friends who will regret his departure
but wish him success In his new field.

HO7ELKEE'PERS OF NEUADA
ARE HONEST INDIUIDUALS

While Judge c. J. McFadden was
in Eureka last week Landlord Nor
ris of the Europa hotel handed him
a pocketbook containing a sizable
roll of bank notes which the landlord
had found under his guests pillow
and asked the judge IL he
could locate the owner. The pocket
hook bore the name of &c. A. Pons.
and as Judge McFadden is we'll ac-
quainted with Fred G. Pons OF East
Ely he at once associated the names
and brought the poeketbook and con-
tents with hi1i on his return to Ely
and made it point TO hunt up Fred
Pons.
Everything was at once made clear,
as c. A Pons and Fred c. Pons are
brothers and the former, who had
attended the national convention of
Elks at Los Angeles, had stopped at
Eureka on his way from southern
California to his home in Utah. lie
had not missed the pocketbook until
his arrival home and had no idea
as to where he had lost il. On ar
rivel at his home he had written his
brother Fred in East Ely, where he
had stopped for a short visit. telling
him Of the loss and asking him If he
had by any chance seen anything
of IL AS 1t turned out Fred Pons
was enabled short time thereafter
to forward pocketbook and money to
his brother. The sum of money was
S75 in bills.
II is fortunate circumstance for
the owner when lost money-as in

honest person. who takes steps to
locate the loser. and did so several
