Taft Will Not Accept Pension

President Taft. who in due course OF events, will become an ex-
President on March 4 next, has let it be known that he will not ac-
cept the $4,000 yearly pension offered by the Carnegie Foundation
to future x-Presdents and their widows, so long as the latter re-
main unmarried"
President Taft has issued no formal state ment on the matter
but among all his friends it is a matter Of common knowledge that
he will refuse the pension when it is offered to him, as it undoubt
.edly will be when he becomes an ex-President The President is
not arich man, although his half brother, Charles T. Taft, is a multi
millionaire. Directly after the election President Taft announced
that when his term expired he would return to his home in Cincin
natl and practice enough law to make a living for his family evot
ing the rest of his time to working for certain public reforms il
which he is interested.
Mrs. Frances Folsom Cleveland, who, as the widow of ex-Presi
dent Cleveland, is also eligible for the pension, has not expressed
her views in the matter.
Washington oficialdom, however, Believes that President Taft
decision will mean the collapse of the scheme, for it sets a prece
dent which future ex-Presidents will hardly care to disregard.

TO CARVE UP NYE COUNTY
Report That Duckwater and Currant
Creek Wish to Join White Pine

Nye County stands IN excellent
chance of losing portion Of its vast
acreage at the coming session of the
Legislature. The residents Of the ex-
treme eastern end of the county are
anxious to have their territory annexed
90 White Pine, as it Is more convenient
TO transact business in Ely than in Tono-
pah. In speaking of the agitation that
is now being started. the Ely Record
has the following to say:
James Riordan of White River VAL
ley in Nye County. spent several days
in this city during the present week
and states that practically all residents
of the lower White River Valley, and
those of Ourrant Greek and the Duck
water country, are very anxious to be
cut off from Nye and annexed to White
Pine during the coming session OF the
Legislature. Their reasons for desiring
the change are that they are located
from $50 to 200 miles from Tonopah, the
county seat. which they seldom visit.
They do their business in Ely, which ia
the market for their supplies. Riordan
states that all the residents Of the Sec
tions named will sign petitions to the
Legislature praying to be annexed to
White Pine, and that it is probabl a
committee of citizens Of those sections
will attend the Legislature and work
for the passage of the proposed bill. for
which they will have the united support
of the delegation from this county.

Titanic Band Played Ragtime

Colonel Archibald Oracle, one of the survivors of the Titanic,
recently declared in Washington that the last music played by the
i'll fated ships band was not Nearer, My God, to Thee" but rag
time.
Colonel Oracle further insisted that the band did not play as
the ship went down, but had stopped some time before. Colonel
Oracle said in part:
"We men who were reassuring the women would have realized
instantly if the band had begun to play that hymn that panic would
have resulted from the familiar strains. Fixing the minds of the
passengers on the possibility of their being nearer to God, and I
say it seriously, would have been the last thing wanted The band
played light music, principally what is called ragtime, and if they
had started the famous hymn l think it certain we would have
stopped them, forcibly if necessary"
