SCOTT MADE
THREATS ABOUT
HlGH-GRAOING
STATE IS ENDEAVoRING TO
PROVE THAT ASSAULT WAS
PRENiEDITATED

Attorney Martinson of Manhat-
tan, occupied the stand at the clos
ing Of yesterdays session Of the dis
trict court, testifying on behalf Of
the state in the case Of Phil Scott
charged with assault with intent to
kill. Martinson said that one day
in his Office, while he was talking
to Walter Lamb, Scott entered and
during the conversation that fol-
lowed remarked that he (Scott)
was one of the men who had been
previously arrested for high grad
ing, Lamb replied that precautions
were to be used to keep high grad
ers from entering the property, and
that guards would be placed at the
mine. To this, Scott stated that
the next time he entered the mine
he would carry away ore and if nee
essary would emerge from the mine
smoking"
Lamb, earlier in the day, made
practically the same statement as
to the threats~Wade by Scott,
The proceedings took queer
turn during the afternoon when it
was attempted to introduce the
transcript of the preliminary hear
ing at Manhattan, in evidence. The
law governing this was found to be
annulled and this fact will likely
result in number of new lawsuits
regarding past cases when tran
scripts were used as evidence.
At o'clock the court adjourned
until 10 O'Clock. Monday morning.

DOCTOR HAD

IN COLLIE ting
LOCAL PHYSICIAN WOULD TAKE
FEE IN BOARD AND
ROOM

A story is being circulated around
Tonopah concerning one of the most
prominent physicians in this city,
and which shows that there are
divers methods of collecting bills.
Several months a well known To-
nopah lady engaged a cook but the
pay days were postponed and in
stead Of coin of the realm being
paid for the services, only promises
resulted
One morning the lady of the
house arose and on visiting the
breakfast table was astonished to
find that no preparations had been
made for the morning meal. She
hastily went to the hired girls bed
room, where the servant was found
in bed, and who complained of be-
ing i'll. The doctor was summoned
and, after making an examination,
asked the girl if she was really sick.
There was no responce to the inter-
rogation, except a mute look of APP
peal from the patient The mistress
left the room at this time, and the
girl blurted out:
NO, | am not sick, only the lady
owes me three months wages and

100000 LOST AND FOUND.
Express Messengers Error Creates
Embarrassment.

Bristol, Va, Mar. 4--Not until Mon
day when he received orders to resume
his duties, would a Bristol express mes
senger tell him that his suspension was
due to the seemingly mysteriously dis
appearance of 100000 that was being
forwarded in his care to the United
States Trust Company, Washington, D.
c. Wednesday week ago when he
entered the car here for the run to
Norfolk, he found among the valuables
turned over to him five packages OF
currency, containing $4,000 each.
The messenger misconstrued the adj
dress to read United States Treasury,
and recalling that he had instructions
to dispatch all shipments, for the
United States Treasury via Norfolk,
instead of Lynchburg, he carried the
five packages to that point. The mon
ey was due to arrive in Washington to
meet an emergency on the day follow
ing it's departure from here, and is
said to have caused much concern and
embarrassment there by it's failure to
arrive on time.
kilograms were sent out for the mis-
sing money which. it is said, was
not located until Sunday following the
messengers error.

ANOTHER NoIsELESs GUN.
inventor Claims 1t Eliminates the
Recoil and is SmokeIess.

Mortified, VT, March A type of
barrel, which is claimed to kill nine
tenths of the noise of a gun, to elm
mate the recoil and to make black
powder practically smokeless has been
publically demonstrated before men,
bers of the Mortified Gun Club dur
ing the past week.
The inventor, Joseph c. Coulombe.
was graduated from Norwich Universe
ty in 1905 and since then has spent
most of his time in perfecting this de-
vice. He explains that it differs from
the Maxim invention in that the lat
ter is an attachment to be placed on
the end of the gun barrel, while his
device is part of the gun consisting
of a thin steel casing extending the
full length of the barrel.
