ago Burgomaster Fred Ent, Postmaster
and Consul at Franktown, discovered
a nmber Of wild geese lowering about
Washoe lake, aud reposing on the
placid waters Of said lake. Ent wanted
those geese but had no water craft In
condition to put to sea. He studied
Owe the matter for two days, and
finally ia conjunction with an elderly
gentleman by the name of. B. Mason,
the crafty postmaster entered into a
conspiracy to get those geese drunk
and capture them while ashore. Ac-
cordingly Emit went to work and
boiled two quarts Of corn until 1t
was thoroughly softened and then
soaked it for Two days In whlskey,
after which they scattered the corn
over a small field on Perkins ranch.
The geese never dreamed for a mo-
ment, that a job had been put up on
them went e to the ranch, devoured
the corn and got glorlou,ly drunk.
Maurice May, who was stopping at
Ent's house made an attack on the
inebriated geese and slew five Of them
with q club. All Of the ranchers In
the valley are down on Ent for even
countenancing such nefarious shemes.
FoUSD.-John Fsrnham, the lovely
and robust blonde proprietor Of tho
Gold Hill Bank Exchange, was n Of
those who went from here to the re-
cent great race at San Francisco. He
took away considerable money with
| him and bet 1t all on Thad Stevens,
| consequently he won numerous green
back from the downeasters. Then this
frail and fair blonde fell into evil ways
wasting his substance In riotous living,
until nc length he was reduced to the
necessity Of feeding upon the husks Of
| shrimps which fell from the numerous
free lunch tables Of that ungodly city.
| How he got home. no man knoweth ;
neither hath any fatted calf been mas
sacred and served up by way OF public
reception. He was found In his saloon
a day or or two since, sitting on the
stool Of repentance, and he now tries
to make everybody believe that he has
never been away at all.
