A Robust Imagination.
-Carson City Appeal.l


 Judge Carey showed the greatest interest in these weird tales and edged up 10 the group.
 |" These arc curious yarns, gentle men, but believe them all. 1 had a dog once, back in Nebraska, that l kept 10 herd lumber"
 (" Beg your pardon, Judge, did you say the dog herded lumber?'
 '' Yes, SIT, cottonwood boards. We always kept a dog there 10 bring the lumber in at ni 1ht.
 Every body now paid the closest at- tention, as they}knew the boss was at work.
 6" It was this way: Cottonwood boards warp like thunder in the sun. A board would begin to hump it's back up about nine o'clock in the morning and in half an hour it would turn over. By II it would warp the other way with heat and Hop. Each time it turned it moved couple of feet away, always following the sun to- ward the west. The first summer l lived in Brownville over 10, 900 feet of lumber skipped out over the hills the day before 1 had advertised a house raisin'. went Jp the county seat to attend a lawsuit and when l got back there wasn't a stick of timber left. It had strayed into the uplands. An ordinary board would climb two mile hill during a hot week, and when it struck the timber it would keep worming in and out among the trees like a garter snake. Every farm CT in the State had Co keep shepherd dogs to follow hls lumber around the country, keep 1t together, and show where It was In the morning. We didn't need any fumes there for the lumber. We sawed it east of the place we wanted 10 use il, and let it warp itself to its destination, with men and dogs to head it of al the right time; we never lost & stick. Well, here comes the jury" cOntin- ued tho Judge. co The witness lied, so I guess they'll disagree"

AMONG the most delightful summer beverages IS the delicious King Ni!- liam punch, invented by Paul, the pro- fessional mlxologist of the Mint. This drink is the beverage supplied by King William to the German officers in the field during the civil war with France, the recipe of which was fur nished him by Mir. Jos. Betz, and it is historically recorded that it's influence was potent in that great struggle for the remarkable successes of the Ger man army. In times of peace, how ever, the effects of thls wholesome drink are soothing, refreshing and sOuoritic.
