WEALTHY STOCK MEN
BUY TRACTION ENGINE

A powerful traction engine was re
ceived last week by Adams & McGiU.
TO be utilized in retaining about
5000 acres of agricultural land on
the Cleveland ranch in Spring valley.
The entire tract will be sowed in hay
and grain this spring.
In order to expedite the work, the
wealthy land owner decided to pur-
chase from the Buffalo Gasoline
Motor company a six-cylinder, eighty
horse power traction engine for
blowing and harvesting. Three dlf-
fent speeds can be maintained, rang
ing from 1R { o 3h miles an hour.
The equipment is so arranged that II
can be uncoupled from the other part
of the machinery and used as a sta
tionary engine to propel threshers
and other like appliances.
The trend of the traction wagon is
eight feet, which Is considerably
wider than any of the county roads.
On this account il will be n~ecessari
to complete considerable road work
besides building and reinforcing e
eral bridges, before the machine can
be taken to the Cleveland ranch.

RIEPETOWN NOT SoLt ED.

The motives that prompted the
shooting of John Derin near Riepe-
town last week are still yelled in
mystery. The eoroner's jury, which
Investigated the circumstances sur
rounding the death, reported last
Tuesday that it was unable to gath
er any information that would lead
to the apprehension of the party who
committed the cowardly murder.
The witnesses who were examined
testified to the peaceful reputation
of the murdered man, but were un-
able to attach the blame to any par
ticular person. The following testi-
fed during the hearing: DR.. A. f.
Adams. G.. II. Ercanbrack, Gabriel
Gerodo, Peter Caroffi, Mat Belino.
and Joseph Derrico. The nearest

CITY TAX RATE IS
FIXED BY COUNCIL

The residents of Ely will be COM
PEELED to pay a tax of s1.2o on lhe
hundred dollars valuation o muhlcl-
pal during the year lslz,
that rate having been established by
the city council last Tuesday night.
The increase of % cents over last
years estimate is due to the fac1
that the new administration faced
an oyerdraft of $4,000 at the time 1t
assumed the reins of the city govern
ment. The failure of the retiring
officials to provide methods for the
redemption of $4,000 worth OF city
bonds is also responsible for the ad-
d"itional tax burden. Sinking funds
have also been created by the present
council to redeem $4,000 worth OF
outstanding bonds as they fall due
The new rate will provide sufficient
funds to meet all necessary expenses.
Owing to the fact that Richardson
and Marks, the owners of the Rich
mar block, had contributed S25 TO
the city treasury at the time they
made connections with the sewer on
Clark street, that amount was re-
mitted by the council from the as
sessment of $S4.S1 for the eonstrue-
ton of the on Court street.
The street committee was &uthoriz-
ed to arrange for the sprinkling Of
the streets whenever it was deemed
that such a procedure was necessary.
The question of the free Carnegie
library was referred TO the commit
tee on public improvements. They
will consider the proposition care
fully before notifying the Scotch
philanthropist in what manner the
city authorities might aid the meri-
torious project. This requirement
must be complied with before Carne-
gle will indicate the amount he will
contribute.

DESERTED GIRL S PROVIDED WITH
 HOMES
Women May Be Sent There By The Various Boards of Supervisors and May Come from Any Part of
 the State.

PHOENIX, Ariz., Nov. 22.-Desti- ute, homeless and deprived women and dependent, delinquent, neglect
 ed or abandoned girls, no matter from what part of Arizona will
 hereafter be taken care of at the Crittenton home.
 A contract between the state board of conrol and the management
 of the home, drawn under the proviS- ions of an act, passed by the legiSla-
 ture, will be signed within a few days.
 The board and managers have practi- cally agreed upon all details. The home will receive $50 month apiece for taking care of the women and children, and reserves the right to re- fuse admittance to any woman whose presence in the institution is regarded as undesirable.
 This is extremely reasonable said Secretary Charles R. Osborn of the board of control. T should think it
 would cost fully $30 a month to take
 care of the women, but the girls will cost little less.
 The law that was passed gives
 the beard of control power to make
 contract for the care of women and children but boys are not received at
 the home, so the law cannot be com
 piled with to the exact letter. Some other provision will have to be made for the boys
 Women can be sent to the home by the various boards of supervis- OTIS, but the juvenile courts have exclusive jurisdiction over wayWard
 TT homeless girls. The law provides that women and children may be sell fenced to the home by the boards of
 supervisors or the superior courts.
