wild cat.
Mrs. Gertude Garrecht, accompanied
by her grand-daughter. Miss Jessie
Hylton, returned from a visit to the
fair this morning. We are proud to
note that amid the scenes of pleasure
oi the exposition city, Mrs. Oarrecht
remembered "her boys" in the Inde
pendent office, and she brought back
to us a splendid supply of good Ger
' man bologna sausage. This rememb
j ranee brings back memories which
' run back a quarter of a century to'
I
^ early childhood. Then our greatest
treat was to go to the Hot Springs,
and whether or not we had tyo bits
to pay for a swim, we were always
welcome. And after the swim there
!
' was always that big, fat bologna saus- :
j age Bandwich, the most delicious mors- ]
el that ever templed a boy's appetite.
Those days were golden and to live
| again just one of them would be worth !
a king's ransom. Now we are in the '
j mid-day of life and Aunt Gertie's curls '
j have been kissed with snowy white- 1
ness, but we are still "her boys". Her,
j voice is just as sweet, her smile is :
! just as beautiful, and time has only i
j strengthened the affection we feel, j
Not many boys have had such a wond- j
erful Aunt Gertie as ours, and we 1
i hope we will have her always.

The third trial of Jerry Hubvr foi
the killing of Billy Billings at Moun
tain City, was begun la the district
court this forenoon before Judge Tab
er. District Attorney Carvllle and
Deputy Cant well are conducting the
prosecution, and Attorneys D^sart and
McNamara are counsel tor the de
| fense.
Owing to the fact that such wide
publicity has been given the case in
its three trials, the work of securing
a jury is very slow, and the venire
may be exhausted without securing a
Ju#y.

Died at Jarbidge, Nevada, after a
brief illness, on Tuesday, November
23d, 1915, Charles J. Nelson, a native
of Sweden, aged forty-six years and
| eighteen days, he is survived by two
brothers in this country and three sist
i ers residing in Sweden. Deceased has
! been a resident of Jarbidge since its
I discovery, coming here in the Kail oi
1909 from Mountain City, Nevada,
I where he had been engaged in mining
and milling operations for a number ol
i years having arrived there in the
| spring of 1897 coming there from
i Leadville, Coolrado, where he also
> followed mining. He made Boulder,
| Colo., his first place of residence af
j ter landing in the United States, leav
I ing there for Leadville about 1890.
Mr. Nelson has been engaged in
mining since coming here, he and as
j sociates having located and developed
i the Success mine, he was prominent
; ly connected with the public and so
I cial life of the camp being one of the
i organizers of the Commercial club and
one of its most active members up to
the time of his death and for his sterl
\ ing qualities was respected and liked
by all in the camp ? men, women and
children, who deeply mourn his death.
The following resolutions were
adopted at a meeting of the Jarbidge
Commercial club, held on Saturday,
November 27th, 1915:
BE IT RESOLVED. That, in the
death of Cha'ies J. X^lFon the min
ing industry oi thi ca np has lost one
oi its most pr >grc s v - 11 embers, the
Commercial club c-o of its most
staunch supporters, the community at
large one of its most respected citi
zens and we the members of the Com
mercial club deeply deplore the un
timely death of our departed mem
ber.

ONE-SIDED
l By some queer quirk human nature
| Is so constituted mat a great many
persons can see but one side of a
question, The capitalist finds no mid
| die ground between his position and
that of the ardent labor advocate. The
prohibitionist believes the antl-prohi
bltionist is either a drinker himself
or in the pay of the liquor traffic.
The peace propagandist holds out no
hope for the man who wants peace
' through preparedness. The suffra
| (slats thinks the anti-suffragist Is
againBt all women. The small town
and the rural district are more in
dexible in their opinions than the
larger cities. This is caused by the
comparative aloofness of the resident
of small towns from their neighbors.
Where people are thrown together
closely, as they are in the apartments
and flats of the larger cities, they are
more tolerant. They allow their
neighbors the right to do and think as
he pleases, and take the same privi
leges to themselves. It has only
been in the last few years that a more
tolerant spirit is beginning to show
itself. We have been in the habit of
forming opinions about the conduct of
our lives, and then rushing to the
I legislature to gel laws passed to com
! pel other people to live as we think
1 they should. This lias had the in
evitable result of bringiug about a re
| action among those we would seek to
regulate, and \ve art learning, slowly
? all too slowly, that our life Is our
own to conduct, but that the lives of
other people are theirs and the right
to live as they see fit is also their In
alienable right. We are learning that
we spend too much time pelading with
the legislature, when we should be at
^ home leaching our children the dlf
I ference between right and wrong.
Nothing can be gained for the
strengthening of character by force of
law. In education alone can we reach
the end we desire. The exercise of
the power of resistance and the con
stant overcoming of obstacles go to
: form character and the upbuidling of
| spiritual force and better citizenship.
J Self-control is the supreme test of the
j individual. Neither history nor philo
sophy support the belief that char
acter is formed by prohibitive laws.

A HELPFUL SUGGESTION
"I tried to get a chance to speak
to you at church sunday," said Mrs.
Oldcastle, "but the crush was so great
that I couldn't push through to where
you were." *
"Yes, wasn't it awful?" replied her
hostess as she flicked a bit of dust
i from the Gobelin tapestry. "All the
common folks in town seem to want
to crowd into our church lately. It's
j too bad they ain't satisfied .to stay
j where they belonc. How did you like
(the sermon?"
"Well, as a sermon it was fairly
good, but I do wish Dr. Goodman
would quit splitting his infinitives. I
try not to let it make me nervous, but
I can't keep from being shocked every
time he does it."
"I never let them kind of things
bother me, but that's where the Epis
copal* have the advantage ol us. If
our preacher would wear a long robe
! be could split them and you'd never
' notice It." ? Chicago Record-Herald.
IT WASN'T THE CAR
j About 2 o'clock last night Mr, and
' Mrs. Hy Geer were awakened by a
mysterious noise.
"Listen!" said Hy, and they sat up
In the dark.
"Somebody's breaking into the gar
jige." Mrs. Geer whispered.
"I'll go and see," answered Hy.
In dressing gown and slippers lie
i stole out of the bouse and across the
| lnVn.
The garage door was locked. There
I was no sign of anything wrong. He
j returned to the house anu reported.
"I wonder what it could have been." |
said Mrs. Geer. "I'm sure I heard
something."
"So dlii I." said Hy; but the car's |
all right."
They were almost asleep, when sud
denly Mrs. Geer aroused with a start. |
"Perhaps it isn't the car at nil,"
i said she. 'Perhaps it's the baby."
i "By George, 1 never thought of I
I him!" replied Mr, Ge^r.
They found that their six-months |
! old sou had fallen out of his crib.
