Of parties in certain sections Of the
State to locate claim, do no assess

A GOOD
MEASURE.
A Nevada Exhibit at The
Worlds Fair at
St Louis.

Senator PRUDENTIAL has introduced
bill in the Senate for the purpose
Of paving the way for Nevada to make
an exhibit at the Worlds Fair at ST.
Louis next year Two years ago a
bill was passed allowing a commission
er to make an exhibit at Buffalo.
which has resulted In considerable
good to the State.
A number Of instances could be cit
ed where the result was satisfactory.
The sale Of the old Lapatna property to
New York people resulted from the
exhibit made at Buffalo, and likewise
the investment of capital at the Nc
kinlsy mines in Eastern Nevada. The
Tonopah Water Company also resulted
from the showing made, and all in all,
more taxable property has bean added
than money taken from the State.
Nevada is better able today than at
any time to make credltable exhibit
of her resources and industries.
There is not district in the State
that is not better off financially today
than year ago. more mines are being
worked than in a number Of years.
Nevada should certainly make an ex-
hibit at the biggest show on earth.
The amount Of the appropriation
will probably lead to discussion. but
it should be large enough to make a
showing with many that will be in line.

eta was read and the trial resumed.

regard to the books he had inspected.
A number of incidents in regard to

phase of the affair was still under
discussion when the court adjourned
for the night.

Yesterday in the Justices
Court at Reno

Butts and w. D. Phillips. charged
with the robbery that took place at the
Southern Pacific ticket office on the
morning Of January 10th, was called
in Judge Nash's court yesterday morn
ing at 10 O'Clock.
However, the Justice Court room
was entirely too small TO accommodate
the crowd Of listeners. and upon mo-
ton of District Attorney Pike, the
matter was postponed until o'clock
in the afternoon. and the hearing COM
nenced in the District Court room at
that hour
Attorneys Dodge, Packard and Cur
Ter appeared for w. D. Phillips, while
Harry Butts was represented by Hon.
William Woodburn, Of Carson. Dis
rict Attorney Pike appeared for the
State and he was assisted by United
States District Attorney Summerfield
The court room was packed with
friends Of the accused and those who
take an interest in matters Of this
kind, and the crowd became so dense
that on several occasions the officers
were compelled TO have spectators
seated on the stands on both sides of
the room.
L. C. McMurty, Of Sacramento, au-
ditor for the Southern Pacific Com
PAM, was the first witness called by
the prosecution.
He testified that he had examined
the books in the ticket office on De-
cenber 3. 1902, and found them to be
correct.
Again on January 20, 1908, he ex-
amined the books and found a short
age of $lo26,7O, this being twelve
hours after the alleged robbery took
place.

CAUGHT IN CLEVER TRAP.
How Impoiite Youth Was Led to Give
Himself Away.

How Impoiite Youth Was Led to Give
Himself Away.
The late Gen. Cassius M. Clay was
a graduate of Yale, a member Of the
class OF 1892. Sometimes he would
tell of a rebuke that he once gave to
an impertinent classmate. He was
sitting in his room, writing a letter to
a young girl. Three or four OF his
friends were with him. One youth,
who pretended to be absorbed In a
book, was slyly reading the somewhat
ardent sentences that flowed from the
Kentucky students pen. Clay sudden
ly became aware of this Improperly,
but he made no sign. Only he wrote
In his letter:
II would be more frank than am
/ would say more than this-but
there is an impudent cad looking over
my shoulder, reading every word !
write"
The youth referred to In that way
leaped to his feet
"Clay," he said, "you are a liar. !
haven't been looking over your shout

your internal letter."

There vas a resolution in his tone
that would not be denied. 1t was a
desperate thought which darted
through Bsrbara's mind, but she seized
and grasped it.
Wait here a moment" she said;
then she fed, with swiftly flying feet,
up the stairs.
Hastily she reached that silent and
deserted hall and once more stood in
the suite of rooms which constituted
to Avice a prison.
AWE lay, pale and listiess, in a great
arm chair, striving to recall the past,
which all seemed yelled In mist.

He is very i'll: 1t may be that he will

and would ask your forgiveness and
try in some way to restore you to your

YES" Avice answered; IL can for

way, except that his face returns to
me in connection with the darkest
hours of my life."
Come, then. with me-" and taking
her hand, Barbara led her through the
rooms and down the stairs into the
chamber where the sick man lay sleep
ing. "Kneel beside him, Avice," Bar
bara murmured. Remain thus quiet
ly knee!ing so that when he opens his
eyes he may know his prayer is an
swered."
Avice went softly forward and fell
on her knees beside the bed. The
white dress she wore enveloped her
like a cloud. Her hair fell in two
braids far below the slender waist.
Barbara swiftly descended the stairs
and beckoned to the man who waited.
"You have asked for proof" she
whispered. "You have sworn not to
disturb her; 'twould be at the peril OF
her life. Come with mel"
Silently Milton Lennox followed her.
Opposite a door she paused, and noise
lessly raised q curtain that he might
see within the room. A pale, suffering,
drawn face lay upon its pillow, the
eyes closed In slumber, while beside
him, as though in the act OF praying
for his recovery. knelt the giTlish fg-
ure of long-lost Arice. Truly, confirm
alton strong as Holy Writ!
A deep groan burst from Lemons
lips. Barbara dropped the curtain, and
he staggered like a drunken man TO-
ward the stairs.

Hard Fate That Kept Apart Two Ard

VIlk
PIN May. the English artist, In ms
youth worked on the Bulletin OF sgd
ney. Australia. Occasionally the young
man would be assigned to the police
courts, and from these assignments ne
would bring back some admirable
sketches. One of the best OF these
sketches hangs in the library OF Jo-
seph Chamberlain. 1t portrays a thin.
bang-dog man in the prisoners dock
talking to a sympatheticlooking judge.
Mr.. Mays story Of the sketch Is tina
the prisoner had been dragged before
the Judge every few months for a num-
Der of years.
"Your face is familiar here" the
judge said.
1T is, your honor-worse luck" re-
turned the prisoner.
"Are you married YETI Not yet

that you have been engaged?"
Seven years, your honor" !.

err explained, "Ann and ] haven't man

lona and short surnames.

An investigation to discover the
shortest surname seems to show that
Mr.. BY possesses 1t. OF course there
are others equally short in pronunci-
alton though weighted with a super.
fluous letter. Such is the name Of
DR.. Goe, the recently retired Angli-
al bishop Of Melbourne. George
AIDE. the writer, belongs to the list.
"Nye" is another example The
premier Of New South Wales, Sir
John See, has certainly established
a record for brsvity In this connec-
ton among prime ministers. Short
surnames naturally suggest long ones.
Scotland seems to supply a fair share
of the latter. Gentlemen who in these
busy times have to write feather
storehaugh" or "Osbaldistane" at tho
ends Of their letters are certainly en-
titled to sympathy. There is an Irish
chieftain, too, whose signature In
