OTHER CELEBRITIES

In cleaning up tn attic of the
Golden West hotel recently, an old
/ register was found of the days when
the old hotel was called the "St.
Charles" when George Tufflay was
the proprietor and when it was one of
the very best houses of entertainment
between the Missouri river and the
Sacramento. The Golden West hotel
is in Reno.
The st. Charles was the stopping
place for not only travellers FROM he
East to California, but for the leading
men of the new state of Nevada. On
its pages appear the names of men
who at the ime and in the years fol-
lowing made the history of me Sage
brush state. Among those whose au-
tograph appear on the pages of thc old
tome are Thomas V. Julien, in later
days justice of the supreme court /;
NJ. S. Bonnifield, also a supreme
Judge; T. b. Hickey, who will be re-
membered by many of Nevada's citi-
zens; Fred Dangberg. Jonn Rosser, j.
d. Minor, Andrew Mauta, Cole c.
Atherton, A. B. Dr:ocbaugh. Toe
Rosenstock, all of Carson, and men
prominent in public affairs of the
early days from the admission OF the
state until the present time. Quite a
number of the early Humboldters also
put down their names Oh the old reg
lister. among them o. X. Sta nbley, sf-
terwards connected with the mint and
the state penitentiary; A. w. Nightin-
gall, who lived at the Warm Springs,
now the prison hot springs. ]. L. Eek
ley, one time state printer; Ed A.
Yesey, who kept the Vesey house at
Gold Hill and afterwards conducted the
Lake House at Reno, now the River
side; Jim Orndorff, prominent saloon
nan and sport of Virginia, who after
wards ran the Cafe Royai in San
francisco; Nathan w. Rolf, wno kept
1 harness and saddlery shop in
Washoe City, when that place was
thriving city of Nevada, and grand
father of Ernest Folsom of this city;
". c. Grimes of Churchill county, who
Is still in the harness as one of Fai-
Ions progressive citizens. By no
means the least important, appears
the name of c. c. Goodwin, then of
Washoe City, who died recently, at the
head of his profession of newspaper
writer -
The foregoing is merely sample of
the long list of prominent citizens of
the state which appeared in the old
and soiled volume. 1t calls to mind
the days when Carson was inhabited
by the rugged men of the undeveloped
West, when the Comstock was just be-
ginning to boom, and when mules AMI
horses were the only means of trans
porting freight and passengers, when
stage robbers and Indians had to be
provided against by those whose
busines or pleasure caused them to
travel over the mountains, when Hank
Monk was making his reputation as
reinsman and a joker, when the cap
itol grounds were unfenced. and the
Indian boys and girls played football
in the place where the state house
now stands.

Petrograd, May (via London,
1850 p. IN. 1.-The sitting of the
grand council of the workmen's and
night after the delegates had dis
cussed supplementary communica-
tion from the provisional government,
explaining the note of May l to the
allies. The council passed resolu-
tion declaring that the government
new note, which 1t will send to the al
lies, puts an end to all interpretations
of the note of May day contrary to
the interests and aims of the revolu-
tionary democracy.
Another resolution was adopted de-
claring the policy of annexation for
the first time had been made the sub
iect of international discussions and
this fact should be considered an inn
portant victory for the democracy.
The resolution concluded:
Slav Basis for Peace.
"The executive committee, while
asserting it's unalterable determina-
tion not TO make peace except on these
conditions appeals to the entire revo-
lutionary democracy of Russia to raj
ly around the council of workmen's
its firm assurance that the peoples of
all the belligerent countries will be
able to overcome the resistance of
their governments and force them to
enter upon negotiations for peace on
the basis of remuneration of all annex
ations and indemnities"
The explanation OF the note of Way
1. which the provisional government
gave to the council and which will be
forwarded to the allied governments
follows:
This note was subjected TO long
and detailed examination by the pro-
visional government and was unani-
mously approved. 1t was obvious that
this note, in speaking of a decisive vic
tory, had in view solution of the
problems which were mentioned in
the communication of April . and
which was thus specified;
No Conquest Desired.
The government deems it to be it's
right and duty to declare now that
free Russia does not aim at the domi-
nation of other nations or at depriv-
ing them of their national patrimony
or at occupying by force foreign ter
ritories, but that its object is to es-
tablish a durable peace, on the basis
of the rights of nations to decide their
own destiny. The Russian nation does
not lust for the strengthening OF it's
power abroad at the expense of other
nations: its aim Is not to subjugate or
humiliate anyone. In the name of the
higher principles of equity, the Rus
sian people have broken the chains
which fettered the Polish nation, but
1t will not suffer that its own country
shall emerge from the great struggle
humiliated or weakened in its vital
force
I'm referring to the penalties and
guarantees essential to dura-
bic peace, the provisional government
had in view the reduction of arma-

