Every one has heard the joke about
fencing a town in.' An old Nevada
friend in the office yesterday. tells it
as fact that the town of Bullionville,
Nevada. is fenced in," literally.
Some time ago the two principal
mining companies put up 100000
differentiation works that didn't
work. Everything shut down, and
neighboring bands of cattle came
licking around the pans and settlers,
and died from the effects of the chem
icals on their innards. So the ranch
ers got together and hauling lumber,
they just naturally fenced the town
in." Time was when Bullionville was
red hot little town with lots of coin
and heaps of fun, but. SO goes the
world.

Yesterday party of thirty eyoung
men left Indiana for Colville, W. T.,
where they will form a stock company
for the purpose of carrying on a
stock ranch. A peculiar feature of
their agreement is that no member
OF the firm can draw his money out of
the general fund during the first five
years after the date of organization.
Any one leaving the business will
forfeit his investment of $500, which
is the sum put in by each member.
The young men will do their own
herding, branding and dealing, and
will thus be enabled to avoid the ex-
pense of cowboys.
