GOOD REPORTS
FROM BULLFROG
VARIOUS MILLS AND MINES IN
THE DISTRICT DOING
WE'LL.

Deputy Sheriffs Casey from Rhyo-
lite and Thomas B. Devine of Beatty
came up yesterday from the south,
and both have the best of reports
from the Bullfrog district.
The mines never looked better,
said Mr.. Casey. ''and the people never
felt more confident that there is go
ing to be great improvement in the
district. To be sure, the place is
quiet for the lack of money at pres.
ent, but the work of development and
improvement has been going right
along, just the same. There will be
lots doing down there when the
money market eases up, and the Sho-
shone, Gold Bar, Homestake and 9TH
er mines, the Tramps Consolidated,
National Bank and the surrounding
properties are all looking well.
The mill of the Montgomery Sho-
shone has proven a great success and
the mill of the Gold Bar has been

all sides there is activity, and nearly
all the mines are working. The mills
are the plants that tell the story, and
these are going up as fast as they
can be furnished and brought in. We
have no fear for the future as sooI

Mrs. Forster spent Tuesday night
at Goldfield, and upon her return yes
terday she was walking up the Mt

the shades in the house drawn. She
remembered that she had not closed
them, and instead of going home,
went to the house of Mrs. Hedden.
Together, the two ladies' went to the
Forster house. The interior was d

account for the sudden decamping OF

IN CONFERENCEON
RAILROAD RATES

CARSON, New, Jan. 8.-The Ne
vada Railroad Commission and Off
Gals of different railroad companies
having lines in Nevada, met in Car
son City today for the second time to
discuss the. matter of lowering rail-
road rates in this State. At the last
meeting the Nevada Railroad Com
missioners discussed the matter with
the railroad officials and demanded
that something be done. The officials
took the matter under consideration
and promised to submit terms at the
meeting held today.
Charles S. Fee, general manager
and traffic manager of the Southern
Pacific Company, arrived in his priv
ate car San Jose, and was accom-
panied by the following railroad otfi-
Gals: E. w. Gillette. traffic manag-
err of the Las Vegas and Tonopah
Railroad; F. C. Peck, general passen-
Ger agent of the San Pedro, Los An
geleS ana salt Lake ndilo"u' -
Hedden, general passenger agent OF
the Tonopah and Goldeld, and Q. b
Sealy, chief rate clerk of the South
ern Pacific.
II is believed that Charles S. Fee
and other officials will submit rates
and ask that they be accepted by tns
railroad commission. 1t is believed
that rates will be reduced on neariS
all lines in Nevada with the probable
exception of the main line OF th'
Southern Pacific, and if possible th'
commissioners will secure reduc
ton on that line as we'll as on al
others in the State.

Interesting EvangeIistic Meeting Heid
at First Baptist Church Under
Direction of Rev. J. @.
A. Henry

The revival services now in progress
at the First Baptist church have
opened auspiciously. Considering. the
weather, the congregations have been
large and the interest deep.
DR.. Henry is speaking this week on
Lost Things" His topic last night
was 1.-The Lost Bible" He showed
how during the reign of idolatry ana
sin the book of the law was lost, but
that when the nation was on the point
of destruction it was providentially
discovered and obedience to its teach
ings gave the kingdom of Judah a new
lease of life. He emphasized the enor-
nous value of the scriptures in the de-
velopment of personal character and
in the preservation of national life.
The singing of Professor Stout was
greatly enjoyed.

"The Lost Christ" and Professor

CITY ASSERTS RIGHTS FOR
VACATION OF HILL STREET
CHARGES PROPERTY OWNER HAS
RETAINED FRONTAGE
Accused Claims Municipality Has No
Legal Title, Hence the Whole
Question May Be Carried
Into Court

The city engineers office has taken
up for quick settlement the case in
volving the vacation of the north end
o. Hill street by the city in return for
certain concessions granted by Will
w. Beach.
Mr.. Beach, according to the engineer,
has constructed cement steps agreed on,
but has retained valuable frontage of
fifty feet which he was expected to deed
to the city for park purposes.
In extenuation of his failure to carry
out the terms of his agreement Beach
states that after the vacation ordinance
was passed he discovered that the city
had no legal title to the street and that
quit claim to him would have been
sufficient.
The city engineers office recon-
mends:
That Beach place the two lower
cement posts of the steps at once, but
that the placing of the upper one be
deferred until the grade of Hill street
is fixed.
That the subject be referred to the
city attorney to ascertain the city's
legal rights.
That such subsequent action be taken
by the board of public works as seems
proper to secure title to the remaining
parcels of land and the performance
of the work agreed upon.

