A SHORT. THORN STOCK FARM.
What an Enterprising StOckman is
Doing in This County.

The old Buckand ranch on the Carson
river near Fort Churchill, has been trans
formed into one OF the finest thoroughbred
stock farms in the State, since it was pull
chased some two years ago by MessFs. Stn-
son & Marsh. Lately Mr.. Marsh became
the sole proprietor Of the property, and he
and his son, Wilbur, are increasing their ef-
forts TO introduce into Nevada herds the
thoroughbred short horn stock. Mr.. Marsh
is doubtless the best posted breeder Of short.
horns in the State. He has taken particular
pains TO make the study Of this breed a
specially, believing that it, among all the
others, is the one best adapted to the wants
OF the stockmen of this State. All parties
who are judges of thorougbreds agree that
MIR. Marshs Durhams are the finest in the
State, and probably on this coast. Great
pains have been taken by the gentleman to
see that his animals are genuine, and he has
also been to great expense in purchasing,
never hesitating to give fair price for a
good animal, knowing that in time such pur-
chases will prove the most profitable. That
he is correct in his theory, there is no doubt
for blood is beginning to tell among the herds
| into which Marsh's bulls have been intro.
duced. In Mason Valley Mr.. Marsh sold
several short HON bulls some two years ago.
The prices paid were at the time considered
high by the buyers, but now there is not one
of them who would refuse to pay double the
amount for good bull Of this breed rather
than to without one, or have an inferior ant
NAL. Their theory now is, always buy the
best. Last week carload was taken to In.
dependence for sale, as II seems that the
farmers in that section Of the country are
also waking up 10 the fact that thoroughbred
stock is the only kind TO keep.
1t costs no more 10 keep and raise good
beef cattle than it does poor ones, and that
there is more money in short. horns for beef
than in scrubs, has been proven repeatedly
by the sales made by Mr.. Marsh in Virginia
City to butchers. For instance, his 3.year-
old Durham steers will out.dress the 4-year-
old scrubs from 90 to 100 pounds. This is,
Of itself, an item worth considering; and
again. the beef from thoroughbred stock is
| worth more than the other.
That Nevada possesses greater facilities
for the breeding Of thoroughbreds, than any
other State in the Union, MIR. Marsh says he
is positive, and we know that to him large.
| ly is due the great improvement that has
taken place in our herds during the past eight
| or ten years. As many years hence Nevada
| will doubtless have the purest breed Of short.
horns that there is in the country, all owing
TO the indomitable energy and careful Sc.
lections made by the owner of the For,
| Churchill stock farm.

THE GENOA SHOOTING.
Joe Mays Killed In n Quarrel by
Fred Davis.

At o'clock on Wednesday evening Joe.
Mays formerly Of the Orphans Home OF
Carson was shot and killed by Fred Davis at
the lodging house run by the asailant's
mother. 1t appears that Mays had for some
time been rooming at the lodging house kept
by Mrs. Davis. and Davis and May were IRE.
quently in liquor und quarreing. On
Wednesday morning they had FIST fight in
which Davis was getting whipped when
some woman stopping at the house took a
haSd and Mays was badly scratched.
Davis after the fight got a revolver and
snapped it at Mays, but without effect as it
was not loaded 1t is alleged that later in
the afternoon Mrs. Davis went to Peck
Burnham's and securing revolver brought
1t down to her son. About o'clock Mays
went back to the house to secure his trunk,
when he got into another alteration with
Davis who fred two shots. One took effect
in the left breast just below the heart. Mays
walked about two blocks and going into a
saloon said: "l'm shot, do what you cam"
and in a few minutes was dead. Davis was
at once placed under arrest and lodged in

The Chinese BOne-Scrapers Dedicate

this week the Chinese Masons Of this place
had high old time irelng off bombs, FIRE.
crackers, ETC., and eating roast pig, duck,
chicken, dog sausages aud many other in
delicacies of the season. The cause Of all
this hilarity was the dedication Of a Chinese
Mason Hall that was built here last Summer
and also the peeling of the dried flesh from
the bones of one OF the high men of the Or.
der. and the shipment Of his bones to the
Old Country. Monday night the fun began
by the illumination Of the hall and the beat.

was gone through with, the box was sealed,
and all that remained Of Sop Kee was on its
way TO China via Virginia City. For what
might de called a funeral the Mongolans
enjoyed themselves hugely. About four, or
half past, the visiting brethren all returned
to their respective homes, and the Piutes are
now longing and wondering when there will
be another shipment Of bones. as they are
anxious to partake Of another boiled dinner.

This is one OF the finest halls for dancing in

be done. Supper will be served at the Oc-

To say that it will be excellent would be
putting it mildly, for everybody knows that

UKjustly Accused.

Last Friday night the sum OF $3.50 myte-
riously disappeared from the safe in the OF.
hee Of J. M. Douglass & Co., Of this place.
The money was placed in the safe by w. j..
Douglass, so he says, and belonged to T. J.
Flaws. The next day Mr.. Flaws wished to
draw part OF the money he had deposited,
and upon going to the safe it was found that
aroll OF gold amounting to $3.50 was miss
ing. There was no evidence that the safe
was broken into, and as there is no one
about the Office at nights but the Waterman,
julie Dreyfus, Mr.. Douglass called him and
asked il he knew anything about the money,
Mr.. Dreyfus declared that he did not, and
was then accused OF theft. The matter was
cropped Tor day or two, and last Monday
night Dreyfus was discharged. He still dis
claimed having any knowledge Of the miss.
ing money. On Thursday of this week the
money was found in pigen hole in the Office
desk, where Mr.. Douglass had probably
placed it in a spell OF absenlmindedness
lhe hnding Of the money. though, does not
Ncompense Mr.. Drcyfus for the loss of his
good name. We believe that Mr.. Douglass
judged too hastily, and also believe that
Inc least that can be done to make repara
aon, would be TO re.instate Mr.. Dreyfus in
MS iormer position and exonerste him from
al blame IN the matter.
