A FAINT RAY
OF HOPE REMAINS
FOR DEPOSITORS

Once more from the dark clouds
OF ruin that have hung over the
State Bank and Trust company
for the past six months, there APP
pears a faint ray of light that may
develop into last salvation for
the depositors. AT a meeting held
in Carson Wednesday by the di-
reetors of the defunct institution,
1. b. Hickey again offered to put
800 a share far 900 shares, pro-
vided that the other stockholders
would take over the remaining
1000 shares at the same rate.
Almost all of the directors have
agreed to cover their holding at
that rate. 1t is to be hoped that
bank officials will accomplish this,
thereby resulting in an early re-
sumption OF the banks business.
The question will be definitely set
tied at meeting to be held in
Carson within the next few days.

development work as been done.
As it is fine lodges that have been
uncovered near the surface and
assays from So to $40 per ton.
From the amount of development
work SO far done, it is evident that
the entire mountain where the
property is located is a et-work of
Lodges.
A limited amount of stock will
be sold for the purpose of taking
out ore and properly equiping "a
mill for the reduction of the free
milling ores. The first allotment
of stock will be sold for 10 cents
per share, and is being gebbled
up by local people.

Neqv System
is Used.

We learn from II. Godiecke of a
new method adopted by several
Italians that are getting out cord
wood from the mountains west of
Jacks Valley. Heretofore the
problem of getting out wood from
the rough sections has always been
an agravating and expensive opera
tion. Different methods have been
used in the past such as "sledding'
but pack mules have been used the
most. But now this method would
seem very slow to the system now
in vogue at Jacks Valley.
A cable some two thousand feet
in length is stretched from tree
at point near the wood belt 10
a tree at the bottom of the noun
tain. The wood is chained together
and suspended to the cable by the
means of wooden hook and shot
down the mountain to a point
EASILY accessible with wood
So impressed with manner
in which the scheme worked, Mr..
Godiecke has ordered n like cable
and will use it for getting out 800
cords Of wood from his timber land
in the mountains to the west OF
this Valley.

Forest Reserve.

Tom West, Forest Ranger, who
has charge OF the Stanislaus Re-
serve in Mono and Alpine counties,
was in Gardnerville last week on
his return from Sonora where he
has been stationed during the win
ter months. Mr.. West stated the
stockmen are over anxious to get
their cattle on the higher ranges
this Spring owing to the poor feed
in the lower ranges. This condi-
ton does not only exist in Califor-
MIA but Nevada is affected in the
same manner this year and is very
unusual. Usually Nevada has
ample feed on the lower ranges un-
til the season is fairly opened in
the higher mountains, but this
year feed is very short.
Mr.. West also stated that more
applications has been received than
could possibly be accepted, and
that the permits would need be
limited. The government is taking
great care not to over-stock the
national reserves and thereby do
an injustice to the stockmen and
at the same time ruin the ranges.
Mistakes in this nature have been
made in the past, but great care
will be taken from now on in this
respect.

POLITICAL POINTERS
Waterbury Will Se1d Anti.Bryan
 Men 10 Convention.

The delegates chosen at the recent democratic primaries to elect dele- gates to the state convention, which will be held in New Haven on Tues- day and Wednesday, April 2S and 29, met last evening. The conyen- ton wasNby no means dead, in fact it was one of the most lively of its kind held by the democrats in some time. There was q spirited contest between the Bryanites and the ''antis'' for the delegation to the convention, and when the battle had ended it was seen that the support CTS of William Jennings Bryan had been beaten. The delegate elected is understood, is strongly opposed to another attempt to elect Bryan just now With the mayor, an anti Bryan man, heading the delegation, it is not likely that the Waterbury delegates will do much to Loom the candidacy of the .Nebraskan.
 Ex-Senator William Kennedy wished to have a delegation favora- ble to Bryan sent to the convention. as he himself is desirous If going to Denver as national delegate. He says that the mayor promised him after the recent election his support, which statement the mayor denies. At any rate it was nip and tuck contest between the mayor and the eX-Senator. ...
 There was much caucusing last evening before the convention con- vened and the heads were together for some time before the meeting was opened .... ...
 Harry Minor was elected chair man and Michael J. Noonan secre- tary. The following delegates were then elected: .....
 Delegate at large, William E. Thoms. .> ..---
 First ward-Daniel J. Murphy and Charles A. Fine. ...-
 Second ward-Hubert NJ. Rigney and Timothy ]. Brennan.
 Third ward---James H. Freney and Francis P. Guilfoile. ...

Trolley Killed Deer.

Manchester. April 22.-The first accident to take place Jn the new trolley line to Stafford occurred at l0:45 Monday night. The Stafford bound car in charge of Conductor John Madden and MotorInan Warner had passed the Snipsie lake switch about two and a half niles. Sud denly there was seen standing on the side of the track a deer which seemed to be dazcd hy tho large searchlight lanterns that gre used on the cars. The car was within d few feet of the deer when tho motorman saw it and he was about to stop the car when the deer suddenly gave a leap and struck head first against the front of the car. The blow proved too much for the deer as it was knocked over and rolled down the bank dead

WENT OUT IN A BODY.
Row Ill a Scientist Church at Oak
 Park, Near Chicago.

Chicago, April 22.-Difference oi opinion of several months standing in the First Church of Christ. Scier tist, Oak Park, reached a dramatic climax last week in the secession Of nearly 100 members of the church in body.
 These members have taken tempo rary quarters in theater and per manent organization is to be formed within u week. The first service was held there last Sunday.
 The difference arose over the ques- tion of having a new church edifice. The "progressives" objected to wor shipping in building formerly used by Episcopalians and desired build. ing of their own.
 The conservatives. who are the older members of the church, opposed the suggestion, arguing that the membership was too small and fur ther quoting from the building oi the mother church." book written by Mrs Eddy forbidding dedication of Il church until it had been paid foi fully
 The 'progressives'' still insisted. and finally the conservatives" agreed to a public meeting to thresh the question out.
 It was at this meeting last week after hours of debate with no appar- ent hope of compromise that the "progressives'' in a body handed in their resignations from the church. They left the building with the best wishes for success" of the "conserva. tives." shouted at them.

BENCH WARRANT DEAD.
If Walker Comes Back Soon He Will
 Have New Britain Hearing

Hartford, April 22.-As indicated, the bench warrant for w. r: Walker which had been issued by judge Ed win B. Gager at the opening of the March term of the superior criminal court died shortly after o'clock yes terday afternoon. Judge Howard j.. Curtis ordered Sheriff Edward w. Dewey formally to open the ad- iourned March term and then he or dered the sheriff to adjourn the term without day When the adjournment sine die was declared the bench war rant died. The death of the bench warrant is of no advantage to Walk CT. It was only issued for the con venience of the states attorney, so that Walker could be brought direct ly before the superior court had he got back here with Chief Esan while the court was in session. Otherwise he would have had to he taken to New Britain for preliminary hear ing in the police court there. If Walker is returned here before the June term of the superior court opens he will have a preliminary hearing in the New Britain police court.