RLNA WAY HORSES
EXCITE BROADWAY
TEAR DOWN STREET THROUGH
SHOPPING CROWDS
Three Boys on Tail Board of Wagon
Made Spectators Gasp-stiII
Running When Last
Seen

Broadway, busy, crowded Broadway,
that usually hurries to and fro with
true Gotham diligence, was thrown
into a period of excitement yesterday
by a dramatic scene that caused men
to tear madly down the middle of the
street and women to gasp and sup
press shrieks.
This was at $3.50 o'clock, when the
shopping crowds were thick between
Third and Fourth streets. Coming
like flash into the street, with a
clatter that was an alarm, plunging
madly and running like derby winners.

turn aside. The runaways were young,
strong animals, and they seemed not
to feel the restraining hold of a
courageous young man of stout build.
who stood up as he performed the diff
ficult feat of avoiding collision and
seeking to restrain the frightened
animals.
But what alarmed the spectators
most was the presence of three small
boys sitting on the tailboard of the
wagon bed. They were huddled to-
gether too scared to know what to do
or to do it if they did know. One was
Tiny llllle Fellow, WHO bounced with
the plunging of the wagon bed, and it
was these three little ones that caused
the gasps and the smothered shrieks.
Before the horses had gone half a
block the single-trees broke and fell
at their heels. still held by the stout
traces. The driver, seeing this,
seemed to cease efforts at restraint and
devoted his skill to keeping the runa-
ways out of collision. In this he did
admirably, for when the team dashed
across Fourth street 1t missed several
vehicles narrowly, scooted around a
trolley car and, finding a clear track
ahead, for the excitement had cleo
trically speeded ahead of the runaway,
the horses tore south with the driver
standing and the single-trees clatter-
ing at the horses heels.
Nearly every one ran into the street,
and as far as those who were high
enough could see the team ran on until
it disappeared.
No chariot driver in the old Roman
circus ever performed with the skill
of the driver of this team and his fear
seemed to be mostly about the boys,
for he turned once or twice toward
them. Between Third and Fourth
streets. whether by accident or design,
one of the boys tumbled out of the
wagon, picked himself up and disap-
peared in the crowd.
So far as Is known, no one was hurt
and the team was finally stopped, ex-
hausted.

The meeting was presided over by DR..
Warren f. Day. The opening prayer
was delivered by DR.. ]. Q. A. Henry
of the First Baptist church and the
Whittier Glee club added interest to
the occasion by singing choice songs
Robert c. Root gave a short talk, out
lining the aim and purpose of the So
ciety, and the principal address was
delivered by DR.. H. II. Guy of the
Christian church, recently from Japan
DR.. Guy lived in Japan for fifteen
years, and during that time went
through the Chinese-Japanese and
Russo-Japanese wars.
DR.. Guy said: IN my mind there
never was a war that could not nave
been avoided by the aid of arbitration
People that stir up a war are not the
ones to do the fighting. The finances
and the entire life of the country are
always left in a broken condition ano
the property gained is never near tht
cost required to gain it. Until the
people of this nation become educatet
up to the fact that peace and gooc
will toward our fellow man should
prevail. we must expect war;
DR.. Guy also spoke along the lines
of the present trouble brewing be-
tween Japan and this country He
said: when Japan prepares for war
she does not do it through the news
papers, but her preparations are car
ried on very secretly and at the same
time she is spreading the news that
she does not contemplate war and Is
not preparing for it, but when she pre-
mares for war it is through her arsen-
ais. In Japan 1 lived near an arsenal
and there was nothing going on there
to indicate that Japan was preparing
for war. All this talk is the creation
of imagination"
other meetings will be held in the
near future and announced later.

BENCH WARRANT ISSUED
FOR SALOON PROPRIETOR
Sentence of 1920 Days in Jail Is Sus-

PENDANT Fails to Sur

Police Justice Chambers yesterday
issued a bench warrant for the arrest
of j. p. Conner, proprietor of saloon
at First and Los Angeles streets VINO
was convicted some time ago on a
charge of keeping pay checks which
laborers had given him to cash.
Conner was sentenced to serve 12O
days in the city Jail. He appealed his
case and furnished $500 bond pending
appeal. The decision of the police
court was sustained by the higher
court, and Conner should have sur
rendered himself to the custody of the
chief of police. His failure to do so
resulted in the issuance of the bench
warrant.
Conner is defendant in another case
which is set for trial today. The
charge is similar to the one upon
which he was convicted.
On this charge ts was required to
furnish $3.50 bail.
