Illinois LynChineS.

The second lyncning of the Spring
field, Ills, riot occurred Saturday
night. A negro was strung up to a
telephone pole by mob of such pro-
portions that the firemen and police
who responded TO the first alarm were
unable to handle it. Re- enforcement
of troops were sent for andsdispersed
the mub. which was of such proper
tions as to be almost beyond control.
A white man was killed by heroes on
the outskirts of the city. More houses
were hurped and there were outbreaks
of varying proportions in various parts
of the city.
Just think of it, all this happened on
the other side of the Ohio river.
Shame on you Illinois people, to lynch
a negro just because he assaulted and
ravished white woman. This would
be horrible if it had happened in Ken
lucky. The Northern newspapers
should now cease their bowling about
Kentucky mobs. Southerners don t
go as far as the NOrtherners do. They
hang the culprits, but do not drive all
of the innocent nergoes out of the
South, and burn their homes. Maybe
the negroes will some day realize who
are their real friends.

Sid Baxter Company at the Grand

AT salary that is far in excess of
any or the vaudeville acts seen at the
theatre OF McMahan d Jackson, in this
city, the management has sec lred for
the entertainment of the patrons one
OF the most marvellous slack wire acts
that has ever been seen on the local
stage. Sid Baxter, whose reputation
as marvel on the slack wire extends
from coast to coast and from the GUT
to the Dominion line, direct from
kelth,s Fourteenth Street Theatre,
New York city, opened three night 5
en- 5agement at the Grand last night.
Baxter is the originator of going
through the frame of bicycle on the
Wire. The trick is a rather difficult
one while a wheel is resting on the
ground, and is therefore 1ar from be-
ing a cinch to performer while the
bicycle is balanced upon a wire. Ke
rides on the slack wire with severe |
kinds of bicycles, including unicycle,
and his juggling is also a marvellous
performance.
Several years ago, while touring the
Hawaiian Islands, upon a wager made
with Hiio parties Baxter agreed to
walk on slack wire across the crater
OF the great Hilo volcano, and at a
point that would place him about 600
feet above the crater, go through the
same performance that ne is now do
ing at the Grand. His towering ambi
tions were nipped in the bud by the
authorities who believed that he would
be over come by the dense sulphur
fumes arising, which would cost him
his life. and the construction of the
cable across the crater'S mouth was
stopped.
Mr.. Baxter is assisted in his per-
Torrance at the Grand by Miss Beat
rice Southwick, whose work is per-
feet. Miss SOutnwick is alive to the
requirements that are necessary to put
the Sid Baxter Company in the front
rank on the vaudeville stage, and her
PLEASING personally and fine work are
supplemented by the wearing Of some
smart costumes. not so elaborate as &c
give them a gaudy appearance, but
just enough to form a pleasing con-
trast with that Of the averaged vaude-
vile actress.
, Then there is another vaudeville fea-
true at the Grand-H. W. CrOwden,
singing and talking comedian-whose
efforts were mighty appreciated by
those present at the performance last
evening. The illustrated song was
also another feature. I NO sets of the
i latest motion pictures opened and con-
cluded one of the best and most enter
tanning bills that the Messrs. Nc
! Mahan & Jackson have ever presenref
to their patrons.

What has become Of the Committee
appointed by the Fi-cal Court to look
into the matter of building new
bridge over Stoner at the foot OF Main
street, in place of the old out of date
wooden structure that has been there

matter that should not be side tracke q

that it is not sidetracked. 1t there

MORE CAPITAL FOR
MOUNTAIN VIEW

Another company will soon be
! operating at Mountain View.
Through the efforts of John
Beatty the conflict between Beach,
Beatty and Wilson over the Uncle
Bill, Buzz Saw, Pack Saddle No.
1 and Polar Star claims has been
settled out of court. thus ending
all possibility of litigation in that
district. A new company is to be
incorporated at once to be known
as the Big a Gold Mining and
Milling company, with principal
Offices in Yerington, and develop
ment work will be begun within a
month on the group mentioned.
The new company will be in a po-
sition to open up their ground and
push work from the start. as the
district has now been proven and
there is little trouble in inter
esting men with money. The
property of the company parallels
the Big 20 on the north and end
lines the Inspiration ledge of the
Wilson Gold Mines company
which ought to make it about as
good as there is in the district.
Another good company operat-
ing will be a big boost to the
Mountain View district and from
what we know of the ground we
would predict that it means an
other shipper from that district in
side of six months.

