HOME OF GOV. SPARKS
PASSES TO new HANDS

The handsome home of the late
Governor Sparks has passed into
new hands. w. H. Moffat,..the cattle
man, has purchased the place for
his future home.
At the time of the death of
Governor Sparks il was believed
that he left a fortune. On the
contrary, he left lot of debts, The
home was mortgaged and every
thing eventually passed form the
hands of his widow to that of Mrs.
Thoma. Several attempts were
made to purchase the property and
make club house of the same.
1t is said that the consideration
was $4,000.
During the life of Governor
Sparks his home was an open
house. His generosity knew no
bounds and every friend was
welcome. 1t was modelled and
maintained on the plans of the
Southern plantation. There we're
few in the political or social
word who did not at some time
share the generosity Of the Cover
nor and partake of his board and
bowl.
At one time the master. of
Alamo owned the finest herd of
Hereford cattle in the world. He
went the limit in keeping the
strain at the top notch, and those
who were interested in fine breed
ing visited him and consulted.
His fine cattle like the rest of his
belongings, have scattered. Every
one will remember the elk paddock
that he maintained, while a number
of buffalo were to be seen grazing
on his pastures.
M Qua ever knew JJi1 Sparks
but regrets to lie arm of the lIassing
of his possessions to others than
his family. His hospitality left sn
indelible mark. Upon the recent
visit of ex-President Roosevelt to
this State, the first party he asked
to meet was the widow of Eover.
nor Sparks. His wish was gratified.
There is no man in the history
of Nevada who has left as kindly
feeling as did John Sparks. No
matter who owns the home and its
cultivated acres it will always be
known as the home of Governor

HELPING WIDOWS

Judge Porterfeld is the Juvenile

it was Con Kennedy, one of the
pioneers of the district. was
severely beaten and kicked while
Mike Forbeley. Kennedy's antagon.
list. received bullet wound in the
forehead.
According to reports brough in
from the camp. there has been ILL
feeling between Kennedy and Mike
and Frank Forbeley and Tom Ray,
for several months over the owner
ship of valuable mining ground at
Spring valley. Kennedy claims
that the three men unlawfully
located his ground and had forbid
him going to do his work. The
three men. it is alleged. had even
torn down the corner posst and
otherwise obliterated every mark
Of ownership made by Kennedy.
