Judge Ducker Grants Motion Of Dc
fendant's Attorney and Orders
Tral to Be Held in Washoe.

J. f. TRAINER, who was jointly in
dicted with Nimrod Uric for the muir
der of Mr.. and Mrs. Eugene Quilici
was this afternoon, upon the applica-
tion of his attorney, Judge j. J.
Shields, granted change of venue.
BY order of the court the trial will be
transferred to Washoe county, and the
prisoner was ordered to be turned over
to the sheriff of that county.
In granting the motion Judge Duck
er said that there was no use of the
district attorney opposing the motion,
as he had made up his mind to grant
it, being fully convinced that it was al
most impossible to secure in this coun-
ty jury that would give the defend
ant a fair and impartial trial, owing
to the wide notoriety given the case
and the popular feeling against the
defendant because of the atrociousness
of the crime. He believed that if the
motion were denied by him, that of
itself would be sufficient for the Su-
preme Court to reverse a verdict of
guilty should TRAINER be convicted.
1t is expected that TRAINER will be
delivered to the Washoe county off
cials in the morning.

Arbor day was observed at the
schools yesterday by holding suitable
exercises and the usual tree-planting
The scholars of the fifth, sixth, seventh
and eighth grammar grades and the
high school were assembled at 1890
a. m. in Miss Genevive Lyng's class
room. There they listend to addresses
by Professor j. F.. Abel, who talked
very interestingly on the origin and
preservation Of Arbor day, and by
Principal J. F. Graham. The latter
took as his subject the work Of the
forestry bureau and the recently estab-
lished forest reserve in the northern
part of this county.
At the conclusion of the addresses
all gathered in the yard, where grass
seed was sown for the much desired
lawn, and plants, bushes and young
trees were planted. To each class q
special piece of ground has ben allot-
ted and it is expected that there will
be considerable rivalry between the
classes in the care and cultivation Of
their respective lots.
At 1890 the schools were dismissed
for the afternoon.

Will ORGANIZE
BASEBALL CLUB

The agitation of the local baseball
fans for the organigzation of q ball
team to represent Winnemucca, is at
last bearing fruit. During the past
few days number of likely players
have been approached and enough have
signified their willingness to play, so
that there is every reason to believe
that a team can be selected which
may be expected to hold it's own
against the representatives Of our
neighboring burgs.
Progress has so far been made that
it has practically been dcided that
Chester Smith shall manage the team.
He has called the first practice game
for tomorrow morning at 1880 clock
and the prospective members Of the
team will meet him at the Gem and
from there go to the ball grounds at
the corral.
1t is expected that the following
will be on hand for tomorrow prac-
tice: Judge Dunn, Jim Williams, Geo.

CONCfNTRATOR FOR
NEVADA SUPERIOR

j. T.. Stafford, the local mining man,
recently visited the property of the
Nevada superior company in this
county, for the purpose of examining
til. ,"w. grade ore bodies and measur-
ing the water flow, with view to de-
termining the best method of treat
ment of this particular grade of ore.
He has forwarded his report to General
Manager John w. Geiger, in Salt Lake
City, and the Herald Republican prints
a summary of the report from which
we take the following extracts:
The flow of water at the mouth of
the main tunnel on March IA was IA,
0e9 gallons in "a hous. Some water
is lost in seepage, before reaching the
tunnel portal.
The ore bodies occur in chutes in a
well-defned fissure vein, which in my
opinion shows better and stronger on
the lower levels. Samples from all the
important chutes of low grade were
taken. The assay from the crude ore
gave the following values: Gold, 80
cents; silver, 1886 ounces; lead 81
per cent; copper, 8 per cent.
/ would advise the construction of
the concentration just below the shaft.
the mill bins from the hoist. You
could also raise the concentrates with
the same hoist and save the uphill
wagon pull.
BY driving the tunnel 1000 feet fur
ther on the vein you would drain the
upper workings and develop sufficient
water for 50ton plant, at the same
time opening up new ore chutes, rich
er and larger than you have hereto
fore encountered. Shipping ore of an
excellent quality is showing in Wine
sunk in the upper tunnel. The tun-
mel driven ahead as mentioned would
attain a depth of $50 fet, affording an
immense stopping territory.
With the erection of 10000 gallon
tank, 25.ton concentration could be
run from the start and made to pay.
! would suggest gasoline for fuel, as
it is cheaper than coal or wood.

The lngenue role Of Kathleen Luarie
in Silver Threads" the new play In
which Richard j. Jose will be seen AZ

different from the general run of in

character the part calls for, it takes
an actress of great dramatic strength
to play the scene in the third act which
is one of the biggest scenes ever writ
ten for three people. Sarah Lewis, who
plays Kathleen, succeeds in accomplish
ing the feat that would be an impossi-
bility in the hands of q less experience
