The Commencement Ball given by
the Class Of 'ol, w. H. S., promises
TO be one Of the swellest affairs of its
kind ever given here. The hall will
be decorated with flowers. class colors
and bunting until it will seem like a
fairy bower Neither trouble no ex-
pense will be spared to have the floor
in perfect condition; and by no means
least. the full orchestra Of eight pieces
Of the celebrated Nevada State Band
Of Carson, conceded to be the best
'anatuer musical organization on the
coast, has been engaged for the occa-
sion. The privilege Of even listening

more than the price Of admission.
The Seniors deserve great credit for
their enterprise in this matter.

NEVADA HOUSE ANNEX
SUFFERS LOSS BY Fire

About quarter past ten O'Clock
the shrieking Of the fire alarm whistle
aroused the people Of Wadsworth,
many Of whom we're sleeping the sleep
of the just. The night was dark and it
was due 10 this fact that the fire was
not easily located and the work oi
getting first stream on the blaze was
hampered.
The fire was in the large annex of
the Nevada House and started on the
upper floor. more than likely from
lamp overturned by some intoxicated
lodger. Such, at least, is the general
opinion.
The water supply tanks we're running
over and the pressure was up to the
limit, so when Fire Marshal Goldng
and the crew of brave boys with him
turned the first stream on TO the flames
the water did very effective work.
lhe building is large one and pos
siby the hardest Of any structure II
town in which to quel fire having a
good start.
One stream could not drown the fire
at all points at once but shortly after a
second stream was added 1t could be
seen the boys would soon drown the
flames. For awhile IT was thought
some Of the dodgers had perished and
there was considerable excitement,
but it eventually proved that no life had
been lost nor had anybody suffered
bodily injury.
A number of the dodgers lost their
best bibs and fuckers and will have tc
refit before they can visit their Best
girls in the style they are accustomed
to.
OF those who we're in the house
some readily found the doors to their
rooms and walked out, while others
jumped through the windows, carrying
everything before them.
The reporter found Sheriff Mclnnis
completing his toilet in the yard and
mourning the loss Of his socks. Mac.
said 1t seemed to him he tried for half
an hour to get out by the door of his
room but failing that he made it
through the window.
Mr.. Donaldson says the loss is Gov
cred by insurance and the building will
be made habitable as soon as possible.
A part is now in use.
MIR. Linton and family were in the
house at the time of the fire and we're
all asleep.
Everybody in town, it seemed,
turned out Of bed and went to the scene
and everybody cannot say all they
would like to in regard to the splendid
work done by the boys who did noble
work as firemen.
We never saw better or more eff
cient work done. 1t was truly grand
TO see the brave boys labor to save that
property and to keep the fire from
spreading and to do it SO quickly and
SO well. We take off our hat to them and
to fire Marshal Golding. Whether the
flames were leaping in their faces or
the black clouds Of suffocating smoke
rolled around eyes and noses and
mouths mattered not, they faced it all
and imperiled their limbs to reach the
places where they we're needed. 1t was
glorious to see them
If we could we would gladly give
every name Of the heroes but the night
was too dark to see their faces.

A Tell-Tale Kew.

Small things sometimes tell big tales
and unraVel mysteries of long standing,
said an old detective, who has seen long
service in running down criminals in vari-
Gus parts of the country. The most
singular case that ever fell under my care
was case In which a white man had
been murdered i'm some mysterious way,
and the body was put away and all efforts
to locate IL were out OF the question.
Suspicion fell on a negro and he was ar
rested, but subsequently was released be-
cause i'm the absence of proof 10 connect
him with the crime The body was miss
ing and Ii was certain that man had
been murdered and robbed by sorne person
familiar with the surroundings. The
negro had worked for him, but had been
discharged because of impudence. Ten
years elapsed. All interest In the crime
had died out.
"One day some negro blackberry pickers
came across key which hung on the
limb OF a bush Because OF the growth
OF the bush the handle of the key was
partly buried In the limb. Right under
the bush the negroes found the bleached
decaying bones of human form. When
the matter was reported was sent out TO
investigate the matter. and gathered up
the bones cut the bush down and took
everything TO the police station. We went
back over the list OF missing men. There
was captain connected with the depart
ment who possessed n wonderful mem
ory and he turned all his attention to
the rusty key, which was still In the limb
of the bush. ! ought 10 state here that
the negro had remained In the community
and had by his industry bought few
acres OF land. on which stood the house
which had figured In the mysterious dis
appearance ten years before. Cut that
key out for me. said the captain and II
was cut out. lie had n consultation with
the chief. and, without telling me where
he was going. asked me TO go with him.
1--WE Travelled about four miles and
drove ND to a little house late I'm the even
ing. There was nobody at home. Il guess
we might as we'll go In the captain said,
and. pulling the key from his pocket he
showed Il into the lock. turned II and opened
the door We waited for the negro after
locking the door again, but he never re-
turned The house was watched all night.
but the negro never came. We grew
suspicious and soon learned that he
had fed upon hearing OF the discovery In
the brier patch Flight strengthened the
evidence of his guilt
He was arrested In neighboring State
returned, tried and convicted and finally
executed. The key which solved the
mystery had got caught In twig that
sprung up In the brier patch. and but for
this fact the mystery would never been
solved. New Orleans Times-Democrat