Washington, May 5,---In an appeal
TO the women of the United States"
secretary Houston declares that they
can do their bit most effectively in
the national emergency by practicing
effective thrift in their households.
The appeal was prompted by ques-
tons as to the service women can
render the nation in producing and
conserving agricultural products.
Every woman can render impor-
tant service to the nation in its pres
ent emergency" says the appeal.
She need not leave her home or
abandon her home duties to help the
armed forces. She can help to feed
and clothe our armies and help sup
ply food to those beyond the seas by
practicing effective thrift in her own
household.
Where and How to Help.
Every ounce of food the house
wife saves from being wasted in her
home-all food which she or her
children produce in the garden and
can or preserve-every garment
which care and slkillful repair make
it unnecessary to replace--all lessen
that which households draft on the
already insufficient world supplies.

Believes Way Has
Been Found to Beat
German Subma

New York, May 5.--W l.. So
ders, chairman of the naval conA
sulting board, announced here to-
day that the board had forwarded
to Washington plans for dealing
with the submarine problem
which, it was believed, had solved
the problem successfully.
1T looks as though the subma-
rine problem has been solved y
Mr.. Saunders said, mot only in
theory, but on the strength of
practical tests on the Atlantic
coast"
Mr.. Saunders was unwilling to
so into further details.
For several months about thir-
ty-five inventions Il day have
reached the board. Some We're
selected and tested.
A few survived, and these are
the ones, Mr.. saunders said, which
will be employed against the sub
marines.
Mr.. Saunders said the plan in
volved the possibility OF land OPP
erations. The scheme, he indi-
Gated, included a military offen-
sive against the Kiel canal. The
use of electricity is involved.
The naval operations would,
under the plan, be directed to-
ward bottling up the North sea as
effectively as Great Britain has
blocked the English channel.
AS the official spokesman of the
naval consulting board, Thomas
Robins gave out this statement to-
night in reference to Mr., Saunders
announcement:
III Mr.. Saunders is correctly
quoted as saying that some Ameri-
can genius has perfected an in
vention which will clear the waters
of submarines, he must have
knowledge of some invention which
Is not known to me nor to the other
members of the board. We are
still searching for exactly that
kind of invention"
In later statement Mr.. Saun-
ders reiterated the belief that the
plans formulated would prove ef-
fective in dealing with submarines
but made 1t plain that he was
merely voicing his personal opin-
ion.

VIII Prevent Disorders.
In consequence of the disorders yes

council of workmens and soldiers
delegates has decided unanimously to
forbid all public meetings and demon
strations for the next two days Any
one who incites the people to take
part in any demonstrations or fires
shot will be regarded as traitor to
the revolution. The committee will
submit to the council for investigation
the causes leading to the firing OF
shots in the streets of Potrograd yes
terday.
The executive committee has pia-
carded the streets with proclama-
ton appealing to the people to main
tain calm, order and discipline and
calling upon the soldiers not to go out
carrying arms and to obey only orders
bearing the official signature of the
executive council.
