are at present many tdifferent text books
treating Of the subject found in the lists
of the several high schools causing a lack
OF uniformity that seems to be wholly un-
necessary. There has been presented no
sufficient reason. either for an open list
or for a special list for each school,
There are no differing conditions which
require special treatment. and the adop-
tion made by the Board should be uniform
for all the high schools and should be i'm
partially enforced. as4Ng.-
The condition respecting general history
is not satisfactory, and for several rea-
sons it seems well defer the adoption
of any text ting OF that subject. but
in respect to all others an adoption is pos
sible. 1t would be well, however, to pro-
vide that In all cases where a class has
not completed an adopted book, a change
of texts shall not be required of that
class.
The following list of books is respect
fully presented for adoption for exclusive
use as regular texts. subject to suggested
exception in all of the high schools of the

Fishers version of the affair is
that he was passing Briant's tene-

and inquired what was the trouble.
Rriant answered him that his
(Briant's) step-daughter had either
to quit picking cotton for MN

demonstrated with him, suggesting
that he (Briant) had better go In

Congressman Van Duzer is as at

veterans of the Civil War as he is to
the demands of his male constituents.
Last winter a widow lady at Reno
wrote him concerning pension. He
investigated the matter and in very
short time secured action on her appli-
cation which had been pending for
some time securing Tor the widow an
allowance of So per month and back
pension of $500 with an additional 81

The nominees of the Republican
legislative ticket in Elko county have
little or no hope of success, and it is
reported that at least three of them
will make no canvass. Should this
decision be adhered to. they must al
least be accredited with the possession
of wiseness.
Many good and sincere Republicans
in Elko county think that Hon E. S.
Harrington should have some consid-
Grafton for U. S. Senator. and they
will hardly support a man for that
exaulted position who helped defeat
him two successive campaigns for
Congressman.

Any Democrat who votes for the
electors of any other ticket than the

The undersllirt jewel bag is an Eng.

provement over the smaller affair
worn with ribbon around the neck.
Cleverly constructed, this new bag
Is worn underneath the dress. 1t is
made of suede leather in some dark,
useful color, and is lined with silk or
leather. The large pocket, which
seems to be placed on the outside in
the center near the top, has strong
purse.clasp. Should it ever be pos
sible that this could come unIastened,
It cannot cape open at all WREN being
worn, on account of the two side flaps
that come over the back of the pocket
and keep all taut, says the Philadel
phia Public Ledger.
OF the strongest webbing. long
straps are securely fastened at the top
edge of the bag, and at the other end
they meet a waistband of webbing that
buckles firmly around the waist An.
other style for this travelling jewel and
money bag is of similar materials, the
large pocket having several compart-
ments inside; and the top of the bag
coming over like a flap to fasten with
patent Claps.

Velvet in Great Variety.

Velvet, which is being much used
for visiting and reception gowns, is
of new and wonderful softness and
comes in many varieties. Besides the
many stamped and printed designs
there are some inlaid with satin spots
and stripes and others of changeable
colors, which shade from brown to
deep orange or from petunia to pale
heliotrope The trimming of velvet
gowns is, of necessity, simple, and
lace-lrish or renaissance--is much

and still she clings to the poorhouse.
Since the announcement was made
in the local papers that Mrs. Garrison
had fallen heir to more wealth she has
received numerous marriage proposals.

suitors have not only written to her
that they wanted to marry her, but
even went 50 far as to call at the home
to talk of love.

there and neither will he let fortune
