NEVADA EXHIBITS AT THE
PANAMA ExPOSITIONS

Saturday, April Is, has been set by
George T. Mills, commissioner for the
Panama Pacific exposition, as the date
for meeting in Reno of all counties
of the state and all commercial, indus
trial and educational and other insti-
tutions interested in the Nevada ex-
hibits at the Panama fairs.
In letter addressed to Secretary
G. T. Stevenson, of the Reno CONNER
cial club, Senator Mills declares that,
in order to give Nevada the worth of
its money, the fullest cooperation
should be had in gathering and select
ing exhibits and in support of the en-
tire plan and movement to make the
exhibits at San Francisco and San
Diego.
1t is proposed to have one or more
delegates from each county, board of
trade, commercial club, chamber of
commerce, industrial institution, edu-
cation organization and civic society
and to urge the presence of anyone
whose views and opinions may be OF
value during a full and free discussion
of the subject. The possibility OF
forming an organization which may

FINE WINDOW DISPLAY
AT "(ORNtR DRUG STORE

We note with much interest the
way some of our enterprising local
dealers are putting forth every effort
this spring to make their stores at
tractive This week Stephenson Drug
CO., Winnemucca, Nevada, whose pro
gressive policy has been strongly
shown this spring by their large, at
tractive advertisements in our col
umns, have a fine window devoted en-
tirely to house paint.
On close inspection one finds not
only the usual display of paint cans,
but long cards showing rows of
houses in new and handsome combi-
nations of colors for exterior paint
ing An attractive window border
brightens the appearance of the whole
store and draws much attention from
the passers-by. 1t attractively illus
trates how easily and well any shabby
surface in or about the house can be
fixed up.
Stephenson Drug Co. deserves much
credit for this window and We are
sure it will prove of much benefit in
reminding people of the many things
around their homes that can easily be
beautified at house-ceaning time.

European Experience With Unem-
ployed.

Germany with her well-organized
system of labor exchanges, is bringing
the manless job and the jobless man
together. Likewise England, with her
more recently established chain of la
bor exchanges, is acquiring a fairly
definite knowledge of the number of
jobs available; of their nature and
their location; of the number of men
out of work; of the kind of work that
they can perform. Not only is this
information published, but England
is advancing the transportation of the
iobless man to the manless job. Like
wise other foreign countries have pro-
vided systems of insurance against
unemployment.
Denmark has worked out very
successful system on the contributary
basis, the members of the union, the
community and the state contributing
to the fund. This plan is now beyond
the governmental stage and has been
developed according to g"
ciples. Similar progress has been
made looking toward the regulariza.
ton of employment in certain so
called seasonal industries. In Eng
land. one of the most irregular of oc-
cupations, that of the longshoreman
has been converted into a fairly regu-
lar employment. Some progress in
this direction has been made in the
United States.-From "Our Army OF
the Unemployed, by Hon. John A

GUARD BRIDGE
AGAINST ARMY

One hundred men, in command of
General Thorne, a portion of the
original Kelley army, arrived from
Sacramento yesterday afternoon, at
$50 o'clock, on Western Pacific
freight No. SO.
The local officials of the railroad
company had been notified of their
coming, and they at once sent word
to the sheriff IS Office. As a result a
guard was placed on the bridge and
the men were not allowed to come over
town. Deputy Sheriff S. NJ. Bowling
stood guard last night and was re.
lieved this morning by Constable
Moore.
Last evening the army went into
camp near the Western Pacific stock
vars, where they have since remain
ed Last evening Chairman Haviland,
of the county board sent over load
of food, calculated to be sufficient to
last the men for "a hours.
An effort will be made to get the
army off on w. p. No. 50, which IL
scheduled to leave at O'Clock this
afternoon.

WILL RECOMMEND
P. 0. SITE TODAY

J. II. Fleming, treasury site agent,
concluded his inspection of locations
for the new Federal building yester-
Gay, and left for Fallon on an early
morning train. There he will recon-
mend a site for the Federal building
to be erected in that town, and will
then go to Goldfield for like pur-
pose.
When seen at the Eldorado last ev-
ening by Silver State reporter, and
asked as to the result of his inspec-
tion, Mr.. Fleming was reticent, de-
clining to make any statement furth-
er than to say that he should send in
his recommendations today, giving
first, second, and possibly third
choices.
Mr.. Fleming said, however, that he
had under consideration two sites in
lower town and an equal number in
middle" town. From outside
sources it was learned that the lower
town sites were the f. Reinhart com
pany plot, opposite the store, on
Bridge street, now occupied as a lum-
ber yard, and the Staunton property,
at the corner of Second and Bridge
The locations further up town under
consideration are said to be the Coch-
ran property, at the corner of Fourth
and Melarkey streets, and probably
the Meth ground, at Fourth and
Bridge.
However, the entire appropriation
for the building is but 0,000, and it
is the custom to pay but ten per cent
of the appropriation for the site,
which in this case amounts to but
$4,000. In his conversation, Mr.. F1em-
ing made it plain that two factors
would be the main considerations in
making the selection-frst, to secure
a site near the center of population,
and second, to keep the cost within
ten per cent of the appropriation. He
also casually stated that the center of
population of towns the size of Win
nemueea was usually in the vicinity
of the public schools.
When asked when the site will be
selected and actual construction com
meneed on the building, Mr.. Fleming
said that he was unable to state. 81
shall make my report to the treasury
department at once he said, "but
the architects are so far behind with
their public building work that it is
hard to say when they will reach Win
nemucea -

