ORVIS RING IS YER YSICK

News of an alarming nature came
from the bedside of Professor Orvis
Ring. the veteran educator. last night
and it is believed that the aged teach
er cannot survive long.
Professor Ring has been confined
to St. Georges Hospital for the past
FIVE weeks as the result Of the recur-
renee Of chronic troubles which have
made him practically an invalid for
the past two years. These coupled
with the disabilities due to advancing
years make it extremely improbable
that he can survive.
Professor Ring is II years of age
and has served in educational depart
ments for over 80 years in Nevada.
For years he has been Superintend-
ent of Public Instruction and an in
dex OF the esteem and consideration
in which he is held was shown at the
recent primaries when no opponent
was put up against him on the Dem
ocratic ticket.
another tribute to the eduator was
paid recently when by popular vote
one of the modern school buildings
that on Peavine Street, was named
the Orvis Ring School in his honor.
The reports from the hospital last
night was that the sufferer was lowly
