odd dollars to send to J. A. Bsnham, Of this
place. Night arrived, and as Saarback did
not return to the ranch, Mr.. Vail and Mr.
Rising started for the station to hunt him up,
thinking that possibly some accident might
have befallen him. Upon arriving at the
station the horse that Saarback had ridden
was found htched to the fence close by but
no trace OF the missing man, and Vail and
Rising naturally came 10 the conclusion
,ha, he had appropriated the forty dollars
and skipped the country. On their way
home they stopped at the Arnold ranch, and
there met Sheriff Brann, who had camped
on his way to Dayton from Mason Valley.
To him was related wha, had occurred, and
he Immediately came to Dayton, but it was

A Lone Fisherman.

One day last week Jase LothroP, who had
jus. returned from the burnt mining districts
Of Esmeralda county, took hook and line
and goodly lunch h, and hied himself to the
grassy woodland along the banks Of the
Horseshoe lake near Sutro, to have a quict
fish. He anchored his boat in the shade Of a
weeping willow, tied barley sack behind
the craft and cast his line. His luck was
good, and Immediately he drew out a. fine a
catfish as could be feu nd in any waters In the
State. Taking him from the hook Ease threw
the fish int the barley sack, which was near
ly submerged in the water behind the boat
to keep the fish fresh, bated his hook and in
few minutes again drew out another fine
fish. His luck continued for several hours,
until he thought it about time to return
home. He was delighted to think what a
fine string Of fish he would have to show to
the boys when he returned to Dayton, and
started to pull up his barley sack which he
concluded must be nearly three-quarters full.
1t did not pull that heavy. though, and not q
more chagrined man han Jase could be found
| in the State when he landed the sack in the
boat and found it empty with hole in til:
bottom about as big as hens egg. He die
not stop TO make another catch, but started
for home disguised. In relating the story he
said he noticed the similarity in the size Of
the fish, in the lake but did not think much
about it at the time, but has new come to the
conclusion that he caught one FISH about q
hundred times, and that that fish is to-day
the best fed one in the lake. His theory il
that the fish he threw into the bag ran out o.
the hole, swan around 10 the front OF the
boat again and ate every angle worm thai
was placed on the hook.
