IS KILLED BY YOUTH

What is probably the largest
mountain lion ever killed in White
Pine county fell a victim to the
unerring aim of Henry Yelland,
oil the east side of Spring valley
last Monday. The animal measured
nine feet SIX inches from tip to tip
and weighed more than 800
pounds.
Mr.. Yell and arrived in Ely
Friday afternoon with the huge
pelt, and brought in the hides of
to wildcats and 35 coyotes. He
received neat sum from the
county in bounties for the calps
Of thes predatory animals.
The lad has been attempting for
more than two months to either
trap or poison the lion, which
made frequent in reads on Mr..
Yelland's herds of Angora goats,
having killed twenty-five since the
beginning of the season. Visiting
the traps last Monday in company
with Ross Anderson, young Yelland
discovered that the lion had caught
one foot in the trap, and had
wandered off about one-fourth of
a mile dragging the trap and the
heavy log to which it had been at
tached. When the hunters came
upon the lion, Mr.. Yelland fired
at the animal, the bullet ploughIng

REGENTS ABOLISH
HIGH SCHOOL

At the close of the present
school year the university high
school, long a feature of the insti-
tuition, will b. closed and there
after there will be no university
high school. The order to abolish
the high school was passed by the
board of regents at the regul ar
meeting yesterday. 1t was
dictated by two considerations,
first, economy, and second, the
fact that the need for high school
is no longer vital. High schools
throughout the state have reached
a point Of excellence insuring
admittance to most Of the graduates
direct to the freshman year at
the university without further
preliminary education. The
economy feature too. was a press
ing one. In view of the depletion
of the fund in the state treasury
it was necessary to curtail expenses
SO far as possible, according to one
of the regents. This FASTENED en-
action long cOnsidered.-Jounral.

FIT OF PROSPECTORS

AS an adjunt to the investigation
of the fertilizer sources, and
especially to the search for potash
in the United States now being
conducted by government agencies,
there has been established at the
Mackay School of Mines, Reno,
Nevada. a laboraory for the tx
animation of natural materials
suspected Of containing potash.
The laboratory has been organi-
zed under a cooperative agreement
between the Mackay School of
Mines, the Bureau of Soils of the
United States Department of
Agriculture and the United States
Geological Survey. The laboratory
is in charge of Prof. George j.
Young, of the Mackey School Of
Mines, with A. R. Merz, of the
Bureau of Soils, as chemist.
Facilities have been provided for
the examination and assay of
potash-bearing materials, and of
saline waters and minerals. 1t
will be possible, also, to examine
a limited number of samples for
contained nitrates.
Samples of suspected potash or
misunderstanding material will be
examined free of charge for pro-
spectors and others, So far as
limitations of time and equipment
of the laboratory will permit, but

SHEEP RAVAGING
NEVADA RANGES

White Pine county is experience
ing an invasion that threatens to
drive all the cattle raisers out of
that line of business and put a
crimp in the prosperity of the
sheepmeH. This invasion is ky
herds of sheep that come from
the north and ravage the range of
all the feed that rightfully belongs
to the local stockmen, and they do
this without the owners uf the
bands being compelled 10 pay their
just proportion of taxation and
without obtaining a sheep license
as the law requires.
For many years it has been the
custom of sleep raisers of Idaho
and Montana to drive them back
in the spring. This year. because
of the mildness of the weather,
many of the bands that were
started for southern parts have
RENAME in White Pine county to
the number, according to some
stockmen, of between 100000 and
500,0JO. AS but littl snow has
fallen this year the valleys have
been dry and so the sheep are being
pastured up in the hills where
they are diligently eating up the
feed on the summer range that
should not be occupied at this time
Of the year but reserved for the
hot summer months when the feed
will be needed for the sheep that
are owned in this county and on
which their owners are assessed
and pay taxes.
During the lsat year some of the
stockmcn Of the county have sold
off their cattle and have taken to
sheep raising instead as there are
so many shee in the county that
cattle raising is getting ia be un-
profitable. The result will be
that local consumers will soon
have to depend almost entirely on
foreign grown beef to supply their
demands as there will be little or
no beef cattle raised in the county.
Sheepmen also see their finish
if outside sheep are to be per-
mitted to range in this county and
resent the invasion of the bands
because they need the feed for
their own sheep and because the
intrnders do not contribute any
thing to the county treasury,
Nye county treasury, in the
northern end, is experiencing the
samekind of invasion land in the
vicinity of Duckwater there is said
to be 10000 sheep that do not
belong there that will be kent

DISTRICT COURT

Late wednesday afternoon, the
evidence for the state closed in, the
Jack Mayer case. At the request
of the State, Judge Somers, the
jury, defendant, clerk and counsel
visited the room and premises
where the roulette game was con-
Quoted and also the remains Of the
roulette table. Deputy Sheriff
Keyser was appointed by Judge
Somers to conduct the jury to the
premises and point. out the differ
ent places mentioned in the evil
dence. The parties viewed the
premises and returned to the
courtroom at 6 o'clock.
The court then adjourned until
8 o'clock Thursday morning.
= When court convened this
morning the defense submitted no
evidence and Judge Somers read
his instructions to the jury. The
instructions are stronger for the
State than those given by Judge
Taber in the Thompson and
Foragor case.
Attorney Martinson made the
opening argument for the State.
We failed to hear the greater part
Of his address. In the part we
heard he pointed out the strong
points of the evidence in the case
and urged the jurors to keep the
promises they made whcr
examined and render a verdict
according to the law and the
evidence.
Mr.. Martinson was followed by
Mr.. Gedney. He said there were
three witnesses in the case and FIVE
different stories three Of which
were told by Mr.. Dysart. He
claimed the state had no case. lie
worked on the sympathy of the
jury and painted a word picture of
Maher, highly respectable man,
in stripes and urged the jury not to
so degrade him by a verdict cf
guilty.
At the conclusion of his remarks
the court took a recess.
On recommending q Attorney
Christianson began the closing
address for the defense. He spoke
of the ten commandments. which
he said contained the law for the
government of the human race,
but which said nothing about
gambling being a crime. He
criticised the evidence given by
Mr.. Dysart and claimed that he
had testified differently from what
the had testified to in the trial of
Thompson and Forgor.
He spoke until nearly noon and
then at his request the court took
a recess until 2 o'clock.
At the afternoon session Mr..
Christianson resumed his argu-
ment and concluded about 2:40.
Judge Curler then began the
closing address. He was still
speaking when this report closed
at 3:4O.
The case will be in the hands of
the jury before this issue reaches
its readers.
