SAtEM'S PALMY DAYS.

One hundred years ago one of the
busiest seaports on the Atlantic coast
was Salem, the historic Massachu-
setts city which few weeks ago was
visited by terrific fire. During the
war of 1912 Salem was the favorite
port for American privateers. Prob
ably two-score of these predatory yes
sells hailed from Salem, and, when
the war was ended, few of the in
habltants of the little city were un-
able to tell some tale of personal adj
ventures, cruising against the enemy.
In fact, Salem had the honor of re-
ceiving the first prize captured ON the
ocean after the declaration of war.
Then the whole town turned out to
greet and cheer the captors. But.
long before the war WAS closed. the
appearance of prize in the harbor
was such a common occurrence that

on reading, especially on reading
newspapers, but that did not mean
thinking. They spent good deal of
time on business, but great deal of
business effort was comparatively
mechanical and rule of thumb.
What he meant was something Diff
ferent-that they should apply their
minds to questions which did not
concern their business, but in which,
as good citizens and intelligent hui
man beings, they ought to be occu-

There was a good deal of fiction

MAKES GOOD USE OF LAsso
Barge Captain In New York River
Keeps Rope Handy for "kids Al
ways Tumblins In"

Capt. William Brockway, in charge
Of the Mary Mccarthy, a grain
barge. lying at Si1ty4third street and
the East river, believes in being pre-
pared for all emergencies, so when
John Caciopo fell off the stringpiece
and came up gurgling and yelling
as loud as his seYen-year lungs would
let him the captain merely smiled.
Every one else ran around wildly.
"That's easy," commented the CAP
tain. He stepped to the cabin and
took from its peg one of the numer-
ons coils of rope hanging there. He
arranged it quickly but carefully,
whirled big loop around his head
a few times and then dropped a nice
round circle over the sputtering boys
head. He gave the rope a couple of
quick jerks, the moose tightened, and
In less than minute from the time
the boy had gone overheard the cap
tain was pulling him out of the
water.
Policeman Brown had summoned
Doctor Beard from Flower hospital,
butWhen the physician arrived about

capable for that duty.

Brockway, as they took the boy away.

EXPLAINED BY GREAT NAN
Bismarck Gave Lucid Explanation
Of the Diplomatic Phrase,
Entente Cordiaie.

In the newspapers of today we
very often find the words "entente
cordiale." Most readers understand
the meaning of the expression, but
it is rather difficult to make trans
lation that expresses the exact mean
ing of the original French, SAYS the
Youths Companion. Prince Bis
marck gave good explanation when
his daughter asked him what the en-
tente cordiale really was.
Well" he said, cit is not so easy
to define literally. 1t means a cor
dial understanding, but it also has a
little different significance. For ex-
ample; You were in the courtyard
this morning when came from the
garden with Nero; Diana was in the
yard, gnawing a large bone. My
Nero saw her, and ran to seize The
bone. Then there was little fight,
until | struck them few sharp
blows with my cane. After that the
bone lay in the middle of the court,
while both dogs stood off at some
distance and looked eagerly at it.
Each dog, in fact, was as anxious 70
keep the other away as he was afraid
of my cane, and, therefore, neither
ventured to seize it. You see, that
is what they call in diplomatic circles
an entente cordiale.'

TRIBUTE TO MEMORY
OF mrs. WOLVERTOk
Communicated

A large number of sympathizing
friends and neighbors gathered at
the Presbyterian church yesterday to
pay the last tribute of respect to the
memory OF Mrs. Isaac p Wolverton,
Sr, who died suddenly at her home
In Ruby Valley last Sunday morning.
The services were conducted by
Rev. George H. Greenfield, assisted
by the choir. Mr.. Greenfield paid
touching and eloquent tribute to the
deceased. He spoke of her self-sacra-
flee and devotion to her family dur
ing her life and the influence for
good she asserted upon all who came
In contact with her. The services
closed with solo by Mrs. Schuyler
man, after which the remains were
taken to the knights of Pythias GEM
, etery and laid to rest in the presence
OF large concourse of citizens from
the valleys and Elko. There may she
peacefully sleep.
Mrs. Wolverton was truly Moth
er in Israel" She raised large fam
lily of boys and girls, all of whom are
respected in the communities in which
they live. She played her part in life
well and left legacy more priceless
than gold to her children and the
community in which she lived for
over forty years. The memory of
her love and devotion should be a
beacon star to guide those who mourn
safely into the harbor of eternal life
Though hidden from mortal sight,
the memory of her good deeds and de.
votion to her family will live long in
the memories of those who came un.
der her gentle influence. May the
family circle, broken by her death,
be reunited on the other shore.

throughout the present campaign
until his knocker gets sore.
The political meeting at which
Sam outranked his fellows, like the
North, star outranks its constella-
ton, was huge success-for the
Democrats. 1t was the cleverest bit
of Democratic politics performed
here this campaign for it clinched
Democratic favor and impelled man
after man from neutral camps into
the fold of the party progress. Sam
held his hand in an elephant gun,
used by the g. o. p., but his ammuni-
ton was undersize Not only could
Sam not injure the Democratic don
key with his weapon; he couldn't
have disturbed the fur on an English
hare. Sam, while not altogether a
weakling, proved jokelet; he wasn't
even fair sized joke. His abductions
caused anything but mental dizziness.
He did not sway great and attent-
i've audience. He didn't even interest
it.-Churchill County Standard.

With well-filled house taking
every seat in the main floor and first

date for United States senator, in re-
buttal Of his attacks on Senator New

Both addresses We're enjoyed by the
audience which frequently gave ex-
preston to approval by applause.
Woodburn's address, being in the
nature of charge, horse foot and
dragons on Platt's speech here OF ten
days ago, was replete with fervid Ian
guage that aroused the enthusiasm of
the crowd. Senator Plttman's address
avoided controversy and was of diff
ferent type, regretting the character
of the campaign debate and present
Ing picture of the accomplishments
of the administration with which he
worked. Each speaker held forth
slightly over an hour.
Woodburns' telling bit of the eve
ming was his repartee when some
one interrupted him to ask why he
had not gone to the University of
Nevada as he said Samuel Platt
should have done. Woodburn re-
torted that he did not have the price

out basket ball team and commen-
'ced practice this afternoon. This is
a revival of the branch of athletics
which had almost been dropped by
the girls at the High School and it's
revival will be matter of interest to
people locally. An excellent coach is
available in the person of Miss Kne-
meyer, who has had great deal of
experience at the game and it Is free
ly predicted that the team turned out
this year will be good one under
her able tutlage. Although there are
no old players back at the school, the
material is all of the highest class
and there is nothing in the way to
keep the girl from turning out one of
the best girls teams in the state. Ar
rangement are now on foot to arrange
games with the girl teams of Reno,

thought that games will be scheduled
