MRS. BARRETT PASSES
FUNERAL HELD TODAY

At eleven o'clock Thursday night
Mrs. Olive Elizabeth Barrett depart
ed this life at her home five miles
south of Yerington. Her demise fol-
lowed years of illness, she being a
complete invalid for the year last
past. Her advanced age, SO years,
contributed largely to the gradual de-
cline in health. Funeral services will
be held at the family home this after
noon. Rev. Roissy officiating.
The late Mrs. Barrett located in
Mason Valley in 1879, and very few,
indeed, are the pioneers who are more
intimately associated with Mason Val
ley history than was she. Her hus-
band passed away twelve years ago.
The surviving members of the family
are c. H. Barrett and George Barrett,
Mrs. Sheldon of this community, and
Mrs. Mallett of Oregon.
During the long period of bed-rid-
den illness of deceased she was at
tended by the solicitations of many
friends ad acquaitances of long stand
ing. all of whom are inexpressibly
saddened by her departure, but con-
soled with the knowledge her bed OF
pain is replaced by final peaceful
sleep.
S. B. Ebert and c. A. Week who
have lease on the Yerington Consoli-
dated estate have encountered what
appears to be an extensive ore chute
from which they are taking IL per
cent ore. They loaded and shipped
this week two carloads to Salt Lake
for treatment.

FIRE RACED WHERE
THE WIND LISTETH

Tuesday was one strenuous day in
Yerington. One of those old-time
dust storms started in early, and by
nine o'clock a. m. everybody had a
crouch that would shame a grizzly
bear that had been rousted out of
berry patch By the middle Of the
forenoon everybody was wishing
something would happenu to distract
the mind.
1t did.
Like Josh Billings tight boots,
there is only one thing that can be
said in favor of grass fret causes
one to forget his other sorrows.
When the fire alarm was turned in
Tuesday forenoon there wasn't any
time to think about the wind and dust,
and all adjourned to the Indian village
southwest of town, where well de-
veloped grass fire was raging and sew
eral hundred rabbit carcasses were
baking to fancy turn. The display
of personal belongings of the Indians
was such as to make "Old Curiosity
Shop" immortalized by Dickens, look
like rent collector on national
holiday.
The fire department responded
promptly, and by use of all the hose
in town was able to get one stream
on the fire, which kept it in check, and
finally extinguished it. About the
time this fire was under control Sher-
if d. P. Randall was observed at the
intersection of Main and Bridge
streets performing gyrations that
would do for an ordinary bear dance.
With practically all the men at the In
dian village Dick was playing lone
hand in an attempt to give an alarm
for fire that had broken out in the
rear of a dwelling owned by 0. II.
Some, east of Main street, on Bridge.
For a time this fire looked serious. A
terrific gale was blowing. and 1t was
some time before the hose cart could
be brought up from the Indian village.
In the meantime the flames communi-

fire, and was working on the fire when
the hose cart came aroud the corner
and frightened his horse; the animal
took to his heels, and disappeared
down Nevada street in the smoke and
dust Mr.. Bertrand says the wagon
was badly smashed, but no one was
injured by the runaway.
The arrival of plenty OF help for
the bucket brigade was all that saved
us from a disastrous FIRE in the vicin-
ity of Bridge and Main streets, for it
required considerable time to take up
some of the hose and get up town
from the Indian village. But the sec
ond and third alarm brought out plen-
ty of help, with buckets.
The excitement was aided by
call from the Bovard place for help.

auto loads went out there, but the
flames were under control before they

By noon everybody had worked
themselves into a good humor, and al
