Hon. Key Pittman, Tonopah:
wish you would advise the
people of Tonopah consider it
wholly uncalled for the action of
the Reno Journal in sending doc

any. The doctors of the state board
will arrive there tonight to render
assistance if needed. Please wire
me conditions
GOVERNOR JOHN SPARKS.
The Journal comes back and tells
the Governor to mind his own bnsi-
ness. 1t suggests that if he pays
more attention to the duties of his
office and less to criticising the
Journal, he will come nearer earn
ing his salary.

WOULD HAVE GAMBLING
DEPARTMENT IN UNIVERSITY
lack Potts" Seconds Motion Made
by Sam Davis in Winnemucca
Silver State.
We take the following from the
Silver State of April Is:

The Silver State received the
following letter in the mail this
morning. 1t contains food for
Thought" and is published to give
the Board of Regents and Uni
versity a "hunch:'
Editor Silver State:
A few days ago you published
in your valuable paper an article
from the pen of the inimitab bile
Sam Davis of the Carson Appeal,
in which he advocates the estab-
fishing of a Chair of Applied
Poker in the State University at
Reno, in order to properly equip
those attending that institution
for the battle of life.
The pathetic story he cites of
the unsophisticated University
student who pitted his highly cul-
tured intellect against that of a
Reno gambler in "a game of poker
and exhibited such ii Woful lack
of education in this important
practical branch of Il Nevada
gentleman attainments, cer~r
tainly illustrates the urgent need
of Chair such as Mr.. Davis pro
poses.
Think of a young man educated
to dig up Greek by the roots and
Who is familiar with the inmOst
thoughts of the deceased masters
Of deceased languages not being
able to tell whether three of Il
kind beat two pair or whether a
six shooter beats royal flush.
A young man may know
enough, to open prayer meeting
and still his education be of little
use to him in Nevada if he has
not learned how to open a jack
pot. He may know all about the
ante-diluvian race, and still. ii he
knows not how to ante in poker
game, he will cut little ice-in
Nevada. He may know how to
solve the most intricate and per-
picking mathmetical problems,
but if he know not the value OF
the magic = come IL, what adj
vantage has he gained!
The student is taught at our
institution of learning how to
fence, box and tackle. By all
means give him a chance to learn
how to buck the tiger" before
he has to meet him in his native
lair in the jungles of Reno,
wholly unprepared.
Many a young man has made a
failure of life because he didn t
know enough to keep out OF
range of a crap game when the
dice were loaeed.
We would 60 step further
than Mr.. Davis and advocate the
installation of a Department OF
Gambling at our State Univer-
sity, to be devoted exclusively to
instruction in the various games
of cinch as practiced in the city OF
Reno today. In order that lib
eral education along these lines
may be assured, there should be
installed "A complete gambling
laboratory, modern throughout,
such as received the endorsement
of the late lamented 22nd legisla
ture Of Nevada.
Competent professors of High
err Poker, Stud Poker, Plain
Faro, ETC., should be employed
to teach the student how to APP
proach the games and part with
his money in an easy, dignitied
and natural manner.
We second Mr.. Davis motion.
Yours truly,
JACK PORTS.

DAVIS MAKES REPLY
SOMETHING REGARDING DR.REED'S
 S.FRENZIED REPORTS"
Colonel GOrgas of United States Med icaI Corps Quoted to Show Health Conditions Prevailing in
 Panama.

Washington, March 2S.-The follow ing cablegram from Panama was made public at the War Department today: Secretary of War, Washington:
 The following is the substance of the report of Colonel William c. Cor gas, Medical Corps, U. s. A. chief san itary inspector for the month of Feb ruary. 1905:
 Sick in hospitals. 151; the entire force on the rolls for the month of February :. 700; per centage of sick :n hospitals, therefore. less than per cent. Number of deaths, g. which is equivalent to rate of If per thousand per annum.
 The French commenced work in 1881 during which year their entire force averaged 928 and their deaths in the Ancon hospital alone were 72, or at the ratc of 67 per 1000 per annum, nearly five times the American rate.
 The deaths from yellow fever in the Ancon hospital only during the year 1881 were 25, an average force Of 92S, while the deaths from yellow fever during the past ten months in force averaging $500 were only six. The French statistics only relate to the Ancon hospital. If all deaths among the employees under the French during that time along the entire line were included the mortality would be much higher. The last case of yellow fever to occur in Panama was on March and the last case from Colon on March I6. The total number of cases among the entire population on the isthmus during January was 19. during Feb ruarv 13 and during March to date of this cable, g. Ihe present sanitary force consists of over 1000 employees costing over $25,000 monthly.
 This report together with Colonel csorras.s letter of February l sent you FebTuary 3. Is in my opinion. sufficient renlv to pr. Reeds frenzied reports. ' Davis.

