chic hat intended for wear with
tailleur is a narrow-brimmed little
turban in felt somewhat on the al

CALIFORNIANS RAISE MONEY
FOR ROAD WORK IN NEVADA

Apparently the residents OF north
ern California are at last getting
action on their promise to raise a
large sum of money to assist in
the building of the Victory highway
through Nevada, principally. because
of the Importance to northern Cali
fornia of securing increased trans
continental auto tourist travel. A
recent issue of one of the San Fran.
cisco newspapers says:
Progress of the fund raising cam.
paign for the construction of the
Victory highway was reported on by
Harvey M. Toy at the Mutual Busi-
ness Club luncheon at the Palace
Hotel yesterday. He said that San
Francisco had raised $21 900 of its
$4,000 quota for the road
Throughout the state Toy declared
that only $4,000 remains to be
raised towards the 100000 mark.
Toy also discussed the proposed
revival of the Portola Festival, the
campaign to remove the rocks in
the entrance to the harbor, and
other movements in which he is
interested.

FARM BUREAU COMMUNITY
SUPPER WAS BIG SUCCESS

A rather surprising amount of
interest was manifested by the peo-
pie of Winnemucca in the COM
munity basket supper sponsored by
the Humboldt County Farm Bureau
and held in Winneva hall last Sat
urday night, largely due to the un-
firing efforts of the new president
of the organization, Mr.. M. C. East
man, who went to work to make the
occasion successful and accomplished
his task with glory and results to
spare.
A large number of farmers and
farmerettes were called upon to
express their views relative to the
proposition of how best to improve
conditions for the greatest number
and local business men also gave
their views. 1t cannot be that any
thing but good can come of the
occasion and it is readily under.
standable how great good may come
of the exchange of viewpoints.
A pleasing phase of the enter
tainment afforded was the COM
munity singing led by Mrs. L. G
Campbell, which was thoroughly en-.
joyed. Cards, more refreshments
and the solicitation of memberships
in the Farm Bureau rounded out
the evening.

RESTAURANT MAN
SUICIDE IN S. F.
John Lerri, Who Recently Conducted d
Elite Restaurant Here, Poisoned
Himself at San Francisco;
Estranged From Wife

Winnemuccans who knew John
Lerri, who conducted the Elite cafe
in this city during the last six
months, were surprised to read in
a San Francisco newspaper a few
days ago of his act of committing
suicide by taking poison. The coast
newspaper said:
"The body of J. J. Lerri, 35, be-
lieved to have taken poison, was
found yesterday in his room at the
Hotel Garfield, 354 O'Farrell street
A partly-flled bottle of poison and
a sealed letter addressed to Mrs. ].
J. Lerri, TIA Natoma street, were
found in the room.
"Lerri, who registered at the no
tel on December 4 from Winnie
mucca, Nevada, had not been seen
for two days. John Galuske, a por-
ter, broke into his room and dis
covered the body"
Lerri was known in Winnemucca
as hard worker, intent upon build
ing his restaurant to a good pay
ing business. No reason is known
for his act, unless it might be be-
cause of his recent estrangement
from his wife, who is understood
to be residing in Elko. 1t was Mrs.
Lerri who assisted him here by
waiting upon table. The letter men,
toned is presumed to be addressed
to Mr.. Lerri's mother.

.GOLCONDA sCRAPE
WAS DISASTROUS
Knife and Gun Figure in Grand Old
Fashioned Evening, With Two
Men Carrying the Marks
One Fined $40 in Court

District Attorney L. G. Wilson
and Sheriff Geo. w. Brady were
called to Golconda yesterday by a
report of a row that evidently re-
suited from night of gambling
and drinking INDUCED in by sev-
eral men there.
From the stories told at trials
held before Justice of the Peace
Roberts at Golconda yesterday
afternoon it appears that the first
trouble started between Eugene Mar
kett, an Indian, and "Tamale" Dick
Vannetta, at perhaps a o'clock in
the morning. Vannetta was charged
with having disturbed the peace by
hitting the Indian, causing a wound
in the jaw that may have been
either from the thrust of knife
or a blow from the fist. At the
trial Vannetta was fined $40.
Later on in the morning, as a
grande finale to the evenings en-
joyment, it developed at the trial,
Ed Knight and the same Indian,
Eugene Market, were struggling in
cabin for the possession of a
rifle. They claimed at the trial
that the scuffle was entirely friend
ly, but neighbors, fearing bad re-
suits, called upon E. r. Worthing-
ton, stranger, to go into the
room and stop the possible fight. He
started in, had his hand on the
knob of the door, in fact, when a
bullet from the rife met him. 1t
was not thought that the bullet
entered his body, but the physician
was of opinion that a piece of
brass from the door lock, which
was shattered by the shot, had en-
tered his side, with serious results
improbable. He is being cared for
at the Golconda hotel. Upon the
showing that the shot was acci-
dental the case was dismissed.

