THAT ALL WHO RUN MAY READ.

At the Stevens paint shop, signs
are being completed, to be placed
along the road in Spring valley, near
Osceola. The new signs are of heavy
galvanized iron, painted white and
lettered in black. Each sign is II
by 20 inches, and the directions can
be easily read for a distance of 100
feet. The distances from accurate
measurements, are given in miles
and tenths and will prove of great
convenience to overland travellers.
The signs are to be strongly mount
ed on substantial posts, and are ex-
pected to remain permanent for
a number of years. While it Is in
tended to put up similar signs
throughout the county, the automo-
bile routes will receive the first at
tention.
In connection with the work, a
noticeable improvement has been
made to a section of the auto route
south of Copper Flat, where a new
road has been constructed, and a
II per cent grade reduced to a
maximum of eight per cent. The
road building vas completed by the
Nevada Con. company, for the Gun
ty commissioners, at a cost of so
cents per yard, a quarter of the job
being rock work.

Sheriff C. S. Grain returned to
Ely, Thursday afternoon, from
Pleasant Valley. where he went to
arrest Chris. Johnson, charged with
grand larceny, on complaint of F.

serving of the warrant, and came to
Ely unaecompanied, on horseback,
arriving here ahead of the sheriff
who made the trip of more than two
hundred miles in George letters

the wheel.
The complaint sets forth that
Johnson appropriated a horse owned
by Doutre, and afterwards sold the
animal. Johnson was arraigned

ing of the warrant the case was con-
tinued until Monday, when there will

1t Is asserted that when Receiver
Wildes took charge he found in the
assets over 5000, 900 shares of min
ing stock accepted as collateral,
which bore no reasonable relation to
the amount loaned.
The ending of the suit was by con
sen of the receiver, who has de-
clared a dividend of 10 per cent for
the depositors. This makes a total
of 20 per cent from the defunet
bank, two previous dividends of 5
per cent each having been paid.
Other assets of the bank, accord
ing to c. E. Mack are in addition to
the 10, 600, 600 shares of stock, bank
buildings in Carson, Tonopah, Gold
field, and Blair, Nevada; other real
ty acquired by settlements and sew
eral mining claims, including the
Jumping Jack, Indian Camp and
Stray Dog and the Hailstone and Ea-
gle's Nest of Fairyiew, which are
said to have some promise. They
were originally L. NJ. Sullivan Trust
company stocks and the Sullivan
failure was the first straw that help
ed to break the Hickey string of
banks.
Attorney Mack said that the out

irresistible, destroying flood, that
passes onward almost as quickly as
it originates, sweeping everything in
its path until the waters find outlet
sufficient to dissipate their energy.
While floods from such causes an
nually claim their human salvage, in
all parts of the world, the past
week has been unusual, with
a record of similar disasters extend
ing from this state to as far east as
Pennsylvania, all accompanied with
loss of life and great money loss, par
ticularly in Denver, where property
was destroyed to the extent of hun
dreds OF thousands of dollars.
No doubt the unusually hot wealth
er which has prevailed oyer a great
er portion OF the ountfy lot lne
past ten days, has something to do
with the cloud bursts which inyari-
ably follow in the wake of such ex-
IRENE and prolonged periods of heat.
In the Ely district there was no hint
of the disturbances elsewhere To he
sure, there was more or less light
ming and ~deep-yoiced thunder, but the
electrical demonstration only tended
to temper an atmosphere generally
delightful, while the accompanying
rain came in a manner and quantity
to be a benefit and a blessing.

BRINGS SUIT FOR DAMAGES.

Alleging that negligence of the
company was responsible for acct
dent which resulted in the loss of his
foot, william r. Wood, of Salt Lake
has brought suit against the Nevada
Consolidated Copper company, to re-
cover for personal injuries, in the
sum of $4,000. The action was fill
ed Friday morning, by William E.
Billings, attorney for the plaintiff.
The accident which has resulted
in the suit. took place at Copper Flat
on the night of August 3, 1910.
Woods was employed as a brakeman,
and while coupling cars was caught
in such a manne as to have his right
foot crushed so badly that 1t was
necessary to amputate a portion of
the member.
The allegation of the plaintiff is
that the company was negligent in
not providing a safe place and suffic-
lent light in which to make the
coupling, and that the injury to his
foot has incapacitated him for pursu-
ing his vocation as a railroad man,
whereby he supported his family.

