ROUND MOUNTAIN
STAGE IS LOOTED
~Highwayman Gets Between $4,000
and $4,000.

A dispatch was received on We'd
nesday, from the Office of the Round
Mountain Nugget, that the stage
running between Round Mountain
and Manhattan had been held up
and considerable plumber secured.
Upon investigating the matter it
was found that the holdup occurred
about a mile from Round Mountain
and between $4,000 and $4,000 in
currency secured.
AS soon as word reached Round
Mountain a posse was formed and
a V immediate pursuit. Up to go
ing to press no word had been re-
ceived as to the outcome of the
chase.
The circumstance surrounding the
robbery are very peculiar and it
would certainly look like collision
somewhere. LOTUS and Davis, of
Goldfeld, made two shipments of
currency to pay off the men on the
Wilson placer lease at Round Noun
tain. There are 26 men at work.
The amount sent was to W. the
monthly pay roll. From Goldfield
it was transported by auto to Man.
haitian and thence transferred to the
Round Mountain stage. The great
est secrecy was maintained regard
ing the shipment. The driver OF
the stage, beside the auto people
wa sthe only ones who knew what
was in the precious package under
the seat of his stage. From the
dramatic way the bandit went at hi
work and the ease with which HI
located his spells points to the fac
that he had previously received a tip
Stage robberies in this State are
very unusual thing, and it would b.
an impossible coincident that whel
some person should suddenly be
come so bold as to commit a holdup
a regular bonanza should fall int,
his hands. While not advocating
undue violence it is hoped that tn
highwayman will be quickly take
into custody, and the full penalty o
the law melted out to him as a de
terring example to others who Nigh
be similarity inclined.
This Office is indebted to MI

The Butler Theater Company.

The Butler Theater Company, which
was recently organized and fitted up a
theater on the corner Of Brougher
avenue and Main street, gave their
initial entertainment last Tuesday even
ing. The plays were of the vaudeville
order and we must say that the per-
Torrance was fully up to the best to be
seer in any metropolitan city. The
house was crowded to the doors and the
mirth of the audience throughout the
plays showed a full appreciation of
their merit. On that evening the play
was Diamond and Mack" a juvenile
act in which Ethel Casette figured in
the serio-comic role and Fred Black
burn sang SIN the Valley of K kentucky. y
Mr.. Alphin acts as pianist, and q
thorough one he is. The moving pic
lures, operated by Frank Murphy, were
very interesting. The intention of the
management is to give two shows every
night and matinees on Saturday anc
Sunday. In connection with the regular
performance amateur performance viii
be given on Friday nights.

STOPS A RUNAWAY
Jim Sullivan Brings Wild Steed
to Bay---LiVeS Imperiled

Tonopah witnessed this morning
an exciting incident as well as being
treated to an exhibition of cool
headedness and great personal
bravery.
A horse attached to a light de-
livery wagon owned by w. P. Sol
lender, took fright while standing
on Main street and made a wild
dash.
Turning into Brougher Avenue he
started up this thoroughfare at a
mad pace followed by a pack of
barking dogs who added to his
already frenzied state. The street
was crowded with men, women and
children directly in the path of the
on rushing steed. That someone
was not badly injured is due to the
courageous action Of Jim Sullivan.
Mr.. Sullivan was standing on the
corner of Brougher Avenue and st.
Patrick street. Seeing the danger
to the pedestrians, and without re-
gard for personal safety, Mr.. Sui
livan rushed into the street and
made a flying leap at the horses
bride neatly catching il, Although
carried by the impetus of the furious
beast he managed to bring him tc
a stop directly in front of the
Bonanza office.
During the horses flight there wal
mad scrambling to get out of the
runaways path; but his speed was
too great for all to seek protecting
shelter, and Mr.. Sullivan's brave ac
without question saved many from
injury.
Except for the loss Of some wine
Mr.. Sullivan suffered no injury, ant
the wagon was unframed.
Mr.. Sullivan has been busy al
day receiving congratulations iron
those who witnessed his heroic act

A Runaway.

Last Tuesday as Messrs. Sanguinetti
and Goodrich of Tonopah, were returning
from Golden Arrow with a double team,
they stopped at Longstreet's corral at
Coyote Springs, about 20 miles out in
the desert, to feed and water the
animals. Immediately after the brides
had been removed and before the halt
ers could be adjusted, the team took
fright and ran away. Fortunately the
horses took a circuitous run instead Of
a straight one so they were soon re-
captured. Mr.. Goodrich was dragged
some distance in his efforts to hold the
team and was considerably scratched
up, but otherwise he was uninjured.
But little damage was done to the
buggy.