SAVAGE AND TIGER
AT NIXON TONIGHT

Owing to the delay in the South
ern Pacific eastbound train service
yesterday, the pictures for Between
Savage and Tiger" did not arrive un-
I'll it was too late to put the show on
last night. However, as there was no
date for tonight, it will be put on at
the Nixon this evening.
Every man, woman and child with a
drop of red blood in their veins loves
a picture or story of adventure
where the hero is on the brink of
death or misfortune every minute, but
wiggles out every time by some hair
breadth escape and finally proves that
virtue triumphs over vice and all ends
happily. just such a picture is
George Kleine's latest success, the
Cines photo drama, "Between Savage
and Tiger a six part story of ad-
venture on the high seas and in the
widest jungles of India in which
tigers, elephants, antelope, water
buffalo and tribes of wild savages
play conspicuous part. 1t would
spoil everything to tell the story here
and it suffiees to say that the extrem-
est imaginations of nider Haggard
are outdone in this exciting picture
which still has all the convincing at
tributes of plausible reality. That it
could happen is proven by the camera.
That il did hapen is another question
all together. Antony Novelli, Leah
Giunchi and Lorenzo Lupi, of "Quo
Vais' and CLEOPATRA fame, play
the principal roles, supported by a
large cast of capable artists who
promise to become favorites them
selves, soon.

RARE VALENTINE
FOR LITTLE GIRL

by IL. w. DtUnlc.

where in the broad United States get

into court and the court 10000

That is what occurred in Chefoo
China, February IA, 1912, for in my
capacity as marshal of the U. s. con-
sular court, I served the said summons
on little Miss Miriam Mills-yes-
and had to swear to it, too, before the
consul ON my return to the office.

was badly needed just then because
of the wounded soldiers on both sides
of the revolution who were being
brought in from battles a few miles
away.
OF course, my call was arranged
by phone, and the doctor and his
wife knew just what I was bringing,
50 there was nothing to that except to
hand each a copy and read the sum-
mons part as rapidly as possible.
"And now, where's that baby9' I
asked, when | had done reading.
"Why, you certainly don It want to
read that to her, replied the mother
"No," I answered. "but I have to

DECLINE IN GOLD PRO-
DU(TIOh OF RAND Mines

Signs indicate that there may soon
be as much reason for government en-
couragement in tn eintensive produc-
ton of gold as some of us profess to
see for the intensive production of
radium. The greatest natural de-
positary of gold that the world has
ever known is showing evidences of
having reached its maximum response
to commercial exploitation. The
Rand mines, for the first time since
the close of the Boer war, are con-
sistently declining in their yield. 1t
is true that labor Iliculties have re-
Gently affected the industries of
South Africa, and it may be said that
the lower output of 1913 is to be as
cribed to this cause and the shortage
OF labor, but it is not possible to con-
eeal the mathematical limit of Rand
productivity under the particulars of
an industrial crisis. Rand mines will
continue for years to contribute the
largest share of the worlds new
gold, but they will hardly continue
that majestic advance which has been
the wonder and alarm of economists
during the last decade. This condition
OF decline has for several years been
the persistent recorp of the gold
mines of Australia, and the curve of
American production is now dipping
into the trough of a synelinal fold.
These three principal sources are suffi-
cient in their strength to affect the
entire showing of the world, so that,
| in 1918, the universal yield of the
yellow metal fas more than 100000
600 less than in 1912. Commerce has
become accustomed to expecting some
increase each year, in response to
what is deemed by many to be
natural demand from the slowly ex-
panding finance of the world. Any
failure of this increase, not of the
supply alone, would logically react
upon our commercial relations, if
the economic premise here indicated
be true Certainly there is little rea-
son to suppose at this time that the
annual yield of the world will reach
| SOC, 100000, notwithstanding many
alarmists have seen ut to compute a
steady piling up of the metal without
limit.-Mining Science.

latter part of the week, after which
hauling will be commenced to Win
