SENSATION has been given the people of
Sutro. By way of an offset to the usual stock
excitement it has been slightly varied:
Mrs T. w. Thompson, OF Sutro, has enterC d
suit for divorce from her husband, 7. W.
Thompson, who IS better known as % Long
Thompson. 1t appears that, some time ago,
Mrs Thompson purchased some mining stocks
which have since increased in value until they
are now worth between $40, 600 and $12, 900.
Her husband has claimed half interest in
the stocks all along, but she has always re-
fused to recognize his claim. This gave rise
to frequent quarrels, and finally, one day last
week, Thompson, it is alleged, placed pistol
to his wife's head and threatened to shoot her
unless she produced the stocks.
''Shoot away she replied "but if you do
you will be hung for it, and my daughters will
get my property"
Thompson thereupon left the house, and
Mrs. Thompson hid herself in the cellar, where
she remained two days. In the meantime, and
unknown to Thompson, she managed to send
Geographic dispatch TO MI Walker, her
son-in-low, at Vallejo, California. The reply
came
''Mysalf and wife Will be at Sutro to-mor-
row.
The daughter and son-in- law arrived in due
time, whereupon Mrs. Thompson emerged
from her place of conceament, and Thompson
fed the town Acting upon her childrens adj
vice Mrs. Thompson theceup0n applied for
divorce, Stone ~ HiIes conducting her case.

AN AURIFERoUs METEOR "A remarkable
specimen of meteoric iron, more like steel,
has been brought in here from the Mohaye
desert. 1t weighs about pound, and carries
free gold, of which nearly dollar appears ca
the surface 1t is not magnetic, and has
successfully resisted simple and compound
baths of acid. In this respect it resembles
specular iron, but in no other. One of its
surfaces shows fracture that reveals crys
taline structure, the color of which is a steel
gray tinged with yellow. 1t has defed the
best coal chisel in the blacksmith shop, and
has not broken or Clipped under heavy blows.
If its composition can be initiated, there will
be produced the hardest and toughest alloy
known. - Yuma Sentinel.

A New Use FOR MIRRORS An engineer
on the New York Central and Hudson River
Railroad, who runs locomotive between this
city and New York, has introduced a new
feature by placing looking glasses outside on
the engine, at an angle from The cab. These
enable him to see the rear part of the train
at all times without putting his head out to
watch for the conductors signals when max
ing up trains. The custom of using such
glasses in private residences has been IN vogue
for sometime Two glasses are placed on a
windowsill and so arranged that a person sit
ting in room watch all passersby from
either direction on the street, or in case any
one calls and rings the door bell while madam
happens to be en- dishabille, all that is neces-
sary is to give the glass turn, and the caller
is readily dlscernable, Troy Times.

yellow JACKETS are thus described by the
Truckee Republican;
The mountains are full of yellow jackets
this summer They sting the horses and cat
tie till the poor animals become fhriously des-
perate. They gather about person in the
woods, as would a swarm OF mosquitoes. If
you let them crawl over you and bite pieces
of flesh out of your hands and neck without
attempting to brush them off, they will not
sting you. The average human being, how
ever, feels irrisstibly inclined to brush them
off, and so gets numerically stung. Trout
fishing has some days been uncomfortable, be
cause myriad of yellow jackets would
cluster around the fisherman, and for every
nibble received from the trout they would
give him a dozen bites. Woodsmen or rail
road men who have happened upon nests,
have been stung so bad that i'll instances they
were unable to work for a day or two. The
butchers are compelled to feed these pretty
flies with refuse meat in a certain portion of
the shop, in order to keep them from covering
the cutting blocks. There are hundreds and
thousands and millions of them everywhere
in the mountains around Truckee. They
effectualv kill off the flies 1t is rare sport
to watch their mareuvers when catching flies.
They swoop down upon their victim as hawk
does upon his prey. Their aim is generally
unerring, and the fly is carried off to the yell
low Jackets nest 1t is said to be an old and
true saying among backwoodsmen, that the
more yellow Jackets there are, the harder
will be the winter. This being true, the COM
ing winter will be about five thousand times
more severe than any of its predecessors
Thermometer will be entirely inadequate to
mark the, cold, and SnoW-plow men will not
