ROBBERY LAST night AT
Steve HERzOG'S SALOON

Daring thieves again made raid
on Steve Herzog's Saloon last night,
after he had closed his place of bust
ness. The robbers gained entrance
by using brace and bit. boring
holes around the lock of the kithen
door, which opens into the saloon.
Once inside the thieves fondled and
secured choice bottles of booze and
opened the cash register and took
what. money it contained, making
their escape in the darkness.
Mr.. Herzog has been unfortunate
in having his place robbed number
of times and declares in excited tone
that he has very good idea who the
thieves were and as business has been
thriving at his saloon lately, the
robbers no doubt thought they would
make larger haul than they did.

LOVELOCk Will have ONE
OF BEST PUMPING
PLANTS In State

Superintendent E. L. Stiff, Of the
water system has the new pump and
fifty horse power engine placed on
their concrete foundations at the
pumping house, and as soon as con-
nections are completed will have the
auxiliary plant in readiness to put in
operation at moments notice.
When the old engine and pump have
been thoroughly overhauled and re-
paired Lovelock will have one of
the best pumping plants in the state.
The chief question yet remains; that
of water supply. At present the
we'll will last but a short time, no
water being in the ground from
irrigating bitches, and the. supply
is being drawn from the Old Channel
until the we'll shall be replenished
by the water from irrigation of the
adjacent fields; which eventually
finds its way into the we'll through the
graund.

CENSUS ENUMERATORS ARE
MAKING PROGRESS. CIT

Bright and early last Friday morn
ing the census enumerators started

and that "it comes natural for a
woman to ask questions. Her dis
trict embraces Seven Troughs, Yer

which includes Bartlett Greek, Jack
son Creek, Kings River, Pueblo and
Vicksburg precints. He left Tues

.SWARNER 5
BODY is.
FOUND
Constable Wolf Locates the
Remains Monday Floating
in The River

Constable Phil Wolf and Sam
Pugh recovered the body Monday OF
the unfortunate man, Swarner, who
was drowned in the Humboldt, at
Old Say ford, about twenty miles
from here. The remains were found
floating in the lake about mile from
where he was drowned. Constable
Wolf brought the body, which was
in a bad state of decomposition, to
town in his automobile.
The remains were packed in ice
and Wednesday morning a Coroner's
jury was impanelled and an inquisi-
ton held. The authorities of
Churchill county. where the drown,
ing occurred, were notified and they
wired to proceed with the investiga
ton and bury the body.
Judge Fits, acting as Coroner,
directed DIR. West to examine the
body carefully to determine if there
was any foul play. No marks were
found and it is the general belief the
man came to his death by drowning.
When the clothing was searched, $zi
was found, gold watch and ring
The watch had stopped at 10: so
Mrs. Swarner, the mother, was
notified at Allen, Kan, ofthe finding
of body and the bad state it was in,
and she wired to bury the remains
here. Following this advise, the
body was buried Wednesday in Lone
Mountain Cemetery.

WRECKED
BY TRAIN
Local Sheep Man Gets a
Costly Automobile at
Cheap Figure

Three automobile tourists, who
were using Chalmers-Detroit car,
and travelling from Los Angeles to
New York City, were run down by a
light engine on the railroad bridge
over the Humboldt river, near a sta
ton called Kodac, Monday afternoon
The tourists, three men, got out of
way and were not injured, bnt the
automobile was badly wrecked. The
tourists claimed they tagged the en-
g,neer in time. He did not see them
and hit the machine before he could
stop.
Since the recent flood the railroad
company gave the travelling public
permission to use their bridge while
the wagon bridge is being repaired,
and it is thought now, since this
accident occurred, the company will
not permit the public the use of their
right of way much longer.
The unlucky tourists brought their
wrecked machine to town and sold
it to, Ed. Gamer, local sheep man,
for S45o. They then continued on
their way east by train.
; Eye witnesses of the affair say the
engineer could have stopped if he
had tryed very hard, as he had a
light engine and plenty of time to
make the stop. The machine was
thrown several feet and the great
wonder is that the automobile was
not wrecked more than it is
The tourists were "chewing the
rag" around town, retiring at inter-
walls to mediate, lamenting the fact
they had to dispose Of costly S3,-
900 car for practically nothing.

Than Passing Notice

Editor Tribune
It is quite appropriate to pay hom.
age and respect to the departed.
there are those who have passed away
to whom we should pay special
tribute, amongst these there are but
few who deserve more recognition
for having lived an honest upright
life that is of special note, than he
who has been prominently identified
with mining affairs in our vacinity.
| refer to ithe late Franklin R. Car
penter, Phi. D., | had the pleasure of
knowing him for some few years and
no one more deeply deplores his
demise than l, the loss to this COM
unity is irreparible.
His special qualifications, his great
learning, his remarkable success in
his chosen profession, his many vir-
tues are best expressed by his life long
Friend, he who is the greatest legal
authority in the United States R. S.
Morrison, in the following language;
"The sudden death of DIR. Carpen-
ter at Chicago on the Ist inst. Calls
for some thing more than mere no.
tation of his departure. He had been
my friend for nearly 40 years and |
knew his abilities and their limtati.
ons. He was the only expert | ever
knew who impressed one with the
fact that he understood what he spoke
when he unrolled and read aloun the
book of nature. He was the only
geologist who, ever; impressed nae.
with the fact that What he said Of the
earth was its real history, and not the
mere guess of half formed theory
He was member of the Geological
Society of American and ofthe Ameri-
can Institute of Mining Engineers.
His scientific works have been tran
slated into many languages, and his
reputation as an authority on ores
and their treatment was, and is in
ternational.
His mine examinations extended
from Labrador to Lower California.
He developed the Homestake mine
into one Of the gteat mines of the
world. He made discoveries by
which refractory combinations were
reduced which the books said were
impossible. He solved the problem
of how to bring back to the earth the
life giving forces which cultivation
exhausts in the soil. He made the
reputation of the South Dakota School
of Mines, and it was immaterial
whether he exploited the intellectual
study of philosophy or the mechanics
of the ore digger and the smelter he
was in either field a leader and a
master. He was one of the few min
ing experts who never took COM
mission or contingent fee on sale.
His honesty was of the tried and test
ed kind, not of the negative sort
generous to every one except himself
he made his clients millions and
earned for himself only liberal sup
port and a good name. He was my
best friend in this life, and am
hopeless to find another who can take
his place.
