JURY RETURNS VERDICT
MURDER FIRST DEGREE

Guilty of murder in the first degree
without recommendations, which car
ries the death penalty with it, was the
verdict brought in by the jury at 9:25
last night in the Salgado murder case.
The arguments were finished and
the case given to the jury at 10 min
utes after six last night, and the first
thing the jury did was to go to sup
per. The first, second and third bal
lots were on the degree of guilt of
the defendant and never at any time
did the jury entertain any doubt of
his guilt, but one among the twelve
thought life imprisonment was severe
enough After several ballots had
been taken, it was. agreed that 7the
verdict of guilty be handed IN ro<the
court without recommendation, and
as this means the death penalty, Jose
Salgada will be either shot or hung
for the killing of Bessie Andy, an In
dian girl, on last Thanksgiving night.
Judge Taber set the time for the
passing of sentence for Saturday
morning at 11:30 o'clock. Sheriff Har-
ris has placed the prisoner in solitary
confinement and a guard is with him
constantly The prisoner is really
more at ease now after he has learned
his fate than during the time of the
trial, when at times he was exceed
ingly nervous.-Elko Free Press.

SEASONS WOOL
NEARLY ALL SOLD

Practically the entire seasons clip
Of Humboldt county wool has been
sold, at prices ranging from IL to IA
cents. About 75 per cent of the clip
was purchased by W. A. Donald, rep
resenting Eisemann Bros, Boston.
The first wool sold early in the
year, brought IL cents, but owing to
the shortage in the worlds stocks
prices stiffened in London, which had
a bullish effect on the American mar
ket. The market advanced one and
two cents, at which price the greater
part of the Humboldt county wool was
disposed of. However, during the
past week or ten days, further ad-
vance was noted, extra fine clips be-
ing sold at IA cents in the local mar
ket
Six years ago conditions were prac-
tically the same as today, when wool
was selling here at Is and 90 cents,
and it is likely that had the old tar
iff been in effect, the same prices
would have been paid for this year. 8

At that time, Mary Magdalen and
Mary the mother of Jesus and Saome
brought sweet spices, that coming
they might annoint the body of Jesus.
And very early in the morning, the
first day of the week, they came to
the sepulchre, the sun being now ris-
en-. And they said one to another:
Who shall roll us back the stone from
the door of the sepulehrea And look
ing. they saw the stone rolled back;
for it was very great. And entering
into the sepulchre, they saw young
man sitting on the right side, clothed
with white garment; and they were
astonished; who saith to them: Be
not afrighted. You seek Jesus of
Nazareth, who was curcifed. He is
not here; behold the place where
they laid Him. But go tell His dis
ciples and Peter that He goeth be
fore you into Gallilee; there you shall
see Him, as He told you. Gospel of
Easter Sunday, according to st. Mark,

1t was thus in the early dawn of
Easter Sunday that some holy women
came to the tomb with spices and per-
fumes to embalm the body of the
dead Christ Nearing the place of
burial, these loving souls were startl-
ed by the dazzling apparation of an
angel. And then they heard for the
first time the glad tidings that the
Savior was indeed truly risen from
the dead.

FLYING TO EUROPE.

The Waramaker flying machine, in
which Lieutenant Porte will attempt
to cross the Atlantic for the London
Daily Mails prize of $4,000, is near
ing completion, and will soon be ship
ped to Newfoundland. Whence the
start will be made. Ten years ago
the world was laughing at Langley for
seeking to demonstrate that man could
fly, and the Wrights We're called liars
for asserting that they had done it.
Within a month two men will fly out
over the Atlantic. and, If fortune ia
vors them, they will alight upon the
European coast. In the meantime
dreds Of miles, have assembled several
miles into the air. have swooped and
dived and turned somersaults. and
have made of flying the commonplace
that it is today.
q Porte and six friends gave the new
machine a trial trip the other day. and
the aeroplane few carrying a weight
close to 1900 pounds, which is but a
little less than will be required for the
Atlantic trip. The fight was an expert
mental n for the purpose of ascer-
tanning what changes would be need
ed in order to make her complete. The
enterprise is a serious one. and those
who have undertaken it mean bust
ness.
In spite Of all the precautions which
can be taken, there is an unlimited
number of things which ma happen
to bring destruction to the America
and death to her occupants. Light
ming nay strike her. a tornado MAJ
twist her to pieces, a break in her ma
chinery may disable her permanently.
and so forth. Against the violence of
the elements there can be little pro-
lection. and the operators will have
to take their chances. The machinery
and equipment is being made as near
ly perfect as men can make it. so as
to eliminate most Of the tendency to
accident there. To a mar on the
ground it seems as if, barring the
wrecking Of the machine while in the
air. the chief danger lies in the posi-
BILE necessity of descending for slight
repairs in rough weather. The ma
chine will float, but it seems clear
that she cannot float long on rough
water and ever fly again. The tons
Of water falling upon her from one
breaking wave would crumple her
planes like paper, and then, goodbye
to further flight. However, the men
who are to travel in her have figured
the risk and will make the attempt.
