which. patched together. convinced
Byrnes that McGloin was the person
who had murdered Hanier.
BY the time the people Of busy New
York had forgotten all about the
tragedy Of West Twenty-sixth street
or had consigned it to the limbo of un-
discovered mysteries. Byrnes, on his
part. determined that the hour had
arrived to strike decisive blow. He
sent his men out and arrested Nc
Gloin. Moran, Banheld and Morrisey.
Each one was apprehended on some
trivial charge and they were brought
to headquarters and placed In separ
rate cells. They protested vehement
". but all to no avail. incidentally. It
might be remarked, they were taken
singly, and no one Of them knew Of
the arrest OF the other. Also, each
one insisted that the action Of the
superintendent was an outrage and a
violation Of the constitution, which
guaranteed to every man the right to
life. liberty and the pursuit of happi-
ness.
Byrnes smiled grimly and said moth
ing.
Day after day passed and the four
men remained under lock and key.
Some Of the subordinate officials. not
being aware of the plans Of the In
spector. wanted to know what was to
be done with the prisoners. 1t seemed
childish, to them. to hold the men In
definitely on such trifling charges. He
made no explanations, offered no ex-
cuses-simply said wait" He cared
nothing about Moran. Banfield and
Morrisey. but he cared q great deal
about McGloin. He wanted to make
him uncomfortable and he sue
ceeded. In the meantime, he was
carefully preparing the stage for the
last big act in his little drama He
would not be hurried; he would not be
cajoled. He bided his time.
1t came finally. and the scene was
pulled on" In . way that made the
melodrama of the modern stage seem
stale and Improbable in comparison.
One morning the inspector arrived
1t his ONCE 4 little earlier than usual.
and for a time there was q great bus
tie and hustle incident to the re-
arrangement Of the once furniture.
When It was concluded B$rnes leaned
back In his revolving chair with 4
Sigh of satisfaction, Then, after !
sweeping survey Of the room. he bent
over and tapped q bell on his desk.
A messenger responded. The inspec-
tor looked up sharply.
"Send down to the ceIIroom and
bring Mike McGloin to me at once"
A glass case at headquarters con-
tanned the ropes and the black caps
which had been used in the execution
of famous murderers. The gruesome
relics were all plainly labeled and
were horrible enough to affect the
nerve of the most hardened criminal.
This case was rolled out into the CEN
ter Of the room so that it would be
the f1rst object to greet the eye of
q visitor. Inspector Byrnes was seated
with his back to large window over
looking q courtyard. Near his desk
was a vacant chair which, when oc-
cupied, gave the person sitting there
a good view of the courtyard. All
about the room were mirrors which

TRAMP AVERAGES
sis TO The TON

Superintendent Charles Garden,
who started work few days ago in
the south Eclipse drift of the Tramp
Consolidated, received a return of
$S1 from four-foot face in the
working. This drift is between the
Eclipse and Tramp shafts, and has
been run for distance of 300 feet,
all in ore of an excellent milling
grade.
Mr.. Garden is sorting the high
grade and will make a carload ship
ment in short time. The entire
vein yields an excellent milling aver
age.
Development is being continued in
the laterals from the 600 and 500
foot levels on the Denver claim. On
the former the north drift is in GO
feet and the south 55 feet, both un-
covering good milling ore. While
the main body is milling a high
grade streak appears which carried
a good shipping ore. The drift on
the 500 has been carried south a
distance of $50 feet, and the vein
content is high grade milling.-Bull-

BIG GOLD STRIKE
At MONTE CARLO

That Humboldt county has won
derful riches is eXemplified every day
for there is not a day but what some
body tells of new strike of ore.
Now comes the news of strike of
considerable magnitude being made
near Donnaschee Springs, about forty
miles west of Winnemucca. The news
was brought here by s. E. Roberts,
who arrived from the scene of the
strike Wednesday. The new camp is
called Monte Carlo and the first loca-
tons were made by Frank Carpen-
ter, Colorado mining man, who
made the original discovery. AL
though the discovery was made al
most month ago it has been kept
quiet, but finally leaked out and a
number of persons from Rosebud
Sawtooth and adjacent camps have
located number of claims. The
territory is large and the big lodges
that traverse the country can be
traced along the surface for a long
distance. At the point where Mr.
Carpenter is doing work the ledge
shows a width of $50 feet and across
this great stretch gold can be panned

ARBOR DAY
PROCLAMATION

In accordance with law, |, John
Sparks, Governor of the State of Ne
vada, do hereby designate Friday,
April II, 1908, as Arbor Day, and
do proclaim that said day shall be
observed as a holiday by the public
schools of this State; provided, that
nothing herein shall be construed as
making this legal holiday so far as
the courts and civil contracts are
concerned" and do most earnestly
recommend that the day ''be observ-
ed by the people of the State in the
planting of trees, shrubs and vines,
in the promotion of forest growth
and culture, in the adornment of
public and private grounds, places
and ways, and in such other efforts
and undertakings as shall be in har-
mony with the character of the day
SO established"
The above statement of law should
be sufficient to convince all persons,
who feel personal interest in the
future welfare of our commonwealth,
to respond to the sentiments, not sell
fishly, but for the public good. IT
is within the memory of all early
settlers that our mountains were
covered with magnificent forest and
woodland trees, but the woodlands
ak vigorously applied soon left a
bald, barren waste A feeble at
tempt was made by legislative enact
ment to preserve the second growth
but not until the Federal Govern.
ment assumed and established Ma.
tional Forest Reserves, and adopted
the policy of conservation and distri.
button of water for irrigation pur,
poses, did real progress begin with
hopeful results. Hereafter, every
water course, ditch and rivulet
should be fringed with trees. Ever,
home should be adorned with trees
shrubs and vines; grass made to grow
and flowers to bloom. Thousands o
new homes are being established, ant
contentment, comfort and happiness
will prevail.

AGAINST Skinner
DEFENDANT BEAT MONA BELL
THE NIGHT OF THE
TRAGEDY.

New and damaging evidence was
introduced by the prosecution yes
terday in the Skinner trial. A. 49,
caliber Smith and Wesson revolver
was placed in evidence and positively
identified by Biom Demming as one
Skinner had in his possession shortly
before the shooting. Chief of Police
Harding testified that he had found
the revolver underneath the house
after the murder had been commit
ted and that it was covered with
blood. The six empty shells fit the
gun perfectly.
Demming also testified that he was
out with Skinner, Mona Bell and an
other man, and they were going the
rounds. That during the evening,
when the murdered woman didn't
want to drink, Skinner threw several
glasses at her and also beat her with
his fists, and when she fell to the
floor, he kicked her, despite her pleas
| for him to desist.
During the recess in the after.
noon, Mrs. Skinner made a rush and
kissed the defendant before the dep.
uty sheriff could stop her, and as
they were separated it could be seer
that she was on the verge of collapse
The State finished it's case at about

A SAD mission

w. w. Booth last evening received
dispatch from Yreka, Cal, that his
mother, who is in her S9th year,
had received a bad fall which result
ed in her breaking her hip. Physi-
clans say that owing to the advanced
age of the lady that it will be i'm
possible to administer an anaesthetic
to the sufferer and grave fears are
entertained for her recovery, as an
operation is necessary. Mr.. Booth
expects to leave for her bedside on
Sunday