A CHANGE IMPERATIVE

The State of Nevada will not permit
itself to lose one foot of the wonderful
advancement it has made at the great
sacrifice of money and life but intends
to march onward and still onward until
in has reached a position in this grand
union where it is on a parity with its
most progressive sister State. Of
course, it is not the geographical and
geological conditions that make the
State, it is the citizens that inhabit it.
Therefore, for a State to reach a posi-
ton of high perfection it must first
have highly, honorable and respectable
citizens. These essential attributes can
only be assured through the medium of
proper and successful education. The
growth Of this State has been so great
in the past few years that it has left
far behind those governmental institu-
lions which four or five years were per-
fectly adequate. Particularly so is this
as regards the present educational
system of our State, and the time has
arrived when immediate steps must be
taken to remedy the defects and place
the system on a basis equal to that of
any other of the States in the union.
The school population is increasing at a
rapid pace and all good citizens W to
their Maker, their Country and their
State, to see that their children are
properly equipped to fight the battle of
life. what better armament against the
onslaught of the ways of the world, is
there than a good sound thorough edu-
cation. 1t is the basis of success, and
TO deprive your little ones of the best.
is to start them in life, with a verita-
lie milestone about their neck which
will certainly. in time, bear them down
into the mire of failure and despair
while their more fortunate brothers
and sisters march triumphantly on
ward. Education is the foundation of
good citizenship. One does not, if he
expects it to last, erect a building
without a firm foundation, neither can
you expect good citizens unless they
are started right. "As the twig is bent
the trees Inclined" Nevada is en-
titled to the very best possible system
and what is more, the people of this
State in their might are going to have
it. We do not expect a plumber to
bake bread or do we think that it is
proper for a doctor to attempt to lay
brick and what a howl would go up If a
machinist should perform a major
operation at some hospital in the State.
Yet dear people so far as u public
school system is concerned we are per-
hitting in~congruities just as great as

A p.

The number of friends on the or
posite side of the fence places this
paper in a very paradoxical position.
We can only reconcile ourselves with
the tradition that "politics make
strange bedfellows." Accordingly
we wish to acknowledge the courtiest
call at the Bonanza Office yesterday
of Frank P. Mannix, Democratic
nominee for Secretary of State. We
can fully console ourselves with the
knowledge that not matter how the
tide may go the Secretary of State
office will be in good hands. VIZ
wish Mr.. Mannix well.

FOR SECRETARY OF STATE.

The card of w. G. Douglass appears
in this issue of the BONANZA announcing
that he is the regular Republican nomi-
nee for the Office of Secretary of State.
MI. Douglass appeared tefore the pub
lie four years ago, asking for this same
office and was elected by a large ma
jority. The Republican State Conven-
ton has renominated him and we can
see no reason why he should not be re-
elected. He is a true Nevadan, having
lived in Virginia City for owe twenty
years, has made and spent his money
here and has the best interests of the
State at heart. He was first an attache
of the ]. M. Douglass bank, then was
in the brokerage business for many
years and later followed mining, being
a mine superintendent and manager.
About two years ago he inaugurated a
new system of irrigation whereby the
waters of Washoe lake were pumped
up on the surrounding country, reclaim
ing the arid lands and making them fit
for cultivation. The system was
a thorough success much benefit was
wrought thereby. In 1902 he was
elected Secretary Of State, and, that he
has made a very efficient and pains
taking officer no one will deny. He
will surely win out by a large majority
on November 6.

NO. 1.-ONLY CORRECT WAY FOR CENTER
TO HOLD BALL WHEN SWAPPING BACK.
(nothing to do with the rushes on the
Nile that sheltered Moses from oppos-
ing tacklers), and, owing to q general
misconception as to some phases of
center play. it would seem that an ac-
curate explanation would not go amiss
at this time
The important effect of the new rules
make extreme care necessary in his
mode of handling the ball preparatory
to and during the Swapping back
The ball must be held absolutely
straight at right angles to the scrim-
mage line, and it is not permissible to
raise either end materially from the
ground before it is snapped back.
In illustration No. four incorrect
modes of swapping back the ball are
shown. A careful study of these illus
trations will repay any center man.
Now that there is a clearly defined
interval between the two rush lines in
scrimmage formation the troubles OF
the center rush are materially decreas-
ed. Clearly he is now one of the favor
ties of the rules committee. This is
only right, as for years the poor abused
snapper back has been the most an
noyed and pestered man in the lineup.
The opposing two guards and center
have always in the past considered the
snapper back their legitimate prey,
