Bart; After months of searching through government files in Washington and historical documents ln Nevada, Nevada Sagebrush chapter. Daughters of the American Revolution, have secured an excellent lithograph of old Fort Churchill, showing how the old fort looked when It was at the height of Its glory and activity. Through an editorial published in the Gazette on July 4, Mrs. B. R.

Ad-denbrooke, who has directed the search for the Fort Churchill picture, met success this week when Mrs. L. H. Whlttey of Pyramid Station on Pyramid lake, sent the lithograph to Reno by her son. Mrs.

Whittey's father, CY" H. Sym-onds, was engaged in hauling ore in Dayton in 1860, and resided ln that vicinity for some time. Later he moved to California, but In 1880 returned to Nevada with his family and lived at Pyramid Station. He secured the lithograph of the fort during the time he resided in Dayton and it was stored ln a trunk. Mrs.

Whlttey unearthed It a few days ago, after she read that the Daughters -of the American Revolution were anxious to secure one. It Is possible that the old fort will be restored as a federal project because of Its historical importance. A. J. Deiringer, C.

Work ln numerous transient relief service camps throughout the state is progressing rapidly and numerous projects are either rapidly nearlng completion or are well under way, it was announced today by Director C. L. Fleming of the Reno transient relief service. Fifty men are encamped this week on a meadow at the foot of Mt.

Rose and today started construction of the four and one-half mile stretch from the Mt. Rose road to the summit of the mountain. Mess halls were completed yesterday. Earl Warren of Reno is in charge of the camp. While most of the work on the road Is to be done by hand a tractor and blade will be taken to the camp next week.

Construction will be carried on over a period of two months before the road Is completed. The big permanent camp at Thomas creek is being made ready to accommodate between 250 and 350 men during the winter. The crew of twenty-five men now at the camp will be swelled to fifty by the end of the week, Fleming says. The men are building a mess hall and are clearing ground to accommodate as many as seventy-five tents. One of the important projects being carried on in the mountain country Is the building of a fire trail from Hunter creek through Thomas creek and across the Mt.

Rose highway to terminate seven miles below the Galena road. The new stretch will provide a fire trail eighteen miles in length. Fifty men are rapidly completing work on the road to Hunter lake and are within two miles of the lake now. Completion of the work is expected ln two weeks. Progress Is reported on work ln other camps, Fleming says.

Workers at Ardery Point are carrying on beetle and fire control work, Verdi and Kingston Canyon camps are accommodating numerous men and there are several drought relief camps in the state being worked by local men. An increase rather than decrease ln the number of transients passing through the 6tate this year Is noted on the records of the transient relief depot, Fleming says. The Increase Is approximately forty per cent and the local depot is handling an average of four thousand men each month. most $TYLBS SOME tnam STYLES 00J and Lopez. At PHILADELPHIA R.

Mayor Frank took, no part in the activities. He was a spectator and when Chairman Knox Invited him to take the gavel the mayor declined. Just at that moment Councilman Justl was endeavoring to have the council revoke the gambling license issued to Woo Sing at 223 Lake street for a "keno" game, and Frank said "We got rid of that Chinese gambling controversy once, so count me out for the time being." 1 Justl declared Woo Sing was oper atlng a Chinese lottery. He asked City Attorney Pike to define Chinese lottery, Chinese keno and keno. Pike did but declared he did not know what kind of a game Woo Sing was running.

Justl said he knew it was Just Chinese lottery barred by Nevada laws. No one would second Justl's motion to revoke the license. Then, to make it Interesting, Woo Sing applied for a license to operate a stud poker game and a crap game. Justl voted no while Knox, Ross and Nelson voted yes. Peterson was absent.

Ordinances amending existing ordinances that were offered for first reading and will come up for final action later Included: Tightening the restrictions for storing gasoline, oil and other highly Inflammable materials. Directing property owners to repair worn sidewalks In front of their property. Proposing license fees for wrestling ami boxing matches. Proposing license fees for public dances. The chief of police was Instructed to assign an officer to Tony's dance hall on Commercial Row from 11:00 p.

m. until 2:00 a. m. each night a dance is held there.

The city engineer was also given permission to have a city truck repaired and was Instructed to secure three or more bids from responsible automobile repair men for the work. x.
