' Do you know of a Mrs. McNa mara soliciting and collecting mon ey in Tonopah for Crittenden home of Nevada; if so warn the public as she has no authority to collect money or get subscriptions. She la not turning the money over to home. M. R. WALKER, President of Crittenden Home The above message was received here Sunday and yesterday it was learned that Mrs. McNamara had been canvassing Tonopah since Mon day, soliciting funds for the Crit tenden home for girls, located at Reno. When asked concerning her right to represent this Institution Mrs. McNamara announced that she had a perfect right to do so and that every cent collected would be turned over to the controlling board of the home. "Dr. Walker attempted the same practice," said Mrs. McNamara, "when I was canvassing Elko and Ely. He is angry because I will not turn all funds that I collect over to him. Instead I will give the money to the controlling board so that it will be expended in a wise manner. "I have been engaged with the Crittenden home for. four years and have never met with anything like the treatment afforded me by Dr. Walker during my experience. This is my chosen work and I was com manded by God to go forth and aid unfortunate girls. If such a thing happened to a missionary in a for eign field the troops would be rushed immediately to their assist ance." Mrs. McNamara was unable to produce her credentials authorizing her to solicit for the Crittenden people and stated that she had left them with Attorney McKay at Ely, who is representing her. She showed certificates of deposit on an Ely bank for $205 and also a cer tificate on a local bank for $54. These, she said, she woold endorse over to the controlling board and had no intention of keeping the money for her own use. Just what the exact status of the matter is, the Bonanza is un able to state. It would appear, SMALL FIRE CALLS however, that if the lady intended DEPARTMENT OUT to turn the subscriptions collected Fire from an unknown cause at Ely over to the home, she should summoned the department yesterday have done so at Reno on her re-1 afternoon to the old Edwards home turn from the eastern part of the.on gouth street, near the site where PIONEER PASSES AWAY YES TERDAY AT MINERS' HOS PITAL.

It would appear that if she had no right to take sub scriptions that the officers of the home would take legal steps to prevent her doing so, but from the information at hand, no action of this sort hr.3 been taken. Mrs. McNamara says she will prosecute President Walker of the home If he continues to persecute her and that she goes to Goldfleld Thursday to continue her work that God has sent her forth to accom plish.

The conflagration was in the attic and was easily extinguished with a slight loss. Nye county's honorable board cf county t commissioners met yestei- day at the regular monthly session but transacted very little business during the day. In the morning the board was requested to meet with the grand jury, which was done and the entire forenoon was spent in this manner. Just wuat .ras discussed could not be learned. The afternoon was consumed in going over the regular routine ivisi- ness and looking after minor af fairs. None of the county or town bills were taken up, but this ;jait will be under consideration eiUie today or-tomorrow. It was known that the kivi.,1 jury desired to confer with the fvr-i- missioners before the inquisitoJi.il body made a report, which now will probably be forthcoming some time this week.

The local boys are putting up a good brand of the national game and a couple more games should see them in cendition to give any team in the Etate a good, run for the hon ors. It looked as though Tonopah was doomed in the first inning when Prout was found for three hits in a bunch which netted the visitors only one run. With a man on second and one on third Eddie put on a little more steam and struck out the next two men up. ' In the second the timber boys, by a bit of maneuvering succeeded in bringing in one more run with only one hit to their, credit. In the last half of the second the first man up for Tonopah was Agnew who beat out a bunt very cleverly, made the second cushion on a steal and scored on Prouts hit. The next two men up proved easy for the visitors and retired Tonopah with the score 2 to 1. v In the third Manhattan failed to score, while Tonopah, with one man down secured threee passes in suc cession. With the bases full and lonly one out and every one with their eyes on the batter a signal was given for Sietz ' to go to sleep on the initial sack. This he prompt ly did and drew a throw from Herd. Seitz was put out between first and second, but on the put out Hatton scored, making it 2 and 2. In the fourth, fifth and sixth the timbertossers failed to get a man further than second, while the Tonopah boys slipped one over In the fourth and two in the fifth n a double by ' Peck, a single by Seitz,- a fielder's choice. In the fatal seventh the fireworks started for Tonopah. Three errors in suc cession by Tresize netted Manhat tan as many runs and it looked pretty bad for the local boys when their were Bhut out in their half. The visitors brought in another run n the eighth on a lone hit. With the score 6 to 5 . against them at the beginning of the last of the ninth Tonopah decided to do or die. O'Hara, first up, proved an feasy out to third. Hatton next made the initial sack on the second baseman's error. Peck gets to first on Herd's error and Hatton advances to second. Both men ad- ance on Quillici's sacrifice. Agnew broke up the game by coming to bat and slipping in a nice little bingle oyer second which scored Hatton and Peck, making the score 7 to 6 in favor of Tonopah. From the spectators' point of view It was an Interesting game, but with a little more practice the home team could show a great improve ment as their work was ragged at critical times.
