BLAMED FOR GIRLS DEATH
Moving Picture Comedian Is Formal.
 ly Accused of ManSlaughter.

San Francisco, Sept. 14.-The cor oners jury returned verdict today holding that Miss Virginia Rappe, motion picture actres, came to her death through peritonitis caused by the rupture of an internal organ. Ros- COG c. (Fatty) Arbuckle was held re- sponsible by the jury for Miss Rappe's injury and the district attor- ney was directed to conduct a full in vestigation of the matter. The yer dict charged Arbuckle with man. slaughter nd directed that all official sources concerned conduct full and conclusive investigation.
 The jury held that Miss Rappe came to her death through the applica- tion of force, which we believe from the evidence was applied by Roscoe c. Arbuckle and we hereby charge him with manslaughter. we recommend that the district attorney, chidf of police, Grand Jury and prohibition enforcement officers take steps to prevent further occur ence of Such events, so that San Francisco will not be made the ren- dezvous of the debauche and the gangster."
 The verdict in assigninfi the cause of Miss Rappe's death said:
 "We the coroner's jury. find that the said Virginia Rappe, aged %, sin gle, residence Los Angeles, came to her death on September g at the Wakefield sanitarium from rup- tured bladder, contributing cause, peritonitis.
 And we further find that said Vir- ginia Rappe came to her death from peritonitis, caused by a rupture of the urinary bladder caused by the application of some force which from the evidence submitted, was ap- piled by one Roscoe Arbuckle.
 We, therefore, charge that said Arbuckle with the crime of man. slaughter

The editor of the Mineral Springs Vim sees in the practice of Judge Steel in probating young criminals menace 10 the continued and complete sepa- sation of church and state, which IS essential to the progress of both. lie refers to defendants being sentenced to Sunday school by the court instead of being sentenced to the pefitentlary or reform school. Like a standpat Republican senator the able editor places his feet firmly on the grand old Constitution and declares that giving a confessed criminal the alter native of going to Sunday school or reform school or penitentiary means compulsory church attendance, and compulsory church attendance is violation of the spirit of the Consti- tuition of the United States, and dan- xerous precedent to set. It's shame to intrude with levity into this elo- auent constitutional editorial flight, but we can't help but suggest that had the good judge thought to have sent the young delinquents off to see Fatty Arbuckle's funny films instead of to T penal institution, at least the church and the state might have been saved, if not the boy We can understand how the judge fell into this greavous error. It was perhaps in his weak ness for wanting to make men out of boys rather than to make crlmln- als out of them. Reports from over the district have wonderfully vind1ca- ted this method of dealing with young boys who for the first time have fallen into bad ways, from standpoint Of genuine reform. Our heart is with him and we would like to rush to his defense, but our amazing ignorance of the spirit of the Constitution as re- Elected by the superior and intimate knowledge of the editor of the Vim forbids us. But the Vim editor IS most generous. He gives the court credit for acting with the highest mo- sfves in disposing Of young criminals in this way, and kindly, but firmly points out to him his sad error.

EGGS FROM GEESE IN WINTER
Good Plan tS Arrange So That 0oslinss Will Be Matched by Time
 There 10 Good Pasture.

Geese are fed ration to produce eggs during the latter 4art of the win- ter, so that the gotlings will be matched by either hens or geese. Some breeders prefer to raise all the gos- nngs under hens, as geese sometimes become difficult to manage when al- lowed to hatch and rear their young. The period of incubation of goose eggs varies from 28 to 30 days.

COUNCIL ACTION IS
CAUSING COMMENT

Our sister town of Winnemucca has
hit on a happy medium of dealing
with the soft drink parlor, those who
are foxy enough to get by without
detection and still dispense a drink
with a stick In it. At recent meet
Ing of the city council it was unani-
mously decided that hereafter when
any suspicion attached to any soft
drink place, whether there was any
evidence or not, the place should be
placed under $4,000 bonds to strictly
observe the law or have its license
repealed.
II would be wise il the city council
of Elko should adopt this plan. As
It is a soft drink parlor can even be
under such a strong suspicion as TO
be searched by both federal and state
officers, the owner, finally being ar
rested charged with having the goods
on sale, and still the place is allowed
to do business-and probably will
until public opinion gets so strong
that some action must be taken, as
has happened at Winnemucca.
We often hear that Elko is the
cleanest town in the state. And OF
the other hand we hear that Elkt
supports more wanton women thar
any town in the state of its size, ant
that liquor flows unrestricted Their
continuously. Some years ago publ
sentiment drove every redlight hous
out of Elko, and it begins to look a
if history would repeat itself.-Elk

Fish's Nest in a Clam Shell.

The goby (Of which there are many
kinds) selects the clean valve of a
clam and uses this as the ready y-made
nest. The pair (for the goby mates
with but one and is jealous of any
rivaD hover round an inverted valve
and then the male scoops out the sand
from underneath 1t, forming a cavity,
the shell being slightly tilted and
pressed into the sand. The female
then enters the cavity and deposits
her eggs on the lower (inner) surface
Of the shell. These eggs are some
what cigar-shaped structures, fixed at
one end by glutinous network that
secures them firmly to the shell. Hav-
ing done her work, the female then ex-
changes places with the male, who
remains on guard, keeping up q con-
slant current of water over the eggs
by movements of the pectoral fins,
and darting out at the approach Of an
intruder.
