much destruction of roads and in
many cases intimidation has been re.

ceeded to the hills in lorries to in
yestigate reports of firing They
found 20 armed men, some of whom,
after firing at the military, mingled
with women and children who we're
picnicking, for which reason the
crown forces refrained from using
machine guns. They pursued others,
however, and shot two, The re-
mainder set fire to shrubbery on the
hillside and escaped in the smoke

RICH PLACER
DISCOVERY At
johnnie MINE

One of the richest gold placer dis
coveries in years was recently made
between the town of Johnnie and the
Johnnie mine. The discoverer was
Robert Wedekind, of the Reno Wei
dekin mine and his associate, Frank
Buol. The discovery was kept Sc
cret and became known by the act
Of kindness and brotherly love of a
Ford owner. During the return trip
Of Ambrose Murphy and Edward
Bahten, better known as the Fur
mace Creek Kid" both of whom had
been in the Death Valley region for
10 days, they stopped at Johnnie.
Buol and Wedekind had a car but
could not make it work, and Muir
ply volunteered his services and
knowledge which resulted in the car
being tuIed up and put in running
condition, This so pleased the dis
coverers of the placer gold that they
made it known to Murphy and the
Furnace Creek Kid, and they, with
tho discoverers, visited the location
and after panning coarse nugget gold
from the bedrock which is IA inches
from the surface. they made two
placer locations. The gold is very
coarse, some nuggets being the size
of beans and marbles The discoV-
erers estimate that their shallow
workings will average from $50 to
SIS per yard There is some water
at the Johnnie mine and an abund-
ance of artesian water is to be had
two miles below the town of John
ie The discovery is in Nye county
near the state line. Mr. Murphy and
Mrs. Bahten will leave tomorrow or
next day to prospect their claims
which adjoin the original discovery
The Johnnie gold quartz property has
been worked for years, and this is
I the first time placer gold has been
found in that locality Considerable
excitement prevails over the new
find and the stampede for the new
diggings is on.

MAY YET SAVE
SIGHT Of MISS
GALLAGHER

Word comes from Jerome. Arizona,
stating that the physicians attending
Miss Lucille Gallagher, the Yering-
ION girl who was attacked by an en-
ragged woman in a Jerome cafe on
thursday morning using as her wea-
pom a tumblerful of carboliC acid. say
there is every probability now that

lagher apparently is suffering more
from burns on her face, neck and
chest than from injury to her eyes.
Miss Elsie Humphreys, the Reno girl
who is with her, is the only person
except physicians and hospital at
tendants permitted to visit her. Miss
Gallagher's mother was expected to
reach Jerome from Yerington Sun
day.
Public indignation continues to run
high in that community, and unless
it abates, Mrs. Hopkins will not be
taken to Jerome for her arraignment,
officials say She is in the Yavapai
county jail at Prescott and has
eyinced a desire to talk about her
alleged troubles with her husband, Of
whom she is insanely jealous,
J. NJ. Ellis, formerly master me-
chanic at the MacNamara, but now
holding a similar position at the
Green Monster Mining company at
Jerome, writes the Bonanza that ex-
citement is at fever heat in that
city over the cowardly attack upon
Miss Gallagher The Nevada boys
were getting together to see that
Mrs. Hopkins is given just punish
ment for her unwarranted crime The
women of Jerome gathered in crowds
and freely talked of hanging the
Hopkins woman, who was secretly
spirited out of the Jerome Jail and
taken to Prescott for safe keeping.
The people of Jerome are clamoring
for the life of the earbolic acid
thrower and the authorities say she
will not be returned to that place
for her preliminary examination, as
they could not safeguard her life on
account of the women population
crying we will give her the moose vi
If Mrs Hopkins is returned to Je
rome, a detachment Of troops will
have to guard the cowardly woman.
