UlAR STYLE,

ULAR STYLE.
The latest in the way of educa-
tional and social gatherings is the
Pianola club. where several music
lovers meet to study the works Of
the great masters. There is no
better way imaginable than by use
of the Pianola Piano. 1t gives a
perfect Interpretation and allows
the unframed performer the priv.
ilege of personally producing the
music and playing it over and over
until the difficult passages become
entirely clear and fixed in the
mind. The Pianola Piano has done
more to create appreciatiye music
lovers and give unstudied people
an understanding of great music
than any artist who ever lived.
iNFRiNGEMENTs ON PIANoLA
PATENT.
Recent achievements of the
Pianola Piano have made dealers
handling other player pianos more
envious than ever Of its increasing
popularity. Some have used the
name "Pianola" to further the sale
of their own instruments and are
liable to prosecution by the
Aeolian company, who are the
builders and patentees of the orig
inal and genuine Pianola and Plan,
ola Piano-sold in Spokane only
by Eilers Piano House.
For instance, a certain dealer adj
vertised "Pianolas at $780," and
four people who Investigated found
that he had no Pianola, but tried
to persuade them to buy Apollos
and other instruments as a substi-
tute. These attempts are usually
unsuccessful because the majority
of people know that the Pianola,
with Metrotyle and Themodist,
costs $500 whether In New York
City or San Francisco; and. furth-
ermore. anyone that can really ap-
preciate artistic playing can read
lily see the difference between the
genuine Pianola and any imitation
on the market.
PIANoLA PIANOS MOST POP
UlAR.
The Pianola Piano, combining
Pianola and piano in one case, is
the popular form of the player. and
many homes are exchanging their
old piano and Pianola for Pianola
Pianos. The used Pianolas we
take In exchange are being sold at
| 500 to 5000, according to the style
and the usage they have had. All
are put in frst class playing con
dition and guaranteed by Eilers
Piano House.
The Pianola Is installed only in
four different makes of pianos, all
manufactured by the Aeolian com.
pany. each one magnificent in
strument and a credit to the Plan
ola. They are the Weber, Steck,
Wheelock and Stuyvesant.

RECORDS BROUGHT
FROM FORMER
COUNTY SEAT
COUNTY COMMISSIONER HUM
PHREYS ARRIVES WITH
OLD RECORDS.

County Commissioner C. w. Hum
phreys arrived in Tonopah yesterday
morning from Belmont. Accompany
ing Mr.. Humphreys were the last of
the records that have remained in
the former county seat up to the
present time. The records filled sew
eral boxes and will be used in case
before the district court that will be
shortly tried and mention of which
is made in another column.
Mr.. Humphrey is one of the Pho
neer residents of Nye county, having
come here in the early sixties. He
was a resident of Belmont in the
good old days when that camp was in
the heyday of it's fame and wonder
full production and when those that
would look upon wine when it was
red would have to pay therefore at
the rate of 25c per glass. 1t was
fitting, therefore, that one who saw
the town in it's best and it's worst
days should be selected to bring the
last vestige of times that were to
the camp where times are.
Old Belmont is fading away. The
remnant that has fingered through
the years following the decline of the
camp, are not living in the present;
they are dwelling in the past. Withal,
they are firm in the belief that some
day the old village will take on the
airs of it's former self Let us all
hope so.
Belmont is not without history.
Like the camps of other days it had
it's ups and downs. There dwelled
within it's confines as good class of
men as ever trod the footstool OF
God and as tough a bunch as ever
drew a gun that barked. 1t was
there that two men were hanged in
the county Jail one winter morning
and whose blood stains still besmirch
the wall-mute evidences of trav-
esty upon justice.
The old court house still stands
but within its walls no more the
stern hand of the law will mete on
justice to the transgressor or thu
people gather to hear the will of thu
law.
Mr.. Humphrey will return to Man
haitian today. in which camp he ha
made his residence for the past few
years.

ATTRACTION ON
JULY FOURTH
EFFORT BEING MADE TO SIGN

An effort is now being made to Sc
cure prizefght as an attraction for
Independence day. Should the neces-
sary arrangements be successfully
consummated the fight fans of this
city will witness Bobbie Lundy and
Kid Krantz in battle to the finish.
w. S. Johnson of the Casino Ath-
letic club is at the head of the prop
osition to bring the two welter-
weights together. He states that he
is at this time uncertain whether or
not he will be able to sign up these
men. He wants the proceeds to go
toward some worthy charity and is
taking the interest in the matter
purely from standpoint of one who
wants to see the good old Fourth go
off in a whirl of glory.

ARE OPENING
UP PROPERTY
AT GOLD REEF
GOLDFIELD ORE REDUCTION co.
HAS BEGUN WORK ON ITS
ESTATE NEAR HERE.

