Big Crowd Enjoy Exciting Sport

Al Mattley and John Frazier and
was the most exiting event of the
day. Frazier was considerable the
the heavier of the two, but never
theless the first two rounds were
very even. They clinched frequent

body blows were delivered by both.
In the third Al got his chin in the
direct path of pile-driver blow
and was elevated to point near
the milky way. In the fourth and

gong they mixed things at a hot
pace and as result more stars ap-
peared on the BARRIERS horizon

James Carr and Ralph Prouty
hotfooted into the ring, doned the
mits and in an instant were in the
center of the mat ready for the
fray. They displayed any amount

boxers. 1t took five rounds to
pick Prouty at the winner.
Henry Berning was substituted

They put up good exhibition at
the end OF which Smith swas Civ, n

LOTS OF SNOW
AND RAIN

During the past two weeks Al
unusual amount of rain and
snow has fallen in this Nallef
while the mountains are buried
under heavy depth of snow
The indications are that nature's
way OF storing water to give life
TO vegetation in the Valleys be-
low, Is quite ahead of the artificial
way, at least ! during favo ale
season of which 1909 will be
numbered with.
The rain fall in this section for
the past two or three years has
been much greater than perceeding
years, which naturally gives rise
To the question ''is our climate
changing" TO some extent, it has
no doubt, but still the present
winter holds the cold weather
record for the past thirty years

cal condition supposed to be so
noticeable.

Last Sunday afternoon about
two hundred of the male population
OF this Valley gathered at Valhalla
Hall to witness the boxing ex-
hibition given by the members of
the local athletic club. Gene
Phillips acted as referee while Geo.
Hussman and Thos. West were
chosen as judges.
Clarence Bigelow and Andy
Fabbri were the first to enter the
roped arena and after listening TO
the referees instructions, took their
corner, a second later the gladia-
tors were at it. Bigelow was the
more clever of the two but
by no means the hardest hitter.
Some good punches were exchang-
ed at at the end of the fourth ii was
declared draw and another round
ordered to arrive at ~ deeis on,
Bigelow came up the weaker Of the
two and the greater strength Of bis
opponent was too much for the
frey little boxer to ovs rcome and
at the end of the fifth Fabbri was
announced the winner.
The second bout was between
Chas. Larson and Lloyd Jones,
fenlherweight OF the club The
boys showed themselves TO he very
clever with the gloves. the little
fellows sparring for points with
true professional style. At the

VIII Divide L0r6eSf
County i'm the Il. s.

The Lincoln county division bill,
providing for a division of that
county and creating the Clark
county out of that portion lying
south of the third standard parall.
ell south, will shortly be introduced
by the Lincoln county delegation
to the state Legislature says the
News. The new county will be
named in honor of Senator W. A.
Clark, the pioneer railroad builder
in Southern Nevada At the re-
cent election both political con-
ventions pledged their nominees to
the division movemeft and the en-
tire delegation is united in sup
port of the measure. In addition
to this, petition has been pre-
pared containing the signatures OF
a majority of the resident tax
payers OF Lincoln county.
Lincoln county today is perhaps
the largest county in the United
States. Its extensive length is 25S
miles, its extensive width 100 miles
and its area, 1904 square miles.
1t is claimed that the ex-
pense OF transacting civil and
criminal business over so vast an
area Is enormous and a severe
handicap to the financial welfare
OF the country.
The proposed division is prob
ably one of the most equitable
ever proposed, both in area, rail
road mileage, population, assessed

valuation and voting strength. As
divided Lincoln county will con-
tain 1886 square miles and Clark
S,20S suqare miles. Lincoln will
have 1873 of railroad, valued at$1,-
322, sos and Clark LIS miles valu-
ed at $1,719,440 The assessed
valuation of Lincoln county has
quadrupled since 1904 and each
new county will have a higher
valuation than Douglas, Eureka,
Lander, Ormsby or Storey.
Since 1906 the registered voters
OF Lincoln county have increased
80 per cent and the total vote
polled has increased 100 per cent.
This will be divided very nearly
even between the two counties as
as proposed.
Owing to the great decrease in
the amount OF work developing up
on the county officials it is figured
that the two counties can be mana
ged at but a slight increase over
the present cost, and that saving
in civil and criminal business, the
care of sick and indigont, and the
improvement of many other at
present deplorable condition, will
shortly result in a big saving to
taxpayers both north and south OF
the dividing line, and enable the
territory now comprising Lincoln
county to move readily and liqui-
date its bonded Indebtedness.

