gress. He estimated such work
might require expenditure of $4,000.
1t was the committees plan to ask
the legislature to appropriate funds
for the work, to be expended under
supervision of the state engineer.
Langwith supplemented Callahan's
talk by stating there would be avail
able 691 900 acres of land for soldier
settlement, to be irrigated by 6910 acre
feet Of water, the project commencing
near the Bull Head ranch and extead-
ing to tn lower end of Paradise VAL
ley. taking in Grass Valley and down
to Lovelock. Langwith Is convinced
enthusiasm must be stirred mp TO
put the scheme over, but did not be-
lieve serious opposition would de-
velop, because of plentiful water for
the purpose. The possibility of such
a reclamation project has long been
recognized.
Members OF the Chamber voted
unanimously to support the project
and the two gentlemen composing the
committee were appointed to draw up
resolutions. to be presented to the
legislature by Judge Callahan next
Monday. This will be done tomorrow,
full power to act having been given.
A meeting of the local post of the
American Legion is to be held tonight
to consider the proposition and aid
from this source will be gained from
all points in Nevada. Special action
on the part of the Lovelock Chamber
of Commerce and Legion post are
also expected. 1t is not thought the
entire project would cost the gov
ernmept more than a million dollars.

DETAILS AT COUNTY
BOUNDARY CHANGES

Details of the bills presented in the
senate yesterday by Senator Sheehan
to change the boundary lines OF Hum
boldt. Lander and Pershing counties
were brought here this morning by
H. H. Sheldon. surveyor who prepared
the maps. data and two bills pre-
sented. he having been so employed
during the last two weeks at request
of Senator Sheehan. Sheldon also se-
cured petitions fayoring the change
from residents of Grass Valley, Buff
falo Valley and Pleasant Valley. the
districts affected.
The bills introduced provide that.
II passed. Buffalo Valley will be an
nexed to Lander county. while Grass
Valley and Pleasant Valley, south
of this city. will be given back to
Humboldt county. all of the acreage
now being in Pershing county. TO
Humboldt county would be given the
territory embraced by the Guthrie
ranch, Liotard's, Prida's. Siard's and
Cooper's ranches. including the town
of Kennedy.
The change would mean that line
be drawn south from Rose Greek,
twelve miles west of here, to the
Churchill county line, and property
east OF that line would be annexed
to Humboldt county with the excep-
tion of Buffalo Valley. which would
go to Lander county.
The change is desirable to prop
erty owners affected because Of loca-
ton of the county seats, residents
residing a few miles south of this
city now having to travel to Love-
lock to transact county business.
The bills were referred to the SEN
ate delegations from Humboldt. Lam
der and Pershing counties. Because
of loss In taxable area 1t Is expected
residents OF Pershing county will op-
pose the plan.

calculated to get results in the matter
of cleaning up fire menaces. for today

CHINATOWN AGAIN
RA|DED; PIPES TAKEN

Someone in Chinatown suffered a
loss OF three opium pipes again last
Thursday afternoon. when Sheriff
Brady, Constable Nelson and Federal
Agents H. Haley and C. R. Edison
started another search for dope.
One of the pipes confiscated is a
affair, constructed from a
piece of willow, apparently having
been made in a hurry. the emergency
perhaps having been after the recent
raid in which a large quantity Of
dope was taken. 1t is very crude In
construction, but had had some usage
This pipe was found wrapped and
concealed under a porch of one of
the houses. The other two. which
we're found on top of q screen window
In q back shed. These were also
carefully wrapped and are excellent
specimens.
No opium or other drugs were
found. though it is known there is
some available. A small amount of
yen shee was uncovered. but the rest
must be "burried Deep" No arrests
were made.

NIXON OPERA HOUSE
AWARDED TO MRS. NIXON

Winnemucca is to lose the Nixon
opera house unless a decision by
Judge McFadden of Ely Is set aside
in a higher court. McFadden having
decided that the widow Of the late
Senator Nixon. who presented the
$4,000 building to this city, and her
son, Bertham Nixon, are justly en-
titled to the building and ground. The
case has been before McFadden for
nearly three years and his decision
sets aside the deed Of Senator Nixon
giving the property to Winnemucca.
1t is probable the case will be taken
before the supreme court on appeal.

"Now is the time for all good men"

BIC IRRIGATION project
PROPOSED FOR SOLDIERS

Decision was reached by the Hum
boldt County Chamber of Commerce
last night to extend every effort to
reclaim nearly seven hundred thou
sand acres of land by an irrigation
project to store nearly seven thou
sand acre feet of water from the
Owyhee river. the irrigated land to
be settled by soldiers of the world
war.
That statement represents action
on probably the largest undertaking
ever started here and II taken to a
successful conclusion means wonder
full things for Nevada and this district
particularly.
The project was brought up at a
previous meeting of the Chamber and
Judge J. A. Callahan and Attorney
J. A. Langwith were appointed a COM
mittee to investigate possibilities.
Langwith spent days preparing an
application to appropriate the waters
of the Owyhee and the application
has been forwarded to Carson.
At the meeting last night Judge
Callahan acted as spokesman for the
committee and stated the facts set
forth above. He also said the project
would extend across the Paradise.
Eden and Humboldt valleys. He
pointed out what an enormous under
taking the project would be and was
highly in favor of making 1t SOL
diers' benefit prbpotition. He ex-
planned that 1t will be necessary to
prepare plans and surveys. to de-
termine how much land Is available
and how practical the plan is, before
the matter can be taken before con-

BOY SCOUTS BLOWOUT WAS
HIGHLY ENJOYABLE AFFAIR

All who were present at the Boy
Scouts high-jinks given at the high
school gym last night had a good time
and thoroughly enjoyed the games
and "eats." Many different stunts
were pulled off. including a tug of
war between fathers and Scouts, the
latter showing more strength; and a
game called swat the Kaiser" in
which both parents and Scouts par
ticipated. Several difficult stunts
we're tried and all present felt better
for laughing. An abundance of sand
wiches. pickles, cake and coffee was
efficiently served by Scouts. who saw
that no one went away hungry.

