CONFESSES HAVING TRIED +
DYNAMITE RESIDENCE

According to press dispatches, Ca
mile Valentine, an Austrian, has con-
fessed to placing dynamite Sunday
morning in a stove in the residence of
Jake Reudy, in Nina. He said that
he did it as a joke.
The explosion almost totally de-
stroyed the building, although it did
not result in any loss of life.
Valentine was bound over to await
the action of the grand jury His
bonds were fixed at $4,000, which were
not furnished and he was remanded
to Jail.
The defendant was arrested by Con-
stable Christensen and Deputy Sheriff
Ford. He was found at the Douglas
mine, three miles from Nina.
The cause for the outrage has not
yet been made public, either through
the confession by Valentine or any al
legation by the complaining witness.

CASEY WILL BE
HUNG TOMORROW

Patrick Casey, who will be hanged
tomorrow morning, is in the death
cell in the state prison and is closely
watched by prison guards designated
as the "death watch.' He has become
confirmed in the Episcopal faith and
now spends his time reading the bible
and praying, but it is feared that he
will break down on the day of the ex-
ecution and for this reason he will
probably be strapped to board so
that he cannot collapse when taken to
the gallows.
Warden Baker has only issued the
required number of invitations to the
execution. Thev are as follows:
"Nevada State Prison. Admit Mr.
-, to witness the execution of
Patrick c. Casey at the Nevada State
Prison, August 16, 1911, at IL o'clock
a. m. Not transferable. r. T. Baker,

LARGE WHEAT YIELD IN
THE INLAND EMPIRE

Charles w. Mohr, of Spokane, presi
dent of the Inland Empire Tresher-
men s association says in a report to
the Spokane chamber of commerce
that the grain yield in eastern Wash
ington and Oregon, north and central
Idaho and western Montana is larger
and of better quality than any crop
ever harvested in the district. Winter
wheat is running as high as so bush
els, spring wheat 80 bushels and bar
ley 60 to rs bushels to the acre. Some
of the wheat weighs GA pounds bush
ell Mr.. Mohr received the foregoing
information in reports from thresher-
men in the field. The reports are con-
firmed by advices from many districts
to bankers, millers and grain handlers
in Spokane, who say that the wheat
crop in eastern Washington will be the
largest in the history of the state.
Orris, Dorman. of Spokane, one of the
bonanza ranchers in the district, re-
ports there is sufficient help to handle
the crop, the wages ranging from $3.50
to $3.50 day, according to the work.
The hay crop also will eclipse all rec
ords in that part of the country.
