night TRAIN FOR
SOUTHERN CITIES

The Carson City Appeal of Satur-
day evening has the following in re-
gard to the night train service fof
this section, which will undoubtedly
be put into service in the near future:
At public hearing of the railroad
commission, held June A, 1909, per-
sonally appeared E. c. Manson, SUI
perintendent of the Salt Lake di-
vision of the Southern Pacific COM
pany; A. M. Ardery, superintendent
of the Virginia and Truckee railway,
and H. R. Hanlin, general superin-
tendent of the Tonopah and Gold
field railroad, in response to a re-
quest of the railroad commission to
appear and consider the change of
time of train "a out of San Fran
cisco to Goldfield; train 23 out of
Goldfie1d to Reno and providing for
local passenger service between
Reno, Wadsworth and Fallon, and
between Reno, Carson City, Mound
House, Dayton, Wabuska and Yering-
ton.
The commission submitted the FL.
lowing schedule, which it requested
the representatives of the railroads
to put into effect:
Train "a to leave Oakland pier at
$40 a. m, instead of lilo a. M, ar
irving at Reno p. M, instead of

HAS Big COUGAR
FOR PASSENGER

SPOKANE (Wash.), June T.
Grant Turnbull, stage driver, oper-
ating between Newport and Elk,
Washington, had an experience with
a full-grown cougar which he will not
forget for some time. While driving
along the narrow mountain road
near Rogers Pass his horses became
frightened and bolted. The driver
managed by sheer fortune to keep
the wheels of the coach in the ruts.
and after the horses had expended
their energy he made an investiga-
tion Perched in the rear of the
coach was ferocious cougar. Be-
fore the animal could spring on him,
Turnbull used the butt of his heavy
whip, but the big cat leaped over his
head and disappeared in the timber

the present connection with train No.
% out of Reno.
The commission further requested
that trains 23 and "a meet at
Thorne in order that stage connec-
lions from Lucky Boy and Hawthorne
may be made by the one trip.
This action of the commission was
taken upon the representation of the
people of southern Nevada by petit
tion asking that the changes into and
out of Tonopah and Goldfield be
made. In making the changes the
commission also took into considera-
ton the desirability of establishing
through passenger, mail, baggage and
express service from Las Vegas and
Rhyolite territory to Carson City,
Reno and California points. The
different roads were agreeable to
the commissions plan of adjustment
and advised that same would be put
| into effect as soon as approved by
their general managers. 1t is, of
course, to be understood that in max
ing the adjustment above outlined it
may be necessary for the railroads to
depart slightly, that is to say, to the
extent of few minutes, from the
times of arrival and departure there
in named.

Refuses to Turn
Over Names of
Subscribers

We have been appointed TonOpah
agents for the San Francisco Exami-
ner, but for some unknown reason
the former agent has refused to turn
over to us the subscription lists. I'M
der the. conditions we have to ask all
subscribers to call at our store or
telephone to us your name and adj
dress, and the paper will be deliver
ed. While it will be slight incOn-
venience we ask you to kindly over
look the fact for the delay was no
fault of ours.
Numerous stories have been cir
culated around this city as to the
reasons that the agency was changed.
To correct this, and also for your
own information, we respectfully ask
you to write the manager Of the San
Francisco Examiner, where you can
find the true cause.
We also have the agency for the
San Francisco Chronicle and the Los
Angeles Examiner, and have been
awarded the handling OF these papers
on merit and merit alone. When this
firm started in business four years
ago, the capital resembled shoe
string. Honesty has been our policy
and today we have the most complete
stationery emporium in the state of
Nevada.
The secret of our success is in the
manner with which we pay our bills,
securing discount which allows us
to sell goods at price lower than
any other stationery house in this
city. All the agency lines we handle
we have secured on our merits and
during the history of this firm we
have the first agency to be taken
away from us.

