The Dead "Herald. g"

The Esmerdidd Herald was closed by
creditors last Wednesday. Hawthorne
is a town which, for its age and size,
is unequalcd rs to thrift and solidity.
lis outlook Is promising and ia eli.
mate is wonderful, h,!t it Is still
small town, perhaps the smallest OH
the Coast wherein anybody has been
foolish enough to start a second news.
paper. The business men cannot
afford to support two papers, and
while there is plenty Of good weather,
mild climate does not so far toward
sustaining even a weekly journal.
Those who have felt Obliged to assist
in defraying the expenses of the paper
will feel relieved that so much of their
expense has been stopped, and another
example is furnished to the ambitious
people who think that it is only neccs-
sary to get some printing material to
start in with newspaper and take
possession of field already occupied.
Every town of any size is benefited by
one journal, but where it is SIMPLY a
pleasant, thriving, small town, the
citizens who are called on for support
are subjects of imposition when asked
to contribute to two, where one is able
to do all the work needed in that line

Coal,

Yesterday lobe Crossman brought
in sack of coal from vein situated
in the mountains some miles west
from town. His sample is from the
surface of the ground, and, as is
always the case with groupings, is not
of very good quality; but, even mixed
largely with Ignite as it is, it burns
readily, and has been used by the pros
pectors in the fires at which they
sharpencd their picks. There is a
large deposit and the development
will add immensely to the resources
of the State If the material improves
in quality, as is generally the case
where the depth is sufficient to remove
it from atmospheric action.

Yosemite.

The Yosemite season is approaching
and several Yosemite Clubs are organ.
izing. AS fast rs full membership is
obtained rehearsals begin. The trip
must be made on horse or mule back,
and the ladies are training for the
mule.train performance by sitting on
backs of chairs placed in rows ON the
floor to represent the tandem of Yo.
semitic expeditions. The trip from
Hawthorne need not be costly, and as
it is the most convenient railroad
approach to the wonderland, a number
of tourists will probably pass this way
during the season.

Get Registered.

Residents of this school district
should get registered. An important
special election will be held on the
29th of May, in which everybody
should be interested. A special tax of
$4,000 is needed for the purposes of
the district, and taxpayers and citizens
should be prepared to vote. Those
who are registered now will not be
required to register again. AS will be
seen by the legal notice in another
column, the books are now open and
will close on the 18th of May. The
public school is something which IS of
immediate interest to all, and its affairs
should not be allowed to seem of less
importance because of the excitement
concerning National and State politics.
4 suitable school-house is needed and
it cannot be built unless the funds are
provided by special levy. While the
amount may seem large, it will, in
fact, be comparatively light on the
individual taxpayers, as the two large
companies will, as has before this been
explained, pay the greater proportion.

Curious Egg Puzzle.

To put an egg in phial, soak it in
strong vinegar until the shell becomes
soft, when quite soft it may be ex-
tended lengthwise without breaking
it, and so put carefully through neck
of small bottle, when by pouring
cold water upon it, it will resume its
former shape and hardness. Though
one of the simplest of tricks, this is
really curiosity to those who are not
in the secret, the question, How did
the egg get into the phial?" is a com.
plete puzzle.

increase of passenger traffic.
Ed. Gallagher, Il younger brother of
the Senator and an old timer, has re-
turned to the Valley after an absence
of five years in Wisconsin. His many
old friends are glad to welcome his
return.
The stock men of Smith Valley are

leg Burbanks Brothers are among
the heavy losers. As yet Mason Valley
has not been troubled, but the alfalfa
is now big enough to kill and we will
get benefit, as usual.

odsly injured by runaway accident
last week, is improving slowly. Mr..
W. B. S. is looking for pair of nice,
gentle oxen for buggy team. His

Semi-yveekly Mail.

Garfield people, knowing their own
necessities, are already agitating for a
semi-weekly mail. Probably during
next Summer the district will assume
a prominence second to none in the
State. An enterprise has already been
inaugurated which will add greatly to
the number of residents, and semi
weekly mail is not too much to ask
for a place of such Importance.
