Through great puncture in the clouds the rain descended yesterday and the second game of the Birming Nashville series was postponed.
 The rain began at o'clock in the morn- ing and drew breath after thousand mile run at o'clock in the afternoon.
 Had the downpour received a check at ? o'clock there could have been a game, for the diamond stood the test finely, yielding not an inch to the liquid per- suasion.
 Rain throughout the south was general yesterday, and only one of four scheduled game could be played.

Short Session Of Court.

Judge Orr came over from
Reno Monday, and attended to
a couple of cases between trains.
In the case of the State VS..
Percy E. Fuller he sustained the
demurrer to the indictment and
set aside his previous order for
feiting the bail money, the in
dictment being drawn on a differ
ent charge from the one under
which the arrest was made and
the bail fixed.
Another case was that of SPELL
man VS.. j. R. Jones ct al. This
is a grubstake case, in which
Spellman furnished three burros
and a saddle, for which he was
to receive a one-fourth interest
in Jones' mining efforts. Jones
located the Silver King, Inger-
soil and Ruby groups in the Fair
view district, the latter adjoin-
ing the Mizpah, and all being
good property. He sold the Sill
yer King for $1,000 and gave
Spellman his share. The Inger-
soil and Ruby groups Jones in
corporated, but the plaintiff could
not get any of the stock, conse-
quently the suit.
The evidence in this case was
taken before Judge Orr Monday
afternoon and he now has it un-
der advisement. The defendant
admitted the contract with plaint-
iff, but claimed it had been can
celled.
Cheney. Massey, Price 4

Mining News.

{. w. Kinney came IN from AL
pine Tuesday. whittier he had
gone with a Mr.. Rodgers of Salt
Lake, an expert in the employ of
E. L. White, of Boston, to pass
on the Shoshone group of FIVE
mineral claims. This property
was worked twenty years ago
and ore shipped from it to Vir-
ginia City for milling. Since
those days new owners have run
a 300-foot tunnel and assays have
been obtained all the way from
So to $1,000 to the ton, from the
different lodges. 1t is expected
that on Messrs. Rodgers and
Kinney's report will hinge the
transfer of the property to East
ern parties. In fact, it can be
stated that the report will be fa-
favorable.
This property has always been
very valuable, but on account of
its distance from any railroad has
not been worked as it should have
been. 1t is said that the new
owners will develop it and put up
a mill. There is plenty of wood
and water at hand.
M. Kinney left Wednesday to
arrange to start work on the Pc
dro group of mines. about four
and a half miles east of Rawhide,
recently purchased by an East
ern syndicate from Jim Barron
and Lem Allen. He will purchase
the necessary machinery on the
trip.

An Accomplished Musician.

Monday evening July 13, 1908,
Miss Neya Coe, late student at
Coombs Conservatory of Music,
Philadelphia, gave recital at
Clark's pavilion. A small but ap-
preciative audience listened to a
program of high class music.
Miss Neva is yet a girl in years
and Fallon people should be proud
that such a talented young per-
son abides within their circle. 1t
was a great surprise to her friends
to see the wonderful change in
Miss Goes execution.
She plays with far more style.
grace and genuine soul than
many artists the writer has seen
city audiences rave over, Her
ease and style are certainly ex-
ceptional and as far as soul is
concerned she had that in her
music before she ever left here.
1t is hoped that she will appear
soon again before the public and
the many who appreciate good
music who missed their opportu-
nifty Monday night will avail
themselves of the next one.

The Fsllon STANDARD, without doubt
one of the best edited newspapers in
Nevada, is now being published twice a
week. Editor A. p. Bettersworth, who
purchased the STANDARD several
months ago. has been improving the
paper ever since. He has always real
lied that his readers want more news
than they were getting and has been
striving to give them a double amount
in the form of two editions weekly.
There is no doubt but the people of
Churchill county will show there appre-
cistation with increased patronage.
No one is better entitled to success
than Bettersworth. He has been q
booster for that county for the past
three years and his work has been of
great value To that section in bringing
the resources of Churchill county to the
attention of the outside world. Success

Party of Newspaper Correspond
ents and Senator Newlands.

c. ]. Blanchard, statistician of
the United States Reclamation
Service, accompanied by eight
special correspondents of Eastern
newspapers and periodicals, ar
rived in Fallon at 8:15 o'clock
yesterday morning On special
train. Thos. H. Means, engineer
in charge of the reclamation SER
vice, met the party at Hazen and
rode over with them.
In the party were Arthur Dunn,
of the Woman's National Daily.
st. Louis; Jewell Aubere, of the
st. Louis Globe-Democrat; Arthur
Ruhl. of Golfers Weekly; T. w.
Brahany, of the New York Even
ing Post and Milwaukee Sentinel;
Harry Crist, of the Brooklyn Ea-
gle; Gibson Gardner, represent
ing Scripps-McRae League of
newspapers, and last but not least
Pat" c. Baker, who will sIread
the fame of Carson sink for the
Detroit News.
Whatever this corps of CORES
pondents will say to their read
ers, numbering into the millions,
and there is no doubt but that
their impressions will be favora-
BILE, will be of inestimable value
as an advertisement to this sec-
ton of the country. There are
millions throughout this broad
land who have never even heard
Of the wonderful opportunities In
this wonderful land where the
Tree of Opportunity has scarcely
been shaken; the opportunity to
get a home, with a perpetual
water right. and to become inde-
pendent as the country grows,
as it is bound to do, and which
no power can stop.
The correspondents were met
at the depot by a few citizens,
among whom was j. w. Fergu-
son, president of the Fallon Com
mercial Club. 1t was understood
that the train would arrive at 8
o'clock, and that accounts for the
small number to welcome the
strangers.
Conveyances were in waiting
and the party embarked and were
driven to the Reclamation head
quarters, where a half hour was
spent inspecting the buildings
and getting acquainted with the
boys, after which a trip was made
to Rattlesnake Hill. from which
a view of the entire valley can be
obtained. Through the ranch
lands to the east and south of
town the visitors were taken, and
they expressed surprise at the
development shown.
Senator Francis G. Newlands
came over from Reno on the reg
ular train and as soon as he ar
rived the newspaper men, the
Senator and a number of Fallon
citizens, whose names will appear
in the next issue, sat down to a
sumptuous spread at the reclama-
ton headquarters and spent a
pleasant hour talking about irri-
cation, etc.
At the conclusion of the meal
a snapshot was taken of the en-
tire party for Mr.. Blanchard.

The Standard" Complimented

The growth of Fallon and the district
around it has now warranted the publi-
cation of q semi-weekly paper there,
instead of weekly, and Brother Bet
tersworth of the Churchill County
STANDARD has been quick to seize the
opening. The STANDARD, always q
good paper, will now as a semi-weekly,
be twice az good-a mathematical pro-
position that could be easily demon
strated, if it were necessary. But it
isn't necessary, for Bettersworth will
make the paper four times as good with
out half trying. The Journal congra-
tulates him on his enterprise and the
evidences of the prosperity that man
deserves who has worked as hard for
his town as Bettersworth. Reno

Milking machines are coming into

according to the department Of agricul-
tCre. They also seem to give general
satisfaction wherever they have been
tried and the indications are that they
will be in general use all over the
country after a title while. The
dairy experts of the government have
been experimenting with them, and
will make their report during the sum-

which is possible, it will revolutionize

On account Of reform in the tariff
