In passing a lonely cabin in the
Pinenut hills last Saturday, a man
by the name of Ford paused and
peeped through the cabin window
and to his surprise. gazed upon the
semi-nude and badly decomposed
remains of a human being. He
notified the authorities OF his
find and they went out to in
vestigate and found the remains OF
Henry Evans, a .eolored man, dead
in his cabin. He had been dead
for some time as the remains were
badly decomposed, despite the cold
weather. Nothing save a half can
of mustard was found in the hut
and it was evident that the un-
fortunate man had starved to
death. Evans had lead a hermit's
life in secluded locality in the
hills for the past 25 years and had
eked out miserable existence by
chopping wood but his enfeebled

condition the past year kept him
from doing much work.
The remains of Evans were
brought to Gardnerville last Sun
day and buried by the county.
In the Epassing OF this man,
brings to memory tragedy which
occurred in the mountains some
fifteen years ago which Evans
played a leading part. A man by
the name OF Webb, a gun fighter,
started a row with the colored
man and without warning Webb
pulled his gun and began pumping
lead at his victim who was un-
armel. Webb's aim was defective,
and Evans, who was powerful
built man, grabbed small club
or limb and threw it with terrific
force at his antagonist, striking
him on the side of the head killing
him instantly.

George Dale, one of the first men
to settle In Carson Valley, died at
Sheridan last Sunday evening
after short illness. He was about
81 years and had resided in the
Valley continuously for a great
many years. Deceased was a
native OF Indiana, and while yet a
young man started west with a
man by the name OF Joe Butler,
lurcd by the wonderful tales of
gold discoveries in California. Up
on reaching this Valley they gave
up their search for gold and turred
their attention to farming. By
their close afliliation and apparant
brotherly love for one another, they
soon gained the title of "The
Twins by which name they were
known by all old settlers. Finally
Butler returned to his native state

Store
Soon to be
Occupied

The interior of the new Jensen
ftore is rapidly assuming the ap.
pearance of a modern store. In a
few weeks the building will be
turned over to the painters for in
terror decoration and when they
have completed their task the store
will be ready for occupancy and the
work of moving the stock from the
buildinh now occupied will begin.
The building, we believe, is the
largest to be erected for like pur-
pose in Nevada in a town the size
of Gardnerville. 1t has approx
mately $500 square feet of floor
space and will be conducted along
the same lines as as a large de-
partment store. The store will be
with all modern ap-
pliances such as automatic cash
carriers, elevators for handling
heavy goods, and other modern i'm
provements and labor saving de-
vices. Mr.. Jensen expects to be
transacting business in the new
building within sixty days.

Bond Alpine
Properties

Thomas Shearer, a mining man
was in town this week, and is look
ing over some properties in this
section. He informs us that he sue
ceeded in interesting capitalists in
the old Leviethan mine at Silver
Mountain in Alpine county and
that they have bond on the prop
erty. In short time the company
expects to put force of men to
work on the mine. The mine in
question was worked to a consider
able extent in early days but was
abandoned for want of funds to
carry on the work. The present
mining revival which is being
experienced in al parts of Nevada
is being instrumental in opening
up many properties which was
worked in days agone, later to be
abadoned, and many of these old
mines which have layed idle all
these years are again made to give
up their hidden treasures.
Mr.. Shearer has also taken a
bond on the Brown claim in Pine
nut, which is a lead and silver
proposition, and expects to put men
to work in Il short time.

near the California line, in Nye
county, Nevada, and died Of thirst.
On the spot where the mans body
was found is now the town of Bull
frog. A water works plant costing
$4,000 supplies an abundance of
water. There are hotels with
baths in many rooms and residen-
ces equipped with all the modern
paraphernalia that make for COM
fort. Electric lights illume the
streets where only the stars of
heaven looked down on the death
of the lonely miner and within the
radius of very few miles there
are now about $4,000.

MARRIED AT
VALLEY SPRINGS

At the Valley Springs last Sat-
urday evening, T. H. Tighe, one of
the leading members of the Es-
meralda county delegation in the
assembly, was united in marriage
to Mrs. Mary Kardona. The we'd
ding was quiet affair, only the
intimate friends being in attend
ance. Rev. Emigh officiated.
The romance which led to the
marriage began in Alaska four
years ago where the couple met.
Two years later Tighe left the
north for Nevada and settled at
Goldfield where he has prospered
in the goods of the world, but he
was not satisfied. Several months
ago he sent for Mrs. Kardona, and
she came from Nome, the old
home, to the great Nevada metro
polls and after short stay there
they came to Valley Springs and
the wedding followed.
The groom is one of the best
known men in the southern
country and thoroughly good
fellow we'll met. Besides mining
aud other interests he is partner
with Sam Wheeler in the Chicago
Furniture company of Goldfield,
which is now putting in a 100000
stock of goods.

In six years the number of banks
in Nevada has increased from sew
en- to forty-one. This is an eviden-
ce of the growth and prosperity of
the State which has not been over
looked by the investor, and which
when recorded in the Banking
Directory of the United States
shows the most remarkable rate
of increase of any section of the
country. The total capitalization
of the banks in Nevada, is $3,164,-
900.
The banks OF the old days were
located at Reno, Car son, Virginia
City, Winemucca, Eureka, and
Austin. Changes have come since
then; the discovery of the gold
camps of the southern part of the
State, the development of the IT.
rigable lands of the Carson Sink
and the Eworld-renowned recigni-
tion which Nevada has gained are
responsible for the. establishment
of more financial institutions in a
shorter period than has ever been
recorded before.
Now Reno has five banks, Car
son two, Gardnerville one, Virginia
one, Yerington one, Sparks one,
Austin one, Wonder one, Fallon
