THE PEOPLE FOR A FAIR DEAL

The Expositor devoted a half col
umn last evening to statement that
the News was the organ of the Ne
yada Northern and that its view of
the answer of the latter to the Meloy
complaint was prejudiced. Further
than which the Expositor declared it
was right in its antagonism to the
railroad on general principles and in
sidiously urged the cultivation of
hatred and antagonism, not emitting
to scatter a few words at conclusion
which had for intent furtherance of
antagonism to Ely City and to those
interests which have expended mil
lions of dollars in the last few years
to the end of opening up the district
and bringing it into its own.
The article in question purported
in opening to be answer to COM
mendation by the News of the atti-
tude of the Nevada Northern with re-
gard to that roads opposition to es-
Establishment of freight depot in Ely
on a site which would afford neither
room nor safety to the public, nor
allow of consideration of the prop
erty holdings of individuals, which
would not only be decreased in value
by the location of railroad freight
depot yards thereon, but would as
we'll be involved in litigation. How
ever, if the Expositor made answer,
we have failed to SO discern. Be-
yond declaration of prejudice against
the railroad and assertion that such
attitude is right, its alleged answer
contains absolutely nothing. No ar
gument, no proof, nothing of tangible

assertion as a harmless inmate of a
lunatic asylum might make and in
sist upon as right, and is entitled to
Just as much serious consideration.
1t is this sort of bull-headed, unrea-
soning and unjust opposition to fair
deal for the interests engaged in
making for greatness for Robinson
district, Ely City and Ely that has
lined up a little crowd of kickers in
opposition to anything and every
thing that the other fellow may do
or not do. The people of Ely do not
stand by this attitude in any large
number. The noise is made by
small minority, which is steadily
growing beautifully less. As one
citizen put 1t to the News yesterday:

controversy and / want to thank you

GHOSTS WERE BUSY BEES.
Leaking Honey Explains Mystery of
Haunted House In Maryland.

( GSSN'E9 money Explains mystery OF
Haunted House In Maryland.
The mystery surrounding the alleged
haunted chamber in the residence of
DR.. Thomas Fell, president of st.
Johns college, at Annapolis, Md, has
been cleared up by the discovery of an
immense hive of bees under the floor.
Ing.
1t is thought that the thousands of
busy little workers had been making
their abode there for some six or eight
years. After the bees had been either
externinatedi or driven out d hive of
honey eight feet long and sixteen
inches deep was found. 1t is estimated
that there were $50 pounds of 1t, and
the family Of DR.. Fell has honey
enough for Its buckwheat cakes for
zach case it was found those who
lived in the houses had been his
friends.
The case Is the strangest 1 have
ever come across" Detective Harry +.
Dague, who arrested Holbrook. said.
'Why he should have turred burglar l
don't know, for he had good practice
and his services We're in demand for
many miles around here. Although
Holbrook seemed entirely self pos
sessed when talked with him today,
1t may be that he is insane. Only a
crazy man, l believe, would have
walked into the Office of the Pennsyl-
yania Railroad company and asked for
reward for returning mileage books
which he had stolen. When 1t is con
sidered that only a short time before
tod m mil %
he had used two others, one of which
was taken up, his actions do appear
strange.
t'Holbrook insisted that the eight
burgIarics of which he told US were the
only ones he committed. We know,
however, of at least score of bur
elnries in the Inst few months that
bear the earmarks of having been COM
mttted by the same person. AS Hol-
brook confessed that he was guilty of
eight of them, we believe that he also
committed the others.
In all the burglaries the burglar
seemed to know just where to find the
raluables III the house. Holbrook OF
course visited the houses many times
either In his professional capacity or
rs guest and therefore it would have
been easy for him to have obtained the
desired information.
"outwardly Holbrook does not act
like an insane person. He appears to
be genuinely penItent, and he realizes
fully what he has done. He expressed
the hope that in view of his confession
he would be dealt with lightly. and he
also has promised to restore as much
OF the stolen stun as possible"

BILE with his foreleg, making vain ef-
forts to scratch in his food. The rake
was then put around one of the grapes,
and the handle extended toward jim

as before and jerked it, and the grape
rolled within. reach Of his paw. The

THE BLACK SEA.
lts Waters So Badly Poisoned Tha.
Life 10 Practically Impossible.

its Waters So Badly Poisoned That
Life 10 Practically Impossible.
Few persons, probably, other than
those engaged in the pursuit Of sci
ence, are aware that the Black sea
presents an interest of its own to the
zoologist and the geologist shared by
no other part Of the ocean at the pres
ent day.
Throughout the greater part of the
ocean the bottom is the dwelling place
of a number of creatures whose busf-
ness it is to consume the bodies of the
members of the surface fauna which
after death sink to the bottom. In the
Black sea, however, says the Field, ow-
ing to special geological events, such
scavengers are totally wanting over
the greater part of the bottom, so that
the carcasses of the creatures which
fall from above are left to decompose,
which they speedily do at the COM
taratively high temperature of the
water.
BY their decomposition two soluble
compounds, carbonate of ammonia and
sulphureted hydrogen, are developed
in enormous quantities, while no free
lime. except such as is introduced from
the Mediterranean, is left. The vol
ume Of sulphureted hydrogen is so
great as to poison the water from
the greatest depth 1,227 fathoms) to
within about hundred fathoms of the
surface to such a degree that life, ex.
cept for few bacteria, is absolutely
impossible.
The circumstance has double inter
est-frst, that it is absolutely unique
at the present day, and, secondly, that
it seems to offer an almost exact paral-
lei to the state of affairs that existed
at the inconceivably remote epoch
when the oldest known sedimentary
rocks were laid down as mud on the
ancient sea bottom.
