CELEBRATED PLAY TO BE
GIVEN AT OPERA HOUSE

''Side Tracked with Hooligan,
made famous by the comic newspapers,
has been transferred to the stage and
will be given a representation on We'd
nesday October 18th, at the Nixon
Opera House. 1t is a comedy drama
and has been vitalized by Sam Morris
in highly satisfactory manner; in fact
it is asserted that Mr.. Morris stage YER
sion of Hooligan and his adventures is
one of the most able, laughable and in
teresting plays seen in many day, and
one that would score anywhere even If
the hero of the cartoons were not the
central figure. A splendid company OF
comedians, singers and specialties arc
with Hooligan, and the entire press
wherever they have appeared are unan-
imous in declaring Hooligan and his
coterie of funmakers an emphatic hit.

ALASKA GOLD PRODUCTION
FOE THE YEAR 1908
Especial Correspondence.)

Especial Correspondence
SEATTLE, Oct. s.-'The government.
assay Office in Seattle handles about 6O
per cent of the total gold production Of
Alaskka and Yukon, the balance being
shipped directly to the San Francisco
and Philadelphia mints or to the Can-
adian mint. The percentage sent to
Seattle does not vary one per cent in
the different years and the receipts are
therefore an excellent barometer of the
gold production. The receipts for the
first eight months Of 1905 were
$40, ,6s2, ,249 as compared with $s, ,s7a
for the same period in 1907. In the
last five years the receipts during Sep
tember and October have averaged
So 100000, and tor November and De-
cember about $950,000 each. These
averages will probably be exceedcf
fully Is per cent this year, making the
total receipts for 1908 the sum o.
$ls,567 ,249. During the Alaska-Yukon
Pacific exposition next year, the I. :.
assay office will maintain branch on
the grounds.

JUDGE ORR HOLDS
PROCEEDINGS NULL AND VOID
Attorney Warren Rescues Imprisoned
Man from Chain Gang, where He
Had Already Served 18 Days

Ira Harrison, the negro sentenced to
fifty days Imprisonment for refusing
to answer questions at the coroner s
inquest on the body of Jim Nichols,
was discharged from custody, Thurs
day, by Judge Orr, on writ of habess
corpus applied for by Attorney War
rem, acting on behalf of defendant.
The petitioner introduced no testi-
mony, relying solely upon the defecss
in the Judgment and commitment. The
state was represented by Attorney
Robins, who acting as coroner, commit
ted the man to jail. Wlrile much tes-
timony was introduced by the state,
the defendant, as above stated, intro
duced only the record in the case.
The court said that, while the coro-
ner had the authority to commit wit
ness for contempt, he failed to legally
exercise that prerogative, and that sucn
failure was fatal. His Honor accord
ingly held the record, judgment and
commitment to be absolutely void and
of no effect, and ordered the prisoner
released.
1t will be remembered that at the
coroner's inquest held on the body of
James Nichols, on September Is, Har-
rison, on the advice of Attorney War
ren, who was looking after his inte,-
ests, refused to testify, stating as his
reson that husband could not be COM
PEELED to testify against his wife, or
vice versa, unless both agreed. In
this case the wife was willing to have
her husband testify, but Harrison him
self obpected. For his obduracy h.
was sentenced to so days in the county
Jail. Being without the necessary
funds to send an attorney to Reno, t.
sue out a writ of habeas corpus, Has.
rison was obliged to take his place tn
the chain gang until court opened IN
Nlnnemuccd. AS result, dt tne tiIle
of his release he had served about Ia
days of his sentence, and would have
served it all had it not been for the
\ interest taken in the case by Attorney
/ Warren, whose indignation was
aroused, and whose sense of fair play
was outraged by the evident injustice
of the proceeding.
Harrison has lived at this place for
about a year, and during nearly all
that time has been in the employ of 9.
H. Longer, a Western Pacific con-
tractor, who gives him an excellent
character as a hard working and in
dustrious man.
