LAW CHANGING
DISTRICT JUDGES
PROVES FAILURE
BILL BADLY JuM5LED UP WHEN
IN THE HANDS OF ENGRos-
SING CLERKS.

One of the laws that failed at
the last Legislative session is the new
judicial measure, which provided an
other judicial district and which was
worked out by practically all of the
counties of the state. AS a result OF
this attempted legislation three diff
ferent bills were sent through the
session, the last being framed up by
the Lyon and Churchill delegations.
1t seemed to be all right. 1t now
develops that in the engrossing the
bill was badly jumbled and it pro-
vides of doubling of judges all round.
The result is the bill is invalid and
will be classed among the other fail
ures of the session.
Lyon and Churchill counties decid
ed that they wanted district by
themselves. Washoe county wanted
to lop off Judge and Clark anc

new DEVICE IS
TO BE USED FOR
ALL EXECUTIONS

Inspector P. M. Newgaard of the
Nevada state police spent yesterday
in Reno and returned to headquar-
tiers at Carson City this morning,
says the Gazette Newgaard reports
that the state police department has
been withdrawn from Rochester,
where it was sent last month on
request of the county commissioners
of Humboldt county. While the
camp at thata time appeared full Of
tough characters, there was no at
tempt at lawlessness while the mem
bers of the state police were there.
Newgaard says a mistaken idea
has prevailed relative to the execu-
ton of ]. F. Trammer. which was
supposed to have been scheduled for
tomorrow. The date of TANNERS
execution which on his request will
be by shooting, was originally set
for date early in May. but there is
little likelihood of its taking place
on the day set. as there is new
appeal on motion denying a new
rial pending before the supreme
court

decision of the court is adverse t.

finally sifted down to the third or
compromise bill, which was passed.
That bill is now a dead one
The law made Storey, Douglas and
Ormsby a district. This was agree
able to the three counties and the
judges salary was trimmed down so
that it would not bring a greater ex-
pense upon the three counties. The
fact that the law is defective will

tainment for Music Lovers.

The Rose Maiden" as presented at
the Grand theatre last night, by local
talent, under the auspices of the Y.
M. G. A., was a huge success from ev-
cry point Of view. There was a good
house and a deservedly appreciative
audience.
The music was good-especially
good because Of its sweet simplicity,
and the various numbers as rendered
showed both thoughtful training on
the part of Director r. B. Carson, and
conscientious study and practice on
the part of all those participating,
The first impression upon the rails
ing Of the curtain was indeed pleas
ing one, and with each succeeding
number the interest and pleasure OF
the audience was substantially shown
by rounds Of hearty applause.
The work involved in the program
as rendered signified no small under
taking, and be it said to the credit OF
Salem's musical talent and the untir-
ing efforts of the directors that last
nights affair was a crowning and
complete success.
The piano solo by Mrs. w. II. Burg.
hart, Jr., and her accompaniment Of
the various numbers was great-she
was one Of the stars Of the evening
and a musician Of whom Salem can
well afford to feel proud, Mrs r, NJ
Hofer has a rich soprano voice, and
sang with much expression. Mrs
John j. Roberts sang her numbers in
a manner which showed off her fine
contralto voice to excellent advant.

with Salem audiences came to the
front in fine shape-although Mr.
Hughes had temporarily passed NJ

Hull sang the baritone parts excel

cast Of the experienced teacher and
singer. VIM McGillchrist, Sr., ant
DR. Epley still retain a very warn
spot in the hearts of their old friends
and their fine work last night won
them lots of new friends.
Conspicuous in the excellent chorus
were Mr.. and Mrs Morrison Reid, tC
whom, in a large measure, this music,
al treat was due. Mrs. r. NJ. Hofer

The affair, as a whole, reflects
much credit upon every one taking
part, and "The Rose Maiden" will lone

the music-loving public of Salem.
