LATE WEAKNESS IN CORN

Chicago, Feb. 19.-Trade in wheat
at the opening today was dull, and the
market was steady. May opened at
1875 to 1y141 s, and on moderate real
izing, dropped to 1.13&@113A. The
market was bearishly affected by o.
fetal statistics on shipments of wheat
during the week, from Argentina,
which showed q. larger movement than
had been estimated. This factor, how
ever, was nearly offset by unofficial
figures on the weeks movement from
Australia which made the total exports
nearly 100000 bushels less than had
been estimated. Commission houses
with northwestern connections, sold
moderately and large part of the Of
ferings were taken by leading bull.
Minneapolis. Duluth and Chicago re-
ceipts were 1922 cars.
Later the market broke from it's
bearish mornings and quickly jumped
to 1.15A, on buying by influential
bulls. The market was nervous the
remainder of the day. May closed IN

Corn.

A Turbine Harnes.ed 10 Ocean Wave.

A wave motor, the revolving portion
of which resembles a turbine in con-
struction and effect, has been installed
at the end of a 1,150 foot pier at At
lantic City to generate electricity for
the light and power used upon the pier,
says the February number Of Popular
Mechanics in an illustrated article.
The motor is claimed to be the first
practical commercial application of the
irregular but powerful motion of the
ocean for the development of electrical
power. The motors, OF which there are
two. rest on sea floor twelve feet
under the water.

Chicago, Feb. 19-Cattle - Both
steers and butcher grades were steady.
Packers and buyers looked very little
at either kind, but as receipts were
light, sellers Were able to find chan
nels for fair clearance Prices are clos
ing 15@25 lower than a\week ago.
The small spread In prices of late, as
against the big difference in quality,
is due to the discrimination of the
killers against good quality steers of
late, prices for the better grades be-
ing lowered proportionately much
swifter than the lower-priced kinds.
The trade is coming to the belief that
the better grade steers have about hit
bottom at last, but still there is moth
ing in the situation at present. which
points to prospects for material i'm

Hogs.
Hogs We're little better in price
than yesterday. Shippers made an early
market, Packers came in later and the
close was at about the best of the day.
Trade was not very active.
Supply in the west this week shows
a heavy gain over last week, and the
run here shows a gain of about 10000
over last week, and is so 1000 more than
came a year ago. February receipts
to date, however, show a loss Of 10000,
compared with the same period last
week.

STATE LAND REGIS
TER FOR HUMBOLDT

Upon his return to town last even
ing after and absence of several weeks,
surveying in the northern part of the
county, County Surveyor Sheldon was
appraised of his appointment as
Dputy State Land Register. The ap-
pointment was made by C. L. Deadly,
state land register and surveyor gen
eral
The duties of the new office will
consist of passing on all applications
for lands under the Carey act. The
appointment of Mr. Sheldon to this
responsible position will doubtless
prove of great convenience to citizens
of Humboldt county, who will now be
enabled to transact their business at
home instead of being compelled to
visit the state capital.

WINNEMUCCA BECOMING
NOTED AS WINTER RESORT

One morning the first of the week at
Elko, to the east of us, and Lovelock,
to the southwest, the thermometer reg
istered 16 degrees below zero. At the
same time Winnemucca instruments
showed the temperature to be IL de-
grees above. The only seasonable So
luton of the mystery is that the Japan
current, in ascending the Humboldt,
got stuck at the bridge, or the
phenomenon may have possibly been
due to the fact that Winnemucca has a
United States weather bureau which
exercises its influence with old Bore
alis.
1t is the general impression that this
morning was the coldest of the season.
This, however, is a mistake. At a. m.
the thermometer registered 9h, while
on the morning of the 4th or 5th of
the present month it stood at 71a.

