DIED OF DIPHTHERIA AT
SACRAMENTO

Claude Garry, youth of about
II years Of age who had been en-
ployed as a call boy in Winnemucca,
for period Of about two weeks and
who about week ago became i'll and
was sent last Saturday evening to the
railroad hospital at Sacramento under
orders of DR.. w. L. Samuels. died at
that place this morning and the cause
of his death was pronounced diph
liberia.
A telegram received Today by
Yardmaster j. w. Smith from Train
master Stinson at Carlin told Of the
demise Of Carry and requested the
former to make an effort to get the
address of his relatives, who it is
thought were living in Butte. All ef-
fort of the yardmaster to locate the
above addrtss was fruitless.
Practically nothing is known here
Of Carry. He came about two weeks
ago and applied for position of call
boy and was gwen the position. He
was afflicted with severe nervousness,
and was apparently not in good
health.
He had only been working about a
week when he was taken sick and DR..
Samuels called to attend him. The
patient was stopping at the Busch ho-
tel. The disease was an affection Of
the throat, and although it gave no
indications Of being Of diphtheric
nature, yet the doctor ordered the pa
tient to be moved to a room in the
rear and disconnected with the h,tvl
In few days he ordered him sent to
the hospital ut Sacramento. And he
was taken ON number three Saturday
night.
DIR. Samuels states that symptoms of
diphtheria must have developed after
Carry left here. because he showed no
signs Of the disease while under his
care.
The room occupied by Carry at the
Busch hotel has been thoroughly FUN
igated, but whether any further pre-
cautions were to be taken was not
learned.

GRUESOME RELICS FOUND
IN DEATH VALLEY SINK.

The upper portion Of skull, a
bunch Of matted brown hair, and a
towel in which the head was wrapped,
gruesome mt mentocs Ct desert trag-
edy, were taken to Los Angeles q few
days ago by Bill Key, famous Death
Valley prospector.
prospector named Michael Corrall
found a grave in the sink of Death
valley and reported the matter to
Key, who at once started for the spot.
He located the grave January 15, at a
point about twenty miles south of
Furnace Creek ranch neaer Tule
Springs, in the vicinity of Bennett Is
ranch.
Near the grave, which was unmark-
cd by either slab or monument. but
which had been partially opened by
the coyotes, was found pick, a
shovel, portion Of valise and two
small boards Tho grave was lare.y
a hoe in the sand, the deepest point
not exceeding Two feet, while the re-
mains were but six inches under cover.
The body, which had been reduced to
skeleton, was wrapped in canvass
and had been doubled up like jack
knife and set down in the hole with
the feet as high as the head. A few
yards distant, under greasewood
bush and covered over with sticks,
was bloody canvass with the initials,
"F. H." probably the manufactur
cr's mark.
The unfortunate man was dressed
in par of striped pants and had on
pair of No. shoes. Aside from
these things, rothing was found in or
about the grave by which identified
tion may be made. There was not a
card or scrap of paper to be found.
Nothing except the clothing or the
val,se may be used as clews to the
man g identity. The man was short
of stature.

PLANNED
A SAFE BLOWING

In the hills southeast of town, q
favcrite hiding place for goods stolen
by railroad thieves, Deputy Sheriff
Muller and Special Agent j. G. Rich
while searching the well known cache
ground for possible clews to robbery
that has recently been committed,
made startling discovery. They un
covered box Of dynamite caps and
about hundred feet of fuse. The
goods had been carefully cd1cea ed
and had been carried further away
than is ordinarily the case, and it was
only by following the tracks made by
the thieves that the loot was located.
The find has put the local officers
in quandry, whether the explosives
were merely goods stolen from the
railroad company for the value they
represented or whether some Interior
and dark motive was the purpose in
hiding them there. In other words,
has plan been formed to dynamite
some safe in Winnemucca. Evidence
seems to point that way. Dynamite

value when compared to other goods
so much easier disposed Of or SO much
Neasitr handled. A railroad thief
would pass up a theft Of this kind
every time for theft of drygoods or
other or cutlery or merchandise. There
fore it is not to be presumed that this
dynamite material was stolen for it's
value alone.
In all probability daring plan for
safe blowing in Winnemucca or vi
vinity had been fixed.
Immediately after the discovery
and before the news of it had been
given out, guard was stationed at
the place with orders to arrest any
ono coming to get the goods. No one
however showed up.
The goods had been secreted only
recently, for the earth where they
were covered up was still fresh when
the discovery was made.

