ACCIDENT TO
MISS Sheldon

Word has been received here of a
serious accident to Miss Carol Shei-
don, daughter of H. r. Sheldon, for
merly of this place and now of Man
haitian. Miss Sheldon is with her
mother at San Anselmo, and while
watching ball game there on Sun
day, one of the players let the bat
slip from his hands, and the missile
struck the young lady on the head
She was rendered unconscious, ard
had to be carried to her home near
by. The doctor who was called de-
clared that she had had a narrow
escape from a fracture of the skull,
and he feared that conclusion of the
brain might follow.
The injured girls sisters, Mrs.
Taylor, and Miss Dorothy Sheldon,
are living here, but neither of them
had heard anything from her mother
up to last night, and the presumption
is that Miss Carols injuries are not
as serious as was at first feared

CONSIDERING AN
EXTRA session
GOVERNOR SPARKS SENDS FOR
EXPRESSION OF OPINION
FROM MEMBERS.

Governor Sparks is considering the
ACCESSIBILITY of calling an extra ses-
sion of the legislature for the pur-
pose OF taking action in regard TO the
money situation. and the possible
postponement of the payment of
taxes. The chief executive has been
approached by number OF people
on the subject but does not seem
inclined to take IL upon himself Il
call the session. For this reason he
has addressed letters to all the leg
islators, asking their advice on the
matter. Following is a copy of the
letter:
To the Members of the Legislature
and the Citizens of the State:
There are many citizens of this
state, who have expressed desire to
me for special session of the legis-
lature for the purpose of giving re-
lief to taxpayers in the several coun.
ties of the state by extending pay
ment to such time as the legislature
may deem expedient.
We feel positive that the financial
condition of the state is such that no
serious Inconvenience would ensue
from reasonable postponement.
In former years the banking insti-
buttons of the state have met the de-
mands of the taxpayers by advancing
money in the way of loans or over
drafts. 1t appears to me now, that
under the clearing house system, the
banks would not do this. However,
| do not feel warranted in issuing
the.proclamatioa calling an extra ses-
sion of the legislature without the
endorsement of the legislators and
the masses of the taxpayers.
So far as the burden of the 10 per
cent penalty is concerned, the legis-
lature could remedy that by an ap-
preparation refunding the 10 per
cent penalty. The first payment of
taxes is delinquent December 2. |
do not know of any other reason why
a special session should be called at
this time. 49, EtN
Will you kindly endeavor to OBJ
tain the sentiments of your constitu-
ents concerning the effect of such ex-
tension upon the several counties in
financial way, and report to me at
your earliest convenience your own
judgment and also the popular feel
ing Of your county concerning the
proposition.
November IS, 1907
JOHN SPARKS, Governor.
Senator 7, L. Oddie has received
copy of the letter, and has inter-
viewed a number of the larger tax
payers of the county, and has found
them to be in favor of the calling OF
the extra session, and the passage OF
q bill contemplated by the governor

CLAY SET FREE
BY GRAND JURY
MAN ACCUSED OF NUMBERING
INDIAN is SET
FREE.

The grand jury yesterday set. free
Charles Clay, who was charged with
the murder of the Indian Little
Charley, at Pahrump. The killing
took place month or more ago,
and Mr.. Clay has been detained in
Jail, pending his hearing before The
inquisitors. The prisoner was his
own attorney, and his simple recita,
of the story of the shooting was suf-
ficient in the minds of the jury to
give him his liberty.
His story was to the effect that he
had gone to Pahrump to buy saddle
of the Indians, and when he arrived
there he found that a number Of
them were drunk, having just re-
turned from pow WOW on the Col
orado. He broke his leg some months
ago, and carried himself with some
difficulty. While he was stopping
the Indian jumped ON his back, and
while this one held him another tried
to find him with a knife. Clay put
his pistol under his arm and fired.
He fired second time, striking his
assailant, but at that had to shake
him off his back. The Indian died
next morning, and his relatives fol-
lowed Clay, but he kept them off
with his weapons until Deputy Sher-
iff Casey overlook him, and he sub
mitted to arrest on the understand
ing that Casey send the Indians
back. which was done. Clay was
held to answer by the justice of the
peace at Rhyolite.

