lands have been received and $4,000

The Way Of Life,

1t is being said of an elderly man In
business in Atchison: HE can't stand
punishment as he formerly could"
And there is punishment to be en-
dured in making a living; don't forget
1t. Look over your own experience.
and you will detect punishment every
hour OF the day. If 1t isn't at home, 1t
is on the street car or on the road.
How many ways there are to punish
a man who tries his best to get along
and behave himself. And after a man
gets old it is more evident every year
that the poor fellow can't stand pun
ishment as he could when he was
younger-Atchison Globe.

ANNUAL BALL
Will BE GIVEN
THURSDAY EVE
KNIGHTS OF COLUMBUS ARE
PREPARING FOR THE
EVENT.

Tomorrow evening at the Miners
Exchange hall Tonopah Council,
Knights of Columbus, will entertain
at their third annual ball. The COM
mittee in charge has been extreme
ly busy throughout the week maxi
ing preparations for this event. The
announcement was made some time
ago that the affair this year would
be one of the greatest successes that
ever resulted from an annual dance
and it has been with this idea in
mind that the committee has done
its work. A special orchestra has
been engaged for the occasion and
the music furnished will be a treat
to the local dance lovers. The tick
cts, which have been placed on sale,
at 81 each, show that it is not the
desire of the order to realize a
large sum on the ball as it is
given solely for the purpose of pro-
viding pleasure and entertainment.

FOR APPEARANCES
BEFORE JUDGE

HAS BEEN '.DRUNK AND
DISORDERLY."

distinction of holding the local
record of justice court appearances,
added to his laurels yesterday when
he was brought before Judge At
kinsonn on a charge of being drunk
and disorderly. O'Connell admit
ted having INDUCED a little too
freely but made an eloquent plea
to regain his liberty, stating that
he was engaged in surveying some
mining claims west of town The
court had heard the defendant make
a similar statement in the past and
after entering a plea of guilty in
the records, sentenced O'Connell to
become a protege of Sheriff Owens
for the next thirty days. The or
der of commitment was handed to
O'Connell and he was informed to
report to the county Jail for duty.
This he did and last night was CON-
fortably arranged in his old quar-
tiers which he vacated about two
weeks ago.
O'Connell was arrested along
about New Years on suspicion of
having stolen a ladies' waist from
the clothes line in the rear or the
Miners hospital. The article of
clothing was the property of one
of the nurses. Chief Malley made
a search of the town and of O'Con-
nell's domicile but failed to find the
missing garment and after day
