Thursday afternoon one of the swiftest
and most scientific games of baseball
ever witnessed in the west was pulled
off at the Yerington baseball park. The
grand stand was filled long before the
game was called and many were conf
PEELED to sit upon the ground or stand
up during the entire game. 1t was prob
ably the only errorless game played this
year and much money changed hands
over the result One of the features of
the game was the base running of H.
Samuel, captain of the defeated nine, he
making the entire circuit of the bases
in less than thirty minutes. Pitcher
Gangnon had down shoot and spit
ball that none of the opposing batters
could reach, and sometimes the catcher
was also unable to get near them. Pitcher
Mapes had the speed of Rusie and the
curves of Waddell, but did not use
them. At the close of the game Van
Alstine received telegram from the
Pittsburg National league team Offering
him a permanent job. Space forbids our
giving the game in detail and mention
ing the features. The following is list
of the players with their positions and
the number of tallies made by each:

MT GRANT DISTRICT

Messrs. Mike KnoH and Jesse Herring
ton are working on the summit of Mt.
Grant on the Midnight group of copper
claims. They have opened up big
ledge that is about feet in width and
gives an average assay of IS per cent
copper. The ore is malachte and red
oxide and some native copper can be
seen in the rock The strike is good
one and ought to make millions for it's
owners.
] r. Munden has sold fourth inter
est in the new copper strike to Mr., Nc
Dermott of Yerington.
At Lappin Meadows the placers are
working steadily and the dirt yields
about fifty cents an hour to the rocker.
They are getting some fine large mug
gets. ]. R. Snodgrass, the Dutch
Creek storekeeper, has six fine claims,
and Mr.. Weaver and partners are talking
of putting in dredger and building a
reservoir.
Alfred Day of Rhyolite has shaft
down fifteen feet on his No. claim.
He has two claims and fraction, and
plenty OF wood and water on the ground.
I. B.. Gambel and c. l.. Marsh have
found one of the largest low grade mines
in the State. 1t is located at the head of
Little Lappin Canyon. They have three
claims in the group. The dixie is 500
feet in width and 5000 feet in length and
assays from 81 to S5 per ton the entire
width. On the hanging wall of this inn
mense dixie there is ledge Of quartz
that is three feet wide and assays over
81 to the ton in gold and silver. There
are millions Of tons OF low grade in sight.
Plenty of wood and water on the claims.
What this district needs now is a
wagon road from Cottonwood Creek
through the Wheeler Pass, by Chipmunk
Springs, to Yerington.

of the crime of murder. She was out
riding at night with another woman's
husband and killed him, claiming self

Wanted His Dues.

A reservation Indian was disconso-
late over the breaking Of his AK ham
die. He laid his misfortune before
the farmer OF the reservation. who,
through pity. took new handle from
his private stock and adjusted It to
the AK. The farmer then noticed that
the AK was shockingly dull. SO. mo-
tioning the owner to turn the grind =
stone. he expended a half hours time
In sharpening the blade. When the
rehabilitated AK was given to the Ir-
dian he was chiidishly gleeful. but
still fingered about, indicating by his
actions that some feature OF the
transaction had not been adjusted.
The farmer was a little annoyed
and called to an interpreter. "Ask
the old fellow what he wants now,"
he directed.
After an exchange Of grunts and
gestures the interpreter announced,
He wants 25 cents"
twenty-five cents! What for?"
For turning the grindstone."-
