TRAINER TAKEN
TO RENO TODAY

This noon Sheriff Lamb took j. F.
TRAINER to Reno on late No. 5. The
prisoner was indicted with Nimrod
Uric at the last session of the grand
jury for the killing of Mr.. and Mrs.
Jean Quilici at Inlay on the night of
January 6 of this year.
Last month, after a considerable de-
lay in securing jury, Uric was found
guilty OF the murder of Mrs. Quilici
and was sentenced to death. He was
last week removed to the penitentiary
at Carson City to await the execution
of the judgment.
Immediately after Urie's conviction,
TRAINER case was called in the Dis
trict Court, but on motion of counsel
he was granted change of venue to
Washoe county, where his case will
probably be heard some time next
month. Although the entire expense
of the trial will be borne by Humboldt
county, it is considered that it will be
much cheaper to send the witnesses
there than to attempt to secure jury
in this county.

GENERAL INTER
PRETS SCHOOL TAX-LEVY LAW

There evidently being conflict be.
tween acts of the legislature in regard
to the school tax levy, in response to
an inquiry by State Superintendent
BRAY Attorney General Baker has
construed the law as follows:
Substitute for senate bill No. 1877
al owe quoted fixing the general
school fund at six cents) and which
lecame law March Is, 1911, fixed the
state tax levy at 60 cents on each 800
of taxable property in the state, and
distributed six cents on each 800 of
the taxable property in the state, un.
der this levy, into the general school
fund.
'Taking into consideration the fact
that hy the provisions of the act con
cerning public schools, the rate of
taxation to be paid into the school
fund from state tax was fixed at ten
cents on each hundred dollars of tax
able property, which act was approved
and became law when the act desig-
mated substitute for senate bill No.
1877 was the existing law, it had the
effect of repeating so much of bill No.
1877, as fixed the rate of state tax to
be paid into said school fund, thereby
fixing the rate of state tax to be paid
into said fund at ten cents on each
hundred dollars of taxable property in
the state.'

SIX MONTHS TO VISIT
EVERY CAPITAL. IN UNION

March 25th he left Council Bluffs to
beat his way on visit to every capi-
tai in the country and must do it with.
in six months. He is a member of the
Eagle lodge and started on the trip
owing to an argument that took place
between two Eagles. One claimed that
the swiftest men in the country were
Eagles and as a result wager of a
thousand dollars was made that a
'oung Eagle of the Council Bluffs
Ndge could make the trip mentioned.
ne young man is well on his way and
$ ahead of his schedule. BY breaking
the time limit he wins h/ndred dol
lars and is trying to make the trip as
rapidly as possible. He is selling postal

TO SELL COUNTY
HIGH SCHOOL BONDS

The preliminaries are being arranged
for the erection of county high
school in Winnemucca. The last ses-
sion 90 the legislature authorized q
bond issue for the purpose amounting
to $4,000, bearing six per cent inter
est and of $500 denominations. The
site for the building was left to the Sc
lection of the county board of educa-
ton.
At the meeting of the board Of
county commissioners yesterday, Clerk
Davey was authorized to prepare an
advertisement, to be published in the
Silver State, inviting bids for the
bond issue, to be submitted up to l
'clock of the afternoon of Monday,
July 3. AS guaranty of good faith
on the part of bidders, each proposal
must be accompanied by certified
check of at least two per cent of the
amount of the bid.
Site Not Yet Selected.
To a Silver State representative,
this morning, w. A. Brown, chairman
of the county board of education,
stated that while there had been an
informal discussion of the site by the
members of the board, the subject had
not yet been seriously considered. The
law sets no limits as to the time in
which the selection shall be made and
the location will depend largely on
prices asked by property owners for
their lots.

1.-THE CLIMAX PROVES
TO BE WHOLESOME PLAY

The Climax at the opera house
Tuesday evening, was revelation to
the satiated theatregoer who has hith
erto demanded something spicy with
the attendant villanies and exciting
situations. There is little or not plot
and the story is sweetly simple and the
naturalness is fascinating, leaving
no dark taste the morning after. Our
esteemed contemporaries have already
covered the ground so cleverly that it
would be a useless task to attempt to
"gild refined gold or paint the lily"
The story is already familiar to all and
space forbids repetition of it and
it is sincerely regretted that there was
not s. r. 0. sign out, as it was the
best play in our city for many days.

MORE DEvILTRIES LAID
TO INDIAN MIKES GANG

Today's Reno journal contains the
following account of dead horses that
have been found on the trail of Indian
Mike, who was killed last month in a
battle with officials in Humboldt
county:
Did Indian Mike and his renegade
family annex the sealps of four addi
tional victims, after having murdered
the four stockmen and a Chinaman in
Little High Rock canyon last Januaryi
According to the story of Frank
o 'Brien, who arrived yesterday from
the Pyramid lake district there is ev-
cry reason to believe that additional
murders were committed by the band
of Indians. O'Brien bases his belief
on the finding of the remains of four
horses, that had been killed and buried
The careasses were in separate places,
but all were along the route taken by
Indian Mike and his followers, after
having committed the murders in Lit.
tie High Rock canyon.
my attention was called to the
buried horses by sheepherders, said
Mr.. o 'Brien. "lt was only by acci-
dent that the remains of the animals
were discovered, for grea, care had
been taken to hied the graves. One of
the horses was found four miles north
of the twenty house, near the
Pyramid reservation. The second ami
NAL was discovered two miles north of
the horse camp, situated seven miles
north of the reservation. The other two
bodies were located at point about
two miles north of the spot where the
second discovery was made.
''The find was made few weeks
ago, but | did not have the necessary
time to thoroughly explore the vicini-
ties of the graves, as ! was busy with
the sheep. However, we exhumed the
remains of the animals, and on each
the brand had been cut and the ears
clipped. This appeared to me to be an
Indian trick, for il was apparent that
the parties who killed the animals did
not want them to be identified by
either the ear marks or brands. From
wnat | could determine, it is my be-
lief that the animals ranged from two
to four wears in age.
"A search for saddles, brides or
! lankets revealed nothing. We made
a hurried search of the vicinity of
each grave for it was our belief that
the Indians had murdered the owners
of the horses and likewise buried their
b, dies, but were unable to find any
taees of crime having been COM
! itted. The lack of time on our part
forced us to abandon the hunt

FAVOR REBELLION

terest in the anti-Mancu movement in
China, which has eliminated in a we'll
defined rebellion. The rebel forces
are under direction of the Young Chi
ma association, with which nearly all
Cinnamon in this country are affiliat-
ed. To a Silver State representative
this morning local Chinese business
man made the following statement:
"In common with practically all
Cinnamon in the United States, we in
Winnemucca wish to see our native

try may rank with other nations. For
this purpose the Young China associa-
tion is financing the present rebellion,
with every prospect of success.
'China is country of wonderful
natural resources, the development of
which would furnish profitable employ
ment to the vast populace. A school
system similar to that prevailing in
this country should be established, in
order that the young may be educated
and fitted for business. Under the
present corrupt dynasty these reforms
are impossible, and can only be in
augurated by the overthrow of the
government.
''Shean Man, of Canton, an ennis
sary of the Young China association, is
at present in New York and will visit
every European country before his re-
turn to China. While his mission is
of diplomatic nature, he will also
endeavor to enlighten the peoples of
of the present rebellion, in the hope
that we may secure their moral sup
