GIVES LARGEST
SECURITY BOND
IN The STATE

At a special meeting of the board
OF county commissioners of Nye
county, held last evening, the new
surety company bonds of Sheriff
Ed Malley and County Treasurer
Frank p Mannix were approved.
The National Surety company,
which has headquarters in New
York City, furnished the bonds for
both these officials. Mr. Malley
is bonded in the sum of SIS, 900
as assessor and $4,000 as sheriff.
Mr.. Mannix's bond as county treas
urer and ex-officio tax collector is
one of the largest in the state
100000
Three years ago the legislature
passed a law compelling surety
companies to deposit with the state
a sum of money equal to per cent
of their liabilities. The companies
would not do this, and for the last
three years they have not been
writing official bonds in the state
OF Nevada. But the last legisla-
ture repealed the law, and the sure
ty companies are now doing business
in the state, the bonds of the two
Nye county officials above referred
to being the first written since the
prohibitory law was enacted.
The bonding company. in this in
stance, is recognized as one of the
strongest in the country. The coun-
ty, Mr.. Mannix and Mr.. Malley
are all to be congratulated over
the restoration of the surety COM
pany system, which is considered by
everyone to be much more satisfac-
tory than the personal bond sys-
TEN. The personal bondsmen OF
the sheriff and treasurer, who are
among the best and strongest men
in Nye county, were released from
responsibility on and after Novem-
Der 1, 1911.
The account and transaction OF
| the sheriff and assessor were check
ed up to the above date by Expert
Accountant James H. Monteath, act
ing for and in the name of the
district court and the grand jury
who reported to the commissioners
last evening as follows:

Crane like a glove, despite its woman's
manufacture, and measures up to the
best efforts of some Of the most widely
advertised he-playwrights in the profess
sion.
Crane is cast in the role of one Lar
kin, a Senator from somewhere in the
dim Northwest, firmly determined to
oppose a civil war claim, and handi-
capped by the marital overtures of his
nousekeepers. The fourth is leaving as
the curtain rises.
After a talky first act, one Senator
Judson Is introduced. who induces a
Mrs. Ida Flower to apply for the posi-
ton of housekeeper to Larkin. Mrs.
Flower Is the supposed beneficiary OF the
Senate claim.
The result is nepenthe from. the hor-
rors OF an ill-kept house and enough
complicated situations to keep the audi
ence in a roar of laughter. The climax
comes when the Senator's secretary runs
away with his daughter and he finds
that his housekeeping model of domes-

Prawnu that Change Color.

An interesting example is given by a
correspondent in illustration Of the
changes which welcome the morn among
some of the inhabitants of the sea. The
shallow water around our coasts is peo-
pied by a small prawn, hippolyte varians,
which lives in shoals among the seaweeds
at the level of low spring tides. Through
out the night the prawns are OF beauti-
full transparent blue or blush green color,
but as soon as dawn appears the trans
parent blue fades and each assumes the
color of the particular seaweed upon
which II browses.
This rhythm of color change has be-
come so unvarying that II they are kept
in perpetual darkness their color alters
at the time when daylight should have
appeared and reverts again at the hour
Of nightfall For two or three days they
keep up the change until the habit Is
broken. and only the admission of day
light can reawaken the nervous rhythm
once more.

Origin of Lace Making.

a romantic legend is stIIl current
among the peasants Of Europe concern
ing the origin of LACE. AS the story
goes, a lover who could offer his be-
trothed no costly gift one day brought
to her a leaf which he had plucked in
the forest.
She accepted it as a true token of love
and preserved it with care. In time the
lover went away-to the wars, perhaps
and never returned.
The maiden priced the leaf then as a
sacred treasure, and when she found
only the delicate veining left of her
keepsake she took needle and thread and
tried to copy the fairy-like web. And
thus was made :he first bit of real lace.

Havoc of the Hide aunt.r,.

In 1881 the buffalo hide hunters shipped
5000 buffalo hides to the East. The next
year tho number was 100000. and 1885
10000 Only 300 were reported in 1884,
and after that there were none at all.
In 1855 Sitting Bull and his band with
some white hunters, killed the last 10000
of the Northern herd.
The last survivors, twenty-eight in
number, were killed on the Big Porcu-
pine in 1886, and were mounted for the
National Museum. With that the wild
buffalo of North America practically
ceased 10 exist, except for a few in the

How Farmers Get Big Money
From The Rural Free Delivery

II all the 10000 horses used in the
rural free delivery service of the p.
o. department. were stood in a straight
line from New York city TO San Fran
cisco, there would be horse every
46 yards. The distance. as the crow
flies, is 1850 miles.
Forty thousand men do the work.
and practically all carriers own two
horses. while some OF them have
three. made necessary by long. sandy
or hilly. routes.
Now, these horses, on an average.
last only three years at the work,
which is extremely hard. They are
worth. say, 800 each
So IL follows that the carriers must
have one new horse on the average
every year to the tune Of $4,000, 099--
and this three million goes TO the
farmers along the different r. r. ID.
routes for the most part.
IL costs 500 a year TO feed a horse
sufficiently well so that he can stand
il to draw his blackboard or buggy
over the average X. f. ID. route-and
we find the farmers benefting another
SO. GOO. 900 from this source.
The figures grow stupendous. They
sound like Standard oil or war
statistics.
Thus we have sl2,0o0,0OO annually
paid over to farmers which they did
not receive before the days OF free
