ROUNDUP TO BE
HELD AT RENO

With the intention of making her
the regal sponsor Of the biggest
Fourth of July celebration in the
country this year. the Nevada Round
Up committee has just secured the as
surance Of Miss Viola Dana, famous
motion picture star, that she will
come to Reno from Los Angeles to
preside as queen over the multitude
Of festivities that open there on the
seiond Of July for the big four-day
relebration. AS in the past, the an
nual rodeo will be the stellar attrac-
ment in town will be OF unprecedented
ment In town will be of unprecedented
magnitude. with an automobile and in
dustrial show. a big as camp, carni-
val concessions. and elaborate free
street entertainment all programmed.
The committee is striving particu-
larly to make the Roundup an all
Nevada affair with every section of the
state equally interested with Reno In
1t. To promote this purpose, a state
wide election of Naids of honor to
attend Miss Dana during her stay in
Reno has been instituted. The state
has been divided into ten districts,
each Of which is asked to elect a maid
Of honor, who will be carried to Reno
In state by airplane. The ten maids
of honor win be just as royalty en-
tertained as Miss Dana, whom they
will attend in the dispensation of her
regal Offices, and, with her. will be
guests Of honor at the most elaborate
banquet ever planned for Reno. The
maids of honor will have all expenses
paid by the Roundup committee.
Several innovations are being made
this year in the interest of keener and
more representative competition in
the rodeo events out at the track. The
prize list has been generally increased
and special awards for the best Me-
vada cowboy and the best Nevada
owned bucking horse, to make strong
appeal to talent from this state.

SKELETON Is DISCOVERED
AT PRISON EXCAVATION

Workmen engaged in excavating for
the warden's residence to be erected
on the lawn north of the main prison
building have unearthed the skeleton
of a human being. says the Carson
News. The bones were covered with
rocks and were about two and one
half feet. .blow the surface. No traces
of clothing were found, and 1t was
not possible to tell whether the bones
were those of an Indian or a white
man. A well-defined dent in the skull
indicated that death had resulted from
violence. 1t is believed that the grave
was that Of an Indian. The fact that
about a dozen skulls and bones were
found a number of years ago when a
ditch was being dug a short distance
away causes many to believe that part
of the prison property is the site Of
an old Indian burying ground.

Sd LIBERTY 4 las
AT HIGH OF YEAR
Rise to 93 in Strong and Ac-
tive Bond Market Rails
Firm and Gain Fractions.

The reaction In stocks yesterday was
not reflected in the bond market. which
was active and strong. The buying
movement in all classes of bonds. which
in the last two weeks has lifted prices
to the high levels OF last October, --as
resumed at the start of business. More
than so per cent. OF the days total
sales was accounted for by the United
States war loan group. Bonds OF all
Liberty and Victory issues were up at
the close. but particular attention was
paid to the Liberty third ANS. which
tablished at 90 new high record for
this year. Railroad bonds were Arm,
but advances in that group were con-
fined to small fractions. Among the
most active rails were Baltimore ana
Ohio SIS, Grand Trunk Railway 6s. Great
Northern rs. Burlington 6hs and St.
Louis-San Francisco income 6s. ndus-
trial bonds were in increased demand.

Pont ~ s. Tidewater Oil 6Ias. Sinclair

Utility bonds were slightly easier and
local fractions slipped off little from
their opening levels. Western Union

WHEAT PRICES GO
HIGHER IN CHICAGO
Official Report That August
Exports Exceed Estimates
Bulls Market.

CHICAGO, Sept. 19.-Ohicial announce
ment that August exports of wheat and
-four from the United States were far
above estimates heretofore current had
a decidedly bullish effect on to-day's
wheat market here. Prices closed firm.
Ia to 2& cents net higher, with De-
cember at s1.27% to s1.2s and May at
$1.311a to SLAP. Corn finished shade
to u cent up. oats off b@h cent
to q cent and provisions varying from
10 cents decline TO II cents advance
Bulls figured that after September 80
the exportable surplus of United States
wheat. IL normal carryover should be
allowed for. would be near exhaust ion.
Another stimulus to an advance in prices
came from word that the Argentine ex-
portable surplus had been reduced 16.-
100000 bushels. Wet weather In the
Northwest also counted as bullish
factor. On the other hand. profit taking
sales on the advance were heavy. and
an increase of 4,049,000 bushels In the
United States visible supply caused a
bear drive on prices after midday. Be-
sides. new export business appeared to
lack volvne. Support from bull lead
ers. however. was quickly Forthcoming
and shorts were covering freely at the
last
Corn averaged higher in sympathy
with wheat. but oats tended downward,
largely as result OF a liberal stock In
sight. Higher quotations on hogs and
considerable flrinness into povisions.

BOND NEWS AND NOTES.
High Grade Issue. Sell Quickly.

The capacity of investors to absorb
new issues of first grade character ap-
pears to increase rather than 1tminisn
as fall approaches. That capacity Is
shown not only by advancing prices
and diminishing yields seen In tne Sc
curities market but also by the avidity
with which new offerings are snapped
up and by the orders received by bank
ers for issues which they have no In
tention of placing other than privately.
In certain case of late banking house
purchased some securities at higher than
the market rate, owing to a special use
for the securities. The purchase was
announced In the newspapers and since
the date of that announcement enough
orders accompanied by signed checks
have come in to absorb that issue, but
the checks had to be returned. An
other indication OF that demand wds the
quick distribution yesterday. almost en-
tirely TO investors. of the offering of
s13.500. 900 of the Toledo Edison Com
pany's frst mortgage bonds. The books
were open only two hours and, outside
of members OF the selling syndicate,
dealers got no part of the issue. At
the moment the news of new issues Is
light. but 1t Is understood that an aggre-
gate of many millions Is being groomed
and further information will be available
probably to-day or tomorrow.