"BORAX" SMITH ROAD.

BY referring to our news columns
today it will be seen that through
service on Rhyolite's third railroad
will commence on the 25th inst, and
another spoke has been added to the
prosperity wheel of the metropolis Of
the Bullfrog district
When we look over what has been
accomplished during the short
months of the districts existence. the
results attained are a little short of
phenomenal.
1t was about two years and five
months ago that "Borax'' Smith
started building railroad out of Las
Vegas for the borax mines and the
Bullfrog district. Difference over
rats fol. supplies between him and
the Salt Lake road Nused suspen-
sion of work after twelve miles of
road had been graded, and he moved
his outfit.to Ludlow on the Santa Fe
and started the Tonopah and Tide
water, which was completed into the
district two weeks ago.
No mining camp ever discovered
has been so rapidly supplied with
transportation facilities as the Bull
frog and IT will be many years before
one will be.
The last spoke can now be put in
the prosperity wheel of Rhyolite by
building good custom mill. There's
ore in plenty and it only needs re-
duction plant to extract the values.

NAMES COMMITTEE
ON EXAMINATION
PRESIDENT CROCKER OF TONO-
PAN MANHATTAN COMMIT
TEE NAMES APPOINTEEs.

The Tonopah-Manhattan Promo
ton committee met last night, Presi-
dent Crocker in the chair, James
Force, secretary.
President Croker announced the
committee on examination and in
vestigation which he was empowered
to name some meetings ago. The
committee is as follows:
Messrs. l.. l.. Mushett, c. H. Nc
Intosh, Bert l.. Smith, j. S. Daveler,
Letson Ballet. James began and
Eugene Howell.
w. w. Booth of the finance COM
mittee reported that the committee
had been in touch with a number Of
people in Tonopah and had received
very encouraging assurances of sup
port, and had already made some
collections. He said that their was
better feeling in the city regarding
finances, and that conditions were
improving.
IL IL IIlS dIISAtIOn
of the committee to the fact that it
would be necessary to get out some
literature regarding the properties,
as there had been great number of
inquiries directed to the secretary of
the committee and to that of the
committee at Manhattan There had
been number of replies to the ques-
lions framed by the committee as to
the status of the properties, and Mr..
Mushett was of the opinion that this
information should be embraced in
a booklet which could be sent out in
reply to the inquiries.
There was some discussion as to
the character of the literature and
suggestions were made by c. +. Blu
menthal, w. w. Booth and J. S.
Daveler, some of which will be acted
upon later.
copy of resolution passed by
the Manhattan committee was re-
ceived, which favored the call of an
extra session of the legislature for
the purpose of alternating the finan-
cial situation. Adjournment was
taken until next Wednesday night.

signing
The AGREEMENT
DIRECTORS on RANK FOLLOW IN
THE WAKE or PREsI-
DENT RICKEY.

The signing OF the agreement of
the State Bank and Trust company Is
going ahead. and the days when the
bank will reopen are growing less.
President T. d. Hickey has pledged
his private fortune 10 the payment
of the depositors. and now 1t is stat
ed. upon what seems to be good
authority that the directors of the
bank have followed in the wake of
Mr. Hickey, and have also pledged
their fortunes for the same purpose
The directors. are DR.. S. l.. Lee, State
Senator j.. p. Woodbury., Wills
Brougher. G. w. Mapes, Alfred Liv-
ingston, C. T. Bender, p. II. Peter
son and George Meyers. With all
these men behind the bank with their
individual fortunes, there is little
chance of the depositors losing any
money.
1t is understood that the Nye and
Ormsby bank, which is pursuing the
same policy as the other, is succeed
ing in having the agreement signed
up by the depositors. Neither bank is
prepared to say when it's doors shall
open, and that will depend upon thu
celebrity with which the. depositors
sign up.
Notwithstanding that both the
State Bank and Trust company and
the Nye and Ormsby have their doors
closed, still their depositors have
been able to have some use of their
funds. There are people here who are
willing to accept checks on the banks
if they can have the assurance that
the funds are in the bank. This as
surance will be given by the banks
upon application, and this is helping
some. The State Bank is checking
off the amounts that are reported,
and the man who accepts checks
waits for the money instead of the
depositor.

