CHARGED WITH DISCRETION.
Divorce Proceedings Revive Scandal
Regarding Grundy County Man.

spectral u VI IIIeS-ItepuDllCdH.
Iowa Falls, Aug. 23.-An action in
court for divorce brings into the
limelight again the affairs of Henry
Frerichs, a prominent Grundy county
man who suddenly disappeared last
spring, and it is claimed took with him
$4,000 in negotiable papers and money.
The action for divorce, brought by Mrs.
Frerichs, charges the recreant husband
with adultery and names Mary Tschirgi
as correspondent. The petition also
charges that the husband deserted his
family and absconded leaving town in
company with Mrs. Tschirgi. The prop
erty of the missing man was estimated
at 100000, but when his obligations are
settled and settlements made in his
various partnerships, it is thought the
net balance, which the wife claims in
her petition, will fall far below the
100000 which Frerichs is said to have
pocketed when he decamped.

Advertising rates made known upon application

"The editor of a newspaper
is often accused of leaving out
certain items of news purposely,
because of a dislike Of the person
to be mentioned, or from prelude
or another cause. This is all
bosh. The editor has something
like a million different things to
think Of in connection with the
issue of the paper and it is not
surprising if he misses an item
occasionally or sometimes for
gets one which has been called
to his attention. Nine out of ten
people you ask for news items
will tell you they can't think of
any. But in most cases they
expect the editor to think of
them all and c~riticise him if
he fails in a single item. The
best way is to give the editor
credit for what he does find and
mention and for some things
that he finds and doesn't men
tion."

EXCURSION IS
DECLARED OFF

Since the announcement last
week that the ball team would run
a special train to Reno next Sun
day, circumstances have arisen
which prevents the carrying out of
the plans. 1t appears that the
Elks outbid the Reno ball team
and gained possession of the ball
grounds at Moana springs for that
day.
The fact that it has become ne
cessary to call off the excursion is
deep disappointment to about two
carloads of people who had plan
ned to spend that day in the
Riverside town.

Notice.

The special train which was to
be run to Reno Sunday by the ball
club has been postponed until
probably the second Sunday in
June. This postponment is due
t. the fact that the Reno team
with whom the Gardnerville nine
was to play ball lost their option
ON the ball park through some in
advertency and were obliged to
call the game off. Further an
nouncement will be made as soon
as more definite arrangements are
made.

Evade GardnervilIe TO Lower

Champs.

Next Sunday, May %, the Ne
vada Press nine of Carson will
clash with the Gardnerville team
for the first time this season. The
game will take place on the Gard
nerville dim md and should be
very warl.ay contested. Last
season the Carson team was no
match for the speedy players
representing Gardnerville, but
this year they have much better
team. Last Sunday Carson de-
feateA the Reno Ramblers in a ten
inning struggle, which would seem
to indicate that they are rather a
strong seam.
As to the home team they have
have lost two games to the Indians
thus far, but in both cases they
made garrison finishes which shows
that the home team is always
dangerous not knowing the spirit
of defeat. There will be two new
faces in the lineup which should
materially strengthen the team in
its weakest spots.
The management desires to an
nounce that benches will be con-
structed this week for the accom-.
mediation of the ladies and some
men. These will be placed where
there will be little or no danger
for those occupying them and af-
fording good view OF the game at
the same time. The usual ad
mission fee of % cents will be
charged.

Does Much
Damage

During n fierce electrical storm
that ragged rec, ntly in the Pine
Nut section, tightening struck a
large tree near the Anderson
ranch now owned by A. Clock,
scattering bark and pieces OF the
tree for a great distance. Some OF
the flying pieces were hurried
through the windows of the house,
completely demolishing them. In
on5 instance the window sash was
completely torn away.
AT the time of the storm Mrs.

frightened almost into hysteria'
Mrs. Clock WAS struck by the
tightening and one of her legs was
paralized for several hours after

they never again wish TO go

TACT that tightening never strikes

EXPRESS co.
ON THE CARPET
We're Called Before Railroad Com.
mission Yesterday to Show
Why Rates Should Not be
Reduced.

The State Railroad Commission
Yesterday had vice-president and
general manager, of Wells Fargo
3 Co., on the carpet yesterday to
show cause why express rates in
Nevada should not be materially
reduced.
This is the first time, with one
exception, that the Wells Fargo
company has ever had a question
raised as to its right to charge all
the traffic will bear on business
within this state and the notice 10
come in and show up was a shock !,
to say the least, says the Appeal.
Nevada has paid many thon-
sands of dollars into The Golfers OF
this company. There are some
who are unkind enough to say that
all this money has b IN pure graft
added to the regular transporta-
ton Facilities and that the service
rendered by express companies
should be given by the railroad
itself without extra charge, simply
as fulfillment of its duty as a
public utility.
With this promise, il is easy to
see where the express company will
get off in this state should that
line he followed as the reason for
inquiry. 1t is not too much TO
predict that the time will come
when railroads will give the same
service as express companies do
without an extra charge for that
service. Such system will wipe
out heavy tax now paid by
shippers.of Nevada and the ship
pers of every other state in the
Union

and has the credit of writing the
largest insurance policy ever issued
by any company in Nevada, was
in this Valley a few days ago from

Like many other new visitors to

pletly surprised to find so fine a
farming section as Carson Valley
presents. 81 have lived i'm Reno
for number OF years and did not
know that Nevada could boast of
such grand valley" said Mr..
Cane "and | most firmly believe
that our Reno papers should de-
vote more space to the agricultural
resources of Nevada than what
they do. DO not think from this
| mean that they should say less
about our mines, because in this
respect they cannot say too much,
knowing that Nevada comprises
one of the richest mineralized por-

rock being found from beneath

AS was predicted in this paper
last week, big crowd turned out
Friday evening to witness the play
given under the auspices of the

ist church. Each and every per-

and from the chairman of the

ones, with their amusingl parts,
brought forth continued applause
from the audience. The vocal and
instrumental music which was
rendered between acts was up 10
the usual standard of excellency

charmed their hearers.
While we do not know the ex-
