10 Greatly discussed and too little

one of the best short stories OF this

Ambrose Berce is. of course. not I'M

lead US to think he would be. Ro-
nance, essay and criticism are fields
which he has entered, and satire, po-

him. His fame and name are grow

DEPARTMENT IS
TO INVESTIGATE

THE Interior DEPARTING. has
decided to send a field officer to
Winnemucca 10 look over the situa-
iton Ia see if it is considered ad-
visable to establish an Indian
school here. This is the first time,
it Is believed that the Department
has ever sent any one to this town
to Investigate Indian conditions.
The action of the Indian office was
taken in response to a petition
recently circulated in Winneucca
asking that the government buy
land and establish a school for
Indians. The petition was made
Thoroughly representative of the
best interests of the community
in the class of signatures OBJ tanned,
being signed by all business firm
and individuals. professional men,
representatives of all the churches.
and by every school teacher in
town. The business or occupation
of every signer was placed opposite
the name. so it could be seen what
class of people signed. The action
Of the Department indicates the
petition carried weight.
A short time previous to the
circulating of this petition another
petition signed exclusively by
Indians was sent into Washington,
but nothing has been heard from
it. This appeal of the unlettered
Piutes probably has it's share in
influencing sction by the Indian
office.-llumboldt Star.

SAFE ROBBED At FA|RVIEW

One of the most daring safe
robberies ever pulled off in this
part of the state and one of the
most remunerative to the per-
petrators, occurred n Fairview
Saturday morning between the
hours of 2:30 and 500 A. M,
when the Fairview hotel and bar
safe combination was worked sue
ccssfully and the contents, amount
ing to $5l7 removed. Frank Aven,
of Avcn & Green, owners of the
place. came on shift in he morning,
and as things did not seem dis
turbed, did not discover the loss
until some hours later, after he
had opened the safe to get money to
pay a bill.
Enterance into the bar was
effected through a window, the
screen covering being torn from
its place. The work was done as
quietly as it was effectively and no
clue has yet been had as to who
we're the guilty party or parties.
That it was either one we'll acquain-
ted with the safe and it's secrets
or an expert who can do such
things in the twinkling of an eye
without knowledge of the combina-
tion is apparent when it is known
that the safe is a high priced one,
equipped with four tumbler lock.

day and placed what data he had in

The Nevada State University

May ll,l912
DIR. Joseph E. Stubs, President
University of Nevada,
Reno, Nevada,
NV Dear President Stubs:
The payment falling due next
month would make the fifth and
final amount due under my guaran-
tee Of 1907 whereby the Mackay
School of Mines was to receive the
sum of $4,000 per annum for the
instruction of the students attend
ing the University of Nevada.
Ever since the completion of
the Maekay School of Mine, have
watched its development with the
keenest interest and no little pride.
lhave as, you are aware, kept in
touch on the outcome. and had
made up my mind that once a
standard had been set there must
be no backward step. The result
Of my observation has been that
to use a plain Americanism- the
Mackay School of Mines, under
wise and able guidance of yourself
and its instructors, has made good,
and it is with the deepest gratifi-
cation and pleasure that my mother
and l wish to formally notify you
that We will each donate $50
shares, par value $4,000. and
yearly income of $4,000. for the
purpose of endowing the Mackay
School of Mines, in order that the
future generations may have the
advantages of a mining education,
which may help them to go out and
grapple successfully with the
world. 1t would seem particularly
appropriate that this gift should
be made in shares of company
bearing our name, the origin of
which was made possible by the
soil of Nevada.
Let me ask you to convey to the
students attending the Mackay
School of Mines the following
message, which i hope will not
only serve as motto for them,
but for succeeding generations,
and that is, Keep your standard
of life high"
With cordial good wishes on
Com mencement Day to yourself,
Regents, Trustees, Faculty and
Alumni of the University, | am
Your faithfully,
Singned:
