DEATH OF JOHN TORRE
Well Known and Highly Respected
Former Eurekan Passes at Alarmed.

- ~
A telegram was received in Eu-
reka on Wednesday announcing the
death early that morning at Ala
media, California, of John Tore. a
well known former citizen of Eureka
County. Mr.. Tore was of advanced
age and had been in declining health
for some length of time.
Mr.. Tore was a pioneer citizen of
Eureka County, coming here in the
early days of the camp. He COM
menced business in a small way by
keeping a store, later engaging in
the charcoal burning business, and
during the active period of smelling
IN this camp was largely in control
OF that industry. When the smelt-
ers closed down he engaged in ranch
ing and stock raising, conducting the
John Tore ranch, now owned by H.
Parmagini, eight miles north of Eu-
reka, until his departure for Cali
fornla about Is years ago. Since
his departure from here he has made
his home at Alameda, California, but
was interested with his nephew,
Vincent Tore, in a vineyard at
Cuperinto, in the Santa Clara valley,
| California.
By his honesty and uprightness the
deceased won the esteem and conf
dence of those with whom he had
business and other dealings, and at
one time a considerable amount of
private and other business was done
by him for his fellow countrymen
here. Subsequently he was elected
by the people of this county to two
positions of trust and prominence,
one as County Treasurer and the
other as State Senator to the Ne
vada Legislature. He was a mem
Der of both the Masonic and Odd
Fellows lodges.
No other particulars but the simple
announcement of his death have been
received here. His wife and nephew,
Vincent Tore, are the near relatives
who survive him and were at his
bedside when the end came. De-
ceased was a native of Italy and 65
years of age.

GRAND cHANcEll0R's VISIT
f. T. Damn of Reno Pays An Of
hclal Visit to Beatifc Lodge
In Eureka

The members of Beatihc Lodge
No. 2, Knights of Pythias, at their
regular meeting held on the 18th
instant were favored by a visit from
Grand Chancellor F. P. Damn, who is
making a tour of the State by auto.
paying an official visit to all the
Pythian Lodges of the Domain. He
arrived in Eureka Tuesday after
noon, from Austin, and departed
Wednesday morning for Ely, where
ne was scheduled to meet with White
Pine Lodge that night.
Considering the business depression
that has prevailed in and around
Eureka for the past three years,
there was a very good attendance to
greet the distinguished visitor.
After the regular routine business
of the Lodge was attended to, the
Grand Chancellor was introduced,
who delivered a most eloquent and
earnest address on the obligations
and benefits of fraternal orders,
tracing the order of Knights of
Pythias, from its inception by Justus
II. Rathbone, February 10, 1864, to
the present time an order that in
the comparatively short time of AZ
years has reached a membership of
nearly 500, 900.
The Pythians of Nevada are to be
congratulated on having as the di-
recting head of their order in this
State so able and earnest a Knight
as Fred P. Damn.
After the ceremonies in the lodge
room were concluded, the members
with their guest repaired to the
banquet room, where a repast was
served and good cheer reigned until
a late hour, when the members bade
their honored guest God speed, feel
ing that Beatifc Lodge had been
greatly benefited by his visit.

TEXT BOOK LAW IS EXPLAINED
State Superintendent Bray sug-
gests Means of Avoiding Short
School Terms

That the school year may be short
ened if the new free school text book
law is literally enforced is the state
ment of Superintendent of Public
instruction j. E. Bray in a circular
sent out to the various school dis
tricts and officers in the State. Su-
perintendent Bray suggests that if
parents and teachers cooperate so
that books now in use may be used
during the term and no demand be
made for new ones except in excep-
tional cases, it may be that the
school year will not be shortened.
The circular sent out states the
new law is mandatory and requires
school districts to furnish text books
free to school children. There is no
provision made, however, for pro-
viding the money to pay for the
books. If the money be taken from
the general fund it will mean that
there will not be enough to continue
the schools the entire term.
At present nearly all children are
provided with school books purchased
by parents beforeethe new law was
passed. These books run in a series
so that in many cases a family has
enough books to provide the chill
dren with the required texts. Copy
books, drawing books and such sup
plies, however, are used up each
year and will necessarily be pur-
chased anew.

Mining Deal Being Delayed

As far as the SENTINEL can learn,
there are no new developments re
garding the deal by which Samue
Newhouse and associates are to take
over and develop a number of Pros
pect Mountain mining properties
1t is surmised that Mr.. Newhouse'S
attorneys are now going over the
titles to the properties furnished II
the abstracts recently sent to Salt
Lake and that the completion of this
work is probably causing the delay
in closing up the deal.

