Seven Inning
Game Sunday

At the baseball grounds last
Sunday afternoon the local pro-
fessional nine crossed bats with
the scrub" nine, and a very
interesting event was carried
through for seven innings, the
local "profs" winning by a score
of five to three.
Pioche had the good fortune to
see one of the best baseball man
ayers in Lincoln county in the
person of Vic. Troise, the multi
of Ell Dorado Canyon.
He handled the game in a man
ner that would have done justice
to any national league player,
and his coaching was Of so diff
ferent a kind that those occupy
ing bleacher seats threw in an
extra half dollar just to see the
manager" do his stunts around
the first bag. Perfectly uni
formed he enjoyed the game i'm
mensely, and will play a return
engagement next season at Pi-
oche.
Las Vegas boys are accusing
the Caliente bunch" of cold
feet, and much disappointment
has resulted by the latter team
cancelling all engagements.
Well be after you next season,
Caliente, and will teach you the
game.

Child Badly Scalded.

A very painful, as well as SER
ious accident, occurred to little
Guillan Llyod yesterday morn
ing. Some boiling water was
standing in a bucket on the floor,
and the little fellow backed into
it, with the result that he was
most painfully scalded.
DR.. Duckworth was immed-
lately called and dressed the
wounds. Grave fears were en-
tertained at first for the recov-
cry. Mr.. and Mrs. Lloyd who
are in Los Angeles, have been
communicated with, and are ex-
pected here this evening.
At last reports the condition
of the baby was much improved.

Searchlight
to Have City
Government

After having perfected all pre-
liminary steps toward the incor-
poration of Searchlight for a city
of third class, the necessary
papers were introduced by Leon
French, before Hon. Geo. S.
Brown, at the last session of
the court Tuesday evening. Due
consideration was given the
proposition by the court and an
order made to proceed and pre-
sent the final decree.
Those appointed as commit
tee to have in charge and order
the first city election are C. E.
Burdick, w. H. Bradley, Launce-
lot Gilroy, Chas. W. Lund and
c. L. Buckley. 1t is expected
to hold the first election about
November 10th.
The city will consist of thre e
wards and the officers of the
government are as follows:
Mayor, City Clerk and Treasurer,
City Judge, City Marshall and
three Councilmen. It is under
stood that they will secure some
one for mayor to act without
compensation, also the council
men will receive no salaries; the
the clerk and treasurer and the
marshal will receive a stated
salary monthly, while the Judge
will receive fees similar to those
now allowed the justice of the
peace in unincorporated towns.
By this incorporation the city
will receive all gaming licenses
and tits expected that this source
of revenue will amply provide
means to carry on the govern
ment expenses.

Don't Carry
A Weapon

At the conclusion of the Nc
Gwin case Tuesday afternoon,
Judge Brown dwelt on the SUBJ
ject of the officers of the law al
lowing the promiscuous carrying
of concealed weapons by various
parties, and that no attempt is
being made whatever to prose-
cute the cases when found by
the officers.
Even in Phoebe of recent date
there has been too much of free
use of weapons, flashing them in
saloons and trying to play the
act of a bad man." This should
be stopped. Now that the rail
road is nearing town, and the
rough element that follows the
construction of the road will
drift here. every precaution

Special Correspondence.

Searchlight, New, Sept. 29,
1907. The mob Hill section of
the ElDorado Mining District is
destined to become a bonanza
producer second to none in this
end of the state. At the present
time active work is in progress
in twelve different properties,
all in ore and producing.
The Silver Legion mine is easi-
ly the producer in the matter of
production and in the showing
of high grade ore. From the
85-foot level on this property
silver lead ore is being sacked,
running between 5000 and $500
per ton. This is taken from an
eighteen inch streak next to the
hanging wall, while the balance
of the vein, about four feet, is
thrown on the ore dump. The
latter will run between $35 and
$40 per ton, and will be handled,
the management states, by con-
centrating machines.
On the Mizpah mine adjoining.
Superintendent A. K. Wright is
sacking high grade ore and sink
ing a vertical shaft intersecting
the known richest vein at a
depth of 100 feet. Mr.. Wright
has had charge of this property
only three months, and in this
time has opened up ore in four
different shafts on two separate
and distinct veins. Several ship
ments have been made in the
past from here, and one ship
ment to the Selby Smelling
Works brought returns of $238
per ton eet.

