the success OF his experiment Koch
administered additional doses OF fuid

But now the entire flock seems to

MRS. ]. S. GARDNER

This community was shocked
this forenoon by the news that
Mrs. J. S. Gardner had passed
away at her home. But few out
side the family knew that she
was not in her usual health and
the news of her death came as
peal of thunder out IF cloudless
sky.
She had an attack of stomach
trouble Saturday, but that seemed
to yield to treatment and yester-
day she was unusually lively. Tues
day night about IL o'clock she was
taken with neuralgia of the heart.
She suffered greatly until IL 40
this Wednesday, forenoon when
she peacefully passed over the
divide into the land of eternal
rest.
Mrs. Gardner was born in New
jersey, August %, 1916. When
'but a child hel parents went to
California, by way of the isthmus,
and settled in Marysville. When
about fifteen years of age, the
family moved to Virginia City in
this state. There she married Mr..
Joel S. Gardner, who passed away
on August 2. 1911. In 1869, she
came to Elko and has lived here
almost constantly since that time.
Six grown children, Mrs. Oliver
of Sparks, Misses Rose and May
and Mrs. Wintermantel and Charles
of Elko and Joel of Sacramento,
survive her Miss May was the
only one at her bedside when the
summons came. Miss Rose is in
Reno, Mrs. Oliver and Mrs. Winter
mantel are in California and
Charles was at his work in town.
Mrs. Gardner was one of Elko's
most highly respected women.
She was a true wife and mother.
In all the years she has lived here,
she has had the unbouuded love
and respect of all who knew her.
Truly, mother in Israel has gone
from our midst.
The sympathy of the community
goes out to the stricken family.
May the memory Of their Inother's
love and th"ir mothers unselfish
devotion comic and console them.
Owing to the children being
scattered, no arrangements for the
funeral have yet been made.

CONvICTS ESCAPE
FROM PRISON FARM

Word was received here this
morning of the escape of two
convicts from the State Prison
farm. They are William Calvert
alias Bill Calvert, No. 146O, and
Ernest C. Williams No. 1440,
Williams was considered a trust
worthy prisoner and was employed
for time, as second cook in the
prison kitchen. Calvert is a second
termer and dangerous man.
They are mounted on two fast
prison horses, on which they made
their escape. bay and a black.
Just in what direction the men
are headed is still in doubt, but,
Lieutenant Stone has found some
evidence that indicates they are
headed in the direction of Mound
House. He las procured an auto
mobile and is heading the search
in that direction. Sergent New
gard and Sergent Fravel a.e lead
ing it in other directions.
Captain Donelly and Lacy left
on a hurry call last night to
Mazuma where thievery and de-
predations of different kinds hav
made their presence imperative.
Hence, they will be unable to aid
in the search.
Since the report of the escaped,
thorough search has heen made of
all the canyons and possible hiding
places about this city, but no trace
of them has be found here.
The prisoners escaped some
time during the night, at just
what hour is not known and,
despite every effort to locate them,
they have as yet covered their
tracks pretty thol ougbly.
Calvert is an ex-convict having
served term at Boise for grand
larceny. He was sent to the
Nevada Prison from Humboldt
county for the same otfense.
Williams was also sent from Hum
boldt county Nov, /. 1911. To servo

ATTITUDES in UNITED STATES

The difference between the
eastern and western elevations in
this country are curiously strik-
ing, says the New YORK Sun.
Colorado has forty peaks that are
more than $4,000 feet above sea
level. Mount Washington, in New
Hampshire, and Mount Mitchell,
in North Carolina, the highest
peaks in the Appalachian system,
north and south, respectively, are
considerably less than half as hign
as this above the ocean.
Several transcontinental railway
lines in the west pull their main
line trains over greater elevate IN
than that reached by the cog rail-
road up New Hampshire's above
mentioned peak. These western
elevations are, of course, reached
gradually.
Most large cities lie. low.
Chicgeo is only about 600 feet
above sea level and Pittsburgh but
hundred feet higher. Philadelphia
ranges from sea level to a height
in its suburbs of some 800 feet.
Minneapolis, near the head of the
Mississippi. has an elevation of less
than 1000 feet and various parts
Of New Orleans, at the mouth of
the great river are recorded in
the government tables as having
elevation of from one foot to fifty
feet. ST. Louis lies about halfway
between these terminal cities.
Montana is away up, with it's
leading city perched at an elevation
of the highest peaks of the Adiron-
dack mountains. Denver there is
