DIR. BREMEN
LOSES FIGHT

Saturday afternoon the supreme
court of Nevada handed down a de-
cision in the application of DR.. Will
liam A. Bremen for a writ of habeas
corpus, denying the writ, and order
ing the petitioner to the custody of
the peace officers of Pennsylvania.
Some three years ago DR.. Bremen
canse to this state and located in
IGardnervile, where he practiced and
became popular Later he moved to
Eureka. became a member of the ex
Iamining board in the draft. as well as
being a member of the county council
of defense.
After more than the legal time for
residence he secured a divorce from
his wife in Pennsylvania, she also fill
ing a similar action in Pennsylvania.
The doctor was granted hs divorce
in Eureka Following his divorce he
married another woman. The east
ern wife then made application for
his return to his home state for de-
sertion and failure to provide. An in
dctment was found and a warrant
issued The governor of Pennsyl-
vania sent an officer with a warrant
for the return of the doctor and Gov
ernor Boyle recognized the warrant
and issued return for the same.
The habeas corpus proceedings fol-
lowed with the result that the doc
tor returns to his home state. For
a time compromise was believed to
be offered, as the eastern wife de-
manded a certain money settlement to
drop the changes This fell through
and she demanded his return.
This in no way effects the divorce
granted in Nevada. nor does the court
reverse itself from the Robertson de-
cision. as in that case the crime was
alleged in one state and application
for return came from another. 1t is
the contention of the court that the
extradition in line with the statutes
of the two states and there being no
conflict that the writ must be denied.

AUTO TOURISTS SHOULD HAVE
THEIR IDENTIFICATION CARDS

When the automobile owner receives
his license number from the secretary
of safe he also receives card of
Identification. with the motor number
the owners name and other points
of identification. The license pur-
chaser in many instances forgets all
about his identification card. and while
this is all right in his own immediate
section. troubles come when he crosses
the summit and drifts into the hands
OF the traffic cops on the other side.
In the past month or more several
Nevada people have been held up in
California towns all on account of for
getting this card furnished with the
license plate, says the Cason News.
If you are going travelling take
along the Identification card. 1t will
save lot of trouble and delays. So
many machines are moving these days
that the traffic men have no respect
for machine or the parties driving it.
1t is all matter of protection against
theft Put the little card on your in
side pocket and don't forget it.

BIG ARMY PLANE
LANDED HERE
SATURDAY

Last Saturday afternoon the hum of
an aeroplane motor was heard by the
people of Carson Valley and a little
later the machine, like tiny bird in
the sky was seen as ii dipped over the
Sierra Nevada range and began a
graceful descent over Carson Valley
The machine was watched by hun
dreds of people and when it gained a
point over Minden it began to circle,
reaching a very low altitude. Many
believed that the aviators were in
trouble and were TO make forced
landing AS the great plane came
lower and lower it circled over Min
den and Gardnerville and finally
landed in the fields of the Dangberg
Land and Livestock company north of
first aeroplane to land in Douglas
county.
The plane had hardly settled to the
ground before hundreds of automo-
biles were or their way to the landing
field to ascertain the cause and get a
glimpse of the De Haviland bombing
plane.
Lieutenant Goldberg was pilot
ing the machine from Sacramento to
Reno, and being a personal friend of
H. F. Dangberg. decided to stop in
Carson Valley and pay brief visit
to Mr. Dangberg. After a stop of
about two hours the pilot and ma
chnest bid adue To their friends,
climbed into their machine and were
soon on their way to Reno. While
here the machine was viewed by hun
dreds of people from all parts of the
County, automobiles being parked
over a hundred acre field near the
giant De Haviland plane.
The trip from Sacramento to Carson
Valley was made in exactly 55 minutes.

twenty-six units have been filed upon

and some are already seeding part
Besides the twenty-siX units which
have already been filed upon, about
as much more land has been applied
for and the first installment paid.
These units average about 80 acres
each
There is much very good land in
the Soda Lake district and now that
the people have found that by max
ing application TO the government
for it they can have it opened for
them. this is being done. Those who
have made application so far include
both local people and strangers who
have come in for the purpose of locat-
ing. 1t is gratifying to know that
the project is growing steadily in
spite of the handicaps it is working
under at present and with the salts
