ing that a man had been found dead in
his bed at the Western Pacific camp ut
Ryndon yesterday afternoon. He and
Undertaken Keyser went to Ryndon
this morning to inquire into the mans
death and to bring the remains to Elko.
The inquest resulted in verdict by the
jury that the mans name was unknown

heart failure caused by excessive use of
liquor and that he was about 35 years
of age. ..
The only paper found on him was a
letter from y child at Mackay, Idaho,
addressed to Dear Elijah" The en-
velope in which the letter was sent was
not found.
The man had been at the camp only
two or three days and had not gone to

Reno expects to carry the fight against
gambling in the state to the coming
legislature and preparations are already
being made to do so by making a sort
of state organization. Feelers are out
to ascertain the sentiment among the
legislators of the coming session and
before the legislature convenes it is safe
to presume that both the anti's and the
gamblers will have fine line on the
situation and be able to tell what the
outcome of the fight will be. 1t is safe
to presume that the next legislature
will have to pass on race-track

A. Hint to Ministers

A clergyman in neighboring town
had been much annoyed by the way
members of the congregation had of
looking around to take stock of late
corners. After enduring it for some
time he said on entering the reading
desk one Sunday: Brethren, 1 regret
to SEQ that your attention is called
away from your religious duties by
your natural desire to see who comes
in behind you. I propose henceforth
to save you the trouble by manning
each person who may enter, and hope
that the services will then be allowed
to proceed without interruption" He
then began: Dearly beloved" but
paused half way, to interlopate, "Mr.
Stubbins with his wife and daughter. 4"
Mr.. Stubb!ns looked rather surprised,
but the minister with perfect gravity
resumed his exhortation. Presently
he again paused: "'Mr Curtis and
William Diggle." The abashed con-
gregation kept. their eyes studiously on
their books. The services continued
IN the most orderly manner, the par
son interrupting himself every now and
then to name some newcomer At last

gravity: Mrs. Symons in new bon

Says Silver Will Advance

Sir Moreton Frewen, the leading
authority on bimetallism and a close
student of conditions, expresses a
decided opinion that silver will advance
in the near future. In an interview in
the Denver Times, lie says:
1T will not be at all surprising to me
if the price of silver should make Il con-
siderable jump along about the first of
January.
Here's what 1 mean," continued Mr..
Frewen, Because of the continuous
decline of the price of silver the trade of
the United States with Asia and other
countries of the Far East has dropped
down to practically nothing, and the
people of these countries have made it
known that they can no longer continue
commercial relations because of the I'M
precedented low price of silver.
II had not expected any further
silver agitation during my lifetime, but
now it is plain that the Governmental
authorities of the United States must
at the coming meeting of your congress,
do something THAT will bring about the
renewal of the trade that has been lost
and this can be accomplished only by
measures that will result in the raising
of the valve of silver"
