Various Kinds Of Ice.

Experiments have shown that water
can be made to solidify into five diff
ferent kinds of zee, each of which al
certain temperatures and pressures
changes from II into another with
explosive violence. one kind, "ice-2,"
requires a very low temperature and
great pressure to keep it from explod'
ing into ordinary ice Another kind
will stay frozen at summer heat, pro
vided it is kept under a pressure OF
10000 atmospheres. In nature such
great pressures exist only in company
with very high temperatures, and it Is,
entirely possible that some Of these
kinds of Ice never existed until they
were created in the experimenters' n.y.

BATTTESHP NEVADA IN ELY
TWO DAYS IN MOVING PICTURE

The battleship Nevada in move
ment, one of the d~readnaughts of the
American navy. is to be II Of the
big features of the Ely Fourth OF
July celebration. 1t has been ar
ranged for by Governor James G.
Scrugham and will be thrown On the
screen al the Ely theater for two
nights.
The governor was present at the
geles, where the great manowar took
the leading part at the San Pedro
offing and the governor delivered a
notable address there. This placed
him in position to get the film that
was taken when the warship was
photographed in maneuvering espe-
cially for the purpose. The timely
action of H. w. Edwards, chairman
of the program and sports commit
tee, in inviting the governor to de
liver the Grafton in Ely on the
Fourth acted as a natural reminder
10 Mr.. Scrugham that to show the
picture here on that occasion was the
appropriate thing.
Following is a letter from the gov
ernor to Mr.. Edwards, written at
the Paramount hotel, San Francisco,
giving the particulars:
San Francisco, June 81, 1929
II. w. Edwards, Ely, New: Dear
ENTHUSIASTICALLY while in Los
Angeles Mr.. Thomas H. Incc, the
motion picture producer. had a film
made of the battleship Nevada,
which is of a patriotic nature. Mr..
Ince presented the film to the state
and it occurs to me that it WOULD
be appropriate to show it in the
motion picture thcater of Ely on
July 3 and 4. 1t requires about ten
minutes to run and there is no
charge whatever to the theater for
the added attraction If you can
arrange with the Ely theatcr to
run the picture I will bring it out
with me when I arrive July 3.
i. G. SCRUGHAM.
The governor is coming by auto
mobile by way of Tonopah and
will be here for three days, leaving
probably the morning Of July 6.

on His Nebraska Visit

Win Fulmer suffered a broken rib
a few days ago at Schuyler, Neb., or
somewhere enroute east, according to
a message received Wednesday by
Mrs. Fulmer in East Ely. How it
happened was not told, but it may
have been riding a bucking broncho
at his brothers. ranch near Schuyler.
Win was on his way to Leaven-
worth, Kas., with his brother, United
States Marshal Jake Fulmer, who
was taking some prisoners to the

FTREWORKS co.
MAKES HUNDRED
DOLLAR MISTAKE
1t was only a mistake.

When Gilbert F. Boreman, as
Fourth of July committee of one
on fireworks, on a total %appropria-
ton of $500 sent off an order for
$240 worth of pyrotechnics, he Sc
lected the items from the catalogue
of a house with which he had done
business before, and with the or
der he included a remittance o.
500. When the shipment arrived
by express there was a $261.50 c.
o. D. on it, with $25 more for ex-
press charges.
This was a reminder of war days,
when it was the rule rather than
the exception for houses doing va
rious forms of mail order business
to accept cash payments and jump
prices up 80 to so per cent in just
that fashion, and it looked like
Ely had been hooked in the self
same style.
Mr.. Foreman rushed off a tele-
gram, but meanwhile the C. o. d.
was taken UP on a finance commit
tee check for $296.50. Ir the
meantime a meeting was held and
some free fireworks were let off In
condemnation OF such an unpatri.
otto maker of things patriotic. After
all of this stuff had been uncorked
in public and private a reply to the
message came, saying the shippe,
had omitted giving credit for the
500.
Instead Of one of those war-day
messages that the price has gon,
up and We've received YOU
money and spent it," the s1Oc i.

Undue Scruputousness.

Tenderness of conscience is always
to be distinguished from scrupulous-
ness. The conscience cannot be kept
too sensitive and tender; but scrupu-
lousness arises from bodily or mental
infrmity, and discovers itself in a null
titude Of ridiculous, superstitions, and
painful feelings.--Cecil.
