ANOTHER LIE
is NAILED
(By Associated Press

CARSON, May 2l.-Fearing trOu-
who had gathered to receive the body
of Charles Kaiser. the son of Black
Morse, Washoe Chief. who was
hanged today for the murder of his
wife, the authorities decided to hold
the interment within the walls of the
penitentiary and the red men We're
ordered dispersed. The Indians be-
gan gathering yesterday. All We're
armed and openly declared that they
intended to hold pow WOW when
they received the body. The action
of the whites in interfering with In
dian punishment of Kaiser is resent

The Associated Press correspond

as it did not emanate from Carson
at all and is therefore fake dispatch
over which some ass in editorial guise
stuck the Associated Press line in or

en- words.
Persons cOnversant with conditions
knew it was a lie when they saw ii
ut there are some who would not
know the difference. There is not a
word of truth in the statements thai
any Indians here We're armed: thai
they made any protest or that the
whites interfered with .ne plans for
kaisers punishment by the Indians,
or that there were 500 or 80 Indians

SOLDIERS AT SEATTLE

One of the striking features OF the
opening day at the Alaska-IukOn-
Pacific cXposition-June Twill be
the military sports and exercises with
which the monster stadium AT the
Seattle exposition will formally swing
open its gates.
No such gathering of soldiers in
competition has ever been seen il
the West and seldom in the history
of the nation. One thousand soldiers
supplemented by marines and jackies
will go through all manner Of drills
and evolutions that will mean medals
and cups for the winners, and Will
fight ii out for honors i'll track AM

WARDEN KING
SAVES FISH

Not single line has been cast i'll
Lake Tahoe waters this season, de-
spite the act that the state law plac-
es the opening of the trout taking
season as May lst, and ali on account
OF the magnificent nerve of Game
Warden King, who ranges the waters
or the lake and enfOrceS county or
dinance with threats of arrest to any
one who may desire to take the
speckled beauties from tle ice-cOld
waters of the lake.
While he swings the big stick Ov-
er the ignorant and those who are
not posted in the intricacies of the
law he has equal success with those
tourists wno are fully cOgniZant with
their rights to fish. by pointing out
the fact that the fish are at this sea
son heavy with spawn and that ev-
cry one taken means the lives OF
thousands of young which little
later will be deposited in the side
streams emptying into the lake and
which will insure better fishing in the
future.
The result has been all that can
be desired. No one S attempting to
evade his vigilance, ana the trout are
left undisturbed and will spawn heav,
lily. with the result that this fishing
ground of the world. for people come
from all parts of Europe to see the
gem of the mountains and capture
one or more of its gamy Inhabitants,
will be better stocked with fish next
year than it has been since ii was
first visited by member of the eau
scasian race.-SacramentO News.

be made.
No charges have been preferred
against Gibson, it is stated. and none
have been preferred against DriscolI

probable that a compile G sweep will
be made in the appOintive offices OF
the asylum for the sake Ct harmony
and efficiency.
DR.. Gibson has been in charge OF
the asylum for two terms. There has
heen less scandal and more efficiency
under his management tnan ever be

retain him. No decision had been
made when Nhe board left here.

NOT ME SAYS
NEWMAN

Employees of the state capitol build
ing and grounds held an Indignation
meeting this morning and the janitor
Andy Newnham called at The Appeal
office to disclaim any responsibility
for the grounds or the conditions
thereof.
Newman says he has more work
than he can attend to properly in car
ing for the offices of the capitol, that
he Is required to run messages for ali
the state officials, all the deputies and
all the young women stenographers
and that he works eleven hours
day.
The gardener is supposed to attend
to the lawn, says Newman, and We,
if this is so, stand corrected in that
we mentioned the ianitOr in connec-
ton with the park.
We called the attention of the jan
itOr to the condition of the capitol
building Itself, however, and he made
the statements quoted above in re-
gard to the matter.
From what the employees say it is
up to the capitol commissioners. who
are Governor Dickerson, Secretary OF
State Douglass, State Treasurer Ry-
an and Controller Eggers. 1t is GER
tainly up to some one as the park
looks more neglected than it has for
good many years and the state
building Itself is in need Of renOvat
ing.
The building is to be refitted with
a lot of furniture and on the upper
floor carpenters and paper hangers
are busy so that there is little use OF
doing much cleaning up until they get
through. Both the building and the
grounds will stand lot of hard work
without any great loss in appearance.
