CARSON CITY. Deputy q. s. Mar
shall Mack left for Goldield to escort
to Virginia City, where they will have
their hearing before Commissioner
Emory j. Smith, the two counterfeiters
arrested in Goldfeld last week. 1t APP
pears federal prisoners cannot be
boarded in this city for the price that is
paid in Virginia City, hence the action
of taking the prisoners to that place.
Five witnesses will be brought with the
prisoners and Marshal Mack will swear
in one of the witnesses, who is a deputy
sheriff, to assist him in bringing the
prisoners to Virginia.
FALLON. For a short time last Fri
day morning about 4 o'clock, the de-
struction by fire of the entire business
section of Fallon looked certain. Fire
started from a coffee urn in the restau-
rant in the rear of the Goldfield Club
saloon and the flames spread with great
rapidity and only the presence of mind
and cool h~eadedness of those present
saved the town.
The flames under the coffee urn were
high and in some manner caught the
wall paper and spread rapidly and in a
half minute the entire side of the room
and a good part of the ceiling was on
fire. Water was close at hand and a
few buckets e%xtinguished the flames
before they reached much Roadway. At
this time the wind was blowing con
siderable and once the flames had gained
the outside it would have been impos-
sible to have saved the frame buildings
on Main street.
RENO. Thomas B. Hickey, late presi-
dent of the defunct State Bank &
Trust company, is about to be pro-
ceeded against in the United States
circuit court as a recalcitrant witness.
Papers are in preparation for the issu-
ance of a writ of attachment for his
person with a view to compelling his
presence and testimony as q witness IN
the case of the Pacific Livestock COM
pany, as successor to Miller and Lux VS..
Thomas B. Hickey and some $50 others
living il Mason and Smith valleys and
Sweetwater.
RENO. The work of building the
Nevada, California and Oregon railroad
from Reno to Alturas, begun nearly %
years ago, was formally completed, and
for the first time a train pulled into
Quincy, the county seat of Plumas
county, California.
For years the line extended to q
point about so miles this side of Al
turas. Obstacles have since hindered
the work from that point.

VIRGINIA CITY. That George
Kuhn, a prominent Virginia City un-
dertaker, was determined to end his
life when he selected his casket and
shroud a month ago, was brought to
light when it was learned that he CON-
mitted an act which he knew would re-
suit in certain death. He was just re-
covering from a severe attack of ty-
phoid-fever and had eaten rothing sub
s~tantial for days. His physicians and
nurses warned him against taking sub
stantial food.
In the face Of this he arranged for a
big banquet for himself, the menu con-
sisting Of rich salads and entrees, in
GLIDING wine. As a climax he ordered
two large crabs. He ate everything and
went to bed. The following day he
died, his final words being an order that
his remains be cared for by a Reno un-
dertaker and not entrusted to his bust
ness rivals on the Comstock.
ELKO. The Western Pacific Railway
company completed the Flower Lake
tunnel, which cuts under the Pequop
mountains in Elko county. The tunnel,
which is on the main line of the West
ern Pacific is 5,657 feet in length.
Almost the entire distance is through
limestone, and the work of drilling it
through the mountain consumed twenty
one months.
ELY. More than fifty trainmen
working on the ore trains known as the
"dinky trains'' used to carry the ore
from the mines at Copper Flat to the
big ore cars carrying the ore to the
shelters, who declared a strike on Sun
day for higher wages, still refuse to GO
to work, and since that time all work at
Copper Flat, except in the shelters has
been tied up. Two members of each of
the branches of the striking trainmen
have formed a committee and are now
comforting with Mr.. Lakeman, the man
ager of the smelter, and it is believed
that an agreement will soon be reached
which will result in the opening up of
the mines met more. If the men are
not able to secure some concessions and
reach an agreement with the manager
of the smelter it is possible that the
strike will assume larger proportions,
but it is not believed that this will oc-
eur.

VIRGINIA CITY. Another chapter
was added to the Ventura assinelli
feud at Dayton, and Pete Cassinelli lies
in bed with two serious wounds, while
Mrs. Lawrence Ventura occupies a cell
in the county Jail.
For several years the Cassinelli's and
| Venturi's have been having trouble
over land on the Carson river and about
two years ago Pat Ventura hit CASH
nelli over the head with a shovel, in
ficting a wound which nearly caused
his death.
RAWHIDE. Walter Gocpp was
killed by being thrown from a wagon on
returning from Lodi. His skull was
badly fractured in the fall.
Goepp wen out to Lodi about a week
ago, accompanied by Ed I. Grady, the
stock broker, and Frank Carpenter, to
represent some mining properties near
Lodi belonging to Bert Gillespie and
Others. Upon completion of the work
they were to receive a one-half interest.
They had concluded their contract
Tuesday and started for Rawhide to
spend Thanksgiving among relatives and
friends.

SPARKS. The S. p. instruction car
arrived in Sparks where it will remain
for several days. Every employe in the
operating service of the company has
to 90 before the official in charge for
instruction in train rules and air-brake
usages.
The education that the employees re-
ceive through this schooling method is
of inealeulable value.