TIE
General Demand

of the Well Informed of the World has
always been for simple, pleasant and
efficient liquid laxative remedy of known
value; laxative which physicians could
sanction for family use because its COM
ponent parts are known to them to be
wholesome and truly beneficial in effect,
acceptable to the system and gentle, yet
prompt, in action.
In supplying that demand with its ex-
cellent combination of Syrup of Figs and
Elixir of SIENNA, the California Fig Syrup
Co. proceeds along ethical lines and relies
on the merits of the laxative for its remark
able success.
That is one of many reasons why
Syrup of Figs and Elixir of SIENNA is given
the preference by the Well Informed.
To get its beneficial effects always buy
the genuine-manufactured by the Cali
fornia Fig Syrup Co, only, and for sale
by all leading druggists. Price fifty cents
per bottle.

Mr.. E. V. Wilcox. Director of the

ton, has received the following report
upon samples of rubber sent to Seig-
mund. Robinow & Sohn of Hamburg,
Germany. These samples were the
product of the experimental tappings
at Nahikp. The valuation placed upon
the better grades is equal to the price
now being paid for the best plantation

mail by William Williamson. President
of the Hawaiian-A American Rubber Co.,

Especial Correspondence.)

SEATTLE, Wash, July Hawaii S
delegation at the Alaska Yukon-Paeifc
Exposition entertained last evening, in
formally, a party of some three hun
dred, made up of the directors and
other officials of the Exposition, and
their ladies' The affair was in the
nature of first view of the Bo-
nine motion pictures, and was an I'M
qualified success in every way. The
pictures were shown in the Govern
ment biograph room, which is in the
Hawaiian building, and following these,
Hawaiian pineapples, bananas, man
goes, and other refreshments were
served in the main building. OF the
various official functions which have
been held in the grounds since the big
show opened, this first reception by the
Hawaiian contingent was one of the
most thoroughly enjoyed of any.
After the guests had assembled the
pictures were shown with splendid eff
feet, and aroused unbounded enthus-
iasm. 1t is certain that there is not
another such collection of pictures on
the grounds, considered either from the
standpoint of uniqueness or artlstic
worth. Today a great many compli-
mentary comments have been heard
relative to the pictures, and there is
every reason TO believe that they will
make great hit with the general pub
lie when it becomes generally known
that they are on exhibition.
During the intermissions between the
films, Kaai S boys sang, assisted by
Mrs. Charles Siemsen, Miss Miriam
Mundon, and Miss Keala Kaai, as well
as later in the evening, and were much
appreciated. The singers We're all

David's funeral and their own music,

caterer. Commissioner and Mrs. "A f.
knudsen, Special Agent Lloyd ChiIds,
aud the other members of the Hawa-
liam delegation were deluged with
words of appreciation at the close of
the evening, which were much more
ELUSIVE than mere politeness called
for.
There Is one thing about the Alaska
Yukon-Pacifc Exposition which is
especially pleasing, and that is the
spirit of friendliness and cordialitv
which pervades the entire official cir
Gle, including the management of all
the various state and county buildings
There is no undercurrent of unpleasant
rivalry or jealousy observable, such as
has inarred the pleasure of some of the
previous great expositions of the coun-
try, but ON the contrary everybody
seems willing and anxious to go out
of his way to be of assistance to his
neighbor. This feature has been espec-
tally observable in the delightful little
social affairs W eh are of fro

Boise win Draw Much Cash From

Rivals
Ada county went wet yesterday
by a majority of over 500 votes. out
of total poled of over $500 votes.
This victory is very decisive as the
prohibition forces had put forth
every effort to win. It was expected
that the vets would win-at least,
they claimed the county-but not by
such heavy majority.
The result is gratifying to the pro-
gressives of Boise. who dreaded the
effect that dry victory would have
had upon the business and growth of
the capital
Nampa and Caldwell, that are only
about an hour away from Boise by
trolley or interurban lines, being
dry, will loose much money to Boise
$50 much, indeed. that they may
endeavor to have another election,
at the earliest moment allowed by
the law, to vote themselves wet
Unless this is done the rapid
growth of both the places will be
greatly retarded Had Boise like
wise voted dry neither city would
have had any advantage over the
other in this respect.-wood River
