Beautiful weather waited on the g. A. r.
men from the surrounding towns who
gathered at Hardison's Point to-day.
Twenty-seven veterans sat down when

The largest single delegation came from
Ellsworth, headed by Dorepheus Fields,
who, as adjutant, took the place Of Com
mander Small, who was obliged to give up
the trip on account OF the funeral Of q
brother veteran.
After dinner there was parade Of vet
Grams, soma Of veterans, school children
and citizens to the number Of about $50,
headed by the drum and fife corps.
After prayer by Rev. MIR. Lowell, there
were patriotic addresses by citizens and
"America" was sung, led by Charles Clark
Of the Delphian quartette, Bangor.
One OF the touching incidents of the day
was q visit OF the veterans to Comrade
Eben Smith, who is confined to his home
from o recent severe accident.

DOING GREAT GOOD
At THIS SEASON

A superlative blood-purifying
medicine like Hoods Sarsaparilla,
combined with . superlative iron
tonic like Peptiron Pills, makes the
ideal all-round treatment. No other
medicines possess such curative prop
critics a. these two working together.
Two dollars invested in these two
medicines will bring better results
than four dollars spent in any other
course Of treatment or attendance.
It will be wise to get them today.

BALMY CLIMATE OF
NEVADA is SHOWN

An analysis of the monthly meteo-
rological summary compiled by Ray L.
Fisher, local observer for the Weather
Bureau, is not only interesting, but
gratifying to Nevadans. For instance
during the month of October at Win
nemucca there was a total of 1929
hours of sunshine. Try that on your
little old piano, you of the effete East,
or you of budding California. The
weather report says: Number of days
clear, rs; partly cloudy, 6; cloudy. q.
twenty-five days of the so-called
melancholy" month were 100 per
cent sunshine! Only four days were
less than 90 per cent, and the "cloudi-
est" day was rs per cent sunshine!
In this connection there is also data
to the effect that there were no au-
roras; no halos. solar or lunar; no
hail, no sleet, no fog. Think of that.
you in Washington and Oregon. On
only one day, the 1st, was any pre-
cipitation noted, and the amount of
that is indicated by a capital T (trace).
Thes highest temperature occurred
on the 9th being Sc degrees; the low
est was Is degrees, on the 29th: the
greatest daily rise and fall of the ther-
mometer was SO degrees, on the 10th;
the least daily range was 26 degrees,
on the 28th. The mean average tenn
perature for the month was So de-
grees; the normal, according to 80
years of observation. is 48.6 degrees.
The highest October temperature re-
corded since the observation station
was established here thirty-nine years
ago is 81 degrees; the lowest in the
same number of years.10 degrees.
In only nine years of the thirty-nine
has the October rainfall in Nevada
exceeded one inch; the normal for
the month is 52-hundredths of an inch
The greatest velocity of wind occurred
on the 9th, when il registered (for
five minutes) 10 miles per hour, from
the west The mean monthly humid
ity was 81 degrees, 'he maximum of 81
degrees being registered at o'clock
in the morning. and the minimum OF
20 degrees at o'clock in the after
noon.
Although it is not mentioned in the
observers report. it may not be un-
timely to state that the appearance Of
coal in the town during the month
may also be indicated by capital T;

to normal Nevada would be a pretty

OLD-TIME RESIDENT
PASSES AWAY AT HOSPITAL

Agustin Davila passed away at the
county hospital about IL o'clock Sat
urday night of paralysis. He was a
native of California and about 65 years
of age. Deceased was an old-time res
ident of this community. Some years
ago he was stricken with paralysis
and since that time has been an inva-
lid. A few days ago he suffered an
other stroke and it was this illness
that ended his life. The funeral was
held this afternoon from the Ayers
undertaking parlors.

OH, BOY, WHERE DO
WE GO FROM HERE?

Men travelling to Camp Lewis IN
become members of the new national
army all sing one song. The burden
OF their lay is Where Do We Go From
Here?' 1t is tuneful, swingful ditty
much affected by the Sammies across
the seas, according to reports; and
the full chorus, as caroled by the care
free travellers, is as follows:
Where do we go from here, boys?
Where do we go from here?
Anywhere from Harlem to a Jersev
City Pier.
When Pat would spy pretty girl he'd
whisper in ner ear
Oh, joy-oh, boy
Where do we go from here?
How the newly drafted men on every
troop train learn the lifting lay SO
soon, and why they sing it to the
exclusion of all else, is a mystery to
the inhabitants of hamlets, towns and
cities through which the trains pass.
Suffice it to say, however, that the
northbound troops from California
and Nevada learn the lines long be-
fore they reach the Oregon border,
and they sing it from car windows at
every stop.
Besides the song they have a slo-
gan. 1t finds expression in a score OF
different ways and in as many varied
forms, being printed in chalk upon
the sides of Pullmans and shouted
from the cars and promised to pretty
girls on station platforms. 1t is even
variously worded. but the sentiment
always is the same, to wit
We'll bring back the Kaiser"

THRILLING CAREER
OF TEXAS OUTLAW

Buck Duane became an outlaw
through force of heredity and circum-
stances. His family was held in high
respect; in young Duane himself there
was not a single bad or lawless in
stinct, except the instinct to fight.
Buck inherited this temperament, this
almost uncontrollably violent and
swift reaction under insult or threat.
As was inevitable, he was bullied by
a vicious ruffian, met his man, killed
him. and fed to the wild country bor-
dering the Rio Grande, an outlaw.
With his courage, his clearness of
mind his clear-eut decisiveness and
efficiency, the character of Buck
Duane captivates your imagination;
and. although no glamour is thrown
over homicide. IL is remarkable how
persistently Dne's sympathy follows
him through all his adventures, in
which there is not one really unjusti-
fable killing. With possibly a single
exception, Duane is the quickest man
ION the draw" who ever lived in the
West.
