Fat Cattle Reported
in Demand on Coast

With the supply of strictly good
cattle dwindling, due to drying up
of feed in most sections of California,
there is keen demand for strictly
good cattle, according to Los knge-
les reports. On the other hand. sell
ers are experiencing some difficulty
in moving common and in-between
cattle and the trade generally looks
for these grades to work lower rather
than higher. 1t is believed that good
cattle will continue to advance.
Strictly good steers from Imperial
valley sold this week at the stock
yards at $7.40 to $3.50 a hundred,
with head buyers from the various
packing plants active bidders. Many
who are in close touch with the mar
ket look for top cattle to reach $7.75
or So within the next thirty days.

From modest undertaking,
which seemed at the time to be ade-
quate and in keeping with the times
the Fourth of July celebration plans
for Ely this year have expanded
gradually until they have taken on
pretentious proportions, assuring ons
of the most elaborate fetes of the
kind held in eastern Nevada within
the memory of the present genera
tion.
The meetings to further the move
ment have not been marked by Sun
day school harmony always, Some
unkind words have been said In the
meetings and banded back and forth
over details of the expansion, but
these differences have been over the
question of how strong Ely could go.
All wanted to go some, and some
more than others, but in the end in
each and every question at issue the
big-show advocates have won out and
the show will be of proportions ac-
cordingly.
1t was a question of money, and
when one side asked where it was to
come from the big-show advocates
invariably said, We'll get the
money" or 9TH put up another hun
dred,' or another fifty, and since the
moderate or keep-within-our-m
show advocates have held them to
their word on that particular point,
the money and the show are COM
mensurate and both are assured OF
being here.

| places, but the road will be continued
on the north side until in the vi
cinity of the first railway tunnel,
there meeting the old road where il
comes back to the north side again,
half a mile below the mine, yet hav-
ing a new and more direct route.
When it comes to the present
crossing above this railway tunnel the
grade crossing will be eliminated by
moving up the canyon short dis
tance to the crest OF the railway cut
and bridging it with an overhead
crossing of steel and concrete.
From that down to the underpass
now, though evened up, but instead
of crossing the track there by either
a viaduct or grade crossing a new
grade will be sliced out from the
wall of the canyon on the south side
of the track to the automobile camp
ground and there will be a surface
crossing at First street.
Mr.. Harrington carries with him
an elaborate set of blueprints show
ing every detail of the road from end
to end The same will be continued
through the city to the east limits
He conferred with County Commits
sioners Clark and Baird as to a few
details on rights of way on the Key
stone road and with Mayor Tamblyr
and the city councilmen on the paw
ing Of Aultman street. Calling upon
Arthur Smith of the Ely Securities
Company, he was advised that there
was to be no delay whatever as to
granting rights OF way for nominal
considerations in the extension of
Aultman street from the telephone
building to the railway crossing al
the cemetery.
so far as l know the Keystone
project will start quickly and the
paving of Aultman street shortly aft
erward," said Mr.. Harrington before
his departure.

Highwaf building in White Pine
county will take its real start after
the visit of Governor Scrugham, 1t
being his intention to remain in Ely
July and see that arrangements are
gotten into motion. His visit will
result in the state highway board
being spurred to action. This fact
was made plain during the visit this
week of Senator w. P. Harrington,
superintendent of employment, ad-
justments and public relations of tho
highway department and friend of
the Lincoln highway.
The first project to be given an
impetus by the governor will be that
between Keystone and Ely and it
will be a much larger and more i'm
portant undertaking than the public
generally has supposed.
The next one will be the paving
of Aultman street, which has been
delayed by right of way matters at
the lower end of town.
The Keystone-Ely road will be
practically new grade for the en-
tire way. 1t will draw out the ma
jority of the kinks and curves, and
most important of all it will have but
one grade crossing on the Nevada
Northern railway when completed,
and that will be right in town at the
intersection Of First street.
From Keystone to Lane City the
changes will be in the nature of
Strengthening, shortening and i'm
proving the gradients. The same
will occur from Lane City to the
Boston and Ely mine, remaining on
the north side of the railway One
track crossed in this section is a
spur, which is seldom used.
At the Boston and Ely new grade
will be made OH the north side of
the railway, instead of crossing the
track to the south side, as at pres
ent It will require a large amount
of heavy rock work and filling in

