John 8. Mayhugh left yesterday
morning for Carson City to push his
claim for $500 for services as Secretary
of the Board of Regents of the State
University, or of the Committee to OBJ
tain donations to saiI institution, about
the time it was located st Elko. It will
require an Act of the Legislature to
liquidate the claim, and Mr.. Mayhugh's
business at the capital is to have such
an Act passed.
What service was performed by Bert
Wilkins, in the capture of the two In
dams, for which he was not paid? This
is a remark frequently made since tue
passage of the bill giving him $500.
We are inforned that an examination
Of tho Court records discloses the fact
that he was paid for bringing the In-
dams, captured about mile from Tus-
carora, to Elko. All such private claims
should be carefully scrutinized before
being provided for by an Act OF the
Legislature. II the claim is q valid
one it should be paid; but it is not just
clear where the $500 worth of service
came in.
Assemblyman Coryell has introduced
bill providing for a Superintendent OIL

one bet that it will not pass. There
seems 10 be o determination on the par
OF r. majority OF our Legislators to con
sign to igno.uiaiouS death any measure
intended to foster the public schools O.
the Stnte, or any portion Of it. There
is no hope that anything will be done
for the benefit of our public schools
during tho present session Of the Legis

Processes Of Lead Pencil Manu-
facture.

"Why is it," asked tho scribe. as he
looked timidly over the desk side Mt the
big manufacturer, "when you first begin
to sharpen lead pencil, that the lead
is so good and it sharpens so nicely, and
as you get nearer the other end, or the
rubber or metal tip, the lead gets worse
and worse."
"You only find that phenomenon in
ellis, answered the big manufacturer,
much moro suavely than tho scribe had
expected he would. "To find out why
IL is, let us see just how lead pencils are
made. The wood of n pencil, you know.
Is Is cedar, tho lead, as it is called, graph
ite: White wood is sometimes used, but
only for inferior grades. In general,
the quality of the wood can be deter
mined very largely by its color9 Tho
rcdderr, the better quality; the moro ycl-
low, the poorer. Our wood comes to lis
all from Florida-in slabs, each exactly
n pencils length and of six pencils
width. A machine makes six length
wise grooves in each of tho slabs, and
IN these grooves is the graphite laid.
On tho grooved and graphitcd slab is
glued another grooved slab, so closely
that the line of joining cannot be seen.
Now comes in the answer to your ques,
ton. This combination of graphite
and board must be cut into six pencil
shapes. 1t enn be done all ut once, or
in six separate cuttings. Mark tho
difference. If The machine of six saw
blades is used, Just after tho middle is
passed, tho tendency is for the part
already out to spring and bend to either
side. Parts of tho wood below are, in
consequence, tightly compressed, and
the graphite within softoncd or broken.
With the single saw blade all this is
avoided. OF course, using the single
saw blade, the cost is much increased.
And SO in the highpriced pencil is tho
lead the same all the way through.
"The shaping of the pencil. the maxi
ing it round or hcxagonnl, is done Mt tho
same time the slnbs nro sawed into their
parts. The better grades of pencils
then go through mn immense amount of
smoothing and finishing. The vnrnisll
is then put on, the pencil being forced
by machinery through fixed brushes wet
with it. This particular process is 70,
poated several times. Tho polishing
thereafter is done mainly by hand"
So saying, tho big manufacturer re-
turned to his desk and correspondence.

DETROIT, Mich, July 3o.-The retire.
ment of Rev. Samuel carp, to the Battle
Creek sanitarium is the cause of much
discussion here. The majority of the
people believe he Is insane, or, at best,
monomaniac. Others believe that the
reverend gentleman has been guilty of
gross wrong, and that his eccentricities
were assumed solely to aid him in secur-
ing immunity when the exposure
came.
Before leaving for Battle Creek DIR.

bodys business what he did with his
money, but he explained that he had in
dorsed heavily for his brother in Dan
vile, Pa, and that the brothers sudden
death had shipped the responsibility
upon his shoulders. Dr. Earp's brother

A European Hair Mart.

