TERRIBLE WARMING TO MEN
WHO BORROW NEWSPAPERS

A man who was too economical to
purchase or subscribe for paper sent
his little boy to borrow the copy tax
en- by neighbor. In his haste the
boy ran over a 81 stand of bees and in
ten minutes later looked like warty
summer squash His father, who ran
to his assistance, and, failing to notice
"A barbed wire fence, ran into that,
eutting handful of flesh from his
anatomy and ruined 81 pair of pants.
The old COW took advantage of the
gap in the fence and got into the corn
field and killed herself eating green
corn. Hearing racket, the wife ran
out, upset four-gallon churn full of
rich cream into a basket of kittens,
drowning the entire litter. In her
haste she dropped a $25 set of false
teeth. The baby, having been left
alone, crawled through the spilled milk
and into the parlor, running brand
new $50 carpet. During the excite
ment the oldest daughter ran away
with the hired man, the dog broke up
eleven setting hens and the calves got
out and chewed the tails off four fine
shirts.-Birnie (Mo.) Star.

FAST RUN MADE
by s. P. NO. }

John A. Gill, travelling agent of the
Southern Pacific, arrived in Winnie
mucca last night on train No. g. Mr..
Gill was very enthusiastic when seen
by Silver State reporter at the Hotel
Lafayette today. He said No. left
Ogden four hours late, owing to snow
bound connections east, and that the
Southern Pacific company made up two
hours between Ogden and Winnemuc-
ca. In fact, the run from Golconda to
Winnemucca, IL cars in the train, was
made in seventeen minutes, distance II
miles.
There was quite large crowd of
eastern people occupying Pullmans,
some of them from the far east, and
were relating their many hardships in
reaching Ogden, and said they were
glad to be on real railroad, besides,
the climate of Nevada was so ideal
with sunshine that a great. many had
their windows opened in the Pullmans
in order to get all the benefit possible.
There were a few Californians on
board, among them Professor Perry,
who was formerly connected with the
University of California, Berkeley, and
was just returning after IL years alb
sence, most of the time in Europe. His
comments on the service, including the
dining car, were very flattering to the
is. p. department. When the train
reached Carlin they attached the pri-
vate ears of J. M. Davis, general su-
perintendent, and T. F. Rowlands, su-
perintendent of the Salt Lake division.
The additional equipment did not in
terfere with the speed of the train.
which will likely reach San Francisco
on time, or making good the four hours
lost by the connections east of Odgen.

TRAINER Will BE
TRIED FEBRUARY I3

AT Reno, yesterday afternoon, Judge
Ducker overruled the objections of
TRAINER Is attorneys to placing their
client on trial for the murder of Mrs.
Quilici, and set Februarv 13 as the
date.
| Counsel for defendant state that
they will sue out writ of prohibition
or of habeas corpus in the Supreme
Court.
The objections raised by the defend
ants attorneys in the hearing held be-
fore Judge Ducker were as follows:
First, that the defendant, j. Frank
TRAINER, was convicted Of the murder
of Jean Quilici and sentenced to serve
life term in the Nevada penitentary
ard that the state authorities waived
the right to take him away from pris-
on and try him again by allowing him
to be sentenced and incarcerated in,
the states prison. They declare that
the law gives the state an opportunity
to delay the imposing of sentence on
one Indictment for a trial under a
second Indictment and that by not
doing this the court lost jurisdiction
over TRAINER.
| Secondly, the attorneys for the de
/ fendant argued that when TRAINER
was sent to prison, he was removed
| from the jurisdiction of the court and
that this court had no right to order
him brought back to the county while
he was serving a life term in the state
prison. They argned that, if TRAINER
had committed the second offense
while in prison serving his life term,
he could have been brought out and
tried, but that there is no provision
for his removal from prison for a
crime alleged to have been committed
before he was sent there to serve life
term. when he was under Indictment
for the second offense at the time he
was sent to prison to serve term for
the first offense.
Thirdly, the attorneys for the de
| fenlant, TRAINER, claimed that the
statute provides the order in which
criminal trials shall be held and that
if The state had authority at all to
take Tramner from prison and try him,
he should have been given speedy
trial They claim that TRAINER has
been deprived of his rights, as he was
not given trial as the law provides,
but was taken from prison and held
in the county jail for some months and
that all the time sentiment was being
created against him. They argued that
the statute provides that criminal
trials must be speedy and that they
shall come ahead of other trials on
the calendar and that in this regard
the law has not been obeyed.

THE KEY TO THE
MAINE" MYSTERY

The strip of metal which proved to
be the key to the mystery of the de-
struction of the u. S. battleship
Maine is shown in two Illustrations in
the February Popular Mechanics Mag
aine. An article srat as:
'With the Identification of the strip
as bottom plate, between frames 2S
and 81, the position of the mine was
fixed as under the bottom, a little to
port, and between the frames named.
"The conclusion of the board that
a low form of explosive was used
means that a mine, not torpedo, was
the instrument used. A torpedo al.
ways contains highpower explosive,
such as nitroglycerine or similar com
pound. Black powder, low explosive,
Is used on the other hand, in mines.
That low explosive was used the
board concluded from the nature of
the sides of the cash, where this strip
was blown inward Had il been "A
high explosive, the bottom would have
been punctured neatly, instead of be-
ing torn. The difference is the same
as that in the case of rifle bullet
penetrating a pane of glass, making a
clean-cut hole, and an apple hurled by
a boy at the same piece of glass, which
would result in jagged, irregular
cash, or rupture"

WASHINGTON WOMAN
A SUCCESSFUL FARMER
Especial to the Silver State.)

