LITTLE JACK HALL
CALLED BY DEATH
BELOVED CHILD FOLDS HIS
HANDS AND PASSES TO
ETERNAL REST

A telegram last evening was re-
ceiyed by Al A. Frevert from San
Diego. bearing the sad tidings of the
death of HUMPHREYS John Hall, Jr.,
the eight year old son of Mr. and
Mrs. II. j. Hall. The cause of the
death was diphtheria. Receipt of this
distressing tidings caused sorrow to
prevail in many a household, as a
large number of Tonopah families
have accepted the hospitality of the
Halls in southern California in their
beautiful home there, while the boy
was so well loved here in his in
fancy, he having resided in Tonopah
until four years ago.
News of the death was a shock as
well as a sorrow, as no. one here
had been informed of his illness,
which was brief. Mans kilograms OF
coincidence have been sent to the be
reaved parents from Tonopah, in their
hour of deepest sorrow, The boy was
aged eight years. He was born at
San Jose, California, and was a bright
and loveable lad. He was the hope
and pride of his loving parents and
beloved by his schoolmates in San
Diego and by all who remember him
in Tonopah Mr.. Freyert LEFT this
morning on the southbound train to
attend the funeral and extend his
sympathies to the bereayed parents.
Many friends of the parents in Tono-
pah desire through the Bonanza to
extend their condolences

WILL cREMATE OVER 1000
COYOTE AND WILDCAT SCAlPS

This is the time Of the year when
the scalps Of all noXious animals
are being turned into the offices OF
the different counties to secure the
bounties paid by the state and up
to the present time Elko has over
1000 scalps lying in the basement OF
the court house waiting to be burn
ed, says the Free Press The law
directs that the officials must des-
troy the scalps by burning and
since the installation of the oil
burners in the court house furnace
there has been no way OF burning
the scalps and they have accumu-
lated. The bulk of the scalps are
coyote, with few wildcat. As
there is still over a month before
the commissioner began payment on
scalp bounties it is believed that
several thousand more will be added
to this pile.

GRANDMA COMPANY IS
PLANNING RESUMPTION
CAPITALIZATION WILL BE IN
CREASED AND CORPORATION
PLACED ON ASSESSMENT
BASIS


GOLDFIELD, Nevada, Dec. 3.-The
Grandma Mining company is well on
the road to reorganization and re-
sumption. The new board of direc-
tors has shaped the plan for sub
mission to stockholders at special
meeting called for December 29th.
when it is proposed to increase the
capital from $1.5OO,000 to $4,000, 900
and place the company on an assess
able basis. The reason for this in
crease is the necessity for providing
working capital with the intention of
absorbing a claim lying directly in
the strike Of the ore from Kewanas.
The name of the claim has not been
mentioned but President Sprague. Of
the Grandma, says there will be no
difficulty on that score as arrange
ments have been practically settled to
the mutual satisfaction of all inter
ests. The directors have had several
propositions under adyisement but
they decided on accepting the one that
appealed to them as the one promis-
ing extension of known ore bodies.
Stock in the new Grandma company
will be exchanged share for share.
BY the first of the year Grandma will
be in full swing. Work viii be con

Rome. April II, via Paris-The
presence in Rome Of Gabriel Hano-

France and a member of the French
academy, is causing much comment
here. He has had audiences with Pope
Benedict and Papal Secretary of State
Gasparri and subsequently NJ. Hano-

A feeling exists in Rome that nego-
tions. perhaps totally unofficial, are
proceeding with the object of bring

France and the Holy See. which is
considered more than necessary as
Russia's successes increase.
Through France. the Vatican. it is
understood, hopes to bring influence
to bear on Russia in connection with

kther question which has attracted

would claim possession of the Holy

PRIVATE DISCUSSION
OF PEACE AT THE HAGUE.
Programme Drafted for Action in Vari-
Gus Countries.

The Hague, via London. April IL,
lilo p. m-For three days there has
been a private discussion of peace here
by a conference consisting of about 30
delegates from the United States, Hol-
land, Germany, Austria Hungary, Swe-
den, Norway, England, Belgium and
Switzerland. Mrs. Fanny Andrews of
Boston was the American delegate.
The conference ended today with the
drafting Of a programme for action
in the various countries. Only a short
record Of the work of the conference
has been issued as follows:
1.-The object of the meeting was not
to suggest steps to bring the war to
an end, but to consider by what prin-
cip1es the future peace of the world
would best be guaranteed. After a full
discussion a minimum programme was
unanimously adopted.
The action to be initiated in the
different countries will ultimately be
supplemented by an international pro-
paganda. A central committee for a
durable peace has been created as a
link between the national organiza-
tions. The committee of the Dutch
anti-war council, supplemented by
members from other countries, will
serve as the executive"
