MAN IS INJURED
IN 20-FT. FALL
COLLAR BONE AND RIB ARE
BROKEN WHEN ROPE
BREAKS

Henry Fran had his collar bone
and one rib broken this morning in
a 2O-foot fall from a small scaffold
which he was using to erect a new
smoke stack on the Elks' building.
DR.. Liggett, who attended him, stat
ed it was possible that Fran had
also sustained internal injuries. The
injured man was taken to his home.
Fran was removing the old stack
with a block and tackle, lowering
it along the north side Of the build
ing, when n of the ropes holding
the scaffold broke. He landed
on the edge of the corrugated iron
roof in the rear of Callan's store,
bent the iron and slid along a loose
piece projecting from the roof to
the ground, burying his face in a
pile of ashes. the ashes becoming
imbedded in his face and scratch
ing him badly.
Fran was lowering himself from
the roof when the rope broke and
it is thought he would have been
killed had the rope broken a few
seconds before it did, and it is
believed he would have been much
more severely injured had his fall
not been broken when he struck the
roof, as he is a heavy man.

KAISER MAY SOON
FEAR THIS STATE
r THAT DRAFT WILL HIT
HARD AT NEVADA'S Pop
UIATION ~

Sheriff Ingalls, has received a tel
egram from Adjutant General Maui
rice Sullivan which quotes the fol-
lowing communication received by
the adjutant general from Provost
Marshal General Crowder at Wash
ington:
Quotas are to be assigned to the
several states in proportion to their
population, as determined by the
bureau of census, and not in pro-
portion to the registration. The re-
suit is that every person who has
failed to register is seriously IN
creasing the burden of those who
have registered. Ample notice and
every opportunity has now been CIV
en- and there is no longer any ar
gument upon which the conduct OF
eligible persons not registered can
be condoned.
1.-The time of leniency referred to
in my telegram of June 6 has now
passed. 1t is requested that every
effort be now made to detect and
arrest persons subject to registra-
ton who have not registered. Wide
publicity should be given to the eff
feet of non-registration in increas-
ing the burden of those who have
registered"
The telegram from the adjutant
general urges great activity on the
part of officials in apprehending per-
son who have failed to register.
N%evada's quota as determined by
the bureau of census is believed to
be based on an estimated population
of 16,5O0 of military age I'm the
state and, as it is estimated that the
registration will not exceed 1900,
it begins to look as though a Nevada
man who will not be given an OPP
pOrtunity to learn French will be a.

BIG DOUBLE BILL
RED CROSS SHOW
ELKS STAGE MUSICAL COMEDY
AND MINSTREL
SHOW

Interest is being aroused in the
big double home talent show to be
given within the next three weeks by
the Elks for the benefit of the Gold
field chapter of the Red Cross. Ev-
erything points to one of the biggest
and best minstrel and musical come
dy shows ever staged here.
Harry Ennis will be assisted in
preparing for the show by his daugh-
ter, Agnes, who will take charge of
the dancing and posing in THE Isle
of Spice" the grand old bill by
Lowe and Stoddard. In addition to
this the Elks are going to put over
the footlights 80 minutes of min
strelsy for a curtain raiser that will
be fast and furious.
The minstrel show will open in a
cabaret, a new feature now being
adopted in the east. Colonel Ferry
is said to be connected with the min
strel show in a leading part and
that he will be fine, frisky, foxy,
frivolous and ferociously funny is
assured, as there has never yet
been a ball pitched too high for him
to reach.
The best musical and dramatic
talent obtainable in the town is be-
ing rounded up and rehearsals will
start tonight at the Elks' club.
1t is said that between now and
the date of the performance there
will be much talk about this show,
all of which will confirm the belief
that it will be a hummer.

