cific railroad, three miles west of the
city, little progress has been made
toward arresting the robbers. Two
empty mail pouches taken from the
train wera found some distance from
where the robbery occurred. They had
been cut open and their contents re-
moved, the outlaws overlooking only
one package. The highwaymen drop
ped from sight SO completely that not
a single person has been able to
give a clew.
Every town in the county has been
notified and the sheriffs of surround
ing counties have been keeping a
lookout for strangers. The postoffice
department has taken steps to aid in
the search.

1t is believed that the robbers rode
in an automobile to the scene of the
holdup. IT has been learned that a
fire was burning on the bank near

order that they might know where

Riches Of Dumas Hero Insignificant Compared

On a long table in the center of the

at first sight appear to be gravel or
small pieces or rock about to be con-
verted into cement. However, upon a
closer inspection, the gravel turned out
to be the richest ore, perhaps, ever
taken out of the ground.
The two bushel baskets full, more or
less, weighing about 800 pounds, of
rock was worth in the neighborhood of
$4,000, and was being prepared for

witness their initial performance as

The entertainment passed off without

MEETS WITH PAIN.
fUL ACCIDENT

Yesterday morning, at about
o'clock, H. L. Lundburg, local manager
for the telephone company, met with
an accident that might easily have
resulted in his death. While making
up his bed situated in room in the
rear of the telephone exchange, pistol
fell to the floor. Striking on the ham,
mer, the weapon was discharged, the
bullet passing through the feshy part
of Mr.. Lundburg's right thigh.
DIR. Giroux was summoned and the
injured man was taken to a room in
Schmidt's lodging house, where the
wound was dressed. This morning the
patient was resting easily, and barring
accidents will be up and about in few
days.

PARADISE DOES HONOR TO ITS RE.
TlRlNG PASTOR WEEKS LOCAL DOINGS

Paradise, Nevada, May IL, 1909.
Talk about socials! We did not
know the real meaning of the word
until Saturday evening. For a couple
of weeks the ladies of Paradise, under
the leadership of Mrs. Grigsby and
Mrs. T. J. Bradshaw, had been work
ing up social for the benefit of the
pastor, and Saturday evening it cul-
minated in a real social. A short but
excellent program was given at the
church, after which sociability was the
order until luncheon was announced.
This was served at the parsonage, where
tables had been spread and loaded with
the best of good things, such as sand
wiches, cake and coffee. And such
cake! The ladies of the valley certain
ly are adopts in the art of cake max
ing. Some good friends had made
a nice lot of candy, which sold like
hotcakes, and netted the neat sum of
$340. The program consisted of ex-
cellent singing by choir consisting of
Miss Fannie Case, Mrs. II. A. Harvey,
Mrs. Hattie Bradshaw, Mrs. j. F. Har-
vey, Mrs. Cathcart and Harold Har-
Ivey. Mrs. H. A. Harvey sang solo
which was very pleasing to the audi
ence, as well as a credit to the singer.
The recitation of part of Webster s
reply to Haines, preceded by few
well-chosen words of explanation, by
Erwin Case was well rendered and well
received by the people, but perhaps
the most pleasing part of the whole
program was the recitation by Miss
Lily Byrnes. Miss Lily is fair as her
namesake, and is grace itself at all
times, and her Interpretation of her
subject was almost faultless. After
the program, Charley Bradshaw tuned
up the phonograph, and while select
committee was counting the proceeds
turned it loose. At the close of the
first selection the pastor was presented
with $56.67. From that time until mid
night jolity and feasting, enlivened by
music, reigned supreme. A more pleas
ant or successful event could hardly
be imagined The ladies who so sue
cessfully conducted this enterprise
wish in this way to thank all those who
so generously responded to their So
licitation. The entire valley was rep
resented and if the earnest prayers of
the pastor can avail, Gods richest
blessings will rest upon this valley and
its inhabitants. We are more or less
familiar with the pople in some four

ject along come to Sunday school next

Preparation for Childrens' day are
going forward under the guidance of a

ably take place on June 20, and will,

Decoration day will be fittingly cele-
brated here this year.

of the editor has made our position as
correspondent very pleasant one and
we reluctantly surrender the pencil in

Very slow progress is being made in