The Goldfield Ore and Reduction
company has begun active operations
on its property, situated about seven
miles south of this city.
Marvin Arnold, who is in charge
for the Goldfield company, has been
on the ground for the past several
days experimenting the installation
of machinery consisting of a 20
horsepower hoist and a four-drill
compressor, in addition to a gallows
frame.
Operations at the present time will
be confined to the Gold Seam claim,
upon which a shaft will be sunk to
a depth of 800 feet before drifting or
crosscutting will begin. The ledge
on the surface of the Gold Seam is
strong and well defined, carrying
average values of $29 to the ton in
gold. The company has every con-
fidence in its estate, secured by pur-
chase from Charles Keilhofer and
others some time ago 1t expects to
open up mine of no mean proper
tions.
The advent of the Goldfeld Ore
and Reduction company into Gold
Reef means much for that district.
The section has great many admir-
ers who are of the opinion that all
that is needed is consistent develop
nient to bring it rapidly to the front
and place it in the column of pro-
ducers. Also, the success of the new
owners means much for Tonopah as
this camp is the seat of supplies for
Gold Reef and the surrounding sec
ton.

MURDERER OF
PROSPECTORS IS
NOW ON TRIAL
TO BE PRESENT AT PRELINIIN-
AIRY NEARING OF FRANCIS
co OIHAO.

Under Sheriff Vail Pittman and
Lester Bell of the sheriff's Office de-
parted yesterday morning for Rhyo-
lite, where they will be in attendance
upon the preliminary hearing of
Francisco Oihao, who is charged
with the murder of B. E. Nelson and
Dick Stillwell, his partner, at Le-
land. Nevada, Wednesday morning
last.
The case against Oihao is said to
be strong one. He is charged with
another of the murder of tho two
men above mentioned. He was plac-
ed under arrest at Amargosa Friday
last by Deputy Sheriffs Lillard and
Johnson of this county.
The crime has been traced to two
Mexicans, of whom Ohiao is said to
to be one. They were followed to
Amargosa by Lillard and Johnson
who had been in the town about an
hour when the Mexican now in GUS
lONy ChLOlCA a al
store for the purpose of purchasing
provisions. The officers were in the
store at the time and Immediately
placed the man under arrest. The
other Mexican who is supposed to
have been with Oihao at the time of
the murder is still at large and the
officers believe him to be in the To-
cality where Oihao was captured. A
sharp search is being made for the
missing man and every effort will be
made to bring him to answer for his
part in the terrible deed.
Sheriff Owens states that the pre-
liminary will not consume a great
deal of time and that if the judge
finds Oihao guilty he will be brought
to Tonopah, where he will have to
answer before the grand jury.

MANHATTAN IS
MAKING GOOD AS
A PLACER CAMP
MANY PEOPLE TRYING TO Sc
CURE A FOOTHOLD IN THE
NORTHERN CAMP.

Arthur Raycraft of the Manhat-
tan Dexter company was an arrival
in Tonopah yesterday morning from
the northern camp and reports Man
haitian enjoying better times than for
some time past. The recent placer
discoveries has caused a new spirit
to take hold of the people there with
the result that important develop
ments are being made which augur
well for the future prospects of that
camp.
Mr.. Raycraft brings the informa-
ton that the town is full of strang-
ers, many of whom are placer miners
of years of experience and that they
are of the unanimous opinion that
Manhattan will prove one of the larg-
est placer producers in the country.
Alaskans there declare that the pros
poets are as bright in Manhattan as
they were in the early days of Uncle
Sans most northern possession.
Many of these miners are trying to
get hold of ground there, offering
splendid inducements to secure a
foothold in the camp.

sundays GAME
IS EASY FOR
VOLUNTEERS
PALACE NINE PROVES EASY FOR
THE VOLUNTEERS IN THE
SUNDAY GAME.

Eleven to nothing is the story of
the ball game Sunday afternoon last
between the Palace nine and the Vol
unteers.
When Umpire Forrest called game
there was rather large crowd pres
ent to witness the afternoons sport
and who stayel long enough to see
the Palace team get drubbing that
will hold them for some time IT,
come. However, they proved good
losers and promise that the next time
the two teams meet there will he a
different story to tell.
AS far as anyone saw the boys
wearing the uniform of the Palace
club were never allowed to get fur.
ther on the journey to home than the
second station. 1t is even asserted
that in getting that far they were
favored by gifts at the hands OF the
Volunteers.
The major part of the glory of the
Volunteer, though in fairness it must
be said that he was given that sup
port which makes victory almost GER
tain. Seitz is unquestionably the
greatest pitcher that ever infested
these parts, if indeed he is not the
best who ever climbed the mount for
a Nevada team.
The Volunteers have gotten to-
gether a strong, formidable team
and it is doubtful whether or not
there is a team in the whole state
that can compare with them. In al
likelihood, the victors of Sunday last
will meet a team from the northern
part of the state on independence
day and the people Of Tonopah viii
have chance to root for the home
boys, who will, unless all signs fail
carry the colors of Tonopah to vic
tory.