Farmers Reap
Stupendous
Crops.

The value of all farm products
Of 1908, in the United States, is
S7,77s,0O0, 900, according TO the re-
cent annual report of Secretary OF
Agriculture. This stupendous total
is not only the greatest in the
nations history, but is also nearly
three hundred million dollars more
than thai of 1907. During the
last ten years we have raised the
inconceivable sum of sixty billion
dollars worth of produce on the
farms OF the United States. The
corn which grew last summer dur
ing four months would, if it were
not being devoted to better pur-
poses, pay the interest bearing
debt of the Uuited States, Dig the
Panama Canal, and buy fifty
battIe-ships. The other leading
uroduets in order of value are cot
ton, hay, wheat, oats, and other
cereals, sugar, potatoes tobacco,
hops.

Wilson's report without feeling
of pride in the stupendous extent

GRAND JURY
finds TRUE BILL

Last Friday the Douglas County
Grand Jury met at Genoa for the
purpose of examining into the case
against Charley Kaiser, the Indian
bound over by Justice Ezell to a.
wait the action of that body.
Sufficient evidence was intro
duced to cause a true bill to be
rendered against the Indian and
he will be tried for his life in the
district court.
1t will be remembered that the
Indian shot his mahalla to death
on the streets of Gardnerville some
weeks ago in supposed fit Of
jealousy.

the following interesting article TO the
Louisiana Planter OF May q:
Iafourehe Crossing P. o., April 20, 1909.
The Cast agnos Cane Loader Co., Donaldsonv1lle:
Gentlemen:-In regard to the gasoline cane
loader that we bought of you last season we can
say that it has given us entire satisfaction ana
we used it the whole season. In tWentyton
cane we loaded from 225 to $50 tons easily. We
think this is the best loader on the market and
We want three more fo1 the coming season.

The letter reproduced herewith is
from one Of the largest, progressive
and best known planting firms in Lou
isiana. With such endorsements as
this we have christened cur new gas
oline power loader The Triumph
Loader. When we first started 10
/ business it was under the most trying
circumstances. Some eight or ten diff
ferent makes of leaders had been put
on the market and sold to planters.
Owing to Incorrect principles aud
bad construction in most cases they
we're thrown aside in the scrap pile,
i and purchasers in almost every case
when the question of new loader was
mentioned were from Missouri and
lad to be shown. We were confident
that the principle of our loader was
j correct and on the strength OF this
confidence we dubbed our loader the
only loader
1--WE went ahead. built small fac
Etory, equipped it with machinery and
| started building leaders. We soon
discovered some weak places, made
some changes and from time TO time
! have improved our loader, enlarged
8 our factory, installed more machinery,
until today we have little competition
/ in the building of cane leaders. This
four years of building eauo leaders
and doing nothing else has made US

. supervision of that splendid inventor
and mechanic, ]. B. gastagnos, as
SISTED by a. tr aimed crew of men, we
are more than eyer better prepared to

Short Calendar Day in Superior Court Accomplishes No Other Matrimonial

For the first time within the mem ory of the county court attaches there was not a divorce granted in the Su- perior court on the short calendar day. There were four cases on the list. only one of which came up. only to be con- tinued.
 Enrich Martus of this city sought to be freed from his wife, Dorota Mar tus, of Hungary. alleging infidelity. The plaintiff testified that he was mar ried in 1904 and came to this country the following year. and now resides at come with him. but he expected to earn enough money within a short time either to go back to the old coun- try or bring his family over here. children have been born to his wife. The plaintiff is willing to acknowledge the percentage of the first born, but not of the second There was presented as evidence some letters from the de- 'fendent to her husband. The court wanted a proper translation of these letters. and so held up the case.
 The second case on the list was that of Mary Varga against Ambrus Varga. but that marital tie has been severed more completely than a court could do. Since the institution of the suit the defendant has died, but according to law the case must be called
 The third case was that of Jean F.. Wood. a nurse of Stamford. against Frederick P. Wood. a cotton broker of New York. This case was before the court last May. but was dismissed as the evidence was not strong enough. It was a runaway match of a nurse with a wealthy New Yorker. which ing on the ground of intolerable cruel ty, as before.
