Elegant Spuds.

Sometime ago an item appeared IN the
TINES in regard to Mr.. Lovejoy receiving a
diploma from Mr.. Havenor, for the finest
potatoes sent to the Worlds Exposition at
New Orleans. A mistake exists somewhere
in regard to that item, as it now appears
that the potatoes were raised on the Barrett
Brothers ranch in the upper end of Mason
Valley, four miles from Greenfield. Mr..
Barrett sent 40 pounds Of the spuds to Mr..
Lovejoy for the purpose of having them sent
to New Orleans. These potatoes sold at the
Exposition for $40, or 81 per pound Mr.
Barrett has about 1850 tons of the same va.
riety of potatoes on hand, and any person
who may wish lot for seed use can obtain
them by writing to him. The name OF the
potatoes is "Pride OF Nevada"

How a Carson Editor Takes his Defeat

How a Carson Editor Takes his Defeat
Wheh Sam Davis was beaten before the
Republican State Convention, it made some
Of his newspaper friends feel pretty hot.
Davis has done considerable legislation to
help the newspapers, and has more than
once gone to some time and expense estab.
fishing their rights in the courts. Conse-
quently they would like to see him get hold
of some Of the political emoluments. AT
ter his defeat several Of the newspaper men
attending the Convention called at the Ap-
zeal Office to condole with Sam and have q
quiet growl. But they made big mistake.
They found Sam as clipper as May morn
ing, and already mapping out plans for belt
ing the Democratic ticket. For some time
Sam has been Chairman OF the Executive
Committee OF the Nevada Press Association
and he began at once to crack the Associa-
ton whip over the whole fraternity and
order everybody in line. He said he had a
special desire to see the Republican news
papers make the best fight this year they had
ever made, and above all, he wanted to see
his Convention opponent Joe Harlow, get the
biggest majority on the ticket. Sam came
into the fight after about all the delegates
were pledged TO Harlow, and yet he brought
his vote up to 81, the largest vote received
by any beaten candidate, a strength which
astonshed everybody. Had the vote on
State Printer taken place half an hour
earlier it is generally conceded that Davis
would have won, as he had split Harlow
delegation in Storey and received I'll votes
there. Most of Sans friends were tied up
by pledges to Harlow made year ago, and
could not help him. For single handed
rough and tumble fighter in a Convention he
is what the boys pronounce good one and
no mistake, and future Conventions may as
well consider him in their calculations. i
all the beaten candidates exhibited the SAINT
spirit the Republican party would march tc
victory in solid phalanx every year.

TRAIN DITCIIED.
Sundays south bound Train on the
4. sc. Goes over u Bank.

Last Sunday morning, about halt an hour
after train time, the locomotive came in
without the train, and Conductor Brown
gave the information that the tram had been
ditched about TWO miles from Dayton. Quite
a number OF parties went up to see the
wreck and found good sized smaSh.up. The
train that morning consisted Of two box cars,
four fiat cars loaded with lumber, one with
car wheels, the fast freight and two coaches.
The accident occurred just this side OF the
Italian ranch and as near as can be learned
was due to one Of the cars Of lumber failing
to curve. This threw the car from the track,
and the side stakes breaking, the lumber
scattered of from the car for a considerable
distance. Coming Immediately to another
curve, and this car being now unbalanced it
toppled over down the hill, dragging with it
the car loaded with wheels and another car
Of lumber, also throwing one box car down
the bank and pulling the hind end of an.
other from the rails. Johnson's gang Of men
went from here to the scene Of disaster and
a gang also came down from the Mound
House, and in about three hours they had
the two cars that were not in the ditch on
the track. and the way cleared so that the
train could go on. Nobody was injured, but
the damage to rolling stock will be consid
cradle. There is no fault to be attached to
any person for the accident. A wrecking
gang was at work Monday and yesterday
and the debris is pretty well cleared up and
the track slaughtered so that there is now
no cause for delays.

