 All of the fixed events are well filled and prospects for a successful twenty days of the sport wero never so bright. There are in excess of 300 horses quartered at the track or in the immediate neighborhood and several stables will have to ship to other racing points on account of lack of stable accommodations.
 The three-year-o r-olds quartered at the track are among the best in the country, and include Sam Philipps, The Conqueror, F. w. Erode, Admiral Schley, Capron, Elizabeth Klein, The Rush, Dr. Riddle, Flo rizar Belle of Orleans Lamplighter, Lady Elite, Brownie Anderson Thrive and others.
 Although the two-year-old brigade have had but little time at Little Rock to give a public demonstration of their worth, 1t is generally admitted among the horsemen and trainers at the track that a large colony of the youngsters are possessed of lots of class, if appearance and work in private goes for anything.

DEDICATION.

tuesday evening assembly hall In.
the new school building was crowded
by our people who had gathered there
to assist by their presence in dedicat-
ing our monument to education.
The platform was occupied by Dr.
Stubbs, President Of the State Univer-
sity and the orator Of the evening,
Prof. Cushman Of the University,
whose forte at that institution is English
Literature. Mr.. E. E. Caine. principal
Of our schools and chairman of the
meeting. our board Of school trustees,
j. w. O'Brien. L. S. Bridges and
Alex Pollock, and Rev. T. L. Bellam,
resident minister.
The exercises we're opened with
prayer by Rev. T. L. Bellam, after
which A. H. Grlswold and wife and Prof.
Henry delighted the audience with waltz
music on the piano. cornet and violin.
Principal Caine in his Introductory
address spoke briefly but eloquently in
regard to the relation between the
home and the school room and their
dependence upon each other. He re-
viewed the history and progress Wads-
worth has made in school buildings
and educational facilities. contrasting
our first and primitive log house with
the substantial structure that is used
for the same purpose today.
DR.. Stubbs was introduced by the
chairman and spoke for one hour.
DR.. Stubbs has no peer as an orator in
the State and it is automatic that his
heart is wrapped up in our public in
stitutions of learning. His oration was
not only an eloquent effort but was re-
plete from beginning to end with ideas,
suggestions and ways. that appealed to
all present and could be applied to use
and benefit. Its value was beyond
price. The more frequently we see
this man and listen to him discourse
before public bodies the more we are
impressed with him and the more we
realize what tower Of strength for
good he is to Nevada. His loss to us
would be a public calamity. He is
much more to us than we pay him for
his services. Why does not the man
for the occasion come forth to head
the project for supplying the head Of
our University with a suitable resi-
,, dence by subscriptions from Neyadas S
citizens2 1t needs only capable lead
er to insure success. Should We lose
DR.. Stubbs our loss would be irrepar-
able.
Prof. Cushman made a short ad-
dress.
Prof. Henry rendered very sweet
solo on the violin. b
The parson pronounced benedic-
ton and the audience disbursed.
The audience was interested and
appreciative and every number was
greeted with applause.
All visitors to the school with know
ledge of the subject speak most favor
ably Of the construction Of the building,
its conveniences, sanitary points, ETC.,
and DR.. Stubs was complimentary to
architect, builder and trustees, in pre-
face to his address.
