BIBLICAL STORY
IS TOLD At The
BUTLER theatre
INTERESTING PROGRAM HAS
BEEN ARRANGED FOR To-
NIGHTS PERFORMANCES.

The program at the Butler the
alter today is as follows:
I'm the Pyrennes' is scenic pic
ture depicting some of the most
picturesque scenery of the famous
Pyrennes mountains; THE Vow, or
Jephthah's Daughter" is a repre-
sentation of the old biblical setory
of Jephthah's daughter. "The
Wallets Vindication" is the story Of
valet who undertook to redeem
his lost fortune by renting his en'
ployer's apartments. The staging
and photography are in perfect
harmony with the subject and it
undoubtedly will please everyone.
"The Men Hater's Club" is a lively
bit of comedy representing a
party of girls who go camping
without a man. All sorts of diff
culties beset them, from spiders to
tramps, and they are at length quite
willing to cease their man-hating
proclivities and permit the boys
to help them out.

7. |. ODDIE WAS DISTRICT
ATTORNEY OF NYE COUNTY
Served One Term In This Capacity and
Received the Princely Sum of $50 a
Month---Later Elected State Senator.

That the Hon. T. L. Oddie, Re
publican candidate for governor,
has always been the friend of labor
is best demonstrated by review
of the conditions which existed in
the early days of Tonopah.
Shortly before the property had
been sold by the original owners,
Butler, Brougher and eddie, they
had granted about 100 leases on the
property and Oddie had been made
manager by the purchasers; num-
Der of serious disputes arose be-
tween the leasers and the company
and it was only Oddie's firm deter
mination and deep-seated desire for
square DEAL that saved the
camp from serious trouble and pre-
vented the leasers from losing a
large part of their ore. He was
always ready to lend his aid to
anybody deserving of assistance and
always ready to fight for those
who needed help. He made a de-
termined fight for high wage scale
and carried his point. When the
Miners union officials came to camp
it was proposed to make SO day
the minimum, this having been the
scale which was being paid in
Douglass and other surrounding
camps. eddie stoutly maintained
that 81 a day should be the min
imum, and after vigorous fight
on his part, the 81 scale was adopt
ed, the result being a high-class OF
miners in the camp, good wages
and contentment. He has always
insited on these conditions with the
thousands of men he has employed
and his efforts and actions in this
direction have justly won for him
the friendship of the working men
throughout the state, and wherever
you meet a miner and mention
Oddie's name you will hear the
miner say, "Oddie has always beer
the friend of the man who works
and has always stood for square
deal; he is our friend"
During the first years of Tonopal
he was elected to the office of dis
trict attorney of Nye county, re
ceiving the unanimous vote of it
citizens and receiving a salary 0
$50 per month payable in scrip

MAY BATTLE
FOR WOMAN'S LOVE
IN RENO town
DESERTED HUSBAND AND sue.
CESSFUL LOVER SCHEDULED
TO MEET.

Indications point to Reno being
the center of attraction wherein a
big scrap will be pulled off in the
near future. TIE fight will not
attract such crowd as the JEFF
ries-Johnson fiasco, but nevertheless,
it should prove more interesting.
The participants in the coming
battle will probably prove to be
Jesse vertrees and C. c. Cart
wright. Vertrees is after revenge,
for Cartwright decamped with his
wife. The two men nearly mixed
it here in Tonopah, and but for the
interference of the police, the I'M
dertaker might have had case.
The latest report on the affair
comes from Goldfield in an article
which appeared in the News OF
that city. The article is as fol-
lows:
1.-THE Vertrees family seems des.
tined to engage the attention of the
Nevada officials, so long as they
continue within the confines nf the
state. After being released from
the county Jail. where he had
served one year for being mixed
up in the badger game" here
Jesse Vertreets left Goldfeld and
arriving in Tonopah. where he
found his wife in the company Of
another man, started a gun play
which caused his hasty departure
from that camp. He then pro
ceeded to Reno.
Saturday night C. c. Cart
wright, formerly a barber in thi'
camp. who had been Mrs. Vertrees
companion since she left Goldfield
started a fight in a gambling hous,
in Tonopah. and after beating III
an old man left town before tn,
officers, who had a warrant for hi
arrest. could intercept him. H
and Mrs. Vertrees are presumed t
: have gone to Reno. where Their

