floor where Morrish and Kinsler had
their furniture stored prior to NOV

Getting Ready to
Burn Up the Roads

That the roads in the vicinity of
Carson will be burned up by speed
lovers this summer is evident from
the influx of new autos that has ar
rived in this city during the past week
and been delivered to their owners
Judge Sweeney, Justice McCarran and
two other prominent citizens have ac-
eepted delivery of REQ touring cars.
Treasurer Ed Malley will soon re-
ceive 1915 Overland car that is said
TO be beauty, and several Maxwell
roadsters have been contracted for
by local enthusiasts and are now en-
route to this city.
Manager Sullivan of the Capitol

Of FIVE that he has sold in Carson dur

Plan Improvements
for Capitol Park

]. B. Lynch, landscape expert for
the State university, was an arrival
il Carson this morning for the pur-
pose OF making a preliminary survey
OF the Capitol grounds preparatory
to making out the plans for the i'm
provements that are contemplated.
Mr. Lynch's idea at present is to
remove every other tree now orna-
the grounds and bStween
those that remain new lawns and
plots for the cultivation of floral beds
will be laid out. Through the whole
gi ounds a new system OF sprinlling
pipes will be installed which will per-
nit watering with fifty foot lengths
OF hose Just inside the iron fence
the four sides Of the grounds
new hedges will be started and culti-
vated in up-to-date manner and the
new existing lawns will be plowed up
and raised to a uniform grade.
The Capitol commissioners are pre-
pairing to do some wholesome work
on the grounds this summer and when
the Capitol park will rank
with the best on the Pacific Coast.

Nevada Exhibit
Takes the Lead

Charley Epstine, enroute to his
home in Tonopah, was an arrival on
the morning train and spent few
hours in this city on a brief visit 10
relatives.
Mr.. Epstine has been on visit to
the big exposition at San Francisco
and says it far exceeded his expecta-
tions. He paid particular attention
to the Nevada exhibit while in the
city and says that the agricultural
display this state makes is far better
than that OF any other state in the
west, and when the big crowds Of
agriculturists arrive on their visit
this summer they cannot but become
impressed with the showing Nevada
makes. The mining display, Mr.. Eo-
stine states, has not been fully laid
out, but what is on exhibition COM
pares favorably with thar of other
mining states. The absence of Ne
vada literature is one thing that is
noted at the fair and there is a con-
siderable demand for it.

Clark County Sheriff
Placed Under Arrest

Sheriff Sam Gay was arrested this
morning on bench warrant issued
by the District court. Information
was filed by District Attorney Hen
derson alleging that Sheriff Gay, by
reason OF intoxication, has been un-
able to properly perform the official
duties of his office.
Under-Sheriff Lockett and Depu-
ties Harpending and Lighht Wheat
ley placed the sheriff under arrest
and he was afterwards released upon
bond to the amount of $1,000 fixed
by the court, H. NJ Lillis and Al.
James appearing as bondsman.
The action of the district attorney
IS said to be based upon a number of
very fragrant cases of official neglect
and improper actions upon the part
of the sheriff. The penalty upon
proof of the charges made, may be
fixed by the court as fine, imprison-
ment, removal from office or all If
these. Under-Sheriff Lockett was ap-
pointed acting sheriff by the court.
tuesday morning at 10 o'clock is the
time fixed for defendant TO plead
Las Vegas Age.
