ITS WICKED TO SEND BOOZE
TO YOUR LADY FRIEND, 1T i

The first arrest in Winnemucca for
violation of the prohibition law was
made yesterday by Constable Moore.
David Z. Roach was the victim of the
heavy hand of the law. He is accused
of violating the statute by sending to
Daisy Schultz. a colored woman, a
bottle of whisky. For some reason
the lady did not appreciate the gift,
so she sent for Constable Moore and
delivered the whisky to him, together
with a missive which accompanied the
gift. A complaint was worn to and
Roach was arrested.
The case came up for hearing in
Justice Ritchie's court this morning
and was put over until Monday at 10
o'clock Am. The course the. case will
take. whether on a lesser charge Of
misdemeanor or the more serious one
of gross misdemeanor, with a possible
State prison sentence, depends on the
action of the district attorney.

Der scraps gathered up In the stores

They Will Combat Mosquitoes That
Breed Malaria.

NV O. .
Start a bat roost and help rid the
country Of disease, is the admOnitloh
of DR.. Charles A. Campbell of San An
tonic, who recently attended the
Southwestern Medical association
meeting at Dallas.
Malaria, he says, is one of mans
worst enemies, and the lowly bat as
a cOmbatant T. the disease is highly
valuable. Doc %, Campbell has worked
on his theory -~c II years, perfecting
it scientifically only during the war.
"The malaria mosquito and the bat
are both nocturnal and the mosquito
furnishes 30 per cent Of the bats
food" he said. "All that is needed to
combat the mosquito and resultant ma
laria is to furnish the bat with a home.
4 roost similar to the method in keep
ing bees in ones back yard will suffice,
for the bat knows its home and will
return after a nights f~oraging. In
my back yard | have many Of these
sanitary workers"

CALUMET BAKING
POWDER is PURE
Housewives Now More Than Ever
Before Realize the Importance
of Purity in Food Products

1t used to be that INSCRIPTIONS
manufacturers were at liberty to foist
rankly adulterated ~foodstufs onto the
unsuspecting housewife. This produc-
tion of low grade, frequently worth
less and often injurious merchandise
gained such strides that the govern
ment stepped in with Pure Food legis-
lation and checked it. This measure
of protection aroused housewives to
the situation and the Importance Of
utmost purity in articles of table use.
And as a result of this awakening
wise housewives have set a higher
standard of purity than the Food
Laws demand. The federal and state
authorities have cut off to a great
extent the manufacture of products Of
an injurious nature. The great ma
jority of housewives have gone even
farther and insist on absolute purity.
This IS evidences in the tremendous
and ever increasing demand for Calu-
met Baking Powder. There are many
different brands of Baking Powders
on the market. All that are on the
market are made within the limits
of the law" are as pure as the law
demands. Calumet Baking Powder is
as pure as it can be made. It pos
sesses no adulterants-no useless fill
ers-no impurities-no injurious prop
critics of any sort. 1t is composed Of
the highest grade materials procur-
able. So proportional and blended
they remain pure.
Another point which shows that
Calumet is way beyond the measure
of merit required by law, is that it
stays pure in the baking. 1t leaves
no harmful residue, as do many pow
ders that comply with the pure food
standard. The bakings produced with
Calumet Baking Powder are not only
light, fluffy and tasty, but wholesome
and healthful. which really is the final
test of any Baking Powders purity.
The high, way-above-the-law excel
lence of Calumet, represents purity in
the extreme, and that is what the wise
housewife now demands. She no
longer wants a Baking Powder that
is good enough to get by the law
she wants the BEST.

