of $500 each. the bonds being furnished
by J. ID Truett and L. l.. Bradley.
For several years past the cattlemen
of Elko County have lost hundreds of
head of stock each year. The loss be-
came so great that the cattlemen form
ed an association and raised a fund to
stay this depreciation, and secured sew
eral convictions. This year the loss,
especially in calves. has been greater
By our local officers with the State
Police, with the result that Captain
Donnelly sent four Of his best men up
in the northern part of the county to
watch and gather evidence.
Two of these officers went boldly into
the town of Jarbidge and surrounding
country. making no secret Of their mis-
sion, and the attention of the cattle
r~ustlers were conferred on their every
movement. Meanwhile the two other
officers watched the hills and valleys
and have gathered Evidence sufficient

killing cattle in that section. We un.
derstsnd this case is but the %forerunner
Of many hat will be brought to the at
tention of the coming grand jury.
About the middle of September these
policemen claimed they caught these
two men in the act of killing a calf, and
it is on this evidence hat the arrests
were made.
Mr.. Truett owns a ranch in Stormy
canyon. near the head Of Mary's river,
and has lived in that section of the
county all his life. Mr.. Leroy is also
well known throughout the county, and
both deny that they are guilty of the
crime.
The cattle association declare they
are going to stop the stealing that has
been going on for years and will spare
no expense to convict the guilty parties.
The calf that was killed belonged to the
Nevada Land g. Livestock Company of

Tonight promises to be one of the
greatest evenings in the history of

football squad will occupy box seats
and the football warriors will forget
the stress of tomorrow's game in the
enjoyment of the splendid vaudeville
bill that is offered princeton

of the record crowds of the season.
and the house will be appropriately
decorated for the occasion.
Another especial attraction will be
the feat to be performed by Harden
the Handcuff King, in answer to the
challenge of the local U. S. army re-
cruiting agency, to free himself from
a crazy crib" the heavy iron cage
used to confine the dangerously in
sane. The local recruiting officers
put Harden into a straight jacket"
Tuesday night, from which he sec
ceeded in releasing himself. Not
satisfied with this test, the army men
want Harden to get out of the
'crazy crib Hardeens manager,
George Vickering, has accepted the
challenge. A feature of the affair is
the fact that the trick is to be per-
formed in the open, no cabinet or
shields to be used and Harden, if
he succeeds in releasing himself at ALL
must do so in full sight of the audi
ence.
The "crazy crib requires that Har-
deem must lay fat on his back and be
bound from head to foot to an iron
crib which extends the full length of
his body and shackles him to the last
degree. Harden considers this the
most difficult feat he has ever at
tempted and regards it as an even
bet whether or not he will succeed
At any rate the struggle will be an
interesting one. The recruiting Off
GERS have agreed to furnish the crib,
which will be borrowed from an in
sane asylum.
Already an unusually large advance
sale of seats attests to the interest
which is being taken in "Old Timers
Week" when the vaudeville stars of
former years will entertain Bridge
port audiences. Aside from the SEN
timent and interest associated with
the bill it would be a winner on sheer
merit. 1t is probably the greatest
collection of favorites ever gotten to-
gether in vaudeville and the old time
stars are Shre of a heart-warming re-
ception, from old friends and new.

JUDGMENT FOR MRS. sCHICK.

John Zanwald, judgment has just
to recover the sum of $3O.15. The
subject matter of the claim was for
board. 1t is stipulated in the judg-
ment that the defendant will not have
to pay any costs, as it was proved in
the trial that no demand within thir.
ty days had been made on him to pay
the claim, as provided by statute to
recover costs.
The case was closely contested. At
torney George Kane appeared for the
plaintiff, and Attorney William Zepp
acted for the defendant. The case was
tried before Justice Henry c. Bur-
roughs. The judgment is an equal
victory to each party, as the main
question resolved itself into the mat
ter of who should pay the costs.
