Our attention has been called To the fact
that if the steamer. jesse X. Bell, of the
Pool line. would make Coushatta her ter
miLus, instead of Grand Ecore a. at pres
ent, connections could be made which
would supply Homer, Ninden and all the
Blstenran country, with reliable weekly
boat. Why can't it Ice dune' The Bell is
a fuc large steamer with sufficient carry
ing capacity To accommodate a larger trade
than she is in. The additional advantage
Ia passengers IN time and comfort is also a
consideration of great importance.

sides in the country, and when about to hitcll-up his horse to return home, he found the wheels of the buggy missing. Search was immediately made, but the wheels could not be found, and he was compelled to accept of an invitation to stay ali night. Next morning, however, the wheels were found up the road apiece. Evidently the green-eyed monster had something to do with this piece of mis- chief, and, no doubt the young lady has more admirers than one.
 MT. Editor:- wish you would have the following item set up i'll whispering type, if you have any:
 Last Saturday night. between hours of 10 and II, four young men from this place might have been seen by those who were up at u late hour, slowly vending their way up to a young ladys residence, for the sole purpose of serenading her. Stepping under the lady's window, who, by-the-way sleeps on the second floor, they commenced the familiar sons-"My Grandfather's Clock" They next began Ihc SouI-SllIIlhS Soiis5- ooiuiuo IhiouSh the Rye, but before they had time to finish the latter song, the young lady ap- peared at the window, dressed ill phantom custume, and scattered quantity of dampncss among them, which cooled their ardor, and caused them to make d nasty retreat. On arriving at the rubber factory discussion took place among the young men us regards the young ludys motive ill treating them so harshly. On, thought that, perhaps. the young lady miotook them for ''city rougho" from Bridgeport. Another gave it as his opinion, that he believed the young lady was somewhat religiously inclined and did not relish such songs us My Grand fathers Clock" Coming Through the Rye" etc. One thing they all agreed upon and that w1s-that no good wife could be found in that house It is singular how some of our young ladies throw away chances, through peevishness or some other cause, the loss of which they may regret ill after life."

 And thinking from these to find rest; Be assured that in vain are your hopes. The Branchville Spring Bed is the best. In the gloom of the dark midnight hour When the tolls of the day are all past, How delightsome that magical power, That locks all our senses at last. But your sleep to be healthful and sweet, And refreshing from toes to your head, Must be free from those terrors that

 Now, if nightmares and ghosts you'd defy And dream of the bliss that's to come.

Ever since the cold snap the Wa
shoe and Piute Indians have been SELL
ing jack rabbits in astonishing quanti-
ties at figures which have ruled con-
siderably below their usual market
prices. Bill Jackson, who has been
out hunting and prospecting for a
week or ten days past, tellsa strange
story in connection with the bounti-
full supply of rabbits which the Indi-
ans are furnishing. A few days ago he
visited Kings Canyon, and there he
asserts he found acres of jack rabbits
frozen stiff OH the ground. Rather
than shoulder the responsibility of the
remarkable statement, the Appedl
gives the yarn in Jackson's own
words:
"You see, the cold snap drove the
rabbits into the canyons out of the
wind. One moonlight night I came
across a drove of over 500 making for
the canyon. They were all huddled
together, getting as much wamth as
possible from each Others bodies. The
drove were packed together as close as
the threads on three-ply carpet, and
as they moved along they looked like
big army blanket drawn over the
ground. They passed close by me,
and when I fired into the drove with
a shotgun, eight or ten dropped, but
the balance closed right up and passed
on as before. Ididn't think at the time
exactly what was up, but few days
ago | was up in Kilg's canyon, and
there saw a sight which was the
most uncommOnest thing ever glued
my eyes to. There We're the rabbits
acres of email huddled together in
a bunch, and packed like sardines,
and every blasted one of 'em froze stiff
as n wedge. turned up the edge OF
the mass with my gun, and broke of
a slice with a dozen in all stuck to-
gether Presently some Indians came
along and began to yell. They con-
cluded they'd struck a meat bonanza,
and they've been luggin Off the rab-
bits ever since. That's the reason rab-
bits are so cheap around the town.
| Why out in the h.7rs'1 you can find
whole gangs of 'em standin' on their
hind legs frozen stiff. shot Il single
one the other day sposin' he was
alive"
Other hunters report thousands OF
| frozen jack-rabbits in Carson Valley
although none have as yet viewed the
astonishing sights described by Jack
son. Hank Monk verifles .Jackson's 5
yarn, but says that the present crisis
in the affairs of iack-rabbits isn't to
be compared with the general destruc-
tion of the animals in 1863. He as
serts that ''every darned rabbit on
earth was frozen stiff" Yesterday
Hank had more to say about rabbits:
"That's all true what Jackson says,
but he hasn't told half. Yesterday |
seed hundreds of them rabbits thawin'
out. 1t is fact. Whenever the sun
hit 'em hard they'd Timber up, give
themselves a shake and skip away for
the sagebrush. Little gin and SUI gar?
Guess | will"
