EXPECT TO SECURE JURY
BY MONDAY NIGHT
Mullally's Acquittal Said to Have Been
Due in Large Measure to His
Attorneys Eloquence.

Good progress is being made in se-
curing jury to try Bernard Clark, in
dicted for the murder Of Sol Hendra at
Chafey last December. Court adjourn
ed this morning until 10 O'Clock Mon
day, to permit all hands to attend the
May day festivities. At the time Of
adjournment the jury box was full,
but no challenges had been used by
either side. By those in a position to
know, it is thought the jury viii be Sc
cured Monday.
rather amusing incident Cat least
to the spectators) occurred shortly be-
fore noon Wednesday. A man with .
sheepish look entered the court room
ana attempted to slide into the jury
box without attracting attention. He
finally took a seat in the far corner
the box, but his presence did not
escape the vigilant eye Of Judge Jones,
who thundered:
"Your Honor, who isztasst mani"
"Not having had the pleasure Of
an Introduction to the gentleman, the
court is unable to state" was the quiet
response of Judge Pike.
An investigation followed, which re-
vealed the fact that the individual in
question was belated juryman who
had been passed the day before, and
who had oversight. In view Of the fact
that no great damage had been done,
he was let off with warning.
Upon the denial Of the motion made
by Attorney Warren, counsel for Hul-
|lally, last Tuesday,for the court to in
struct for an acquittal, defendant 3 case
was sumbitted in less than half sa isoaEs
In summing up, Mr.. Warren made one
of the most mastery addresses ever
listened to in Humboldt county. That
lit had its effect, is evidenced by the
fact that the jury was out less than
half an hour and took but one ballot,
bringing in a verdict of not guilty.
Without money or friends, it was a
very fortunate thing for Mullally that
the court appointed to defend him 30
able and conscientious lawyer as Mr..
Warren.

LOCAL SOCIETY DANCES
OFF THE CHURCH DEBT
Many Persons Present From Out OF
Town-List Of Those Who
Were There.

The ball given at the Nixon opera
house last evening by the ladies of the
Episcopal Guild was one OF the largest
attended functions ever given in Win
nemucca. About 80 couples partici-
pated in the dancing, many being from
out of town.
The floor arrangements were under
the supervision of George Rose, DIR.

the large crowd in most satisfactory
manner.
During the entire evening refresh
ments were served in the theater din
ing-room, under the direction of Mrs
w. L. Samuels and Mrs. l.. Wilcox, as
sisted by Mesdames G.. w. Muller and
F.. G. Hoenstine.
Dancing was kept up until 1880 q.
m, when all departed, generally ex-
pressing themselves as having had a
good time.
1t is too early as yet to give the net
receipts of the ball, but it is the opin-
ion of the ladies Of the Guild that It
will be of sufficient proportions to pay
off the remaining Indebtedness of the
church.

WILL BE GREATEST
CAMP ON EARTH

Without doubt Winnepucca is a very
staid town, little given to excitement
Thursday s. w. Gundaker and Frank
Stahl arrived from National, bringing
with them about $50 pounds of high.
grade. Yesterday morning word was
passed about town that the rock was
being crushed at Hubbard IS assay Of
fee, but few people took the time to go
and examine the ore.
The rock was crushed into small
fragments, each of which was worth
approximately $5. The gold could
easily be seen with the naked eye, and
it was estimated that the lot would av-
erage $40 per pound. In speaking of
the new camp and it's prospects, s. w.
Gundecker, president of the National
Mining company, said:
"You may soon look for stampede
to the new camp We have recently
sent out samples to all the mining
journals of the country. and as soon
as they have given description Of
the ore in their papers, the people will
begin to pour in. There is a large
area of country included in the new
gold fields, which extends from Rebel
Creek to National, and as soon as this
is all taken up and development work
has commenced, you may look for a
fulfllment of my prophecy, made in the
Silver State News some months ago, to
the effect that Winnemucca was des-
tined to become the greatest mining
center on this continent, if not in the
whole world''
Have you got a great deal of this
$70-per-pound ore, Mr.. Gundeckers' in
quired the reporter.
"As to that it is hard to say was
the reply. cat present there is about
$25o,000 of the high grade in sight. -

The Oldest man in the county and per-
haps in the state, "passed over the great
divide" on Friday last about IL a. M,
when when Uncle Hugh Caldwell died.
He was born in Lock Haven in 1903 or
1904. As near as his age can be traced
his age would be 105 or 1906 years.
He was married to Mary Logue and to
this union were born twelve children Of
whom seven are still living, tour sons and
three daughters. Frank cf Farmers
Valley; John, Hugh, and William of
First Fork; Mrs Geo. Beckner of Lau-
rel, Miss; Mrs. Sinsbaugh Of Sweden
Valley and Mrs Walters OF Cross Fork,
all Of whom were at the funeral, except
Mrs Beckner and Frank lie left a
large number of grand children and great
grand children. He came here when he
was % years old, at the time everything
had to be "poled in canoe from Lock
Haven and had lived here since. Fun
eral services were held by Revs. Brownlee
and Fowler of Costello and interment
made in Gilmore Cemetery by the side of
his wife who died number of years ago.
G. f. Logue is making great prepara-
rations for entertaining bear hunters when
the season opens and he has about 20
applications for room from hunters in
this state and Ohio. If they get bear
a piece it will thin out the crop of bears
considerable.
Jesse Logue picked over 80 quarts OF
ginseng berries in his ginseng garden last
week and the rats destroyed quite lot
of them besides.
We have bad no frost to kill green
tomato vines, and the farmers are Just
cutting and shocking their field corn and
buckwheat Potatoes about half crop.
One ofC. Il. Logue's hens hid nest
away some time ago and when found it
had nine eggs. lie kept missing eggs
till there were only three left. One
night he heard the hen making noise
and lit a lantern and went out and was
surprised to find big black snake had
the old hen by the hind leg and was try
ing to swallow her. lie killed the snake
and liberated the hen. The snake was
about six feet long. How is this for
