SUDDEN DEATH OF HARRY COWING
DUE TO A CLOT ON THE BRAIN

as Dr. Cowden was not at his office
DR.. Masterson was called. The lat

duced by a clot on the brain.
Deceased came here from Carson
City, where his parents live, and has
been identified with the camp for
the last seven years. He was known
as one Of the few old-time grainers
left in the country. as his work was
artistic and so correctly patterned
after the real thing that II was i'm
possible to tell the difference be
tween his imitation and the real col
oring OF nature. An illustration of
his adeptness is found in the furni-
ture Of the Tonopah Sewer and
Drainage company, where real ma
hogany and marble are matched with
the counterfeit The work was done
so cleyerly that no one can tell the
painted portion from the natural
wood and marble. He had just fin
ished redecorating the Elks' club
rooms, and some Of his handiwork is
visible in the different stations,
where the tops Of the tables appear
to be black marble, although they
are the clever execution OF Mr.. Cow
ing. He did all the interior decora-
tion OF the Mizpah and Goldfield
hotels, and also had the contract for
decorating the Hotel Utah at Salt

CURRENCY BILL
MAY Be ACTED
On TONIGHT
DELAYS ARE OVER AND NIGHT
SESSIONS or BOTH HOUSES
ORDERED.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 22.-The ad-
ministration currency bill in its final
form probably will be reported to
both houses of congress for approval
tonight. Members of the Joint con
ference committee labored until dawn
this morning considering minor diff
ferences of views in the two houses
to present a perfected measure,
which follows closely Wilson's ideas
of currency reform.
The general desire of legislators to
leave Washington for the holidays
caused an attempt at swift action
that Wilson might sign the bill to-
night and leave for his southern va
cation tomorrow, but a series of de-
lays developed. Copies Of the con
ference report we're late in coming
from the printers. The parliamen-
tary situation in both the house and
senate seemed TO favor delay

opinion that there win be greater

So far the applicants have been
national banks. from all parts Of the
country. Practically every request
came by telegraph. One was signed
by eleven national banks in Balti-
more; another came from Chicago, a
third from Arkansas, one from Wis

said TO be the first time in at least
three years that this rule has been
strictly enforced, though the boys
have at various times in the past
been told that it would be.
