Keen stopped his buggy and said l

buggy and ran towards them with
knife in his hand. Fearing that he
might cut him to death from behind

out of his own buggy and took across
the road into the tobacco patch ad-

cutting at his overcoat. The coat was
shown with rip down the middle

Keen made when he was cutting at

with him and threw his arms
around him, and that he reached
around under Keen's arm and shot
him in the back, and that as the
dead man turned his head he also
shot him in the head.

A PICTURE THAT WOMEN

A PICTURE THAT WOMEN
WILL TAKE THEIR MEN TO SEE
what Do Men Want?" the great
est screen sensation of the greatest
producer of motion pictures is es-
sentially woman's picture. It deals
with problem of American life we'll
known to millions and millions Of
women, and equally familiar to count
less judges In the divorce courts of
the country.
This great drama from the facile
pen of Lois Weber, producer of such
outstanding successes as Where Are
My Children" "Hypocrites" and
'.The Price of a Good Time," is a
piercing study of the things that
make for happiness in man. Down
through the ages woman's greatest
wish has been to bring happiness and
contentment to man. Today the COM
plexity of our social conditions de-
mands an even closer analysis of the
question What Do Men Want?"
It is believed that the movie-going
public who see this dynamic drama
of the quest for happiness, will agree
that Louis Weber has produced the
biggest picture in the history of the
motion picture industry. So say the
critics. Wilson Theatre next Monday

of breeding stock nearest approach

Those who attended the demon
stration school immeasurably profit
ed from the work of Professor
Scott and his visit to this district
will lend an impetus to the work
that was greatly needed.

COUPLE COME HERE FROM

A happy couple in the persons of
John L. Morrell and Mrs. Fanny
Burlington arrived here from Jor-

after forming the acquaintance of
County Clerk Davey, inveigled that
gentleman into favoring them with
a license that would permit the
twain to be joined as man and wife
The couple could have secured a
license at home, but it appears that
they had information that led them
to believe that a marriage license
issued by Clerk Davey has greater
mucilaginous qualities than the
licenses issued by an ordinary Ore
gon clerk and they resolved that
they would secure that which has
remarkably strong adhesive charac-
teristics. Hence, their trip here.

Contest Between McDermitt and
Local Rifle Teams Was Won by
the Gunmen of This Place
BY a Narrow Margin

The rifle clubs of McDermitt and
Winnemucca met on the Winnemucca
rifle range, three miles east of
town, in a strenuous and exciting
gun combat yesterday and the melee
was remarkably free of mortality
although there were times when it
promised to go down in history as
one of the most sanguinary contests
ever staged in this vicinity but, as
good luck would have it, every time
death seemed impossible to, be avert
ed the cows would lope beyond
range.
In the first contest, each partici-
pant firing twenty rounds at a
target 600 yards distant, the Nc
Dermitt team scored as follows: C.
Gebhart, 70; Dewy Shriner, SO;
Joe Lyons, 83; F. Gebhart, II;
Leonard Simpson, II; making a
total score of 372. While the Nc
Dermitt team was doing that the
Winnemucca boys, shooting alter
nately piled up score of 375,
beating the McDermitt gun guys
three points, Ed Bosch scoring 75;
]. d. Scott, 76, Tiffany Poulin, 90;
George Van Volkenburg, 80, and
Charles Gartiez, 50.
In the 200 yard contest the Nc
Dermitt team piled up a score of
424, Leonard Simpson making, Sc;
Dewey Shriner, 8S; Joe Lyons, 50;
and F. Gebhart, 76. At this range
the Winnemucca team got its second
eye-sight and the members made
total score of 443, beating the
McDermitt team 19 points, the team
members scoring as follows: Ed
Bosch, SO; j. D. Scott, Sc; Tiffany
Poulin, SO; George Van Volkenburg
SO, and Charles Gartiez, 80.
At the 600 yard range Tiffany
Poulin made the high score, 90
with Joe Lyons second with a score
of S3. In the 200 yard shoot
George Van Volkenburg was the
champion, with a score of SO
Charles Gartiez scoring second with
SO.
The McDermitt team took defeat
in a nice manner, but they indi
Gated that the results might have
been quite different if the match
had been held at McDermitt on theil
own range, as the trip here is quite
long one and as the roads are
bad, the journey was quite a strain
on the guns and it was felt that
the jolting over the roads probably
exhausted the force of the ammuni
ton, too.
AT any rate, it was conceded by
the victors that one lone match was
not fully decisive and they ac.
cepted the challenge for a return
match to be shot off at Nc
Dermitt, Thanksgiving day.

certain railroads with violations of

that the railroad companies have
been operating in this state with de-
fective equipment. This, Mr.. Spring
meyer said, was in response to an
"insistent public demand"
Information already has been
gathered, according to the United

these actions are not of a criminal
nature, the law provides 500 pen
