fCCElSTON CLAIMS HIS
FORMER UNDERSTUDY IS APT
Z. V. Eggleston is Suing Former
Member of his Board of Directors
For Corporation Stock

{. V. Eggleston, president of the
Union Securities Company, what
ever that is. and whilom guiding
spirit of the Nevada Colony corpora
tion, now the owner of a ghost city
east of Fallon that was ono digni-
fled with the appellation, Nevada
City, is suing Marie Woodson,
formerly a member of the Nevada
Colony Corporation board of direc-
tors, for $2500, alleged by Eggle-
ston to be the amount due him from
Woodson for stock to the amount of
$500 shares of a par value of one
dollar, which was withheld from
him, according to Eggleston by
Woodson, who counters with the al
legation that the stock in question
was purchased by him for Eggle-
ston and was never delivered for the
reason that Eggleston failed to pay
him the sum agreed upon.
In the meantime Eggleston has
attached Woodson's bank account,
his Dodge automobile and sundry
other things, and the defendant s
motion to discharge the attachment
put forward in the district court
here last Thursday was denied and
the case will be heard ON its merits
on the 2Sth of this month.

COUNCIL PASSED TWO
ORDINANCES LAST NIGHT
City Council Meeting Resulted In
Transaction of Business of More
Than Ordinary Interest

The city council held an interest
ing meeting last evening adopting
two ordinances affecting the conduct
of alfalfa meal mills and the grant
ing of franchises within the city
limits. BY unanimous vote 1t was
made a misdemeanor to allow the
dust arising from the manufacture
of alfalfa meal to escape and go
pestering around the residential
neighborhoods of the town. Both
milling companies have already de-
clared their intention of installing
machinery for the purpose of confin-
ing the dust and 1t is not believed
that the new regulatory city law will
embarrass the meal companies
Action was taken having for its
rpose the compelling of city prop
erty owners living within SO feet of
sewer main and who have not al
ready done SO to connect residences
with sewers. The city clerk will is
sue notifications giving delinquents
30 days in which to comply with the
order and If they fail the city au-
thorities will proceed with the work
and charge the cost against the prop
erty.
Parrott & Thompson, contractors
recently given a sidewalk construc-
tion award, will be given As hours
from this morning to commence the
work, and unless specific perform
ance is forthcoming the council will
declare the certified check for 5000
from the firm, now in the hands of
the council, forfeited.
The Verdi lumber company was
instructed to remove its wagon

ance of the Importance of the Lake
Tahoe matter by appropriating $25
to defray the expenses of presenting
the Newlands project viewpoint at
the conference to be held in Wash
ington next week. the city being an
interested party in the controversy
inasmuch as the water power from
which the municipal electrical sup
ply Is obtained is derived from the

Reclamation Employees Cannot
Draw Salaries

President Wilson's veto of the
sundry civil appropriations bill this
week, which included provisions for
the reclamation fund, leaves the
reclamation fund without money for
the first time since the fund was Gre
ated in 1902 from the sale of public
lands. AS result reclamation af-
fairs will be at standstill pending
the reconsideration of the bill by
the two branches of the national
legislature. II is claimed that Pres
ident Wilson negated the sundry
civil appropriation bill because the
members of congress failed to re-
spond to administration demands in
the matter of the soldier land settle
