Cliff House Is Attached.

San Francisco's great pleasure re-
sort, the Cliff House, which has an
international reputation, is in the
hands of a receiver as result of an
attachment for $38, OO0 which cred
itors claim to be due. Under the
receivership, the place will be OPP
Grated without interruption, but the
business reverses of the company
controlling the famous seaside resort
are a matter of surprise to San
Francisco people as well as others
who thought the Cliff House an excel
lent and paying business investment.

MINERS DRUG STORE,
Attractive Display of Christmas
Presents,

A varied assortment of gifts is on
display at the Miners Drug Store.
In fact, for town the size of Tono-
pah, the stock carried by that con-
Germ is unusual. For children there
are games of all kinds, and dolls of all
sizes and prices, There are also a
number of boxes of Lowney's candies.
A feature of the Christmas stock,
however, is the assortment of Hurd' S
stationery, which is second to none
to be found in the country. Boxes
of this writing material make excel
lent Christmas gifts, and there are
also many novelties in the stationery
line which are exceedingly reasonable.

FITZSIMMONS' COLORS
ARE STILL FLYING
Defeats Geo. Gardner in Battle
OF Twenty Rounds.

On last Wednesday night, the eyes
of the sporting world we're again
turned upon San Francisco; where
Robert Fitzsimmons aud George
Gardner c0ntended for tistic honors.
After a thrilling fight of twenty
rounds, the fight was given to Fitz-
simmons on decision. Those present
declared it to be in every way as
clean and fair fight as has charac-
terized the ring for many moons.
Gardner is a much younger man
than Fitzsimmons, but this, his one
advantage, seemed unable to weigh
against the many possessed by his
adversary. He is reported, how
ever, as having put up an exceedingly
plucky and creditable fight to the
last.

GIVE FIRST BALL
Brilliant Success ot Thursday
Entertainments.

entertainments.
Thanksgiving evening was made
memorable by the dance given by
Mizpah Lodge, No %, Of the Knights
Of Pythias at Mners's Union Hall.
The ball was the first annual enter
tainment of the order and marks the
formal adoption of Thanksgiving for
Knights of Pythias day in this city.
The dance proved in every way a
success. 1t was largely attended
and everyone participated enthusi-
astically in the dancing. The full
twenty-five dances scheduled were
played, and several extra numbers
were also interspersed.
j. r. Duffield acted as floor di-
rector, and the floor managers were
W. D. Nelligan, W. j. Sinclair, L. o,
Ray, W. W. Booth and @. S. Sparks.
All members of the order served on
the reception committee
A feature of the evening was the
souvenirs. These were of two sorts,
"A Knights of Pythias badge and an
elegant dance program The latter
was printed at the BONANZA office.
Mizpah Lodge, No. 25, everyone
agrees, has made most propitious
start in social way, and if all other
of the order come up
to the standard of Thursdays ball,

WEDDING BELLS IN THE GOVERNOR
MANSION.

Two days after Mcleod and
his bride reached Asheville on
their wedding trip, General
Worth received a letter which
threw him into paroxysm of
rage. Sallie's wedding had been
fixed for the day of the Inaugural
ton of the Governor. The invi-
tations were out and society in a
tlutter of comment and gossip
over the romantic and brilliant
career of young CASTOR, and his
luck in winning power, love, and
fortune in a day.
The letter was from Mcleod,
at Asheville, informing him that
his daughter was already marri-
ed, and that CASTOR was simply
seeking his fortune by subter-
fuge, and showing his power
over him by humiliating him at
the last moment before the world.
He enclosed a transcript of the
marriage record, signed by the
Rev. John Durham, and witness
ed by Mrs. Durham and Stella
Holt. This record was certified
before. the Clerk Of the Court
and bore his seal. There was
no doubt whatever Of the facts.
When the General handed this
letter to Sallie she flushed, look
ed wistfully into his face, saw it's
hard expression of speeches.

to tears,

CHAPTER XVI.

THE END OF A MODERN VILLAIN.
Two days after McLeod's
flight from Hambright the press
dispatches flashed from New
Y ork assassination of the Hon.
Allan Mcleod, the Republican
leader of North Carolina, in the
terrific campaign in progress,
and that he was compelled to flee
from the state to save his life.
Castor was elected Governor
by the largest majority ever
given candidate for that office
in the history of North Carolina.
Mcleod was promptly reward
ed for his long career of vi1iainy
by an appointment as our Am
bassador to one of the Republics
of South America, and the Senate
at once confirmed him. The
salary attached to his office was
SIS, 900, and his dream of a life
of ease and luxury had come at
last.
For six months he had been
quietly going to Boston paying
the most ardent court to Miss
Susan Walker, whom he had met
at her college at independence.
She was a matured spinster now
approaching sixty years of age,
and worth SIS, 100000 in her own
name.
He had easy sailing from the
first. He joined her church in
Boston, after a brilliant profess
ion of religion that moved Miss
Walker to tears, for he had told
her it was her love that had
opened his eyes. And it was
true. Mcleod timed his last
visit to Boston so that he arrived
the day the city was ringing with
the sensation of his attempted
assassination, and the desperate
fight he was making to uphold
law and order in the South.
When Miss Walker read that
article in her paper she resolved
to marry him Immediately. She
gave Mcleod a wedding present
of a half million dollars. He
wept for JOY and gratitude, and
kissed her with a fervour that
satisfied her hungry heart
that he was the one peerless
lover of the worle.

When this telegram came he
was in his office hard at work on
his inaugural address, outlining
the policy of his administration.
He was in a heated argument
with the Preacher about the
article on education, which fol-
lowed his recommendation of the
Acknowledgement of the Negro.
He had advised large appro-
priations for the industrial train
ing of negroes along the lines of
the new movement of their more
sober leaders.
It's mistake, argued the
Preacher, If the Negro is made
master of the industries of the
South he will become the master
of the South. Sooner than allow
him to take the bread from their
mouths, the white men will kill
him here, as they do North,
when the struggle for bread be-
comes as tragic. The Negro
must ultimately leave this contin-
ent. You might as we'll begin to
prepare for it.
But we propose to train him
principally in Agriculture. We
need millions of good farmers"

you, replied the Preacher,
Make the Negro a scientific and
successful farmer, and let him
plant his feet deep in your soil,
and it will mean a race war"
1T seems to me imprac ticable
ever to move him."
Why" asked the Preacher.
Those over certain ages can be
left to end their days here. The
Negro has cost us already the
loss of $1,000, 100000 a war that
killed half million men, the de-
bauchery of our suffrage, the
corruption of our life, and threa-
tens the future with anarchy.

MRS. APPY's CONCERT.

An unusual treat was afforded Wichita
music lovers on Tuesday evening in the
song recital given by Mrs. Henri Apply.
The arrangement of the program was
most happy and covered a wide range OF
classical and modern music.
The initial vocal number was Gounod' 8
''Oh. Divine Redeemer," a most exacting
selection. which was sung with beautiful
expression and artistic taste. A spontan-
eous burst of applause followed this
number and after a number OF recalls
Mrs. Apply responded with a tender little
"ballade.''
The entire program was received with
marked interest and appreciation and the
verdict was unanimous that among the
fine voices of the city none ranks higher
in sweetness, purity and touching charm
Mrs. Apply also possesses great interpre-
tative ability and TO a naturally fine
quality or voice has added the artistic
finish of careful and long cultivation.
Generous assistance was rendered by
a number OF talented musicians, among
them Misses Chapman and Frohman.
Mrs. and Miss Chlds, Mrs HIgginson
and Messrs. Higginson and McNeaI