lar). Out of this princely stipend
he had to pay all the expenses Of
the Office, including deputies, fuel,
light and other incidentals, which
resulted in the loss of several thou
sands of dollars to him, but he
served out his term not only with
credit to himself but to the salts
faction of all the citizens of Nye
county. He went down in his pock-
ct each year to pay the expenses
of the office.
In 1904 he was elected state SEN
atcr from Nye county and served
through three seasons of the legis-
lature and made a record for him
self which commanded the respect
of even those political leaders who
were opposed to him. He sacri-
feed a fortune in serving his coun-
ty in this way, as his business af-
fairs suffered severely during his
absence from the southern part of
the state at most critical time,
but being made of the stuff which
enables men to stick to their posts
of duty. no matter how great the
sacrifice may be, he completed his
term.
Oddie has made several millions
in his mining ventures and has
invested it in many mining and
other ventures within the state. he
has brought millions of dollars of
outside money into the state, and
has been one of the most active
men that Nevada has known for
many years.
Mining has not been the only in
dustry in which eddie has taken a
lively. interest; agriculture and
stock-raising having engaged his
attention to a considerable extent
and he has spent large amount
of money retaining desert lands
and bringing in blooded cattle and
horses to the state, and has always
evinced deep interest in anything
that would be for the betterment
of the state and its people.
He has had wide experience il
practically every branch of business
that has been conducted in the
southern mining camps and in thu
ranching communities and is espe
cially will fitted to fill the offic,

PEACE EFFORTS FAIL
General Strike Continues at
Philadelphia,

Philadelphia, March 16.-"The con-
ferences with George H. Earle have
not resulted in any plan or suggestion
for the settlement of the carmen's
strike, and negotiations are therefore
to be considered ended" was the Of
fetal statement issued by the general
strike committee of ten.
President E. E Greenawalt of the
State Federation of Labor issued call
to labor unions in all parts of the state
to take general strike vote and hold
themselves in readiness to respond to
call for a statewide sympathetic
strike, which was authorized at the
recent convention of the State Fed
Grafton of Labor held at Newcastle, Pa.
There was no change in the general
strike situation.
The K9rsington textile district re-
mains practically tied up, and the
workers in this district were joined
by 400 grocery clerks, most of whom
were employed in the syndicate stores
in that locality.

tains that it's service is growing better

dents, however, in one of which an I'M
identified woman was struck by car

on Western Railroads
viii Not Go Out
ACCEPT OFFER OF MEDIATION
Differences to Be Arbitrated Un-
der the Erdman Act.

Chicago, March 16.-Danger of an
Immediate strike Of $4,000 locomotive
firemen, the throwing out of employ.
ment of more than $4,000 other en-
ployes and the temporary suspension
of business on practically every rail
road system between Chicago and the
Pacific coast was averted through the
acceptance of offers Of mediation from
the federal authorities at washington.
At the request of the general man
ayers of the forty-seven Western rail
roads involved, Chairman Martin A.
Knapp of the interstate commerce
commission and Commissioner of La
Dor C. P. Neill telegraphed an offer of
federal mediation to the brotherhood
officials. This offer was accepted, w.
s. Carter, president of the Brother
hood of Locomotive Firemen and En-
ginemen, stipulating, however, that &C
ton must begin without delay.
The appeal to Washington was taken
as an eleventh-hour move to prevent
a walkout, which, it was declared,
threatened the greatest railroad strike
since that of 1894 Thirty seven mem
bers of the Western federated board
of the brotherhood formally voted for
a strike. The hour for striking had
been set for next Monday morning and
the members were prepared to start
for their homes, some of them as far
as the Pacific coast, to put the strike
into action, when the mediation steps
were taken.
Mediators to Meet in Chicago.
1t is stipulated that the mediators
will come to Chicago. According to
Mr.. Carter their function will be, not
to arbitrate the matters in dispute,
but to determine what shall be arbi-
trated. The questions involve wages,
which both sides have agreed upon as
arbitrable, and two other technical
points, involving promotion and rep
resentation in the union, which the
brotherhood contends are, but which
the railways assert are not, arbitrable.
eff the mediation falls through the
strike will go right on as planned,
said Mr.. Carter. The acceptance of
mediation was contained in the fol
lowing telegram sent by the brother
hood to Charles P. Neill commissioner
of labor, and Martin A. Knapp Of the
interstate commerce commission.
MATTERS in controversy involve
conditions of employment and increase
in wages. Committee preparing to
leave city, but if assurance is given
that mediation will begin Immediately
and in the city of Chicago authority
for the men to leave the employ of
the company will be temporarily with
held The fact that we have imposed
on all matters in controversy and the
fact that the managers committee
has rejected our proposition does not
lead our men to expect settlement
from mediation, but, as evidence of
our fairness, will accept your friendly
offices under the conditions named
herein"

Of Denver, who came here to meet
Colonel Roosevelt, had an interview
with the latter and presented him
with petition from the chambers of
commerce of Kansas City and other
Western cities, asking the former pres
ident to return to the United States

welt replied it would be impossible for
him to accept the suggestion, owing to
his engagements, including his pres
ence at the marriage of his son Theo-
dore Roosevelt, Jr., to Miss Eleanor
B. Alexander, which is to take place in
June. If possible, however, he said
he would visit Denver and Cheyenne
