Chasing q Panther for Four Miles.

Will Hunter and Lucine Edwards
sent a panther's paw into town last
week that was as large AS a pie plate.
The animal killed sheep and they
went on its track with dogs, but only
one dog stayed with it. They chased
him q mile before freeing, finding
where he, had, killed q spike buck.
As they came up he jumped out of II
tree, ran q few hundred yards and
freed again. This he repeated for
about four miles, being shot at as he
ran until ell their cartridges but one
were gone. With this one they broke
his back and then finished him with
clubs. He was very fat and meas
ured nine feet from tip to tip-nose
to tail. N. E. Hoax, of Comptche,
once killed one that measured eleven
feet. He shot him In the high grass
and when he approached the brute
he supposed him dead and kicked
him in the head. The panther sprang
to his feet and rushed upon him with
open mouth. His dog seized the
panther's hind leg and checked him
significantly to give Hoax time to
thrust his gun into his mouth and
blow the top of his head off. His
hide was spotted like leopard's and
old hunters set his weight at two
hundred aud fifty pounds.-Ukiah

ALUCKY COMPANY.

The receipts Of the Virginia and
Truckee Railroad Company during
1879 were $1,3ss,2oO rs, the expen-
ses were $s35,5O9 Os-leaving a
profit of about s550,e00. This, &C.
cording to the railroad company's
figures, is profit of over eleven
per cent. on the cost of the road.
The past year has been disastrous
one to the majority of Nevadans
and the railroad company may there
fore be considered as having met
with great good luck in earning
even the comparatively low amount
stated.

Senator Hoar called the convention to order
ut 11:45. Ho requested all others than Nom.
bers of the convention to Withdraw from tha,
part of the ball assigned to delegates, aud di.
rected tho sergcant-atarms to enforce the re.
quest. The aises were cleared after some de.
lay. Rov. f. A. Noble, of Union Park Con.
gregational church, Chicago, offered PRAYER.
Mr., Conklmg inquired whether the commit
tee on contested seats was ready to report.
The chair replied that he was told tho commit
tee was not ready, nor likely to be ready for
several hours; perhaps rot before p. IN.
Mr.. Conkliug, rising again, was received with
marked demonstrations of applausoin in tho gal.
leries Ike said ho also understood that the re.
port could not bo had from tho credentials
committee until late this afternoon, Ofcourse
no business could bo properly done until that
report should be received and the membership
Of tho convention should be established.
Therefore he nloYed n recess until tonight.
Mr.. Hale asked Mr.. COnking to give way n
moment, but he declined. Mr. Hale made Tho
point OF Order that II motion to take a recess
was debaia able. The chair sustained the point
Of order. Alr. Hale rose 10 oppose the motion
and was received with marked applause, which
was renewed when no urged that the under.
standing yesterday was that tho convention
should this morning proceed to work. Ho
argued that thoro WIS business NsAich the
convention could do in advance of the cro.
ientials report. llo cited the convention Of
1876 to show that it did much business I'm nd.
vance Of the report on contested seats, which
then, as now, had much hard work TO do and
was very lato with its report. The convention
Of 1876 perfected iia permanent organization
on its report OF the committee on rules and
order OF business. Mr.. Halo urged that this
convention is now ready for business Ggreat
lppiSusal, and hoped that it wouldn't throw
away its time, but 90 on with its Immediate
luties.
Mr. Conklng rose 70 reply, and was again
greeted with applause, Meantime the uislos
had been filled again by spectators, and tho
chair suspended business until they wero
again cleared when Mr. Conkling proceeded.
Tho only work that the convention would do
before o'clock would be to sit on uncush.
ionod seats and do nothing; his motion there.
fore was one of convenience. 1t was an onon
secret that the committee on permanent or
ganzaton wuuld report the continuance of
the present presiding officer in the chair. IL |
would not take hyo minutes to settle the per.
manent organization, There were important
