The Copper Basin Mining company
at Bald Mountain, of which Mrs. Ella
Rawles Reader OF New York, the emf
nent oma financier, is the directing
force, must make the final payment
today on the holdings which they ac-
quired from the Skaggs brothers OF
Elko, for $1,000 or that copper
property will revert to the original
owners. According TO Frank Wolf OF
Ely, who returned from Bald Noun
tain this afternoon, it is extremely
doubtful whether Mrs. Reader aud her
associates will turn over the last pay
ment on the Copper Basin group.
Several payments have already been
received by the 'sksggs brothers, but
the last payment will amount to over
$100.000.-Ely Expositor.

Rev. Lloyd b. Thomas OF Battle
Mountain and Rev. Harry r. Gray,
Mis-ionary-at-large, spent several days
in Round Mountain last week. The

thorough canvas OF the town decided
that rs yet the time was not ripe to
go ahead with any definite plans ow-
ing 70 the still limited number oi

n of our citizens from j. J. Ratti-
gan, one of the purchasers of the

ground when active operations will at
once be commenced on the pr operty.

associates have secured q valuable
property and that it will be no great

CASES ARE CONTINUED.
Lauder Men Will Again Appear at Bar
November l4th.

Upon the request OF the attorneys
for Judge Breen the Supreme Court
last Monday continued the hearing
in the contempt ard disbarment pro-
ceedings until the 14th OF November.
The hearing OF A.. J. Maestretti on
similar charges was continued to the
same date.
The attorneys for the Lander coun-
ty Judge urged that he was now en-
gagged in hearing a lengthy cast at
Reno and would be compelled to re-
main there for some time and further
that ON the 22d OF the month he ex-
pected to convene a term of the Lam
der District Court. The attorneys for
the judge also stated that they were
busy and would be so for several
weeks. After hearing these things
the Court decided to grant the mo-
ton for continuance and according
the hearing was set for November
l4th.
District Attorney Maestretti filed
an answer several days ago in the SUI
preme Court in which he states that
he is willing to appear at any time
and undergo any punishment the Su-
preme Court meets to him. In his
answer he states that the theory OF
the Dwyer case as presented BY him
in the lower court was not that given
by the Supreme Court but that he in
troduced certain evidence merely To
strengthen his case. He ssys that he
did not talk the Supreme Court de-
cision over with Judge Breen and that
when they entered the court room
they had no understanding as to "A
concerted attack on the supreme tri-
bunal. Further, that he did not
know that the remarks made in the
Court that day were to be spread on
the records Of the Court until after
they we're completed and Judge Breen
ordered them SO spread. He says that
the matter is unfortunate and re-
gretable and that he is willing to do
anything that the Supreme Court may
specify but he hopes that the body
will not see fit to disbar him.-Carson

 Heaven forbidI
 Don't you like herr" she asked again with that note of wistfulnesa which this time included an accent of pity for Miss Ellery. T love herp' he declared with a whimsical exaggeration that he hoped would dispose of Miss Eflery finally. That's why wouldn't have all the young ladies I know made after her pattern, you sec"
 She started at his words, and sud- denly the radiance seemed to die out of her face, leaving it mournful.
 "You-you love herv' she said falter- ingly.
 Of course love her! The differ- ence between you and Miss Ellery," he went on, following the idea in his own mind and not seeing in the dimness the pallid hopelessness that had como to her face, Ifs that Miss Ellery thinks she's complex, but isn't, and you think you're simple, but aren't And the most mysterious thing about you is that you hadn't noticed 1t yourself that you were mysterious, I mean. E don't see how it escaped you"
 She did not answer him.
 "For instance, why are you so differg ent from Ollie when you two have had the same rearing?"
 She swallowed hard and seemed td make an effort to speak to him.
 "Is that mystery?" she said. But it is easily explained. We are not of the same parentage."
 Do you know anything of your owu parentsT'
 There was scarcely perceptible hesa itation before she answered.
 "No." Her voice sounded remote, as. though she shrank from his questionA ing.
 "That in itself is strange, isn't it?aI he ventured, hesitating to force hiH Investigations against her evident reJ iuctance, but his keen curiosity getting the better of his finer feeling.
 T suppose it is," she answered, he's voice subdued, her eyes downcast.
 Do MT. and Mrs. Morningstar known nothing about your parents?" |
 q don't know"
 "But have you never asked themY
 q have never discussed it witM them."
 His questions agitated her, he sawt and he didn't believe she was being; candid with him, so he reluctantly dropped them. He remained silent toi give her chance to tell him why she sought him here at an hour when all the rest of the family were abed.