GOLD CRATER
IS LOOMING UP
MANHATTAN PROPERTY HAS
TONS OF MILLING
ORR.

Hardly a days goes by without
bringing something good in the way
OF news from Manhattan. L. l..
Mushett adds to the good fortune of
the camp in the way OF development
in the Gold Crater, in which he and
w. S. Johnson and others are inter-
ested.
Mr.. Mushett has two assays, which
upon their face do not look very big,
or. convey their Importance. They
are both from the Gold Crater. One
goes $1S.64. This was taken from
shaft which has been sunk to a
dept hof fifty-five feet, and was then
discontinued.
The depth from which this as
say was taken was between fifteen
and twenty-five feet" said Mr.. Mus
hett. "and this is as far as we can
with safety go down into the shaft.
The assay was taken from seventy
tie pounds Of rock taken from var
ious places in the shaft for the pur-
pose of getting an average milling
value. We have at least, 100, 900
tons of the rock, and we are going
to ship it to the Chapman mill as
soon as that plant is ready for oper-
alton. This is not very big show
ing, but it is only one of many to be
found in Manhattan. 1t means ready
money, and that is what we are look
in gfor. AS soon as the mills are in
operation there will be lots of this
kind of rock reduced, for it will cost
less than 50 to mill and haul it, and
there are thousands of tons on tha
dump. A profit of $40 ton is good
in any country.
THE other assay runs something
ever $11 ton. We have eighteen
feet of this, and we have by no means
found the good values. The ledge is
a continuation Of the Stray Dog
and Union No. vein. We are down
ninety feet, and will sink to depth
of $50 feet, at which depth we ex-
pect to encounter the main ledge.
We have gasoline hoist and one of
the finest gallows frames in the coun-
try. It is thirty-six feet in height,
and is heavy enough for 100-horse-
power hoist. We are there for PEI
manent business, and are not afraid
of the future. Is

DARRAGH.

Frank Darragh, an engineer at the
Mizpah mine, will be a passenger on
this mornings, train, his destination
being Eureka, California, where he
is to be married on Thanksgiving
day to Mrs. Elsa Littlefeld.
A pretty romance lies behind the
engagement. Mr.. Darragh was
stricken with pneuomnia, and was
taken to the Miners hospital. Mrs.
Littlefield was a nurse at the hos
pital, and fate willed it that she
should have charge of Mr.. Darragh' S
case. She was unremitting in her
attention, and her nursing was more
than half the battle. The patient
came through his illness all right,
but pneumonia was succeeded by an
affection of the heart. When he left
the hospital he was the affianced
husband of his pretty nurse.
Mrs. Littlefield left shortly after
ward for her home in Eureka, Cali
fornia, with the promise of her be-
trothed to follow soon, and with the
day Of their wedding set for the
twenty-eighth of this month So Mr..
Darragh leaves this morning to cross
the desert and scale the mountains.
then to be tossed upon the tempestu-
Gus seas, to finally sail into the port
of happiness across the Humboldt
bar.

New York, Oct. 1S.-Universalists
from all over the country are In
New York today in attendance Mt
the biennial session OF the general
coycntiou of the denomination. A big
meeting of the laymen and woman's
missionary meeting Will be features
of the convention. The report of
the secretary shows that the denom-

900, the income of which is used
to support home and froeign mis-
slons.
Among other reports received was
n highly favorable one from the Jap
ahese mission, which was established
fifteen years ago. The Universalist
faith has proved particularly attrac-
tive to the upper class and educa-
ted Japanese, and the denomination
is growing by leaps and bounds in
the nowery kingdom. II supports

are supplied for the most part by
