IS COMMITTED
TO STATE ASYLUM
FOR The INSANE
CHRIS EISLEY ADJUDGED IN
SANE YESTERDAY By LUNA
CY COMMISSION.

c. G. Eisley who was taken into
custody Sunday on charge of be-
ing mentally deranged, was tried
yesterday afternoon in the district
court before a lunacy commission
composed of Drs. {. K. Smith and
C. j. Richards, and ordered COM
mitted to the state hospital for
the insane at Reno. He will be
taken there this morning by Sher-
if d. j. Robb At first it was
thought that Eisley was suffering
from temporary arrangement of the
mind but his actions yesterday were
sufficient to tell that he would be a
dangerous character to be at large.
Eisley has always been consid-
cred an eccentric character. Dur
ing the early days of the camp he
squatted on the lot between the
chief of police Office and Blakes-
lees jewelry store and when his
tent was removed by a body of
citizens and burned, he brought
suit, claiming that $500 in currency
had been destroyed. Unfortunately
for the citizens who were implicated
they had to repay Eisley for his
ALLEGED loss.

ARE TRAVELLING
FROM new YORK TO
SAN FRANCISCO
WOMAN DRIVES HER CAR THE
ENTIRE DISTANCE ACROSS
THE CONTINENT.

Miss Blanche Stewart Scott, Miss
Gertrude Phillips and Harry futile
of New York arrived in Tonopah
yesterday on their trip across the
continent enroute to San Francisco.
The party left New York on May
16 aboard two Overland automo-
biles, and have made the distance
in thirty-nine running days. The
object of the tour is not an endur-
ance contest but it is for the
sole purpose of mapping out a
route for the benefit of parties, who
will make the trip in private cars.
Mr.. futile, who is in charge of the
party, has made a thorough sketch
of the routes travelled, and at the
conclusion of the tour, will COM
pile the data he has gathered.
Miss Scott, who understands
thoroughly the different parts of
her machine. has driven the car
the entire distance travelled, and
will continue to pilot the machine
into San Francisco After a short
rest there she will take trip along
the coast.
Mr.. futile is connected with the
New York office of the Overland
Automobile company, and in des-
cribing the trip yesterday, stated
that so far no great difficulties had
been met, which was contrary to
his expectations. 1t appeared that
parties who had previously crossed
this continent had reported meet
ing with great hardships, all of
which appeared to be greatly ex-
aggerated.
Miss Phillips, who is accompany
ing Miss Scott, is prominent
writer of the east, who has con-
tributed many interesting articles
to the leading magazines. 1t is her
intention to write up a graphic de-
scription of the tour.
The party was met here by Por-
ter Niche. who represents j. w.
Leavitt and company, the San Fran
cisco agent of the Overland COM
pany. Mr.. Niche will accompany
the tourists on to San Francisco.

Omaha as they do Minneapolis
The Omaha grain dealers complain they

originating in South Dakota between tho
Missouri river and the Minnesota state line,
points in southwestern Minnesota and
northwestern Iowa. They desire to have
the grain shipped to Omaha, not particu-
larry for milling or consumption, but for

OF rates which make up the through rates
to the south ana southeast are substantl

Minneapolis where the distance Is the