SANFORD DODGE AT THE
NIXON TUESDAY EVENING

Sanford Dodge, who appears in
/" Nero. the Gladiator at the Nixon
opera house Tuesday evening, Decem-
ber 2l, brings himself forward true
artist-by his clever stage management
of one detail in the play if in no other.
That is the scene in the Pagan Temple
in the third act.
When Mr.. Dodge first received the
manuscript of the play the words were
all there complete, but there was no
directness as to "business or s'prop-
critics" of the ancient Roman marriage
celebration.
The ritual of the ceremonial is no
poetic invention as given by Mr..
Dodge, but an inspiration of the theme
an inspiration backed with knowl-
edge. just as Mr.. Dodge went to
Italy to study the architecture of the
old Roman days, so he delved into
the depths of Roman literature before
attempting to realize that scene. For
months he searched and he was almost
in despair when excelsior!-he came
across the volume that he most needed
and desired.
He found tucked away in a secure
corner of the archives of the Vatican
in Rome, little piece of parchment,
almost undecipherable. For days he
bent over it, for, even though Latin
scholar, there was a great deal in it
that was obsolete and worn. All things
turned out for the best, however, and
at last he was the eonqueror, and he
left Rome with very fair knowledge
of the Pagan ceremony which he had
almost despaired of learning.
That ceremony, with its mockery of
God as we know him, with its ignorant
superstitions, will be seen at the Nixon
opera house next Tuesday night. Seats
on sale at Krenkel & Bosch's

M'DFRM|TT A
LIVELY Town

Recently Fred J. Palmer, the mer-
chant, banker and capitalist stock
man, and J. B. Duncan, who also has
large business in Jordan Valley in
stock, land and other investments, the
two gentlemen being among the fore
most and enterprising citizens of this
section, paid business visit to Nc
Dermitt, Nevada, in Mr.. Palmer's large
touring ear.
The gentlemen had a pretty rough
trip of it, the heavy rains at the time
placing the roads in very bad con-
dition for travel. However, they sue
ceeded in reaching McDermitt, distant
from Jordan Valley over 100 miles, in
two days and only punctured two tires
en- route. Returning the roads were in
ieven worse condition and they were
three days arriving home, being COM
PEELED to leave the machine at the
home of Mrs. M. E. Beers and COM
my Ou III buRSys
In conversation with Mr.. Palmer
he informed us that the McDermitt
country was in flourishing condition
and the people all prosperous. The
green grass on the desert, he said,
was about four inches high and stock
of all kinds were sleek and fat and
in prime condition to go through the
winter. The resources Of that section
are cattle, horses and sheep, and large
hay ranches from which are cut an
nually thousands of tons of wild hay.
Mr.. Palmer is president of the Quinn
River bank at McDermitt. This institu-
tion was incorporated December Is,
1908, with capital stock Of $4,000
and opened for business June Is, 1909.
The deposits at the present time, after
being in business little over five
months, amount to $4,000. The off,
GERS are: Fred J. Palmer, president;
John Vance, vice-president; F. r.
Sprague, cashier; Fred J. Palmer, John
Vance, Robert Wilkerson, Jerry Hern,
W. o. Baber, directors. The bank oc-
cupies quarters in its own building
which was erected with view to the
accommodation Of patrons and in ia
cilitating the banking business. It's
eonveniences are modern and the bank
ing fixtures and furniture are far ahead
of most banks to be found in the in
terror and even among many on the
railroad.
Aside from the bank the town OF
McDermitt has three general mer-
chandise stores, two hotels with good
accommodations two saloons, black
smith and wheelwright shop and two
livery and feed stables.-Jordan Val

MID-YEAR EXAMINATION
AT THE PUBLIC SCHOOL

The eighth grade pupils crossed
swords with good stiff mid-year ex-
animation on Wednesday, Thursday
and Friday of this week. This exami-
nation was given so that the class
might see just where it stood and what
would be expected in order to prepare
for the final state examination in the
spring. AS a state diploma of gradua-
ton is required before any may enter
the high school the class is determined
to buckle into the harness in order to
secure the much coveted bit of parch-
ment at the close of the school year.

PERHAPS THE EDITOR
HAS A BLUSH COMING

Senator Nixon thinks the people of
Nevada ought to be happy because
they are compelled to pay tribute to
the eastern manufacturers of woolen
goods The wooden schedule is one of
the most iniquitous in the tariff bill,
and Senator Nixon voted for it. 1t
should make the Senator blush every
time he looks one of his constituents
who owns no sheep, in the face.-Elko
Independent.
1t seems almost incredible that q
paragraph of this kind could work
itself into a Nevada newspaper. With
wool back to five cents per pound and
sheep selling at so cents head, it is
probable the sheep would be blushing
at the assininity of certain editors.
