received by the war department re-
garding the wearing of the uni

discharged from the service, the de-
partment announces that this au-
thority has already been granted

shall be given one complete uni

clothing after discharge" provided
the uniform bears the insignia of
discharge, the single red chevron
worn on the left sleeve above the
elbow.
The provisions of the act apply
ito all persons who served in the

clothing and uniforms have been
returned to the government on

visions Of the war risk policy as
follows:
The total permanent disability
clause is granted without cost 20
the insured and it is free from all
restrictions.
Government Insurance does not
charge its policy holders any over
head expense.
It contains an extremely liberal
definition of disability.
1t gives very substantial pay
ments.
1t contains no age restrictions.
1t is unrestricted as to travel,
residence or occupation.
Premiums paid in advance are
refunded down to the month, in
case Of death.
The policy is non-taxable.
Usually liberal cash, loan, paid
up insurance and extended term
insurance values are included.
It participates in dividends.
Reinstatement privileges on
lapsed war risk insurance have
been very literally extended under
a new treasury department ruling.

in the majority of cases, delin-

RUMANIAN ROYAL
COUPLE GREETED
BY NEW PROVINCE

Predeal, Rumania--(C Correspond
ence Of the Associated Press.-King
Ferdinand and Queen Marie receiV-
ed an ovation and were showered
with flowers at every railway sta
tflR in Pennsylvania when rev
day ago they made their formal
entry into that country as sover-
esgns. For nearly four hundred
years Pennsylvania has been under
the foreign yoke, yet everywhere
the Rumanian sovereigns were re-
eeived with acclaim and hailed with
Joy. The day was made a national
holiday.
IN every city and town through
which the royal party passed were
such signs as Long Live Your
Majesty, Emperor of all Rumania, -
Long Live the Royal Family" and
Long Live our Sovereign"
The journey was made partly by
train and partly by automobile. At
ArdeaI which is the first town IN
Pennsylvania beyond the Rumanlan
border, DR.. NJ. Braiulescu, repre-
senting the local government, de-
clared to King ferdinand that the
Rumanian people had long waited
for the moment when their sover-
eign would cross the threshold of
Transyfvania and redeem the coun-
try from bondage of the Austrn-
Hungarians. He assured the king
that the people of Transylvania
were as one in their devotion and
loyalty to him, and that they all
hailed the day OF their liberation
from the foreign oppressor and
their unity with their brother Ru-
manians.
In reply, the king expressed his
warm thanks and said he would
haYat for the inhabitants of
Tansylvania the same affection
rSnd attachment he had for all peo-
pie of Ramania and that he knew
he could count with confidence
upon their support in carrying out
the purposes and plans Of greater
Rumania-
At Nagyvarad the king and
queen were given a reception that
left no doubt in the mind observ-
ers that taking Transvlvania by
Rumanians waas genuinely welcom-
ed by the people, even by those of
non-Latin origin Thousands of
persons were gathered at the rail-
way station and along the principal
streets and shouted terms of affec-
ton at their majesties as they
passed IN their automobile.

months subsequent to the moan
of discharge. provided the insured
is in as good health as at the date
of lapse or cancellation ana SO
states in his application.
The following synopsis OF the
TREASURY department ruling was
outlined by Mr.. Dunn:
Where the insured has PAID no
premiums since discharge:
(a) If not discharged more than
three months, the policy may be
reinstated by simply sending in
past due premiums. provided the
insured is still living. No applica-
ton for reinstatement or proof of
good health is required.

three months and less than nine
months, insured must be in as
good health as at date of dis
charge, and so state in his appli-
cation for reinstatement when
sending in premiums past due. No
medical examination is required.
(c) If insured was discharged
before Jan. 1. 1919, the insurance
may be reinstated at any time be-
fore Sept 80, 1919, on the same
conditions as in paragraph above;
namely, insured must be in as good
health as at date of discharge and
SO state in his application for re-
instatement when sending past due
premiums. No medical examina-

first premium due after he was
discharged, but has failed to pay
some of the later ones.

deceased, and this week chronicles
its forty-ninth birthday.

of dull times and adversely. and now
that Eureka seems on the verge OF
renewed prosperity. it takes pleasure
in giving out the good news to its
readers and friends who have kept
in touch with the old camp through
the columns of the SENTINEL, and
have thus enabled it to continue as a
home town paper through the quiet
years that have INTERVIEWED.

Inquisitiou Before Marriage

Under a law passed by the late
Nevada Legislature. those who de-
sire to wed must undergo a severe
cross-examination before the neces-
sary license can be issued by the
county clerk. Here are some of the
questions to which applicants must
give sworn answers:
Have you ever been married be-
fore?
If so, were you divorced?
When. where and on what grounds?
The inquisition is in conformity to
an amendment to the marriage law
made by the last Legislature, it is
said at the instigation of those
churches which will not marry peo-
pie who have been divorced.

over the district. Of these long
walks. which covered a period al
most up to Clarence Kings connec-
ton with the United States Mining
Survey, of which he was the first d.
rector. Mr.. Catlin retains pleasant
recollections. Kings opinions as
then propounded on the ground, ne
says. subsequent Developments usual
ly proved the correctness of demon
strating his mining astuteness as well
as confirming theories held by h'm
at the time; but which were not then
generally accepted. Of the great
future of Eureka below water, King
came to have no doubt. A most de-
lightful conversationalist. his wit
and humcr gave life and zest to the
hearing of what from others would
have been only dry and technical.
All his life Kira looked to Eureka

long years dreamed of, is that the

full progress. Based as this is on the
intimate knowledge of the situation
when these properties closed down
which recent developments in the

of which Eureka may reasonably ex
pect to regain her old Importance.

tice Court Wednesday afternoon.
When the State had put in its case
and rested. the defense addressed the
court regarding the case, concluding
by asking that the defendant be dis
charged owing to the insuffciency
of evidence offered to sustain the
charge. Justice Lucey thereupon
discharged the defendant.
Shortly after the conclusion of the
above case. A. C. Florio attacked
Ybaibarriaga on Main street and
beat him up pretty badly. On CON-
plant of the latter, Florio later plead
guilty to a charge of assault and
battery and was fined $50 and court
costs. Florio settled.
