COUNTY PRINTING

The commissioners allowed the
Free Press $500 for printing for
the county. All but So of this was
for advertising that Commissioner
Griswold says, was ordered by the
board because the advertising could
not he done in the Wells Herald
within the time limit set by the
law. The other SO was for printing
quarantine signs.
b The bill was allowed over the
protest of the writer and the war
rant was drawn by the auditor.
From Mr.. Griswold's statement
it seems that the advertising in
the Elko papers was necessary at
the time to comply with the law.

THE HUBER JURY

There seems to be difference of
opinion as to how the jury in the
Huber case stood on the final ballot.
Three out of four of the jurors
told us last night that the final
ballot stood 6 to 6 and the other
insisted that it stood for acquit-
tai and 5 for conviction. We were
also informed that the first ballot
was taken on the question of guilt
or innocence as charged and that
it stood to 6. ca ballot was then
taken on murder in the second de-
gree and it stood 9 for conviction
to 8 for acquittal. Several other
ballots were taken on the second
degree the last one standing 6 to 6.
An effort was also made to COM
promise on life Imprisonment, but
that failed. Those voting for &C
quittal stood by their votes.
Those who voted for acquittal
were Riddle, Jewett, Truett, Sho-
har, Drown and Gibbs and those
who voted for conviction were
Woolverton, Flynn, Johnson,
Graves, Wolf and Frazier.
Serious charges are floating
around about two of the jurors.

DESERT MOVIES ENTER
TAIN POTASH CAMP

"orkmen from Railroad valley,
who have spent the summer in
drilling for potash are returning
home for the winter filed with
strange stories of the beautiful mir
age effects seen in that high coun-
try. Fl. H. Miller, foreman of the
drlllers, told some of his friends of
an uncanny experience which was
corroborated by others engaged
with him at the time.
The transmission of voices that
could only be explained by the
existing of weird electric currents
similar to the Herzian waves of the
wireless brought sounds through
the air, and it was not an uncom-
mon event to listen to men engag-
ed in loud and excited conversation
although the enunciation was not
distinct enough to enable the listen
ers to catch the exact words. As
the nearest camp was at Currant
Creek, twenty miles away, it is in
ferred that the talks occurred there
and were borne through the atmos
phere by some strange power not
known to the men at the Railroad
valley camp.
The mirage displays we're wond-
erful. One bright, sunny day when
the air was tingling with heat and
not sign of life was stirring, the
men at the drill could see, down
the valley, with all the distinctness
of man standing on the beach, a
fleet of battleships apparently en-
tering harhor. They came steam
ing on in single column with a bone
in their teeth. streams of steam
issuing from escape pipes and
smoke pouring from their tunnels.
The spectacle was one that held the
watchers spellbound. Every detail
of construction was as clear as
though the vessels were within gun
shot, but the converging. shore line
could not be identified as that of
San Francisco or San Diego, which
in an air line, would be, respective
ly 500 and $50 miles away. The
drilling crew did not have the adj
vantage of daily newspaper mail
service that could keep them posted
on the movements of the Pacific
coast fleet and therefore they never
learned what distance the reflection
carried. Another day a city street
lined with skyscrapers was seen on
the horizon, but none Of the spec
tators could recognize the build
ings. These are only instances of
atmospheric illusions which furnish
ed the men in this remote corner of
Nye County with moving pictuers
of superior quality.-Tonoah b..
nanza.

absolutely no way for them to get
out. as the sides are smooth and
sheer. So they started to moan
and fight. Later they must have
stopped the fighting and concentrat-
ed their energies on mcowing.
When the sound traversed the we'll
to the mouth and issued from it
the wall of dying baby was exact
ly initiated and the superstition in
the vicinity gave place to a wide
berth.
The Richardson and Crosby boys
are of a venturesome disposition
and they determined to investigate
the we'll yesterday and did so. The
cats chung to them desperately as
the rescue was effected. ILquiry
into how long. the animals had been
in the well, absolutely without
food or water, proved that it was
six days and twelve hours since
they must have been in the hole
starving and growing thirstier all
the time. They were very weak,
but, after being given food and
water, began to recover and today
are all right.

At the meeting of the livestoc
men yesterday it was decided not
to consolidate the different live

Association maintain its present

of the other organizations to Join

tive body of the livestock interests
