evening they will hold a Catholic

usual attractions. Supper will be
served and a grand Mexican ball

who met the sick man at the train.
His condition was such that an
ambulance was called and before
the Home was reached the veteran
expired The physician who al
lowed Mr.. Hooper to make the
trip over the pass is entitled to
severe criticism.

LOveIOCk a Paradise.

Lovelock is the paradise of ho-
boes at the present time, and those
who can evade the peace officials
and remain in town for any length
of time can have the time of their
lives for few cents. There is a
beer war on at Lovelock, and in
consequence the foamy bev rage is
being dispenced over the mahog-
any at reduced rates.
The saloon men have taken sides
in the war, and on one side the
thirsty can secure huge schooner
of German Joy for l cent. On the
other side the stems are selling for
"a cents. At the present price it
is not difficult matter for one to
forget ones troubles for cents,
while with 10 cents it is possible
for a man to feel like loving his

viii they Stop
Prize Fight

During the past few weeks there
has been much adoo made over
gambling in various towns in this
state whether justifable or not it
is not known. The scouts, or the
or state police, as they are better
known, have offered to assist the
sheriff in curbing gambling in this
county. In fact, it is said that
one OF the officers is now in town
and is watching the situation.
In several of the local saloons
large green poster announce that
several boxing exhibitions are to
be held in Virginia City on No
yember 9th. The question is, will
the officers allow this affair TO take
place without the lieense.required
by law. VIII they hunt for a
violation of the law, the existence
OF which is doubtful, and refuse to
act, as they have in the past, in
advertised violations. II they do,
the sooner the scouts are mustered
out and the taxpayers money
put to better use, the better.

Sam Davis viii Give Carson
Valley a Boost in His Book

Sam P. Davis, noted as a writer,
lecturer, and politician, has been
doing little missionary work in
this Valley in the interest OF a
book that he is about to publish
extolling the greatness of Nevada
1t has been a great man years
since Sam circulated through
Carson Valley and he marveled at
the mprovements that have been
made by the farmers. He was
particularly attracted by the con.
dition OF the alfalfa fields and re-
marked that they were level as
billiard tables. "Some wonderful
changes in the past twenty years.

TELEPHONE co.
ORDERS HIM OUT
As MANAGER, Was the Best Man
Yet Employed by Company
and His Dismissal is
Regretted.

E. J. Phillips, who for the past
past three years has managed the
local telephone system for the
Nevada Consolidated Telephone
company, has been asked to re-
sign his position, the resignation
to take effect on the first of No.
vember. When asked 20 confirm
the truth OF the statement, Mr..
Phillips handed our reporter
letter addressed to him from James
g. Sweeney, president of the COM
pany, asking for his resignation.
However, the greater portion
of the letter was given up in pay
ing the highest tribute to Mr., and
Mrs. Phillips for their faithful
service during the time they have
had charge of the Valley exchange.
"This means that the pleasant
business and social relations that
you have had with the Valley
people are about to end" was the
next question asked Mr.. Phillips.
Folding up the letter bright
smile chased itself across his face,
be said: I'm no place where
have lived have |, 1--WE" | mean,
been so contented as here and we
are going to live here just as long
as the good people of Carson Val
ley will let us. All ole can gat out
of life is happiness and we are not
going to run away from it. Yes,
we have plans and you will be in
formed regarding them at no dis
tant date"
The Record Courier has the
presumption to believe that it is
backed up by nine-tenths of the
local telephone subscribers, when
we assert that Mr.. Phillips, during
his management, has been the
most conscientious and untiring
worker that ever served the COM
pany. The genial and pleasing
personality of both he and his
wife, have won them place in the
hearts of the good people of tn 8
Valley, that cannot be erase
from memory like dream.
Their many friends will be glad
to learn that they intend to con-
tinue to make their home in Car
son Valley.

voters into the ranks of the Silver
Party. In the course OF his travels
he visited the creameries and his
eye caught sight of large fiume
that carried skim milk to the hogs.
Several months later he published
an article about this milk flume.
Sam supposed that the big fume
conveyed milk to the creamery
from one of the large ranches.
Well, where it crossed above the
road, the heavy weight of the milk
caused it to collapse. When the
accident happened Hans and
Fritz were near the fume and were
both drowned in the flood of milk.
The story read SO plausible that
the associated press grabbed it
with the result that hundreds of
papers published the yarn believ-
ing it to besa fact.
