ARCHITECT engage
IN FAST BATTLE

TITLE OF "RENo's FIGHT
ING ARCHITECT"

ed on Main street late Saturday aft
ernoon when Henry Kuhlman, of the
contracting firm of Kelliher and
Kuhlman, who are building the new
school house, and S. II. Newton, con
sulting architect for Geo. A. Ferris
of Reno, who drew the plans and
specifications for the structure, met
in brief battle. The scene was in
front of the Nyco building and
when the smoke Of battle had clear
ed bystanders declared Newton to
be the winner.
An argument over the following
of the specifications was the direct
cause of the trouble. 1t is Newton's S
duty to see that the plans and speci-
fications are followed without ex-
ception and slight argument arose
in this connection while the two
were in the Tonopah Hardware com
pany. Kuhlman invited Newton to
take off his glasses and Newton in
yited Kuhlman to go out in the
street. Both accepted the invitation
and once in the street the battle
opened. 1t ragged furious for a min
ute or two, during which time the
two were locked in anything but g
fond embrace. Kuhlman was the
larger of the combatants, but size
had been terminated it was noted
that he carried more marks of the
conflict than did his opponent Or
the other hand the left hand New
ton sustained sprained wrist
No arrests were made.

State governments
Some criticism of this charter has
been INDUCED in by former Council
man Terrell Surely he has not care
fully compared the revised charter
with the old one. SO far as clothing
the police officers with proper uni
form etc, the language in the re-
vised charter was copied exactly from
the old charter. No change at all
AS concerns the fire department.
the language is almost Identical The
old charter states that the members
of this department must remain at
the various engine houses to which
they are assigned and must give their
entire time 10 the service Of the city.
This is all the revised charter does.
The matter Of Off days, vacations.
meal hours, etc is simply a detail
which the board in charge will regu-
late under the revised charter. just as
the BOARD Of Fire Masters has done
under the old charter

plovees viii be out OF job on the

taken In the first place the civil
service and pension systems are re-
tanned as at present the same now

revised charter gives 10 the Genera,

change whatever in these respects

vised charter clearly states that all
