Vlaha Zurich Killed
In Fall From Wagon

Vlaha Zurich, an Austrian, about
"a years of age, fell from a freight
wagon eight miles south of the Noun
tain House, Monday and was instant
ly killed
The unfortunate young man had
spent the past few months In the
Goldheld district on prospecting
trip and was returning to Gardner
vile. At Bridgeport he asked Wash
Brandon for a ride to this place on
his freighting outfit and was granted
the request. Everything went we'll
until coming out of the Hoye canyon.
On steep pitch one wagon was
dropped and later when the team
was started up Gurich was missed.
Brandon's swamper went back and
found Zurich lying beside the road,
his arms were quiyering and after
gasping a couple of time for breath,
fell back dead. Word was sent to
Wellington for help and at the same
time Coroner Krummes was notified
of the accident
Wash Brandon or his swamper did
not see Gurich fall to his death but
they believe he had climbed to the
top of the high load of wool and when
the team started up, the sudden jerk
threw him to the ground.
c. w. Brown, H. Maytell, G. A.
Parker. J. P. Aldaz, VIM. Kruse, Fred
Way and Simon Krummes composed
the coroners jury and after investi-
eating the circumstances, rendered a
verdict that Vlaha Zurich came to
his death from broken neck, caused
by fall from a freight wagon.
The young man has two brothers
and an uncle living at San Fracisco.
John Racha, owner of Kane's Cafe at
Reno, is married to a niece of the
young man and he arrived here We'd
nesday and arranged for the funeral
which took place Wednesday after
noon at this place.
The deceased had spent some time
in this vicinity and was quite well
known here.

Booster Club Mass
Meeting Tonight

There Is no community so well to
do, so self-sufficient, that II can af-
ford In these latter days to do without
an organization of some kind whose
design Is the betterment of the COM
mon interests, the upbuilding of its
hopes and the protection of its rights
In every section where there have
been great strides forward il has been
traced to the cooperation of the peo-
pie, the individual working for the
masses and the concerted action of
the many for the generl veal There
is not section within the West which
has greater natural advantages than
our home district but we are not i'm
proving the golden hours and many
ere passing away into time which can
never be recovered. In the years TO
come We can look back upon the
misty years and realize our wasteful-
ness OF our opportunities and today
We can stop the waste by action.
This evening the people of this
section are invited to meet In mass
meeting at Nalhalla Hall to discuss
the formation of civic organization
which will have for its main and
only purpose. the upbuilding of our
section, the making better of our
home land. the wiping away of those
things which tend to handicap our
progress and make smooth the path
way OF better times and better things.
This is not to be the gathering of a
few individuals To place before you
their fayorite hobby with an invita-
ton 10 climb aboard and ride but the
assembling of the men and the women
who look for greater and better
Carson Valley; the Increasing of our
business opportunities the welding to-
sether Of the Valley into solid unit
whose advancement cannot be stayed
and whose inatre cannot be dimmed.
1t Is hohed that every person-male
OF femala-who believes in the future
OF the Valley be present and will
lend his or her ideas To the enactment
OF an organization which during the
many years 10 come will prove TO be
OF inestimable advantage to the dis
trict.
There Is an old maxim OF in
Union There Is Strength" and time has
told the truth of the aphorsm. One
cannot accomplish much for the benc-
ut OF community but let the COM
munity Join together as one and there
IS nothing which cannot be accomp-
lished. II matter not what the as
. sociation be called. In some sections
they have their Boards OF Trade, their
COOPERATIVE Associations. their Com
mereial Clubs, all working for the
same point and where thes organiZa-
tions are using their influence and do
ing their eood works. YOU see hap

sPECrAOU1.AR cR1MB

The death In Missouri of Frank James. who though never convicted of crime was reputed to be g member of the Famous James gang Of outlaws. who were charged years ago with so many desperate acts. raises the oues- ton whether the big bank and train robberies of 30 years ago are as com mon as today.
 As a whole crime seems decidedly on the increase. But the big crime acts of a. generation ago, which so Hired the imagination of the outlaw class, may be too daring for the mod ern sneak burglar and foot pad.
 Bank robbery can not be as profit able as it used to be. Electric and steel protection has made large banks impregnable. Here and there a small country bank. might be ripped open. But the returns would not be suffi- fient for the risk.
 A highly explosive state of society pervaded many sections at the time the James gang were active. Gun toting was general. The guns were not carried for ornament. but for real use. Ce1erity in pulling them and ac- curacy in using them was an essential e1ement,fin a gentleman's education
