HART PASSES AWAY

James Hart, one of the best known
and highly respected citizens Of. this
district passed away at the Ely hos
pital on Wednesday morning. Mr..
Hart was about 81 years OF age and
death was due to an attack Of typhoid
fever, from which he had been con
fined to the hospital for some days
past. The remains were shipped to
the former home of the deceased at
Debuque, Iowa, yesterday morning and
were accompanied on the last sad
journey by B. e. Wright, Of Ruth, an
old friends and room mate of the late
popular mechanic. About 100 friends
and associates marched behind the
casket to the train with heavy hearts
and heads bowed down.
Coming to this district about ten
years ago, Mr.. Hart made many
friends and enjoyed the distinction of
never making an enemy. He was rec
ognized as one of the best all around
emchanics in this section and was an
honored member OF the Plumbers.
Steam Filters and Helpers Union. He
was possessed of kindly disposition
and bore an enviable reputation for
honesty and integrity. During his last
illness his slegion of friends did all in
their power to comfort and assist him.
but all known to medical science
proved of no avail and after life well
spent when the grim reaper placed the
icy hand upon him he passed quietly
into the great beyond without a
struggle.
Mr.. Hart is survived by his aged
mother, as we'll as two brothers, l.. j
and Thomas F. Hart, all of whom
have the heartfelt sympathy of every
man woman and child in this district,
to whom James Hart endeared himself
by his lovable disposition and his ever
ready assistance to all with whom he
came in contact.

More than Enough Men to Fill
White Pine County's Quota
Forty EiigibLs Resulting from Last Three Hundred
Drapn Brings Total to I78 rs Against I63 Required

Tho examinations OF the last
three hundred men drawn under the
selective draft law were completed
by the examining physicians in tho
Roekhill-shallenbarger building yes
terday afternoon. From all those
that appeared forty were selected by
the physicians as physically fit and
did not claim exemption.
This makes a total Of It's eligible
men on the list from this county ae-
oording to the record at the present
date.
Under the orders issued 163 are to
be sent to the training camps, but
definite figures rs to the number Sc
leeted from this county cannot be ar
rived at for some time, due to the
fact that many have appealed to the
district board from the local board
denying claims for exemption or dis
charge.
Unless the list Is materially de-
creased by the district board allow
ing an unusually large number of ap-
reals, the present figures indicate

MISS CLARK WILL PLAY
AT ELY THEATER TONIGHT

Anyone with q slight inclination
toward preyarication; or just plain
lying for that matter. would find
food for serious reflection In Miss
George Washington, the Famous
Players Paramount picture at the
Ely Theatre in which Marguerite
Clark stars for the first time since
the renewal of her contract with the
Famous Players. In this story one
little fib. told by Miss Clark starts an
avalanche of deception in order to
enable her to conceal the first breach
of faith. To fake matters worse,
Miss Clark Is such an innocent look
ing little soul that she even receives
handsome medal from the Truth
Society for her emulation of George
Washington. Needless to say she
nearly expires with mirth during the
pesentatiop of the medal.

Ely National Bank
In New Quarters

The Ely National Bank will to-day
move into its fine new home on Ault-
man street just west Of Murry which
is in the busiest section of the rapidly
growing city. The building which the
popular banking institution will here
after occupy has ben entirely remod-
eled and is now of the substantial type
of banking building. equipped with fire
proof and .burgular proof vaults and
the like. The main floor Is extremely
well laid out for the accommodation OF
the rapidly increasing banking busi-
ness which the old quarters were not
suitable to handle
The location is one of the best In
the city and the change will not only
be of great convenience to the manage
ment of the bank but to its many pat
rons as well.

first firmly denied the charge, but
when told by DR.. Alexander that he
would be lodged in the county jail
for a few days until further ex
animation of his eyes could be made.
he weakened, and exhibited the drug
he had been using. This proved to
be atropine, which is the active prin-
ciple of belladona.
Both Ruden and the doctor from
whom he procured the drug have
opened the way for criminal prose
cution against them II the authori-
ties decide to press the matter.

FIRST SK|RM|SH IN LEGAL
FIGHT WON BY WHITLEY

In the District Court yesterday
afternoon Judge McFadden denied the
motion made by Attorney Jurieh to
quash the Indictment filed against
John Macart.
sMacart was indicted by the last
Grand Jury upon charge of having
accepted money from one OF his
countrymen upon the representation
made by the accused man that he
could influence Anthony Zurich, who
was then District Attorney, with re-
spect TO criminal prosecution against
the man from whom the money was
obtained. Attorney Zurich on behalf
of Macart filed motion to quash the
indictment upon the grounds first that
the Grand Jury was improperly drawn,
second upon the ground that Court
Reporter w. II. Sheetz was improper
ly admitted in the jury room while the
matter was being heard and third that
the indictment was not filed within
one year as required by law. AS to
the first two points raised the court
said there was no merit, and as TO the
third after mature consideration the
court determined that the point was
not well taken. The legal battle has
been a spirited one thus far and the
end is by no means in sight. District
Attorney Whiteley has vigorously op-
posed every movement on the part of
counsel for the accused and yesterday
won the first skirmish in the great
battle. The case has now been set
for trial on October Il, when a trial
jury viii be in attendance upon the
court, but there Is still a demurrer
pending and further battles along
purely legal lines are looked for.

The boxing contests In Bio hall,
while of short duration were of the
highest order while they lasted In
the opening event Kid Williams faced
Spider Baxter Williams, while a
good strong boy Is lacking In ring ex-
perience and when his seasoned op-
ponent commenced to shower blows
upon him from the sound of the gong
he evidently imagined he was looking
at n window display of Spalding's
gloves. He showed his gameness,
however, by coming to his feet after
being knocked down twice In the first
half of the first round, but on the third
down he took the count.
This bout being concluded long be-
fore scheduled time. two of the ring
side bugs were pulled thru the ropes
and dressed up with gloves. They
amused the audience during three two
minute rounds and each showed the
snap that goes to make boxer. An
nouncer Lawrence declared the bout
draw
In the main event Chaves was pick
ed by the wise ones to win over Young
Azevedo, but the talent got a shock
when the young champion of the Pa
eific coast put Chavez out In the first
ro1nd. II was evident from the mom-
ent that the men made their appear
ance that Chavez was a strong favor
| ite and attractive odds were offered
on him at the ring side. Azevedo
was by no means lacking In followers.
but Il was known by many that his
physical condition was not the best.
While he had an advantage of few
pounds In weight II was feared this
would not be sufficient to offset his
condition and for this reason his fol-
lowers were cautious about betting
their money. AS soon as the gong
was sounded, however. II was evident
that both boys were determined 10
end the battle In short order by the
knock out route. Coming together
with a bound from their corners to
the center of the ring neither as much
as spared for an opening but went
to battle like to trained wild eats.
II was shower of blows in which
Azevedo got their first and II then
became a question OF seconds. Chaxez
was game and fought like a tiger. but
the advantage of his opponent was
clear and after being sent to the ropes
with a vicious right swing to the jaw,
Azevedo followed up his lead shower
ing blows like bullets from a machine
gun until the game little Mexican
went down for the fatal count OF ten
from Refree Don Grl,ron.
While the joyous confetti battle
ragged on the streets during the even
ing the gay and festive ones danced
TO the strains of excellent music In
Biio han until the early hours bid
them depart for a few hours much
needed rest.
