but Mrs Gotwald was less for

she recovered from a severe
attack of paralysis, and the fall

back. She was considerably
bruised, and she lay in a state
of unconscionsness from the

PLOW DEEP.

1t is common among the farmers of this
State to plow shallow" which may do for
time, anC from the virgin soil produce
large crops, but we submit the question
whether this system of continuous growth
Of cereals on the same soil from year to
year will not soon "wear out" the land, so
that but partial crops can be produced
1t is not good for the farmer to say, ave
will work the soil in the manner in which
we can make the most, and when it is too
much worn, add to our possessions and use
them in the same way" We say, pillow
deep now and preserve the bearing quail
ties Of the land. 1t has been conclusively
shown that the crop failures in the most
southern portions Of the State were caused
by careless system of farming. This was
demonstrated in same parts of the San
Joaquin Valley, where the crops entirely
failed except on certain farms, and on these,
the crops were nearly up to the average,
despite the drought. And this was entire
ly owing to the fact that they had been
plowed deep. The great increase in pro-
ductiveness of land, and the preservation
fully tested this last season by Mr. Cilker,
near Los Gatos, in this county. His land
is heavy gravel, mix ed with loan and
clay-such soils, with ordinary culture,
would scarcely yield FIVE sacks of grain to
the acre. He ploughed deep before the
rains, and sowed the land to wheat, using
only thirty-6ve pounds of seed to the acre.
Notwithstanding the scarcity of rain, he
| harvested nineteen sacks of fine wheat to
the acre, while all the late sown grain in
the vicinity was total failure. This year
he is subjecting the same and some add-
tional land of like quality to similar pro-
cess, ploughing still deeper than last year.
Other farmers are initiating his example,
and We doubt not they will be well paid
for their labor.

1HE GREAT ROBBERY.-Reno, nov.
ember 5.-The Central Pacific passenge,
train bound east and due here at A. M.
arrived at Verdi, eleven. miles. west Of
Reno, on time. As the train was start
ing from that station three masked mer
boarded the Express car and five more i'm
mediately came to their aid from the real
cars. These five evidently came from the
west on the train. Six stopped on the
express car, which they detached from the
main train by cutting the signal escape
etc, and two jumped on the engine, piac
ing pistols at the engineers head and com
manded him to move on, which he did
The breakmen endeavored to keep the
masked men off of the express car, but
pistols were placed at their heads also and
they were compelled to retreat The con.
ductor rushed forward, but the pistols stop.
ped him. Finding a hatchet he came for.
ward just in time to see the engine and
express car flying down the track separat-
ed from the tain. The robbers then plac-
ed the fireman, express and mail messen-
gers in the mail room and locked them up.
When within six miles of this city they
stopped the train, opened the express boxes
and robbed them of SAL 900 in gold coin.
Later investigation shows that they put
the coin in old boot tops and escaped to
the mountains. A double barrelled shot
gun and pick were left by the robbers
at the quarry where they opened the boxes.
All the telegraph wires were cut west Of
Reno. Two of the Western Union wires,
which were cut, were repaired by daylight,
and business Was not delayed Parties are
searching the mountains and will probably
be able to throw more light on the robbery
in few days.

ambitious hopes would be realized.
His superior officers seemed to look
upon him with considerable leuiency, and
gave him many fair opportunity to gather
maritime knowledge; and in a year the
handsome, gentlemanly young mate had
acquired unusual favor in the eyes of the
portly commander, Capt Hume, who had
FIRST taken the smart little black-eyed fel-
low, with his neat tarpauIin and tidy
bundle as the cabin boy
One light the young man with all the
other officers, was invited to an entertain
ment at the captains house. He went,
and to his astonishment, mounted the in
IDENTICAL steps that, two years before the
brightest vision he had ever seen. passed,
over-a vision be had never forgotten
Thump, thump, went his brave heart as
he was ushered into the parlor, and like a
sledge hammer it beat again when Captain
Hume brought forth his black. eyed daugh-
ter, and with pleasant smile said, ''The
young lady was once indebted to your
kindness for safe and dry walk home.
His eyes were all ablaze, his brown cheeks

And in all that assembly was not SO hand
some couple as the gallant soilor and the
'pretty ladie."
1t was not year from that time that
second mate trod the quarter second
only in command, and part owner with the
captain, not only in his vessel, but in the
affections of his daughter, gentle Grace
Hume, who had always cherished respect,
to say nothing of love, for the bright-eyed
sailor.
His homely but earnest act of politeness
toward his child had pleased the captain,
and though the youth knew it not, was
the cause of his first promotion; SO that
now the old man has retired from business,
Harry Wells is captain, Grace Hume is,
according to polite parlance, "Mrs Cap
tain Wells" In fact the honest sailor is
one of the richest men in the Crescent
City, and he ownes, perhaps, the greater
part of his prosperity to his tact and polite
ness in crossing the street.
