JOHN MILLER has
PASSED IN"
Old Prospector Cannot Be Found
Friends Fear For His
Safety.

LOvELOCK, New, June 5.---The
friends Of John Miller, an old time
prospector, fear that he has wandered
into the hills and perishcd The last
heard of him was at the Humboldt
Queen mine. In reply to an inquiry
w. E Castle writes the following:
1 received your letter in due time
and must say ! am very much afraid
John Miller has "passed in." He left
Sacramento canyon to go down to the
mouth Of Limerick canyon to take the
stage for Spring Valley He had been
drinking heavily and reached the mouth
of the canyon with another man and
said he would walk up to Bennett 5
and get some water and wait for the
stage there. That is the last ever seen
of him, as he did not take the stage
McCarty's boy found a bundle, can
vas and a sweater which we know was
his, so / rather think he went out of
his head and wandered off looking for
water. He may be all right and L only
hope he is, but it looks bad to me. The
bundle was found off the road on an
old road and we know it was his can
vas as it had George Dykes name
on it.

ROUND TRIP MADE YESTERDAY
IN THE BLUME AUTOMOBILE.
Party Of Six Visit the Booming Young

Return In Record Time.

"When we reached the big fat
twenty five miles wide on the way TO
Rosebud the machine skinned along
like it was running on cement floor.
Ten miles ahead of us we could see
two horse rig. AS the machine ate
up the distance the lorm of the rig
became steadily more distinct. In a
few minutes we had caught up with

that / was unable to distinguish who
was in the rig or which way it was
going"
The former is part of the description
which p. b. Roberts, the well known
proprietor of the Palace, gives concern
ing the automobile trip to Rosebud
made by a party of six yesterday i'll
Phil Bume's new machine.
The machine was out to establish
record between Winnemucca and Rose
bud and the record was certainly estab
lished The distance was covered in
less than three hours and the party
spent day in Rosebud, and departed
for the return trip when the evening
shadows began to lengthen. Back they
came in the same lightning time and
arrived in Winnemucca in time for
supper.
The party consisted Of Sheriff Lamb,

NOTED PROSPECT.
OR IS HERE
HAS SEEN FIFTY YEARS OF
HARD FRONTIER SERVICE.
Robert d. Brown Passed Three Score
and Ten. Yet Prefers the Life
In Lonely Places.

Robert D. Brown, noted prospec-
tor, has been here for several days on
business. Mr. Brown has passed the
three score and ten mark and seen more
than fifty years of hard frontier and
mountain service in the Pacific States
and Territories and yet is rugged, Wig
orous and hearty. In his day he dis
covered and sold the Uncle Sam mine
at Helena, Mont, the Resting Springs
near Death Valley, bought by w. G.
Ralston, and group Of the Panamint
mines, sold to Senator Jones. At pres
ent Mr.. Brown is in the employ of the
Pu, bio Mountain Copper company,
which has extensive holdings in the
northern copper belt. lie is quiet,
unobstrusive man but keen observer
and tireless worker, Notwithstanding
his years He carried dispatches for
the government through the Humboldt
Valley from Fort Halleck to Deep
Wells at very early day during the
Indian troubles. For six years he has
not seen railroad train. He pos
sesses a fund of knowledge of the old
Comstock days and of the time before
the iron horse followed the setting sun.
He is well to do but cares little for
the charm of city life and will soon
leave for his favorite haunts in the
Nevada hills.

tion, rubbed his eyes and said: 'Whatge
masser, whatge wash wish metz And
as he spoke his eye frightened at sight
of an extra eastbound freight pulling
slowly out of the yard.
He leaped up surprisingly fast, ran
out of the waiting room, grabbed hold
of the rods and swung himself up in
under box car, from which position
he waved farewell to the physician,
the local road officials and the motlv
crowd that had gathered.
The crowd laughed and Yarmaster
Smith explained the occurrence.
While switching in the west yards
Switchman Stanley had seen a man ly-
ing in twisted position with his
clothes covered with dirt by the side
Of the road. He formed sudden con
clusion that the man had been hit by
the switch engine and he hurried up
the yards and stated his conclusions
to Mr.. Smith. who quickly called a
physician and started for the scene of
the tragedy. The injured man was
picked up with great care, placed on
a stretcher and brought to the depot,
after which the events recorded above
happened in successive order.
The man was probably beating his
way, had peen hitting the bottle stead
lily and had become so drunk that he
suddenly rolled off the train on which
he was riding.

him the injured man had been hurt in
the west yards and was being brought
in by the switch engine. The doctor

The switch engine puffed up to the
