legion. Severals Of the vessels
which were wrecked in close proxi-
nifty to the scene of the Titanic dis
aster are even said to reappear in
the same spot on certain occasions.
The Packet Light is one of these,
and the story runs that whenever
storm is threatened ball of fire
energies from the spot where the
ship sinks, which presently forms
itself into the shape of vessel and
then sinks and disappears.
King George v and his brother
the late Duke of Clarence, when
on their cruise in the Bacchante
from 1879 to 1882, are stated to
have seen the; phantom of the Fly
ling Dutchman, and the Duke mem
toned the fact in his diary under
date Of July IL, 1881.
A thtee-masted frigate is said
to haunt the English channel in the
vicinity of the Owen lightship
whenever gale or snowstorm is
threatened. Hundreds of people
have declared that they have seen
the apparition and heard the cries
of the ghostly passengers. 1t is
sometimes said to be the phantom
of the Eurydice, which went down
off the Isle of Wight on March "a,
1878, involving the loss of about
200 lives.
There are host of vessels which
have not been heard of since they
sailed, but one of the most marvel.

Celeste, French passenger-sailing
ship. She was sighted by the
British ship Highlands on October

LABOR DAY PROCLAMATION

Among enlightened peoples labor
has come to be honored as the
foundation Of all that is of true
value in civilization. Therefore,
in compliance with law and custom,
On Monday, September 2. 1912, All
citizens Of the State of Nevada are
requested to unite in appropriate
observance testifying their appreci-
ton and to show due honor to those
on whose Drawn and skill of hands
rests the welfare of civilization.
History discloses that the toilers
in field, forest and mine. whose
labor supplies the necessities and
comforts for all have not, in many
cases, received the just equivalent
of their contribution to society.
1t is the spirit of enlightened labor
today, to strive for it's right to a
square deal. Patient, persistent
and law-abiding effort to this and
is perfecting its alliance with public
sentiment. For it comes to be re-
cognized as the work of the
Twentieth century that society
must be recognized on the basis of
each mans entitleuent to the
equivalent cf his services to the
world-no less and no more.