(OpeclaI TO the fo1lVeT OIdCe.)
SPOKANE, Wash, Jan. 16-From
comparatively nothing to the owner
ship of over 1000 acres of excellent
wheat land in Lincoln county in the
short period of 10 years is the remark
able record made by Mrs. Josephine
Ditmar, the "wheat queen' of Rear
don. Wash The history of Mrs. Dit
mars business life for the 10 years
reads like a romance. Everything that
she acquired more than doubled in
value. Thirty-two years ago the Dit
mars left Oregon and settled near Dav-
export. At that time there were not
many houses in Spokane. After few
years the family moved near Reardon
where Mrs. Ditmar has lived ever
since. In 1902, without funds, but be-
lieving in the future of the Big Bend
country, Mrs. Ditmar purchased 720
acres of land under contract. She
was not able to pay cent down, but
by hard work, good management and
abundant crops she was able to pay
for the land in three years. From 1905
to the present time she has gradually
acquired land until today she owns
more land than any other woman in
the state. Her land at the present
time is estimated at value of $780,
900. Next year she expects to average
at least 40 bushels per acre, which will
give her return of something over
$53. 600

Nevada IN EAST
ERN L|MEL|CH7

That the east is becoming interest
ed in Nevada, particularly from an ag-
ricultural standpoint on account of the
many reclamation projects now under
way in this state, was asserted yester-
day by G. ID. Terwilliger of the Verdi
Lumber company of Verdi, who has
just returned from a month s absence
spent in Chicago, Washington, Mil
waukee and New York.
The greatest interest is being mani
tested in the cities other than New
York, according to Mr.. Terwilliger,
while in Chiago the residents of that
city, benfted by the recent land show,
are eagerly seeking additional infor-
nation concerning the resources of Ne
vada with regards to farming and
from present indications the coming
year should witness the arrival of
scores of homeseekers.
Mr. Terwilliger also stated that the
divorce question and Reno were also
subjects for chatting and during his
stay in Chicago he was frequently
called upon to explain why the people
of Nevada allowed the courts to be
used as laundries for the washing of
the domestic troubles of citizens of
other states. He attended number of
Chicago theaters and in every one the
plays carried a mention of Reno and
the divorce situation.-Reno journal.

BIG MIKE and
SON UNDER ARREST
Especial to the Silver State


LOVELOCK, Jan. 16.-At noon yes
terday Constable Wolf arrested "Big
Nike an Indian wanted for murder
ing a deuty sheriff in California, here
in town. The Indians 20-year- old
son, who is also wanted as an acces-
sorry to the murder, was not with him
at the time, but Constable Wolf, with
his prisoner handcuffed to Freedom
George, the Indian policeman, started
out to find him. At late hour last
night the boy was found in the tulies
about ten miles below town and sub
mitted to arrest quietly.
Both men admit their identity as
well as the killing, but claim that the
shooting was done in elf-defense, as
the deputy sheriff fred first shooting
the boy through the nose. The young
Indian has been deaf and dumb from
birth and is now nearly blind as re-
suit of the wound alleged to have been
received at the hands of the deputy.
The Lassen county authorities have
been notified and the prisoners will no
doubt be extradited soon. A reward
of $1,000 was offered for their capture.

ESTIMATED PRODUCTION
OF IRON ORE IN 1911

Preliminary estimates of iron ore
sold in 1911 were sent to the geologi-
cal survey by 26 of the largest iron
mining companies in the United
States at the close of year. The COM
bined output of these companies rep
resents more than 80 per cent of the
total production of the United States.
From these returns it is estimated by
f.. +. Burchard, of the survey, that
the total quantity of iron ore market
ed in the United States in 1911, not
including stocks left at the mines, was
between 100000 and 46,000,000 long
tons. This quantity represents de-
crease of % to "a per cent of the
sales for 1910, which aggregated So
$50, ,734 long tons. The output for 1910
was the largest quantity of iron ore
ever marketed in single year in the
United States, and according to the
present estimate the quantity produced
in the year 1911 will take fifth place,
being exceeded by that of 1910, 1907,
1909 and 1906 in the order named. 1t
is estimated that of the ore produced
in 1917 between 39.250,000 and AZ
900, 900 long tons was red hematite, the
tite and iron carbonate ores. ACCORDING
to the returns received the Lake Su-
perior district, in Minnesota, Michigan
and Wisconsin, apparently produced
between 33,000,000 and 35,000,000 long
tons of red and specnar hematite,
which represents decrease of % TO
2s per cent compared with the produc-
tion of l9lO--46, ,32s, ,743 long tons.
4ha oh am dio+riot Ala.
bama, the second largest iron mining
center, the production of iron ore APP
parently decreased Is to 20 per cent
from that Of 1910, the estimated pro-
auction for 1911 being between 3,050,-
with 3,s02,1l5 long tons in the preced
ing year. The ore mined in the Bir-
mingham district consists of red and
brown hematite in the proportion of
about to /.
nessee and Virginia apparently de.
cording to reports from the principal
producers in those states
Us the production of pig iron for
1911 may exceed 23,500000 tons, a
larger production of iron ore might
appear to be required than has been
estimated above, but it must be con
silered that at the close of 1910 there
was 9,40s,235 long tons of iron ore in
stock at the mines in the United
States, and that of this total SAT- Jos
long tons was at the mines in the Lake
Superior district just how heavily
It S surplus stock OF ore was drawn
upon in 1911 it is impossible to state
at present, but owing to the increased
activity in the manufacture of pig
iron toward the close of 1911 it is
probable that the 1910 surplus was in
part cleaned up and that at the end
of 1911 only a relatively small quan
tity Of iron ore remained at the mines
