."DRoME" OUR NEWEST WORD
Professor Bell Declares That's the Way
to Say Man Flies.

to Say a Man Flies.
Professor Alexander Graham Bell,
the inventor, has coined a new word.
'In Canada" he said, I'VE speak of
a man 'droming' from one point to an
other.
1.-THE word aerodrome originated
with a professor Of Greek at Johns
Hopkins university, and 1t means an
air runner.
1--WE call our machines 'dromes'-
much simpler and more correct, too,
than aeroplane-for the fore and aft
curves in the aerodromes of today
make 'aeroplane' a misnomer. / think
We shall all come to calling them
'dromes.'"

WRIT OF VENUE
IS DENIED RICKEY
Judge Langan Decides to Try the State
Bank Cases in Ormsby County.

CARSON CITY, April 2.-That
the troubles of the State Bank peo-
pie is not yet over and that the
attorneys are after T. B. Hickey
was shown in the district court this
morning when Judge Langan open
ed for business. The case before
the bar is that of an application
of Mr. Hickey for a change Of
venue in the cases brought against
him by Receiver Wildes. Judge
Mack represented the receiver.
Judge Massey, Sam Plat and Judge
Bonner were on hand to defend
their clients, Messrs. Brougher,
Mapes, Bender and others.
The main issue which is directed
against Hickey, who is asking for
change of venue is based on the
statement that it would be impos-
sible for him to receive an Impair
tial trial in this county. One fact
was brought out at the argument
this morning that the major por-
tion of the depositors of the de-
funct bank reside in this county.
Judge Mack in his answer states
that only. eight depositors reside
in Storey county, twenty in Ly-
on county, twenty-four in Washoe
county, forty-four in Douglass and
IT'S in Ormsby. Through this bit
of evidence it is easy to see where
this city and county comes off in
regard to loss.
AS there is neat piece of legal
tangle in the service of the aft
davits by the attorneys for the re-
ceiVer, Judge Langan took the mat
ter under advisement until this
afternoon.
One of the features of the hear
| ing was the lack of interest that is
| evident in the matter. Aside from
the attorneys in the case and ths
court officers the room was de-
serted.
At the afternoon session Judge
Langan read his desicion in the
|

matters objected to by Attorneys
Massey and Bonner. In conclusion
he overruled the objections to the
filing of the affidavits of other par
ties to the suit aside from Hickey
Upon question by Attorney Mack
regarding the change of venue ask
ed for by the attorneys of T. b.
Hickey, Judge Langan denied the
writ and the case will be tried in
this county. Time was asked to set
the trial and this matter will come
up on the 9Th, inst, when the
date for the trial will be set.
This trial will involve large
amount of money, both on the part
of Mr.. Hickey and other members
of the bank. The receiver is SUI
ing the president and the bank di-
rectors for nearly all the transac-
tons that in any way lost money
to the depositors.
lHe attorneys III CouIC Ills dllei'
noon all agreed that the trial would
take long time, probably running
into month or more.
The fact that Mr.. Hickey was not
represented by council today caus,
ed some comment. 1t is more thar
probable that the action of today
will not be final as appeals will be
taken, as objections were placed OF
file by both Massey and Bonner
It is probable that when the day
of setting trial, the 9th, inst, ar
rives, that Mr.. Hickey will be rep
resented by attorneys.
