 Landed In Jail

Judge Mcfarland yesterday issued & warrant for a Mexican named Rod r!quez, charged with stealing a horse from John Rock. The Mexican was arrested at Fairbank and brought back today and landed in jail.

The Mexican was profuse in apologies and explanations, and while MT Rock stepped into his store to arrange ior some one to take the animal back to the stable, the Mexican took advan- tage of the opportunity aud hurTiedly mounted again. and was last seen speeding toward Fsirbsnk He was arrested at that point last night and brought back, while his chances for an enforced stay in durance vile are favorable.

Depression
Is Ended

Better times are ahead OF the en-
plovees of the different departments
of the Southern Pacific company.
The general cessation OF work which
has been in effect for the past month
or SO is believed will now soon be at
an end.
Although not officially announced
il is believed that the general offices
have now completed their appropria-
tons for the coming month and that
provision has been made to resume
work at Sparks on a much larger
plan than any time this year. This
means that several hundred men now
idle will be nut to work. The order
10 resume is expected to come ne
fore the end of the week and VIII
| probably be to begin work the latter
part of the week or early next week
! The cost of operating the differen
departments at Sparks have average
until the last few weeks in the neigh
horhood of s15O.oOO a month. AS l
is now the figures will not reach nal
that sum.

Strike at
Steamboat

G.. G. Degman arrived from Steam
boat Springs last night with samples
taken from rich find of graphite he
made near that place. The samples
are from a vein five feet in width
and traceable on the surface foi a
distance OF 1000 feet or more.
Experts who have examined the
samples pronounce them an excellent
grade of graphite.
The deposit is within 800 feet OF
the railroad and is of easy access. 1t
is important for WashOe County III

will undoubtedly resul in the estab-
