at Virginia City.
Benner, who was only 10 years of
age, came out of the Chollar crop
pings the properties of the Buffers
company, by whom he was employed,
with several other miners for his
monday meal He entered CORFU
gated iron covered building at the
mouth of the tunnel, across the roof
of which was stretched broken ell
ectric light wire.
AS Benner stepped upon one of
the rails running along the ground
into this. building he leaned against
the side of the structure, lined with
the metal. Instantly a circuit was
formed through his body, by stimuli
taneous contact with the metal
charged by the wire, where the in
sulation had worn off, and the full
force of the electric current pass
ed through his form, causing instant
death.
Benner's body was terribly burned
and the current had to be shut off
before his body could be taken away
from it's position. The report that
two of his companions met a similar
fate, proves untrue, though they had
a narrow escape.

THEFT LET
FRAUD OUT
GREED OF ROBERTS BROTHER
LEADS TO UNDOING OF BOTH
CHIEF SWINDLER CHARGES
TREACHERY.

LOUISVILLE, Ky, Aug 21.-
Louisville & Nashville railroad and
dishonor among thieves are among
the causes revealed today for the ar
rest of John Roberts, the Million
Peso" counterfeiter
Roberts, confessedly chief maker
of the spurious notes, was readily To-
Gated near Simpsonyille, because the
agent, approached by Deputy United
States Marshal Biaires, remembered
that "fat guy in alighting from a
train some days before, had called
him '.old sport"
The treachery aseribed by John
Roberts is against his brother, Marion
who, he says, stole some of the Mex
ican notes from the trunks and used
them to make the proposition to j.;
M. Fetter &c Co. Louisville brokers';
which led to Marion's capture.
John Roberts, who with his broth
er, is in Jail under a $4,000 federal
bond, declared that when he made
his million, he had considered 1t.
enough for any man and had, one
dark night, sunk the plates in the
Ohio river -.
John Roberts examined Mexican
money carefully when he was en-
ployed as engineer on a Mexican rail-
road and for the last five years, in
New York, he had been experiment
ing in the making of pesos until his
work became almost perfect.

MRS. Blanche Heslip has employ
ed attorneys who will begin a fight
to secure for her daughter the estate
of Thomas Heslip, father Of the girl,
who killed himself at Goldfield, New,
several days ago.
Heslip was a relative of Lord and
Lady Dufferin. He came to the Unit
ed States in the eighties, and in New
Mexico was married to Miss Blanche
l.. Gallagher.
In 1902. Mrs. Heslip obtained a
divorce. She says Heslip never con-
tributed to her support, also, she was
granted 500 a month. Heslip did
not leave a will, and as his wife, who
was shot by Patrick Casey, died first,
attorneys for Mrs. Heslip say that her
daughter can recover the entire es-
tate. Relatives of the second Mrs.
Heslip have attempted to take pos
session of the estate, which is said
to be worth $1,000,000.

MAYOR MCDONALD WOULD HAVE
CITY PAY THIS RESPECT TO

Mayor d. c.. Mcdonald last even

him that in respect to the memory
of the splendid pioneer woman, the
kindly, warm hearted neighbor, ever
ready to lend an assisting hand to
those about her, he hoped that his
official suggestion and request as
mayor of the city that, its business
houses close their doors during the
hours of the funeral of Mrs. w. N.
McGill on Tuesday afternoon would
meet with general adoption.
ut is the last tribute we can pay
to the departed woman, so much be-
lived I'm this community and SO de-
serving of the love and esteem which
all accorded her." said the mayor,
''and 1 hope that closing at least
from 1 o'clock to o'clock will pre-
vail as a token of our respect. All
should have the opportunity to attend
the funeral services and pay their
last respects to the departed. In
the suggestion which l make, l know
I have the full endorsement of the
city council and of all city officials,
and l believe that the business COM
will join heartily. Besides
the respect extended to the dead, we
will find means in this manner to
give expression in some degree to
the sympathy which we all feel for
the bereaved family"

the situation throughout that region

Foolish, optimistic fellow, looking sum-

Signs of spring are these. yet, mark you,

When you banker for the country and a

NEW ASTRAL LAW.
Boston House Painter Thinks 1t VIII
Revolutionize ChronolonieaI System.

Robert j. Hodge, a house painter of
Franklin Park Boston, has invented
an astral calculator based on what he
claims as his discoveM of a new astral
law, which he believes will revolution
ize the worlds chronological system
According to his theories the season
changes are not caused by the earth's
revolution around the sun, but rather
by yearly revolution of the sun in an
orbit apart from the earth and by a
balance motion of the earth on its
equatorial axis.
Hodge has Travelled across the Unit
ed States, taking observations to veri-
fly his theory. Under this calendar
year would consist of exactly 364 days,
with each fourth month, beginning
with March, consisting of exactly thir-
ty-one days, the other eight months Of
thirty days. He has worked out new
astral calculator to take his observa-
