spells a short distance from where
the body was found. Recovering he

with his pick in his hand, had turned
to leave, when death overlook him,

established that he died before he fell
into the water.

county, July 81, 1880 and was the
son of Mr. and Mrs. Theo Hawkins of

terv. at the foot of the mountains that
he loved so we'll.

FOLLIES OF CRIME At
MlNDEN THEATER

The Folly of Life of Crime, which
now being shown TO tn American
public is causing more discussion
than any other photo play. For
spectacular originality, for scenes of
daring, for exploits showing the
hardihood of Western pioneers, there
has been offerd nothing to compare
with ii. In succession of scenes
II depicts with intense yiyidness the
lives and experiences of one of the
most famous gangs of train robbers
and law breakers that helped in the
early days, to give the Pacific coast
most undesirable need of fame.
Throughout the story the lesson is
borne to the spectator that this dis
play of daring and self denial has but
one result when pitted against the
forces of law and order, and in the
end we are shown the final outcome
which landed the gang-one in an
outlaws graye-and the other in
States Prison. With wonderful fide-
ity the camera has caught the action
of the story, and reflected the marvel
GUS scenery of California-the un-
riYalled vistas of mountains and val
leys. of rivers and streams, and the
picture HAS Deen put together With
such mastery of genius that there is
not one moment when the spectators
interest is allowed to flag The his
toric value of this picture lies in the
depletion of pioneer days in Cali
fornia, the conditions that met those
hardy men and women who were
settling up this vast and beautiful
region, and the memory of whose
daring and self denial is becoming
swiftly but a shadowy memory.
This wonderful feature story in six
reels will be shown at the Minden
theatre tomorrow evening, November
18th and you should not miss it.

rAE EssENoE OF NgUTRALITY
(By David Starr Jordan) ancellor, Leland Stanford Junior
 University
 (St Iouis StarO

(St. Louis Star.)
 A neutral nation is one which in the crisis of war-which is the denial of law-rembins law-abiding A na- tion remains neutral in its own inter- est. not for the accommodation of belligerents. It has the right to de- fine it's own neutrality and no bel ligerent has the right to call this definition into question. To attempt to do so is. in a degree, an unfriendly act. Belligerents have no rights that neutrals are bound to respect. The very act of wyar implies the repud- lation of law. War has no justifica- tion except in case of demense from military and therefore lawless at tack. The neutral nation has not been thus attacked and her neutral ity is adopted as safeguard against it.
 But the neutrality of a nation af- fleets only it's overt official acts. It does not control the sympathies nor the opinions nor the acts of its citi- zens so long as these lead to no im- mediate breach of International law.
 In the great war it is a belief of a vast majority of the people of the United States that the nation should be strictly neutral, that, is, rigidly law.abiding.
 This does not mean that you or l should be indifferent to current events or ignorant of them. Nor does 1t bind you or me to active or passive of sympathy as between gov ernment and government or between people and people.
 Our sympathies naturally flow out 10 all the suffering peoples, but we should stultify ourselves five did not nave very definite-eyen partisan opinions concerning acts of govern. nent for which the people concerned nave the most remote if indeed any responsibility
 It is our privilege to think what we yill and to say what we think as to he origin of the war, the methods by which 1t is carried on the motives which shall prevail in bringing obout
 final settlement
