DEER HUNTING EXTRAORDINARY. The
Reno New Gazete OF January l2th tells
the following story The heavy fall of
snow which came the lst Of December
caught great many deer in the hills
Two brothers named Jones, who live on
Feather river, four miles from Beckwith,
found fresh trail down the mountain one
morning, which had evidently been made
by deer striking out for Red Rock and
other warm valleys over the Nevada line.
The Joneses stuck flag right in the track,
and during that night nearly hundred
deer turned back from it. Next day the
Jones boys started out on the trail and
soon come up to struggling deer founder
ing through the snow. A wounded deer
led one of the boys off the main trail, but
the other followed it up until he came to
a fence, where he found number of the
herd tired out and unable to 90 further.
He shot nine without moving from his po-
sition, and had to stop for want of bull
lets, having used up all be had.

TIE WILLIAM GOAT.

Mary hal William goat,
And he vas black as Jet;
And he followed Mary round all day,
And liked her you just bet
He went with her to school one day.
The teacher kicked him out
1t made the children grin, you know,
To have the goat about.
Bnt though old Whackem kicked him out
Yet still he fingered near
He waited just outside the door
Till Whaekem did appear.
Then William ran to meet the man
He ran his level best;
And met bin Just behind. YOU know,
Down just below the vest.
Old Whaekem turre ed a somersault;
The goat stood on his head,
And Mary laughed herself so sick
She had to 60 to bed.

a RELIC OF mgxIcAN RULE.

The following is. from the San Diego
Union of January 9th
J. C. Hayes (son of the late Hon. Benia-
min Hayes, to whom IN past years the
Union has frequently acknowledged its in,
debtedness for items of local history, COM
municates the following interesting account
of El Jupiter, the old brass cannon recently
bursted This piece of Spanish ordnance
has its history. 1t was brought up from
the old harbor Notifications at Ballast
Point to old San Diego in 1887, for the pro-
lection OF the people OF the pueblo. At
that time all the soldiers at the Presidio
had left tor Los Angeles, revolution I"
being in progress. After 1916 it was pop
uIarly known as "Canon de Don Miguel, :"
owing to the fact that Don Miguel de Pre-
drorena, ST., slowed it away to prevent it
being thrown into the sloughs when the
American forces entered the town in that
year. In lS47, when Commodore Stockton
returned from the capture Of Los Angeles,
he ordered the dismantling of the fortified.
tons he had previously thrown up on
" Stock Hill, and that all the cannon
in San Diego should be thrown into the
sea. Accordingly the cannon on the hill
were brought down, and, with "Jupiter, :"
were on the road to La Playa, when Philip
Crostwsite, who was at that time Second
Alcalde, went on the part of the pueblo to
the Commodore and represented the neces-
sity for keeping that piece in the town, to
fire salutes, and also in case of any rising
of the Indians, of which there was always
more or less apprehension. Commodore
Stockton readily granted this request of
II l.
pened to remain. 1t was mounted thirty
four years ago upon the carriage on which
it rested when it burst, by the carpenter of
the frigate Congress, who made the pom.
derous wheels from oak timber on the ship.
Ell Jupiter was cast in Manila in 1888,
which date it bears. It's companion pieces
of ordnance were, by order Of the Commo-
dore, as above stated, thrown into the
deepest waters Of the bay. perhaps, if it
were thought worth while, one or more of
them could now be recovered.

For the RECORD UNION
WAITING.

We often kneel upon the shif.inssands,
And watch, with Outstretched arms the cruel tide
That bears beyond the grasp O. our weak hands,
Our treasures, dearer than all earth beside;
While we would give our lives, if they might be
4 sacrifice To set those treasures free.
We grapple iercey-with the empty air;
We shrek aloud-n5 answer meets our cry;
Not cen an echo mocks our hope ess prayer
The earth is silent pitiless the sky
While drifting drifting, far beyond our sight,
Our treasures pass into the shrouding night
But when we turn at length in dumb despair,
Knowing our struggles fruitless, tears all vain,
a strong Hand lifts the weary weight Of care,
And we taught, through sore distress and pain,
Lies hardest lesson, sadly learned and late,
They also serve, who only stand and wait"

A chest of old drawings lately discoy-

Wheat and Intsraat.

There IS now very large bulk Of wheat in
the various warehouses throughout tke State
waiting more favorable prices and more rea-
sonable frsights. While most of this wheat
is nominally in the hands and ownership Of
the producers, large sums of money have
been borrowed on it by these producers, and
while they are waiting for better prices the
interest money is gradually, but surely and
constantly, adding to the cost of the grain.
Thus the farmers are paying out money all
the time upon bare hope of getting it back
by the advance in the price of wheat or the
decrease in the freights to market. They are
submitting to certain loss in the hope to
secure a very uncertain, aud may be,
improbable gain. But this is not the
worst feature of the present situation.
The conditions of the loans are all in favor Of
the loaners and against the borrowers. The
farmers have given what are called iron-clad
notes for the money borrowed, and have
turned over the warehouse receipts SIS secur.
ity, and have entered into agreements that
whenever the money loaned becomes SO large
by the accumulation of interest, or the value
of the grain becomes so small by the fall of
prices hat the wheat is not likely upon a
sale to more than pay the debt, then the loan
ers may sell the grain at private or public
sale, pay themselves and all costs, and return
whstever balance there may be, if any, to the
farmers. To render the situation still worse,
