PASSED AWAY TUESDAY

W. F. Boyken, Gold Circle resi-
dent, died in his cabin some time
Tuesday night, according to word
received in this city from neigh
bors who discovered the body.
It is assumed that death was from

coroner's jury. Mr.. Boyken was
about Tuesday evening and seemed
to be in his usual good health.
He was a resident of Midas for
about six years, first coming to Ne
vada about 1907 to follow civil
engineering in connection with min
ing enterprises. He lived for some
time at Jarbridge, later going to
work for the Southern Pacific as
civil engineer, and then to Midas,
where he was connected with
George j. Shoup in mining develop
ment.
Mr.. Boyken is survived by a num-
Der of relatives residing in and
around San Francisco.
No arrangements have been made
for the funeral, but is it thought
that the body will be shipped to
San Francisco.

stupenduous tax on ranchers. Judg-
ing by the replies to my questions
in New Jersey it will be hard sled
ding for those in debt. Old tools
and implements will have to be re-
paired instead of getting up-to-date
labor saving devices. Houses will
be more meagerly furnished and
old furniture made to do. Clothing
worn threadbare until the children
are ashamed. Musical instruments
and literature will be scarcer and
worst of all children will be kept at
home to work when they should be
in school getting an education. One
Of the great aims of the Farm Blu
reau is to make life on the ranch
pleasant and attractive to the young
people to keep them there. This
work will be nullified and the young
people will leave the life of drudg-
cry to pay taxes, and gravitate to
the cities where their labor will
bring them more pleasures.

SPARKS GIRLS DEFEATED
WHILE HOME BOYS LOSE


The Winnemucca boys and girls
of the high school met the teams
from Sparks on the local basket
ball floor last Friday evening to
meet victory and defeat. The first
game between the girls teams was
a very easy contest for the local
girls, who took the lead in the first
two minutes of the game and kept
increasing it until the end Of the
game.
The Sparks girls, who made up q
clean lady-like team, showed lack
of experience and team work which
can only be developed by constant
practice and experience.
The Sparks side center was about
half of the team and with the VIM
nemucca girls playing guarding
game only in the center she did
not have much Of a chance to
shine.
The boys game was rather a slow
affair, marred by frequent fouls on
both sides, the Sparks boys proving
too heavy and experienced for the
local boys. who despite the fact
that they played a much faster
game then their opponents, were
unable to prevent the Sparks shoot
ers from scoring when under the
baskets.
Practice has been resumed by
both teams and from now until the
tournament the plays to be used
during that time will be worked
out and practiced on diligently.
The scores for the games Friday
night were: Girls, Winnemucca,
81, Sparks, 10; boys, Sparks, 20,

BRIEF MENTION

John w. Davis, president of the
American Bar Association said at
the association banquet in st. Louis,
individual liberty is being beaten
down, and the right of man to
govern himself is being defeated by
the threatening enroachment of the
constitution of code of statutes to
control the habits and morals of
Americans He believes there is
too much law and tendency to
ignore mandates of the constitution.
A mysterious being called the state
should not be set up to the ADAM
donment of the spirit of individual
liberty.
The Hohenzollern, formerly the
palatial pleasure yatch of the Ger
man emperor, is being fitted out as
4 trade ship by the German govern
ment. The vessel will be sent on a
cruise to the British dominions.
Stands, displaying German goods,
now occupy the former elegantly
appointed cabins of the yatch, the
beautiful rose pink furnishings hav-
ing been torn out to make room for
the stands.
Fishing through the ice with gold
fish as decoys is increasing in popu-
larity among sportsmen. The
anglers place a net over the gold
fish globe and lower the globe into
the water through a hole in the
Ice. The gold fish act as a lure
to the pike who coming rushing
to the attack. The pike are speared

WAR AGAINST NARCOTICS

President Harding Is getting
splendid support in his war against
the traffic in narcotics. From all
over the nation he has received
words Of encouragement and from
other nations the responses are
said to be gratifying.
1t Is evidenced that the blows
struck against this evil to be effec-
tive, must be international. F. r.
Eldridge, chief of the Far Eastern
division Of the department of COM
merce, says that an international
agreement, permitting the right of
search, seizure and confiscation of
drugs found illegitimately on ship
board in the same manner that in
ternational law sanctions seizure
and confiscation Of contrabrand of
war is the only effective way to
throttle the notorious traffic.
That may be difficult to obtain.
No nation likes to have its ships
searched. II it were liquor no ma
ton would consent. But there is
not the same feeling with regard to
narcotics. Every civilized nation re-
most Of them signed convention at
The Hague undertaking to pass such
laws as would limit the use of drugs
to legitimate medical purposes.
Since then most of them have
passed such laws and they are ready
to take such additional steps as will
make the prohibition worldwide.
President Harding and the mem
bers of his cabinet are working hard
upon his proposition and will doubt
less receive the hearty support of
the people, through congress.-Gold-
field Tribune.
