BROWN SKIPS
OUT With AUTO

II. L. Brown, who acted as manager
of the Gardnerville branch of the
Skaggs stores, during its brief life,
has proved himself to be high finan-
cier and is now being hunted by the
officers to recover an automobile
which he bought on contract. 1t is
also said that he secured the good
graces of a Gardnerville man who ad-
vanced him tiny sum of money, the
loan being about as worthless as a
German mark.
Mr.. Brown purchased a second hand
car from the c. o. d. garage and be-
fore he had completed payments, he
traded the machine in on an Apper-
son, the deal being made through the
Midland garage. He recently sent the
C. o. ID. garage check in payment
for his obligation and the paper came
back marked insufficient funds"
This terminated his contract with the
C. o. d. and they took possession OF
the Buick. The Apperson, bought by
Brown under contract, was insured
against fire, theft and embezzlement
and the insurance company is now in
stituting a search for the recovery OF
the car. II was believed that the car
had been located in Arizona, but num-
hers wired by officers there did not
exactly with the number
of the car.

FLAMING CROSS
IS SEEN HERE
ku klux Klan Said to Have
Held Ceremony on Wilslef
Hill Last Saturday Night

A flaming cross of the Ku Klux
Klan was on the Wilslef hill, q short
distance from Gardnerville last Sat-
urday night and was seen by quite q
number of people. No doubt longer
exists that branch of the Klan has
been organized in this community, and
according to reports has a member
ship of about twenty.
1t is reported that three candidates
were initiated into the order at the
open air meeting held near Gardner
vile last Saturday night and that an
other class of candidates will be made
members within the naar future.
Thus far the Klan has worked in
strict secrecy in this community and
aside from the members no one knows
authentically of the exact member
ship gained in this section.
A cross was burned on the Wilslef
hill some weeks ago, but it was not
known for certain that it was a Klan
cross. The ceremony held last Satur-
day night, has removed all doubts that
the Ku Klux Klan has perfected an
organization in Carson Valley.

CREAMERY
DESTROYED

The Yerington creamery was COM
pletely destroyed by fire Tuesday af-
ternoon entailing a loss of $4,000, ac-
cording to Mr.. Oakley, a director of
the company, who was a visitor to
Minden Wednesday.
Fire started from a cross circuit in
the electric wiring in the attic and be-
fore the blaze was discovered by work.
men had such a headway that it was
impossible to save the building with
the fire-fighting facilities available.
The books and papers Were saved but
the machinery and building was a to-
tai loss and was not covered by insur-
ance. The building was a concrete
structure and was believed to be fire
proof.
Mr.. Oakley's visit to Minden was
for the purpose of making arrange
ments with the Minden creamery COM
pany for manufacturing butter at the
local plant during the erection of a
new creamery at Yerington, work on
which is to start Immediately.
The Yerington creamery had an out
put of about 1900 pounds of butter
daily. Cream from Mason Valley will
be shipped to Minden and the working
force of the Yerington creamery will
use the local plant at nights in order
not to disturb the manufacturing pro-
gram of the Minden concern.

JERRY IMELLI
TAKEN BY DEATH
Death of Young Man Brings
Widespread Sorrow to the
People of This Community

After an illness of six weeks, Jerry
Imelli passed away early last Tuesday
morning at the home of his mother at
this place, and his death has brought
profound sorrow to the people of this
community who deeply sympathize
with grief-stricken relatives.
The young man was a senior at the
Douglas county high school and took
up his studies with members of his
class when school opened this fall. He
was active in school events and was a
member of the football eleven, play
ing in several games just before his
recent illness. He was taken i'll with
typhoid fever, and while his condition
was serious almost from the start all
believed that he had fighting chance.
The young man battled bravely
against the great odds, and even after
septic poisoning developed, he still
maintained unusual fortitude and
would not give up. The best medical
aid obtainable was secured, but with
out avail, and early Tuesday morning
he spirit of the stricken lad winged
its way into the great unknown.
Jerry Imelli was the son of Mrs.
Sophie Imelli of this place. Here he
was born 18 years ago next June. He
attended the grammar school and then
took up his studies at the high school.
He was one of the most popular stu
dents at the school and was held in
the highest esteem by his classmates
as well as by the faculty. Jerry Imelli
was one of those whole hearted boys
that everybody loved and admired.
His jovial disposition was radiated by
the perpetual smile that forever pre-
dominated his frank face. His most
notable and beloved trait, however,
was the love he held for his mother.
He was ever considerate of her well
fare and was ever willing TO sacrifice
any of his own pleasures to bring hap
piness to her. 1t was not only his
younger companions that had deep
reverence for this young man, but
men and women alike were won by his
kindly manner.
Besides his heart broken mother, he
is survived by two brothers, Harold
and Sam, and three sisters, Mrs. Au-
gust Miller of Carson, Miss Clara and
Mabel Imelli of this place.
The funeral services were held at
the Gardnerville Catholic church yes
terday morning and were largely at
tended. As a tribute to his memory,
the high school remained closed and
the students attended tho services.
The casket was almost hidden be-
meath the many beautiful floral trib-
utes of classmates and friends.
Interment took place in the Garden
cemetery and the remains of this
highly respected young man were laid
to rest beside those of his father, who
died a few years ago.

QUARANTINE
VIOLATION
Farmers of This Valley Bring
Stock Over Line From Cal
ifornia Without Permission

warrant sworn to last week by
Dr Nielsen, of the state quarantine
hoard. charging Knox and Chris john
son of this Valley, with moving live
stock from California into Nevada
without inspection and in direct con-
aict with the quarantine regulations.
As a result of the violations of the
quarantine regulations, the johnson
property in this valley was placed un-
der strict quarantine and no livestock
mr. cream allowed to leave the ranch,
pending the enforcement of the quar-
antine which will be maintained until
il is deemed by quarantine officers
that all danger is passed.
The dairy and other live stock own
cd by johnson brothers are ranged
during the summer months in Lake
Valley. Last week the stock was driv-
en- to Carson Valley, without first Sc
curing a permit as is required under
the Nevada quarantine regulations.
This is said by quarantine officers to
be the first instance where the quar-
antine restrictions have been disre-
garded by stockmen of this county,
since the regulation went into effect
following the outbreak of the foot and
mouth disease in California last
spring.
Knox Johnson pleaded guilty in the
Justice court, while his brother en-
tered plea of not guilty. The case
came up for hearing before Judge An
derson at an hour too late for report
in this issue.