WORK PROGRESSING ON
HIGHWAY WEST OF CITY

Work of grading that stretch of
the Victory highway 12.99 miles
west of the city limits and to the
Pershing county line, under direc-
ton of Sub-Contractor Hammond,
is progressing steadily now, accord
ing to County Surveyor R. E. Til
den. 1t is not thought that it will
be possible to throw up and cut
all of the grade necessary before
frozen ground stops work, but it is
assured that the work will be con-
tinued as long as possible, that the
new grade may secure whatever
benefit arising from the packing ac-
complished by the winter moisture.
The road will be from the city
limits to point about three miles
west of Rose Creek, the road to
be "a feet wide, with Is feet of
gravel, six inches thick, in the
center. Approximately one-half q
mile has so far been graded. Near
Rose Creek there is to be an over
pass 22 feet over the railroad
tracks, thus eliminating all grade
crossings. The route will be shorter
in distance than the southern Pa
cific tracks.
Aside from the fair stretch of
road between this city east to Col
conda and thence to the Lander
county line, the completion of the
road to Rose Creek will leave only
eleven miles of bad roads between
Battle Mountain and Lovelock, and
this stretch W. H. Goodin of the
Overland Trail Club has promised
to keep well dragged. AS the road
from Lovelock to Reno is in fair
condition, travel next year should
be fairly comfortable for the tour
lists.

the enormous number of starving
cattle brought to this country from
Mexico to fatten in the corn
growing sections before slaughter.
Canada has also furnished large
number of cattle at cheap prices.

showing an inclination to carry the

ability, and the situation seems to
be one for time to remedy"

CATTLE SALES REPORTED
BRING JOYS TO GROWERS

Tom Dooley, well know rancher
and cattle grower of Paradise Val
ley, is in town today, having de-
livered 81 head of stock cattle to
Judge j. A. Callahan and Chas. Hill
Ter, for their ranch near Inlay. The
bunch consists of choice young cows
and calves. Mr.. Hitler assisted
Dooley in driving the cattle to this
city, arriving last night, and he will
continue driving them to the Perish
ing county ranch.
A deal involving 100 head of
beef steers was completed here
yesterday when Thos. Fallon, acting
for Miller & Lux, bought that herd
from the French Glen "P" ranch,
located in southeastern Oregon,
Manager Cravan acting for the
ranch company. The cattle are to
be shipped to California ranches
Of the Miller G. Lux company, from
this city next Friday, for fattening
and sale for slaughter. The price
paid was not given out for publica-
ton.
1t is also understood that some
thing over 800 head of cattle are to
be driven in from the Godchaux
ranch of the Union Land & Cattle
Company, to arrive here tomorrow
for shipment to the coast market.
These cattle come from the range
of the company at the Spanish
ranch in Elko county and were sent
to the Gadcheaux ranch some time
ago for fattening and rest. The
company has also purchased some
thing more than 400 head of cat
tie in northern Humboldt county
and southern Oregon, all of which
have been disposed of heretofore.
While the price obtainable for
cattle is not all that the raisers
could wish for, the sale seems to
be lively and may have a tendency
to strengthen the market later, At
least, that is the hope INDUCED by
men in close touch with the situa-
ton.

VETERAN HOTEL MAN HAS
PRAISE FOR NEW HOTEL

Chas. j. Sadlier, veteran hotel
manager of the Hotel Golden,
George Wingfeld's Reno hotel, was
here yesterday viewing progress on
the new Hotel Humboldt, to the end
that he may intelligently act in an
advisory capacity concerning certain
phases of the equiping of the hos
telry wherein his long years of
experience will be of value.
Il wish l had it in Reno" was
his expressive remark after touring
the floors of the new building.
"There will be nothing better any
where. Your new hotel will be
one that any city, many times
larger than Winnemucca, might
well be proud of. There is moth
ing omitted that goes to make up
the highest class hotel. 1t took a
long time to get it, but it is well
worth the wait.
"The addition to the Hotel Golden
in Reno" Mr.. Sadlier continued,
lis rapidly approaching completion,
and will be ready nearly as soon as
will the Humboldt. Work was started
on it this summer and is being
hastened because of Reno's need
for hotel accommodations. 1t will
be an addition of fifty rooms to
the Golden, all with baths. The
walls are now complete and work
men are putting on the roofing
paper"

The Silver State has been re-
quested to correct an erroneous i'm
preston, created by local publ
cation, relative to the basketball
game to be played here next Sat-
urday night between the Winnie
mucca town" team and the Battle
Mountain town" team.
The incorrect statement that the
Battle Mountain high school team is
also to play here next Saturday
night was grossly magnified, for
reasons not stated in the story deal
ing with the matter, set off with
large head lines in the first column
of the first page, in spite of the fact
that not many hours previous to
the hour of publication the local
publication had been favored with
an order for window placards def
nitely setting forth the attraction
of next Saturday night.
The Silver State would not have
readers believe that the offense
against truthfulness was at all seri-
Gus, because this editor is charit-
able enough to recognize that error
may creep into the daily work of
any man, no matter how important
he may be in his own estimation,
and this little piece is only written
in reprisal for similar "Small town
and small people" propaganda in
dulged by local publication yes
terday. Ordinarily we prefer to
observe the teachings of decent
newspaper ethics by permitting our
contemporary to rectify his own
mistakes before bringing them to
the attention of readers, particularly
in such an uncouth manner.