OWNERSHIP OF PONY IS
CLAIMED BY TWO PERSONS
REGAIN ANIMAL WE'RE UN-
SUCCESSFUL

Jack Givens, a nan of many trou-
bles, has additional trials. This
time it is a pony. 1t is said there
is a difference of opinion between
Roy Bartlett, who lives under the
malapai to the west of town, and
Givens as to the ownership of the
pony and that yesterday afternoon
Givens attempted to lead the pony
from where it was standing in front
of the court house.
Earlier in the afternoon it is said
that Givens had in some n in
duced a boy named Carey to
attempt to take the pony from John
Black, Bartlett's son. According to
report Carey was unsuccessful and
the attempt resulted in Bartlett and
his wife going to the court house
to have a warrant issued for the
arrest of Carey. They were in the
justice court when Owens. it is said,
attempted to lead away the pony.
Bartlett and his wife reached the
street before Given could get away,
witnesses state, and persons who
claim to have seen the melee that
followed say that Givens was rough
ly used and that his defense was
entirely inadequate.
The pony in dispute was brought
to Goldfield some years ago by
Walter st. Pierre, who later sold
it to Harry Schwaikert. From Sch
waikert it passed into the possession
of Billy Murray and finally the own
ership of the animal was claimed
by Owens. 1t is said that the pony
was turned over to Bartlett by
Owens to be cared for and that
the basis of the present dispute is
a $40 feed bill alleged to have been
contracted by Bartlett during the
time he has had the pony.

YELLOW PINE HAS
BONANZA 0REB0OY
NEW DISCOVERY PRONOUNCED
MOST IMPORTANT YET
MADE IN DISTRICT

The new body Of ore opened in
the Yellow Pine Mine On the 700
level. as announced last week,
proves to be the most important
development of zine ore in the his
tory of the district. During this
week the drift has been driven
through the body which proves to
be 20 feet in thickness of solid
high-grade ore. The width of the
new o%rebody is a matter of conjec-
ture and 1t extends from the 700
level both up and down for an in
definite distance.
The fact that the new discovery
is made in ground which has never
before been penetrated is of great
significance, adding a tremendous
tonnage to the ore u of the
property and giving a further assur-
ance if any were needed, of I'M
diminished ore production for years
to come.
The stockholders of the Yellow
Pine are deeply appreciative of the
genius of Manager Fred A. Hale,
Jr.. in driving through the fault
ing plane into the unknown ground
and successfully picking up this
great body of ore. 1t is only by
the most careful study of the
ground and the application Of the
most advanced methods Of scientific
deduction that such operations can
be successfully carried out.-Good-

In his address to the Confederate
veterans in Washington on regis
tration day President Wilson said:
will you not support me in
feeling hat there is some signifi-
canoe in this coincidence; that this
day, when l come to welcome you
to the national capital, is a day
when men young as o we're in
those old days, when you gathered
together to fight, are now register
ing their names as evidence of this
great idea, hat in a democracy the
duty to serve and the privilege to
serve fall upon all alike?
There is something very fine,
my fellow citizens, in the spirit of
the volunteer, but deeper than the
volunteer spirit is the spirit of
obligation. There is not a man of
us who must not hold himself
ready to be summoned to the duty
of supporting the great government
under which we live.

The literary and library extern
sion department of the Nevada
Federation of Women's clubs has
just closed the Robert McCutcheon
Brown Memorial - a contest in
short story writing. This prize is
offered by Mr.. Hugh Brown of
Tonopah in memory of his father,
and since Mr.. Browns father was a
soldier it seemed to n chairman
most fitting that the awards be
made on Decoration Day. AS no
contest was held last year thirty
dollars was available as prize money
so three prizes were offered of SIS,
$40 and So respectively. Six high
school students entered the contest,
and prizes were awarded as fol-
lows: Mr.. Edward Quill of Carson
City high school, an Indian myth
entitled "Squaw Face" received
first prize. Records of the month
of June, from the Diary of a Col
Helen Wogan of Sparks was deemed
second best. In Difficulties of Sheep
Raising" Miss Grace Mills of
Churchill County high school of Fal-
Ion, carried a splendid theme, and
captured third place. One story
deserving of especial mention was
Dead Mans Grotto," written by
Arthur James of Elko high school.
This story was most artistic in its
description of them all. It's char
acters stood out most wildly. There
was a charm in the grotesqueness
of this plot, that marks its young
author as a talented aspirant to
literary fame. ''The Man From No
where" by Lola Adamson of Car
son City high school was also a
well-written story. RIP Van Win
kle, The Second" by Abner Sewell
of Elko high school showed good
effort. Considering the fact that
our course of study plans for no
time in short story work, these
young people showed talent and per-
severance; but where were the
stories from the southern cities of
the state? We sincerely hope more
schools will enter next yea The
judges were Mrs. B. F.. Bleasdale of
Reno, Mr.. j. E. Campbell, of Ma
son, Miss Sybil Howe of Yerington.