CIVIC CLUB TAKES
UP BUREAUS WORK

A special meeting Of the winne-
mucca Civic Club was called for Last
night at Parish hall for the purpose
of hearing Miss Margaret NJ. John,
son. state leader In home demonstra-
tion work. explain the purpose OF the
organization and to put the question
to the club. whether or not members
wished to adopt the work in con-
junction with the work Of the club,
or whether q separate branch should
be organized as q home-makers club.
Miss johnson first explained the
different branches of work or projects
which might be taken up, including
clothing and dress forms, millinery.
home nursing. library and reading
rooms. and sanitation. She cited diff
ferent communities which had taken
up different projects under the Farm
Bureau. Wells. for instance. estab.
lished a public library and reading
room last year under this organfka-
tion; Elko Ii adding . childrsn's II
brary as a branch of the public IL
brary which Is being organized under
auspices of the Twentieth Century
Club of that city; six places in Clark
and Lincoln counties have adopted
community sanitation, and other
places have taken up homo nursing
and building of children's play
grounds. even arranging monthly
parties for children who are too
small to enjoy the dances and enter
tainments given for grown people.
Miss johnson said that the bureau
does not advise the adoption Of more
than three projects by a community
to start with. as 1t Is well not to at
tempt too much at the beginning. but
does advise the establishment of a
definite goal to be reached and the
appointment of a project leader who
will see that the work is accom-
plished.
She explained the different ways
that the club could receive help from
the bureau, either by direct assistance
from county agent who will come
to community meetings or by cOrre-
spondence. There is no direct charge
in connection with this bureau. as all
expenses come out of the county
treasury. as required by law.
Following expressions Of different
members present. 1t was voted to
adopt this work in conjunction with
the work of the Civic Club and two
projects were decided upon--a public
library and public sanitation. with
the idea of taking up additional prof.
ects as soon as the members are
ready.
Miss Katherine Smith, district
leader in home demonstration work.
is expected to be present at the regu-
lar meeting of the club ON March Is
and will explain the millinery course
which may be adopted later ON, also
advising and giving all assistance
possible on other questions to be
brought up at that time.

that the ladies can think Of some
thing higher than cards" was one
that was frequently made during the
campaign to start the Winneuncca
Civic Club. When the subject was
broached time after time the reply
was "Oh. it isn't possible. as the la
dies of Winnemucca do not think Of
anything higher than cards." 1t
seemed to be stock remark and one
that was believed by many. so the
writer took it for granted that it
would be recognized as an old friend
(or enemy. Those who chose to keep
the thought before the public have
been surprised and panied to discover.
how untrue it was. and 1t is said that
they are due for some more shocks
In the near future. as the Winnie

joys a game where all the players are

Ailus.ons to the sculptures by Mrs.
Clare Sheridan which have recently
been brought to this country have been
concentrated good deal upon her
husts of Lenne and Trotzky. The con-
spicuity of those individuals has not
unnaturally made talk about their por-
traits. But this artists work needs no
adventitious aids in order to attract at
tcntion. 1t is highly interesting in
itself In the first place, it is full of
life. Mrs. Sheridan appears to have a
quick grasp upon character and the
ability to say what she has to say in
direct, energetic manner. She is capable
of certain bravura. as in her bust of
Zinoviev, but the picturesuueness of
that head is less effective than is the
quiet intensity of feeling which charac-
terizes most Of her bronzes. The busts
Of Marquis Casati and Admiral Sir Ru
dolf Bentinck are her finest achieve
ments, busts in which picturesqueness
is left to take care of itself and all the
artists ability is poured into subtleties
of expression. She shows some charm
ing statuettes, studies tingling with
human truth, like the portrait of H. G.
Wells, and one or two heads of = rather
romantic order. The polychromatic
"Mademoiselle X" is an unfortunate af-
fair, forced and unlovely. Mrs. Sheri-
dan is safest when she gives play to
nothing but 8 simple sincerity. This

Mr.. Ernest Lawson has ten new land
scapes at the Daniel gallery, interest
ing illustrations of very personal
and attractive method. 1t is method
which has suffered some changes in
recent years. There was q time when
Mr.. Lawson's surfaces had peculiar
charm. This has been modified. 1t is
dryer to-day than it once was--dryer
with diminution of beauty. But the
modification of his surfaces has not
affected this painters feeling for
nature disadvantageously. On the con-
trary, he has gained in force what he
has lost in sensuous quality. His
masses are more broadly handled. His
forms are more eloquently stated.
Note, for example, the tree forms in
the "Birch Woods" The group of
slender trunks is exquisitely synthe-
tized. There are a number Of good
pictures in the show, but head and
shoulders above all the rest is the
striking composition called mill in
Vermont" 1t is noble impression,
and it is particularly impressive in
design.
