WHAT IS Home
WITHOUT A DADDY

We happened in a home the other
night and over the parlor door saw
the legend, worked in letters of red,
what Is home Without Mother?"
Across the room was another brief,
God Bless Our Home" says a
father who knows.
Now what is the matter with
God Bless Our Dad?" He gets
up early. lights the fire, boils an
egg and wipes off the dew of the
dawn with his. boots while many a
mother is sleeping. He makes the
weekly handout for the butcher,
the grocer, the milkman and the
baker, and his pile is badly worn
before he has been home an hour.
If. there is noise during the
night dad is kicked in the back and
made to go down stairs and find the
burglar and kill him. Mother
darns the socks, but dad bought
the socks in the first place, and the
needles and the yarn afterwards.
Mother does up the fruit. we'll dad
bought it all, and jars and sugar
cost like the mischief.
Dad buys the chickens for the
Sunday dinner, carves them himself
and draws the neck from the ruins
after every one else is served.
"What Is Home Without Mother?"
Yes, that is all right, but what is
home without a father? Ten
chances to one it's a boarding
house, father is under a sslab, and
the landlady is the widow. Dad,
here's to you-you've got your
faults; you may have lots of 'em-
but you're all right, and we will
miss you when you're gone.

irrespective of politics, can be de-
pended on to work for his election.
Among the business men Mr..

PORTER CHARLTON ARRESTED

Porter Charlton, the husband of
the woman whose body was found

of Lake Como, Italy, a few weeks
ago, was arrested in New York
Thursday as he landed from the
steamship Princess Irene. Chralton

forwards confessed to killing his

After reading a letter received
from her husband, J. K. Turner,
consulting engineer and representa-
tive of A. D. Myers in Goldfield,
Mrs. Turner went to her home and
shot herself through the left breast.
She fired a shot with a so calibre
revolver to test the gun. Mrs
Scott, who lived next door, heard
the shot and ran into Mrs. Turner's
home where she found the injured
woman in a chair with the revolver
clasped in her hand and the blood
flowing from her breast. She is
still alive, but the chances of her
recovery are slight-Enterprise.

Dear Sirs:-
In connection with the widespread
agitation about the increasing cost
of living, considerable interest has
been aroused by bulletin recently
issued by the department of agri-
culture, which attempts to give
instruction in the best methods of
cooking meats in the home. This is
Farmers Bulletin No. 391, entitled
Meat in the Home" and it is a
practical cook book for home use.
Believing that it will prove of
interest to the people of Nevada, /
am sending you SO copies for free
distribution, and shall be glad if
you will give them such notice in
your paper as you think proper and
hand them to those who call. If
you need more, kindly inform me
and will endeavor to supply you.
Very sincerely yours.
Francis G. Newlands.
Notice will be given of the ar
rival of these bulletins and those
who want them should call or send
for them. Applications from the
country will receive our prompt
attention.

and the negroes around Jackson seem
to have given up pretty good sum
for supposed land claims in Oklahoma.
About three years ago there was an
exodus of negroes from Mississippi for
Oklahoma. They were wanted for
farm hands and hundreds of them
went out Immediately after Oklahoma
was admitted to statehood These
negroes were promised almost any
thing to get them out there, and after
reaching that state they learned the
promises would not be kept, and
many of them, being without funds,
had to remain there, while others,
who had a little money, or could get
it from friends in Mississippi, returned
to this state.
Some time ago alleged agents were
here trying to get money from the
Choctaw Indians in this state to file
land claims for them, but failing il
this it seems they have turned theil
attention to- the negroes, and have
been fairly successful.

JACKSON CITIZEN
BUYS STATE BONDS
Takes $4,000 Slice OF The Authorized
Issue of $500, ooo.-.c ther Mis-
sissippi Purchasers.

Jackson, Miss, Sept. IA Jack
son man, one OF the oldest residents
of the city, as well as one of the
wealthiest, has bought $4,000 of state
bonds He notified Goevrnor Noel
some time ago that he would take tErs
amount, and Thursday afternoon this
gentleman called at the executive Of
fee, arranged the details, paid over
the money and departed with his
bonds.
This makes a total of $63 900 of the
bonds sold to date, $5S,00O of which
have been sold to individuals. One
man in South Mississippi took $4,000
of these bonds, and another in the
eastern part of the state took $4,000,
while the other took $4,000. The
Jackson mans purchase was the lar
gest thus far recorded, and probably
will be the largest individual pur-
chase made.
IL ne Il lIot ANdtlOIdl DdIlh vi JdChSOI,
took $4,000 Thursday, making the
total sales for the day $4,000.
Governor Noel will ship out several
small purchases in the next day or
two, and the total sales for the week
may aggregate close to 100000. The
sale of these bonds will relieve the
financial stringency of the state for a
short time, and Governor Noel hopes
and believes he will have disposed Of
most of the bonds before Nov. 1.
Several bankers have informed the
Governor they will take small lots O
these bonds, simply to help the state
out, and would take the entire issue
if they did not have to pay taxes OF
the bonds, which will be purchased
with the banks surplus and is taxabl,
under the law, though the bonds ar,
supposed to be non-taxable.

Can't Get Bail.

If the three prisoners are held to
the grand jury on a murder trial they
will not be subject to bond till after
the jury has passed on the case, but
it is probable an attempt will be
made to get Mrs. Vance, at least, re-
leased on bail. Her daughter from
Memphis is in charge of her boarding
house on Hill street. The daughter
arrived Wednesday morning, and has
been with her mother several times
in the city jail.
The line of defense, it seems pretty
we'll settled, will be that the baby
died Immediately after it's birth, and
that Mrs. Vance gave it to a negro to
bury. But she has not told the
name of the negro, nor even
furnished the police with descrip
ton of him. She said she paid him
to bury the child, and did not know
for some time it was in the cistern
