FINDS CURIOUS RELIC NEAA
EIGHT NILE HOUSE
It is a Section of Backbone of Animal
and Has a Flint Arrowhead
Lodged Firmly in It

From the Reno Gazette.
A mining man named Bray, while
at work near the Eight Mile house a
few days ago, discovered a curious rel
ic which is now in Sheriff Ferrel's col
lection.
The curio is q section Of the back
bone of some animal, probably a coy
ote. There are about a dozen OF the
bleachad vertabrae hanging together,
and there is no way Of telling by the
appearance of the bones how many
years the animal has been dead.
In the third bone from the end OF
the spine a flint arrow head is lodged
SO firmly that it could be removed on
ly by breaking the bone. 1t has
punctured the first wall Of the verte,
brae, passed through the spinal cord
and penetrate dthe inside wall of the
bone.
Nevada Indians have not used bows
and arrows for Ger half a century.
There is no telling how long the arrow
head has been lodged in that bone,
but it may have been the greater por-
ton of a century.
1t is probable that some Indian,
while hunting, saw the coyote, and
merely for the sport shot him. The
animal must have dropped instantly
from the position Of the arrow head.
The Indian never though his game
worth much consideration. He may
have attempted to pull out the arrow
and separated the shaft from the
head. But the piece of flint remained
firm in the spine of the quarry, and
there it sticks today, a noble testi-
monial of the craftsmanship OF the
Nevada Indian, which made the Afe
Of the hardy pioneer who founded this
state one Of hardship and danger.

DESERT TAKES TOLL OF LIVES

Reports of the death of prospectors
and others on the desert continue to
come in with alarming frequency.
Never before in the history of the
west have so many deaths occurred on
the vast deserts of Nevada, Califor-
MIA and Arizona, and yet more people
died from heat in the city of Phila-
delphia in one day recently than dur
ing any year of the history of mining
in the southwest. The reason for the
unusual mortality in these mining re-
gions is that there are at present more
people on the desert than ever before,
and by far the greater number of
them have never had similar expert
ence and take too many risks. Where
seven years ago, before the discovery
of Tonopah, not over 200 persons
made their homes there aSs today in
Nevada, California and Arizona des-
erts over $4,000 people. The percent.
age of mortality from heat on the
desert is far lower than that due to
any of several other causes, among
them excessive drinking, pneumonia
and death by violence in various
forms.-American Mining Review.

There were ten men in the saloon at
the time, some of them being engaged
in playing the games, when W men
suddenly entered the place, one IN
the rear door and one in the front
Each was armed with a revelover and
each were a handkerchief over his
face to conceal his IDENTITY. They de-
manded that everybody throw up
their hands and then lined the me1
up against the wall.
One of the robbers covered the mel
with his gun while the other helped
himselff to the coin on the roulette
wheel an dthen took all he found in
the cash register. The money obtain
ed, they started to back out and were
almost at the door when Ben Gillian
the bartender, made a move to get ms
gun. ne OF the robbers was too quicH
for him, however, and fred just one
shot. 1t struck the bartender in the
head and he fell to the floor. The two
men then rushed out and disappeared
in the dark.
Judging from the appearance of the
holdup men, they wire graders ron

TWO MEN POSE AS
 ONE GIRLS BRIDEGROOM Mystery Surrounding the Dis appearance of the Heiress
 Deepens. BRIDE NOT HEARD FROM Clarkson Announcement Brings Forth Claim from Arthur
 Herbert Osborn.
BRIDE NOT HEARD FROM

New York, Oct. 1.-The mystery surrounding the disappearance more than a week ago of Helen Maloney, daughter of Martin Maloney, the Philadelphia millionaire, was given a highly sensational turn to-day. At the time Miss Maloney disappeared, sam uel Clarkson, young Englishman, who had paid her attention, also drop ped out of sight Last night came the news from Montreal that the miss ing pair had been married by Cath olio priest in that city and then had returned to New York and sailed for Europe,
 Now comes the publication here to- day of an unqualified statement from Arthur Herbert Osborn, young broker of this city, that he and Miss Maloney were married on Dec. 2S, 1905 and that the marriage never has been ,sannulled. Osborn declares that rec ords in the notary's office at Mamaro- neck which show that Herbert Osborn had married Helen Eugene on that i date will prove his statement He said that assumed names were used be- cause at the time both he and Miss Maloney desired to keep the marriage secret.
 The fact of the marriage did become known, however, according to Os- born, who declares that among thoss who learned of it was young Clark. son. He says that not only did Clarkson know of the marriage, but 1 that only short time ago he sought to have 1t annuled having gone so far as to consult a New York lawyer on the subject.
 | Osborn was student in Princeton when the marriage with Miss Maloney is alleged to have taken place. He said to-day that after the ceremony the young woman returned to her home while he remained with his parents.
 Osborn is the son of the late William F. Osborn, for many years an officer in the American Sugar company, who
 
 was a son of the late Major Walter osborn, for many years leading New Haven man and tax collector here for a long time. The young man, Osborn, is also a nephew of the late Wilbur F.. Day for years president of the Nation- al New Haven bank. He is twenty three years old and the only child, and a fortune will come to him at the death of his mother.
 Recent Marriage Conflrmtd.
 Montreal, Oct. 11.--Alexander L. Bonin, a Montreal lawyer confirms the statement that Helen Maloney and Samuel Clarkson were marrici in this city on the evening of October B. He promised not to say anything about the details of the wedding. They are supposed to have left for New York. en route to Europe, but the impression is that they have not sailed.
 Doubts Osborn Marriage.
 Philadelphia, October 11.-Andrew P. Maloney, uncle of the missing girl, said to-day that his brother, Martin Maloney was prostrated as the result ol the disappearance of his daughter, and that all interviews said to have emanated from him arc untrue. Mir. Maloney said he knew nothing of inc reported Osborn marriage but believed | 1t to be untrue.
 He knew Osborn, he added, as a friend of Miss Maloney's and conclud- ed that it twas up to Osborn to prove | the marriage"

FOR HANNAH CRAY HOME
A BENEFIT CAKE SALE
Successful Affair at Warner Hall-Participants in En-
 tertainment.

A cake sale and entertainment was held in Warner hall yesterday after noon and evening by the Twentieth Century club for the benefit of the Hannah Gray home for aged colored women. This home is located at 16S Dixwell avenue, the property having been left by will of Hannah Gray, a colored woman to be devoted to this purpose. The home was started back in the sixties, but some years ago be- cause of the neglect of those having it in charge, the taxes were so heavily in arrears that it was feared the home would have to be sacrificed.
 About six years ago the Twentieth Century club took the burden of the support upon themselves and they have at present in the home six aged women who are receiving the comforts and necessities of life.
 These Twentieth Century women hope to enlarge the home In the near future as there is need of more room and it is to this end that they are giving some fine entertainments.
 A most interesting program was heard last evening by very enthusi- astic audience.
