There is genuine regret on the part of the
administration that Judge Charles Z. Ma
coon has been compelled to decline the
Office Of Vice-Governor General OF the Phil
iDpines to which. in the offer of the Presi-
dent, was added the post of secretaryshp
Of Commerce and Police, so that the total
compensation Of the post would have
amounted TO $1,000 a year. Judge Mason
declined the tender on the advice of his
physicians, VINO believe ne should not at
tempt to reside in the tropics again until
two years have elapsed, since his return
from Cuba. After completing his service
as Provisional Governor of Cuba. Judge
Magoon went to Bad Nauheim TO take the
waters. and was there urged not to &C
cept any post which would involve resi-
dence in the tropics for the time stated. It
IS generally expected that when that period
shall have elapsed Judge Nagoon viii again
be urged 70 become q member of the Phil

and experience have especially fitted him,

than ordinarily interested. u q. II.

FLOODS PLAY HAY-
OC With TRAFFIC

Floods during the past few days have
caused serious delay in traffic on the
Southern Pacific. Nos. and 8, due
here Thursday evening, did not arrive
until afternoon yesterday, while No. s
was delayed at Golconda until 4:30
this afternoon, railroad time. The de-
lay of the last-named train was caused
by two washouts, the most serious of
which was at point three miles east
Of town, the other at the east end of
the yards.
Nos. 8 and 10 arrived yesterday af-
ternoon from the west, but were held
at this station, and all day long the
streets have been thronged with i'm
patient travellers, who were making
the best of the situation. Nos. and
4 arrived at Inlay on time this morn
ing, but were held at the terminal for
several hours, arriving in Winnemucca
shortly after noon. At o'clock this
afternoon the repairs were practically
completed and traffic was again resum-
ed. No. is expected to arrive at $50,
having left Golconda at 4:30. It il ex-
pected that all other trains will be
about on time.

THE ALASKAN'
AT NIXON TONIGHT

Owing to the washouts on the South
ern Pacific "The Alaskan company
was unable to reach Winnemucca last
evening. No. 5, the train to which
their private car was attached, was
obliged to stop at Golconda, and al
though thc railroad company made
heroic efforts it was unable to get them
through. The troupe was brought as
far as the big washout, two or three
mills east of town, but was taken back
to Golconda.
This afternoon the company was
brought down to the washout, where
they were transferred to a boxcar and
brought in to the station.
Tonight "The Alaskan" may be seen
at the Nixon opera house in all its
glory, The advance sale has been the
largest of any attraction ever billed
for the town, and present indications
are that standing room will be at a
premium this evening

court TO CON-
YFNF MONDAY

The Silver State is in receipt of
authentic information from Reno to
the effect that Judge Pike will convene
court in Winnemucea next Monday, for
the purpose of calling the calendar.
Since the first of the year Humboldt
county has been without a grand jury,
and whether Judge Pike will summon
one next week or not is net known.
However, as the county commissioners
will be in session Monday, it is the
logical conclusion that a grand jury
will be drawn and summoned to meet
at later date.
The following Jail cases are await
ing action on the part of the grand
jury:
Phil Davis and jeremiah Mcclure,
charged with having robbed Southern
Pacific boxcars at Lovelock.
A. Sullivan, who admits that he en-
bezzled mileage books from the South
ern Pacific, while in the employ of the
company last summer in the capacity
of freight agent at the Winnemucca
station.
William Grogan, G. Suaso, F. H.
Davies, forgery.
Johnny Skedaddle (Indian) bound
over for housebreaking.