The best news heard at Buck
skin in a long time was taken in
Thursday when it was learned
that a carload of machinery had
arrived at Wabuska for the leasers
of the Kennedy Consolidated.
A complete plant for the mine
has arrived and will soon be placed
and in running order. Only the
hoist and machinery for mining
has arrived, but the mill has been
ordered and will be up and run
ming before the first of December.
Buckskin had a bad set back,
like all other camps, last fall, but
it had merit like the other portions
of the Greater Yerington district
and could not be kept down, and
now the pay roll is on the increase
and great deal of development
work is going steadily on. 1t is
one of the permanent camps of
the State and next year will be
numbered among the steady pro-
ducers.

ACTIVITY AT OLD CAMBRIDGE
The evada-Mammoth Gold Mines
Company to Erect 50-Ton Mill

Very little has been said of late of the
old Cambridge district, one of the best
in the State, but steady development
work has been going on and now the
Nevada Mammoth Gold Mines company,
the Drummond company and the Golden
Glory Mining company are ready for
mills. The first plant will be a 50-ton
plant and will be erected soon at the old
mill site near the Gignoux ranch house.
The Nevada Mammoth company own 2S
claims in all, the Drummond company
owning four claims between the Nevada
Mammoth and the Golden Glory. The
work being done at present BY the Ne
vada- Mammoth is on the North Cam
bridge No. 2. where they are sinking an
incline shaft. They are now down 80
feet and have 2-foot vein that will av-
erage over SIS to the ton in gold and sill
yer. On their Uncle Sam claim they
have shaft 40 feet deep with drift at
the bottom Is feet each way; the vein
was IL inches wide at the surface and
nearly feet at the bottom-all milling
ore that will run better than $40.
The main Cambridge vein consists of
three claims. The principal work done
consisted of an incline shaft $50 feet deep
with levels at each 100 feet. The vein
is feet wide, between walls of granite.
Levels were run each way about 200 feet
at each 100 feet and the ore all stopped to
the surface. The ore was all milled at
the old mill and yielded the owners over
half million dollars. Along the vein
there are numerous openings, made by
leasers. An examination of these OPEN
ings reveals the fact that the ore is still
there, and, while it varies at different
points as to width, shows that 1t is of
high grade milling character.
Some development work has been
done on the Surprise group, which is the
properties farthest north and east of
the old Cambridge. The owners of the
property have been doing nothing but
development work since the money panic
last fall, but feel justified now in going
ahead and contracting for an up to date
mill for the treatment of their ores.
The old Cambridge has the strongest
and biggest ledges to be found in the
State and the pay ore is found almost at
grass roots.
The men in charge of the work for the
Nevada Mammoth company are z. F.
Rawson, president; F. H. Meyers, man.
age, and f. w. Davies, secretary and
treasurer. The Offices of the company
are here at Yerington and the property,
like all the properties in that district, is
always open for inspection.
More than one mining man has said
that the more he examined other dis
tricts the better he liked the Cambridge
district.

The Yerington Regulars made their
first appearance in uniform on Sunday
last and were defeated by Dayton. The
boys did fairly we'll until the ninth in
ming when they went up IN the air and
failed to come down until Dayton had
scored eight runs. During practice
Frank Downey, our first baseman, fell
and broke bone in his right arm. thus
necessitating change in the lineup.
Many were dissatisfied with Umpire Gal
lagher from Virginia City, but the home
team was outplayed anyway.
Barney Little showed marked improve
ment in his pitching and Dayton owes
much to his skill, DAYTON was especially
strong at short and second.
Frank Barnett was in his usual good
form and put up great game at second
for Yerington. Pitcher Johnson went
into the game with lame arm but pitched
a good game nevertheless.
The Yerington boys will keep right al
work and expect to have Gardnerville,
Virginia City, Reno and Bodie here fol
games in the near future.
The following is the official score by

Directed by Faithful Dos.

A whining dog directed search
ing party Sunday night over hill
and dale to the scene of the pathetic
suicide Of his master, Jacob Gaugu-
Ter, of Nerdilla Snyder county,
whose self murder may hasten the
death of his only child, 17-year-old
Francis, over whose illness he brood
ed constantly. This aged husband
man was too decrepit to gardner his
summer crops, neither could he
hire help, and as the plants wither
ed in the fields he and his feeble
wife did their best to nurse their
bed-bound son. This youth develop
ed typhoid fever recently, and Satur-
day the family was quarantined.
Weighed with trouble, Gaugler
shouldered his musket Sunday after
noon, called his dog and wandered
through the unharvested fields cross
ing mountain and reaching a corn
field. There he pointed the long
barreled gun at his temple but was
unable to reach the trigger; he used
a piece of wood to touch the catch.
The return of the dog alone caused
apprehension at the Gaugler home,
and when several neighbors arrived
the dog started off in the direction
from whence he came. They follow
ed him and were lead to the body.
Because of the quarantine the body
was taken to the home of Gaugler'S
brother, near by. The son suffered
severe relapse when made togniz-
ant of his fathers death.