WONDER. Affairs at the Wonder
Bank and Trust company are looking
rather gloomy for depositors in this de-
funct money changing institution. From
figures obtained from +. w. Westmeyer,
the total assets of the concern amount
to less than $1,000, and the liabilities
at the time the bank ceased business
amounted to $2o,5s6.s3. At the time
of the closing of the bank there was
said to be about $1,000 in cash in the
safe of the concern. Added to this
cash, according to Mr.. Westmeyer' 8
figures, there are bills receivable
amounting to $470.75; due from other
banks $4,000; real estate, assumed to
be worth $4,000. From these assets are
to be taken all the expenses of closing
up the business.

Ninth When Three Hits
Run 1t Over.

With the score standing : to in
favor OF Fairmont with two men out
and a charleroi batter facing Carlisle
with two strikes called on him, the
game at Traction Park. Monongah,

grandstand thought was over sudden-
" assumed another aspect, ran on
until the eleventh. when the visitors
scored a couple more.
1t was hard game to lose.
Fairmont scored two in the third
and Charleroi one. Carlisle was
steady and had every thing going his
own way until Urban came up in the
ninth. Urban singled, went to sec
ond on Daily's single and home on
plump little hit by Heinz, thus tying
the score. In the tenth the visitors
were unable to do anything but In
the next inning cosgroye and o'Hara
came in. The score:

However, the Scotties did not stop
here but annexed another just to be
little better fortified II anything
should happen or should the enemy
become unruly or antagonlstic.
Loses Equilibrium.
Humphries therefore, who had TAX
en- second on the throw in, went to
third when McAYoy lost his equill-
brlum going after Ferguson's tap
which was rolling his way, and all
hands were safe. Ferguson stole
second and when O'Connor laid him
self upon the altar by fly to ]. Daw-
son. HUMPHREYS scored, making it
three all told. James ended the mis-
cry going out. McGlnty to Conoway.
In the fourth the Scotties got their
fourth and last run. Washer was
soaked In the blouse and sacrificed to
second by Conavery. from where he
scored when McKenna drove the
sphere to right for a single.
Three Features.
This game, like all others. had its
features, there being about three
worth mentioning. HUMPHREYS pitch
ing was one and another almost as
great but not as detrimental as
HUMPHREYS pitching, was a bare
handed stop by McAyoy in the sixth
inning of terrible smack from
Washers bat Mack never moved, in
fact he didn't have time as the ball
was hit right at his feet. Mack
made quick stab with his meat hand
with the result that when upon ex-
animation OF his five digits he found
the ball safely lodged therein. He
had taken it on the first bounce, so
he promptly heaved 1t to Conoway,
completing the out.
A Hot Double.
In the seventh with out down and
Klaybor and Slevin occupying first
and second, Humphries landed a
swift one at Drumm, which hit the
manager on the shins, caroning off
to NcGinty who was on second base
waiting. for Drumm's shrow. Imag-
inc Mack's surprise when instead of
taking a nice throw from Drumm he
received the ball just right for a
heave to Conoway for double, from
Drumm's shins.

PuIIiam ReioiCes Over the Good
Behavior of Players in Ma
tional League This Season

NEW YORK, June 22-President
Pullman of the National league is
not at all purturbed over the little
trouble he Is having with Manager
McGraw, of the Giants, and the lit
tie cubby hole where "Muggsy" hides
and directs the movement OF his
team whenever he Is decorated with
the order of the Tin Can.
May Abolish Burrow.
The only angle of these gopher tao
tics of Manager McGraw that makes
the National league head peevish. is
the fact that the existence of such a
refuge Is possible in the conduct OF
the great national game. 1t reflects
no dignity upon the sport or its pro-
motors to have such condition ex-
listing. and 1t would not be surprising
to see some action taken at the next
meeting OF the National league look
ing toward the abolition OF Me-
Graw's burrow.

Town Lost by Bit Of
Stupid Playing.

scoTTDALE. Pa. June 22-scott-
dale wound up disastrous week by
being shut out by Clarksburg satur-
day afternoon. The game was
thrown away by a bit Of stupid MAY
ing in the fourth. Clark opened the
inning with single and went 10
second on short single by conoway.
Drumm sacrificed, both men moving
up. Grlbben hit fly to McKenna.
and the latter with plenty of dime to
double Conoway at second threw TO
the plate too late to prevent clarl,
from scoring and allowing conoway
to get to third. McAvoy made the
visitors third and last hit, scoring
Conoway. At no other time did
Clarksburg have chance 10 score.
The locals never had a look-tn. only
five men reaching first, two of them

which were difficult.

FEW VIOLATIONS
OF LEAGUE RULES
Pence and Good WIN

Its been a case of peace on earth
and good Will toward most men since
the present season opened" said Pres
ident Pullman. There have been so
few banishments by the umpires that
there are times when can't realize
that the baseball season Is on until
/ look at the scores. Usually by this
time of the year our books are pref
" well decorated with records of
players chased or suspended: but up
to the present time the pages are
extraordinarily short on that sort of
literature.
Only One Reason.
There is only one reason for this
falling off in the punishment of play
ers. and that is that players are doing
less and less each year for which to
be punished. The majority OF them
realize that there is to be nothing
gained by this everlasting fight
against authority. and so they keep
quiet, or as quiet as they can.
without going back to the records
I'll venture TO say we have not had
half the trouble we had up to this
same date last year. And next year
there is going to be even less"
