Aurora Visitors.

i. II. Walker took Vic Bernard and
a party up to Aurora last Sunday and
Bud Daniels and wife went up to cclc-
brate Labor Day, as did Ernest Wag
oner and Muff Maher. The stunts
put on by the Aurora people for the
occasion were meritorious and all Of
the visitors had good time. The
''broncho busting was exciting as was
also the tug of-war between the Bodic
team and the Aurora team. Bodie won
the pull-up in minute and half with
a rope Bernard took up from Yering
ton. A Bodie man was heard to re
mark that il the slack had been taken
out OF the rope before it was used the

out-pull any Yerington team, give or
take so pounds, and the money is up
in the Bank Saloon. Yerington for

The Nevada State Fair management
desire to announce that, III addition TO
the racing program, live stock exhl-
bItion, and many other attractions at
their agricultural park during the sea-
son OF the State Fair. that they have
secured the famous high diving horses
and sensational show OF Doctor Car
yer, who holds the reputation OF being
the crack shot of the world.
The exhibition of DR. Carvers div
ing horses is pronounced to be the
greatest and most sensational show OF
its kind i'll the world, comprising acts
so startling and stupendous sights as
never yet beheld new sensations
sparkling with originality and dehcs
all attempts at competition or rivalry.
Animals taught to dive from a plat
form from sixty to eighty feet III
height into a tank Of water only eight
feet in depth seems too marvellous Tor
belief. There will be one leap each
day from the platform fifty feet high
with young lady astride. Miss Lo-
rena Lorenz, a beautiful young lady
known in the Middle States and Cali
fornia and localities where this cxhi-
bition has been presented, as the Girl
in Red" will risk her life on the intel
ligence OF dumb animal The horse,
true to his training, shows human in
telect in his preparation Tor the pos
sible dip of death.
This attraction will be introduced at
the California State Fair at Sacra
mento. and after the performance at
Reno. will entertain the people OF
Fresno county during the session OF
their district fair BY those who have
witnessed these great acts performed
at other places pronounce them to be
most wonderful and should not be
missed by those who can find it con
venent to attend the Nevada State
Fair.
The management desires to also an
nounce that there will be very large
exhibition OF live stock OF all classes,
nearly every section OF the State will
be represented by an exhibit OF some
kind. it has become necessity for the
construction OF many more exhibit
stalls to accommodate demands al

The pavilion exhibition will also be
an interesting feature. MI space in

DISREGARD THE SPEED LIMIT
LAWS.
Horse and Rider Nearly Thrown
From Bridge Into River.

Despite the fact that signs of warn
ing are posted at every approach to
the city, innumerable instances of dis
regard OF automobile drivers to slow
down to eight miles an hour can be
noticed every day and not until some
one is killed, perhaps. will the wisdom
of the speed regulation law be rec
ognized.
Last Sunday evening citizen cross
ing the bridge near the Copper Belt
came very nearly being thrown. to-
gether with the horse he was riding,
over the bridge railing into the stream.
An automobile coming from the north
rushed onto the bridge. and on the
wrong side. was about to run over the
horseman. who to avoid collision turn
ed his horse. but was struck by the
machine and~the animal almost thrown
down The rider escaped serious in
Jury. but not so the poor animal which
is. perhaps. manned for life.
There certainly should be State
law. and il should be strictly enforced,
prohibiting persons from driving auto
mobiles until they show they are fully
competent to run a wheel barrow. for
most amateur auto sharps think a trip
is void Of interest unless they hurt or
kill some one or some thing-that is
if the amateur is a male If a woman,
travelling is a little less dangerous, as
she always seems to obtain the in
fnitv OF delight if She can splash mud
on the clean skirts of the less fortu-
nate sister. whom circumstances set
afoot in the road

Sales Of clectrolytic copper at l6M
