 A husband of one of the ladies who re- ceived the leagues circular, put himself into communication with the police The police traced the circulars to Milan, where 1t was discovered that certain Hungarian and her Italian husband were the founders of the league. The woman. questioned by the police, said that the league had thousands of members in ev- cry country of the world. She explained that the consolation offered to the ladies was of an entirely spiritual nature, and that her object was merely to supply the demand for sympathy caused by the brutal obtuseness of most husbands The police decline to take any action against the leazue.<

TIES PRISONER
IN BOILING HEAT

A report has just reached this
office by special wire that a Greek
section man by the name of Erilar
noy, got on a rampage at Deeth and
attempted to enter the home of
Frank McDermit He was frighten-
ed away and later on was arrested
by Officer Wines, who the report
says, made his prisoner stand up to
a telephone pole and extend an arm
on each side, when he snapped on a
pair OF handouts, and made the
poor devil stand out in the boiling
rot sun for over three hours hug
ging that telephone pole About
two weeks ago the Deeth Jail was
burned and now the town has no
bastile, but this does not justify the
officer in exposing IA prisoner to the
torture in this manner There has
ben considerable talk over the
matter here Justice of the Peace

STATE SCHOOL MONEY
IS NOW APPORTIONED BY
SUPERINTENDENT BRAY
Total Amount Apportioned Through
out the State Is 500, 4O1 .35---Share
for Nye County Is $1O,O13.8O.

State Superintendent Bray, in dis
cussing the apportionment of state
school money, says:
The total amount Of money ap-
portioned in July, this year, is SILL
394.S5 less than in July, 1910. In
consequence, nearly all the counties
got less this year than last, though
a few get slightly more, owing to
the new method of apportionment
There are now 1884 school CEN
sus children, as against 1891 in
July, 1910, a slight gain. Four
counties show losses in the number
of census children as follows:
Washoe, 223; Storey, 81; Eureka,
H. and Esmeralda, 1873 All the
others show gains, except Douglas,
which remains stationary
In the state as a whole we have
every reason to except a steady in
crease yearly in the number of CEN
sus children as Nevada becomes
more an agricultural state. and since
the mining interests are reasonably
certain to continue prosperous for
many years to come This means
more schools, more teachers. and
greater necessary outlay for school
purposes
The income from state school
funds is not likely to be materially
increased In fact unless we can
get much better investemnt it is Ger
tain to decrease. as the interest
bearing debt of the school lands
sold is beng gradually paid up
More and more than the schools
must depend on direct taxation

state tax for school purposes viii

Warmly patriotic in nature, she

which she urged that April IS

all the graves of fallen confeder

A Lively Afternoon
In Supreme Court
Over Ballot Count

In the supreme court yesterday
afternoon in the matter of the con-
tested election case, there was CON
siderable OF ructiOn. Attorney
General Baker raised objection to
further continuation of the count
and submitted authorities bearing out
his contention that the court had
no jurisdiction in the matter and
that here was an insufficiency in
the complaint or petition filed by
the REALTORS Springmeyer and Lee
gate.
The court ruled i'll relation to
the matter that they would take
up the matter of the evidence to
be given by County Clerk voight
CT Elko county, who was present
wirh the ballots Of that county,
ard after he had identified the bal
lots, that the count would then
rest until the court would have
me to look into the merits of
the objection filed by the attorney
9, neral and would probably hear
argument on the matter later on.
County Clerk Fred c. Voight was
then put upon the stand to iden-
tify the ballots of Elko county that
wee in his possession. The matter
of Identification was one that
brought forth a stor moi objections
from Baker.
Il appears that the ballots were
kept in rather slipshod manner
in the Elko court house and that
upon tLtir 9rrival in this city they
had been released by the Elko
county clerk at the Wells Fargo
Office some four hours before they
were delivered to the court room.
Mr. Voight was not an official of
the county at the time the ballots
were received from the various cleo
ton boards and knew but little
of their condition. He answered
every question put to him in a very
straightforward manner and refused
to identify the separate packages
as being in the same condition as
when received at the court house
in Elko. A number of objections
were filed by Baker and overruled

Tuesday morning a fire alarm was
sent into Calvin that the farm house of
John Lawrence, west of town was on
fire. In short while several rigs load
ed with men we're on their way out but
before they arrived 1T was seen that
nothing could be done to save the build
ing as the fire had too good a start.
The cause of the tire as far as is known
was from defective chimney. Practi-
cally all of the household goods were
saved. The building was valued at
$1,000 with insurance of 5000. Every
body had left the premises and Mr..
Lawrence was hauling his second load
of goods down to Ole Alickson's farm
when he happened to look round and
saw that his barn was mass of
flames. Mr.. Lawrence ran back as fast
as he could but the flames had gained
such headway he was unable to save
anything. Besides the barn he lost
three loads of hay, number of loads of
oat bundles, forty bushels of oats,
several sets of harness. The loss on the
barn will be about $1,000 with s4O0 in
surance. The loss will be keenly felt
by Mr.. Lawrence