TAKING THE SOUTHERN ROUTE.

Reno stands a splendid chance
although the adjective should have
reverse English on its meaning-to
lose the distinction, the pleasure and
the profit of being on the proposed
inter-ocean highway.
The people of Los Angeles have
shown their proverbial cleverness
and shrewdness in placing sign
boards and distance marks along
the roads from Ely to southern Cali
fornia.
The result is that a majority of
the auto parties crossing the CONT
nent now traverse the Goldield way
instead of the Reno route.
Even If the wealthy counties of
Elko, Eureka, Lander, Humboldt,
Churchill and Washoe do not feel
that they can afford to improve the
thoroughfare across the state that
leads by the way of Reno and Emf
grant Gap to California, they certain
ly could easily spare the cost of de-
signaling the roads and informing
the autoists of the distance to be
traveled.-Reno Gazette.

THE MAZUMA TRAGEDY.

That was a terrible disaster which
overwhelmed the mining camp of

But a cloudburst is not Characters

END OF FAMOUS BANK SUIT.

litigation directed by the receiver
Frank Wildes, against the directors
of the defunet State Bank and Trust
company came to an end Tuesday,
in the district court at Carson City.
after nearly four years in legal war
fare, by the confession of judgment
in the sum of $4,000 on the part of
several defendants. The confession
of judgment was entered by stipula-
ton of counsel and the settlement
had the approval of presiding Judge
Frank p. Langan to whom the re-
ceiver is accountable.
The case which was an action for
an accounting, followed the failure
of the State Bank and Trust COM
pany, October 23, 1907, was begun
by Frank Wildes as receiver against
the defenants, officers and directors
of the defunct bank.
The history of the litigation has
been one of the longest and most
troublesome of recent years. Receiy-
err Wildes was appointed on May
IS, 1908, and retained as counsel
Messrs. Mack and Green of Reno.
Later A. A. Heer entered the firm
and took part In the proceedings. An
action for an accounting was begun
in the district of Nevada. On the
initiative of defendant T. B. Hickey,
the case was removed to the federal
court, which sent ii back to the
state court. Before trial a law was
passed taking the receivership out Of
the hands of Wildes. The law went
before the supreme court and was
declared unconstitutional as to that
feature. Trial was resumed In the
district court and the case ended
with confession of judgment.
In the original suit the directors
were charged with misfeasance, non
feasancc and malfeasance and gross
neglect of their duties. 1t was repre-
sented that dividends to the amount
of S40,0 900 had been declared while
the bank was insolvent; that $780,
900 had been expended in Tonopah,
contrary to the charter, in the cree
ton of a building far larger than re-
quired for the needs of the bank;
that the directors had sanctioned
trades in accounts, permitting some
depositors to recoup and make them
selves whole during the period of in
solvency, to the detriment of others
not so favored; that large sums had
been loaned informally and contrary
to the charter which provided that
no loan over $4,000 should be made
except by a meeting of directors and
the favoring vote of seven of them;
that loans to the extent of $1,000
900 had been made in this way; that
a great part of the loans had been
made by T. B. Hickey on the COLA

New York.-Visitors to Central
park within the last few days, and
those who walk along the Fifth ave-
nue. side OF the park, have been ap-
palled at the destruction done to the
fine elm trees by thousands of cater
pillars, remarks a writer in the New
York Tribune. They are the tussock
moths, long known among landscape
gardeners as one of the most persis-
tent and destructive insects with
which they have to deal. Within
the limits of Central park they seem
to have sprung into life in unusually
large numbers this year. Charles
Downing Lay, the landscape architect
OF the park. said recently that in a
recent trip through the parks OF
Brooklyn and the Bronx he saw com.
paratively few OF them.

OF New York's fine trees, have called

affairs, and have not hesitated to say

which they are now doing by the
