BREAK IN MAIN
PIPE CAUSES A
WATER SHORTAGE

The reason for the streets not be-
ing sprnkled this morning was be
cause Of break or leak in the
main pipe line between the reser-
voir north of town and this place.
This morning the chief of the fire
department, Charles Askin, reported
only six feet of water remaining in
the fire tanks, which have been sup
plying domestic users for the past
three days, and owing to the prevail
ing wind it would be dangerous to
let the tanks get much lower. The
break was repaired this afternoon
and the pumps started to refill the
tanks. This explanation is for our
honored guests, the Masonic frater-
nifty of Nevada, who are today wip-
ing the dust from their eyes owing
to the wind holding sway. At q
D. m. the fire boys were laying the
dust with the limited amount of wa
ter available.
! 1t behooyes all water consumers
to curtail consumption for the next
few days in order that the tanks
on Brougher mountain may be re
IfHed. II a confagration had started
last night or this morning, with the
prevailing wind velocity, Tonopat
would have been wiped from the
man. There should be some sigI
or method Of warning TO water con
cumers to curtail usage during
break in the main line. The towT
hoard should insist on a daily re
port from the Water Company as t.

LOCAL Shrine
CLUB Dance A
GREAT EVENT

The grand ball given last evening
at the Airdome by the Shrine Club
of Tonopah to the visiting Masons
and their ladies was the most elabo-
rate and enjoyable affair ever wit
messed and attended by the Masonic
fraternity in Nevada More than 800
Masons and ladies participated in
the grand march The gowns worn
by the ladies' were the most gorge
Gus and up-to-date of national mod
istes. The floor was in perfect con-
dition and Reno visitors claimed It
was the finest dance floor in the
state. The evenings success was
assured by the local Shrine cldb
members, who refrained from dane.
ing so as to see that all visitors did
not miss one dance. Lichtenberg' S
orchestra furnished the music, and
that it was up-to-the-m minute is prov
ven by the many complimentary re-
marks by members of the Shriners
band of Reno, who state that the
orchestra is the peer of all musi-
cal organizations in Nevada.
The visiting Masons are of one
opinion that "Tonopah knows how
to do it," and each one says our
entertainment has been superb, and
to think of it, away out here on
the desert
The dancers did not cease their
festivities until the medley was call
ed at 2 o'clock this morning, ant
they were reluctant to depart, a:
the evening had been a wonderful
one. The Shrine club dance was
pronounced one of the greatest af
fairs of the kind ever held in thi:
state.

CRITICIZE The
ENTENTE OVER
REP EPARATIONS

COPENHAGEN, April %. The
steps taken by the entente nations
to compel Germany to pay the war
reparations are being criticized in
the financial and industrial circles
of Scandinavian countries. Appre-
hension is expressed that these
measures will also have a punitive
effect on the neutral countries.
There can be no doubt" said a
prominent Danish manufacturer to
the correspondent. that Denmark
and other neutral countries, especial
ly those bordering on Germany, will
be swamped by German manufac-
lures to the great detriment Of our
national industries, a great many Of
which will be ruined for one
think that it is high time that those
countries, who for one reason or
other, took a neutral attitude in the
great war, got together and agreed
on a joint policy for protecting our
own interests"
A well known Danish politician, Dr..
IL. V. Brick, professor Of economics
in the University of Copenhagen,
said in an interview:
The tragedy of the situation is
that Germany will not pay, and can
not even if she would Her home
debt has passed the sum of S66,0oo
100000. The indemnity insisted
upon adds an amount equivalent to
the whole value Of Germany's ma
tional wealth according to pre-war
standard
Another tragedy is that France
knows that a policy Of a stern Shy
lcck asking for the last ounce of
human flesh is absurd, and yos she
is comre'led t. stick to the guns ui
her demands. Unless she keeps up
her faith in the solvency Of Ger.

This then the triple curse OF
the present European situation: Ger

WILDES ON STAND
when STATE BANK
HEARINGS Open

The hearing of the State Bank
reeciyership matter was resumed
yesterday morning before Judge
Langan, according to the Carson
Appeal, with Receiver Frank Wildes
on the stand.
Attorney Chartz asked the witness
many questions relative to the trans
actions Of the bank since Wildes
took over the affairs. Wildes sub
mitted a report showing all of the
receipts and disbursements, which
were questioned and explained
The report shows that the net re-
ceipts amounted to 652,449.9S; Of
this amount the depositors received
$22S, 1896, and there is on hand the
sum of SS,442.32. The expenses en-
braced all of the law suits, the
clearing of accounts, the costs of
collections, salaries, insurance and'
taxes. q
The most important feature Of the
mornings hearings was brought out
by Attorney Chartz. He asked Mr..
Wildes what in his best judgment
was to be done with the affair as it
stands today.
Wlldes stated that he believed by
honding all the property intact for
one year the depositors would be
paid another dividend ranging from
10 to 1lla per cent; if forced sale
of all the properties weer insisted
on that not over a "a per cent divi
dent could be realized,
On forced sale it was shown that
the Tonopah bank property might
bring $4,000, the Carson bank Sl5,-
600 and the Crocker building $4,000,
while the Manhattan mining claims
might bring $4,000, at the same mo.
ment the latter ground is held by a
concern under a 100000 bond, the
bond to run one year.
It was evident from the expires.
sion Of the attorneys that they will
recommeud the forced sale plan, a
complete cleanup OF the banks in
terests and the discharge Of the re-
ceiver
During the progress OF the morn
iugs session Il was iaumated that
the attorneys conducting the hearing
