The readers of this paper will be
pleased to learn that there is at least
one dreaded disease that science has
been able to cure in all its stages, and
that is Catarrh. Halls Catarrh Cure
is the only positive cure now known to
the medical fraternity. Catarrh being
q constitutional disease, requires con-
stitutional treatment. Halls Catarrh
Cure is taken internally, acting directly
upon the blood and mucous surfaces Of
the system, thereby destroying the
foundation of the disease, and giving
the patient strength by building up the
constitution and assisting nature in do
ing it's work. The proprietors have SO
much faith in its curative powers that
they offer One Hundred Dollars for
any case that it fails to cure, Send TO

with Thornton on the first trip to
Georgia, but when he came back
the second time that she did.
With several other minor wit
nesses, the government closed its
case.
The defense opened its case by
placing Thornton IN the stand.
Thornton told his story, that he
had been hired by Mr.. Norrell,
father of the girl to take her to
Georgia to visit her sister, and that
he had done so, but had not had
relations with her when he went to
Georgia on July 4th upon invita-
ton of Gunter, brother-in-law of
Miss Norrell, and that after a fish
trip he started home. Miss Norrell
was going to leave at the same
time, she was coming back to Able
vile, and that he was going to
Athens, to hunt work. He stated
that he was subject to rheumatism
and that while he was taken and
that Miss Norrell went to the hotel
with him, and that in the excite
ment of his sickness, she missed
her train, then decided to remain
over night. He testified that he
was so sick for two days that he
could not leave the hotel. He ad-
mited having improper relations
with the woman at this time and at
times previous, but denied that he
had any understandings with her
except that her father had hired
him to take her to her sisters for a
visit.

Natures May
Day Festival

On last Friday evening the gradu-
ating class of the Due West High
school gave "a pageant, assisted by
the school. It was put down on the
program as: Mother Natures May
ay Festival" Every pupil in the
school had some part in the play. 1t
took two hours to 60 through with
tn exercises. It was given in Ers-
kline Auditorium. A very large audi
ence was present. 1t was compiled,
and directed by Miss Frances Wide
man, the principal of the school,
assisted by Misses Wardlaw, Ed
wards, Addison, Scoggins and Mrs.
Mamie Pressly, the teachers. Mrs.
S. A. Tinker and Misses Isabel
Reid and Janet Magill were accom-
panists.
1t had evidently taken much time
and patience and thought on the
part of the principal and teachers
and work on the part of the pupils
to get up this pageant. The whole
play was carried through with the

utmost precision and proficiency.
Each month in the year was repre-
sented by appropriate costumes on
the part of the pupils representing
those months.
It was fine exercise through
out and much enjoyed by everyone
present. DIR. ]. l. Mccain was down
on the program fol- an address, but
was unwell and not able to be pres
ent. Rev. James Pressly took his
place, at the last moment, making a
short and appropriate address.
Miss Wideman read the honor
roll, making closing remarks and
then delivered the diplomas to the
graduating class. The closing year
is one of the most successful the
school has enjoyed. All teachers

An unusual case was heard this
morning in the federal court, un-
usual for the fact that Mrs. Forrest
Householder, a very pretty young
woman, appeared as one of the
principal witnesses for the govern
ment in the case against her father
C. n. Thornton, charged with the
violation of the Mann White Slave
act.
The case was a complex and un-
usual one, and a brief resume OF
the testimony offered by witnesses
for the government showed in part
that C. N. Thornton had taken a
yoang white woman to- Conner, Ca,
by automobile, going from Abbe>
vile, S. C. The government charged
he had done so for immoral pur-
poses.
Mrs. Lanura Porterfield, of
Conner, Ca, testified that she was
operating the hotel at Conner, and
that the defendant and the woman
in the case had come to her hotel
and stayed there three days and
nights, passing as man and WIFE
She declared that they occupied the
same room and that there was but
one bed in the room.
Mrs. Forrest Householder, daugh-
ter of Mr.. Thornton, testified that
she had heard talk of improper re-
lations between her father and the
woman in the case, and that she
knew they had had immoral rela-
tions for a period of several years
She testified that she had heard
that they had gone to Conner, Ca
together and that she went there
and caused their arrest.
Maggie Norrell, testified that
Thornton had taken her to Conner
Ca, and that he had come back
about a month later, they going to
the hotel and living there for three
days as man and wife. She testified
that she had been having improper
relations with 'A.4ornton since she
was II years old, (about 3 year:
ago), and that she did not know he
was married until later. She testl
fled that he promised to take he'
to Georgia, and that he would get {
divorce and marry her. She testl
fled that she did not have relation:

Editor Carson City News: They
were three little boys, Eddie, Willie
and Aleck Rosetti, born, raised and
educated in Virginia City. There
were three gangs on the lode-the
Hale & Norcross, the Ophir and the
Andes gangs-and they were some
fierce. Eddie and Willie belonged to
the Hale & Norcross bunch. In 1886
l went to Hawthorne to report a
mining case ALI Mccarthy was then,
and still is. running the Walker Lake
Bulletin. He asked me to send him
a devil" to roll for the press, and
learn to stick" type, ETC., and on my
return to Virginia City, l sent him
Willie. The boy could not have got
ten a better teacher, for ALI, to be
candid, did not like to stick" all the
type, and he preferred teaching.
Willie stayed about two years and
left. He Is now the business mana
ger of all the Hearst publications.
Eddie stands very high in the Ameri-
can Express Company, which succeeds
Wells, Fargo & Company, by whom
he was employed since about 1890.
Aleck was a very reticent lad, and
never in company with boys. In vir-
ginia City he learned dressmaking-
picked 1t up. He is now a Jesuit
Priest, with a parish in the Eastern
States. Can you beat It?