Chloe Westcott of Grand Island,
Nebraska; Mrs. Canfield's death at
the hands of a discharged chauffeur
some seven years ago was a terrible
shock to the family and to friends.
While devoting all possible time
and affection on his family Mr.. Can
field steadily maintained his interest
in charities, and particularly in the
line of those which cared for young
men and girls.
His contributions to the Mckinley
Home for Boys have been constant
and large; in fact, barring one man,
Mr.. Canfield's subscriptions were the
most generous known to the d.
rectors of the home.
After he saw that institution for
boys well based he turned his atten-
ton to doing something of the same
nature for young girls who were de-
prived of homes; he projected a
large institution of this kind and Sc
cured the land for it at Monticello,
near Whittier; his plan was to de-
vote a million dollars to this work +;
whether this has been accomplished
or would be carried through by a
provision in his will could not be
a~scertained yesterday.
Dependent on his personal liking
for them were a large number of his
| old associates on the frontier mining
firing line; these would assemble at
his offices every first of the month
and would be well taken care of
until next pay day; these bene-
ficiaries were in no manner given as
charities, but the recipients were
made to understand that the money
was given as from one friend to
another.

without growing rich himself his
natural turn of mind led him to seek
another's and not his own wealth
Promoters placed before him
stock selling proposition. They leu
him to believe that system OF wire
less telephones could be installed
throughout Texas and Oklahoma. The
dreamer that he was, Dickinson be-
lieved it. He was a man who could
see diamonds where others could see
only dirt. He was charged with US
ing the mails to defraud and was con-
victed and sentenced to the federal
J,rison. Dickinson never wanted
money that belonged to others. he
never sought to rob any man. All
he saw was the great system OF wire
less telephony, all he wanted was to
figure in such a progressive move
that his name might be written upon
the pages of history, that whole towns
might be benefited by the progressive
work he was doing. Dickinson never
loved money so well that he would d.
wrong to obtain it.
On the theory that he was pre-
sumed to know what the men back
of him were doing he was convicted.
His wife could not bear up under
the burden and when Dickinson Is
given his liberty he will still be In
greater bondage, because he can never
pull himself up out of the slough OF
despondency which the death OF his
wife will cast about him.
Some day there will be better means
of dealing with law breakers than
depriving them of their liberties and
of their usefulness.

bond issue. The good people or TINS
CITY have never turned down the
school board on any proposition they
asked for. and it looks reasonable that
they will not do so tomorrow.
The BOARD give their service to the
city. they devote great deal OF time
to the work. they have managed the
school so we'll that they occupy first
rank today in the schools of the state.
The board wants the school district
which comprises the city OF Ardmor7
to vote in bonds $4,000 for the pur-
pose Of installing heating plants In
the four ward school buildings.
Their reasons are these: Sixteen
hundred children are taught In the
ward buildings. Since gas has been
depended upon for heat, TIE schools
have dismissed three days each win
ter. different rooms have suspended
several times, teachers and pupils
have occupied these rooms and trleu
to work when the mercury ranged
from 30 to Sc. As n matter Of fact no
useful work can be done In coid
weather. Glasses get behind with
their work, interest Is lost and the
schools demoralized more or less. The
hoard wants to take out the gas
stoves and put in furnaces to use coal.
They tried a cheaper plan last winter
and bought coal stoves anu
installed them. The flues
were not properly built for them and
the SCOT and coal smoke filled tho
rooms and no work could be done.
The eyes of the pupils were injured
by the dense smoke and their CLOTH
ing and faces were covered with the
coal SCOT. The supply OF gas, when
it is needed most, has been low and
II will be low in the years to come
Many parents very sensibly kept their
children away from school during the
severe weather. Sitting in a room
where water will freeze will cause
colds. sore throat and tonsilitis and
often leads to tuberculosis. The
child cannot resist these exposures
like the grown people can. The chill
is at the mercy OF the district, he must
accept what his parents give him at
the ballot box. The board believes
The Daily Ardmoreite. [volume] (Ardmore, Okla.) 1893-current, 1913-07-18

that there will be a saving In the
fuel bill OF possibly one-third ana II
knows that much better work can DC
done and that much better health pro
lection can be given the children II
It is given the money to use.
The cost will be on TIE present TAX
valuations 1Oc on the one THOUSAND
dollars. The man who pays on So'ooo
will pay fifty cents a year TO Keep
his child warm and all the other chii-
dren of the town. Fifty cents gives
tbo child several days more OF school
each year. Fifty cents protects 'he
child from exposure. Fifty Genus
nrotects the health of five hundred
Ardmore girls who are growing INTO
womanhood. When the benefits are
weighed against the cost it does not
seem reasonable tina. single voter
in the aity will cast negative No'e
in that election Saturday.
This Is not an oterdrawn picture

fits and the cost jus as they exist II

WE hope to see the mothers OF the
town become active Saturday. They
owe It to their children and to the
children Of the town to work through
out the entire day. A bare majority
will not vote the bonds. The issue
must receive sixty per cent of the
votes cast The issue ought to re-
ceive every vote in the city.
