THE "GREAT ANNExATIONIsT"

His Attempts to Extend the Boun.
daries Of Lyon Coanty-What
May be Expected Soon.
The reference to Hon. Hugh Car
ling, in the TIMES of last Wednes-
day, has reminded some of the resi-
dents of this city Of his course in
the Legislature, four years ago. Mr..
CARING was bound to make . good
record for himself. To this end he
advocated two or three schemes
which had at least the merit of bold.
ness Of conception. One of these
was the dismemberment of Churchill
county and the annexation of tho
bulk Of the dismembered territory
to Lyon county. Failing in this, he
tried to have an extent Of fifteen
square miles of fine agricultural
land in Mason Valley cut off from
Esmeralda county. He also failed
In this, and turned his attention to
Douglas county, which, he contend
cd, included within her limits some
coal lands which properly belonged
to this county. But by that time the
whole Assembly was alarmed at the
antics of the s"Great Annexationist,"
40 he was called, and a motion to
table the aforementioned measure was
carried without q dissenting voice,
the move having been made while
Mr.. CARING was absent. This proved
q death blow to his annexation pro.
cliyities TOR that session. But, ever
since, when a candidate for the
Legislature has been placed in nomi-
nation in this county, Mr.. CARING
has made diligent inquiries into the
nominees views on the subject of an.
nexation. And the result OF these
inquiries has invariably been a warm
support of such candidates ae favor.
cd the territorial sggrandizement Of
the county. That is, provided the
candidates were of the Republican
faith; for Mr.. CARING is an uucom-
promising Republican. Now that be
has announced his determination to
90 to Bodis to look about for a favor
able place on which to locate, the
people of this State may soon ex-
pee. to hear of q scheme to annex a
part of California to Nevada.

THE BEGINNING OF THE END.
The Flooded Mines to be Drained
SOon-Where the Next Bonanza
Will Probably Be Found.

The lightning drift" through
which it is intended to send the wa
ter from the flooded Savage and Hale
& Norcross mines to the sutro Tun-
mel, was connected with the Savage
Norcross- Chollar Combination Shaft
at o'clock last Thursday morning.
The shaft being already connected
by drift with the Sutro tunnel, the
latter will probably soon be made
ready to receive the hot water Of the
flooded mines, although the perma-
nent drain below the track floor OF
the tunnel vii! not be completed
for some months. As soon % the
lower levels of the Savage and Hale
4 Norcross mines are drained, a va
luable ore-developmsnt will doubt
less be made at the 5000 or 500.
level, at some points between the Saw
age and Hale b Norcross shafts. The
Hale B Norcross 10 expected to contain
the bulk Of this new bonanza.

BAKED PORK AND BEANS.
How This Favorite Dish is Pre-.
pared In the Backw0ods Of Min.
.AoAAA

nesOta.
"The Pacific Coast Pioneers. in
deed I'll tell you the ONLY way to
bake pork and beans" exclaimed
Doc. Rogan last Thursday, to knot
of men in the Postoffice, some Of
whom had just expressed prefer
ence for that Yankee dish. "When l
lived in the lumber regions of Mime
sofa, l cooked for gang of over a
hundred. Wood was plenty, and
cost nothing, so, every morning I'd
sdig trench about two foot wide, six
long, and two deep. I'd fill that up
with dry leaves topped with logs of
wood, and keep 'er a-blazin' oil day.
Toward night-fall the ground would
be steamin' hot for yards from
the trench, although it was in the
midst Of Winter. I'd then take
every bit OF ashes and cinders out,
and put my bean.pot fiat on the bot
tom OF the trench, leaving about six
inches between them. Then I'd pour
10 cold water until the pot was about
two-thirds full, and put in a few
spoonfuls Of molasses-just enough
to sweeten the water little, After
that, l covered the trench, throwing
the live Goals between the pots and
topping the whole with the earth re-
moved while digging the trsnch-and
let 'em lay there till morning.
When We got up in the morning
we'd turn to and dig up the beans.
Aud if you fellows think they were
not as delicious as il is possible for
baked beans to I've, why, you're mis-
taken, that's ALL"
