An Insult to the Kaiser

Midas Criterion, liquor journal of considerable
influence with the trade takes editorial notice of EN-
peror Williams declaration for total abstinence. The
Criterion admits that "the action of the kaiser may
have an effect on the young men of Germany moderat-
ing their ardors as devotees of Gambrnus" and evil

at the kaiser in the following language

THE SMALLPOX SITUATION

Considerable uneasiness has de-
veloped the past week on account of
the cases of small pox which have ap-
peared in Ely. Sunday, the doctors
diagnosed as smallpox the illness with
which one of the teachers in the Ely
school was afflicted, and on Monday
official announcement was made that
there would be no more school until
further notice. The teacher has been
quarantined in comfortable quarters
and the case is not expected to prove
serious.
Tuesday, another case developed in
the Indian camp, and strict quaran-
tine is being kept on that location. A
general vaccination of the Indians has
been ordered, and is being accomplish
ed without much trouble, the Indians
submitting to the operation without
much protest.
The board of health has also ord
cred that all children unable to show
proof of recent vaccination, shall be-
fore entering school, present to the
teacher or principal, a certificate of
vaccination, signed by the physician
anyone unable to pay for the vaccina-
tion of their children, are authorized
to take them TO DR.. w. T. Gleason,
county physician, or to Dr. Alexander,
who will perform the service without
charge.
The local theaters have been thor
oughly fumigated, and the officials are
taking all means possible to prevent
any further spread of the disease. In
fact, it is believed the situation is
well in hand, and that there is no
cause for alarm as to fear of an cpl
demic. None of the cases are of Sc
we're form.

UNCLE SANS PAPER BILL

John A. Gill of the Southern Pacific,
after spending a few days in the dis
trict looking over traffic matters in
the interests of his road, and assur-
ing shippers and passengers. that the
s. P. was not blocked at any point
on its line by snow or other troubles,
and that all trains were running on
schedule, left for Reno, yesterday
morning. Mr.. Gill sees nothing but
good times ahead for this section and
the state in general, but thinks a lit
tie more snow would help some. In
speaking of business conditions he
said:
Very few people are posted con-
cerning what a good customer Uncle
Sam is of American industries. Take
the annual contract for paper, which
amounts to 320,O00O00 pounds at a
cost of SLIPS, 900, which is used by
the government printing office, six
million pounds of which is postal card
paper. Estimating $4,000 pounds to a
car, means one thousand carloads, or
solid train of seven miles-all bought
in the United States, from 3S firms"

TRAIN STRIKES TEAM
ON STREET CROSSING

An accident that resulted in the
killing of one horse and injury to an
other, with the miraculous escape
from death of two men, occurred on
the railroad crossing near the upper
tunnel, Monday, when a Nevada North
ern locomotive struck a team that
undertook to cross ahead of the train.
Both men were thrown out of the
rig, but escaped injury. The cross
ing signal bell was ringing, but the
driver of the team according to his
reported statement miscalculated as
to distance and speed of the train,
with the results as stated. He has
probably come to the conclusion, that
it is not a safe plan to take chances
with a locomotive on a crossing.

Especial Correspondence TO White

Chin Creek, Jan. q, 1913.

'opecidi correspondence 10 White
Pine News
Chin Creek, Jan. 81, 1913.
On last Thursday as Mr.. Frank Nc
curdy of the company of McCurdy &
Chapman, owners OF one of the larg.
est flocks of sheep in Nevada, was out
in the forest not far from home when
he discovered not far away a good
sized mountain lioness near to where
1t had but recently made prey of a
saddle horse belonging to Indian
Frank, who is one of the aforesaid
firms sheepherders.
Returning home Mr.. McCurdy re.
lated the above to his wife who en-.
couraged him to go in pursuit of the
beast the next day So on the NOR
row, Mr.. McCurdy accompanied by
Archie Ferry, an employe, and the
dogs, started forth in full confidence.
About IL a. m. they came in sight of
the cougar and gave chase. The
dogs soon treed the beast and the
men approached the tree where the
dogs had located the quarry. Pine
trees are not very high in this vi
cinity and the dogs made a frantic eff
fort TO go up after the lioness.
Archie. getting too close to the
beast to please her, she made a spring
for him when Mr.. McCurdy fired just
in time TO save the boy
Noticing tracks of a kitten they
started for the same and within a
distance of half a mile added further
to their laurels and towards evening
greatly surprised the family by bring
ing home two panthers.
Mrs. McCurdy was so elated over
the achievement of her husband, who
she says never fails to hit the mark
when he fires, that she gave him
such an embrace as is most common
in days OF courtship.
Mr.. Mccurdy, thus rewarded, during
the night was dreaming of still furth
er conquest, | may add here that
most any man would brave a host OF
wild beasts for the sake of a womans
embrace.
Mr.. McCurdy concluded and justly
so that another cub must be still in
the forest and too not far from the
scene of the last battle so these two
men started out on Saturday about
noon, overlook the cub which was
soon freed. Having determined that
he'd capture the thing alive or Alice
McCurdy would be a widow before
night. Mr. McCurdy and Archie had
to set fire to the tree. The kitten
sprang to another tree where after
many very weary efforts Mr. McCurdy
succeeded in lassoing 1t.
The cub was fortunately choked
when 1t fell so that It was easy to
tie its feet.
At the suggestion of Archie, a very
resoureeful boy, it was brought home
on the branches of a cedar tree i'm
proyised as a sled
Thus within two days our heroes,
as budding Nimrods. had captured
three catamounts-one of which was
aliye-a feat probably never before
accomplished probably on this coast.
The mothers pelt measured Sl5 feet
and II stood 30 inches high. She
gave evidence of old age and had
doubtless done very much damage TO
stock in her time.
The kitten is for sale and should
be cheap at $50 It's about months
old and is a fine specimen.

HER PETS ASHES BY POST.
Woman Gets Disputed Package by
Describing Contents.

ErUm the New ! INK sun
The mail clerk OF the Hotel McAlpin
was called on yesterday to referee a
dispute about the ownership of a pack
age addressed BY parcel post to the
hotel. 1t was due 10 coincidence IN
the names of a man and a woman. An
identification by the woman OF the con-
tents of the package established her
claim when she explained that the ooA
contained the ashes of her Boston ter
rier, which had been shipped here at
her request.
1t was then that Frank +. Weston.
sales manager of the :. Il. V. Motor
Car Company, of Reading Pa, began
to regret his part in gthe affair lie
had been notified that package ad-
dressed to +. +. Weston had come by
parcel post. When he called for II at
the desk. the clerk was engaged with
Mrs. Weston, who has just claimed d
reservation made from Chicago.
She was asking eagerly for pack
age which she had expected to find
awaiting her. After some discussion
as to the owner, Mrs. Weston overcame
her nervousness sufficiently TO offer a
description of what the box would
prove to contain when IL was opened.
She said the dog had been her COM
panion for nine years and had crossed
the Atlantic with her on no fewer than
five times. While she was visiting in
Chicago he died. She had instructed
her friends in Washington. who had
been taking care Of him. to cremate
the remains and ship them to the Nc
Alpin.
