PRECIOUS STONAS FOUND
NEAR ~WINNEMUCCA
w. j. Dinwiddie Goes to Reno with
Excellent Specimens of Stones
Giving Indications of Some
Good Commercial Values

w. J. Dinwiddie arrived in Reno
yesterday from Humboldt county,
says the Reno Reveille, with a guam
tity Of opals and rock showing a ten
dency toward turquoise. Dinwiddie
claims that he has located some of the
finest opal deposits in the country, and
the specimens he displayed have al
ready resulted in several capitalists
becoming interested to such an extent
that they have arranged to send ex-
perts to the district.
D~inwiddie has been prospecting in
Humboldt county for some time. He
is associated with G. j. Bower, the
well known mining mar of Reno, as
well as others prominent in the min
ing world. The opal deposits were dis
covered several weeks ago and CON
siderable work has already been done
on the ground. In addition excellent
turquoise indications have peer found.
The formation is almost identical
with that found in the famous Span
ish turquoise mines of New mexico.

prosecute Miller, who she says il a
good worker when sober, she left for
home. Upon entering the house sht

rified. She missed a revolver and
other things that had been left in
the trunk, and again saddled her fast
horse and came to town, riding 81

CHIEF wINNEMUccA DYING

10th. The Piutes hereabouts have
learned by courier that Winnemucca
chief of all the Piutes, is lying at the
point of death neal Fort Bidwell,
where he was on a visit to Oehoho,
one of his faithful henchmen. The
sub-chiefs are respondent, some at
tributing his illness to the wichery
of his new wife. while others think
the medicine man is to blame. 1T is
quite probable that if his sickness
ends in death, his wife and the doe
tor will be made TO atone for it with
their lives. 1t is customary for the
Piutes, as well as many other tribes,
TO kill the medicine man who attends
a chief during illness which ends in
death, and they sometimes sacrifice
the unfortunate wife of a dead chief
on his grave. An instance of the lat
ter kind took place here two years
since, when an innocent squaw was
taken with the corpse of her husband

eight or ten miles above town and

Camp Bidwell four days ago, report

His young wife, whom he married
last July, ran away, but vas followed
by Winnemucca's friends and taken
back to his camp. She escaped a
second time and was caught, when
Ochoho's Indians, numbering about so
braves, held a council and decided to
kill her. They took the woman and
her year-old child, by a husband who
died some months before she married
old Winnemucea, to a rocky BLUFF
and stoned them both to death.

BUYERS SAW ANOTHER MINE
Charge is Made that a Gross Fraud
was Committed

ELY, New, Sept. &c. l.. RIckard
and Al G. Myers, two prominent Ely
mining men, have brought suit against
M. M. johnson, charging him with
having defrauded them of $4,000 IN a
mining deal involving the Manila
group of claims near Ely . They de-
clare that they will not only sue him
for the money he got from them, but
that they will prosecute him on the
charge of fraud.
1t is claimed that johnson, by false
representations, sold Richard and My
ers some claims which contained no
lodges. In order to dispose of these
claims he showed them other claims
containing large lodges and belonging
to other parties, and then gave them a
title to the other property.
