TONoPAH SCHOOLS CLOSED
BECAUSE OF SCARLET FEVER.

Fear of a general epidemic OF scar
LET fever resulted in the Tonopah
board of school trustees issuing an
order closing the local schools for an
indefinite period.
According to the reports of physi-
clans submitted to DIR. Richards
there are sixteen cases OF scarlet
fever now under observation that are
being treated in the city. but in every
case the illness is slight in character.
No patient is seriously i'll and several
occurrences were reported where
parents did not even consult a ply
scian when their children were first
taken i'll.
Ii is the extreme light nature of
the malady that accounts for the gen
eral spread. Children have moi been
confined to their homes, and to he
contrary have been allowed to be on
the street mingling with other child
rem, and in an instance or two haze
been permitted TO attend school.

DEMENTED MAN HIDES, IN
FEAR OF BEING KILLED.

For some months past reports
have been coming in that a crazy
mar has been running about the
country, and the officers have been
on the lookout for him. Last week
an Indian trapper came into Wells
and reported that he had e e a man
answering the description, who was
living in a deserted cabin south of
that place. says the Elko Free Press.
The officers went out and found a
demented man, who gave his name
as John Desmond, and who was in
poor physical condition owing to the
hardships he had been through. He
was brought to Elko. and according
to his story he is in fear of being
killed by certain Carlin people. Last
fall he was in that town and some
one, he says, told him to get out and
never come back or they would kill
him. Since that time he has hidden
away from everybody. living in hay
stacks and eating what be could
steal. He says that he has lived on
wheat principally, and when arrested
his pockets were filled with grain.
He was given an examination in the
district court as Il his mental con-
dition. and was sentenced to the
state insane asylum at Reno and
Sheriff Harris left Tuesday on No. 3

KNOTS UNITED.

Pearl Knots of California secured
a decree of divorce Tuesday, at Reno,
in Judge Moran's court from Bernard
Knott, a San Luis Obispo saloon
keeper. Her maiden name. Pearl
Drumm. was granted.
Mrs. Knots charges were cruelty,
failure to provide and desertion. In
support of the first charge she reeited
that about two weeks after she was
married, her husband and her hus-
bands brother began to argue in her
presence as to whether or not she
padded To prove his confidence
in his wife. Knots threw her upon
the floor and tore open her shirt
waist. On other occasions Knots
acted discourteous to girl friends of
his wife's who visited her home, and
as a result they stayed away except
when they knew Knots was absent.
Knots went into the saloon business
several years after the marriage in
1906. Up to that time Mrs. Knots
had been reasonably happy. but after
that time there we're frequent
quarrels, ending with the refusal of
Mrs. Knots to go out to dinner with
her husband when he was drunk.
He then ordered her from the house.

The car il is announced will con
tain many horrible examples.
Some of the sheep will be picked
members of the genus scrub, so
that the onlooker can see at a glance
the disadvantage of breeding this
species of animal. First class animals
of finest breed will be alongside the
culls to make the contrast even more
noticeable. The demonstration car
will soon start from Chicago on its
