has no chance against the Rentz

that way the performers who are

has excited sympathy for them
here, and they play to good houses
at cheap p'ices of admission.

An nl.rimed Remark.

Carson is bestirring itself abou
it's Fair very much in the same
manner as 1t did about the 4th o
July-its newspapers are putting
their cheeks and emitting immense
blasts of wind.-Ent~rprise.
1t would be a great blessing te
Nevada if the Virginia papers could
be run by people who knew some
thing about the agricultural needs
OF this State.
These mining papers look at ev-
erything through quartz spectacles,
and belittls everything that does
not smack of sulphrets and stamp
mills.
These things are all we'll enongh
in their way, but there is something
else in this State besides mines. In
stead Of belittllng the District Fair
the Virginia papers ought to help it
along, a. Storey county 10 portion
Of the District.
Last years District Fair was a
big success, and those who attended
we're better pleased than with the
State Fair, especially the horsemen.
who will be back here this year in
large force.
We hope to nee the Virginia pa
pers pulling for the District Fair in
the future.

A few days ago a number OF San
Francis, o people stopping at the
Ormshy House heard Of Shaw's big
swimming bath aud suggested that
it would be 4 good idea 10 organize
a party and go out and have = good
time.
Last evening eighteen people
went out in the party, had sump-
tuous lunch and big frolic in the
water, attired in the regulation Sante
Monica bathing suits.
The affair was a great success
and those who attended say that
for real solid enjoyment, nothing
equals one Of these water romps.
This sort of amusement ought to
become popular in Carson.

He Comes Down From the
| Noun aims for Beef.
Yesterday morning the butcher
at Schulrz's slaughter house went
into the ward and out again like a
house afire.
He ran up against cinnamon
bear branching bones only a few
feet away.
He mounted horse and came
into town to tell the Sheriff.
Jack Furlong and the Sheriff
armed to the elbows went out to
kill the bear and some of Fore
paugh's men went out with ropes
to capture the beast alive.
"Don't do it, said OLD John Fore
paugh, only another animal to
feed
The party returned with no bear
although they found his tracks all
over the sand fiat near Schnltz's.
Mrs. Little saw the bear when
it came through the Little ranch.
1t came down from the mountains
West of the city and was doubtless
driven in by hunger.
At last accounts it. had not been
seen again.

WONDERFUL FLYERS.
Toads, Snakes and Fish That Sail
Through the Air Like Birds.

Toads, Snakes and Fish That Sail
Through the Air Like Birds.
Some years ago naturalist was
wandering in the forests of Sumatra,
whefi he observed a curious object
dashing away through the air. 1t was
soon followed by another and another,
all seeming to Swoop down from the
trees, and rising, 10 alight again.
Anxious to discover what these Curl
Gus animals were he concealed him
self in bush and awaited their ap-
pearance. Soon one came dashing
along, and as it reached him he fred
with small bird shot, and succeeded IN
bringing the flyer down. To his aston
ishment it was a toad; not an animal
like toad, but a regular toad; not so
different from our ordinary tree toads,
but provided by nature with remark
able webs between his toes, which
formed parachutes of sufficient spread
to bear up the little creature in it's
flights from tree to tree.
The most wonderful flyers in the
worlds history are found among the
reptiles, especially among the strange
fossil forms OF the prehistoric world.
Imagine a bat with wings twenty-five
feet across from tip to tip. and some
idea may be gained Of these remarka-
BILE creatures that flew through the air,
spreading terror everywhere. 1mag
Al, l. L,
armed with ferocious teeth, and we
have d veritable dragon in all that the
term implies. Their wings seemed like
huge pieces Of parchment stretched
from long, attenuated fingers. These
creatures were known as pteranodores,
and in America were found ranging
from pigeons in size to the gigantic
creatures described.
In a trip out from the Golden Gate
in almost any direction one may see
some of the most interesting of all
flyers, the flying fishes. The writer
has watched these little creatures in
all waters where they are found, and
those of our waters between San Fran
cisco and San Diego are by far the
most interesting, making the most re-
markable flights. During a recent
trip in the vicinity Of Santa Catalina
these fishes were constantly leaving
the water in front of the vessel and
soaring away with their wonderful
wing-like pectorals and ventrals spread
to the breeze.-San Francisco Chroni-

Greenness and Progress.

A person who manifests an unusual In
nocence, or ignorance, in ordinary things,
is often derisively spoken of as being
green" But there are worse states than
greenness in tn world. A green thing
is a growing thing Indeed, the words
''green' and grow come directly from
the same verbal root-showing that the
ideas of greenness and growth were origin
ally one. Properly, then, it ought to be
regarded as a compliment to be called
green" The trouble is that the really
green persons do not usually get the credit
of greenness. A truly growing, progress
i've man must be always green at some
point or he Ill turn brown and wither and
dry and fall from the tree of the world 8
useful activities. Some persons, like
some leaves, take on their autumnal tints
before they have reached their full stature.
They do not remain green and growing
long enough. They stop being learners
too soon.
