GOLDFIELD IS
COMING EN- MASSE
TO BALL GAME
SOUTHERN CITY TO SEND LARGE
DELEGATION TO ROOT FOR
THEIR PLAYERS.

From reports received in this city
from Goldfield it appears that the
whole town of Goldfield is coming
over to Tonopah Sunday to witness
the game of baseball between the
Tonopah Volunteers and the Gold
field nine The crowd is coming
ostensibly for the purpose of root
ing for the home boys.
Never before perhaps in the his
tory of baseball in southern Ne
vada has a livelier interest been
taken in a game of the national
sport. There is a keen rivalry be-
tween the two towns as to the re-
spective merits of it's ball tossers.
When the game is called Sunday, the
largest crowd ever seen at the local
grounds will be in attendance. From
beginning to end the game promises
to be, interesting from the stand
point of good baseball as we'll as
from the fact that Tonopah fans
will be out in numbers to yell
harder for the local team than the
Goldfield contingent does for it's
heroes.

MINERAL EXHIBITS AT MINING
CONGRESS WILL Be GREAT

in the dining room, there are $50
square feet of table space, which
will be enlarged upon if it becomes
necessary.
The commission is anxious that
all exhibitors will have their ores
in before the fourth of September.
After that time it will be impossible
to guarantee a proper. classification.
Parties will govern themselves ac-
cordingly and act at once. The cat
alogue will be placed in the hands
of the state printer on the date men
toned. As it will require some
time to print the catalogue, it will
be seen that delays will seriously
Interfere.
Mr.. Smith states that the exhibit
at the present time is a magnificent
one. With the additions now on
the way to Goldfeld, it is safe to
say that never before in the history
of mining has more beautiful and
costly collection of ores been got to-
gether.
Tonopah will be allotted very
prominent place. The exhibit from
this district is one of the finest that
will be seen at the congress. State
Mine Inspector Ed Stuart has writ
ten to Mr.. Smith that he has Sc
cured the model of the first square
set ever introduced in the mining
world. 1t is the property of the
Consolidated California and Virginia
mine, on the old Comstock The
letter states that the model is to be
placed with the Nye county exhibit.
Just what the reason for this is is
not stated. However, it will be a
valuable addition.
There is not the slightest doubt of
the success of the congress. Word
from the outside is to the effect
that there will be an attendance of
at least 1000 people.

According to Branch Smith, one
of the official solicitors of specimens
for the American Mining congress,
Goldfield is going to have on dis
play unquestionably the finest ex-
hibit of mineral-bearing ores that
the eyes of man ever gazed upon.
Goldfleld is fairly outdoing itself
in it's efforts to make the congress
an unqualified success. The spacious
dining room of the Casey hotel has
been transformed into what has been
termed the Mineral Palace" while
the Office and bar room each will
contain valuable exhibits.
Traversing the center of the din
ing room is cabinet thirty-seven
feet long, three feet wide and in the
neighborhood of six feet high. 1t is
Enclosed in glass and contains fifty
square yards of space. The shelves
are covered with muslin, making an
excellent light effect In the even
ings the exhibit will be illuminated
with 112 32-candlepower lights. This
cabinet will contain the high-grade
ore and will be sealed.
The Office will be used for those
specimens that are to be turned
over to the Mackay school of mines
at the Nevada state university, while
the barroom will house the magnifi-
cent collection of Mrs. Helen Schnei-
der of Eureka, Nevada. This COL
lection is valued at 100000. 1t has
been on display at the principal ex-
positions held in the United States
in the last twenty years. Mrs.
Schneider's husband was a collector
of ore specimens and spent many
years in the gathering of the sam
Piles. 1t alone would make an at
traction we'll worth going many
miles to see.
In addition to the cabinet space

men CHARGED
With MURDER in
The LOCAL JAIL
LOCAL PRISON HAS FOUR MEN
WHO MUST ANSWER TO
SERIOUS CRIMES.

