as will the constitutionality of the
act amending the general banking
law, which names the state exam
iner as receiver for all defuncL

hearing at this early period the
matter will be settled definitely at
an early date and set at rest many

INDIANAS BROUGHT TO
THE STEWART INSTITUTE

Heney and the three papooses
who have been in Jail in Reno ever
since the Indian capture, were
brought to the Stewart Institute
Saturday by Superintendent Asbury
and will be kept there until the
government decides what is to be
done with them.
During the incarceration of the
four in Washoe county Jail no
trouble has resulted, for the cap
tives have been model prisoners.
Heney, or Snake, as she was for
merly called, is greatly attached to
her younger relations, and in a re-
cent conversation with young
squaw of her own tribe, she stated
that she did not wish to be sep
arated. 1t is now thought that her
wishes will be considered, notwith-
standing the efforts made at first
to place each in a different institu-
tion.

Tonopah is after a record in
the institution of the postal savings
bank, and by the time the bank
closes tonight it is estimated that
deposits will be higher than any
opening day in any town or city
which has at the present time one
of these institutions. Many enthu-
siasts were on hand to place their
coin in the care of Uncle Sam. Up
to $3.50 sixteen depositors had
opened accounts and the amount
deposited was 1892, an average of
almost $50.
The opening of the bank necessi-
tated the addition of an extra clerk.

Sadie Gibbons has been promoted

JOKER CAUSES TROUBLE.

WASHINGTON, May 1.-Some
joker in the middle west has caused
the banks, the treasury, the secret
service and lot. of other folk much
trouble by spreading a story that
the government coined no nickels
in 1910 and that every cent piece
in circulation bearing that date
must therefore be counterfeit. The
facts are that the mints coined
80, 0,169,353 nickels real and genuine
in 1910 and about 100000 worth
of those coins are in circulation.
For the last two days the mint bu-
reau and the secret service have
been besieged with calls for help
from banks of the middle west.
Many of the genuine coins have been
turned into Washington as counter
feits.

COLORADO GOVERNOR
WILL ISSUE THE CALL

DENVER, May 1.-The public
lands convention, suggested by Gov.
ernor John f. Shafroth of Colorado
several months ago, will be held
in this city September 2S, 20 and
30. A call for the convention will
be issued soon.
This decision was reached last
night at a joint meeting of the
public lands committee of the leg
islature and the Denver Chamber
of Commerce, attended by the gov.
ernor himself
The statement was made that
practically all of the seventeen states
IN which are located public lands
have responded to the personal in
Yitation of the governor favoring
such a meeting, and the governors
OF the states have said that they
will attend in person or be repre-
sented by able committees.
The purpose of the convention is
to discuss the future policy of the
states with reference to control of
the public domain.
1t was limited that great care
would be exercised in drafting the
call for the convention in order to
avoid the appearance of favoring
any faction.
