have been entirely social. Who

Alta meeting OF the Board, held last
Saturday. the following proceedings were
hand:
Whereas, J. G.. Ford has been sued by
White Pine county for taxes ON sheep
for the year 1887. upon which he had
paid in Eureka county, it was ordered
that Eureka county defray the expenses
in case Of said Ford being defeated, and
that ]. L. Wines, Esq, be employed to
defend the said suit, at an expense not
to exceed 500.
The official bond Of s. s. Sloss, Asses.
sor.elect Of Eureka county, was offered
for approval, and it was ordered that in
so far as the form of said bond, and the
sufficiency Of the sureties therein are
concerned, is approved, but that the
whole OF the said bond is rejected for
the reason that it does not appear to the
Board that any such officer as Assessor
was authorized by law TO be elected in
1883, and that therefore it is not proper
to file. present, or have approved any
such official bond.
Ordered. That the rent of the Villa
saloon, due from II. A. Knight. be and
the same is hereby reduced to $50 in full,
tho same being paid to the Clerk this

WILD HORSES.
The Fiery untamed sliced I'm the
Mountains of yeynaa.

W ANtNbtsRs
We have all read of wild horses on
the plains, but there arc not many
people who know thst there are
several bands in The mountains OF
Nevada. Such Is nevertheless the
case, and at least three bands have
been seen in this county along the
high range near the Lander line.
There is one group Of seven or eight
animals that is seen every Summer on
the very top Of Shacknasty mountain
southwest Of Cortez. An old gray
stallion seems TO be the king pin of
his herd. He is essentially a polyga-
nous brute as nothing but mares are
ever seen in his company, and he is
said to guard them with fathe-ly care.
Last Summer some OF the cowboys
out in that section gave chase TO the
band for two or three days. When
hotly pursued the old stallion was
seen to drop to the rear and vigorously
bite the others to make them ac-
celerate their speed. He allows none
to escape, and if q tame" animal
falls in his way it is taken along also.
In remarkably short time domestic
animal becomes as wild as the rest.
Several are known to have been lost
in this way. These wild horses look
especially large and fine when climb
ing the precipitous mountains. They
can go anywhere a mountain sheep
will go. But they do not bear close
investigation. When caught they are
found to be not much larger than
Peter Breen's greyhound. The boys
out on the old Shed Wells ranch cor
raled one last season after two days
hard drive over the hills. The poor
little thing was not worth the effort.
1t completely broke his heart and con-
stitution TO be brought under the rules
Of civilization. As the boys expressed
it, che wasn't worth short bit," and
they now pay no attention whatever
to the wild horses Of Shacknasty
mountain. There is a lesson Of race
and blood and philosophy in the con-
dition of these wild horses OF Nevada.
They have interbred and bred down
until there is nothing left OF them
either in size or endurance. 1t would
require a good deal OF thoroughbred
crossing to bring them up again to the
ordinary cayuse.

Last Tuesday evening, while many
Of our citizens were ioyfully celebrat-
ing the New Year, the soul Of an
aged, honest and respectable citizen
OF Eureka, gently released from its
earthly tenement, took fight into that
unknown world, which, to all living
mortals, is a profound mystery. Some
three years ago, nature yielding to
many years Of hard service in the
battle Of life, poor old Colonel !"
Riley first showed the commencement
of the decay natural to the aged. He
became weak and sickly, and although
rallying occasionally, he finally was
confined to his bed and there lin
gered through many months until the
happy release came, which we now
chronicle. The subject of this sketch
was intimately known to all our old
citizens as a generous man, which,
combined with his aToiiary aud With
cisms, so natural to those Of his race,
made for him a host OF friends and
amused all who became acquainted
with him. He was possessed OF a
great deal OF energy, and at various
times in his life enjoyed considerable
wealth. From 1859 up to 1850 he
owned and worked rich hydraulic gold
mines at San Domingo, about four
miles from Murphy's Camp, in Gala
veras county, Cal. Those who knew
him in the early California days say
he was always successful in his min
ing ventures. In the Fall OF 1866 he
turned up in Washoe. He went to
White Pine in 1869. He came to Eu-
reka in 1871 or ~, and was occupied
as scavenger, which, for several
years, was a lucrative employment,
but his naturally generous disposition
sent him and his earnings in opposite
directions.
All through his old age and sick
ness his daughter Lizzie faithfully at
tended to his wants and tenderly
nursed him with solicitude and de-
votion at once heroic and noble in the
last degree. At O'Clock OIL the even
ing OF New Years Day he passed
peacefully away. His funeral took
place from his residence last Thurs
day afternoon and was attended by
number of his old friends. Miss
Lizzie Riley has the sympathy of the
entire community in her bereavement.
May the green sod rest lightly over
his remains.
