Judge Lanqan Loses Valise.

Someone entered Judge Langan' :
room at the Holland House one night
last week, while the Judge was holding
Court in Yerington, and stole his hand
bag. The case contained only a few
triiles besides some legal papers, and
it is a mystery why anybody should
want any of these things. On Monday
last officer Ambrose arrested Chester
Barton and John Freeman on a com
plant sworn to by Harry Holland, the
proprietor of the hotel. charging the
boys with taking the valise The Jus
tice placed the boys under $500 bonds
to appear for a hearing next Monday.
They had no trouble in giving the
bonds. The valise, nor any of its con
tents, have yet been found. In all
probability it will appear that ms
take has been made in the arrest of the
boys on this charge.

are other large deposits of low-grade
ore in the district which we could
treat along with our own, thereby in
creasing the earnings of both the rail
