"This resolution has been framed af-
ter much consideration In the belief
and expectation that 1t will be effa-
cious in preventing manipulation. The
object of the rule, as Is apparent from
its language. is to prohibit the giving
of orders which viii not result in a
change OF ownership or the execution
Of such odres by brokers with knowl-
edge of the fact that there will be
no such change. 1t Is proposed to take
further action on other matters
Various committee of the exchange
are still at work upon rules to prevent
operations and transactions which have
been criticised. The conclusions OF the
committee, President Mabon said, are
to be submitted 70 the governors from
time to time
The resolution adopted today hits
more directly at the subject which has
occupied public attention ever since the
agitation against alleged exchange
abuses began. 1t deals specifically with
some of the evils pointed out in the
report of the Hughes commission sey-
eral years ago.
Officials of the exchange declined to
comment on the bills introduced at Al
bany, one of which bore directly on
the resolution adopted at today's meet

A MAD RACE
FOR MONEY
Two Preachers Enter the Race and Make
Marathon of Elko Streets---Nim-
bic Dollar Proved too Elusive
for One of Our Elo-
quent Divines.

Harness of the Baptist Church was
his intended victim. Luckily for
one of Elko's popular pastors, he
was away from home, and then a
wild rush was made to find another
victim. Messenger boys, telephone
and wireless telegraphy were called
into requisition, on the spur of the
moment. The dignified and scholar
ly Mr. Price of the Episcopal church
was got on the end of the wire just
at train time. Visions of silver dol
lars as big as cart wheels danced
before the clerical eyes, as he
grabbed his hat and flew down tine
street to catch the train. Luckily
the train was a few minutes late
and he met the would-be bride
groom who was to escort him to
the scene of carnage. All this
time the wires were still working
and Rev Mr. Tower, the supply, in
MIR Grenfield's absence was con-
nected with. He, too, was open
for all engagements of this Kind.
Dollar diplomacy is his long suit
but the Episcopal divine had him
beat to a frazzle. He had copped
the coin and was reclining in a leis-
urely fashion on the cushions of
the tourist car, when Rev. Mr. Tow
er hove in sight. His hair was
streaming in the wind and per-
speration oozing from every pore,
as he grabbed the tail emo of the
train, at great risk of life and
limb. AS a runner he is a wonder
but he started too late to win. AS
soon as he caught his breath he
hustled into the car where the par
son and the bridegroom-to be, were
seated. The look that came over
his face showed that he was a
superb actor and game loser. He
look his medicine like a little man
and MIR. Price took the customary
fee and thus the comedy was ended.

A THRIVING INDUSTRY
The Verdi Lumber Co.'S Lo-
cal Branch Worthy of
Your Attention

Few who pass the yards of the
Verdi Lumber Company in this town
are fully aware of the operations
of this Company in our midst. For
this reason we give few interest
ing facts as to this corporation,
and the activities of it's local branch
in Elko.
The local branch is managed by
Mr. L Johnson, who was formerly
manager of the W L Smith Co.'S,
hardware Dept. This. local plant
was opened last July, and carries
approximately a million feet Of
lumber in stock. The Company
employ five men in Elko, besides
the manager and plan to incresae
their yards along the Southern
Pacific tracks as soon as the
ground can be secured. ..
The Verdi Lumber Company in
Elko, besides carrying building
materials of all kinds, are also
handling implements. They are ex-
elusive agents for the Deering
mowers, rakes and binders. The
celebrated Moline plows, cultivators
and harrows, the Monitor drills
and the Jenkins Buck rakes They
also sell sugar, -four, dairy aud
stock salt, grain, building and
roofing materials, besides all kinds
of sash. and doors.
The Verdi Lumber Company is a
Nevada corporation, and have
their mills at Verdi, Nevada. They
have retail prices and wholesale
yards at Reno, Winnemucca, Tono-
pah, Lovelock, Goldfield. Fallon and
Elko. The pay roll is approximate
ly $50,O00,00 per month: The
output of the mill per year is
about I00,000,0U0 feet A good
part of this lumber is shipped to
The middle Western States, to be
used in the sash and door factories.
Their box and sash factory is To-
Gated at Verdi. The mill is mod
ern, and is as up to date as any on
the Pacific coast. Nothing is wasted.
Even the sawdust is forced into the
furnace and burned as fuel.
So endeth little preachment on
the Verdi Lumber Company and if
there is a moral it is this-Boost
d Nevada Industry.

built their own reservoir which

Last Friday as No. 3 was nearing
our peaceful and thriving city
comedy was enacted on our publ ic
streets which makes Paul Revere's
historic ride, look like very
tame affair. Laura Secord's ride
will live in history as a shining eX-
ample of female bravery. She
rode several miles in the still hours
of night, to warn the British at
Londy's Lane, in the war of 1912
of an impending attack contemplate
ed by the American forces. For
that act she is a heroine in British
history. The way through the dark
woods was made dangerous by pres.
ence of numerous bands of Indians
on the war path. She faced all
danger and rode to Stoney Greek
and warned the British, thus saw
ing the day for their troops. Her
monument stands today on Lundy's S
Lane battle ground, at Niagara
Falls as a memento of her wild
ride "Sherdan's ride" with Win
chester, 20miIes away is still fresh
in the minds of the older ones and
the beautiful example Of American
poesy, which was given birth from
inspiration gained by 81 eridan's
famous ride, is much admired by
every school boy who loves to trill

rible "grumble, rumble and roar"
with Sheridan 20 miles away.
As Kipling would say That's
another story" The Elko preach
ers were running for coin of the
realm. Would you believe it? A
real race for few paltry dollars.
Yet, sad to relate, it is the gos-
pei truth. Last Friday a gallant
