IS ARRESTED TWICE
FOR SAME OFFENSE
CAMPAIGN AGAINST UNLICENSED
LIQUOR DEALERS RESULTS
IN COMPLICATIONS.

With the arrest of ID. G.. Demetri-
okapalous, Greek general merchant
whose place of business is in the Ely
Hotel building on Aultman street,
on a charge of selling liquor without
first having applied for or procured
liquor license, a campaign has
been inaugurated to compel all mer-
cnandise dealers in the town to COM
ply with the law and pay to the city
government the amount required by
the recently adopted license ordin-
ance, to permit them to deal in
liquors.
The arrest of neutrality-suspicious.
took place Tuesday. He at once
filed a cash bond of 500 with JUS
tice of the Peace A. J. Cartwright,
by which he secured his release from
custody.
Immediately after being released,
the merchant deposited with Sheriff
House, $50 for the payment of the
regular state liquor license, for the
ensuing six months.
Believing that this license filled
all of the requirements of the law
and the ordinances, Demetriokapa-
lous continued to sell liquor.
The result was that Frank Butler
purchased one bottle of beer, and
then swore out complaint against
the merchant charging him with
again violating the liquor license Or
dinance. Neutrality-suspicious. had
planned to leave for Salt Lake this
morning on a business trip, and ar
ranged, through his attorney, to
have the hearing set for next Thurs
day morning
Before legally engaging in the
liquor business, it is necessary that
state license be procured for at
least six months, for which a charge
of $50 is made local license must
also be obtained for not less than
three months, for which a fee of
| 500 is eXacted.
| 1t is alleged that there are num-
| Der of merchants and druggists in
| the town who are dealing in liquors
in small way, but who have not Sc
cured licenses, and it is the intention
! of the officers to issue complaints
against each offender.

CHERRY CREEK MAY
GET RAILROAD spur

Vice President l.. G.. Cannon of the
Nevada Northern railroad arrived in
Ely last night from Cherry Creek,
where he had been for two days in
company with II. l.. Rainesford, min
ing engineer, of Salt Lake, looking
over the Cherry Creek country.
Mr.. Cannon's trip to Cherry Greek
in company with Mr.. Rainesford at
this time is believed to have been fol
the purpose of going over the ground
there, with view of gathering def
mite information concerning the pos
sibility of the construction of spun
from the main line of the road to
Cherry Creek.
Mr.. Rainesford, it is understood
went over the ground for the pur-
pose of making an estimate of the
tonnage of ores that would probably
be shipped from the Cherry Greek
district, in the event such spun
were constructed.
The citizens of Cherry Creek have
made a number of overtures to the
railroad company, asking for the
construction of such a spur. The
town of Cherry Creek is seven miles
from the main line of the Navada
Northern, and the grade is low.

CELEBRATES WINNINGS
BY HIRING BRASS BAND

The Ely band had an unexpected
concert call last night, and the call
was made in so emphatic manner
that it could not be resisted. The
result was that the bandboys, in re-
sponse to hurry call, not waiting to
don their gold lace uniforms, as
sembled in Aultman street at the in
tersection of Murry at s O'Clock last
night, played one number and then
dispersed.
For that single number, which, un-
usual as it may seem, was not Hail,
The Conquering Hero Comes" was
played for the particular benefit of
one man, though a crowd of several
hundred persons enjoyed the music
as did this individual.
AS soon as the number was com
pleted, the band fund was increased
by a crisp bundle of bank notes, the
aggregate value of which was 500.
Walter Rynearson was the angel
for the band Rynearson, who for
merly owned the Capitol saloon, had
been playing in remarkable streak
of good luck during the evening, and
the faro table in the Capitol was
said to have been depleted by his eX-
traordinary skill, good judgement
and good fortune, to the tune of
$1,700 or more.
So elated was Rynearsoh that he
wanted music, and wanted it at once.
He dispatched "A messenger to the
leader of the band, promising gift
of 500 if the band boys would give
him just one number to celebrate his
winnings.
The band boys responded with
alacrity, and in a few minutes they
We're struggling to the point dcsig-
mated. In few minutes more they
were aligned in regular form, the
baton was raised, and then the
"tootle- toot' and the "rub-a-dub-
dub" of the horns and the drum
wakened the echoes. AS soon as the
number was completed, the band dis
persed, and the admiring crowd fol-
lowed Rynearson back to the tables
where he resumed his game.

FROM HUNTING TRIP
GUN CLUB MEMBERS HAVE DE
LIGHTFUL OUTING AND BAG
MANY GAME BIRDS.

