An English soldier covered with

Forty oranges, please, he said in
French. The old lady went to the

oranges from big pile, dropping
them into the bag which the soldier
held open.
Il just took up collection in our
trench and were are going to have an

shoulder, gave the old lady 80 cents,
and clattered out into the warm after

Found Unconscious
Near GlenbrOOk

There was considerable alarm man.
ifested in Carson this morning when
it was announced that Thomas Frad-
sham, a well-known citizen. had been
found in an unconscious and dying
condition near the cemetery at Glen
brook and later had been taken 10
the hotel at that place, but an investi-
cation proved the matter was not as
serious as first thought. DR.. Maclean,
on receiving the news, Immediately
departed for Glenbrook and on arriv-
ing there found Fradsham at the ho-
tel in dazed condition and una BILE
to explain his plight; to all appear
ances he was suffering from exhaus-
ton and from the effects OF some
drug. The doctor gave him some
remedy and when he left Gienbrook
at noon Fradsham was rapidly recov-
ering.
From what could be learned in
town Fradsham went home last night
in company with companion, H. R.
Wells, and retired at about $50 A.c-
cording to Wells he had been suffer
ing with headaches and to alleviate
the pain had been taking phenacitine.
This, together with his sufferings,
had probably produced abstraction
and while in this condition he had
evidently got up during the night and
started on a walk to Glenbrook and
arriving near the cemetery fell uncon-
scious at the point where he was sub
sequently found.

Finance Committee
Busy Tomorrow

The finance committee for the
Fourth of July was to have made us
canvas OF the town today to see how
much money can be raised for the
celebration, but Mr.. Malley, who is
chairman, had to go to Reno on state
business and the matter was post
poned to tomorrow. Without fail,
however, the committee will get
around tomorrow.
A great deal depends upon the re-
suit of this canvas of the town, for
there are many plans for tine celebra-
ton, many of which are expensive,
and Of course if there is to be
scarcity of money, there will have to
be pruning of the plans.
The executive committee is to meet
tomorrow night and all members are
expected to be present without fail
The hour set for the meeting is 7:30.

Hard Shedding
Over the Pass

A party of travellers on the way to
Montana from Southern California is
camped in the southern end of town.
They report that they had very bad
time crossing the mountains from
Slippery Ford to the top of the grade
leading into Lake valley.
The snow on the road was from
two to ten feet deep, and in order to
get their wagons over it was neces-
sary to travel back and forth over
the pass dozen times with the
horses. After while, it was possible
to get over with their teams and the
road, though very bad, is possible for
teams, though bad, very bad for autos.