TWO DIVORCE SUITS PENDING

their house he would find some dam

woman claimed at her two trials that
he approached her bedroom window,
forced his way in and threw acid in
her face and over her clothes. She
used this as an excuse for killing
him, claiming it to have been JUS
tifiable homicide.
The state contended that Healy
entered by a back door, went to the
bedroom and sat talking to his wife,
who was in her night clothes. That
in the course of an encounter which
she provoked she shot him twice in
the back from close range. His
clothes were badly burned by the
shots and his body was found there
on the floor.
The case of the state was made
notable by reason of the railroad
men of the district aligning them
selves strongly for the prosecution
1t was said to be untactful at the
time, to say the least, to express an
opinion, the towns of Ely and East
Ely being somewhat divided over it.
George A. Whiteley was attorney
for the woman and made use of her
acid story. She showed many severe
burns, undoubtedly from acid. Many
persons who knew her believed her
story. She was an apprentice print
er and press feeder, working several
days each week for the Record and
Times. Her work was highly salts
factory.
The state contended that the acid
burns were self-infiicted.
The case against the woman was
dismissed on motion Of Mr.. Edwards
after the second jury had disagreed.

Myrick's wound was of character
which from her observations during
twenty years were largely fatal She
said Myrick was taken to Berkeley
upon his insistence but against her
advice. He claimed he was dying
here and that he must be placed un..
der the care of DIR. Buckell She
accompanied him and gave him the
same care on the train as in the

HUSBANDS JOIN

HUSBANDS JOIN
IN DIVORCE PLEA
Two husbands of Mrs Marie
Marguerite Doyle appeared in Judge
Johnson's court yesterday SO that
one of them, John c. Doyle, SS1
Golden Gate avenue, might obtain
annulment of his marriage.
The decree was granted after
William Henry Fletcher of Pitts
burg. Cal, had testified that h.
had not obtained a final desree OF
divorre from the present Mrs. Doyle
at the time of her marriaeg.
Doyle said that his wife, whom
he married March II at Redwood
City, had met him at the deathbed
of his friend, Thomas O Meara, one
of her former husbands. She had
represented to him, he said, that
she was divorced from one of her
husbands, named Healy, but tha+
she neglected to mention Fletcher
at all.
In his complaint Doyle had al
legged that his wife had told him
that she had killed man in a Ne
vada town and had been discharg-
ed after a jury twice had failed to
agree.
This clipping is from the San
Francisco Examiner of June 27 and
ellis later chapter in the stormy
life of Marie Healy, who was twice
tried in Ely for the murder of her
husband, Jim Healy, in Central Ely.

Mrs. Healy was being sued for a
divorce at the time, which suit she
was contesting. AS it happened, H.

CIVIL WAR VETERAN WILLS
GOLD TEETH TO THE POOR

SAN FRANCISCO, Cal.-Mi-
chael Cahill, a civil war veteran,
who died recently, wrote his last
will and testament in spirit OF
repentance and charity.
In concluding his will Cahill
said:
obedience to the divine law
in death may in part compensate
for disobedience in life"
Although his fortune was very
small he overlooked nothing in its
distribution.
ITO the poor" he said, Il wish
to give the gold in my teeth"
For himself he made but one
request, and that was that no en-
balming fluid be used on his
body. As authority for this he
referred to Ecclesiastics 1877.
Then shall the dust return to
the earth as it was and the spirit
to God who gave it."

PLANNING TO TALK
THROUGH THE EARTH
SCIENTISTS WILL INSTALL
DEEP WIRELESS SHAFTS
FOR RADIO MESSAGES.

Twenty years ago Camille Flamma-
rion, the noted French scientist, con-
ceived the idea OF boring a hole
through THE earth to borrow heat and
power from the furnace supposed to
be at the core. In making the an
nouncement to a startled world Flam-
marion explained that the labor could
be performed by soldiers.
Borrowing from Flammarion's pro-
phetic picture, science now intends to
broadcast radio through the center OF
the earth. Soon men will be at work
sinking shafts 5000 feet deep. Only a
few of these shafts will be necessary
according to Lee De Forest, noted
scientist and inventor, who suggests
digging down into the earth for bet
ter radio communication
Shaft-Sinling Expensive.
Messages sent through such shafts
could be relayed to other points not
so far apart on the two hemispheres
There would be enough wireless tow
ers to take care OF that task.
The wireless wells would be sunk
at few very important points on the
earth's surface between cities or com
municating points selected by an in
ternational body of experts.
The sinking of these shafts would
be the chief item OF expense, The
cost of shaft to open communica-
ton between New York City and a
spending point in China would
be about $1,000,000, it is estimated.
