RENO, Jan. 1S.-Last evening Sen.
ator Newlands was operated on for
appendicitis. The physicians found that
while dining with Sam Plat he had
swallowed piece of ice about the size
of pea, which had lodged in his ap-
pendix and caused no end of trouble
for over a week. After the removal of
the ice he rested easily and will be
able to sit up and read the Reno
journal in day or so.

Judge Sturdcvant has very properly
decided that the red light abatement
law could not be used to blackmail
hotels, as was first regarded to be a
part OF its mission, but was intended
to assist in the removal Of well known
places of i'll rcpute and that it must
be affirmativcly shown that the own

which it was used. Couples register

FIRST FALL STAG AT
 THE ATHLETIC CLUB
 VERY SUCCESSF LII
Guy Voyer and the Majestic Quartet Make Big Hit. Feinfeld and Gaddy
 Wrestle to Draw

Presenting interesting amusements of all varieties, the first monthly stag of the Birmingham Athletic club of the fall season proved decided success before the largest crowd that ever witnessed sim liar entertainment at the club. The stag lasted well after midnight and not one of the spectators departed before the final boxing match was completed. pr. J. E. Dedman acted as master of ceremonies.
 Probably the most interesting affairs on the entire programme was the three bat tie royals and the entertainment given by some of the Boyle- Woolfolk company from the Majestic Especially was Guy Voyer at his best. The popular comedian rendered several selections but the crowd of men couldn't get enough of his sing ing. The applause was finally ended by the appearance of the likewise famous Majestic quartet. The generous visitors seemed to understand why the specta- tors couldn't get enough and abided by the rule of the house and the music was continued until the house was finally sat isfed.
 Battling Kelley of Atlanta and John Landis, a local product fought four round draw. Both youngsters displayed remarkable talent at the boxing game and although Kelley had a little the best of the argument, Landis fought hard and gave the Atlanta pugilist several heavy jars. A draw was the popular decision.
 A two-fall wrestling match between Morris Feinfeld and Wrestling Gaddy also resulted in a draw. each man win ming a fall Although Feinfeld was out weighed about 50 pounds the match was very interesting one and made hit with the crowd.
 Besides the battle royals, in which ne- groes played a very important part, in- numerabe boxing and wrestling matches between small negro boys held the at- tention of the audience we'll for about the first hour. No knockouts resulted.
 A short basketball game between the color series of the club showed the mem- bers just what material was on hand this season for Coach Brumage to work with. Tommy McGowan and Roberts showed up exceedingly well. Several of the clubs former stars are back in uniform and will again represent the B. A. c. The cap tain of the varsity of the club has not been chosen as yet. The game last night was between the Whites and the Col ors.' The "Colors' won easily.
 It was near l o'clock when the final boxing match was completed. The crowd of about 800 filed quietly out of the gym nasiunl. It was tired but happy au- dience.
 Towards midnight refreshments were served. All the apple cider and pumpkin pic that was wanted was free and the "bunch' made record time in disposing of the eatables. After all it was a most enjoyable time. Everybody had a great time and the next stag will probably be welcomed by another packed house.

bESSEMER NEWS

Bessemer, November 4.-(Special) The local fire department received a call shortly after o'clock this morn ing from the plant of the Woodward Iron company at Woodward to come there and assist in putting out the fire which was burning the roof off the by-product plant. Chief Reeder with several of his men rushed to the scene, making the trip of five miles in 12 minutes, and had the pump working in record time. The blaze was not put out until about o'clock. It appears that the fire started from electric wires becoming ort-circuited, caus- ing the roof of the by-product plant to catch fire. The roof was made of wood covered with tar paper, which burned rapidly and proved hard to put out. The damage is estimated at about
 $500. Within a very short time the en- tire plant was running with a full
 force and the fire caused no delay.
 Shortly after 9 o'clock this morning the fire department received a call to Second avenues and Nineteenth street
 where smoke was seen issuing from the
 cornice above the tailoring establish
 ment of R. M Mingea. The call was answered but the fire department
 found that a fire had been built in a
 grate in the dental office of Dr. R. F.
 McTyiere and there was a hole in the
 back of the grate which allowed the smoke to pass into the wall. No dam age was done.
 Another coal mine will be opened by
 the Woodward Iron company in the near future for the purpose of secur-
 ing larger amount of coal for it's furnaces and coke ovens, the mines at Dolomite and Mulga not furnishing as much of the product as Is needed by the company. Engineers have decided
 that slope be opened some distance from Dolomite, but striking the same vein of coal, which will give a shorter underground haul than the company has at Dolomite. It is understood that the slope will be sunk 600 feet and will be equipped with the most mod ern machinery The work will be com
 menced at once, but 1t will be several months before it will be completed
