STEALS THE COMMUNION
SERVICE FROM CHURCHES

The young man who stole the com
munion service out of the Episcopal
church the first of the week appeared
in District Court Thursday evening
of last week and entered a plea OF
guilty 20 an information charging him
with burglary in the second degree.
He was given a sentence of one to
five years Friday morning. He con-
fessed to the sheriff that about a
week or ten days ago he entered the
Catholic church at Winnemucca and
stole the communion service, which
was made of gold, and that he sold it
in Elko. But a search by the officers
failed to reveal it and the only part
of the service was obtained in Carlin
by Constable Berning on the infor-
nation of the prisoner, Frank Ternes,
that he had given away part of the
set to a man at Carlin. The young
man is not more than twenty-three
years of age and says that he has
just recently been discharged from
the navy.-[Elko Free Press.

HENDRICK CASE
AGAIN GOES OVER

The University investigating COM
mittee took an adjournment Saturday
afternoon until next Friday, after ex-
aiming a large number of witnesses
at the afternoon session.
Charles b. Henderson read more
letters from prominent educators and
business men in the Northwest who
spoke very highly of the business and
educational qualifications of Presi-
dent Henderson. He also gave TO
Charles German a clean bill of health
saying that he had the utmost conf
dence in him as an accountant and
never had any trouble in getting
statements from him on University
affairs, with one or two minor excep-
tions.
Some of the letters read by Hen
derson mentioned E. l.. Brown of
Reno, who spent some time in the
Northwest investigating President
Hendricks record there. One of the
letters said Brown represented him
self as the personal envoy of the
board of regents who was looking
for impartial information"
Henderson said the regents never
had any business dealings with Brown
so far as he knew.
The famous and much -talked-about
gold service donated by Clarence IL.
Mackay also figured in Saturdays
hearing Mrs. John Edwards Bray,
John Edwards Bray and B. B. Bleas-
dale were present when the president
is alleged to have made derogatory
remarks about the family of the late
j. L. Stubs and to have remarked
that Mrs. Stubbs took from the Uni
versity gold tea set donated to the
University. Each said that President
Hendrick did not pretend to speak
from his own knowledge, but from
information he had received.
Dean ]. G. Scrugham of the college
of engineering said he believed Presi-
dent Hendrick was a strong, consci-
entious educator, who had the welfare
of the institution at heart
Charles A. Norcross and Frank H.
Norcross, former chief justice of the
State Supreme Court, also spoke very
highly of President Hendrick as an
educator.
At the close of the session Attorney
Miller read into the record affidavits
of Grace A. Day relative to the con-
versation about the gold tea set.

"THELOYE GIRL AT
AMERICAN TONIGHT

The arrival of "The Love Girl" at
the American theatre tonight will
bring one of the brightest stars of
Bluebird Photoplays to interpret the
leading role. Ella Hall shared hon
ore with Robert Leonard in an earlier
Bluebird, The Crippled Hand" but in
The Love Girls she will negotiate
the stellar honors to the delight of
thousands who have admired her
work in previous service to the
screen.
Master Harry Depp is likewise sure
to win admiration for his work, in
association with Miss Hall, in the
several interesting and exciting
scenes in which they jointly partici-
pate. These two skillful young play
ers are seen together in a majority
of the episodes in the photoplay, and
ii devolves upon them to turn the
entire plot from beginning of prom
ised distressful sequence to the hap
piest of outcomes.
There is a novel subject for photo
playing introduced during the prog
ress of "The Love Girl" when Hindu
mystics serve to well-nigh upset the
calculations of everybody concerned.
Just how the Buddhist faith is mis-
applied and made the subject of viii
lainy comprises an element that lifts
this Bluebird feature out of the ordi-
nary and makes it match the other
features in the successful series as
a play of unusual merit.
Sensationalism abounds for those
who enjoy excitement, but these fea-
lures by no means predominant. The
most vital interest in the feature is
likely to accrue from the perfectly
human, natural and appealing work
of Miss Hall and Master Depp in pre-
aenting the roles of two splendidly
equipped children - healthful, clean
minded, playful, and yet just little
bit mischievous kiddies, who 10
things for the love of doing them, and
finally surpass their elders in doing
the right thing at the right time.

Ask for Change of Venue

This morning Brown & Young,
Loyelock attorneys, asked for a
change of venue in the case of James
L. Shute VS.. Big Meadow Investment
Company Affidavits were submitted
to the effect that one of the officers
of the defendant company is a noto-
rious character in the community and
for that reason will be unable to Sc
cure a fair trial in this county. Judge
Ducker intimated that the facts stated
in the affidavits would hardly seem
to warrant a change of venue. but
that the court would take the matter
under advisement until the affidavit
can be more carefully considered.

ins stated that he was probably on
his way to Winnemucca. When called
upon they all waived objections to the
grand jury as body and to the in
dividual members thereof. AS is
usual in jail cases, counsel was ap-
pointed for all the prisoners. each one,
in turn, stating that he was without
funds to employ lawyer.

the Assembly was noted and corrected
and the bill, which has passed the
Assembly, will be sent back to that
house for concurrence in the correc-
ton.
In making the amendment elimi-
mating telephone and telegraph OPP
orators from the provisions of the
bill a mistake in the wording which
would have made it impossible to en-
force the ruling requiring telephone
and telegraph companies to furnish
seats for their employees, was noted
and corrected.
A stack of petitions from all parts
of the State indorsing the bill were
received by the Senate.