 "So she thinks she's going to bowl me over just as soon as come with in her range" he unused. What will be the effect on her, I wonder, when she discovers she's been discussing me like that in my own presence? Their plane is so far below that of ourselves, Daisy, that they scarcely catch the sound of our voices when we speak,"
 A short laugh escaped him, which reused Mrs. Morningstar to speech.
 T make no doubt, Doc" she said, working buslly while she talked, "that you kin understand them girls when they speak all them high words to each other. Ain't? It beats me what they're conwersin' about together. Still when they speak so educated that way just like readn' out of the newspa- per or whatever"
 T think they don't always under- stand themselves, Mrs. Morningstar."
 Now, think! Poll parrots, too, they don't know what they're sayin' neI. ther. And educated peoples the same," she repeated in surprise
 kinross at this moment caught glimpse through the window of Eu- nice alone in the kitchen.
 Here's my chance" he thought, ris. ing from the porch steps.
 Say, Doc" Mrs. Morningstar stop. ped him, ''if them girls ever finds out the joke you're playin' on 'em, pre- tendin' to be common like us when you're as tony as theirselves, make no doubt they won't like it, Doc"
 T agree with you, Mrs. Morning star. They won't like it."
 "Supposin' they meet you in town there some time in your dude cloes" she said apprehensively. ITO be sure, there's so many that lives in town it ain't likely you will run across each other"
 'It's not merely likely, Mrs. Morn ingstar. They simply can't escape me-"
 "Not?' she cried. Well, I guess you'll feel pretty cheap"
 "It is they who will feel inexpensive, Mrs. Morningstar. They'll be ready to sell themselves for half price on the bargain counterr'
 He left her to puzzle over the prob lem as he turned away and went into the kitchen.
 But the moments delay had lost him his chance. Eunice had left the room by one door just as he was entering by the other.

''It's the only thing I have wanted ever since last night"

'Tt's the only thing have wanted ever since last night"
 Since last night"
 "Yes, since last night-naturally."
 "Is it." she asked. that you are con cerned in this controversy about Miss Ellery's frock?"
 "No"-he repressed smile-"it is no about Miss Ellery's frock wanted tc talk to you" It was evident that the episode of the frock had been, to her mind, the only notable one of the previous evening.
 Let us sit down." he repeated. Her face lighted up as she obeyed him with a brightness that transform ed it. He marveled why she should in one moment shrink from him and falter in painful shyness and the next be radiant with pleasure. To him the reason for the transformation was not apparent.
 What made you say you don't count?" he began as he seated himself beside her.
 You said so-that evening-by the fence"
 When said you didn't annoy me? But didn't mean that!"
 'What did you mean then" The question seemed to spring from her without her volition.
 What had he meant, indeed?
 T suppose" he speculated, T meant that you interest me too much to an. noy me-" And the young ladies-you avoid them because they don't interest you"
 Was there note of eagerness in her wistful voice? And to think that she should volunteer to ask him questionsl If he could make her feel more at ease with him, perhaps he could get her to talk to him of herself. His pulse bounded with pleasure in anticipation of his quest of her secret, and he felt thrill of satisfaction in his present isolation with her.
 T cant say they don't interest me. Everybody interests me, even Ollie, even Abev'
 He looked at her narrowly as he spoke her lovers name with this inti- nation of his insignificance. He could not see whether or not it disturbed her.
 But" he went on, Itthere are de- grees of interest Noneiof them have mystery about them"
 Her face as she listened to him ex- pressed anxious attention, like one who tries to follow foreign tongue, and she seemed to weigh for a moment all that he said before she answered.
 But neither have I a mystery about me-" she replied wonderingly. "A mys- teryT'
 Haven't you?" he questioned grave ly in the tone of one reproving a child for telling fib.
