rOTHE VICTIMS OF THE
BELMONT NINE DISASTER

Seventeen mounds in the cemetery
Are the mounds of men who would
never tarry;
OF men who at all times obeyed
duty's call,
Whether in life or near deaths wall.
They have passed their lives of
glory,
Where all men young or hoary,
Must meet the same sad fate
AS those who before entered
heavens gate.
They have done their acts of kind
ness
In this world where all is blind
ness;
They have sown their seeds of love
And will reap the harvest their
above.

AN UNPARALLELED RECORD.

Figures compiled by the railroads
show that during 1910 not single
passenger was killed on the Union
Pacific lines in Mexico, a total of
1880 miles.
During that period there was car
ried on these lines an aggregate of
49,491, 600 passengers, or, in other
words, 100000 passengers were
carried one mile
This is the result of the electric
block signals and other safety de-
vices, and is believed to have no
parallel in the railroad world San

RULING ON AN
APPLICATION FOR
WRIT OF MANDATE

In the District Court of the Fifth
Judicial District of the State of
Nevada, in and for the County Of
Nye.
Holly Heisner, Plaintiff, VS.. Tonopah
Sewer and Drainage Company, a
Corpartion, Defendant.
The hearing upon the applica.
ton for writ of mandate in the
above-entitled case, having occu-
pied the attention of this court for
considerable time, the evidence
bearing upon the subject matter
having been quite fully presented,
and the law relating to such appli-
cations having been exhaustively ar
gued, 1t seems proper that the rea-
sons for the action of the court
herein should be set forth.
This court finds that a rate of
ten dollars per month for sewer
service to boarding houses of the
size and character of that conduct
ed by the plaintiff is unreasonable
by comparison with residence rates
and rates for restaurants, and be-
cause for the remaining four and
a half years before the expiration
of the bonds of the sewer company
no such rate is necessary to enable
the company to meet its obliga-
tons, unless the obligations of the
prior five and one-half years should
be made up by the present patrons
of the sewer company, an arrange
ment to which this court can give
no support.
BY this time eleven-twentieths oil
the bond obligation of the company
should have been provided for
amounting, so far as principal is
concerned, to $4,000, and leaving
$4,000 of the principal to be met
in the remaining nine-twentieths oil
the whole period of ten years. The
income of the company is at pres
ent $537.50 per month, as estimated
by its own attorney, or $6450 pei
year; it's expenses per year are
very close to $3.50; a balance o.
$4,000 is available, therefore, t.
meet the principal, amounting tt
$11,250 for the remaining four anC
one-half years. This apparently in
dicates that there will be a defici
of $2250 at the end of the period
but interest in the sum of $162(
per year enters into the calculation
and this is too much, for it throws
on the present patrons burden be
longing largely to the previous fiv,
and one-half years. Some provision
should have been adopted durinl
that period to take care of it il
part, say one-third of the origina
interest of $500 per year, leavinl
for the later period only $1,000 pc,
year, saving of $420 per yea
for the remaining period, or $3.50
and reducing the suggested defici
to $3.50. This sum would no doub
be taken care of toward the enc
OF the term, since the interest SHOULD
decrease monthly or yearly as tn,
end OF the term is approached, i
proper sinking-fund provisions ar,
made. 1t may be here stated tina

ACTUAL STARVATION.
Facts About Indigestion and Its Re-
lief That Should Interest You.

Although Indigestion and Dyspepsia
are so prevalent, most people do not
thoroughly understand their cause and
cure. There is no reason why most peo-
pie should not eat anything they desire
if they will only chew it carefully and
thoroughly. Many actually starve them
selves into sickness through fear OF eating
every good-Iooking, good-Smelling, and
good tasting food, because it does not
agree with them.
The best thing to do is to fit yourself to
digest any good food.
We believe we can relieve Dyspepsia.
We are so confident of fhis fact that we
guarantee and promise to supply the med
icine free of all cost to every one who
will use it, who is not perfectly satisfied
with the results which it produces. We
exact no promises, and put no one under
any obligation whatever. Surely, Moth
ing could be fairer. We are located right
here and our reputation should be Suffi-
Gent assurance OF the genuineness of our
offer.

gestion or Dyspepsia in any form to come
to our store and buy box of Rexall DyS-
pepsia Tablets. Take them home and

action, thus leading to perfect and healthy
digestion and assimilation.

Tablets furnishes Is days treatment. In
ordinary cases, this is sufficient to produce
a cure. In more chronic cases, longer
