SLIGHT Hitch
IN POWER line
PROCEEDINGS
UNCLE sAMUEEs PERMISSION
TO LAY WATER PIPE
HARD TO SECURE.

1t was rumored here during the
week that another hitch has oc-
Cured in power line matters, which
may delay the turning on of the
current for a short time. The
trouble seems to be in the failure
of the power company's officials to
satisfy the forestry officials in the
matter of crossing a small corner
of a forest reserve with the NAM
moth conduit for furnishing water
to the generating plant. 1t was
thought that this matter had been
settled some time ago, but it seems
there are a few more spools of red
tape to be unwound before the in
cident can be closed. In the mean
time the power company is going
right ahead with preparations to
turn on power at this end of the
line. The eXcavating for the found
alton of the sub-station has been
completed and as soon as the mate
rails for the building arrive, it
can be put up without delay.
1t is also said that the line to
the Nevada Hills at Fairview, which
was not put up at the time the
main line was built. is to be erected

SHERIFF. LAMB HAS
BEEN UNFAIRLY TREATED

Sheriff Lamb returned with the
posse TO Golconda from the battle
field, he having reached the Kelley
creek ranch Monday about noon. To
him is due much of the credit for
the victorious result of the chase
after the Indians, he having given
the posse the information which re-
suited in the trail being picked up
Sunday morning. That Sheriff Lamb
was not in at the finish was due to
a misleading telephone message sent
to him that the trail was not the
right one, when it was known by
the entire posse that the facts were
exactly contrary, Had Sheriff Lamb
been treated decently he would have
Joined the posse at Willow Point
Saturday night and would have been
with them next day In fairness to
the posse in general it should be
stated that the misleading message
sent to Sheriff Lamb by one of the
members of the state police This
unfairness toward Sheriff Lamb is
censured most strongly by Sheriff
Smith and the Eagleville boys, who
were extremely anxious to have
Humboldt countys intrepid and
fearless sheriff with them at the
finish Winnemueea Star.

COPPERNOLL CAN SEE NO
GODD IN A DEMOCRAT

Coppernoll might do considerable
talking on the floor of the assem-
bly,, but no one as yet has dared
to mention that he is anything but
consistent republican. Recently,
in speaking of A. B. 1906, introduced
by Denton, he said that he thought
it a good measure and intended to
vote for it. He believed it to be
an administration measure, but he
thought that it was placed in
damn poor hands when it was placed
in the hands of democrat.

COLIMA ERUPTION.
Mexican Volcano Said to Have
Rivalled Vesuvian Tragedy.

Mexican Volcano Said to Have
RivaIIed Vesuvian Tragedy.
Details of the eruption of Mount
Colima, received at Mexico City over
wires that frequently failed, give the
story sent by agents of the Red Gross,
showing that on the western coast of
Mexico has been enacted a tragedy
of a nature second only to that Of
Vesuvius.
No warning was given the natives
at the base of the mountain when the
eruption began. The volcano first
poured out binding, suffocating
cloud of ashes upon the villages nest
ling in the fertile valley. The dust
was followed by an overwhelming
food of molten lava that completed
the work of destruction, and of the
hundreds in the villages but few
escaped to tell the story.
The natural agents of devastation
are even continuing their work. Land,
slides cut off all railroad traffic be.
tween Mexico City and Colima and
Manzanillo. This will hamper the
work of relief, but the Red Cross is
active wherever it has been able to
penetrate.
Its agents reported that more than
400 were killed in zapotlan Many are
dying in the hospital. OF the dead
thirty-six bodies have been recovered
and buried. Only those on the sur.
face are cared for. The ruins of their
former homes will probably be the
only tombs they will receive.

Death Penalty.

Death Penalty.
John Withrow. who last July killed
Callie Withrow, his wife, was hanged
at Blue Ridge, Ca, Friday. He con-
fessed to Sheriff jenkins son that he
murdered his wife, and had young
Jenkins write the history of his life,
which will be given out for publica-
ton in a day or two. There were
1000 out-of-town people to witness
the execution.
The crime of which Withrow was
convicted was the most shocking that
has ever occurred in Fannin county
Withrow became intoxicated while
away from home one day last year
and, on returning home, offered
violence to his wife. She became
frightened and attempted to escape by
way of a trail through the corn field
taking with her one of her small chill
dren. WithrOw followed her out of
the house and, kneeling down, DELHI
erately aimed and fired at her, killing
her instantly Withrow was % years

children. He was one Of the five men

MEXICO SHAKEN BY
GREAT EARTHQUAKE
Believed That 5000 People
Have Pel1shtd.
40 CITIES ARE DAMAGED
Conservative Estimates Report the
Known Death List at 1900, and 1t Is
Believed That This Will Be More
Than Doubled Later.

A dispatch from Mexico City says:
Only with the partial restoration of
Geographic communication through
out the republic has the real extent of
the devastation brought by the earth
quake been revealed. The most con-
sentative estimate prepared by the
government shows that fully 1880
have been killed, and when the mac
cessible sections are heard from it is
feared that the death list will go
above 5000.
The ruin started in many cities by
the earthquake of Wednesday morn
ing was completed by second earth
quake. 1t was most severe in the
southern and western sections of the
country, but was distinctly felt at
Mexico City. The fact that the local
seismographs had been broken by the
shock of Wednesday prevented any
accurate record being taken.
The second quake was felt first at 5
p. m, and was of five minutes dura-
ton. Though no damage was done at
Mexico City, the panic of the lower
classes, which had not entirely sub
sided after the first disaster, was re-
doubled, and the churches were
thronged all night with prayerful pen
itents.
The second quake was accompanied
along the Pacific coast with a tidal
wave, according to the meager advices
thus far received, and terrific damage
is believed to have been done in the
coast cities.
Communication with Acapulco was
cut off, causing a report that the port
had been destroyed.
Mount Colima, the only active vol
cano on the North American CONT
nent, is still pouring forth vast
streams of lava over the surrounding
country, which it has turned into a
desolate waste by the most active
eruption of many years.
Forty Cities Damaged.
In the country around Colima heavy
damage was done to forty cities, all
with a population of more than 1,50C
souls. Seven of these are reported to
have been completely destroyed.
That fully $4,000 are homeless is the
belief of government officials, and
everything possible will be done tc
render aid to the refugees.

that Tehauntepec and Coatzacoalcos
were destroyed, but heavy damage is

testimony that large slush fund had
been put up for Evans defense, but
they refused to make defense on
perjured testimony.
Evans was under three indictments
in all. The one to which he pleaded
guilty was for soliciting from L. F.
