NEVADA WONDER MINING co.
PROVES ITS LOYALTY TO STATE

The action of the Wonder Mining
Company is so apportioning its pur-
chase of Liberty Bonds so that $50.
900 would be credited to the State
of Nevada and more particularly to
the county in which their properties
are situated is Thoughtful act and
one that will be appreciated to the
full. The Wonder Company is a
Philadelphia corporation, insofar, at
least its principal stockholders are
there as we'll as their main Offices.
The telegram announcing the de-
termination OF the company dated on
June 9th and signed by President C..
A. Higbee Is as follows:
Nevada Wonder Mining Company
has today subscribed for $4,000
Liberty Bonds through the Churchill
County Bank"
Nevada. although rich in both po-
tential and developed resources has
many of her larger holdings in the
hands of foreign capital and 1t is a
pleasure to note that they are res
ponding manfully to the call and will
ing to credit the loan to the State
from which they derive their divi-
dends.

You fling out Old Glory; you sing her
proud story;
Her history thrills you through.
In peace you march near her; you
bid people cheer her;
You're glad she stands guard over
you.
But, friend. in. what manner do you
+. serve the banner?
Is your part just plaudits and
brag?
Do you see but beauty where others
read duty?
How much have you put in your
flag?
'Tis not her star cluster, tbs not her
stripes luster
That gives her sublimity,
Our banner is human; strong men
and brave women
Are wrought in the flag of the
free.
'Tis the service they render that
causes her splendor-
Without them Old Glory's a rag,
She calls-foes assail her. viii you
help-or fail her?
How much will you give to your
flag Daniel M. Henderson

ing Paul CASTOR, certified public ac-
eountant who had made an exhaus-
tive examination of the books cover
ing the entire period of MeFarlin's

sented by Attorneys Frame and

general scheme.
A short Introductory address was
made by Prof. E. L. McKeown in

eighth grade examinations as we'll as
a disposition to economize in expen-
ditures in keeping with the general
sentiment.
Deputy Superintendent McCracken

EXONERATED OF CHARGE OF
ENBEzzLFMENT IN OKLAHOMA
Geo. o. Ray, Extradited a Few Days
Ago Returns to Fallon Acquitted
of Accusation

Geo. o. Ray, who was taken back
to Oklahoma a couple of weeks ago
on extradition papers charging him
with selling a newspaper plant that
did not belong to him, returned to
Fallon last Monday. having satisfac-
torily settled the matter, which, as
he stated here was due entirely to
misunderstanding in a business deal,
in which the courts were used to set
tie private disagreement. The
Daily Oklahoman publishes the fol-
lowing account of the affair which
resulted in the complete exoneration
of Ray;
Wewoka. Okla, June 7th (Spe-
cial After an investigation of
charges of embezzlement which had
been filed against Geo. o. Ray, So
cialist Attorney and editor, who was
brought back from Fallon, Nevada.
Tuesday by the Sheriff of Seminole
County, County Attorney AL G.
Nichols today dismissed the case and
gave Ray letter or complete exon
Grafton
The charge grew out of a misunder
standing over the division of pro-
ceeds from the sale of the Seminole
County Capital, which had been own
ed jointly by Ray and F. d. Prentice
of Tulsa, the county attorney found.
Ray was visiting relatives in Nevada
when arrested but had been in COM
munication with Prentice, seeking
to reach an adjustment of their
business affairs.
Ray was Socialist candidate for
county Judge of Seminole County In
1916 and in 1914 had been the So
cialist nominee for Judge of the
criminal court of appeals from the
eastern district.

AMATEUR MINSTREL SHOW
A PRONOUNCED SUCCESS
Pleasing Entertainment of Songs,
ChOruses, Jokes and Specialties
Given by Local Talent