All records of the Nye county Jail
have been broken so far as the num-
Der of prisoners therein charged
with murder is concerned. At the
present time there are four men be-
hind the bars in the court house on
the hill who, if found guilty of MUIR
der in the first degree, will have to
answer for their crimes with their
lives.
Two of the prisoners are from the
adjoining county of Esmeralda,
while the other two are held to
answer for killings in this county.
For some time past an Indian and
Mexican have been in durance vile
in the jail for murders committed
on the desert out from Rhyolite and
charged to them. Each was bound
over by the grand jury. They are
now awaiting trial.
Sheridan, another of the men
charged with murder, was brought
over from Goldfield at the time Pat
rick Casey was hurried across the
desert to the county seat of Nye
county to prevent an angry mob
from meteing out summary judg-
ment.
Sheridan is communicative con-
corning his crime. Before the
trouble came upon him he was gen.
orally respected. Friends of the
couple say that the domestic rela-
lions of himself and wife were of
the most harmonious order. Each
seemed to bask in the sunshine of
the others affections. One night
he went home in a condition of
drunkenness. When eating time
arrived several attempts were made
to arouse him. Finally he arose
and with butcher knife in hand at
tackled his wife, with the result that
she died from the injuries received.
He was arrested and is awaiting
trial. Sheridan still has many
friends who are working in his be-
half. He looks forward to favor
able consideration by a jury of his
peers.
The crime which placed Patrick
Casey behind the bars is of too re-
cent occurrence to warrant a recital
in these columns.
The Mexican is there because he
is accused of having killed two
white men near the California line
and within the county of Nye. He
is unable to speak understandingly
in English, consequently it is i'm
possible to CLEAN the facts from him.
1t is alleged that he was associated
with another in the crime, but up
to this time the man who assisted
in the murder has not been found.
The fourth is an Indian said to
have murdered another of his race
few weeks ago at Pahrump The
details connected with this case. if
they are true, reveal tale of blood
thirstiness surpassed only in it's
brutal aspects by the Casey tragedy.
Time will tell the story. The
days leading up to the trial will
measure as years to those who are
on the seat of anxiousness wonder
ing, no doubt, whether freedom,
life Imprisonment or death awaits
the recital of the case against them.

Heinrich COnried
 Dies This Morning

Meran, Tyrol, Austria, April 27- Heinrich Conried. former director of the Metropolitan Opera House in New York, who suffered an apoplectic stroke several days ago, died at 2:30 o'clock this morning.
 New York, April 27.-Plans to bring the body of Heinrich Conried, former director of the Metropolitan Opera House who died early to-day in Meran, Austrian Tyrol, to New York for bur ial. are being laid by his relatives and friends in this city. Frederick w Sherling, brother-in-law of the late inn pressari said the funeral in all likeli- hood will take place here.
 Herr Conried was, in his youth, a weaver, and won his first fame as a stage director in his native country, coming to New York in 1878 to take charge of the Germania Theatre. In 1892 he became head of Irving Place Theatre. resigning in 1903 to become director of the Metropolitan The most noted productions under his di- rectorship were ''Parsifal'' and tSa- lome." He resigned a year ago, his health broken through the difficulties and anXieties incident to his position.

expound the rules of the game He talked of the battery, he1ders, base men, coaches, umpire and the man at the bat, saying among other things: For the sake of the team and for the sake of the game, stand up to the plate If you can't line out home run maybe you can drop a Texas leaguer bach of second that will do almost as much good. But bend every effcrt to meet the ball and rot to fan out when there are men on bases waiting to score.
 There may be two or three men on bases with two men out and two strikes against the batsman in the last half of the ninth. You've seen the situation right here in Spokane. Your hit which may seem a small thing in itself, will mean victory for some one while your failure to connect with the ball results in defeat for the others as well. Fight until the last man is out; God Almighty doesn't like quit ter.
 .I am a patron of baseball because I like the game: because it affords relief from the nerve-racking tension of business, and because we have no American sport that is absolutely free from taint If it is to be kept clean the good people must line uD in front
