representing the State Bank and

consisting of one-story building,
used as a saloon and billiard parlor
on the southeast corner of Main
street and Brougherj avenue, paying
therefore S1O,5OO. This figure is the
highest ever paid for Tonopah real
estate and has established new ba-
sis of valuation. The price is, in fact,
double what was offered for Main
street property month ago. [
The property was bought for the
corporation which controls the State
Bank and Trust company, and it is
the purpose to remove the building
now occupying the lot and build there

basement In building, however, cal
culation will be made to permit the
adding of another. structure as soon
as the growth of the town and dis

construction ct the building will be

it will be occupied by the bank and
the upstairs rooms will be rented fol
Office purposes. It will be seyera

be finished, but when it is it will be

Among the comparative limited

siasm and co-sharers in the glory of

A natural contemplation is an early
conference to arrange for an Innaugu-.

Tie time is opportune to restore
this neglected mark of respect which
the Sagebrush State was wont te be.
stow upon it's Chief Executive. The
Sentinel gives voice to a suggestion,
which is heartily approved, that the
Forthcoming event, instead of being
a local affair, be made one of interest
ta the whole State. An occasion that
will bring together 4 brilliant throns

The Sentinel is right. Carson, as
it is the Capital city. Shouts! see tf al

time comes an inaugural ball, a re

ing Case

Yesterday the case CT the guar |
dianship of Irma Robertson, came te-
fore the District Court, AM as Judge |
Mack was detained on business in
the District at Hawthorne, the mat |
ter went over until Saturday.
The case has caused a great deal
of comment in this city. It is a known
fact that the mother, an unfortunate
creature, is In no condition mentally
or physically to properly look after
the child, and the surroundings that
confront the little girl will ultimately
lead to the worst phases of life. Sew
eral attempts have been made by par
ties in this city to do something for
the future welfare of this partic-
ular child, and in every instance the
efforts have been baked by the me-
Their. 1t is natural that a mother
should make an effort to hold her own
child and prevent 1t from going into
the hands of strangers, but in this in.
stance, the well being for both par
ties would be a separation, as the
neighbors can testify to
Upon the failure of the parties in
this city, the ladies of the Childrens'
Rescue Home of Oakland, Cal, made
application for the little one, and in
order to secure possession. it is nee
essary that the State, through a Dis
trict Judge, appoint guardian. This

transacted yesterday The mother is
making a fight for the retention of
her own. and the ladies are contest
ing on the other side upon the advice
of friends of the unfortunates and the
advise of neighbors, who can and will
probably give some very disagreeable
testimony when the time comes.
It is not the intention of the Society
to place this child in a home of their
own organization,b but to find a home
in some responsible family where the
same advantages will be accorded, as
are extended the more fortunate chill
dren of families Many homes of thi.
nature have been found and the re
suits have been gratifying, as cal
be testified to by the records shown
by Mrs. Nichols and Mrs. Hershiser
whe are making application for tn
charge.
1t is net matter of town prid
that any distractions should be cas-

known, it would seem that for the fl
