BEATTY'S DAY
Many Visitors Participate in
Celebration

A dozen coaches laden with enthusi-
astic excursionists from Salt Lake, Los
Angeles and other points pulled out of
the Salt Lake depot at Las Vegas about
ii 80 Monday morning for Beatty, the
present terminal of the new l.. V. & T.

The following committee came down

sionists and escort them to the mining
center:
W. F. Mitchell, J. Levy, C.. +. Sex
ton, s. McEachen, Beatty: n. NJ. Sim
mons, f. r. Clemens, P. II. Winston,
Rhyolite; r. Atkinson, Johnnie.
The trains from Los Angeles and Salt
Lake arrived during the forenoon, and
while the Beatty flyer was being made
up the visitors put in the time seeing
Las Vegas. A Los Angeles band PLAYED
several selections at the depot, and the
futtering ribbons of the various dele
cations and townsite boomers gave a
genuine gala appearance to the scene.
The excursionists were given nearly
two days in the mining district, re-
turning by way of Las Vegas Wednes-
day evening the worse for wear
and certain desert refreshments.
Among the prominent railroad Off
cials who participated in the celebration
were J. Ross Clark, c. o. Whittemore

Las Vegas ranch were placed on the ex-
cursion train by w. f. Hawkins.

rived in Las Vegas Sunday evening to
wait for the excursionists.

Horse on Kuhn

Before leaving for the East, last
Spring, Mr.. n. A. Kuhn, who is a
prudent man, rounded up certain live
stock and put it in a pasture for safe
keeping. About that time Clayson &
Griffith missed a horse belonging to the
firm, and from information subsequent
ly obtained decided it had been stolen.
Recently Mr.. Kuhn brought forth his
stock for use, when it soon developed
that he had pastured the Clayson &
Griffith horse.
The animals were similar in appear
ance and Mr.. Kuhn's- horse is probably
the one attached to the rope that some
one carried out of this fair desert valley
into parts unknown.

An Orator

Hon. Geo. A. Bartlett, Democratic
nominee for Congress, is most i'm
pressive talker. Words, words with
meaning, issue from his clean shaven
mouth in volumes, and seldom does he
complete a sentence without hitting the
nail at least one clean rap, fairly and
squarely.
Mr.. Bartlett is not a large man in
stature, but his voice carries well and
his enunciation is both clear and dis
tinct. He is the proper man to repre-
sent us.-Beatiy Miner.
