s. S. ERRET IS
UNDER ARREST
STEPS MAY BE TAKEN TO RE.
COMMIT HIM TO
ASYLUM

S. S. Erret, Sr., who since the big
fire on Main street on Saturday
morning has been suspected of being
a firebug and who is said to have
made many strange remarks and
predictions regarding fires, was plac-
ed under arrest early last evening,
after he had been closely watched
for several days.
Sheriff ingalls, yesterday commun-
icated with the Nevada hospital for
mental diseases, from which Erret
was recently released and officials
there advised that he be Immediately
taken into custody. 1t is thought
steps will now be taken to recommit
him to the asylum, as it is believed
by persons who have talked with
him since his return that his stay
there benefited him not at all.
The arrest came about as a result
of watching him, talking with him
and finally as a result of the answer
received from the hospital for insane
at Reno.
Erret's connection with any of
the recent fires has not been estab-
lished, it is understood. but the au-
thorities have decided that it is not
safe to allow him to be at large in
the town. His arrest has been con
sidered since Saturday, but the Of
ficials refrained from placing him in
custody until they were reasonably
certain he could be held, the tele-
gram from Reno finally deciding their
course.

MARCH ACTIVE MONTH
 IN TUBERCULOSIS FIGHT

The report of the Anti i-tubercuosas as- sociation for March has been prepared by the secretary, Dr. George Eaves, as fol- lows:
 Nine thousand dollars must be raised between now and Christmas to meet the needs of the Anti-tuberculosis associa ton. This is approximately one-half of the years expenditures. More than one-sixth of the expenditure is raised by the sale of the Red Cross seals and one-sixth by payment of such patients as are able to contribute all or part of their expenses. The many friends of the association will welcome the opportunity in this year of grave anxiety to prevent the work being damaged.
 During March, 25 patients were treated who were unable to pay anything and 8 others who could only pay a small pro- portion of the cost of their maintenance. The total number of patients handled in the sana torium in March was 40 one-ffth of whom were children Eighteen of the 40 patients are reported improving
 A number of donations were made to the sanatorium work. The ladies of Roe buck Springs, MT. and Mrs. Dewstoe, Mrs. J. R. Berry responded to the call for a cot and mattress. Two mattresses each were given by MT. and Mrs. A. Rich and Mir Sidney Lazarus. The Jewish Ladies' Sewing circle gave seeds, plants and chil- drens clothes, Mrs. Sam Adler bath robe and books, Dr. Dillon dental work and Dr. and Mrs. Walsh one dozen ham, mocks.

 In the dispensary work 66 examina tionS were made during the month, the nurses making 2S2 visits. Fifteen dollars special donations were made for relief of a fam fly in great need of which the mother and one child are being received at the sanatorium. Twenty new cases were re- ported to the board of health, of whom were discovered by nurses of the asso- citation, 17 houses reported for fumigation and 16 deaths by tuberculosis were at- tended by the visiting nurses.
 In the open air school work IA children have been carried through the winter. The only interference with the regularity of work has been by the heavy rains which on two or three days has made the place inaccessible. The health of the children in the open air school shows re- markable improvement.
 The cost of operations during the month was $1462.09.
 An appeal is being n1ade to the large employees of labor to cooperate with the association by the endowment of beds at the rate of $365 pen annum Every church and lodge will be asked to make similar arrangement, with the understanding that nomina tion for occupations of such beds may be made to the dispensary by bers paying s1 a year, 300 members pay ing H monthly and the special donations by large employers on an equitable scale for service rendered by the association would lift the organization free from anxiety and enable it to do a much more extensive educational work than is now possible

Theda Bara returns to the Alcazar to- day in "The Darling of Paris,'' one of the few plays Miss Bara does not feature the vampire role.

She meets him one eve ming and learns that his intentions are not to marry her. She tries to escape and pulls out knife but Frallo, who has secretly followed the two, kills the captain while Esmaralda lies in faint The Darling of Paris is accused of the crime and, when tortured, falsely con- fesses. Quasimodo, who was a witness to the whole affair, turns states evidence and frees the girl even though it meant death to the one who had cured him of his deformity

in large measure, and for many years to come, should occupy the place of servant in this country; this is not a curse as some would interpret, but a blessing; neither does it imply mistreat- ment, for servants should be treated kindly, and paid well for their work, and this is what the white people of the south ought to learn to do This does not imply slavery. The south has long tolerated a system of semi-slavery in her prison camps and coal mines. Nine tenths of the negroes in the convict camps ought tc be turned out Many are in- nocent, others are too severely sen- fenced, while large number are unfor- tunate, for if they had equal representa- tion before the law like white men they never would have been convicted.
 The splendid judge of this circuit a few days ago refused to send poor old ignorant negro to the coal mines for vagrancy because he said that several white men had been turned loose for the same offense, and that all should be treated alike. I wish Alabama had more humane and righteous judges like Judge Almon. It would do more in tangible way to stop the present exodus to the north and east than all the newspaper agitation in the world.
 The negroes in the south have been made to feel that the policeman is persecutor. For in many instances when the sheriff goes to arrest him even for some petty offense, he goes as a hunts man goes to shoot a rabbit. This im- pression should be changed. And if this condition is changed the southern peo- pie need not be alarmed, for there will be enough of us to remain in the south to do all and even more work than we are paid for. And many who have gone will be back in a few months and ask for their same old jobs. And if you want US to fight Germany just open the door of opportunity and see how many negroes will enter. Sincerely yours.
