HOUSING DELEGATES
BACK STATE CODE
TContinued from First Page1

Church concluded their sessions. Most
of the delegates left the city on after
noon trains.
With D. w. Harper, of Erie, as
chairman, the sessions were optn-
ed this morning with paper by
Edgar A. Weimer, of Lebanon,
president OF the. State building code
commission. MIR. Weimer, unable to
attend, sent William Walker johnson
in his stead. Mr.. Weimer's paper
pointed out the absolute necessity of
having a comprehensive building code
to replace the sporadic laws now scat
tered through many statutes. He
pointed out that such q code would
protect all parties, builders as well as
tenants. The housing problem Is one
that will in the near future, If it does
not now, concern State and nation, he
said, and the State should take an
active interest in 1t. Mr.. Weimer point
Ell out that while housing conditions
were perhaps more acute in the cities,
they also were better looked after in
the big centers, and that the need of
the small town and of rural communi-
ties for building, housing and sanitary
laws was equally insistent
Many Foolish LAWS
John ]. Murphy, commissioner of
the tenement house department Of
New York city followed. After COM
mending Mr.. Weimers plea for a codi-
fication of building laws and State su-
pervision OF housing, he presented an
interesting description of some of the
difficulties attending the work in New
York city, with it's dense population
and large influx of foreigners. He
pointed out the number of foolish and
inadequate laws that numbered the
statute books, as we'll as commencing
much good legislation that has been
accomplished the past several years.
Following Mr.. Murphy's address
came August Hitler, chief accountant
and statistican of the Pittsburgh board
of public education, who read a very
practical paper on financing, pointing
out some of the difficulties that are
met by the man of moderate means in
securing his own dwelling, and sug-
gesting several ways by which the
problem might be met While not
advocating direct State aid, Mr.. Hill
Ter suggested that at least some sort
of public fund might be used for the
purpose of helping the man of mede-
rate means erect his own home, the
fund to return only a small amount of
interest.
Congressman Warren Worth Bailey
Of Johnstown, was unable to be pres
ent at the meeting and sent his re-
grets by letter which arrived this
morning.. He was to have spoken ON
taxation.

BUSBY'S MINSTRELS
MADE A GREAT HIT

Busby's Minstrels certainly made a
hit with the Klamath Falls people last
night. The big tent was packed and
"the best ever was the general YER
diet Of ALL
Every member Of Busby's Minstrels
proved to be an artist. Their songs
were the original old negro songs of
the south as well as the very latest
on the vaudeville stage today. Effie
Moore's singing was typical of the
old time southern eolored girl, while
the performance was the best min
strel work ever seen in this city. The
cake walking and dancing was excel
lent In fact the entire show was not
only good, but was clean from start
to finsh, there not being anything that
smacked of rowdyism or what could
be called out of place by the most
critical audience.-Klamath News. :.

Nixon opera house Tuesday July %.

THREATENS SUIT
AGAINST ESPE[

Judge George A. Shea had rather an
unfortunate experience with South
ern Pacific conductor at Hazen last
night. He went to Reno Thursday ev-
ening, on No. 49,, buying a 30-day
day round-trip ticket at the local
station. BY some error the dater had
been turned back two months, so that
the date on the ticket read May 16,
instead of July Is. This mistake was
not noticed on the trip going down,
given both railroad and sleeping ear
tickets to the Pullman conductor and
retired, he was awakened as the train
reached Hazen by the train conduct
or and Informed that his ticket had
expired. A cash fare was demanded
t. Winnemucca, and the Judge went
into his trousers to get the money,
when he found that he had but lit
tie over $500 in cash. He rendered
his check for the amount, but it was
refused. He then offered the conduct
or his haid baggage. watch and chain
and clothes as security for the amount
until the train reached Winnemucca,
but this offer was declined. He was
then elected from the train. He at
tempted to get check cashed in Haz-
en-, but was unknown, and the story
having been circulated about he was
looked upon as suspicious character.
A Southern Pacific special officer at
Hazen became acquainted with the
situation, wired Winnemucca. and
found the facts to be as claimed
Judge Shea was then furnished with
transportation home, arriving on No
10 this morning
He intimates that an action for
damages will be instituted against the
company.

SHIFTING BUSINESS CEN
TIERS IN NEW YORK CITY

The casual New Zealander Cor even
the ordinary New Yorker of, say,
ten years standing) who walks
through what used 40 be the center Of
retail business activity below, above
and about Madison Square, nowadays,
receives a vivid object lesson in the
rapidity and completeness with which
business neighborhoods have shifted
in this town within recent years.
And in that particular district evi-
dence is not lacking that its flown
tenants will be replaced almost imme-
diately with others whose business is
no less substantial and important be-
caue il is not a fashionable retail
trade. The buildings, apparently, are
not to be allowed TO stand empty even
for single season, so urgent is the
demand for commercial housing.
The rapid entrance of retail trade
into the cross streets above Fortysec-
ond street, along the line of Fifth
avenue, has been one of the most
noticeable features since the develop
ment Of that new garden of retail
trade. While great castles of retail
business have risen along the avenue
itself, countless little shops of every
decription have prung up almost over
night in the cross streets, until al
ready the purely residential character
of the district between Madison and
Sixth avenues, in that latitude, has
disappeared. Property holders agree
ments and restrictions against the use
of houses for business have melted
like nowflakes in a warm wind.
The most recent manifestation OF
this irresistible tendency is the de
cision of the trustees of Columbia
college to permit the owners of build
ings on Columbia leaseholds to rent
these buildings for business uses
Much of this property lies between
Fifth and Sixth avenue and Forty
eighth and Fifty-frst streets. 1t is
said to be the hope of the trustees
to maintain the district as a semi
residential district, and one in which
light retail business is carried on, un
ii. their ground leases expire in 1928
Real estate dealers express doubts
that the flow of general trade can be
restricted even as long as that. But
at present the spray of the milliner'
and dressmakers and "little shops
novelty shops of every kind is break
ing high over all the residences ir
that part of town, and the tide is ris
ing very fast.-New York Evening
Star.

COMMISSION AD-
YISES SHIPPERS

Railroad Commission of Nevada, Car
son City, Nevada, July 16, 1914.
T, All Shipper and Receivers of
Freight:
During the next few months the
preponderance of traffic will be out
bound from Nevada, thereby lessen
ing the number of cars which will be
available for local traffic.
The Commission respectfully re-
quests that shippers and receivers of
freight in carload lots use every effort
t., load and unload cars in less than
forty-eight hours free time permitted
under our demurrage rules.
Shippers are also requested to load
ears to full capacity, which will ma
terially reduce the number of cars
needed to handle their business.
Railroads are requested to handle
promptly, when billed, all carload
shipments and to move empty cars to
loading points without delay; also to
repair promptly for service all Grip
pied and bad order cars.
The Commission feels that a CO.
operation of shippers and railroads
will assist materially in preventing a
serious car shortage.
Respectfully,
RAILROAD COMMISSION OF NE
VADA.

sheets of practically solid gold. The
blance of the five feet will run in the
neighborhood of $4,000 per ton.
As fast as the high grade is taken
out it is being sacked and shipment
will be made to Selby smeltcr during
the coming week.
Mr.. Dwyer came in to buy lumber
and supplies, which will be sent out

they can be used.
Last evening n p. r. Hatch, one of
the partners, telephoned Mr.. Dwyer

"What shall ! do with it. Danf' in
quired Hatch "Oh, use it for a pa
per weight or throw it away was
the reply. "There will be enough left
