that the honor this time belongs to the
KensinSton man.
Supporter of Senator Lee.
1t is pointed out that in 1909 there was
movement in the county for Mr.. Will
liams to succeed Senator Lee in the
state senate. but Mr.. Williams would not
consider contest and earnestly sup
ported Senator Lee, as he did, it is said.
also in the last gubernatorial primary.
Had Senator Lee been maue governor
it is the general opinion that Mr.. Will
iams would have been chosen to fill
out his unexpired term as state senator
probably without a contest

PERMANENT INJUNCTION
ISSUED AGAINST THE NENZELS

Judge Harrington in the federal
court at Carson City. Monday made
permanent the injunction against
Joseph Nenzel, Mrs. Mcneil and the
Nenzel company to hold certain
stock and interests in mining prop
critics at Rochester in statu quo.
Further evidence was introduc-
ed by the plaintiffs, DR.. |. p. George,
Sam and Peter Stevens. as to the
partnership relation alleged and as
to the transactions in dispute.
Little evidence was introduced on
behalf of the respondents. The
bond on the injunction was fixed at
100000.
The case in chief on the merits
of the points in controversy is ex-
pected to come up in the federal
court within a short time.
The effect of the injunction will
not disturb the mining company nor
the mining operations or the l~easers.
1t simply has to do with the
personal rights of the claimants to
stock in the company.

RICH ORE FROM PEAyINE.

Four carloads of ore in the
yards of the N. C. o., at Reno, at
tract nearly a hundred mining men
during the day. The ore runs strong
in copper, gold and silver, and added
from a point only about IA miles
from Reno-the Warner, Nelson and
Ray property on the northwest slope
of Peavine mountain. Two of the
cars are loaded with high grade and
the other two with low grade, all of

A sample of the high grade
stuff weighing over 200 pounds has
been placed on exhibition in the
window of the VIII F. Heffernan

So per cent copper. about SO gold
and probably s11.40 silver. a total of
approximately $216.40 per ton.
The Warner, Nelson Ray eombi-

sen a small shipment of ore to Hazen
for sampling purposes. They are
now down nearly 200 feet and have
been doing a great deal of develop

work will be continued, and it is ex-
pected that regular shipments of ore
will be made in the near future from
the 10 properties they control. At

their heads for the next few day: I'M

trustingly giving up their valuables

For some days two women,
described as mother and daughter,
have been making the rounds of
Reno homes and have represented
themselves as professional hair re-
storers. They promised to take false
hair, such as wigs and switches, and
restore them to their natural state
of beauty. Many persons agreed to
the proposition, evidently, for there
were numerous complaints at police
headquarters from who want
ed to know what steps they should
take to have their hair restored to
them.

none of those who have been vic
timized care to come forward and

NuRDERER MIRkOVICH
Is AWAITING HIS DOOM

Andrija Mirkovich, the condemn
ed Tonopah murderer awaiting ex-
eeution at the state prison at Car
son. is now in the condemned cell,
according to report from the north.
The warden is awaiting the action Of
the Tonopah court, in setting a date
for the execution following the re-
fusal of the supreme court to grant
a new trial to the condemned man.
The upreme court refused the
motion for a new trial over a month
ago but no official communication
has been directed TO the local court
conveying this information and au-
thorizing Judge Averill to again
name the date of execution. The
delay appears to be in the Office OF
clerk of the supreme court, and
pending the arrival of such an order
no action can be taken.
Mirkoyich will be executed by
shooting. a device having been pur-
chased by the state thai holds and
discharges several rifles pointed at
the condemned man. This will do
away with the method in other
states where a squad of prison
guards concealed. fire a yolley at
the prisoner. Several of the rifles
are usually loaded with blank shells.
