NEWS OF INTEREST FRO ALL PARTS OF THE ST47E]

reading a list of questions designed
to ascertain just what the intentions
Of the regents are with reference to-
the department of education. After
reading the interrogations Judge
Brown asked that they be answered
categorieally in writing
Charles b. Henderson. chairman of
the board of regents, said that he
had been connected with the univer-
sity for eight years and this was the
first occasion that the people of Reno
and Sparks had shown their interest
in the university.
He called upon President A. W.
Hendrick to address the delegation,
and Professor Hendrick answered
some of the questions at once. In
The first place, he said. there was no
intention to abolish the normal
school. but he could not give the
names OF the instructors in that de-
partment for they had not yet been
employed. He stated that changes
had been necessary because harmony
had not existed in the educational de-
partment for some time, and assert
ed that results cannot be obtained
unless there is the utmost coopera-
ton. Professor Hendrick said that
the relation of the normal school to
the university would be as close as Is
the department of education at pres
ent and the faculty would be regu-
arly recognized members of the uni
%versity. There would be no disturb
anee whatever as to certificates.
The regents instructed the presi-
dent to make a formal announcement
at the commencement exercises, in
order that there might be no doubts
in the minds of either parents or
teachers as to the program to be fol-
lowed next year.
President Henderiek will go east
next month for the purpose of engag-
in instructors for the department.

RENO RACE MEET WILL
LAST FOR THIRTY DAYS,

Reno will have the first meet un-
der the new law commencing July
18th and continuing for thirty days
with four hundred thoroughbreds
under colors.
The fact that four hundred horses
have been guaranteed to participate
in the meet means that the racing
power of the country intend that the
Reno meeting will be II of the best
ever held. The track horses and
Jockeys that have been on eastern
circuits will be brought here and the
Pacific coast will see a revival OF the
racing games, but with the gambling
feature largely eliminated. Under
the law the %pari-mutuel system is
permissible. but the old bookmakine
scheme is debarred.
Within the next few days the Ne
yada Racing commission will be ask
ed to fix the dates outlined in Sehas'
telegram. c. +. Boots, chairman OF
the commission will probably call q
special meeting for the next week
and Lou Henderson and Dave Staun-
ton, also commissioners, will join in
completing the arrangements so fan
as official sanction is necessary.
As soon as the commission takes
action the track will be put in first
class condition to make 1t one of the
fastest in the country. Extra stalls
will probably have TO be provided
for there are not now aeeommoda
tions for four hundred horses.
Manager Finn spoken of in Schas
telegram is an owner of a string o.
horses and has a good reputation al
a racing man. Chairman Boots o.
the commission for many years main
tanned a string of thoroughbreds anc
as the other commissioners and indi
yiduals interested are horsemen il
the strictest sense a high class care
may be expected for very day of the
meet.

NEVADA FURS LOST
ON BOARD LTSITANIA.

The loss of a large consignment of
valuable furs that were being sent to
London on the Inflated Lusitania,
has caused the price of furs to adj
vance % per cent. according to Ju-
Illus Schwartzchild, the local manager
for Bissenger and company. The
furs were being sent to London for
the June trade, and as the gathering
season is over, their loss Is keenly
felt, and has caused an unprecedent-
ed demand for furs. Coyote pelts
from Nevada and other western
states, formed a part of the ship
ment, and the demand for coyote
skins is exceptionally strong.

GODM0THERS OF FRANCE
ARE LOVED BY SOLDIERS

Paris. (by maiD.-The godmothers'
certificate Certificate de marraine) is
h latest distinction originating in the
great war. 1t was invented by the
spasmodic publication entitled THE
Echo Of the Huts," a journal of the
trenches and organ Of the 31st terri
torials. 1t reads as follows:
II, the undersigned. certify that
Madame Cor Mademoiselle) ..........
has been my godmother during the war
since. .........191..
SlSneO . . . . . F. .
The go1mother may be a !. woman or
n girl of any age; h has in some in
stances turned out to be a man. Her
mission is to convey good cheer to
some soldier at the front who has no
family at home to look after him Or
who, through the vicissitudes of war,
has been cut off from all communica-
ton with his relations. She writes to
him and sends him such comforts as
are practicable. and many that are
not. She is generally French, Of
course, but many English women and
100 V%irginian girls are said to have
their godsons in the French army and
are sending them enough letters to
keep all the interpreters busy.
What the "poilu" thinks of his god
mother may be learned from the Echo
of the Huts." 1t says: Their at
tentions are constant and full Of
d%elicacy. They provide their godsons
with a little well being. with a few
luXuries that. are not superfluous, and
with some enchanting dreams that are
not entirely useless either. AS the sol
diers of old combatted for their ladies',
so the 'poilu' of today fights for his
godmother. The ~godmother must be
satisfied with her godson; in order
that she be proud of him, that he be
worthy of her, h 'poilu' performs
heroic exploits.
1T cannot finish otherwise than in
a contract in due and proper form.
Therefore, to immortalize these patri-
otto unions, we have decided to create
the 'godmother's certificate
Later on it will not, perhaps, be the
least moving Of the souvenirs of this
war"
