EXPENSE.

Tononah, New, Jan. 10, 1911,
Editor Tonopah Daily Bonanza:
Dear S'r-In the issue of your
paper of January Z, 1911, appears
letter from Mrs. j. p. Brissell, in
which that worthy lady rather hy-
sterically calls attention to what
she thinks is case of cruelty and
a violation of the law.
The lady is a little slow, as one
of the American eagles over which
she is SO much concerned has been
in captivity thirty-three months and
the other thirty months. They
were given to me when quite young,
and both were brought to me in
wounded condition, one from Round
Mountain and the other from
Georges canyon. They were cared
for by me until they were fully
grown and had recovered from their
injuries. Since that time they have
been liberated four or five times
each. They refused to leave the
vicinity of Tonopah, and to keep
them from being killed or from
starving to death / have had to
take care Of them. They are fed
meat every day and they receive
water every day. refer the inn
pulsive lady to the managers of
the Tonopah and Goldfield market
and the Metropolitan market for
conformation Of the statement that
/ buy meat for them regularly.
They are in good condition in spite
of the fact that the place in which
they are kept is rather we'll venti-
lated, which is absolutely neces-
sary, as eagles are not especially
cleanly in their habits.

of the Order of Eagles, and once,
at the suggestion and expense OF
certain members Of that order, a

of one OF the birds and very

them. by man who wanted to kill
it and mount it; l preferred that
the bird should live even IL I had
to take care of it.
In conclusion desire to say that
neither Mrs. Brissell nor anyone
else in this community concerns
himself or herself more about the

APPRAISERS AFFIRM
ORE ASSESSMENTS
Collector Sharpe's Action Is
Upheld by Appraising

In regard to the duty on lead-zinc
entering the United States from Mex
leo, the United States court Of customs
appeals has now rendered its decision
in the case of the Consolidated Kan
sas City Smelling and Rerinfng COM
pany, affirming the assessments made
on ores imported.
The appeal was taken from a decision
of the board of general appraisers af-
firming the assessment Of duty made
by the collector at FL Paso upon mer-
chandise imported at the port Of Ell
Paso. The merchandise IN question con-
sisted Of a number of shipments of ore
from Mexico, each shipment containing
lead in large or small percentage, and
each containing over 10 percent of zinc.
All were assessed with duty on both
the lead and the zinc contents. The i'm
porter claimed that 1t was improper to
assess duty under both paragraphs of
the act, and that these ores were i'm
ported and snelted merely for the
lead contents, and should therefore be
assessed with duty only under the lead
paragraph. The board of general ap-
praisers toverruled the importers claim,
and sustained the action of the collec-

GREETINGS SENT BY
KING TO PRESIDENT
Letters From Two Rulers
Read at Bible Ter
centenary.

New York. n. Y. April 26.-The fol
read last night to the meeting in Carne-
gle hall in celebration of the tercen-
tenary Of the king James's translation
of the Bible:
ITO the Tercentenary Celebration Of
the King James Version Of the Eng
lish Bible:
II desire to express my deep inter-
est In the recognition which is being
taken in this country Of so notable an
event as the 300th anniversary Of the
king James version OF the English
Bible.
''The publication of the version of
the holy scriptures in the year 1911
associates it with the early colonies
of the English people upon this con-
tinent. 1t became at once the Bible
of our American forefathers It's
classic English has given shape to
American literature. It's spirit has in
fluenced American ideals in life. and
laws and government.
Il trust that this celebration may
continue and deepen the influence Of
the Bible upon the people Of this re-
public
.wm. H. Taft"
King George Sends S.etter.
a special message to the Tercentenary
1t was read by the British ambassador,
James Bryce.
The king said:
II rejoice that America and England
should join in concentrating the pub
lication, 800 years ago, Of that version
of the holy scriptures which has so
long held its own among English speak
ing peoples
Its circulation in our homes has
done more perhaps than anything else
on earth to promote among old and
young the moral and religious welfare
on either side OF the Atlantic.
The version which bears king
James's name is so clearly interviewer
in the history of British and American
life that it is right we should thank
God for it together
congratulate the president and
people of the United States upon their
share in this, our common heritage"
Bryce Delivers Kings Message.
In delivering a special message from
KING George v TO the meeting in Car
negie hail last night to celebrate the
S00th anniversary of the English trans
lation of the Bible. ambassador Bryce
OF Great Britain spoke of the effect
the translation had had upon the Eng
liSh speaking race. He said in part:
The great event which we are met
to commemorate was, like most great
things. no sudden achievement of a
group of gifted scholars, but the ma
ture fruit of desires and purposes
which had long. been ripening in the
minds Of our ancestors.
Much had been done towards an
English Bible before king James 1
his company of learned
scholars for their task. Using the la
eors of their many predecessors. the
-ransiators produced version which
vas wonderfully exact for the scholar
snip of those days, so exact that after
.hree centuries the changes which re-
peated collations Of the MANUSCRIPTS

Use meaning of the Hebrew and Greek
exits have led modern critics to make
Ire few and unimportant in proportion |
20 the whole,
How much Of the excellence of our
great writers from Milton, Jeremy |
Taylor and Baxter downwards is I
raeeable to their knowledge of the |
iction of the Bible! We can feel it |
