BIG SUCCESS

The High Jinx given by the Moose

and the witty speeches that were
made showed that the Moose have
a keen sense of humor; others
spoke of the good work that the
order is doing and several of the
speakers showed a familiarity with
the work of the supreme lodge
which showed that they have been
keeping in close touch with that
body.
In addition to the speeches the

nopah hand and the Moose demand
ID encore after encore and the mu-
sicians, with good fellowship, play
I'd until they could play no more.

provided was most heartily appre-
lated and the Moose walters did
the honors in a manner that dem

IN CONQUEST OF AIR

MINELA, n. Y. July 3O.-A
series of experiments is to be un-
1ertaken on the aviation field here
This week which may mark a not
able advance on the conquest of
the air. Experts from the signal
corps of the state national guard
will try out a new device for calm
ing the air waves in the immediate
vicinity of a flying aeroplane by
means of wireless transmission OF
electricity. The theory is that the
wireless will control the air cur
rents in much the same way as oil
noured on storm tossed sea stills

HORSES PROVE
TO BE PUZZLE

The state of Nevada has adopted
a horse which it does not want, but
which it has no legal right to have
killed and not right to give away,
says the Gazette
It has this horse under quaran-
tine and according to an opinion
of Attorney General Cleve Baker
the state must keep the horse un-
der quarantine but cannot kill it.,
The horse is said to have the gland
ers, a number of experts having de-
clared the animal to be suffering
from this disease.
The horse was purchased by
Frank Silva in February. 1911. and
in August of the following year
Dr T. F. Richardson, then state
veterinarian, ordered the horse
placed in quarantine. Silva claimed
that the horse did not have the
glanders and protested against il
being placed in quarantine. Tests
were made by DR.. Peterson of Reno
and DR.. Mack of the university
both reporting that the horse had
glanders A movement test was
then made with the same result.
The horse has been in quarantine
all this time and is growing fat Sc
far Silva has been providing The
hay but it is stated that he will
demand that the state reimburse
him for the hay he has furnished
up to this time.

Word was received on Friday
from Il. o. Patterson, receiver OF
the Nye & ormsby County bank,

his promise made at a banquet in
Goldfield some time ago. to pur-
chase the golden spike which was
used to mark the completion into
Goldfield Of the T. & G. railroad,
SAYS the Goldfield Tribune.
The spike was hooked to the
bank several years ago by Alonzo
Trip. formerly manager of the
road, and some time ago was sent
to the Goldfield Commercial asso-
citation at the instance of President
Detch and other directors. who
wished to have 1t preserved as a
souvenir of the early days of the
camp and to prevent its being melt
ed down for the gold 1t contains.
Since its arrival here the spike
which was shown for time in the
Tribune window. has reposed in
the vault at the Tribune office foI
safe keeping and on Friday evening
1t was turned over to the official:
of the Commercial association who
in turn, will deliver 1t to the Off
cials Of the r. & G. railroad.