 N. Stockholders.
 Louisville, Ky. March 2S-The stock holders of the Louisville and Nashville Railroad Company. at a special meet ing held today authorized the issue of $50, ,0O0, 900 additional bonds. Out of a total of 600,000 shares, 100000 shares were voted and no votes were cast against the proposition. None of the Eastern stockholders or directors were present. To secure today's bond issue a mortgage was executed for $50.0oo,- 900 on the line of railroad extending from Cincinnati by way of Knoxville to Atlanta. Ga, and now known as the Atlanta, Knoxville and Cincinnati di- vision of the Louisville and Nashville, which is nearing completion.
 It was the intention of directors to request the stockholders to pass upon a resolution assenting to the purchase of the South and North Alabama Rail- road Company. However, since the last directors meeting, litigation has been instituted by one of the stock holders of the South and North Ala, pama Railroad to- o>prevent the consoli- dation of this line with the Louisville and Nashville and a restraining order has been issued by the courts.
 In view of this fact resolution was adopted postponing action on this mat ter until the regular meeting to be held Tn this city in October.
 The South and North Alabama road is now and has been for many years operated by the Louisville and Nash vile.

 Given Out Today.
 Boston. March 2S.-Positive action was taken on the question accepting John D. Rockefellers gift of $lOo.0oo to the American Board of Commlssion- CTS for Foreign Missions at a meeting this afternoon of the prudential com mittee of that organization, but the nature of the action was not disclosed. The committee announced ofhcialiy, however, that a statement citing the action of the committee would be given out tomorrow after the report. which is in the fogm of resolutions, had been of- ficially communicated to committees appointed at a meeting of Congrega- tional clergymen of Boston and vicin- ity to protest against the acceptance of the Rockefeller gift.
 The prudential committee and the committee of ministers who opposed the acceptance of the gift went into secret session at congregational house at 2:30 o'clock. Not until nearly three and a half hours later were the doors of the committee room opened and Secretary Barton announced that the committee had voted unanimously not to make any statements concerning the action with reference to the Rocke- feller gift until tomorrow, when a formal statement would be issued.
 Dr. Barton said, however. that the report of the subcommittee on the question of accepting the gift, notwith- standing the protest, was unanimous. although he would not disclose in any way the nature of tfis report. He ad- mitted that the prudential committee had taken some definite vote in regard to accepting the gift. but 1t was deemed best not to announce it until tomorrow l. entire committee were not in a com- plete form. and because they had not been officially communicated to the protesting committee.

 Mrs. Florence Elizabeth Maybrtck' the one time Alabama woman recently freed from a life sentence in an Eng fish prison for the alleged murder of her husband. is in Washington to give testimony in the case of her mother, Baroness Won Roques. against ID. w. Armstrong.
 Armstrong, the Baroness and her daughter charge, used undue influence and deception during the latters dis tress to induce her to sign away valuable property such as IS involved fin the present suit now pending in chancery at Richmond, Va The land in question has long been in litigation and. being of the most valuable coking coal lands of West Virginia, possess value hard to calculate.
 Mrs. Maybrick talked animatedly to- day to a group of newspaper men. She does not look like one who has just suffered the confinement of fourteen years in prison. She has show of health, blood in her cheeks, hair un- tinged with gray and vivacity in voice and manner She wore round hat of hIack straw. trimmed with a bunch of red roses, showing here and there a touch of green leaves. About her neck was a feathery gray stock. and with A skirt of q rich plum color and A wide girdle of lavender she wore a shirt waist of soft clinging white ma terial.
 you know she said to newspaper men. 'I am one of you know. I write articles for New York papers and my time is pretty well taken up. Yes. l like the work very much. When was in prison I had barrels to write" She laughed, with characteristic out spreading of her slender fingers. But I know that the trouble is to deter mine what sort of thing the public likes to read.
 you can always find something to write. can you not? But the great thing is to know what not to write. You have to pick out things that ap- peal to your readers, and then, con- densetion is a great matter. find. Still. while I am travelling about the State on my work l find plenty to do."
 She laughed pleasantly. as enthusi- astic as a boy over her new work.
 Its this way" she exclaimed. T came over here without my mother and she is too poor to come to me, so I have to work along here and make all the money can until this case is decided. It interferes with my work a lot hut after all 1t will decide whether I am to have my fortune and that means everything 10 me. you know" R. F. Watkins

 Practically complete reports show that the Russian army sacrificed gem eral commissariat stores to the amount of S1,250.000 and stores for an army corps amounting to $5o0.o0o held at Mukden, most of 1t being set on fire. the boots and uniforms among the stores of which tho whole army was in need, arriving from Europe four days before the Russian retirement from Mukden.

 open peace negotiations with Japan. Delcasse has signified his willingness, but considers that Lansdowne's co-op- eration is essential to success"
 The News in Washington.
 Washington, March 2s.-Diligent in- qulry tonight failed to develop what if any assistance this Government had been in the way of bringing about pre- liminary negotiations for peace between Russia and Japan. but inasmuch as nearly all the American officials likely to have knowledge of such matter were at social functions or were oth- erwise inaccessible, the inquiry neces- sarily was not complete. It is known that this Government for long time has stood prepared to use its good of- fees in the interest of peace whenever the opportune moment arrived for ac- ton by this Government without seri- |ous risk of giving offense to either of the combatants and thereby lessening our power for good.
 A prominent head of one of the dip- iomatic establishments here when shown the, St. Petersburg statement, said that he had heard nothing to con- firm the report. At the same time he would not be astonished if 1t is accur- ate, though he had not expected mat ters to reach that stage yet.

The district of Monte Cristi is the hot bed of the rcvolutionists in Santo Do- mingo, and 1t was believed that Barba and his assistants would head for that section.
