HORSE THIEF MUST
RETURN To NEVADA

The supreme court of Iowa has Or
dered Sam Buchanan, who is wanted
in Elko on the charge of grand lar
ceny, connected with the stealing OF
horses in Elko county, to be returned
to Nevada.
The stolen horses were clipped by
the sheriff and were found to bear the
brand of f. E. LutZ, Robert Steels
and Fl. A. Agee.
Quite a legal tangle resulted from
the Indictment found by the grand
jury. Bachman was indicted on the
charge of stealing a horse branded u
X. but on examination the horse was
found to be branded j. R. The case
was in court at Ottumwa all day and
for a time the sheriff was afraid that
he would lose in the habeas corpus
proceedings.-Carson News.

COLORED MAN Is
VICTIM OF JOKE

George. the colored shine at the
Mayer hotel barber shop, has always
been regarded as a pokey sort OF a
fellow, but he proved "Wednesday
that he has a burst of speed hard to
beat. In fact, George proved that ne
has both speed and endurance to
qualify as a Marathon runner.
Wednesday morning while Dr.
Hood was paying a visit to the barber
shop, Joe Taber .Depped into the for
mer's office and extracted a skeleton
from the dark recesses of a closet,
and he placed 1t in the doctors car
the hands grasping the steering
wheel.
A few minutes later George came
sauntering up the street and when
near the car he espied the skeleton
in the drivers seat. He stopped short,
threw up his hands, and in a husky
voice said Ghost" AS he turned he
was heard to say; Lord help dis
niger to IN.
All that was seen of him for the
next few minutes was a streak oil
black. He didn't run, he fairly flew.
Some time later he wandered back
to town, still several shades lighter
than usual He said he wasn't long in
going. but it took him several hours
to get back.
When the doctor emerged from the
barber shop he was surprised to see
the crowd around the machine. Joe
Taber was the most innocent looking
one in the crowd,-Elko 1ndepen-

MAN FoULLY MURDERED
IN LINCOLN COUNTY

The finding of the body OF II H.
Beckman. the Good Springs mining
man. in a ditch in the southern emu
OF the switchyards at Caliente WIN
his throat cut from ear to ear leaves
no doubt but that he was muroereo
for his money, says the Phoebe hec-
ord. Beckman left Phoebe on the
9th of March intending to go BACK
to Good Springs. 1t is believed ne
was killed sometime that night.
When he left Phoebe he was accom-
panied by a stenographer, who the
officers believe is the man who COM
mitted the crime, but no trace of the
fellow has been found. Sheriff Ron
now and District Attorney Orr ran
down several clews but without the
desired result. Beckman must have
been dead all of two weeks before
the body was found and was in a bad
state of decomposition when the dis
covery was reported to Deputy hex
Mathews and others at Caliente.

tain of it in centuries past, radium
may be produced in such quantities
that 1t will become a drug on the
market.
Dr West was more reticent In his
statements. He said, however, that
for several months past he has been
interested in the matter, and that he
was not surprisd when he received
information that the presence of ra-
dunn had actually been determined.
Radium has proven invaluable in
the treatment of various forms OIL
disease, among others the deadly can
Ger. II is the most powerful known
germicidal agency. and has greater
radio activity than any other known
substance.
The water of these springs has been
known for many years to contain GER
tain properties of curative powers
Many forms of disease have been
treated with it with remarkable re-
suits. 1t is possible that this is due
to the radio activity induced by the
presence of radium.
Further determinations are to be
conducted on a larger scale at once.
Several tons of the deposit will be
shipped. and reduction made by the
most scientific methods.

RADIUM DISCOVERED
AT HOT SPRINGS

What will probably prove to be the
most important discovery eyer MADE
in Elko county, If not in Nevada, has
been made by G. F. Kingery OF the
EIko Drug company and DR.. c. W.
West. says the Elko Independent.
They have definitely determined
hat the water from the hot springs
west of Elko contains radium, the
most valuable of minerals. From a
quantity of the sediment deposited by
the water a particle of radium has
been extracted. The substance Is the
most valuable of minerals, as 1t is
worth several hundred thousand dol
lars an ounce.
Experiments with the water and
the sediment which it holds in solu-
ton as ii comes from the ground,
have been in progress for several
months past. Early experiments
proved the sediment to be rich in
pitchblend and uranium salts. AS
further analysis requires special ap-
p~aratus, a quantity of the reduced
product was SEN to New York for
further analysis, and word has been
received of positive evidence of ra-
dunn.
Mr.. Kingery stated that while the
value of the discovery is as yet spec
ulative, that it might mean more
wealth than the combined output of
the mines of Alaska, the Rand and
the Comstock.
1t is only a few years ago that the
substance was first isolated in Aus
tria, and there is said to be less than
a pound in existence.
The discovery was made by merest
accident. In looking at the big pot
hole west of Elko last summer. DR..
West and Mr.. Kingery fell to discuss
ing its probable curative properties.
As deep %soundings have failed to de-
termine the depth of the water, 1t
was suggested that it might hold GER
ain radioactivity. and this gave the
suggestion of radium. Experiments
followed with the results stated
Mr.. Kingery further stated that
this discovery upsets completely
many of the theories regarding ra-
dunn. 1t is supposed to be subject
to decay, yet the particle secured was
obtained from a deposit of sediment
which had been exposed to the ele-
ments for an indefinite period. AS this
deposit is unlimited in quantity, the
water having piled up a small noun

were present and many thought the
poverty ball. as it was designated, the
most popular dance of the series. Many
of the dancers came in discarded gar
ments and some very bizarre effects were
produced. An orchestral concert was
followed imediately by dancing, to be
broken at an II O'Clock intermission
when number of the young women of
the club served refreshments of sand
witches, cake and coffee. Dancing con-
tinued thereafter until ! o'clock.
