chased of A. NJ. Cole, the veteran
druggist, the comprehensive collec-
ton of coins, ore and relics that
has long been one of the features
of the Comstock, and has presented
the same to the state university at
Reno. Prof. Young has been here
for several days packing up the
specimens, and they have already
been shipped.
Mr.. Cole has been over 40 years
getting the collection together, and
it was one of the most beautiful of
it's size in Nevada. 1t his great his
torical value, and includes many
rich specimens ofNore collected dur
ing the bonanza days of the mines
and will be a great addition to the
university.
DR.. Cole took great pride in the
collection and it is like parting with
an old friend to let it go. But II
has long been his desire to have the
curios finally go to the university
and as each specimen is to be
marked with Mr.. Coles name, 9

ence in getting the curios together
will thus be established. What is
Virginia City's los is most certainly
the university's gain.

an address here today the president
again expressed his good will to-
ward the south. While doing so, a
gray bearded man in the crowd
called out: God bless you, we all

the old quotation: 1t might be all
right to dissemble your love, but
why did you kick me down stairs?
But I've no fault to find on that
score. The fact that you had so lit
tie to do with putting me where |
am, makes me appreciate the
warmth and sincerity of your re-
ception all the more
The president urged their sup

ditions of honesty and integrity in
business and public affairs, without
regard to party lines.
Mr. Taft left this afternoon fol

PENNSYLVANIA BUTCHER
EXTERNINATES HIS FAMILY
(By Associated Press.1

POTTSVILLE, Pa, Nov. 3.-Dan-
iel Schocke, a butcher of Pine
Grove, last night cut off the heads
of his wife and 12-year-old daugh-
ter and then committed suicide by
shooting himself. The discovery
was made today when neighbors,
who became suspicious that some
thing was wrong, broke open the
front door. They found Schocke
lying on the first floor and the bod
les of the wife and little girl in a
bed on the second floor
A large butcher knife on the floor
showed how the murder had been
committed. Schocke had covered
the bodies with bed clothing and
after writing a note telling what he
had done, he went down stairs and
shot himself through the head. In
his case death was instantaneous.
Schocke was 55 years of age. He
was of rather peculiar disposition
and several times failed in business,
but his relatives came to his assis-
tance each time and gave him a
new start.
Last evening he took his lodge
books to the home of a relative,
along with other possessions, indi-
eating that he premeditated the
deed
