Carl Stenius whose return to Sin rock has been delayed by the storm says that in no other year has he seen so many beach miners, natives this year joining in great numbers the crowds trying to extract the elusive from the beach sands. Some of them are doing well but most just eke out an existence.

proud of this? Mr.. Wilson

TELL
OF TURKISH ATROC|ES

NEW YORK, Feb. I7.-Mrs. Paul
Shimmon told a terrible story of Turk
ish atrocities in western Persia here
today. With her husband, a Columbia
University graduate though Syrian
born, and two of her three children,
she recently escaped from Urmi,
northwestern Persia.
Holding in her hand a photograph
of bank of Kurds, she pointed out
different faces.
81 know that fellow" she said, in
dicating one fierce bearded Turk on a
great horse. HE seized a woman in
a village where I was. near Tilflis, and
carried her away. And that one"
pointing out another 81 saw him shoot
down man, first stripping him naked
THE villages are plundered, every
thing gone. The people go from the
villages into Tiflis. where there are
now so many that they do not lie
down TO sleep. / myself was sick five
weeks with typhoid fever in a room
where there were five others--a little
room. We sit all day and all night
Tor there are no beds for us. And
hungry-always hungry-no food"
"All are starving" said Mr.. Shim-
mon. Eighty thousand are now de-
stitute in northwestern Persia. / went
into the villages and saw these things
with my own Dyes. Not a COW, not an
animal of any kind left to the people.
Doors wrenched from their frames.
Grain food of all kinds-all taken.
And the people mad with lear. Yes,
many have gone mad. Women carried
away by the Turks. Can you wonder
that the people flock to the towns.
where there Is more safety, even
though they must starve and remain
huddled together under the worst pos
sible conditions?
Il have come to ask help. But for
America they would all be dead now,
my people. American money has fed
them. and the American flag is the
only thing that the Turks fear"

The benefit Of such action by the

The removal Of these unslshtly struc.
lures from the heart OF town would
add inestimably to its beauty and
property values on both sides of the
street would be greatly increased. as
1t would extend the business district.
At present. no one wants to build. or
conduct business, facing these ware
houses and hemmed in by them.

The visit yesterday of Superintend-

the town of Elko. Among other mat
tiers discussed with local merchants
was the petition filed at the last meet
ing of the Board of County Commits
sioners for the opening up of Sixth
street across the S. P. right.of-way.
The officials expressed a desire to
meet the wishes of the citizens in the
matter and prospects are bright for
i'm amicable adjustment of the situa-
ton, and one which will be big bene-
fit to the town.
1t was explained that pending the
adjustment of the suit brought by the
Federal Government under the Sher-
man act, for a dissolution of the
Southern Pacific and the Central Pa
cific railroads. that the company de-
sired the matter to lie in allegiance,
but when the suit shall have been
finally settled, which is hoped for at
an early date, that action will be
taken.
