KILLED THEIR STOLEN HORSES

Shelf Clark has received a letter
from Deputy Sheriff Grimm at
Contact stating that he was in
formed several days ago that IS
horses had been killed and buried
in a ravine near San Jacinto, near
where the Indians killed the white
boy several weeks ago, and that
he had been to the place and found
the report true. 1t is Mr.. Grimm's
opinion that after the Indians killed
the boy they drove the stolen
horses they had in the corral when
discovered to this ravinc and shot
them and covered them with a
shallow layer of dirt. Also that the
Indian who was shot at the time was
killed and buried with the horses.
The stencil from the dead horses
was so great that Mr.. Grimm could
not get near enough TO make a
thorough Investigation. He also
wrote that nothing had been heard
from the Indians who killed the
boy and made their escape.

SPARED THE Chief

Andrew Jackson was magnanimous
in his treatment of Weathersford,
the famous Greek chieftain, when
that warrior surrendered.
Weathersford had done all in his
power to prevent the horrible
massacre at Fort Mimms, but most
of the frontiersmen were bitter
against him. and jackson himself
had sworn to put him to death If
he were taken.
One day after the power of his
people had been utterly broken
Weathersford came riding into
J%ackson's camp on his famous gray
horse and stopped in front of the
generals tent.
How dare you ride up to my
tent after having murdered the
women and children at Fort
Mimms?" demanded Jackson in
astonishment.

of his shrewish wife could drive
him to work.
Lem led the lazy life of a Rip
Van Wrinkle until the outbreak Of
the civil war, and then he joined
the Confederate army. At the end
of six months Lem was shot through
the right thigh, and it was long
before he was able to limp out of
the hospital and back to the regi-
ment. In the second year he was
shot in the left sholder, and wien
he returned to duty his left hand
was bent far back by a shortened
tendon, but he was still able TO
raise his rifle. Early in the fourth
year they got him again-a musket
ball through the body-but he was
back in the ranks long before the
fighting was ended. Everyone

LINCOLN N THE SNEATBOl

On one of Mr.. Lincoln's eX-
cursions to Fortress Monroe on the
Hartford in 1868 his attention was
directed to a narrow door bound
with iron, the use of which he was
anxious to learn. What is this?"
he asked.
Oh, that is the sweatbox" was
the reply. 1T is used for re-
fractory and insubordinate seamen.
A man in there is subjected to
steam heat and has very little VEN
tilation. 1t generally brings him
to terms very quickly"
President Lincoln's curiosity was
aroused. This" he said to him.
self lis treatment to which thous-
ands of American seamen are
probably subjectedt to every year.
Let me try it for myself and see
what it really is"
Taking off his hat for he was
several inches over six feet in height,
he entered the inclosure, which
he found to be little more than
three feet in length or width. He
gave orders that at a signal from
him the door was to be Immediately
opened. 1t was then closed and the
steam turned on.
He had been inside hardly three
minutes when the signal was given.
President Lincoln had experienced
enough of what was them regarded
as necessary punishment for Ameri-
cansea men. There was very little
ventilation, and the short exposure
to the hot and humid air had almost
suffocated him.
Turning to Secretary Welles of
the navy department the president
ordered that no such Enclosure as
the sweatbox should ever after be
allowed on any vessel flying the
American flag.
1t was not an hour after this be-
fore every sailor on every ship in
Hampton Roads had heard of it.
The effect was most remarkable
on the older sailors, many of whom
had themselves experienced the
punishment of the sweatbox. Some
of them wept for JOY.
But the good results of this act
of President Lincoln we're not
confined to the American navy.
Greeat Britain, France, Germany
and other European countries heard
the sweatbox had been abolished in
America as inhuman.
One and then another of these
nations fell into line and today the
sweatbox is not to be found on any
vessel flying the flag of a civilz,d
nation.

OwICkERSuNlAA SAOUTERS

Among this weeks arrivals in
this city ere two officials of the
state of Nevada namely, w. B.
Lyon. state auditor, and j. L. Con-
sidine, state bullion tax collector.
Ostensibly. these gentlemen came
here on business connected with
the offices which they now hold.
In reality their visit was for
another purpose-that of looking
after the political fences of the
present incumbent in the governors
office and in the interests of the
Dickerson machine in general.
Auditor Ligon is supposed to
check up the books of the county
officials from time to time; while it
is the duty of bullion Tax Agent
Considine to keep close tab on the
mining companies and see what can
be done in the way Of collecting a
share of the proceeds of the mines
in the shape of a bullion tax. If
the officials had any intentions of
giving attention to official matters
while here they completely forgot
them and shirked duty to instill
Dickersonianism into local dem
ocrats. They seemed to have had a
"wad" along and they left a goodly
portion of it with Phoebe mixolo-
gists. That hospitality of theirs
was simply great and one could
almost imagine it was lear election
time.
We have heard a story to the
effect that these Dickersn lieuten-
ants have learned Ed Prudential
has a following of Lincoln county
democrats who would like to see
him succeed their chief as governor.
With Nicholas, Bartlett and some
more of the conservative democrats
side-stepping Dickerson, they con-
cluded that something had to be
done to put a quietus or the
Freudentha boom; so they came for
the purpose of offering big Ed"
the state treasurer's job if he would
only put Lincoln county into the
Dickerson column. We are also
told that the proposition did not
meet altogether with Eds sanction;
hat he doesn't propose to withdraw
his gubernatorial boomlet at this
stage of the game. At any rate
he is not going to align himself
with the Dickerson bunch or anyone
else right now. OF course if he
doesn't land the governorship
nomination himself, he will take
off his coat and work for the suc-
cessful candidate, whether it be
Dickerson. Nicholas or someone
else. Ed is making no promises
now.

