ELKO PICKANINNY
A RAZOR ARTIST,

II doesn't pay for the boys in the
Elko public school to torment little
coiored girls too far, especially when
the ten veal old colored girls go to
school armed with rezors, says the
Free Press. A new record in the
cutting line in Elko was established
a day or two ago when Roberta Lusk
only ten or twelve years old. sailed
into Francis Lang with a razor and
slashed him on the wrist. His in
jury was not serious.
1t appears that the little Lusk
girl has teased the boys in public
school and they have retaliated
Then the Lusk girl thought she was
being aoused and told. her mother.
The mother, of course, heard only
the girls story, and thought it time
to call a halt and she gave the girl
a razor and told her to go for the
first boy that bothered her. The
girl went to school and the custo-
mary frolic between the children was
soon in progress. Something occur
red which angered the little Lusk
girl and she pulled out her razor
and slasbed Francis Lang across the
wrist.
The principal took the razor away
from the girl and sent word to her
mother that If the girl brought an
other razor to school that the
mother would be arrested for meeting
trouble and disturbing the peace.

HOTEL DESTROYED IN
SERIOUS LOVELOCk FIRE.

Fire which broke out in the Owl
saloon at Lovelock, at 2:15 o'clock,
Monday morning destroyed half q
block of buildings in the heart OF
the towns business district. The
Big Meadow. which was Lovelock's
principal hotel, was totally destroyed
together with the buildings in
the block as far west as the North
fern saloon. The fire was checked at
that point by the brick walls of the
building in which Harry Lynes con-
Quoted the Bank saloon. This lat
ter was a total loss. Among the
burning buildings we're the Grand
saloon, conduced by John Shumate,
the Owl saloon and another saloon
eonducte d by Bennett & Co. The
brick walls of the annex to h Big
Meadow hotel prevented the flames
from spreading to the north and the
ILovelock Mercantile company's store
and bank was saved.
The property loss is estimated at
500, 900, partly covered by insur-
ance. Half the loss will fall on the
Big Meadow Investment company,
which owned the hotel. The princi-
pal stakeholder in the company Is A
woman who lives in San Francisco.
The hotel was being conducted UNI
der lease by w. r. Chadwick, who
is also a heavy loser.
The origin of the fire is said TO
have been the explosion of a coal oil
stove in the Owl saloon. The en-
tire interior was in flames before
the alarm could be given, and then
practically nothing could be done to
check them, as 1t and the adjoining
buildings. one of which was the
hotel, we're wooden structures.
The Lovelock Offices of the West
ern Union and the Postal were in the
hotel building. putting the town out
of telegraphic communication with
the outside world except over the
Southern Pacific wires and making
it very difficult to get details of the
fire.

DEATH OF AGED INDIAN WoM-
An RECALLS TRIBAL ROMANCE

Considerable romance was at
tached to the life of the old indian
woman who was buried in the
cemetery at Stewart this week. She
was of the Piute tribe but committed
the objectionable sin of marrying a
Washoe for her first husband. rms
cut her off from her own tribe and
she was not recognized by the mem
bers of her husbands tribe. In ad-
dltion to this ostracism she Is sui
further removed from the conven-
tons of the aboriginal society by
being almost totally deaf. her only
comfort and pleasure being In the
company of her grand children. says
the Carson City News.
She was an indefatigable worker
in her younger days and this tact
gained her a second husband after
the first one joined his brethren III
the happy hunting grounds. Inc
first husband was a stalwart buck,
blind in one eye and possessed Of
much innate humor. On one occa-
sion he arrived at the home OF a
Presbyterian minister several years
ago. attired in the conventional RAD
bit-skin robe so much affected by
the Indians of those days, and his
wiry hair surmonted by a rusty
stove pipe" hat. II was Sunday
morning and the minister vas dress
ing for the Sunday services. when,
much to his surprise, he heard the
unmistaken sound of housekeeping
in his woodshed. Investigation
revealed old Tom merrily %ehopplng
wood In return for an expected
breakfast. Assuming as stern q
manner as 1t was possible for the
kindly minister TO assume, he said
Tom. don't you know IL is Sunday
you mustn't cut wood on Sunday.
With a twinkle in his eye and paus'
ing a moment with the X In the
air. he retorted: Hell. lnjun nc
eare for Sunday and resumed his
work. And the best of the joke l.
that the minister repeated the re-
mark with evident appreciation oil
the Indians side of the story.
The second husband was a mag
nifcent specimen of manhood bul

terstate commerce commission on

ker in the fight.
Some months ago the Southern
Pacific company and other carriers
officially announced certain changes
in the classification of fruits n
vegetables. The changes, by plae-
Ing these commodities in higher
classes. raised the rates from % 10
SO per cent above those now in

Secretary Walker had gone into
the matter thoroughly and prepared
elaborate calculations in tabular
form showing in an illustrative way
the effect upon Nevada of the propos-
ed changes if they are allowed TO be
made. These exhibits, according to
Judge Bartine. were by far I he
