AN ATTRACTION OF MERIT
COMING NEXT FRIDAY

One of the most meritorious attrae-
tions on the road, direct from New
York City after an engagement of eight
record breaking weeks at the American
trcater and the same can be said of all
cities from the east to the west. Chas.
j LeMoine and his talented company
of comedians, in the uproarously funny
musical comedy, GA Husband on Sal
ary," will appear for one night only az
the Nixon opera house on next Friday
evening, and they undoubtedly deserve
a crowded house. Secure seats early at
Pearce's store and aviod the unneees-
sary confusion at the box office.

Buried Under Auspices Of Masonic Lodee--verdict
Of Coroners Jury Unsatisfactory to Relatives

Accompanied by Tom Owens and G.
Uniacke, the remains of Mr.. Onyon
were taken Tuesday night to his old
home in Gilroy, California, where the
funeral was held under the auspices of

companied by her sister and by train

No TARIFF LAW BUT
PAYNE BILL PROBABLE

If congress at the present extra ses-
sion fails to enact tariff bill which
President Taft is willing to sign, the
Dingley act is likely to remain on the
statute books for considerable time.
1t hardly would be worth while to try
it again in the 61st congress, for with
the same membership the same trades
and concessions would have to be made.
In November of next year the people
will commission new congress, and
should democratic majority be return
ed to the house the prospects of tariff
legislation would be still further re-
mote, as there would be no prospect of
a democratic house and a republican
senate agreeing on bill.

RAWHIDE PHYSI-
Clan ACCUSED

The management of the Weiss mill,
one of the Rawhide local reduction
plants, Thursday morning reported to
the police authorities that amalgam,
the result of run of ore from the
Lucky StrikeGold Pen property, had
been mysteriously taken away.
The exact value of the amalgam
could not be given, but it is estimated
to be worth from $4,000 to 100000
Suspicion soon attached itself to DR..
j. L. Garner, prominent local ply
sician, who had recently bonded the
Lucky Strike-Gold Pen property and
who was working the property and
having the ore extracted treated by
the Weiss MILL
A Misunderstanding arose between
the owners of the property and DR..
Garner, concerning payments to be
made on the property, and as far as
known locally, DR.. Garner had given
up hope of arriving at an equitable
agreement which did not exist under
contract or option for purchase.
Search for DR.. Garner revealed the
fact that he had left town early in the
morning and had probably headed
south.
The authorities at once chartered an
auto and started in hot pursuit. He
vas 1ccatse IA 5chnr AMI immcdI 1tely
placed under arrest. He was searched
but no part of the treasure was found
in his belongings.
DR.. Garner is still in the custody of
the deputy sheriff at Schurzz pending
further developments.

WILL GO TO INLAY
ON JUNE IS

June Is has been fixed as the date for
the occupancy of Inlay as division
point by the Southern Pacific COM
pany according to the statement by
Superintendent Manson of the Salt
Lake division. On that date it is ex-
pected that all work on the new divis-
ion point will have been completed and
everything in readiness for the aban-
donment of Winnemucca as a division
point. All the construction work and
track laying has been completed and
the only thing that is delaying matters
now is the completion of the large hotel
and lodging house which the company
is erecting for the employees and gen
eral public.
"Our construction engineer states
that the place will be ready for occu-
pancy by June 15," said Superinten-
dent Manson to a Gazette reporter.
1--WE do not intend to move from Win
nemucca until accommodations for the
employees are entirely completed. Ii we
move to Inlay on the morning of June
Is we wish to have breakfast served
ON time there ON that date and to have
satisfactory accommodations for en-
ployes and passengers.
"Imlay will be one of the cleanest,
healthiest and best equipped division
points in the west. 1t is provided with
all modern conveniences, including a
sewer system and water supply that
cannot be beaten anywhere.
1.-THE company is also erecting a
large number of residences for the
employees. Sixteen have already been
built and many more applications have
been received -

OF TARIFF
ON WOOL MARKE!

In speaking of the Payne tariff bill,
in their April market report, Justice,
Bateman & Co., the Philadelphia wool
commission merchants, have the follow
ing to say:
The Payne tariff bill, as reported to
the house of representatives by the
committee on ways and means, makes
no change from the present duties on
but changes the duties on third class
woods, owing to urgent demands from
carpet manufacturers. If, under the
head of third class WOODS, nothing was
imported except woods used strictly in
the manufacture of carpets, there would
probably be no objection from the
wool growers to the duties as proposed; !;
but unquestionably some of the woods
which are imported in class three are
grades of clothing and any lowering
of duties ON third class woods as at
present classified must have some effect
on prices of American quarter blood
and low woods, for which the best
grades of class three woods are substi-
tuted
If importations of waste, shoddy and
rags are stimulated by the proposed re-
duction of duties on these articles, it
will be the equivalent of some reduc-
tion in duty on first and second class
woods. Under the present law, the inn
portations of waste, shoddy and rags
are unimportant; but if the duty is so
altered that they can be imported free
ly, they will, of course, displace Ameri-
can wool, as they can be used to take
the place of short staple secured wools.

DISASTROUS BLAZE
AT GOLDFIELD

The worst fire in the history Of Gold
field, which for time threatened the
entire business district, broke out
Thursday evening at $3.50 O'Clock. The
fire started in the photograph gallery
of Welsh 8 Tune, spreading to adjoin-
ing buildings with great rapidity.
In ten minutes it seemed that it
would be impossible to control the
blaze which was eating its way
through dry wooden buildings for half
a block.
The fire started on the east side Of
Main street, between Hall and Ram
sey streets, opposite the stock ex-
change. Buildings in the path Of the
flames are total loss-Welsh 3 Tune,
Independent Market, Faust Saloon and
Billiard hall, Charette Drug Co., Bar
ings Moving Picture theater, Russ
house, W. A. Lord, jeweler, and
lodging house over Faust saloon.
All buildings except Baring's theatcr
and Lords Jewelry store are total
loss.
The direct cause of the fire could
not be learned, but it is supposed to
have originated in an explosion Of
chemicals in Welsh & Tunes photo
graph gallery.
Baring's picture show, adjoining the
photograph gallery directly on the
north, with only partition Of an inch
board, was crowded to its capacity.
Lives of so persons were endangered
when the fire was first noticed.
The assistant chief Of the fire de-
lpartment was attending the show with
his family. He ordered the people out
the front and back exits. Fortunately
there were four exits to the theater.
The block burned was the most prom
inent in Goldfeld.
During the fire the Lord jewelry store
was looted of about $4,000 worth Of
jewelry and so far the officers have not
located the thieves or the plunder.
