Congress, at the session closed yes
terday, appropriated exactly $685.

authorizations for the future makes
the total $1,S5S,384,4S5.
These figures announced in speech
es by Representatives Fitzgerald OF
New York, Democrat, and Gillett OF
Massachusetts,, Republican, were de-
Tended by the former and attacked
by the latter as half billion dollars
greater than any session of a Repub-
lican Congress.
The usual hubbub characterized
the closing moments in the House al
ter Representative Fitzgerald. chair
man of the appropriations committee,
made his statement regarding appro-
priations. Mr.. Fitzgerald said the
world was ablaze" and "extraordi-
nary steps" had to be taken in the
way of large expenditures for de-
fense.
Representative Gillett said: "Ap-
plying the Democrats own standard
and logic, the session just closed far
surpassed in extravaganza any prede-
cessor."

CIT IN FREIGHT RATES
ON WELL-B0RING OUTFITS

Well-boring outfits moving in car
load lots in Nevada will from now on
be taken by the railroads under the
class d rate, which is so per cent
lower than the class A rate under
which outfits of this nature have been
shipped in the past, says the Gazette.
For some time the Nevada Railroad
commission has had under consider
alton rates applicable to well-boring
outfits moving in carload lots be-
tween points in Nevada The matter
was taken up informally with the
railroads operating in this state and
recommendations to substitute the
lower rate for the class A rate were
made.
A letter was received a few days
ago by the commission from the Pa
cific Freight Tariff bureau, which
represents most of the railroads in
Nevada, in which the commission was
advised that the railroads in Nevada
had acted favorably on the sugges-
ton of the commission and from now
on commodity rates based on class d
will be given whenever requested for
specific movements.
This new rate" says. a statement
from the commission, will aid farm
ers in the state in developing their
lands as it will cut down the cost of
shipping well-boring outfits. The
commission therefore advises all par
ties who contemplate shipping we'll
boring outfits in carload lots. to make
request of the railroad company over
whose line they desire to make the
shipment for the publication of a
commodity rate not exceeding the
class d rate, naming the points be-
tween which the shipment is to move.

his BROTHERS WIFE"
MONDAY NIGHTS FEATURE

The next World Film feature to be
shown at the Nixon opera house will
be His Brothers Wife" on next Mon
day night, which is the attraction
booked for with Carlyle Blackwell
and Ethel Clayton in the star roles.
The story is about two brothers
Richard, who is a successful manu-
facturer in New York City, and How
ard, who has gone to Astralia to seek
his fortune.
Richard is married to a fascinating
and accomplished wife, Stella, and
both are very much attached to their
little daughter, Mary. Richards fac
tories are set on fire, and it being
very evident that the fire was of an
incendiary origin the fire insurance
adjusters refuse to pay the insurance,
and they are compelled to live very
economically, finally being driven to
poverty Richard is taken III with tu-
berculosis, and Stella has to pawn
many of her yaluables.
One day she goes to the pawn bro
ker to obtain money from her pawn
tickets, but he refuses to give her the
amount she wishes. One of the GUS
toners in the shop is Howard Bar
ton, who has now struck it rich in
Australia and returns to America to
find his brother. but has been unable
to do so on account of his business
being ruined and address lost.
He overhears Stella's appeal for
money and is attracted by her beauty
Of face and figure. He listens atten-
lively, and when she is refused he
tells her that if she will let him en-
tertain her for one evening he will
gladly give her more money than she
seeks, and she can also keep her
pawn tickets. She shrinks from him
in shame, but on her return home,
finding her husband peevish and re-
proachful, decides to sacrifice her.
self for his sake.
A few weeks later, with the money
Stella has received, they prepare TO
90 to the mountains, where TIC .resh
air of the open country VIII nelp
Richard. In thus preparing, . letter
sent to Richard, but LETT unopened
under the belief that it was nothing
but old advertising matter, is found,
in which is the announcement that
his brother. Howard, is in New York
City seeking him. lie is sent for, and
entering the house Stella comes face
to face with the stranger she had met,
who turns ont to be her husbands
brother.
They both go through the ordeal
without Richard learning of their
former acquaintanceship. However.
he later learns of it and is bitter
against his wife. but she resolves to
make good on her own account, OBJ
tanning an engagement with a theat-
rical company. Later Richard repents
his action, when he learns from How
ard the truth of how she Inundated
herself. not for pleasure but painful
duty of obtaining money to assist
him in his sickness. He forgives, and
with little Mary taken from an or
phanage, the three have loving re-
union, after which Howard leaves to
return to Australia and forget, if pos
sible, the blot he made on a lily-pure
soul.
