r. f. Dudenthal of Chicago is given
credit by the police for the "hard luck''
story Of many day. He was passing
an alley in Indiana avenue, near his

choked him so hard that his gold teeth
fell out.
"Hey, Jack" said one robber who
caught the teeth, "this looks good.
Tighten up on him; he may give up
more"
They not only took Dudenthal's gold
teeth, but $50 and a meerschaum pipe.

JOE KELLY HEADS LIST OF EX'S

Never before In hascbalrs history has
the national pastme held such golden
opportunities for the profession as ar
present. This is simply because the
game has grown SO popular with the
country ut large that the major leagues
can no longer take care OF all the
stars. Two big minor leagucs--tile
Eastern and American Association
are now almost the equals of the
majors in playing strength. This has
been proved repeatedly in exhibition
games. Let one Of the big fellows
bobble and the humber minor Will
win invariably.
a glance at the reserve list Of the
Eastern League proves the point. It IS
still more than two months before
the baseball season Will be ushered In.
Yet already the eight Eastern League
clubs have procured thirty-two players
who last year entertained major league
fandon.

LEADING SOCIAL
Event OF SEASON

The ball given by the married men
of Winnemucea to the married ladies
in th eNixon opera house Wednesday
evening was one of the most genteel
affairs known to local society.
The arrangements had been so car
fully prepared that everything moved
off without a hitch. Excellent music
was furnished by Smith s orchestra
and dancing was INDUCED in until an
early hour Thanksgiving morning.
During the entire evening delicious
punch was served in the ballroom, and
at II O'Clock the banquet was announc-
ed as being ready to serve. Upon en-
tering the opera house, each person had
been given a number, and the floor di-
rector called for a sufficient number of
couples to fill the tables, with the re-
suit that the elegant supper was en-
joyed by all, with sufficient time to
discuss it's merits.
A noticeable feature of the occasion
was the many handsome costumes worn
by the matrons present.

LOVELOCK MAN DIES
FROM EFFECT OF OPERATION

Tuesday morning the sad news of the
death of S. d. Farrell in Reno hospi
tai was received and expressions of
sorrow and sympathy with the bereav-
ed wife and children were heard on
every hand. Mr.. Farrell had been
i'll only short time, having been oper-
ated upon for appendicitis week be-
fore his death. After the oeration the
reports from his bedside were to the
effect that he had withstood the opera
tion in good shape. This was follow
ed by report few days later that
he was not doing as well as he should
to regain his health. Another report,
however, last Sunday set anxious fears
at rest by news that he had rallied and
was on the road to recovery. Conse-
quently his friends were unprepared
for the news of his demise.
Mr.. Farrell, who was widely known
in this section as stSteve,' had lived
in Lovelock for about five years, hav-
ing come shortly following the first
strike in the Seven Troughs district.
For number of years he engaged in
auto driving for various persons and
was associated Wiz III. G. Bailey in an
auto transfer business. Later and up to
the time of his death he was in the
employ of l.. A. Friedman.
Deceased was born in Indiana, and
was 81 years of age. Prior to coming
to Lovelock he was in the auto busi-
ness in San Francisco. Surviving
him is a wife and two young children,
twin babies, and father.-Tribune.

MIA. bringing Martin Azparren, arrest
ed there by Sheriff Smith the first part
of the week, charged with the murder
of George Duffurena, near DEMO, on

returned voluntarily, without requisi-

While it is claimed that Azparren
admitted the killing to the Alturas
county authorities. since returning
here he has refused 70 talk about the
ease. This morning Sheriff Lamb Sc
cured the services of Ben Loinaz as in
terpreter, for the purpose of holding
conversation with the prisoner. To
the interpreter Azparren stated that
he was stranger TO him and he did
not wish to discuss the ease. He af-
forwards wired for Reno friend to

At 10 O'Clock yesterday morning

made a technical objection to the jury
panel, which was later overruled bv
Judge Ducker and the selection of a
jury was proceeded with, and at a
late hour this afternoon was not com.
pleted.
The alleged facts in this case are
still fresh in the minds of most of the
public. Defendant is charged with
having, on the night of September %
last, entered the Mommoth National
mine, in company with another person,
and stealing several sacks of high
grade ore. Most of this rock was re-
covered the next day, having been
cached but a short distance from the
point where the fleeing ROBBERS made
stand and fought a gun duel with
their pursuers.
Shortly after the robbery Porter
field was arrested at his cabin and
brought to Winnemucca, where he was
given a preliminary examination be-
fore Justice Dunn, which resulted in
his dismissal At its last sesino, how
ever, the grand jury found true bill
againt defendant, upon which he is
now being tried.

M'NAMARAS PLEAD
GUILTY TO Charge

At Los Angeles, yesterday after
noon, James B. Mcnamara pleaded
guilty to murder in the first degree in
connection with the death of Charles
J. Haggerty, a victim of the Los An
geles Times explosion and fire. His
brother, John j., jointly indicted with
him, pleaded guilty to dvnamiting the
Llewellyn Iron works. They will be
sentenced next Tuesday, December 5.
James B. McNamara probably will
get life imprisonment. John j. Nc
Namara, it was rumored, will get IA
years. Each pleaded guilty on the
charge of which he was extradited
from Indianapolis.
"The McMamaras have pleaded
guilty because they were guilty. was
District Attorney John d. Fredricks'
crisp comment.

life. The Times building was blown up
by James B. Mcnamara with nitro
glycerine to be sure, but the bomb
touched off the gas and gas really did
it,"
"Did you have to wrestle hard with
the McNamaras to get that admis-
sions' he was asked.
Somewhat, but the facts were
overwhelming. Every loop hole was
gathered in by the state. AS far as
am concerned I felt that sooner or lat
er it had to come. Things were hap
pening in which big people were inter
ested. The movement was impelling.
They wanted the matter cleared up
and feared further bloodshed unless we
obliterated the incident from Los An
geles at once. OF course, I feel that
have helped the McNamaras by getting
them to plead, insofar as they probably
will not be sentenced to death. Life
Imprisonment will be meted out to
James B. and John J. will get off with
light sentence.'
District Attorney Fredricks init
mated that he would recommend life
imprisonment for Jamse B. and that
John j. probably would have to serve
short term The matter was practi-
cally arranged early yesterday by
agreement between counsel.
