LOCAL MAN IS
MARKED BY
BLACK HAND
OFFICERS ARE PUTTING SEW
ERAL SUSPECTS THROUGH
SWEAT" PROCESS.

A babys coffin decorated with
four candles and upon which was
placed note with the skull and
cross-bones and threatening a ter
rible death, awaited the return of
Harry Brant, a local waiter, when
he returned to his room in a prom
inent lodging house, night before
last.
Mr.. Brant has a reputation for
being a brave man, but this was
too much for the nerve of even
a man made of iron, and when he
saw the ghastly sight he bolted and
nothing can induce him to return.
News of the outrage was quickly
circulated through the house and
the guests, in order to protect the
orderly reputation of the place,
kept quiet and moved the undesir-
able object to the house adjoining.
The next morning James Degan,
innocent of any participation, STUN
bled across the coffin in the hail,
and with the instinct of an old
time officer, at once sented a foul
murder and telephoned for the po-
lice The patrol wagon was quick
ly backed up to the rear entrance
of the house and the casket taken
to the police station.
The police have been working on
the case for the last two days and
are of the belief that Mr.. Brant has
been marked by the Black Hand.
Important arrests are expected soon,
as several suspects have been un-
dergoing the ''sweat" process, and
it is thought that some will break
down and 'fess" up.

NOW SINKING
MANY WELLS IN
MASON VALLEY
SEVERAL FLOWING WELLS ARE
OPENED UP AND ARE USED
FOR IRRIGATING.

George w. Clark has been busy
for some time past with his Key
stone drill sinking wells on ranches
in the south end of the valley. T.
j. Bradshaw has a well. on his
ranch $50 feet deep, from which
he pumps water for domestic use
and stock with a small gasoline
engine, The well is six inches in
diameter and the water cannot be
exhausted by the engine
|. A. Strosnider has a we'll down
on his ranch to a depth of 101 feet
and there is 75 feet of water in
it. He is also going to put i'll a
small engine and pump to obtain
water for domestic use and stock.
Ezra Cross has well about 40
feet deep on his ranch and a good
supply of water, and John MCGOWAN
has a well on his ranch about the
same depth. Mr.. Clark is now
drilling a well at the Barret school
house. All these wells are six-inch
but larger Cnes can be bored by
the machine if required. 1t costs
from $3.50 to 81 per foot to sink
these wells, according to the kind
of casing used.-Yerington Times.

LARGE CROWD IS
EXPECTED At The
GAME ON SUNDAY
PROSPECTS FOR \ GAME WITH
GOLDFIELD SOME TIME
THIS MONTH.

Although Sunday is several days
off, the principal topic of conversa-
tion upon the streets is which team
will win the ball game Sunday
Captain Mcdonald of the Single
Mems team says his men are cap
able of keeping the married men
from making first base and that
they will not make as much as
one tally.
Captain Peck, of the Married
Mems team says nothing doing"
and we conclude that the only way
we will know which side can play
the best ball is to be on deck
Sunday afternoon and witness the
game.
Prout, the pitcher for the single
men, needs no Introduction to the
people of Tonopah and he showed
in last Sundays game that he is
in form to pitch better ball this
season than ever before Spencer,
the pitcher for the married men,
is new to us. He has a splendid
record, however, and will no doubt
let loose for the glory of the
married men in Sundays game.
Manager Dugan is busy arrang-
ing a game with Goldfeld to be
played in Tonopah in the near flu
ture, and from the number of ball
players in Tonopah this year it
looks like Tonopah will be in line
for the championship of the state.

the Canadian Maru yesterday that
when the annual festival of the
shrine on the summit of Asama
volcano was held May 8 and sew
eral hundred pilgrims who had as
cended to the shrine were return

was serious loss of life.
A tremendous report, felt as far
distant as Toxic, was followed by
column of lava and smoke ris-
ing several thousand feet and the
pilgrims were showered with the
molten lava.
Some of the corpses were found
at the summit after the eruption
shriveled up by the red hot lava
The number of dead could not be
learned up to the time the ste
er sailed, but searching parties
found many bodies with the cloth
ing, hair and portions of limbs
burned away.
Several survivors who were found
near the foot of the volcano had
thrilling tales to tell of their suffer-
ings. Police from the Komoro vii

RUSHING WORK
ON new RAILROAD
FORCE IS INCREASED ON THE
NORTHERN EXTENSION OF
NARROW GUAGE.

Developments this week in CON
nection with the extension of the
N.-C.-O, railroad to Lakeview indi-
cate that Manager Dunaway is go
ing to make good in hurrying the
work as rapidly as possible. Three
new engineers reached the Davis
Creek headquarters last Friday anG
were placed in the field Immediate
ly. NJ. D. Williams is now at work
with his crew in cross sectioning,
while four additional draughtsmen
went to work Tuesday.
Tom Sargres now has a crew of
100 men at work on the side of
Sugar hill, Frank Fisher having
held up the right-of-way through
his place adjoining the hill on the
south. This trouble will probably
be amicably adjusted this week. if
it has not already been, and Mr..
Sargres will then increase his force
and rush the work as rapidly as
possible.
1t IS understood that the right
of-way across the entire Davis Creek
valley has been secured. The route
chosen is known as the upper line,
it passing just east of the Davis
Creek Orchard company's reservoir
and running half mile west of the
present townsite of Davis Creek,
at which point the station is to be
located, The survey runs a quar-
ter of mile west of the Davis
Creek hotel and nearly the same
distance west from the John Briles
residence. 1t passes through the
west end of Harry Bailey's ranch
and also crosses the Guerrin ranch
and corporation lands, as well as
several others.
The contractors are beginning to
receive their equipment and as soon
as the road is completed to the Page
place there will be lively times in
that portion of Goose Lake valley.
The bridges on the new extension
are being put in and as soon as
they are completed it will take but
few days to complete the track
laying.-Lake County Examiner.

SECOND DIVIDEND
SAS Been DECLARED
BY ELY PROPERTY

The regular quarterly dividend of
the Nevada Consolidated was post
ed last Saturday, the fortunate
stockholders receiving $749,3S0.
Since the Ely producer entered up
on its career of production two
years ago, it has distributed $5,-
OS1,371 in profits, with the pay
ment of the second dividend for
1911. The dividend is to be paid
on June 80.
AS Utah Copper holds more than
SO per cent of Nevada Consolidated
stock, more than $35O,0O0 will go
into the treasury of that company,
or the rate of little better than
100000 a month will go into the
strong box from it's interest in the
local copper property.
n The Nevada Consolidated is the
lowest among the red metal pro-
ducers in this country, and since
it has come a powerful factor in
the copper mining world, it is cred
tied with having a large part in the
new billion-dollar merger.
Of recent date it is claimed that
there is an increased demand for
copper metal. AS evidence of this
It is shown that for the past month
the exports amounted to 22,S21
tons which is an increase of 1855
tons over the record for the previ-