A party of seven Elyites who left
here September 18th on hunting
and fishing trip returned yesterday
with big bag of game All of the
party are members of the Ely Gun
| club and their return has been anX-
iously awaited by those who are fond
of birds. That these were not disap-
pointed was shown by the fact that
the wagon which brought them in
contained 204 ducks and quite a
number of smaller birds.
The first day out the party camped
at the Cleveland ranch and fished
until September 18th, when the duck
season opened. Cleveland creek was
found to be pretty well iished out but

piled with mountain trout and the
party had no trouble in getting al
they wished for food They made
their headquarters for duck hunting
at Olsen's ranch and everyone in the
| party brought in good bag of game
when the dinner gong was sounded
on the first day. After the first day
| they had the large flocks spotted and
they got all the birds they could eat
or wished to carry. While shooting
several members of the party saw
two antelopes but they were too far
| distant for shotgun to be effective.
| All of the members of the club speak
of the hospitality shown them at the
Olsen and Cleveland ranches and
wish to express their gratitude.
There was duck-fest at Andy

POOR STANDARD OIL
HOPES TO EvADE FINE

CHICAGO, Sept. 1S.-The Tribune
yesterday said: THE $29, 900
fine imposed on the Standard Oil
company by Judge Lands, in the
Federal court, recently, will be wiped
out of existence on a technicality, if
the schemes of the Standard Oil law
yers, which became known yesterday,
are carried to fruition.
'In the event that the Alton is
granted the immunity which it has
been fully established was promised
to the railroad through agreement
with Former Attorney General
Moody, the Standard Oil attorneys
will demand that Judge Landis fine
he set aside. The ground for this
plea will be that the Standard law
yers should have been apprised OF
this immunity agreement, in order
that they might question the Alton
railroad witnesses properly.

OFFICERS SETTLE
DOMESTIC TROUBLE
MAN COMPEIIS WIFE TO LEAVE
WAGON-THEN CAUSES
RUNAWAY.

John Dodd, who has been en-
ployed for several weeks on various
ranches in the valley as a haymaker
and field hand, gave Deputy Sheriffs
Ed. Gilbert and Al. Butler chance
to enjoy buggy ride yesterday af-
ternoon.
Dodd and his wife were on their
way to Phoebe, driving two teams
and leading an extra team of horses.
When the little cayalcade had reach
ed the warm springs about a mile
from town according to Mrs. Dodd $
story, her husband concluded that
she had accompanied him far enough
compelled her to alight from the
wagon in which she was riding, and
then according to her story, he
struck the horses with a whip and
caused them to run away.
The frightened animals dashed in
TO hay wagon, and were stopped
by the driver, who took them back
to Mrs. Dodd and inquired into the
t~Hnhle between the man and his
lrUa.5
wife.
Mrs. Dodd declared that her hus-
band had been drugged and was not
responsible for his actions. The
driver of the hay wagon then tele-
phoned to town for help, and the
officers went to the scene post haste.
BY the time they had arrived.
Dood and his wife had come to an
agreement, she promising TO come to
town and get him a supply of brandy
if he would allow her TO ride. The
trouble was patched up, upon the ar
rival of the officers, and Dodd and his
wife continued their journey toward
Pioche- minus the brandy that Mrs.
Dodd had promised to secure for her
husband. No arrests were made

DUzETTE GROUP CHANGES
HANDS, PRICE NOT GIVEN

The Duzette group OF claims To-
Gated near Lane Guy have been sold
to the Ely Standard Copper company.
The Snyders, who control the Ely
Standard company, have contempiat-
ed the purchase of the claims for
some time, but it was not until John
A. Steele, who is one of the owners
left for Salt Lake to make the trans
fer of the property that the deal
was considered practically closed.
The ground on which the Duzette is
located was staked out several years
ago by r. A. Riepe and John A.
Steele, and embraces five claims. In
selling this ground Steele and Riepe
do not reserve the surface right for
townsite purposes as has been done
in several other deals that were made
on ground located in that vicinity.

WHAT MANURE DID
FOR ONE FARM
By PROF. HARRY SNYDER.

My attention was recently called to
farm in Dakota county, Minnesota,
where, when the country was being
settled, a strip Of apparently poor
land was passed over as worthless for
grain production. Later it was home.
steaded by settler who came in q
one-horse outfit. Instead of raising
grain, this man started in on q small
scale to feed live stock. Screenings
and grain could be obtained. for the
hauling. The manure was judiciously
used and the soil responded to this
method Of farming. In few years
upon this apparently poor soil larger
crops were produced than upon the
surrounding wheat lands. Today It
is one Of the most productive farms
in the county, and its fertility is the
result Of farm manure.
Farm manures are valuable be
cause they add new stores of fertility
to the soil. They change the inactive
plant food to more available forms
through the production Of Inmates
which are utilized by crops as foods.
They improve the physical properties
of soils, make them warmer, more
responsive to cultivation. and regulate
the water supply for crop growth.
They add to the permanent crop pro.
ducing power Of the soil and regulate
the supply Of plant food by causing
disintegration and other changes to
take place. They aid in producing
forage crops which contain the largest
amount Of protein and other available
nutrients. MANFRED lands produce
not only larger but more valuable
crops. IN.
