MAY Be A SPECIAL SESSION

Already talk has commenced
that speial session of the legis-
lature will have to be called after
the close Of the prese mt session to
complete the vast amount of work
that will come before the session.
The civil practice act alone will
take up the time of the legislature
for nearly two weeks and the other
acts and bills of the Code Com
mission will more than take up the
remainder of the time of the
session.
This means that the work now
on hand and the measures that will
be introduced during the next two
weeks will have to be given due
consideration and a special session
therefore becomes a necessity

BUCK MAKES IT WARM
FOR TOM PEPP Err

Thomas PEPPER, a representative
of the SoutheD Pacific Land COM
pany at Nina, and j. Holman Buck
are having some trouble. Some
time ago a number of cottages
were erected on land that was
afterw ard decided by the court to
be Southe I'm Pacific property. The
railroad company decreed that
rental of $35 per year should be
forthcoming for the use of the
land and when Pepper went to
collect from Buck the latter
threatened to shoot him or another
Southern Pacific representative
who put foot on the place. Pepper
came to Goldfield to secure official
protection from Buck. Sheriff
Ingalls, went to Nina to look into
the affair, but Buck told the sheriff
he had no designs on the life of
Pepper. And there the matter
rests. District Attorney Walsh
has refrained from putting Buck
under bonds to keep the peace
until he considers the matter
further.
Buck is considered bad man
with a gun. 1t war only a few
years ago that he killed man over
aIand dispute at Nina, but was
cleared or the ground ofl.self

IN GARRET

and gave no thought to the documents,
merely keeping them as mementoes.
For many years after Jansons death
his family lived in this city and the
securities rested in a trunk. When
Mrs. Janson moved to Mill Valley, a
decade ago. in order to be close to
one of her married daughters, she took
the trunk with her and it has occupied
place in the garnet of her home ever
since.
Recently she chanced to mention
the old papers while talking with a
friend. Curiosity caused the friend
to ask the privilege Of examining the
bonds. From their dusty hiding
place they were brought forth, and
the friend began an investigation, with
the result that he discovered they
were evidences Of just Indebtedness
owing by the Mexican government to
Charles Janson.
After family conference 1t was de-
cided that Craelius should take the
matter in hand. He consulted with
Attorney Rufus c. Thayer of San
Francisco and the opening of the old
Will case is the result.
Janson had seen much service in
the employ of the Mexican govern
government about As years ago. But
it was not until 1868 that the first of
the bonds were executed in his favor.

wealth belonged, in order that the
first steps may be taken to collect the
money and distribute it according to
lay, between the aged widow and her
five daughters.

At that time she discovered among

that they were worthless. Believing
this to be true, she cast them aside
