INDIAN DOCTOR KILLED
WHEN HE LOSES THIRD CASE

When a Piute doctor loses his
third case he must die. He might
lust as well be prepared to meet his
Maker after his skill has failed him
for the third time. The third and
last time means the finish of the doc
tor, says the Tonopah Times. Henry
Kelly, chief OF the Tonopah fire de-
partment, returned from q brief va
cation at Wellington Friday evening.
While enjoying the simple life on a
ranch near the place Tuesday he re-
ceived word that an Indian had Just
been found dead on the Hanawalt
ranch, three miles away. The In
dams head had been literally beaten
off with a rock. Mr.. Kelly with 9TH
ers from the ranch, went to the place
where the body was found. II had
been placed in some underbrush with
an open suit case over Its head. As
ar as could be learned the Indian
had been killed last Saturday night.
From what Mr.. Kelly could gather
from other Indians in the vicinity,
the dead man had served his tribe
In the capacity of medicine man. He
had not had good luck with his pa
tents. Having lost two In a short
time he made a noble effort to save
his third patient. but in vain. He

II was not intended that he should
lay down his life without protest;
other Indian doctors had not willing
" sacrificed their lives when they
lost their third patient. But he knew
that his tribesemn knew that his
DAYS were numbered. He kept pretty
close to his tent after No. 3 had beer

ALARM CLOCK HAS
TERRIFYING EFFECT

A clock ticking In an innocent
looking suitcase has an OMNIBUS
sound. When the alarm on the same
clock goes off while 1t Is in the suit
case 1t has a terrifying effect. Sew
eral tailors In an establishment on
Second street will testify to this fact.
They we're made the brunt of a prac-
tical joke perpetrated by a friend
that nearly resulted In wrecking the
tailor shop.
The bomb explosion in San Fran
cisco gave the perpetrator his theme
and 1t worked nicely, according to
onlookers who saw the tailors In
shirt sleeves and suspenders hang
ing, emerge from the front and rear
doors of the establishment In a mad
scramble to place as much distance as
possible between them and their
work benches.
The friend of the tailors secured an
old sample case and filed 1t with
clothing samples. At the side OF the
samples he placed a perfectly good
clock with the alarm set to go on at
1880 O'Clock. At 11:25 he went in
the tailor shop, taking the suitcase
with him and asked II his suit had
been pressed. He placed the suit
case conspicuously on the floor and
forgot to take 1t on his way out. At
1890 O'Clock the alarm went off. 1t
rang loud and long and at 1881
o'clock the man went back for his
suit and could have taken the whole
shop. There was no one in sight and
the alarm was still ringing.--Reno
