SAYS NO ERROR MADE
 IN AWARDING PRIZES

In reply to a request for an expla- nation from County Demonstration Agent John w. Earlier, who was in charge of the boys and girls club ex- hibits at the Faulkner county fair which closed last Saturday, Assistant State Agent w. J. Jernigan says that an error in awarding prizes in the contests was made. The explanation received by MT. Earlier follows: l"Mr. Jno. W. Earlier, Conway, Ark. |: Dear Sir-As per your request, am writing you regarding the award ing of prizes at your county fair.
 There is an error in your cata- logue in arrangement of the rules for awarding prizes. In awarding your county prizes nothing was taken into consideration except the 1O-ear ex- hibit; yield, profit or written history was not taken into account in award ing the county premiums. The same applies to the girls. This same rule applies to the state fair premiums. The only premiums in which the yield, profit and written history are reckon ed are the state premiums that are open to all boys in the state, such as scholarships, etc.
 'I trust this will make the matter lclear.
 Yours very truly,
 "W. J. Jernigan, Assistant State Agent, in Charge of Demonstration Club Work"
 MT. Earlier said today he had been criticised by several because one young woman who had one of the largest exhibits in the canning club department failed to receive highest honors, and that he hopes the letter from MT. Jernigan will explain the situation fully.

to the status Of affairs in Nevada,
where 90 much Of the land included
in the Central Pacific grant may
be mineral bearing, says the Reno
Gazette.
That the discovery of minerals
on land patented by the Southern
Pacific company cannot affect the
patent under the supreme court,
decision was stated today by Judge
George S. Brown, local counsel for
the company.
Heretofore it is said the popular
impression has been that a man
could stake tut y mineral claim
anywhere he found minerals and
GUST the former owner Of the land.
Such action is declared clearly
out of question, legally. The
courts decision is interpreted as
meaning that mineral locations may
be Gade on lands under grant to
the railroad company but not on
lands owned under patent by the
railroad company or by settlers.
Any u~npatented land is held under
the decisi n to be open to mineral
locations, but patented land is held
not to be open to location. The only
way, Judge Brown points out, that
a patent once issued could be an
nulled, would be for the govern
ment to bring action within six
years to set aside the patent on
the ground that it was issued
through fraud or error.
Judge Brown explained that the
railroad has land examiners, of
whom Carl Stoddard of Reno Is one
going over lands which are ready
to be patented. The land examiner
looks at the land and if his decis-
ion does not coincide with that of
the railroad examiner, another ey-
animation is made by the railroads
representative. Valuable mineral
deposits are the basis on which land
may be excluded from patent for
agricultural purposes.

SEVEN NHISKEY CASES

N. j. Holgate and George w.
O'Neill, special agents of the Indian
bureau, have been in Elko for about
two weeks investigating the sale of
Whiskey TO Indians. AS a result of
their work, George Brady, John
Lee, Lee Fou, Fred Tucker, Joe
Papuch and Perry Duvall have been
arrested on the charge of disposing
of ardent liquor to Indians.
Marshall Gray arrived from Car
son last night and this forenoon the
preliminary examinations of George
Brady, John Lee, Lee Fou and Fred
Tucker were held before Commits
sioner Rooher. All were committed
to the custody of Marshall Gray
upon failure to give the required
bond for their appearance before
the U. S. grand jury.
Joe Papuch and Perry Duvall
were arraigned and their exsmina-
lions were set for 10 o'clock Satur-
day. A warrant is out for another
resident of the town, but as he has
not been arrested his name is sup
pressed.
Commissioner Sells Of the Indian
department is determined to break
up this nefarious business and the
number Of arrests made here should
serve as a warning to those who
make a practice of giving or selling
whiskcy to Indian.

FART OF TICKET

That the socialist party intends

evident from reports given out
from Reno to the effect that the

ed to make the race with State
Senator Martin j. Seaman of Tone

w. A. Morgan Of Manhattan as
the party's choice for Governor.
Mr.. Morgan is the least known of

he finished third in the race for

THE FATE OF A COWARD

Many people have doubtless
wondered what has become OF
Bruce Ismay, the millionaire coward
of the ill-fated Titanic.
The following clipped from the
Ely Expositor tells how he spends
his miserable existence:
In a remote house at the heel OF
the e near. Costello, Galway bay
ireland, lives a a who was once
honored and respected an ornament
to polite society everywhere, 8
pnwer in maritime life, known all
over the world as the director OF
a great transatlantic steamship
company. He was Immensely
wealthy, and is still. But his house
is described as a solitary lodge ia
the heart of On Irish wilderness.
He has few visitors. He rarely
leaves his own premises. When he
does, his old friends pass him with.
out a word, without a sign OF
recognition.
This man is Bruce Ismay, the
steamship man who was arraigned
for the tragedy of the Titanic
Rumor whispered that his one-time
friends avoided him after his
C ,wardice that awful night when SO

But Bruce lsmay still lives, OF
rather hides, in the lonely spot ir
Ireand. He can still live after the
fashion of a prince in some ways,
as he has money in plenty.
The captain of the Titanic went
down with his ship. The first mate
ended his life, but Bruce Ismay
who sailed away ira boat with 6

abiding place OF Bruce Ismay. He

man with his wealth; evsn worse

a chance that the man who asks fol-
aims might under certain circum'
stances prove himself a coward.
