MARATHON RACE
WILL BE RUN ON
FEBRUARY 14TI1
That the Bonanza's Marathon race
will be run on Sunday, February 14,
Is now an assured fact, and more
names are being added to the list of
prospective champions. One thing
must be distinctly understood by
those who desire to engage in this
contest, and that is no "champs" will
"be allowed to participate. The event
Is only for amateurs, and especially
young men, and was gotten up for
the sake of the athletic-loving people
of this ' city. The handsome cup
which will be tendered the winner.
was received from the engraver s
hands yesterday and is now on ex
hibltion in the oluce of the Marathon
Race Editor, where those who desire
to call and inspect the handsome
work of art are at liberty to do so.
The third entry for the contest was
received early yesterday morning. In
fact the entry blank was shoved un
der the door of the M. R. E.'s room
while he slept. It was from Jim
McQuillan, who signed himself the
champion of Candaleria and Soda
vllle. Talk about conceit. We don't
know what Jim's purpose is, but sup
pose he Is trying to bluff the young
er racers from taking part. It is true
that Jim was the champion of Soda
ville In the old days when that camp
was In its prime.. The long distance
races then were not called Marathon
races. Everything was sitnply a race,
even if it was from 100 yards to 100
miles. The time that Jim won the
championship is a part of the history
of Sodavllle Itself. Jim had beat
everything in sight and as a last re

TO SAVE
$100 Every Month
Though January has passed annual statements of foreign corpora
tions can be' published and filed in February (leaving a possible fine of
$10 for January only.) Foreign corporations that fail to comply with
the requirements of the statutes are subject to a flue of f 100 for EACH
MONTH in which they ore delinquent. Those who have not published
their statements are reminded . that any District Attorney may claim the
fine by Instituting suit against the offending corporation. If the report
is not advertised and filed during the month of February, the company
becomes subject to a fine of another hundred dollars, and so on for
every month in which it is delinquent. Here is the law on the subject,
which will repay careful study:
r-
Chapter CVIII.
foreign corporations doing business
in the state of Nevada to publish an
naul statements. . Approved March
28, 1901.
Section 1. All foreign corpora
tions doing business in the state of
Nevada, shall, during the month of
May this year, 1901, and in each
succeeding year in the month of Jan
uary, publish a statement of their
last years' business in some dally
newspaper in the state of Nevada for
the period of one week.
Sec. 2. The secretary of the com
pany publishing the statement shall
file a copy with the several assessors
of the state of Nevada.
Sec. 3. Any corporation coming
within the provisions of thi sact Who
shall neglect or refuse to file a state
ment as required by section 1 of this
act shall be liable to a penalty of
$100 for each month that the pub
lished statement remains unfiled
with the several ' assessors of the
state, .
t
Sec. 4. Any district attorney in
the state is competent to sue to re
cover this penalty, or the attorney
general. The first county suing
'through its district attorney shall se
cure the penalty.
It will thus Im Nwn that there is a suit liability attaching, to a fail
are to file throe ivportK. The Bonanza furniMhes forms to comply with
the above law for advertising purpose and attends to filing same with the
fourteen assoJor of tlie state. Thoi intrrenteil are Invited to correspond
with this office at on e.
sort sent a challenge to Benny
Rosenthal at Hawthorne. The terms
of the contest was that each was to
start frpm bis home town and finish
at Luning, Which Is; twenty-five miles
distant from both places. The 6tart
was made on a morning of a Fourth
of July amidst a crowd of several
hundred Indians, who bad gathered
to witness the great feat of McQuil
lan's. The telegraph operators at
Sodavllle and Hawthorne started the
racers promptly at 9 o'clock in the
morning. At 9:15 a freight train
left Sodavllle and a few minutes
later a handcar left Hawthorne.
When the freight reached Luning
Jim crawled from under one of the
flat cars just in time to see Benny
come driving up on the handcar. Of
course each accused the other of
cheating and as Jim was the largest
he won. Hence his title, "Champion
of Sodavilie."
The second entry yesterday was
that of County Commissioner W. T,
Cuddy. Cuddy also hasareputation
that is for foot racing. He was go-
in gto run a race last summer with
Judge Brissell and even ordered a
pair of racing tights for the' affair.
But the day the race was to be run
itrained and the affair was postpon
ed until the following Sunday. When
that date arrived the county commis
sioner developed a pair of kidneys in
his feet and couldn't even walk. He
also says he used to show some class
when he lived at Silver City, Nevada.
In fact he says he beat every Indian
in that neighborhood that is beat
them racing. Mr. Cuddy also made
a good run in the last political cam
paign and on account of this thinks
he should be allowed to participate
in the. Marathon race. As he en
closed a 5 check for his cartoon he
will be in the start and will be des
ignated among the bunch by a "No
5," which will be pinned on his back

Klondyke We
While engaged in oiling the gaso
line-engine, at the pump station at
Klondyke Wells yesterday morning,
T. , Lewis received injuries which
caused his death an hour later.
Lewis had only been at the sta
tion a few days, and was engaged in
his customary duties when his jump
er caught in the friction wheel and
he was revolved through the air
about twenty times until his weight
caused the machinery to stop. His
cries attracted several men of the
section gang who live there, and
they immediately released him from
the wheel and made him as com
fortable as possible. In the mean
time a dispatch was sent to A. J.
Chambers, roadmaster of the Tono
pah and Goldfield railroad, who was
in Goldfield, and he immediately left
for the scene with Dr. Dunham of
that city. Lewis was placed on a
freight train,, but the return journey
to Goldfield had harly commenced
before he passed away. An exami
nation showed that both of his legs
were broken, all the ribs on the left
side fractured and besides receiving
several other bruises, he was injured
internally,
