MONO COUNTY
is SNOW bound
STORM ENDING FRIDAY MORN
ING THE WORST OF THE
SEASON.

Saturdays Bodie Miner says:
The snow storm which started
Thursday evening and continued all
day yesterday and has demoralized
things generally. No stages or mail
arrived last night and the prospects
for resumption of service are
not bright. Nearly twenty inches
of snow fell and the wind storm
of last night drifted it to almost
insurmountable heights.
Last night the wind caused sew
eral interruptions in the Standard
power line, but at 1:15 this morn
ing the line went out of commits
sion altogether. Electrician Teddy
Corrigan, with assistants Jackson
Andy and John Sturgeon, left or
snowshoes this morning in an eff.
fort to locate the trouble.

SHERIFF OWENS
. MAKES REPORT To
commissioners
LARGE SUM is COLLECTED AS
POLL TAX DURING THE
PAST YEAR.

Sheriff j. J. Owens, who is also
the assessor of this county, yes
terday made his report to the board
of county commissioners showing
the amount of license and poll
tax money collected. The license
report for the month of December
shows a total of $1,459.35 turned
over to the county treasurer. The
report shows the collections to be
derived from the following sources
Gaming, (Tonopah) 1887; gaming,
(outside) $141. The proceeds from
county licenses are, saloon, $197.-
40; merchandise, $42.30; miscel-
laneous, $91.65.
In the matter of poll tax collec-
lions for the year 1909, the report
of Sheriff Owens shows that a
greater amount was collected in
Nye county during this period than
in Esmeralda county which has a
greater population. Nye county's
revenue from poll tax amounted tc
$2.750.40 and check was yester
day rendered Treasurer Frank P
Mannix for this sum.
The report shows that the pol
tax collections have been done il
a conscientious manner and grea
credit is due the sheriff for the rec
ord made during the year.

PENSACOLA WILL
 HAVE CARNIVAL

Pensacola. Fla, January 10.-When hun dreds of visitors to Pensacola's Mardi Gras celebration February and betake themselves to the water front to witness the real opening of the carnival. the arrival of King Priscus, 1t will be reve- lation to them to learn that, walking southward from Main street, three blocks from the dock, where the King plants his foot upon visiting his favored city. they will have walked over earth from possibly every country in the world. They will at least have walked over earth and gravel from every country in tho world which boasts of seaport, and that means practically the whole known world.
 It is remembered in Pensacola by peo- ple not considered old when the water front extended as far northward as the electric company's track leading from the city to the naval reservation. That was in the days of the strife between the north and the south. At that time, or thereabouts, people were able to bathe from a point right where the big busi- ness block at the intersection of Main and Palafox streets is now marked on  ther and farther into the bay, and thou sands of ships from scores of countries came and aided in the growth of the city toward the water front.
