
turn IN order Of rotation.
The sentiment CT the committee is
strong for this city, as many dread
the long trip to Tonopah and back,
added to the long journey from the
eastern part Of the State. AS most
OF the delegates must pass through
Reno to reach Tonopah, and Reno
does not claim the convention this
year, it is up to Carson City to show
the Tonopah people the error of their
ways and bring two or three hun
dred politicians to Carson City for
Gay OF two, or three. 1t is money
in the pockets OF Carson City to get
busy on this, no matter what politi-
cal beliefs are, for if one convention
meets here it is possible that both
will meet here.
The matter Will be settled at the
meeting of the central committee June
% and as both the chairman and Sec
retary Of that committee are Car
son men, a little boosting Will do
business and bring some extra money
into this city.

ASSAULTED AND ROBBED.
John HUFF, Horse Trader, Relieved of
SS7 in Hard Cash by Two NeSroes.

John Huff, of Virginia, a horse trader
who has been in and about Oakland for
two weeks or more plying his trade,
with his camp located on the Oakland
HuttOnroad, met up with two strange
negroes who had been in Oakland for a
week or two apparently looking for an
opportunity to touch" someone.
The ''cOons" after making the &C
quaintance Of Huff, very considerably
undertook to show him 1.-The way to go
home, " the old man being in such con-
dition physically that he was unable to
care for himself. Taking Huff into
tow the "duskies" left town and at
point near Weber's they knocked him
down and robbed of $87 in cash and
then left for parts unknown.
As soon as Huff recovered from the
effects of the blow he had received he
returned to town and made information
against his assailants, giving the author
tiles complete description of the men,
the description of one tallying with that
of man who worked until Saturday
night at the livery stable of A. Hine-
baugh in Oakland, since which time he
has not been seen.
The men are described as follows by
Huff: One is short and heavy set; very
dark, wears light hat and dark cloth
ing; about five feet, two inches in
height. The other is slim; five feet,
nine inches in height; well dressed in
dark clothes and about thirty years old.
One Of the men is from Frostburg and
both have been traced from Oakland to
Cumberland since the assault and rob
berry was committed.
Sheriff Lee has sent out description
of the negroes to all nearby points
with instructions to arrest and hold
them or either Of them until they can
be identified by Huff.