JeweIer, Had Gems Taken From
Settings and Replaced by Paste
Emissary Carries Them to Gar
mas Paternal Kinsmen in Germany.
How the Russian crown jewels were
Struggled out Of the empire and saved
to the house of RomanoT from the Pill
Iage and confscation Of the revolution
is a romantic story told in Chic % by
a Russian of noble blood T'" escaped
from his native country by OF
V~Iadivostok and recently arrived in
the United States.
The imperial jewels are among the
worlds largest collections. In dla-
monds and pearls alone they are
worth many millions of dollars. Dia-
monds and pearls are now regarded
as among the safest means of consery-
ing money. The war has more than
doubled their value and jewelers. de-
clare their price will increase for sew
eral years after the war. So when
the revolution began to rock the Rus
sian throne, the czarina's first thought
to save the crown jewels to in
sure her family against the threat
ened period of misfortune.
Removed in Secret.
She summoned the roy jeweler
secretly by night to the palace of
T~zarkoe-Selo. There under her per
sonal supervision he removed all the
gems from their settings and replaced
them with paste limitations. Then EN-
ploying one of her near relatives as
emissary, she smuggled the collec-
ton cut of P~etrograd on a naval YES
sci. Through Sweden and Denmark
the special messenger finally made his
way into Germany and delivered the
Jewels to the czarlna's p%aternal kins-
men in esse-Darmstadt. There the
gems now repose in safety in the treas
ury of the principally.
For a long time no one in Russia
not in the secret knew the gems had
been removed. The imperial collec-
ion ~ostensibly continued to be~~kept

Some Notable Gems.
Among the salvaged jewels were the
black pearl of Catherine IL
and the historic Orloff diamond weigh
ing 194% carats. The Orloff was stOi-
en- originally by a soldier from the eye
a statue of Buddha in a Hindu tenn
pie. 1t was bought by Prince Orloff,
one of the ~favorites of Catherine IL
for half a million dollars and present
ed to the empress. The Orloff and the
KohinOor, which blazes in the crown of
England, are thought to be parts of the
Great Mogul, a magnificent Indian dia-
mond which disappeared mysteriously
the seventeenth century.
Car Nicholas is dead, but If the
czarina has not shared his fate, as
has been reported, she may yet re-
claim the imperial jewels and with

BARN COLiAPSES
 ON BEECH STREET
Livestock Have Miraculous Escape When Weight of Ice Causes Barn
 of A. M. Edgar to Fall.

The rear of the livery barn be- longing to A. M Edgar, located on Beech street, collapsed Monday ev- ening about 7;30 under the weight of ice and snow on the roof. There was eighty-five head of stock in the barn belonging to MT. Lewis of Quinton, Okla, Mr. Bridges from Joplin, Mo. and MT. Owen from New Mexico. There was no one at the stable when the roof caved in, but 8 negro, living just across the alley near by heard the noise, and with an axe chopped an opening in the back wall large enough for the horses and mules to get out. This was all that was necessary as the noise so fright ened the poor animals that they ran from the building in time to escape injury. It is almost miraculous that so many horses and mules escaped in so short a time through so small an opening. The building presents a scene of chaos and represents a loss to MT. Edgar of about S1,000. The wreck will be torn away and the building put in order as soon as the weather conditions will permit.

SUMMARY IF
 WAR ACTIVITY Austrians Continue Their Cry For a General Peace On Previously
 Offered Terms.
Associated Press Dispatch.

RSSOclateu TTeSS DlSpaGcH
 New York, Jan. Austria Hun gary will continue to strive for a general peace, but on terms previous ly offered. This is the answer given leaders of the discontented Austrian workmen who have quit work and de- manded peace by the Austrian pre- mier. No new peace terms were enunciated. Labor leaders were told the responsibility of the contin- uation of war rests upon the Entente. Electorial reforms and relaxation of rigid military law was promised and leaders asked their comrades to re- sume work The latest information, however, is that the strike still is in progress with disorders in some places.
 The resignation of the Austrian ministry is reported by a Berlin news paper, but with no confirmation.
 Almost complete inactivity contin- ues on the fronts in France and Ita- ly. On the Macedonian front the Bulgarians attacked French positions west of Vardar. The Bulgarians en- tered French trenches at one point, but were thrown out by Greek troops.

Besides calling for more muffled profanity from us men and more to- bacco for our pipes and then more patience from the women, bless 'em, this thing of operating on night schedule knocks a hole in the office exchequer. But the Independent isn't broke yet, and still has bountiful amount of determination to give the public the best in stock.