The demand for false hair at the pres
ent day is very great We cah get some
idea of the magnitude of the traffic from
the fact that the hair merchants of Lon.
don alone import five toiis of hair mn
nually, and that the Parisinn dealers
harvest upward of 100000 pounds of
hair year. 1t is mostly black hair,
and is collected in Brittany and tho
south of France. The market cannot
be supplied simply by chance clippings;
there must be moro ample sources and
regular seasons for obtaining the supply.
There nre itinerant dealers who pllr-
chase hair, paying for each head Of hnir
from one to five francs, necordiiig 10 its
weight and beauty, the weight ranging
from eleven to sixteen ounces. The
peasant girls are quite willing to part
with their hair, and will accept silks,
laces, cheap iewelry, ETC., with which
the traflickers nre well supplied. Tho
Inter attend tho fairs and merry mnk-
ihEs hs the best place to ply their voca-
ton, and the girls bring their hair to
market just MS they would peas, cab
bages, etc.
The girls stand in n ring waiting to
pJ oiiptil, Nihu IlHuUS
and their long hair combed out and
hanging to their waists. The dealer,
who is often man, but sometimes n
woman, ties up each crop of hair in II
wisp by itself and tosscs 1t into lnrgo
basket. Tho girls sacrifice some of
their vanity along with their hnir, but
it does not worry them long. They
want the money, fcol more comfortable,
and tho close lifting caps they wear
hide the loss. Then, tuo, will not tho
hair grow tSairi2
The hair is dressed and sorted in the
wholesale houses, and sold to the hair
workers Mt ton francs n pound. The
retail dealer, in turn, obtains good
profit, knowing that if one customer re
fuse to pay it another will readily buy.
Light hnir is almost exclusively Ger
man product. Tho dealers claim to be
abe to distinguish tho nationality of
hair, whether French or German, Eng
lish or Irish, Scotch or Welsh. Nay,
moro, thoy assert that they can name
the province in which the hair was
gathered = even between two districts of
Central France, though they may not
bo many miles apart. The difference is
40 very slight that the ordinary physi
ologist won'd not be able to detect any.

TERROR IN LAMAR COUNTY.

Rube and Jim Burroughs and Their
Band of Thieves Decline to Surrender
TO the sheriT-The Birmingham
Rifles on the Way to the Scene to
Help in the Arrest
BIRMINGHAM, July 30.-The sheriff of
Lamar county, Ala, mas telegraphed the
governor asking for company of state
troops to aid in the capture of "Rube"
Burroughs and his band of outlaws, who
are in a little cabin in the widest part of
the county and defy arrest They have
sent the sheriff word that they will never
surrender and will die shooting.
Their fortress is q strong one and can
be approached from only one direction.
Twenty detectives and special officers
employed by the Southern Express COM
pany and Illinois Central railroad COM
pany are with the sheriff Three dotec-
tiyes of this city have returned from
Lamar county with tho news that Bur-
roughs and his gang had given the olli-
GERS the slip, but later kilograms from
SuIligent and Amery, tho nearest tele-
graph Offices, say the outlaws have again
been located.
The people of the county are almost
afraid to stir from their homes so great
is tho terror of these noted outlaws. 1t
IS reported that Jim Burroughs, who
was supposed to have died in an Arkan-
sas prison, is with his brother Rube. 1t
is said he did not die but escaped from
prison by clover ruso about three years
ago.
Rube and Jim Burroughs robbed
train near TeXarkana, Ark securing 3d.
900 from the Southern Express company.
A detective followed them to the home
of their father i'll Lamar county and was
killed by them. They were afterward
captured in Montgomery, Ala, but Rube
escaped. 1t is now believed that he is
the man who robbed the train on tho
Illinois Central railroad in Mississippi
last winter. Two weeks ago he shot and
killed Postmaster Graves at Gum, Ala,
and since then officers have been hot on
his track. Rewards aggregating $4,000
have been offered for his capture.
Governor Seay has ordered tho Bir-
mingham Rifles to Lamar aounty to as
sist in tho capture of the outlaw and his
gang. The company was in camp at
Montgomery when the order was re-
ceived, but have just left for Lamar
county.

LOUISVILLE, July 29,-Reports just re.

his wife. The triad for this murder has
been postponed several times. Hall has
many friends and relatives. His brother,
of these friends, it is thought, assassin
ated Rose.

county government is under the control
of their enemies and they cannot get JUS

and killing some of the Hall crowd.

Il SHIP-BUILDING SYNDICATE.
Ready to Purchase Britain's Docks OF
Vancouver leland


SAN FRANCISCO, July 30.-The recent
arrival in this city of Theodore Cramp,
of the Philadelphia ship building firm,
has resulted in much speculation as to
his business on the coast.
With the manager OF Spreckels Broth
ers ship building interests Mr.. Cramp
has left for the north. 1t is said that the
gentlemen are to visit Esquimault yard,
on Vancouver Island. 1t is rumored
that the British government has come
to the conclusion that the docks are too
small for its purposes and Is willing to
sell.
Mr.. Cramp is reported to have organ
lied an eastern syndicate representing
$4,000, 900, which proposes to buy docks,
as Cramp is certain it will be a paying
investment Rumor fixes the purchase
price at about 81, ,500,0 900, and it is esti-
mated that the plant will represent a
value to the syndicate of S5,000,000 within
tho first two years. The syndicate is
said to comprise such ship-building firms
as William Cramp & Son, of Philadelphia;
Neate Il Levy, Harlan & Hollingsworth,
of Wilmington; Pusey q Jones, of Della
ware River; the Union Iron works, of
this city, and the Reaches.
