Heavy Snowfall.

A resident of mile canyon says
the snow has fallen to greater depth
in Flowery this Winter than in the
past 20 years. The depth on the
Como range is above eight feet md
on the summit OF the Sierras it is
nearly % feot in depth. In the Win
ter Of 1868 tho total depth at the lat
ter point was 81 feet, and the outlook
is favorable that fall of that depth
will be recorded this Winter.
"What is the greatest depth Of
snow recorded on the Comstock?" was
the question fired at a veteran resi-
don't on Christmas day by q visitor
from the Atlantic side. Of the CONT
nent. II cannot truthfuily answer
that query, but have seen depth
of twenty-five feet on G street," re-
piled the veteran. A depth of five
feet is the heaviest snowfall recorded
on the Comstock. Virginia Chron-

Still 1t Shows.

Tho storm still continues, and while
it insures bountiful supply of water
for the coming season it is hard on
stock which has to depend on the
range for subsistence. Owing to the
great drouth OF the past season feed
was necessarily short and range cat
tie, as genel al rule, were poor at the
commencement of the Winter. The
deep snow and cold weather of the
past few days will no doubt cause
many poor COW to give up the strug-
gle. We are informed that quite q
number of cattle are to be found on
the line of the railroad between here
and Halleck, and IL is said that sever
al have been killed by passing trains.
There is certainly no cause to regret
the heavy snow fall, for although it
may occasion great loss Of stock it in
sures water for agriculture and album
dance of range feed for the coming
year, which in the end will compen-
safe for the losses which may be sus-
tanned during the Winter, and stock
men will find themselves in much bet
tor condition than they would have
been had the Winter proved open
and mild, for in that case stock which
might have survived would necessa-
rily have persisted for food and water
the coming Summer. It continues to
snow, and we hail it as a bonanza for
Nevada.

A Beneficial Decision.

The recent decision Of the San
Francisco Court in the suit Of the
Kentuck stockholders against Gov. G.
@. Stevenson places the Governor in
an unenviable position. He must
make an accounting to the stockhold-
ers Of the ores taken from the mine
while he was enjoying the lease which
has become 80 famous. It begins to
look as if there were some laws In
connection with mines which the ma
nipulators are bound TO respect.
The popular idea regarding mining
in this State is that the insiders have
it all their own way, and that they
take the neat out of tho egg while
the others have the shell. II the Gov
ernor is compelled to make restitn-
ton 1t will establish precedent,

ligan's Death on the Erie.
Coroner Brackner held an inquest last
night to ascertain who is responsible for
the death of David Nelligan, the ten-year-
old boy who was killed at the Grove street
crossing of the Erie Railway, April s, by a
locomotive.
Samuel Summerville, of No. 1856 Fifth
street, the first witness, was an employee
of the Erie Railroad Company He said he
saw the boy stoOp under the gate and
start to run across the track, When he
was in the middle of the last bound track
the locomotive struck him and carried
him about one hundred feet. The witness
helped to carry him TO the workhouse,
from which place he was taken to the
hospital The gates were down.
''What do you call a gate?" asked Juror
"What they have at the crossing" was
@Weli, / call those things poles" re-
piled the juror
II call 'em gates" retorted the witness.
Thomas Shea, switchman, testified
that he saw the boy run across the track
while the gates were down, The locomo-
tive was going at rate of between twelve
and fifteen miles an hour.
Policeman King, of the Second precinct,
corroborated what the other witnesses
testified to and said he thought the bars
used now for gates were not as efficient as
the old gates.

Except this bit Of comedy, the session
was of the most business like character.
Speaker Hudspeth insisted on keeping the
members hard at work, and the result was
that great progress was made toward dis
posing of the great pile of bills on his desk.
About twenty bills were passed. There
are now something like twenty-five
House bills awaiting action and
this number will be more than
doubled when the various COM
mittees make their reports on Monday
evening. In addition there are some forty
Senate bills to be acted upon. twill thus
be seen that the House will be obliged to
work steadily on Monday and hold a night

of reaching final adjournment next
Wednesday is to be carried out.

killing of dogs without collars or muzzles

suffering from the killing of sheep by
yagrant dogs. Assemblyman Marsh was

named Grouse, and as he does not want
Grouse slain most of the members voted
against the bill McDermit, however,

State Prison met with the opposition OF
Assemblyman Cole, who claimed that 1t
should be amended so as to exclude from
its provisions persons convicted of crimes
of the more serious grade. An amend
ment to this effect was adopted and the
bill was ordered to third reading. The bill
permitting prisoners in county jails to be
employed at cooking, washing and other
light work was passed.
Thefollowing Senate bills were passed.

instruction to employ an assistant at
