sorrowful when the message reach

Of the death of my aunt, Margaret

a great personal loss, for no one
that | have ever known has ever
been a greater inspiration for good
than she has been to me /; no one
has been such a comforter to me
in times of sorrow, for it is truly
those who have drunk deep OF
sorrows cup, that can comfort
others. In her life she had supped
oft with sorrow, yet hers was one
of the brightest, most cheerful
natures | have ever known; ready
to smile and play with the little
child, to be a companion and con-
fdant of the youth or maiden, to
plan pleasant surprises for all, to
be a stay and helper for the aged;
forgetting her own sorrows. for a
while, in order to make life bright
er and happier for others. Yet
those who knew her best, know
that the loss of her two children
WAS even present with her, yet
she accepted Her Masters decree
not no one even heard her ques-
ton it. Her faith was wonderful.
Never did she lose faith in God for
one moment. | had hoped to see
her again in the flesh, that | shall

how much she will have to tell me,

A LONE Term

session of court, save one perhaps
in the history of Highland, cam'
| t, o close about eleven o'clocl
Saturday night.
As all CT our county reader
known, most at iha time was taRef
IN by the trial 81 The NtCluna
Folks land case. this being the
third trial in this court. In the
first instance the jury found fol
the defendant, Judge Holt setting
aside the verdict on the grounds OF
what was purported to be new
evidence. The second trial result
ed in hung jury, and the present
one in q verdict for defendant.
The aggregate time consumed III
the three trials was twenty days,
ard the evidence in the last trial
will make from - to 1900 type
written pages. The disputed land
about 81 acres--lies in the Big
Valley, and its worth is estimated
at 81 500. Both sides were repre-
sented by able counsel, and it was
one of the mostly hotly contested
suits eyer tried in Highland court.
Grants, titles, wills, deeds, sur
vevs and every available imminent
of title, covering nearly a century
and half, were in evidence, and
while the case was tedious and full
of worry for some, it was not void
of interest, and was educating along
these lines.
The twelve men who patiently
sat through the eight days of evil
dcnce were representative citizens
and above the average intelligence.
They were S. C. Eagle, John Blagg,
Cameron Hoover, f. J. Beverage,
G. L. Siple, l. B. Simmons. Geo.
W. 'Waybright, E Winner, Walter
Newman, W. E. Arbogast, 9. 5.
Peterson, Orion Fleisher.
The evidence was concluded at
noon Saturday, and by 2::3O the
instructions were ready and the
arr ument began. H, NJ. Calhoun
opened for the plaintiff in a speech
Of one hour. S. D. Timber'ake
and Charles Curry followed, in the
order named, for the defence, Mr..
Glasgow closing for the plaintiff,
each consuming an hour, and clos
ng the argument about $50. The
Jury was allowed to get supper,
after which they retired to their
room.
The interest, which had lag
yed somewhat during the taking
Of evidence, had been resumed on
Saturday, and the courtroom was
veil filled during the time taken up
oy the argument and until the YER
lict of the jury was known. d:
At about 9 O'Clock the twelve
men came into the courtroom and
reported a disagreement, but Judge
Holt, after offering to enllghte9n-
hem on any point that he could,
Urged them to again retire and do
Ill they could, consistent with the
evidence and their honest conVjc-
ions, to settle the case. They re-
turned again at 1920, having
ound q verdict for the defendant,
IS stated in the outset.
1t has since been learned that the
ury stood, on first ballot, 10 to 2
n favor of Folks.
A motion to set aside the verdict
VAS overruled, and time given in
which an appeal may be made.
There has been no effort to con-
zeal the fact that it was the pur,
pose of the losing side to carry the
case to a higher court.

place on Saturday night August 18th.
The fighters are George Green of this

The contest is TO 90 ten rounds and
promises to be one of the best fights
yet seen here, because it is believed
that the fighters are evenly matched.
Some time ago Green was defeated by

The uniyersitw of Nevada opens
Monday, August 30 and from all re-
ports this will be the banner year in
point of attendance
The University is educating the
young men and women who will be-
come the future leaders in profess
sional, industrial and public life in
Nevada and on whom the future de-
yelopment and welfare of the state
must rest. The fact should not be
lost sight of by parents and the boys
and girls of Nevada that the Uni
versity at Reno is the one institution
in the country, which trains students
to meet the requirements of success
in Nevada and inculcates loyalty to
the states best welfare.
The fact that many California
students are being educated at the
University of Nevada is outside recog-
milton of the thoroughness of the
training we are giving. No large
University with thousands of students
can hope to give the same personal
attention to the individual student
and thus insure the thoroughness of
his or her training, as one with four
or five hundred students. strong
faculty of fifty or more professors and
instructors and an equipment for
technical and vocational instruction
such as possessed by the University
of Nevada.
We have one of the very best educa-
tional institutions in the West and il
is where the e-ls and boys of Neva-
da should go to fit themselves for
their life work. The 1915 catalogue
is now available for distribution and
all interested should write for a