The history of amateur theatri-
Gals in F'ailon probably never re-
corded a more successful entertain
ment than that given by the Ladies
Guild Of Trinity Church in the form
of a minstrel show at the Temple
Theatre last Monday evening.
A crowded house greeted the per-
formers and from the .ise or the
curtain to the final act there was not
Z dull moment. The opening number
vas q two-act fairy play by number
of little tots costumed in the charac-
ters of Mother Goose rhymes, and
the quantity serious manner in
which they carried out their roles
tickled the risibles of the audience
and put everyone in a humor to ap-
preciate what followed.
The minstrel proper was all and
more than the most sanguine could
have hoped, and from the first joke
passed between the time-honored
end men land girls) and the interlo-
outor the audience began to ''sit up
and take notice." with q realization
that something out of the ordinary
was being staged for their delecta-
tion. The circle was composed of
both sexes and all possessed of voices
that would hove done credit to the
professional stage. As a conse-
quence the rollicking. and snappy
songs we're rendered with a captivat-
ing swing and melody that called
forth the appreciation of the audience
in insistent encores for each number
Following the minstrel show was
an olio OF special numbers consisting
of solos, dances and monologues by
OF the caste and special
lists, which was fully up to
the standard of the best vaudeville
road shows.
The impulse to make special men
tion is almost irresistible, but since
II hOutu htI0oodi ny SAAt Va"
tire caste, is obviously impossible
within the space limits. Suffice it to
say that whenever the came people
get together for another performance
they will play to the s. z o. sign.
II would be only fair to state that
the success of the entertainment was
due in large measure to the care
full and expert drilling of Mr.. w. X.
Davis. who was the musical director
and stage manager and to Mrs. ]. II.
Post. who trained the little folks in
their dainty speciality, Mother
Goose" Perhaps Mr.. Davis and Mrs.
Post will modestly attribute 1t most
ly to the wealth of material at their
but none the less the re-
suits of their labors were everywhere
After the performance the partici
pants were the guests of the ladies
Of the Guild at a midnight luncheon
given at the home of Mrs. f. L. Bing-
ham

new MEMBERS APPOINTED
ON BOARD Of AGRICULTURE
Governor Boyle Gives Churchill
County Majority Representation
ON State Fair Board

|
Fallonites consisting og Senator w.
A. Keddie, r. l.. Douglas, Joe jar
Wis, f. J. McDermott, Reay Mackay
and e. L. Bingham met with Gov
ernor Boyle at Carson by appoint
ment to take up the matter of pro-
per conduct of the State Fair to be
held in Fallon this Fall.
Heretofore Fallon has labored un
der the disadvantage of having but
two members on the State Board of
Agriculture and as consequence
have been handicapped in their ef-
forts to carry out the objects of
the appropriation. While it is true
that an executive committee was ap-
pointed by the Board and empower
ed to conduct the Fair and given full
control of the funds, nevertheless
the whole attitude of the organiza-
tion was one of Indifference If not
actual hostility, especially from the
secretary of the Board and as a con-
sequence Fallon has felt from the
first lack of sympathy and cooper
alton which manifested itself in
many minor but none the less ag-
gravating details.
The object of the visit of the de-
legation to the Governor was to pre-
vail upon him to appoint a sufficient
number of the membership of the
Board from Fallon to insure that
working majority of the board would
be on the ground to transact bust
ness. The Governor stated that he
fully realized the situation and mas
much as the terms of a number of
the members of the old Board had
expired by limitation he would grant
the request and asked for sugges-
tions for the personnel of the new
members.
The following were appointed: l.
II. Kent, Joe Jarvis, d. e. Williams,
F. ]. McDermoot, C. w Renfro and
A Keddie and R. L. Douglas, already
members, will constitute a majority
of the Board and located in Church
i'll county. The rcmairing members
of the Board of Agriculture are: w.
field, Vice-president; f. J. Button,
Fred Dangberg, Alex Dromiac, Heine
Amigo and Geo. Govan.
The new appointees will meet and
organize some day this week. Under
the provisions of the law it will be
necessary to arrange for the expira-
tion of the terms of two of each for
the next four years. Lots will pro-
badly be drawn to determine the ex-
piration of two members this fall,
and each succeeding year until 1921.
As soon as the preliminary meet
ing for organization is held active
work for the holding of the fair will
begin. The last legislature appro-
prieted $4,000 to be expended in
the two years-$4, 900 of which is
for necessary buildings, etc. Among
the questions submitted to the Gov
ernor was that of paying the def
cheney in the premium awards at the
last Fair out of the current years
appropriation. Governor Boyle has
submitted the question of legality to
the Attorney General and in the
event of favorable decision will at
once take up the matter of paying
the premiums in full. Although the
premium list specifically reserved the
right to apportion the awards pro
rata in the event of a shortage, the
local members of the Board feel that
the honor of the State is involved
and that exhibitors should be paid
dollar for dollar II such a thing is
possible.

ate practically all OF the smaller Catho-
lie societies in the country with the
Federation, increasing the latters
membership by about 100000. The
Federation Is now composed OF 30 Of
the larger Catholic societies. Under
tho diocesan plan the Jurisdiction
would be placed by diocese, affarding
a much more compact organization,
