While we do not believe there will be
any opposition to the issuance of the
bonds, every voter in the district who
believes in giving the children of Elko
every facility for securing an education
should go to the polls Saturday afternoon
and vote for the issuance of the bonds,
There is no use offering arguments on
this proposition. Every citizen of the
district is familiar with the conditions
and knows the necessity of Il new school
building. If there is II voter in the dis.
trict who does not know its needs, he
should go to the polls and vote for the
bonds on general principles.
Let us all turn out Saturday afternoon
and roll up unanimous vote for the
bonds.

Was Il Ghost of Rrother1

Miss Isla Stewart, for 81 years ma.
tron OF st. Bartholomew's hospital,
London, recently told this story at a
public dinner given In her honor:
Some years ago, In one OF her wards,
lay n little boy who was dying Of hip
disease. He was an orphan with only
one brother. a sailor then serving
on a British warship in Chinese wa
tiers. One morning the boy told her
that he had had such a happy night, as
he had dreamed that his brother was
with him at his bedside. When the
night nurse came to report she said
that she had had a. curious experience.
When looking along the ward during
the night she had been astonished to
see n sailor in the ward beside the
boys bed. Resenting the intrusion,
she had gone to the bed to inquire into
the matter, when she found there was
nobody there. Twice afterward dur
Ing the night she had seen the same
apparition. At last she turned down
the gas and altered the position Of
some plants. After that she did not
see the sailor again.
