CANNOT Be CURED

by local application, as they can
not reach the diseased portion of
the ear. There is only one way to
cure deafness and that is by con-
stitutional remedies. Deafness is
caused from the in6amed condition
of the mucous lining Of the Eus-
tachian Tube. When this tube is
indamed you have a rumbling
sound or imperfect hearing, and
when it is entirely closed, Deafness
is the result, and unless infiamma-
tion can be taken out and this tube
restored to its normal condition,
hearing will be destroyed forever;
nine cases out Of ten are caused by
Catarrh, which is nothing bat an
inflamed condition of the c
surfaces.

MCGINTY 8 SON WIN

The Industrial School commission
did not finish its work last evening
and met again this forenoon to
thresh out a few tangled points.
Wien these e disposed Of, the
contract was awarded to w. G. Nc
Ginty & Son Tor $26,4e3. This is
an increase of $1484 over the bid
submitted yesterday. This is due
to the commission accepting several
of the alternate propositions upon
which bids we're requested.
Following are the bids as they
appeared after the alternate pro
positions were accepted: w. G..
McGinty & Son, . $26,4s3; Ward
Brothers, $25,498; Rockwell &
Sutton, $27, SIS; j. F. & H. E.
Schraven, $26,624.
The heating and plumbing bids
after changes were made were:
W. +. Smith Co., $6,S84; Savage
Heating & Plumbing Co.. $7,426.
The contract was awarded to the
w. T. Smith Co.
Two important questions con-
fronted the board in awarding the
contract, viz: Cost and time of
completion. Ward Bros were the
lowest bidders, but their time of
completion, 200 days, was the long
est of any Of the bidders. After
several ballots the contract was
finally awarded to w. &. McGinty
& Son as being the most s~atisfac-
tory to the board, cost and time
being considered.
While we had no favorites in the
bidding we r pleased that the
contract was awarded to an Elko
man. 1t means a good deal to our
little city.

UNIVERSITY GIFTS

At the commencement exercises
of the state university, DR.. Reid,
chairman Of the board regents, an
nounced several gifts to the univef-
sity. These include a set of chimes
worth $4,000 by George Wlng6eld,
and a campanile, or bell tower, to
cost $4,000. The donors name is
withheld for the present. In adolf
ton DR.. Reid stated that he felt
certain of being able to secure a
gift Of a pipe orfan whenever an
assembly hall is provided for it.
Besides these gifts it was an
nounced that through local channels
not made public the university has
succeeded ip financing the purchase
of a 200-eere farm for the college
of agriculture. 1t is located near
Reno and the purchase is to be
consummated within q few days.
Through the same source the uni
versity has arranged to purchase a
ninesacre tract lying just east of
the dairy building, buying it from
the Evans estate. This will be used
for agricultural college demonstra-
tion work.
The chimes will be placed on the
campus AID they will run automati-
cally and will be so built as to
tease operation from c O'Clock Sat-
utday evening until 6 o'clock Mon
day morning. They will mark the
quarter, half and three-qusrters
and hour and in addition will ring
a gong 10 minutes before the hour.
They will be arranged for playing
special airs, such as a college song
or anthem and it is believed that
on clear days they may be heard
as far distant as Sparks. Three
factories viii join IN making them.
The campanile will probably be
about 100 feet high and will be
situated in front of Stewart Hall
where the asg pole now s'ards.

of doing Mr.. Brown any injustice.
Miss Markeson. an organizer

organization to oppose the woman
suffrage amendment to our state
constitution and is now on the way

The lowest bid for the construc-
tion Of tie Nevada building at San
Francisco was that of VIM. G. Nc
Ginty & Son of Reno. Since the
bids were opened objections have
been made TO their receiving the

are not a Nevada firm and bids
we're asked only from Nevada con-
tractors. The same objections have
been raised to their bid fer the Ne
vada Industrial school. So far as
the objection to A. l.. McGinty is
concerned there lis no foundation
for it as he has been a resident of
Elko for six or eight years. He
informed US this morning that he
was associated with his father in
