Poultry House for Five Dollars.

We have two poultry houses made
from rough lumber, sawed from a tree
out Of the woods, and covered with
shingles, but the cheapest one we have

around the barn and lumber pile-such
as can be found on most farms. Inside
measurements are 10x12 feet, 51a feet
high in front, 4 feet at back and 712
feet at the comb, which is feet from

Trying Experience of an Actress and a
Waiting Audience.

\ fire started in the dressing room
occupied by Fritz Schen at the Nixon
thcater Pttsburg, just before Il matinee
and the prima donna'S entire wardrobe
was ruined or destroyed. The singer.
with her two maids, was in the room at
the time. and She was about to dress
before going on the stage. One of the
maids had been working with an electric
iron on some of the singers dresses.
The wires became crossed and in an in
slant the furry tinery was III blaze.
Miss Schcff and her maids ran out Of
the room screaming fire, and the stage
hands and actors rushed in throng to-
ward the room. The stage hose was
soon pumping water into the dressing
room and the stage was entirely flooded.
In the meantime the audience was being
seated and no one knew that a fire
bazed back Of the scenes. The actors
hurried oht with their wardruhes into
the street. Miss Schctf remained re-
markably cool during the excitement.
The play was IN hour and half late.

ance in her street costume.

Fnttening Fowls.

in fattening chickens, but should be
used in preference mixed, half of It's

to cornmeal or ground oats. To fatten

COMMISSIONER
IS APPOINTED BY
The GOVERNOR
CHARLES HUMPHREY TO FILL
VACANCY CAUSED BY DEATH
OF FATHER.

Charles Humphrey, son of the
late W. c. Humphrey, was yes
terday appointed county commits
sioner by Governor Denver S. Dick
erson to fill the vacancy caused by
the death of his father. Imme-
diately on receipt of a telegram
from the governor, County Clerk
Robert G. Pohl telephoned to Mr..
Humphrey at Manhattan, announc-
ing the appointment and asking the
new commissioner to come to this
city and take the oath of office
before the board adjourned for the
month. Mr.. Humphreys announc-
ed he would arrive here this morn
ing. His commission should arrive
from the north on the noon train,
and the new official should go on
the payroll some time this after
noon.
Mr.. Humphreys, like his father
is a pioneer of southern Nevada
He was born within the confines Of
Nye county and his residence here
has made him fitted to understand
the needs of this section. He wa:
warmly supported by the leading
democrats of Nye and his petition
to the governor contained the sig
natures of many influential politi
clans. While this is the first pc
litical office, he has always takel
an active interest in the doings o
the democratic party and is on
of the staunchest supporters of tn
| followers of Jefferson.

CONTRACT FOR
Street CLEANING
MAY BE ANNULED
COUNTY COMMISSIONERS WILL
INVESTIGATE COMPLAINTS
TODAY.

Owing to the many complaints
of late regarding the lax way the
official street cleaner of this city
has been carrying on his business,
it is possible that a change will be
made by the county commissioners.
The board has been the recipient
of many kicks and the members
will start out this morning to do
a little investigating. Should the
result of their inspection bear out
the parties making the complaints,
Ed Powers, who has the contract
for cleaning the streets, and his
bondsmen, will probably be brought
plain why the terms of the agree
ment are not complied with. 1t
is also possible that the contract
will be cancelled and new bids
called for. Powers secured the
situation for S240 a month, but SC
far has paid but little attention to
the work. only one wagon is en-
gagged in the work, while S. S
May, who formerly had the con
tract, used two: May kept the
town in a sanitary condition ant
discharged his labors in con
scientious manner. During the las
two months it has been considered
somewhat strange if garbage wag
ons called at a residence once
week and often the periods stretcl
out to ten days at time. Witt
the warm weather approaching con
tinued negligence might prove di
sastrous to the public health of thi
city. The action of the com
missioners is to be commended.