SHOULD WITHHOLD JUDGMENT

The Bonanza does not know
whether Owens accounts arc shor
and will not attempt to make a
gIess on the question until a report
is made. The fact that there is not
sufficient money in his bank account
in Tonopah would not alone prove
his inability to settle, because it is
possible that Mr.. Owens had money
in other banks or other repositories.
1t is possible that if Mr.. Owens
were here, everything could b. set
tied without trouble and salts
factorily explained. 1t is posi-
BILE that Mr.. Ovens is temporarily
suffering from some mental
affliction and has no intention of
absconding or defrauding the county
oil state out of any moneys.
The fact that Mr.. Owens could
have drawn out all of the money
from the Nevada First National
bank of Tonopah, and the further
fact that he left property in his
safe of value. and the further fact
that he left in the town or
eight houses unencumbered, at
least to a certain extent sustains
the theory that Mr.. Owens is men
tally deranged. 1t is more chart
table to withhold judgment, at
least until an Investigation is con-
pleted.
The unexplained absence of NJ.
Owens and the interests of tn,
county may require that the county
commissioners Immediately appoint
a successor to Mr.. Owens. The
Bonanza believes that Vail Pittman,
chief deputy under Mr.. Ovens, is
logically entitled to appointment TO
fill out Ovens unexpired term. He
is absolutely familiar with every
branch of the office and at this
Juncture can mor readily straight
en- out the affairs of the office and
economically administer them. II @
can in no way be held to blame for
Mr.. Ovens conduct or any shortage
in the Office that may exist. 1t is
true that in addition to his other
many duties he kept the books OF
the office, but while he kept them
he only had authority to enter the
money received and paid out. He
had no right to question Mr.. Owens
with regard to the disposition Of
such money. Aa a deputy, that is,
a hired man, it was not his place 10
criticise his employers methods.
There are other county officers
whose duty it is to keep a check on
the sheriff.
The fact that there is a shortage
in the accounts, if there is such /.
shortage, does not mean that tn,
books r not correct. The books
are correct if they show the mon,y
received and paid out.
Mr.. Pittman is not to blame for
Mr.. Ovens acts, and it is cY.
ceedinly unjust to deprive him q
the control of the office during the
remainder of the term. Such a
act would reflect upon his abilit,
or his character. -Tonopah Bonanza

 Related to George V.
 His Most Excellent Majesty George the Fifth, by the Grace of God. of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland, and of 4he 'Critish Dominions Beyond the Seas; King, Defender of the Faith, and Emperor of India, while of German rather than of English blood, can trace his an cestry back by one line to William the Conqueror, and even to Horlf, first Duke Of the Normans, who reigned from 911 to 927 A. D. His gseat-grandfather. the Duke of Kent, was the third son of George III and borother of the vain and foppish George " and the bluff and soldierly William ".
 George V is the thirty-seventh in descent from Alfred the Great, of burned cakes memory, and thirty-ninth from Egbert. the the first King of England.
 The thirty-nine generations from Egbert, to GeorgetV give. at 37 years each, l, ITO years. This would go back to 791 A. D. Egbert actually became king in SOP.
 The genealogy of George V recalls all the, spiendors of the most famous ancient royal house of Europe. In com parision, the other soereigns are of yesteday. The Hohenzollerns, it is true trace theiI lineage for one thou sand years, but the family as- sumed royal dignity only in re- cent times. The Hapsburgs have sat on the throne of Austria for onlg six centuries. The Roman offs have ruled Russia gor less than half that time. The reign ing family of Swepen goes back only to 1910.
 The family that produced George F produced also the great Alfred, the conquering Norman; Sichard. the Lion-Hearted; Ed ward I, the'conqeror of Scotland; Edward III and the black Prince, who humiliated France, and Eliz- abeth, the restorer of England's prestige.
 Whitaker English ''Peerage" gives list of 24O livinn blood relatives of Queen Victoria. grandmother of King George who are scattered amony the kingdoms or princpalitles of Eur ope. The present King of Eng. land is a first cousin of the Ger man kaiser, who is sonof Victoria Adelaide, Queen Victoria s eldest daughter; a brother y7of Hueen Maud of Norway; a nephew of the Qeen of Greece; a first cous- in of the Czfaina of Russia, who is a daughter, the Victoria's se- cond daughter, the Grand Duch- ess of Hesse; uncle to Rueen Ena of Span, and related, thoug more distantly, to practically eveoy re- igning house Europe. The late King Edward made use of this relationship in establishing more intimate diplomatic relations be- tween Dngland and the other great powers.
