CROSBY HIGH VS MERIDEN HIGH

Crosby High showed Meriden High yesterday that the Brass City eleven has no reason to feel afraid of the football team of the Silver city, judging from the game in Meri- den, which resulted in tie score, 5 to 5. Although Waterbury failed to win they should really have had two more touchdowns. The Meriden Record this morning had the follow ing about the game:
 The Meriden High school football team finally met the team from Cros- by High school, Waterbury, Tuesday afternoon, at Hanover park, after a long series of postponements. The game resulted in the same score as the first one played in Waterbury several weeks ago, 5 to 5. Meriden was fortunate to get off as easily, for Waterbury played superior foot baIl, and had the ball in their pos session most of the time. Once they carried the ball over the line only to lose it on a tumble, and again they carried it to within six inches of Meriden's goal line, to be held for downs. Waterbury scored in the first half, but the touchdown was made in the corner of the field, it was impossible to kick the goal. Meriden braced in the second half and carried the ball almost the en- tire length of the field for touch down, but Sklagen went over the line at the extreme left, Hyatt was unable to kick the goal. As it was then almost dark, the two captains agreed to call the game with the consent of the referee.
 Manager Terrell laid himself open to severe criticism for providing no officers to keep the field clear; the game was delayed frequently to get the crowd back, and Meriden was unable to get of one of its best plays owing to the presence on the field of spectators. There was only a small attendance. The lineup: Meriden. Waterbury. Nellis (capt) ..... .... Bauby

BIG OFFER FOR NINE.
$i5O,OO0 Price Paid for Twenty-Five
Claims Near Peacock.

After a long period of idleness, the
mines in the vicinity of the old Pea
cock are now in process of ~rejuvena-
ton, due to the fact that Greeley Sny-
der, of Salt Lake, representing the
National Development company, has
offered $4,000 for a group of
twenty-one claims belonging to Ben
Clark, James Beach and II. w.
Kelley.
The amount offered for the prop
erty is entirely satisfactory to the
local people, but a hitch in negotia-
lions wal brought about in regard to
the time when the payments should
be forthcoming. Clark and his part
ners demanded a 10 per cent payment
down before transferring their inter-
ests. Greeley Snyder replied that it
would be impossible to comply with
that provision, and asked that he be
given further time to turn over the
first lnstallment.
During the inspection of the prop
critics, Snyder took thirty samples
from the different workings. and
from every point on the group that
has ore in sight, there is a specimen
properly marked in his possession.
He has returned to Salt Lake where
he will have the samples tested, and
should the result prove satisfactory
will return to Ely to purchase the
mines.

buying supplies. to an Expositor man.

RUSSIAN PRESS CENSORSHIP.

Since the police have assumed so
universal a control over the every
day life of the people it is not at all
surprising that they should have sup
planted the press censor.
In this particular respect matters
were not half so bad under the old
system of censorship.
The censor was usually a univers-
ity man of general knowledge. Po-
litical bias or personal crotchets not
tnfrequently marred the impartial
discharge of his duties, but still his
control was infinitely preferable to
that Of an ignorant or specifically
educated police official who would, il
he could, abolish the press altogether.
The following incident, utterly
trivial in itself, may suffice to illus
trate the rigor of a police censorship
of the press.
| happened the other day to ac-
company a friend into the Office of
the Odesski Listok. He wished ID
insert in English a notice of thanks
to his British friends and neighbors
for their condolences offered on the
occasion of the death OF a near rela-
tive. The notice was clearly type
written.
But have you no Russian trans
lation for the police" asked the adj
vertisement manager.
My friend observed that surely no
translation was necessary of a notice
appearing in the obituary column.
we cannot accept it without the
translation persisted the
and ~thereupon | dictated a literal
translation into the ~vernacular.
An English or other foreign gov
eminent seeking pupils and advertis-
ing in her own language must hand
IN a verbatim Russian translation or
the advertisement is refused.
This kind of thing is bad enough.
but one may readily imagine the
WEAKNESS and yexation of the sub.
editor, who in the small hours be-
tween | p. m. and . a.. M. must wait
in a police ante-room while a lazy
and n%onchalant cigarette-smoking 20
lice censor wades through a bundle
OF proofs, and the subsequent harass-
ing anxiety Of the editor and printer
when the censor frohl caprice or i'll
VIII, chooses to refuse the official

The local reporting stats exppdit,.
things by waiting frequently through
out the day on the police censor with
their l%onghand notes OF local han
penings.

PROCLAMATION
BY The GOVERNOR
State of Nevada.

4 proclamation by the governor.
The law of this state has ordained
and designated the first Monday of
September in each year as Labor day,
thereby giving it equal prominence
with other days set apart, respected
and observed by our people. This
distinction was evidently not bestow-
I'd for the purpose of pandering to
the interests or prejudices of any one
class OF occupation, for every one is
supposed to labor in some capacity,
not cnly for his own interest, but also
6or the public good. 1t is certainly
apparent that the intention is to
aonoH labor in all pursuits, recogniz-
ing capital as a very essential part, to
5e respected in the harmonious adj
tustment of all differences that may
arise.
Now, therefore, | respectively in
site the people of this state to give
due observance to the day by assemb-
ing together i'll friendly council, and
discussing conditions in a dispassion-
ate way, and not to be influenced by
tntiammatory speeches made by pro-
tessionaf ~agitators from any source
whatever. The differences hereto
core encountered have been controll-
I'd and compromised without perm
anent loss in value, and without vio-
.ence to human life. This consery-
alive method existing between capt.
sal and labor has given confidence in
The future progress of Nevada beyond
che proud position now held. To
command respect, law and order
must always control. Let as continue
{ be Just to each other and all will
prosper.
In witness whereof, | have here
unto set my hand and caused the
great seal of state to be affixed. Done
II Carson City, this Cd day Of Aug
ast, 1907.

Governor.

poison into its system.
"Can you see now what the diabol-
ical doctor did? He had discovered
before the French professor that sui
phite of strychnine was harmless,
applied externally, unless an electric
current was passed through the pa
tient. He jumped at the opportunity
of bandaging Miss Treville's arm.
Then he went to New York to prove
an alibi, and on a plausible excuse
sent an electric battery to Mrs. ire
ville-trusting that feminine curios-
ity would induce the girl to try it.
The electric shock introduced the yio-
lent shock into her person and she
died Immediately. There can be no
proof-this is mere speculation. No
policeman can lay a hand on an orna-
ment of the medical profession. But
I'll tell you this. Young Travis is

sation with the great detective that |
read a startling paragraph in my
evening paper. 1t ran:
FATALITY AT A SHOOTING
PARTY.
DEATH OF DISTINGUISHED
PHYSICIAN.
"a great sensation was caused in
the upper peninsula today by a fatal
shooting accident at Charles Ire
ville's camp. Dr.. Beswick, the ia
nous specialist, had gone down for
the shooting. AS the doctor was
climbing over a fallen log this morn
ing Leonard Travis, who was follow
ing him, slipped, and the entire
charge struck DR.. Beswick in the
back. A surgeon, who was summon
ed, pronounced life to be extinct. Mr..
Travis is quite overcome by the ter
rible accident to his friend. An in
