The lodging house building be-
longing 10 c. A. Hoover, OF Nads-
worth. situated alongside the Nevada
Dlstillers & Brewers building on
Williams avenue was practically de-
stroyed early Tuesday morning, the
fire originating from within, says the
Fallon Standard. The alarm was
turned in at about 3 o'clock, and a
general was made by local
fire fighters who did their utmost to
save the structure. The character
of the building made work almost
futile. though the efforts put forward
suficed 70 save the adjoining build
ings.
An incident occurred following
the alarm that ended in the chagrin
of a number of the local citizens who
had started from the firehouse with
one of the city's two h%osecarts. A
Swede. unable TO pronounce the
word brewery conveyed a false
notion to their minds and they later
ended up on saltwater avenue, only
to learn that they were a full half
mile away from the confiagration.
The building cost $500 when
built several years ago and was insur-
ed for $1,000.

TO IMPROVE RENO.

An important step toward the aa-
yaneement of Reno as an attractive
residential city and for the develop

resort through the development II

in the granting of a franchise % the
Steamboat Springs Mining & Devel-
opment company for laying mains
and pipes into and throughout the
city for supplying the people with
hot water for heating and bathing
purposes. The franchise runs for a
period of fifty years, at which time
the city may have the right to pur-
chase the property at a valuation

city is to receive. after the first ten
years OF the existence of the fanchise.
. per cent of the net income OF the
company. which is to begin opera
tions within one year and have the
water brought into Reno within two
years from the granting of the fran
chise.
Attorney Painter referred to the
large investment of capital that
would be necessary to carry this pro-
ject to completion, the mount OF
money that would be expended for
labor and supplies. and the ultimate
benefits which the city would derive
as a community through this enter
prise. which he claimed should make
Reno the greatest health resort in
the country.
Capital for carrying the project TO
fulhllment is said to be practically
pledged upon the basis of the fran
chise as it was adopted by the city
council.
The natural temperature of the wa
ter of these springs is 20S degrees
Fahrenheit, and it is estimated that
the water can be piped into Reno. a
distance OF nearly II miles. with a

Watch out for those who flatter you:
There's something that they want of
you.
When Peter Rabbit told Chatterer the
Red Squirrel that Buster bear would
consider it great favor If Chatterer
would run over to the Green Forest to
see him for few minutes Chatterer
tossed his head and pretended that he
wasn't at all interested in Buster Bear
IF he wants to talk with me he can
come up here to the Old Orchard" de-
clared Chatterer-
"All right" replied Peter. "I'll tell
him just what you say" and turned as
If to start straight for the Green For

Chatterer watched him sharply, and
when Peter kept right on he called
after him, What's your hurry, Peter?"
Peter stopped and looked back. II
think Buster Bear is waiting" said he,
"and l want to give him your message.
He is SO big and strong that ! want to
keep on the right side of him and have

ter started on again he called. by the
way, Peter, l find that l have an errand
over in the Green Forest, and so you
might tell Buster Bear that I'll try to
look him up IL l can spare the time"
"All right" replied Peter, and hur-
ried on. All the time he chuckled to
himself. He knew that Chatterer had
been pretending all the time; that he
