TIME LIMIT FOR WAR RISK
INSURANCE Is EXTENDED

The time for filing applications for
war risk insurance under the United
States governments plan for insuring
the lives of men in service has been
extended until April II. according to
advices just received from the council
of national defense. The method of
automatically insuring men, without
formality of application, has been en-
.irely discontinued. and no man will
be insured unless he applies in the
regular manner.
AS it is possible that Nevada men
IN the training camps will overlook
this very important matter in the
hurry of war preparation, it is urged
upon their relatives and friends that
they bring every influence to bear, SO
that our boys shall not go to France
uninsured. This act of applying for
insurance is a vital and necessary pre-
caution, and the war risk insurance
policy is the best possible nest-egg for
the future dependents.
Mention this when you write to your
boys or your friends in the army Of
navy.

ELkO GIRL KNEW HER VALUE.
SAYS SENATOR HENDERSON

Senator Charles B. Henderson of
Nevada smiled when reference at a
dinner was made to the beauty of
frank admission. He said he was re-
minded of an incident along that line.
A charming young girl, who lives
back in Elko, his home town, recently
went to an adjacent city to visit some
friends. While there she was induced
to take part in bazaar, and was put
in charge of the confectionery booth.
Eventually a middle-aged man was
led that way.
They tell me that must buy some
chocolates" he smilingly remarked to
the fair visitor, picking up a box of
the confectionery. How much is
this?'
Five dollars, SIR" answered the
girl, without any visible evidence of
conscientious pangs.
'Um," thoughtfully returned the
victim. glancing from the chocolates
to the girl, aren't you little dear?"
Well" coyly rejoined the charming
one, that's what all the Elko boys
say Philadelphia Telegraph.

SPELMAN CALLED
FOR BIG WAR JOB

Official announcement was made by
w. w. Armstrong, State fuel admins
traitor, yesterday. that the activities
of the district car service bureau,
with headquarters in this city, would
be terminated at once.
AT the same time the additional
announcement was made that j. S.
Spelman, who has been director of
the bureau since its creation last Oc-
tober, had taken a Government posi-
ton, with headquarters in the Nation
al capital, and that he would not re-
turn here.
Mr.. Spelman, whose work as the
director of the car service bureau has
won him recognition all over the
West was called TO Washington about
ten days ago by Colonel d. c. Jackling
and Lafayette Hanchett, who have
been in charge of the building of mu-
nitions plants for the Government at
Charleston, w. Va, and Nashville,
Tenn. and was offered the position
of director of traffic for the two big
plants. Mr.. Spelman's exact title is
director of the traffic bureau for
the transportion of materials for the
munitions plants"
The plants will cost $50,000,000 each
and it is the aim of the Government
to have them in running order by
September J. 1t is estimated that
s1000.00 a week will be expended on
each of the two plants until they are
completed and Mr.. Spelman is the
man whose duty it will be to see that
the material is on hand when it is
needed. The position pays $4,000 a
year and expenses.
The creation of the bureau was the
idea of w. w. Armstrong, and its sue
cess in the solution of the coal prob
em which has confronted Utah and
djoining states every winter for
ears was even greater than was ex-
oected of it. AS the fuel problem for
the present year is solved, it was
deemed best to discontinue the bu-
reau.
Mr.. Spelman yesterday offered po-
7itions by wire to four members of
his old office force in this city. and
the tender was accepted. The men
are L. J. Hilton, who was chief clerk
for Mr.. Spelman in the car service bu-
reau; d. A. Fitzpatrick, ]. r. Austin
and J. A. Smith. inspectors. They will
leave Salt Lake for Washington to-
morrow
F. +. Armstrong also left the city
yesterday for Washington, having
been called to take position with

dent

BONANZA DAYS OF
VIRGINIA RECALLED

The following from the Examiner
will be read with much local interest:
Bonanza days on the Comstock were
recalled yesterday to the old timers
of the financial district by the news
that the Bank of California, National
Association, had called a meeting of
its stockholders for February 26 for
the purpose of authorizing and ap.
proving the discontinuance of the
banks branch agency at Virginia 1ity.
President Frank b. Anderson ex-
planned yesterday that the branch
bank. having ceased to pay, was dis
continued some months ago, and the
meeting of the stockhold RS is to
ratify the action of the directors
Still working for the Bank of Cali
fornia and occupying prominent posi-
tions are two men who remember the
old Virginia City branch in the palmy
days of the Comstock lode. They are
S. II. Daniels, now assistant cashier
of the Bank of California, and con-
neeted with II since 1862 and George
A. Morgan. who served as cashier of
the Virginia City branch of the bank
in 1878, when multimillionaires were
as numerous among the sand dunes
around Virginia City as jack rabbits
are today.
George A. Morgan said: The Vir-
ginia City branch was opened coin
cidentally with the organization of the
Bank of California by William C.
Ralston, as | remember it. That was
in 1864. | went to Virginia City as
cashier of the branch in 1873. and in
those days two of the mines controlled
by Mackay and Fair and Flood and
oBrien were producing $4,000 900
month each and continued this pro-
duction of the precious metals for
more than two years. / cannot say
offhand, after all these years. what
was the biggest days business that
the Virginia City branch ever did, but
do know that our total cash footings
averaged more than $1000,00 a day
for some weeks.
