MRS. KlRKWOOD
ENDS HER LIFE
Undyine Love for Her Deceased
Husband is Responsible for
Rash Act.

THE closing chapter of one of
/ saddest stories To be brought,
to public notice eliminated at
Bridgeport last Saturday evening
when Mrs. Elmer Kirkwood ended
her unhappy existence by taking
strychnine. Since her husbands S
death which occurred last July,
the health OF the young widow
failed rapidly, cause from grief and
worry over the loss of her husband.
Mrs. kirkwood graduated from
the Nevada University with the
class OF 1903 and two years later
accepted the position as teacher of
the Wellington school. During
that winter she met Elmer Kirk
wood and the following spring they
were united in marriage. The
young people were deeply attached
to one another and were constant
companions. In July 1906, young
kirkwood contracted a severe cold
which developed into consumption
within very short time, his con-
dition grew serious and last July,
just a year from the time he was
taken sick, he passed away. Dur
ing his year of illness, the young
wife nursed and cared for her in
Wild husband day and night, never
faltering from what she deemed
her duty, her only thought was to
make cher Elmer" comfortable.
When ths end came his arms were
tightly clasped around her neck
and with faint kiss pressed "a
gainst her pale cheek, his life's
anticipations of few short months
before were DER. With her head
upon the silent breast of the dead
shs prayed to God to take her also.
On last Saturday court was held
at Bridgeport at which time the
probate matters of her husbands
estate was brought up, he having
left no will. After court she re-
turned to Chas. Kirkwood's home
where she has been living for the
past few months. After the eve
ming meal she retired to her room
to write some letters. A little
later members of the family heard
her scream and rushed to the room
but were met by her and asked to
be left alone. They left the room
but returned shortly after and
found the young women slowly

A Big MINING
TRANSACTION
Kennedy Finally Decides to SELL
His BuckSkin Mine for
$4,000.

TOR consideration of $21O,-
l. 600 and a large block OF
stock, the controlling interest in
the Kennedy Consolidated mine
at Buckskin was sold last Friday
after hanging fire for the past
eight months. The deal was clos
ed in Reno, the purchasers being
wealthy Philadelphia capitalists
who already own much of the
most valuable copper properties
in the west.
This is one of the biggest mining
deals to take place in this part of
Nevada, and the property con-
cerned in the transaction is known
to be one of the best copper mines
in the entire west. Best of all it is
in Douglas county. 1t is the
original location OF the Buckskin
district, having been located by
w. D. Kennedy.
The new owners intend to con-
tinue the work on the mine and
equip it with hoists and every
modern convenience in the way OF
machinery used in working the
large copper mines of the country.
1t is rumored that in a short time
they will start work on large
smelter, which will be located on
the flat just helow the town OF
Buckskin.
Buckskin has been pronounced
to be a copper camp without a
rival in the United States, consid-
ering its age. On the Champagne
lease of the Kennedy, which is
owned by Ward, Champagne,
Falcke and Mccormick, a large
body of copper ore has been opened
up at depth OF ouly 100 feet.
This lease does not expire until
eighteen months from now and it
is predicted that an independent
fortune is in sight for the leasers.

MAN ARRESTED FOR
DOING KITCHEN WORK

The Servant Girls Union Of Pitts
burg has triumphed at last. Blains
Chester Of "a Federal street, who is
big enough and husky enough to carry
a hod, but who was employed as a
man Of all work in the home Of Miss
Carrie Hall, ga Fourth avenue, was
sent to the workhouse for ninety days
for no other reason than that he was
keeping some girl out Of a job.
WHAT led up to the arrest of Ches-
ter was carried on as secretively as
was ever a plan launched. Perhaps
a servant girl who was out of a Job
was the sweetheart of Policeman Da-
vid Lennox and told him the story.
Anyhow Policeman Lennox arrested
Chester at the home of Miss Hall,
declaring that he was a suspicious
person. .
Chester was tidying up the dining
room and washing the luncheon dishes
when the policeman called on HIS little
errand. Chester was indignant, and
so was Miss Hall, but Policeman Len
nox was relentless.
You'll have to come along" he
said, so Chester took, off his apron and
went with him.
At Central Station Chester was at
once taken before Magistrate Kirby

Policeman Lennox said.
What have you got to say for your
self" asked the Magistrate. =:
IT'S outrageous" declared Chester.

the only reason that am arrested is
because of the Servant Girls Union

whatever. and have been bounding me

well, 1 guess I'll give you some

things besides kitchen work."

TO WORK
by Herbert Casom n, Labor Clarion,

Some writer's and orators who know
less about the labor question than they
do about the north pole declare that
trades unions destroy personal liberty
and keep all workers down to "a dead
level of sloth and incompetency."
This is just as true as to say that
the seats In a street car destroy the
! liberty of the passengers to stand up.
There never was a more shameless
| fraud than this right to work" propo-
sition in the way that 1t is being put
| forward by the trusts. The right to
work for nothing is not a right; it is
a wrong
When body Of workingmen are be-
| ing treated with gross injustice, when
| their employer contemptuously refuses
even to arbitrate rather than slaves,
| the "scabs" who take their places are
morally criminals.
1t is legal to be "scab' in such a
! case. There Is no law against the
"scab" any more than there is against
the monopolist or the Wall Street
plunger. But the harm wrought to
the nation by these three is as great
as that done by burglars or counter
| feiters.
| No man has right to make himself
a menace to the community or nation
'in which he lives. The man who is
beastly enough to be satisfied to live
in pigstye has no right 70 endanger
the public health by his unclean hab-
! its.
| Do we not quarantine a mans pri-
vate house and violate it's privacy in
a dozen ways II he or any OF his fam
lily have a contagious disease?
| What becomes of the sancity of the
home when the home contains case
Of cholera?
| What are trades union organized for
If not to obtain more personal liberty
for their members? Can anyone seri-
ously imagine that body of men will
band together and pay dues for years
for the sake of getting less personal
liberty than they have?
What does liberty mean? Is man
free who has nothing to say about his
wages and hours Of labor? Is a man
free whose only aim in life is to do
what he is told and take what he is
offered? Is this Is freedom, then the
trusts must have a peculiar dictionary
of their own.

their own interests, who will? Will

fessor? Will the supreme court?
