FINE FISHING GROUND.

One of the finest and largest col
lections of speckled trout ever
brought into Ely was catch exhibit
ed by Gus Fahrendorf and w. c..
Goodman, managers of the dry goods
and hardware departments of the
Graham Mercantile store, upon their
return Sunday afternoon from an
eight days fishing trip on Cleve
creek.
The catch made by the young men
numbered nearly 500 and among the
lot were many trout of rare size and
weight. The sight of the collection
made sportsmen in the city who
viewed it yearn for their vacation
days.
Messrs. Fahrendorf and Goodman
report that Cleve creek is one of the
very best for trout fishing they ever
CHANGED across, stating that fish were
unusually plentiful. During their
eight days camping on the banks of
Cleve creek their catches averaged
between 1870 and 140 fish each day,
and the young men state that they
were not very persistent in their ang-
ling at that.

NEWS OF SUDDEN DEATH.
W. T. Owen Leaves for Former Home
in Kentucky Upon Receipt of
Sad Intelligence.

w. T. Owen, for some months city
editor with the News, received a tele-
gram Sunday morning announcing
the death of his father, Judge Owen,
of Greensboro, Kentucky. No partic-
ulars we're contained in the telegram,
but the presumption is that death
was the result of rheumatism of the
heart, with which Judge Owen had
long been an occasional sufferer
The news of the death of his father
came as much of a shock to his son
in this city, who during the week had
received a letter from his father in
which he stated that he was enjoy
ing unusually good health. He was
native of Kentucky and had re-
ceived many honors at the hands of
the people of his home city and state
His son left yesterday morning for
Owensboro, where the body of the
deceased will be held for burial until
his arrival. Following the funeral
and attention to matters pertaining
to the estate of his father, Mr.. Owen
will return to his position with the
News, the staff of which together
with many friends of the young man
in the district extend sympathy to
him in his bereavement

ESCAPED THEIR FRIENDS.
Latter Considered Mr.. Stevenson and
Bride Entitled to Double Con-
CALCULATIONS as a Result.

Preparations took place in Ely
yesterday afternoon which promised
to result in no small amount of dis
comfiture for Joe" Stevenson, man.
ager of the Northern hotel, whose ar
rival on the train with his bride was
anticipated by large number of his
warm friends. Because of Steven
sons thoughtfulness, however, all the
Ely plans came to naught, as he had
suspicion of trouble ahead and was
prepared for eluding any obstacle to
a peaceful journey into town.
Getting off the train at Ely City,
bride and groom entered an auto
and with Frank Irving at the helm
it is needless to say that any at
tempt to stop the party en- route to
their home was out of the question.
When the train stopped at Ely and
the enthusiastic congregation of
friends realized that they had been
Outwitted. they made their way to
the abode of the bridal pair and
heartily extended congratulations
taking the opportunity also of men,
tioning that congratulations were in
order not only because of the young
couples happy marriage, but by rea-
son of their escape from the recep-
ton that had been planned for them

RAINY SEASON GETS BUSY.

The rainy season seems to have
entered upon a program of activity,
following some months of distress
ing inattention to business, from the
standpoint of the stockman and ag-
riculturist. Yesterday afternoon there
were couple of heavy showers,
which We're followed by others late
in the night. In the Steptoe valley
to the north it rained nearly all day
yesterday. There were also heavy
rains to the east and north on Sun
day. The precipitation since the
showers commenced last week proba-

Northern Block

in Elko county, was again refused,
having it is said but one vote in favor
of his release. Hendricks has been
in the state prison for something
over Is years being the oldest pris-
oner at the place.
The case of Tony Christie, the
Reno man serving 15 years for rob
berry, is still under consideration by
the board. Many believe that Chris
tie is not guilty of the crime for
which he was sentenced, the robbery
of saloon at Sparks, and at this
session of the board Attorney Levers
of Reno appeared voluntarily before
the board and made a plea for the
prisoner. stating that he did so be-
cause he had become convinced the
man was serving time for crime
he never committed. The board will
likely hand down a decision in the
case today.
Among the paroles granted by the
board yesterday was one to ]. w.
Carroll, former saloon keeper at
Hazen, who killed a man in his sa
loon by striking him with loaded
piece of hose. Carroll had a good
reputation and the crime was an ac-
cidental one. He was sentenced to
serve five years.
Another case which attracted con-
siderable attention was that of Coo
chic Sigmiller, young Indian from
Lincoln county. The prisoner, a boy
of 16 years, was sentenced to serve
for life for killing a man named At
kins. 1t appears that Atkins was
sort of bad man" and he threatened
and tried to assault the sister of the
prisoner and the latter secured a gun
and shot Atkins to death, shooting
him In the back as he laid down on
his own porch. Sigmiller's applica-
ton was denied.
The board acted on 25 other ap-
plications yesterday, all of which
were denied.

SQUIRREL INVASION.

The farmers of Lamoille are hav-

threatens to destroy their entire
crops for this year. From the hills
have come hordes of field mice and
squirrels that have completely de-

same time securing from the farmers
a good compensation for the time
spent in that pastime. Many farms
have hundreds of traps placed about
