Washington Is a magnificent city.

Lord Northcline, to designate the

had forgotten because they are so near

Especially does the reference TO the
original intentions of those who laid
plans for a great city apply to the u

Specifically. il has created an active
market for local real properties. for

1t was a more active week, perhaps
than the similar preceding period. and
Ike that week its principal feature
was the number of small deals.
These transactions included proper
ties bought principally for investment.
IN which are included those which were
bought for occupancy by the pur-
chasers. There were few large deals,
but the lack Of these was more than
offset by the bringing into the city
OF more buyers resident in other cities.

NOTICE TO THE FIRE LADIES.

At the regular meeting of the vol
unteer fire department held last
evening the matter of the September
assessment of 81 levied against each
laddie, to assist in augmenting the
gymnasium fund was gone into and
the secretary reported that quite a
number of the members had failed to
respond to his notices. This no doubt
Is due to oversight ON the part of the
boys and 1t Is requested that each
member make payment on or before
the fifteenth Of the present month, as
1t is the intention Of the department
to publish on this date in both local
papers the names Of all volunteers
who have paid the assessment.
1t is hoped that full roll may be
published so as to present to the citi-
zens of Tonopah an undivided proof
of the organizations earnestness in
the building Of a permanent home,
not to speak of their unselfishness in
agreeing to this assessment, Will
in itself, amounts to magnanimity q
their part, as it was hoped that 80
gymnasium could be built by popular
subscription alone.
JOHN r. SCHMIDT, Secretary.

and stated that he could find no sign
of blow where Woods said that he
had been struck And if the blow
had been struck there it is the gem
eral consensus of opinion that it
would have been seen, on account of
having to be so low.
The fans all over town are sore as
sore can be, and declare that the
game might as well be stopped here
better be stopped than to pull off
any more such rank fakes.
Early this morning the Bonanza
learned that prior to the fight Woods
had declined to fight unless he could
be assured that he would cash on
bets aggregating about 5000, which
he and some of his friends had up;
that he would win. This news was
brought to Terry Mustain while he
was in the ring, and he said: "Any-
thing to get Woods in the ring with
me. Then, with the fight assured
Terry went in for his man with the
intention of winning anyway, and
passing one over on Woods and his
friends. Then, it seems, Woods saw
he was going to have fight on his
hands, and he just quit, although he
had been considerably damaged by
Terry's short-arm body punches in
the clinches.
