Cora Enters
Denial Of

Report that Thomas Cora and
Assemblyman Brogan were fined $40

of $40.

Observation-Disclosures
IN Hearing ofSecond Offence
Of Austrian SIung Shot User

Attorney Zurich yesterday after
noon in the contempt proceedings
before Justice Beck against Steve
Waymovich, Sam Waymovich, Mike
Stiten and Mike Rosovich, cited be-
cause they failed to appear as wit
nesses in the Rodman assault case
Tuesday in obedience to subpoenas;
raised the point of right of Justice
Beck to conduct court in other than
his own district, that of Hamilton.
He has been assisting Justice Mar
riott here at the request of the lat
ter.
When the cases were called for
trial, Attorney Zurich asserted that
Justice Beck had no authority to
act in the premises. In order hat
he might counsel authorities Justice
Beck took the matter under advise
ment until this morning. Before adj
journing court, he remanded the de-
PENDANTS to the custody of the Sheriff
Attorney Zurich objected to this pro-
ceedure, claiming that he would hold
the sheriff liable for false imprison-
ment. The Austrians were not placed
in Jail last night, Sheriff Butler not
desiring to be made defendant in
the threatened damage suit.
The concensus of opinion among To-
cal attorneys is that there is moth
ing on the statute books authorizing
the division of the work in a town
ship between two justices. That one
justice has the right to call in an
other to preside in his stead is not
questioned. This step was taken
when Justice Cartwright requested
Justice Marriott to act for him in
this township during his absence, and
his action was approved by the COM
missioners.
Attorneys who have investigated
the proposition, declare that before
the acts of he visiting Justice can
be sanctioned by law, 1t will be nee
essary for Justice Marriott to call
in Justice Beck to take charge of
the local court. There is no inten-
ton on the part of anyone to ques-
ton the right of Justice Beck to try
my of there cases in his own town
ship. INKV
If it is proven that Justice Beck
has no jurisdiction in this township,
it will be necessary to retry the
cases of Walter c. White, w, E..
Daniels, Jos Zamora and Frank
valenzuela, who ere held to await

Officers Think
They Have a
Murderer

The officers feel confident that
they have captured a man badly
wanted by the Sheriff at Mercur,
Utah, for stabbing a man to death
in that camp about a year gao. Eric
Johnson, who was arrested yesterday
at Riepetown for disturbing the
peace, is said to answer the descrip-
tion of the Mercur murderer.
Johnson is being held in the coun-
ty Jail and the officers at Mercur
have been notified of his arrest, Until
word has been received from them
relative to Johnson's identity, he
will be detained here.
In company with a man by the
name of William Sullivan, johnson
created a disturbance at Riepetown
Both of the men were drunk. They
were arrested by Officers Roberts and
Hudgens and brought to jail.
It is probable that a charge of
damaging county property will be
preferred against the men in addi-
ton to the present charge. When
they were taken into jail they created
a small sized riot and before they
were quieted they had succeeded in
breaking up a stove and damaging
other fixtures.

NEVADA MAN HAS FAITH
IN HIS AIRSHIP.
Former Resident of Tonopah Will
Submit Plans to Patent Office.

J.. r. Froberg, a former resident
of Tonopah, but who now makes
Goldield his home, has perfected the
plans for a dirigible balloon which
he believes will prove of incalcuable
benefit to the government in time of
war. He has sent, or at least will
send his plans on to Washington for
patent. Commenting on the ship
the Go1dfeld News says:
"All aboard the airship for San
Francisco. The next car leaves for
Denver in half an hour"
That is what may after a while
greet the ears of Goldfield people
after the United States patent Office
of this city, who has developed the
final "details of a diroigible balloon
or airship, that he hopes to sooncon-
struct, and the plans of which will
in a few days be proceeding to patent
office. Seventeen years of study
of work, and of hope are embodied
in the plans of Mr.. Froberg. Some
of his ideas, worked out long ago,
are embodied in the Zeppelin and
other European airships. And I'M
less some other American inventors
hurry j. R. Froberg, a Goldfield
man, bids fair to navigate the air
with the first durable, practical and
useful airship. Mr.. Froberg's model
is being packed for the patent Office.

Commission Is
Sued For 9 on
Old Deal

A suit has been filed in the Justice
court by A. J.. Cartwright against
Fred Cole to collect SITS, alleged
to be due as commission on a real
estate deal.
The complaint sets forth that the
real estate firm of Cartwright G Ter
rell was authorized by Mr.. Cole to
sell lot 9 in block 10 of the city of
Ely for $500, the commission to be
5 per cent of the purchase price. A
deal for the lot was consummated
ON February a, 1907.
The firm of Cartwright & Terrell
was dissolved later, and the claim
assigned to Mr.. Cartwright by his
former partner. The complaint al
leges that the commission was never
paid, although e demands
have been made upon Cole for the
sum supposed to be due, but without

NEW EDITION HAND BOOK ISSUE

The eigth annual edition of the
Copper Handbook, just issued by the
author, Horace j. Stevens of Hough-
ton, Mich, is at hand. 1t is an octave
volume of 1900 pages, in BREWER
type, but by slight increase in the
width and height of the printed mat
ter on each page, together with a
reduction in the leading, but with
out using as mailer face of type,
each page carries one-third more
matter than formerly, and the new
edition with 1900 pages, contains
one-half more matter than the pre-
ceding editions, which had 1928
pages.
The principal chapter of the book,
devoted to detailed descriptions of
the copper mines Of the globe has
1885 pages, describing no less than
6767 copper mines and copper COM
panies in all parts of the world, COM
pairing with 1927 listed in the pre-
ceeding editions. This long chapter,
which was unrevised in volume VII,
owing to fire, accident and illness,
has been completely rewritten even
the obituaries of the defunct COM
uanies having been improved by the
addition of neat verbal tombstones.
The price of the copper handbook
is IS, in a strong green buckram
binding, and the selling plan is
unique, as the book is sent to any
one ordering 1t, from any part of the
globe, without a penny in advance,
the purchaser preparing carriags
charges and allowing the purchaser
a weeks inspection. and accepting
the return of the book in settlement
of the charge, IL upon inspection, it
does not prove satisfactory. That
this plan is successful is proven by
the fact that 1t has been followed
for six consecutive years and that
the Copper Handbook now ~circulates
in every country that has a postage
stamp of its own, and is claimed by
the publisher, without recorded con-
tradiction, to enjoy the largest. cir
culation of any mining annual print
ed in any language. Anyone in
tersted in copper, or copper shares
can we'll afford to write MI. Stevens,
ordering a copy of the Copper Hand
book, without advance payment and
subject to approval after a weeks
inspection.

QUESTION AS TO WHICH.

During the heavy weather of the

made it difficult to see any distance.
Question now arises whether it was
fog blown in from the coast or
whether the effect was produced by
low lying clouds which came to the
earth at the mine elevation.
