JEFF HOWARD DRAGGED TO
DEATH BY RUNAWAY HORSE

Thursday evening JEFF Howard met
with an accident that cost him his
life. He had been over to the Happy
Creek station, riding horseback, and
had nearly reached his home, which is
situated 10 miles above Quinn river
crossing, when the horse became
frightened and jumped. Howard was
thrown off, but his foot caught in the
stirrup and he was dragged to the
ranch
Medical aid was summoned from
Winemucea and it was deemed advis
able to bring him to the county hospi-
tai. He was brought in yesterday by
his physician and his brother Lester
Howard, arriving last evening. While
being taken off the elevator at the
hospital, it was discovered that he
was dead.
While being dragged along the road
deceased was badly kicked by the
horse and it is considered probable
that he died from internal injuries.
Deceased was a native of this
county, 80 years of age. The remains
will be taken to his home tomorrow,
where the funeral will be held Mon
day.

Pt0PLES' GAS COMPANY
BUYS LAND FOR PLANT

The Peoples Gas company has pur-
chased a plot of ground, 22O by $50
feet, facing the Southern Pacific rail
road, adjoining the Pasquafs ground
now occupied by the Verdi Lumber
company.
One Of the very noteworthy and
commendable features associated with
the enterprise is the request from out
side investors for allotment of stock.
Stronger still is the guaranty of con
fdence and full assurance of the prof
liable advantages associated with the
installation of the plant and the fact
that DeLaitte, the inventor of the
process to be installed, has offered to
take large block of stock of the
Peoples Gas company of WinnemGeca
as desirable investment, instead of
cash, for machines and materials ne
cesary in the installation of a work
ing plant.
The plant will be under the diree
tion of the master inventor of the
process, capable of producing the
best high-class gas for all domestic
and business uses.
The system to be installed in Win
nemueca is simple but of an efficiency
never attained prior to the DeLsitte
system, now so largely proven and in
use in France and Germany. It's util-
ity is so completely demonstrated and
its superiority proven where estab-
lished as to make it a premium ad-
vantage wherever applied
The local officers are arranging for
the details essential to pushing the
work and for a finished service to sup
ply the wants of Winnemueca and
surroundings
