ALL L HIGH 4t !a!$ Class 4 4, GOOD IqIl Law !|,,

There is d proposed bill before thA
Legislature to cut down the licenss
for prize fighting and making all
goes" ten-round affairs. 1t would
appear that this is useless bill and
one that needs elimination. The pres
ent law is an unlimited affair, which
means that there will be fight wher
men come together, and the thousand
dollar license prevents a lot of dis
graceful and robbing affairs, such as
are pulled off in other states Let
the prize fight alone Nevada is bes
coming too virtuous to permit OF any
monkeying with these crude affairs.

enCe was made to gossip regarding
the alleged endorsement of Fred
White of Reno. for postmaster at thai
place by Senator Newlands. This ru-
NOR has no foundation in fact states
Senator Pittman As Senator New
lands and he have agreed not to de
eide on any preference for federal ap-
pointments until the proper time
which probably means until the terms
of incumbents expire. The telegram
from Senator Pittman reads as fol-
lows:

ton that we will neither form moi

consider such matters together before

cation in your paper with regard TO
the postmaster at Reno was without

On Valentines evening all the girls
put their gifts on the big hall table
Poor Val felt very much ashamed when
she put her box of dainty rolls down
near dozens of beautiful, expensive ar
tlcles of clothing, besides such other
things' as painted pin cushions. photo
frames and jewelry boxes. And she
nung her head. crimson with confusion,
When some girls. not knowing she was

GREETED following her mothers advice
then the next moment felt ashamed
that she had blushed al everything her
mother had done.
After. the entertainment a gentleman,
w:Io had examined everything on the
table walked out on the stage and said
a few words to the girls to announce
who had won the prize.
Young ladies'" he began: Il have ex-
amined carefully the things exhibited
on the table. 1t was hard at first to
come to a decision. for all were desir-
able and many beautiful. Yet in con-
sideration of the fact that the work
to secure the prize must be the best,
l think l find that the most useful is
alU ays the best. and there Is nothing
more useful for girl to know than
how to make good bread. So l award
the prize to Miss Van Munson.''
The whole school arose and shouted
itself hoarse. Now, that they came to
think about 1t, the gentleman vas right.
AMI Val turned red now with pleasure
as Miss Richmond placed large book
OF the latest music in her hands for a
prize.
When the girls were leaving Miss
Richmond called Val into the parlor
and introduced her to the tall gentle
man. This Is the little girl YOU heard
sing at church last Sunday" she said.
II have noticed your voice" remarked
the gentleman kindly; and / also no
ticed your embarrassment about the
rolls when the girls first saw them. L
sat in the next room and saw through
the open door. ] am glad to see a girl
who does something useful bravely and,
besides. I have something else 20 tell
you. 1t is that l have made TO "our
mother for you a present of a free
scholarship in the Academy OF Music"
Val was too delighted to .eply, and
Garted home to her mother.
Il can run into the city three times a
week on the electric cars" she said
"and study all l wish, and it is all due
to those dear old rolls that | foolishly
felt ashamed of at first"
So she and her mother ate the rolls
and went to bed very happy.
