pointment and in the Mobilization Regu-
lations. Impress upon him the fact
that he and his party are subject to
military law and that the men in his
party must obey his commands or sui
fer the consequence when the camp is
reached ;also impress upon him the
face that he alone is responsible for
the conduct, comfort and safety OF the
men under his charge.
In the event that there are any con-
siderable number of Colored men in
any Of the parties, it is suggested that
colored man be named as one of the
assistants to have charge of the col
ored members, but it must be thorough
" understood that he, himself, is sub
ject to the command of the leader othis
party and that he has supervision only
over the men of his own race.
It is particularly requested that you
impress upon the men the fact that
should they misbehave In any way, in
addition to being subject to discipline,
they will also reflect great dtscredtt
upon their state and upon their home
town. They should conduct themselves
at ali time as men and soldiers, and
not as chool boys, off for lark.

1t is also suggested that you re.
quest each man to carry with him a

sired that each man carry his own

there may be some delay, and an ex.

In conclusion, you cannot impress
too strongly upon the men whom you
select % leaders of the various par.
ties, and upon their assistants, the i'm.
portancs of the positions in which they
have been placed. and the fact that the
showing which West Virginia will

upon the manner In which these men

Death Of Sol Hilp

Sol Hip, a pioneer merchant and
mining man of Nevada, for many
years a prominent resident of White
Pine County, died Saturday at his
home in Reno after a lingering illness.
Mr.. Hip had been in bad health for
a number of years and for the past
two years had been almost helpless.
During the mining excitements of
Ward. Ely and Taylor. in White Pine
County, Mr.. Hip was prominently
identified with their activities and
saw the rise and decline of many of
the famous old camps that made his
tory In Central and Eastern Nevada.
He had large mercantile interests in
that section of the State and also
was heavily interested in mining
properties. He was 62 years of age
and a native of Cincinnati.

INTERNAL TROUBLES OF
GERMANY GROWING

Despite the strict censorship that
is kept over German happenings in
the empire, more and more frequent
ly and persistently reports are COM
ing through to the effect that the
internal and domestic troubles with
in the empire are on the increase and
getting more serious.
The recent meeting of the Reich
stag has been one of the most stormy
within recent years, indicating that
all the people are not of one mind
regarding the conducting of affairs.
Besides the indications of detection
shown in the lawmaking body, re-
cent press dispatches give an account
of serious mutining among the naval
forces which would lead one to be-
lieve that the rank and file of the
people are beginning to question the
motif of the war and the reasons for
its continuation.

STUDY COURSES ARE REVISED

Revised courses of study for high
schools and for elementary. city and
town schools have recently been IS
sued by the State Board of Educa-
ton and distributed to the various
schools of the State.
Since 1910 there has been no gen.
eral revision of the High School
courses of study until the present
year. though in that time there have
been large developments and advanc-
es in ~high-school work and standards
in our State. The 1910 courses were
amended in 1913 so far as mathe-
matics and commercial subjects
we're concerned. The need for new
courses covering all high school sub
jects has been especially felt during
the past two years-which two years
have seen remarkable advances made
in the high schools in the State.
The latest revision of the course of
study for elementary schools was IS
sued in 1912. This covered the work
in all schools, rural, town and city.
Amendments to this course were
adopted by the State Board of Edu-
cation in 1914 and 1915.
In 1916 a course of study for rural
elementary schools was issued. as it
was felt that the work of the rural
schools should be more definitely set
forth than was done in the general
elementary course of study. Using
the Rural Elementary School Course
as a basis. the State Board has issued
a new ourse for the town and city
schools Of the State, and this has just
recently come from the press and
been distributed to the schools. The
scope of the work to be covered in
the schools has been enlarged, with
the object to make the schools serve
their communities in as large a de-
gree as possible.
Physical education is required to be
taught in all four-year high schools
in the State. Many of the leading
States Of the Union now require this,
which is a recognition on the part of
the educational authorities that the
body as well as the mental side OF
( education should be looked after.

GIANTS AND WHITE SOx
NOW TWO AND TWO

Neck and neck is the race for the
worlds baseball championship as
shown by the results of the first four
games. The first two games went
to the Sox by such easy scores that it
might lead one to believe that the
Giants were not even going to be in
the running, and that it was all owe
but the shouting and dividing the
gate receipts. But the ways of base
ball players r not always true to
form, nor are the results of the
games always to be foretold without
putting some of the prophets In the
Annanias Club. There's many a slip
between the winner of the first .-ame
of the series and the owner of the
p~ennant. because the other team has
always got to be reckoned with; as
witness, take the way the Giants
came to In the Sd and 4th games and
knocked the sox out of White Sox.
The score nov stands two won and
two lost by each team. and this race
may be one of the closest and most
evenly matched there has been in re-
cent years.

HIGH SCHOOL NOTES

Work has been commenced on the
High School paper called "The
Booster" which is to be published
four times this year. The different
officers have been selected and by
the enthusiasm shown something un-
common is sure to appear. The josh
box, in which the jokes for the paper
are to be dropped, has been put up
and humor seems to be everywhere.
The athletic costumes have been
received and with the improvement
in this line all agree that the physical
as well as the mental side of the stu
dents will be bettered.
Robert Lucey has not been able to
attend school the last few days on
account of sickness.
Friday was Columbus Day. the an
niversary of the discovery of Ameri-
ca. The period for general exercises
was taken up with an informal pro-
gramme in commemoration of this
day, consisting of patriotic songs. a
discussion of patriotism, and the life
and character of Columbus.

Ely Record: A large number of
Indians from Nye. Elko, Eureka and
White Pine Counties gathered at
Duckwater last week where for sew
eral days they enjoyed a regular old
time fandango. The affair was got
ten up by Captain Black-Eye, chief
of the Shoshones at Duckwater.
During the day there was riding con-
tests, bucking contests and various
kinds of races, and a fandango. or
dance every night. All of the Indians
had plenty of money, and they spent
it freely. Mrs, Birch, who keeps a
store at Duckwater, sold them three
beeves, ATS pies and 400 loaves of
bread, besides other edibles in
abundance. They all had a good
time and promised to meet again at
Duckwater next year.

appeared accompanied by several
companions. Laying a gun down on
the desk in front of the court. he
drew his gun and commanded the

ed to interfere the officer turned his