HUMBOLDT RIVER
FLOW MEASURED
STATIONS FOR MBAsUR.
ING FLOW OF RIVER
STILL MAINTAINED.
Affords Public Reliable Means Of As
certaining Amount Of Water Car
ried by the River.

The stations for measuring the flow
of Humboldt river, established several
years ago by the United State geolog-
ical survey, have been continued dur
ing the past season, notwithstanding
the reduction in the appropriation for
such work made by congress at it's last
secession.
The Humboldt rises in the north
eastern part of Nevada, flows west
and southwest across the structural
features of the country, and enters
find their way into the Humboldt sink.
The tributaries follow the general di-
rection of the mountain ranges and
flow either to the north or south.
During low stages the water Of the
river is almost wholly diverted, and
for tht future development of tho
country RECOURSE must be had to the
construction of storage reservoirs.
OF the tributaries North Fork enters
the stream west Of Peko, and South
Fork about ten miles below Elko,
Ntvada. Pine creek comes in from
the south near Palisade. Mary's riv-
er is one Of the headwater branches.
Three gauging stations are main.
taincd on the main stream-at Pali-
sade, Golconda and Oreana. The North
Fork is measured near Elburz and the
South Fork about ten miles southwest
of Flko. At Oreaha during 1905 the
flow of the stream measured from 0
to 400 cubic feet Per second.
The stream flow measurements
carried on by the United States geo.

ten men HAVE
GONE WRONG
BUT A PURLoSE HAS
BEEN ACCOMPLISHED.

Tho Strength Of the Enemy has Been
Learned-Deefeat is but Stepping
Stone to Victory.
The following letter is self explain
atOry:
Masonic Temple, Reno, Nevada, Feb
ruary s, 1907.
Winnemucca, Nevada.
Editor Silver State,
Dear Sir:-Ten men have gone
wrong, no matter why.
In the first skirmish we were beat
en- by the ra lroads, but have accom-
plishcd our purpose, having learned
the strength of the enemy.
The lobby had not even enough de-
cency or courtesy to spare our feel
ings; the rcd rag was insolently
Haunted before our eyes.
Nevada is today on the threshold of
great future; just railroad rates are
the foundation of its growth.
The movement for railroad legisla-
ton grows daily. it5 character is rev.
olutionary.
There are no Republican or Demo.
erat parties in this movement. The
two are united as the people. The rail-
roads are the opposing party.
1t is up to the press Of Nevada, as
the voice of the people, to take up the
fight in all earnest and to prove that
it is greater than the lobby.
Both Republican and Democratic
papers stand united on the grim pur
pose of carrying out the will Of the
people, the railroad subsidized organs
alone standing aloof.
We are not children, nor are we
half witted. We know what we want
and We propose to get it.
Should we lose in this instance.
many other defeats will fall to our lot.
The present fight is for pr. nciple; its
winning will bring us realization of
our own strength and mean the dawn
ing of great cmancipated Nevada
We can win if we want to.
The nerve that never relaxcs, the
eyee that never blanches, the thought
that nver wanders, are masters Of
victory.
Now then, all together!
Let us fight on!
Let the stings of disappointment mt
but incite us to fresh endeavor; the
blows but arouse our fighting blood!
The battle hardens. Defeat is but
stepping stone to victory.
Our legislators are not fighting
against Us, but for themselve
Mind and brain are sharpened bv
struggle.
Let us resolve, every day, to put
few sledge hammer thoughts into
printers ink ON paper to show them
that in fighting with us they will get
more for themselves.
In the melee it is rough and tumble
till the leader appears. Then those
who blindly, selfishly and unwilling
ly ohstructed, will foli.w and sup
port.
The press, voicing the sentiment of
the people, is leading.
Keep on leading. Do not relax.
Gather your followers until all are
with you. Then the portals of sue
cess will open as if by magic.
All together, fight on!
Cordially yours,
NEVADA PUBLICITY COMMITTEES