Monday morning the case of
the of the State against Andy

OF murder, was commenced.
After exhausting the entire

ed a Mexican named Caballeros
in Searchlight, and has been in
the county Jail ever since, await
ing trial. From the evidence
produced by the State, it was
hardly thought a conviction
could be had, and the defendant
had the public sentiment of his
innocence, Of almost the entire
community Of Searchlight. Wit
nesses for the State seemed tn
be on the wrong side, and the
fact that the man killed was a
Mexican, and as testified by the
officers of that town, to have
been quarrelsome at different
times previous to the killing,
made a very light case for the
State. The jury in this case
was out but a short time and re-
turned a verdict of not guilty.
Tuesday evening the Judge
passed sentence as follows on
those convicted: Thomas How
ard, for the crime of petit lar
ceny, five months in the county
Jail.
Henry James, for burglary,
one year and nine months in the
state prison.
Pedro Gonsalas, assault with a
dangerous weapon with intent to
kill, eight years in the state
prison.
Chris Peterson, embezzle-
ment one year in the state
prison.
Michael Larkin, for burglary.
one year and six months in the
state prison.

given two years in the state

News From
Ell Dorado
Mob Hill Section on the Improve.
Silver Legion Great Producer.

Ire Fortuna mine is now work
ing in full blast. Since the re-
sumo Superintendent A. A. Nc
knight has been engaged princi-
pally in planning extensive fu-
ture development, and at the
same time to extract sufficient
ore to make not only the proper
ty self-supporting, but to lay
aside sufficient money to pay for
the installation of a large equip
ment of expensive machinery.
The last shipment on this pro-
perty gave such handsome re-
turns that the management is
going to make regular shipments
from now on. The ore is being
sacked as it is taken from the
workings, and very little sorting
is needed. Specimens from this
property have assayed as high as
$500 in gold and silver. Chunks
of horn silver have been found
in the course of development as
large as a hens egg. The vein,
which faulted at the 10O-foot
level III the early development,
was found by prosecuting back
fifteen feet, and is now stronger
and richer than in any of the up
per workings. Superintendent
E. Flynn on the Fortuna Exten-
sion, will resume active work ON
the property within a few days.
Work was suspended temporarily
owing to the extreme heat, but
from now on three shifts of
miners will be worked. This
property is an extension of the
rich Fortuna vein, and in all
likelihood will soon be a producer.

Our New
Ordinances

Monday next is the date fixed
for the passage of the town ordi-
nances for the towns of Phoebe,
Caliente and Las Vegas, by the
Board of Commissioners. To Pr
oche this action means much, as
the town needs very badly the
reorganizatin of a fire depart
ment and the necessary equip
ment in the way of hose, also re-
pairs to some of the water mains.
this one matter seems to us to
be of the most Importance, for
immediate action by the proper
officials.
Then follows the installation
of night watchman, whose duty
it will be to guard and keep
watch of all buildings in the
business section, and to compel
ALL property owners to safely
put up stovepipes and any other
safeguards to prevent fires.
Sanitary regulations will also be
put into effect as soon as the
proper ordinances governing this
department are in force. The
ordinances will require one
weeks publication, after which
they become effective. Every
property owner and renter in
town should be more than careful
in the way of starting fires, as,
under the present condition of
the water mains very little would
be accomplished in checking a
fire of any great extent. If you
put up a new stovepipe do it in
the right way.

JUSTICE COURT.

In the justice court Thursday
afternoon, one Pedro Chavs was
brought before Judge Garrison
on a charge Of petit larceny.
After hearing the evidence the
Court gave the defendant ten
days in the county Jail.
The defendant, a Mexican,
very craftily appropriated a ten
dollar piece from one of the
gambling games in the Court
Exchange saloon, and had
been gone but a few moments
when the officers approached the
thief and recovered the money.

Lunch Man
Is Crooked

A short time since there ap-
peared in our town a man that
claimed to be a good lunch man
and proceeded to have a small
stand erected in front of Clark's
Place. Having no means he got
the place built and every neces-
sary article on credit. During
the court session, business
picked up, and a few extra dol
lars rolled in over the counter.
The Jew was there with both
hands, and grabbed the coin. He
had several good nights play,
and decided that the winter
winds of Phoebe were too cold,
SO he may now be found on the
sunny beach of California. A
number of creditors mourn his
departure.

has not yet been secured, as Of
flee rooms are scarce at the pres

located in the central or busi-

near future. Mining and cor
poration law will be handled
with promptness and they justly
deserve a good portion of the
business, both in Searchlight
and Phoebe.

STATE AUDITOR HERE

State Auditor Nate Rolf and
his son were at the county seat
the past four days looking into
the books and affairs of the vari-
Gus county officers. 1t was cur
rently reported at first that the
state auditor would establish a
uniform system of bookkeeping
all over the state, but such is not
the case, the object being to
check up all Financial transac-
tions between the officers, and
make such needed suggestions
as appears to him a benefit to
the officers. He left Wednesday
morning and will return again in
December.
