Tonopah daily bonanza. [volume] (Tonopah, Nev.) 1906-1929, 1907-07-13

The fire bell awoke the sleeping
residents of Tonopah at 4:20 yester-
day morning and in less than ten
minutes several hundred people had
gathered along Florence avenue to
watch small house belonging to
Mrs. Van Mohr burn to the ground
Fire Chief Mckenzie had his appar-
atus on the ground within four min
utes and kept the fire from spreading
to the adjoining houses. Mrs. Van
Mohr and her little 6-year-old
daughter escaped with only their
night gowns on. Friends came to
their assistance and will care for the
mother and daughter temporarily
The cause of the fire is not known,
but something in the house is believ-
ed to have caught fire and shoulder
ed all night, finally breaking into
flames.
Mrs. Van Mohr has been taking in
washing for living with which to
support herself and daughter and the
fire has left her in very destitute cir
cumstances. The Bonanza has start
ed a subscription list and already
$145.75 has been subscribed.
This is the third time the fire de.
partment has been called out to put
out fires in Mrs. Van Mohr's house
The first time the lady admits that
the fire was due to her own careless
ness, but she cannot account for the
fire this time unless it was set on
fire. Her small home and the tent
house where the laundry work was
done were both destroyed and the
loss will approximate several hun
dred dollars. The fund now being
raised by The Bonanza will start Mrs
Van Mohr in business again SO that
she can continue to support her g.
year-old daughter and herself.

explained by the fact that the exac-
tIons of the steel kings finally drove
Congress to the verge OF desperation

There Is also reference to the Wild

There must, sooner or later, be a
change in the method of allotting
funds in the militia. At present the
apportionment is according to the rep
resentation in Congress. and it gives
rise to all sorts of absurd iniouides.
For example, if New York only had
one company of militia for each Con-
gressman, it would receive the same
amount from the Federal government
it does now with total strength of
$4,000. The smaller the number of
militamen the larger the allowance
per man, which operates to encourage
rather than discourage enlistments.

SWELL SOCIETY BARS
THE PERRY BELMONTS

Jockey club, Turf and Field, Coaching
club, and similar organizations in this
country, but he is a member of the
Reading room at Newport and was
one of the two Americans elected to
the Paris Jockey club. To cap the
climax Perry Belmont is president of
the Allied Hunt club, of which the
Chevy Chase organization is a sub.
ordinate member.
The divorce records of the Belmonts
is believed to have something to do
with their rejection. Mrs. Belmont
was formerly Mrs. Henry T. Sloane.
Sloane sesured a divorce from her
in 1899, and she was married to Bel
mont the day the decree was granted.
Perry Belmont also has a divorce rec
ord. He married a Miss Sarah Whit.
ing when he was a young man, and
the two went to Paris on their we'd
ding trip. Mrs. Belmont came back
alone and secured a divorce. A baby
was born after tae divorce was
granted.

IT has developed that the Perry Bel
/ monts have suffered a rebuke in
their attempt to break into" Wash
ington society. Mr. Belmont has been
rejected as a member of the Chevy
Chase Hunt club, and this action has
brought to a climax a sensational So
cial situation.
The fact that there has been all
winter a social campaign for and
against Mr.. and Mrs. Perry Belmont
into which all their New York connec-
tions-the other Belmonts, SlOanes
and Astors-have been drawn, makes
this social tempest of wider proper
tons than those which are ordinarily
discovered in teapots.
What is, perhaps, the most curious
part of the situation lies in the fact
that Mr.. Belmont is an active mem
Der of many cubs far and away

is not only a member of the Knicker-

catarrh, who was disposed to be In
dignant, and the porter who had been
dispatched with the cigars vas called
up. He said that he took them to
the office and handed them to a mes
senger, who promised they should be
delivered without any delay. They
had not been, however, and it became
necessary to investigate the mystery.
An explanation came next day,
when the other friend with a name
sounding like that of the sick man
called on the druggist and thanked
him for what he thought had been
a present to him. He wanted to find
where he could procure another box,
as he had used all of these. There
was a peculiar flavor to the tobacco,
he said, that he liked very much. He
didn't know they were medicated
cigars until the druggist told him, and
the matter vas set straight by the
other gentleman being promptly sup
piled with his catarrh remedy, and
then they all enjoyed the joke.

green vegetables the path of the fat
man who wants to reduce is made
easier.
To fat ones the government says:
Eat little, sleep little and drink less"
To the thin man it says: Drink all
you can, eat all you can and sleep
as much as you can"
The thin man who wants to get fat
must eat and drink everything that he
can stomach. He must eat plenty OF
potatoes, bananas and bread; most
important, he must drink before and
after his meals.
The experts say it Is principally
what a person drinks and not what he
eats that makes him fat. Fat is
mostly water, it is asserted, and the
more water or other liquids a person
slows away the more likely he is to
gain weight.
Above all, a thin person who wants
to spread out must sleep ten or eleven
hours a day. A nap after each meal
is offered as an excellent inducement
for fat to come anG stay. On the
other hand, the mar who is trying to
lose weight is advised that he keep
moving after a meal to thwart the
dread %adipOse.

WRONG MAN, BUT HE WAS
PLEASED WITH THE SMOKE

MONG the numerous employees of

names, though they differ in the way
of spelling them, are not altogether
unlike in the hammer of their prOnun-
citation. Both of them have the good
fortune of being close friends of a
prominent druggist, and the elder of
the two has frequently obtained from
the medicine man a supply of medi-
Gated cigars, which he finds to be of
value in giving him relief from a
catarrhal affection.
Recently he called on the druggist
and requested him to have prepared
for him a box Of the cigars. After a
few days, not having received them,
he wrote a note inquiring as to the
cause of the ~inattention and received
word in reply that the medicated
stogies had been sent to his office sew
eral days before.

TIME FOR LIGHTER FOODS.
With the Warmer Weather Put Away
the Winter Dishes.

When children are dull in the
morning, and no n feels like break
fast and all complain of spring
fever" it is a sign that it is time to
draw a line on the winter foods. Put
on your thinking cap. Put aside
every possible article of diet that was
or the table of yesterday and begin
afresh on lighter foods. If it has
been oat meal %porridge, sausage, eggs,
pancakes and toast, forget them and
begin somewhat after this fashion:
Grape fruit or fresh rhubarb sauce,
crisp, thin toast and pop-overs, with
perhaps ribbons of very thinly sliced
bacon. Let the breakfast food go for
awhile, and do not mix sour grape
fruit or rheubarb with fresh milk.
Young radishes and young green on
ions are in the market, and a plate
of lettuce sandwiches, with coffee,
will spur the tagging appetite.
