ventions of people who have met here
for various purposes, but to my mind
none have followed higher avocations
in more important work than these as
sembled here might.
'It may be that the teachers often
feel that his Or her life work is not
appreciated, and viewing it from a
monetary standpoint this is but too
true, but the most enduring work is
character building, rather than fortune
building, and whether you have done
your work We'll or not will be shown
by the children of today when they
become men and women Of tomorrow
If they are failures your work will
have been, indeed, vain; but if they
shall stand forth as men and women
of grand and noble character, you will
largely be entitled to the credit for it
and you can feel that your work has
been well repaid.
Il trust your deliberations while in
this city will be fruitful of much
good"
Superintendent Jones Of the city
schools welcomed the visitors in be-
half of the city schools. He said in
part: I'VE have a fair city to well

chief factor. We are proud of our pri-

stress upon the intellectual attachments

For the STATE Of Oregon, Superin-

briefly. He pointed out that the world
was demanding more of the schools

JEFF eRINs AT PROPOSED MILL
Former Champion Will Not Be Elk
cited Over Johnson-k Kaufman
E;ob&

NEW YORK, April S-Jim Jeffries
grinaed today when he heard that Jack
Joh-~,r peeved because he could not
get a ~atch at once with the big
white champion. had decided to take
on All Kaufman for battle to be fought
on the Pacific coast some time this
summer.
Jeff refused to discuss the proposed
battle. but fight fans here remembered
his attitude toward Kaufman before
coming east At that time Al an
nounced himself as willing to meet
Jeffries. but the big fellow refused to
take the challenge seriously, advising
the ambitious youth to spend few
more years in the ring school before
anga cling to take himself seriously.
Stanley Ketchel was the first man
to cover Johnson's $4,000 forfeit, but
the negro would not consider fight
with him on the ground that ne was
too light. Kaufman had been talking
fight, but for some time failed to post
his money Now that it is up Johnson
declares he will take the Californian
on and has gone so far as to declare
that Kaufman is the most likely con-
tender for the title. This is regarded
by the fans as play for advertising
and a futile attempt to excite Jeffries
and force him to reenter the ring be-
fore he gets into proper shape.
There is little chance of this being
successful as Jeffries not only has his
theatrical dates to FILL but is noted
.or mis- ability to keep his head. He
has declared positively that he Will
not reenter the ring unless he can re-
gain his old time form and it is gen.
orally believed that his determination
will remain mistaken.
Some doubt is expressed as to wheth-
err a Johnson-Kaufman battle will ever
be fought, unless the negro should be
decisively defeated by Jeffries. Kauf-
man has been known to suffer from
"cold feet in the past and his chal-
lenge is regarded in some quarters as
being a monumental bluff.

It is claimed that there was that much

OVERHEATED
STOVE CAUSES
SMALL FIRE
DISCOVERED BEFORE
THEY HAD MADE ANY
HEADWAY.

The hanging of dish clothes near
an over-heated stove in the residence
of John Dolan was the cause of the
fire department being called out DUR
ing the noon hour yesterday. The
cloths smouldered for some time and
the amount of smoke that issued
from the house led a passerby to be-
lieve the interior was a mass of
flames The department responded
promptly but fortunately was not
needed as an Investigation revealed
the cause of the smoke. Had the
discovery not been made at the time
it was serious fire might have re-
suited.
When the alarm was sounded the
fire wagon was in the repair shop,
but the hose had been transferred to
an express wagon in case of an emer-
gency, and it was this apparatus that
responded.

Dog CATCHER
Starts WAR ON
ALL CANNES
AND HE Will SOON BE THE
MOST CUSSED MAN IN
TONOPAH.

Jackson Rhines, who was officially
appointed dog catcher of this town
ship, will take up the duties of his
Office today. From now on a relent-
less war will be waged on all owner
less CANNES and the streets of Tono-
pah will be rid of the pests that are
rapidly becoming a nuisance. The
dogs without owners now roaming at
large will number over a hundred at
the present, but within week it is
believed they will be a scarce article.
Mr.. Rhines has made his head
quarters in the chief of police office,
where licenses can be secured. The
pound will be on the upper end of
Florence avenue above the garage.
So if you miss your favorite bow
WOW today, it will be a safe bet to
say he is in the hands of the enemy,
where he will remain until the tax is
paid.

OF
TELEPHONE line
MAY SOON START
THE NEVADA TELEPHONE-TELE
GRAPH COMPANY CONSID-
ERING PLANS.

The plans for constructing the
telephone line from Reno to Ely via
Tonopah are fast nearing completion.
General Manager F. G. Waterhouse
of the Nevada Telephone-Telegraph
company leaves this morning for
Reno and the coast on matters rel
alive to the construction of the new

when he returns, the work of build
ing win be started.
The line will start from Reno and
will place in direct communication
Virginia City, Dayton, Carson, YER
ington, Schurz, Rawhide, Luning,
Nina and Tonopah. From here the
wire will connect with Typo, Reveille,
Golden Arrow, Hot Springs and all
the districts between Tonopah and
Ely.
The wires will also be used in con-
junction with the Postal Telegraph
company which is spreading out in
an endeavor to make connections
with every Nevada town.
The construction of the line is es-
timated at $25O,OOO and over 400
miles of wire will have to be strung.
The undertaking is a gigantic one
and is of such a nature that the en-
tire section will derive vast amount
of benefit from.
