here was put off and Rev. Garrett
was asked to preach, which he did
from the words: Brethren, my
hearts desire and prayer to God is
that Israel might be saved" from
which he got the subject "a passion
for souls" This was a most excel
lent and earnest effort and Rev.
Garnett leaves with a warm place in
our hearts.
Our people, old and young, are
loud in their praises of the fine hos
pitality of the good people of Mo
doc at our recent union.

MAKE FIFTEEN MILE RIDE IN
HEAVY STOsM-BODl FOUND.

WINNEMUcCA. Feb. 1S.-The
body of Henry Miller Nickel, of San

Ter. senior partner In the firm of
Miller Il Lux, was brought to this
city today by Foreman Charles Gro

ney county. Ore. Young Nickel, who
was 20 years of age. was frozen to
death while endeavoring to make the
l. mile journey between the Alvord
ranch and Wild Horse. a village In
the vicinity.
According to the story told by Gro
min. Nickel left the Alvord ranch on
February Z, during a heavy snow
storm His body was found four
days later at point midway be-
tween the ranch and Alv0rd. From
the fact that small pile of twigs
and large number of burnt matches
were found near where the body lay,
II Is thonght that Nickel became cold
during his ride and. dismounting, en-
deavored TO light fire. His matches
gave out and numbed 10 insensibil-
ity by the intense cold he fell asleep
and was frozen TO death. The body
was shipped to San Francisco tonight.

Union and Southern Pacific Affected
by Selling Movement.
NEW YORK. Aug. 2S.-The conflicting
rumors concerning the health of Mr.. Har-
riman found their reflection in a very
irregular opening Of the stock market to-
day.
The Hartman stocks were the most
conspicuous feature. with a loss OF az
points in Union Pacific and in Southern
Pacific. Losses in other active issues ran
from I to IL points.
soon after the opening Union Pacific
made a further fractional decline, placing
It below the low figure of last Thursday.
There was some pressure upon United
States Steel, common, but market move
ments as a whole were rather confusing.
Some disposition was manifest today to
shake off the influence OF Mr.. HarrIman's
health and to consider rather the condition
Of his properties.
Soon after the hour a fresh selling move
nnent appeared in the Hartman stocks
which sent Union Pacific down to 194k.

Southern Pacific down to 12S, a loss Of 2A.