Losses of Life and Damage to Property in
Towns in Iowa and Missouri.
CHICAGO, April 15.-Special dispatches from
Panama, Ia, say that the cyclone which struck
Coon Rapids, yesterday was more serious in it's
effects than at first supposed. One boy was
killed, and numerous persons were injured.
twenty-five houses, two churches, one school
house, and several business houses were de-
stroyed. A freight train, except the locomotive,
was blown from the track and demolished, and
the contents ruined. a
considerable damage 1t is supposed to have
started about three miles east of Griswold, then
passed north and slightly east then going about
nine miles northeast of Atlantic, and passing two
and half miles east of Brayton. The cyclone
had the appearance of funnel-shaped cloud.
Southeast of Atlantic, about four miles, Henry
Kogerss house was blown away and his hired
man was badly injured. John Kinks big stable,
three hundred feet long, was destroyed, together
with his house. In Benton township ten houses
were totally destroyed and one woman fatally
Injured. Near Brayton the dwellings of James
Reynolds, William Burtner and Donald Burtner
were destroyed, and also the Bnrtner school
house. The pupils escaped, however, by run
ming with the family into BURNERS cave. or cy-
clone cellar, they having seen the cloud coming.
MIR. Northgraves, In that vicinity, was danger

ports from the cyclone are very meagre so far,
but it is feared that great damage has been done
and many lives lost.

Operations In East St. Louis.

ST. LOUIS, April 15.-In East St Louis to-day
the strikers are not numerous in the streets or
around the railroad premises, and the quantity
of freight handled by the nine roads centering
there is in excess of that handled at any time
since the strike was commenced, yet the
business done is short of what it would be were
no strike in force This is not because the rail-
roads are not in condition to handle all freight
offered them, for most of them have very nearly
full force of men at work but because ship
pers generally fear delay and possible loss If they
ship by the roads affected by the strike. The
Gripping of the transfer facilities between the
different yards has heretofore lessened the
through freight business, but today the ferries
have been called into service and are plying to
and fro between the different railroad yards
situated on the levee, and the business of the
different roads has by shis means been consider
ably Increased. The Cairo Short-line
has several employed to-day upon its
platforms, over which large amount OF
freight is passing, and freight trains are being
received and dispatched from the yards. The
activity in the yards OF the Indianapolis 81 Sc.
Louis road is greater than formerly There ara
twenty men at work upon the platforms and
sufficient number of switchmen in the yards to
do all the necessary work. The difficulty expe-
rienced by the Louisville 81 Nashville officials in
employing new men; caused by the shooting by
their deputies, last Friday, has necessitated the
importation OF men from stations along the road.
This road Is now in a condition to handle all the
freight offered. On the premises of the VAN
daia, the Ohio & Mississippi the Chicago 81
Alton, and the Chicago. Burlington & Quincy
there are at work the same forces as on previous
days. and all the freight offering is handled with
out difficulty.

at your service" The fish leaped out of
the water to the Presidents feet rs dead as
n canned mackerel.
This story, other guides claim; is fabri-
cation. They hold that the tremendous
catches the President secures is not due to
any partiality on the part of the trout, but
to the skill and attention which Dir. CleVe-
land brings to bear on on his rod Mrs.
Cleveland seems also TO be fascinated by
the sport, and, under her husbands tute-
lage, she is likely to become as celebrated
as he in these parts. lin a report of one
days catch of front the Presidents figure
is put at lis, while his wife iscredited with
40 more of the speckled beauties. As she
has had but little experience her success
can be attributed to luck, though the
charming grace with which she handles
the rod should be enough to capture the
most timid fish.
Near the Presidents cabin is the Saranac
inn, which will accommodate about seventy
guests. 1t is owned by company OF the
President s friends, who run it MOTTO make
mOrey, but rs sort of private club house.
The telegraph connects the place with civ

The President left the White House on
August Is, and it is his intention to be
back at his desk on September II. Then
will the Presidents WOODEN shirts be put
away where the moths cannot reach them.
And the trout without fear may rest for
another season.
