MURDERER Is FREE
ON $1,000 BAIL.

Judge Tabor convened court and
ordered the release of Frank Huber,
who was convicted of murder, for
which he was sentenced to a life
term in the ~penitentiary, subject to
the bail of $1,000, which bail was
furnished by three property owners,
Joseph Peck, T. e. Peck and Joseph
Paleni. says the Elko Free Press.
This is one of the few cases on rec
ord in the world where a man who
has peer convicted and sentenced Tor
murder Is ever released, and as the
Jail doors swung back and allowed
Frank Huber to walk forth into
the warm sunshine of the faultless
July day, it seemed as though the
vaults had given up the dead. For
to Frank Huber, from the time he
had heard Judge Tabor pronounce
the sentence i%mprisoning him for the
term of his natural life, he had had
no hope. So the return to the outer
world was to him a queer proceeding.
The Huber case. which had many
sensational features, had been watch
ed with the greatest interest through
out the state of Nevada, the sessions
had beer attended by throngs of peo-
pie, and the newspapers had been
filled with columns. Once the case
had been slowly and carefully fought
out in court and had been handed to
the jury. but they had disagreed,
seven being for acquittal and five for
conviction. At the second trial they
convicted Huber and he had started
to serve his term in the state peniten-
tiary, but had recently been granted
a new trial by the state supreme
court. Until he can have this new
trial, he is out on bail.
The main points of his case as was
shown by the evidence at the two
trials, are as follows:
Frank Huber and William Billings
had lived near one another near
Mountain City, Nevada. in 1913.
Huber had evidently owed Billings
1925 which Huber claims to have re-
paid. One afternoon. as Huber was
asleep in the bunk house. Billings
pulled Huber out of bed. whipped
him numerically and took Huber's
away from Huber and depart
ed with it. Later, evidence showed
that Billings and Huber had met, that
day, August 90. 1913, and Bill
lings had advanced t~hreateningly to-

ROVER HAS INDIGESTlON;
srARES MASTER; THEN SHOT.

Alone in his house with a raving
mad dog. This was the thrilling ex-
n~arienee of George Gilmore of Tusca-
rora Friday night. says the Elko in-
dependent. -
It was a narrow escape. 1t makes
the blood run cold to hear Gilmore
tell the story. Only by a seeming
mirical did Gilmore miss being bit
ten while he slept.
Mr.. Gilmore was in Elko, and told
Sheriff Harris of his haifbreath es-
cape. He was sleeping peacefully
Friday night when he was suddenly
awakened By the swapping of the
teeth of his dog. They came to-
gether like steel upon steel.
Gilmore knew what it meant. His
faithful watch dog Rover had gone
Mad. Without arising from his bed
he struck a match and liz the lamp on
the table.
In the next t66m Writhing in con-
WILSON'S on the fio0f and foaming at
the mouth was the suffering dog
The door between the two rooms was
open.
Gilmore was afraid to advance and
close this door lest the dog beat him
to it. lie jumped the other way for
an open clothes closet, dragging with
him a blanket. His thought was to
smother the dog if IL made for him
before he got into the closet.
And barely had he clsed the closet
door when he saw Rover leap upon
the bed where but a moment before
his master had been sleeping.
Gilmore from A narrow opening in
the door to the closet watched the
suffering animal. He tore the bed
clothes and bit the pillows. bowling
and frotiing.
In the closet where Gilmore had
taken refuge was a rifle but it had no
shells. In the next room where the
dog had slept IA a rifle already load
ed. but how was Gilmore to reach
this and get by the dog?
1t was the middle of the night. Gil
more did not have much idea what
time it was. 1t seemed as ii he were
freed in that closet for the rest of the
night. Gilmore could do nothing but
look out upon the raving animal.
Rover was a powerful animal. He
is a blue dog with white spots and
a half breed of some kind. Gilmore
thought the world of that dog.

wards Huber; Huber warned him
but Billings still advanced, so
Hnber shot Billings and killed him.
Huber had one trial, seven jury
men said not guilty, five said guilty
so the case was tried the second time.
This tine Huber was adjudged guilty
and sentenced for life.
The supreme cort ruled that Huber
should have another trial or the fol-
lowing thre points: First, the court
had thrown out all evidence which
vas introduced to prove that Billings
had always been quarrelsome; sec
end, the court had given the jury in
structions as to what the term "ag-
gressor" means, and had refused to
hear the defense argue why the jury
should moi be so instructed; third.
the court admitted evidence tending
to prove that Huber had owed Bill
lings, which the defense claimed had
nothing to do with the case, as II
Huber had owed the debt, he should
have had our to the courts to
get the money and not have taken
the law into his own hands to collect
1t. but the allowing of evidence to
show that Huber owed him tended TO
hurt Huber's case in the eyes of the
jury when il was not really a factor.

JUDGE ''F|TE SASSY
AT SUPREME COURT

ATLANTA, Ca, Oct. 1S-Justices Of
the supreme court decline to say
whether or not it is the intention OF
that tribunal to take any action in
reference to the published utterances
Of Judge W. A. Fite, in commenting on
the courts opinion overruling Judge
Fite in the famous Murray county
courthouse case.
Judge Fite was quoted as saying
that this was not the first case in
which he had been reversed by the
supreme court when he was right, and
further, that he was surprised only in
that the court had overruled hif in a
judgement he did not render. and did
not see at all the point in the judg
ment he did render.
1t had been reported that the SUI
preme court might apply to Judge Ffte
the same ruling that he had applied
to the Murray county commissioners
in his contempt order. but when mem
bers of the supreme bench were seen
tiday, they declined to make any
commit on the situation one way or
the other.
They declined to deny the foundation
CT the report, and expressed the pref
erence that they not be quoted even to
the extent of saying they had declin-
ed to make a statement, or that they
had been approached on the subject
at all. They would not say whether or
not that was because of the fact that
the case might come before them later
for judicial disposition. One of the
justices intimated, though, THAT if con-
tempt proceedings should be inaug-
urated it might have to come after
with the full bench.
