Burns Again
a Victor

Tommy Burns, the American heavy
weight, knocked out Jewey Smith,
the South African boxer, at Paris
Saturday night in the fifth round.
The meeting of Burns and Smith was
the biggest affair of the kind Paris
has ever seen, and great prices were
paid for seats by hundreds who saw
the one sided fight. Burns had
Smith at his mercy from the start
In the fifth he decided to end the af-
fair and landed terrific right on
the jaw, putting Smith ont. A panic
was caused at the end of the third
round by an explosion of the picture
machine apparatus, the decorations
being set on fire. The fire was quick
ly extinguished, without great damage.

never decided to let the matter rest

THE BUILDING OF THE
GOVERNORS MANSION
Commissioners Ryan and Doug
lass State Their Stand in
the Matter. They
Favor It

AS result of the article which ap-
peared in the Appeal of last Friday
evening there has been considerable
talk in regard to the building of the
Governors mansion in Carson City.
A representative of the Appeal
called on two of the members of the
Capitol Commissioners today, Messrs.
Ryan and Douglass and they have the
following to say regarding the biuld-
ing of the ansion in Carson City:
We have at no time opposed the
erection of the mansion for the pur-
pose of keeping it ayaw from Car
son City.
In making the price of the build
ing Of the mansion we deferred to
the wish of Governor Sparks who was
Of the opinion that $4,000 was suffi =
cient for the building of the mansion
and the remaining $4,000 of the ap-
preparation would furnish the build
ing in suitable manner
For this reason the architect who
drew the design submitted plans that
in his opinion could be executed for
S25 900. Bids were then called for
and on the first call none were re-
ceived. A second call was made with
the result that four bids came in
The lowest was for s3s.0oo and the
highest SAL 900 AS the specifica =
tions called for $25 900 building the
board could not see their way clear
to allow the bid for that amount.

BREWERY is

Cash Register Emptied
But Slot Machine
Proves too Much

Sometime during last night the Car

what change that remained IN the
cash register for the day man who
opens the saloon was taken. little
over four dollars was the extent OF
reward for he ROBBERS trouble.
The slot machine was broken open
and the work was evidently done by
the same man that broke into the
brewery a few months ago as, like on
the former occasion, he failed to get
the coin out of the machine, and after
making a futile attempt to get the
bank roll he placed the back of the
lDnachine in place and by pushing it
against the wall held it there.
The man or men gained their en-
trance to the place in the same man
ner as on the previous occasion; by
breaking the window in the side door
thrusting their hand through the
opening and shooting t he bolt.
The party is evidently novice OF
he could have easily tapped the SLOT
machine for over $50, which amount
was found intact when the machine
was exained by Louie Tignani ant

the robbery was discovered this morr

Rawhide has a new rival in the

from spot OF desert to a town of over
500 people and hundreds are rushing
to the new town from all sections.

Yesterdays
Ball Game

A good crowd attended the bali

Mud Hens. The game was good
one from start to finish and the Old
Reliables were taught a few tricks by
the young "paddlers" and We're shown
that they were distinctly out of the
running when it came to registering
the final score. At the end of the
ninth inning the score showed in favor
of the Mud Hens by one run. Six to
five was the result of the game.
Colonel Billy Beals did everything
possible to get his men around the
diamond at the required speed and
after a glance at the final score
claimed that he had been 'trowei

day he is deeply engrossed on plan
