Miss Helen X Kinnicutt. the nineteen
year old daughter Of the manager Of a
studio apartment house at Lexington
avenue and Sixty-sixth street. got this
message over the telephone yesterday
afternoon from man who said he was
"a friend:
"Don't leave the house to-day; IL you

mum of si7 East icOth street. the muzzle
Of a revolver crashed through window
five feet from her head and shot was
fired. The bullet went so close to the
girls head that she felt air stirring as IL
passed. It lodged in a piece Of fresco
work in a corner of the room
just across the street from the en-
trance to the apartment house. which
covers the whole block between East
Sixty al xth and East Sixty. seventh streets,
and confronts the armory Of the Seventh
Regiment. is the East Sixty seventh
street police station. Miss Kinnicutt
and Mr.. Barnum. both OF whom recovered
their nerve quickly after the shot was
fired. ran to the police station. MIR.
Kinnicutt who had been sitting in an
other room. followed them.
As they emer ged into the street they
discerned man 8 coattails disappearing
around the corner into Lexington avenue.
Policemen on reserve in the station
house poured out, but they could find
nobody who might have fired the bullet
When detectives came to examine the
Kinnicutt apartment they found powder
marks on the curtain OF the window
through which the revolver had been
poked They reasoned that the shooter
must have smashed the pane. pressed
| aside the curtain and aimed deliberately
Petween the sidewalk and the we'll OF
| the apartment house is an areaway twelve
feet deep. Along the sidewalk is an iron
fence about ten feet high. To reach the
Kinnicutt window the man with the gun
must have had to crawl behind a granite
pillar beside the entrance and along a
stone ledge ten inches wide.
The assalant must have balanced him
self on the ledge. clinging to the stone
work with one hand while he jabbed the
pistol through the window with the other
and pushed aside the curtain for the shot
Mr.. Kirnicutt told the police that two
years ago he discharged a porter and
that this porter had annoyed Miss Kinni-
cntt on the street several times since then.
Neither Mr. Kinnicutt nor his daughter
had any theory OF the shooting except
that the porter might have done it. The
police are looking for the porter.
The apartment house is the biggest
in that part Of town.

Comptroller Prendergast has received
from Police Commissioner Cropsey q
voucher for s7.i3o against the contingent
fund OF 1000 provided in the budget.
The voucher covers the expense accounts
which have been turned in by the police
men and detectives who have been em.
ployed in getting evidence against
gambling houses. poolrooms and dis
orderly houses. Mr.. Prendergast re-
turned the voucher to have Commissioner
Cropsey certify to its correctness. which
Mr.. Cropsey did not do. Some Of the
items are for drinks. cigars and bets lost.
The Comptroller wonders IL the sleuths
never bet on the right horse. According
to their itemized accounts the horses
they picked in betting in the poolrooms
always came in last or at least outside
the place money. The men were also
equally unfortunate in the gambling
rooms. No matter whether they played
craps. stuss. roulette or poker. the fortune
according to their expense accounts was
always against them and they lost all the
time the money given to them to play
the games for the purpose Of getting
evidence against the houses.
They didn't stint themselves on booze
There was one bill which Mr.. Prendergast
disclosed yesterday where a shoofiy cop
in one night spent $40 for drinks and
only 90 cents for his supper. Another
bill put in by a detective called for the
payment OF $50 O5 for drinks bought
between December and 20 and only q
for lodgings. One cop lost s222 In three
months in poolrooms and his expense
account stated that in that time he had

Gold ore as rich as ever came
from Florence and the Mohawk at
Goldfeld, or the Sunnyside at Round
Mountain, or from the camp of Ma
tional, has been opened up at depth
by the Toiyabe Mining company, 80
miles south. The strike was made
two weeks ago, but news of it has
suppressed until a Reveille CORE
spondent got on the trail, and here
relates the story that will turn many
eyes to the rich region up the
river toward Berlin.
For several months the Toiyabe
Mining company has been running
a tunnel into the hill on the north
slope of Crane creek, stream that
flows from the Toiyabe into Reese
river valley. This creek is direct
ly opposite Ophir canyon in which
in the past mines have been worked
of great richness, which yielded
enormous returns.
A main ore body was cut by this
tunnel $50 feet from the portal
and at $50 feet vertical depth.
This vein is from five to seven
feet in thickness.

rich GOLD ORE FOUND
BY TOYIABE MINING co.

eight inches of what in the boom
days of the southern camps would
be called "jewelry" by the fantastic
writer's of that time. 1t is ore
that the Reveille correspondent re-
ports as half quartz and half gold.
The remainder of the ledge car
ries shipping values in gold and
silver and lead A drift of thirty
feet has been run and for ten feet
the entire ledge will break to ship
ping rock. The management is al
ready preparing to make shipment,
which they are confident will bring
returns that will startle the mining
circles of this and adjoining states.
The Toiyabe Mining company is
being financed by San Francisco
capital, and is a close corporation.
r. H. Bawden, a mining and milling
man of wide experience, is the man
ager of the property. He has been
manager of properties in Mexico
and Korea for many years and the
company is fortunate in having Sc
cured his services. Great credit is
due Mr.. Bawden for the way he
/ has conducted the development of
this property. In statement to
the correspondent of the Reveille
he stated it was the richest gold
ore that he had seen in many years,
and he had no doubt but that this
district would prove one of the most
important in the state.
There has been a great amount
of prospecting going on in the Clear
| Creek district for the past four
years. Among the most important
properties are the King Midas Min
ing company. The Snow King group,
owned by Duncker and Ulhoff; the
Great Western, owned by G. n
Gooding and associates, the Big

that some women don't have any con-
Sideration for mans feelings, and
will not hesitate to get him up in the
middle of the night on the slightest
preteXt. no matter what the hour or
how tired he may be. The reason
for his opinion in that particular re-

had been sounded and he knew there
hadn't, but she thought she heard it,
