Crossing His Rees.

There is quite a number of people
around Dayton who are engaged in
raising honey on a small scale, and
the honey raised hereabouts is as
delicious an article as we have ever
tasted. But this season the bees
have not been quite as busy as usu-
al, probably owing to the cold and
backward Spring. r. A. Cooke,
who is authority on all bee matters,
says that owing to the above state
of affairs the bees will have to put
in double shifts from this time on
to get their crop up before next
Fall, and he has sent back to Indi-
ana for a number of lightning bugs
which he viii cross with his bees
for the purpose of getting a breed
that can work both by night and
by day. There is another advant-
age to these lightning-bug-bees and
that is that the wax manufactured
by them has a large enough per-
centage of phosphorus in it to create
quite an illumination, and candles
made from such wax last a great
while.

Found Dead.

H. Pugh, native of Germany,
aged 46 years, was found dead in
his room at the Palace Hotel at
Napa, CAL, on the afternoon of May
18th. AT a late hour the night be-
fore he entered the hotel, took a
drink at the bar, and after visiting
the room of an acquaintance, he
went to his own room about two
o'clock in the morning. When
found he lay Gu the floor as though
he had dropped dead. He was a
heavy drinker, and it is said he
threatened to commit suicide, but
it is not believed that he did. Mr.
Pugh was for many years clerk al
the Arlington House in Carson, and
was well known and liked by many
people in this vicinity.

Going TO California.

Some weeks ago we stated that
Ed. Swift had taken the contract
to haul lumber for the Diamond
Springs Lumber Company to the
railroad in Placer county, Califor-
MIA. We were mistaken about the
matter, as Johnny Damon, of this
place, has the contract, and will
leave here about the first of next
month, accompanied by G. P. Ran
dali, c. o. Damon, Gale Bristol,
formerly of Wabuska, and possibly
one or two more parties from this
place. The party will 60 overland
with the teams and wagons. 1t is
calculated that there will be about
five months hauling in the season.
We believe that none of the parties
will take their fanatics with them
on the first trip.

The Weather.

The climate of Western Nevada
is, without a doubt, changing. The
oldest residents in this county do
not recollect of a Spring equal to the
present one for rain. Hardly a
week has passed without there be-
ing one or more quite heavy show
ers, and farmers and gardeners
have had to do but very little irri-
eating SO far. This week we have
had a shower every day. Thurs
day it rained quite heavily, the
wind veered around to the North
and it became quite cold. Snow
fell on the Como range of mount
aims as low down as Fiddler's Green,
and parties in from Smith Valley
say there was quite a fall of snow
on the other side of the range. If
there was any assurance of con-
tinuance of such weather it would
not be long before every acre of
desert ground in the State would be
taken up and the irrigation question
would be settled for all time.

Probably Lost ON the Desert.

The Candelaria Chloride Belt says:
Charles Ferrero left here May 9th
on horseback for Grantsville. He
was accompanied by another man.
Dan O'Keefe, while returning from
Cloverdale last week, claims to have
seen a saddle, bride and sack on a
fiat twenty miles from Candelaria,
which he is positive belonged to
Ferrero. Some of Ferrero's friends
believe that he may have got on the
wrong road and wondered off on
the desert and persisted. Nothing
was seen of his horse.

went to Reno, where the marriage
knot was tied by Judge Linn. Mr.

they have returned to Virginia,

Bound for IdaisO.

DR.. A. Friedline and his wife

arrived in Dayton the first of this
week and have been visiting old
acquaintance here since. The DR..
and his family are on their way,
overland, to Idaho, where he in
tends to locate and practice dentist
ry. He says that the Bishop Greek
country is good, but that it is too
slow a place to make money in very
rapidly. He was up through the
Idaho country year or SO ago,
and believes it to be the best State
in the Union to immigrate to.

Reedless ssranes.

The hardest varieties of grapes
seem to thrive well in Nevada, and
it would not surprise us to see some
fine vineyards in the State in the
course of a few years. Experience
has shown that the Isabella and
Catawba grapes do well in this vi
cinity. Grape plants, rooted, can
be purchased in California at rea,
sonable rates, and they will bear
a year earlier than vines from the
cuttings. In setting out cuttings,
if you desire to raise seedless grapes,
you should always plant them with
the buds down.

w iliIner,

Mrs. G. H. Legg desires to an
nounce to the public that she has a
large and well selected stock OF
Spring and Summer hats and bon
nets at her residence on Main street,
and also to state that she is con-
stantly receiving the latest styles
in all kinds of millinery goods.
She also keeps for sale all kinds OF
cosmetics for identifying the skin.
Mrs. Lettie Bovard is Mrs. Legg's
agent in Mason Valley, and she al
so has a fine stock of ladies goods
at her store at Greenfield. There
is no necessity for ladies in this
county to send to New York or
Paris for things of this kind for
they can get later styles and pur-
chase just as cheaply of either Of
the above named ladies.

SILVER CITY.
Revival of Mining Since Litigation
Has Ended-A Prosperous Outlook.

Has Ended-A Prosperous Outlook.
Since litigation over mining prop
erty in the little camp of Silver
City had ceased, and all the dis
putes been settled, or nearly so, the
camp has put on quite lively APP
pearance, and there are now quite
a number of men employed in the
mines.
There is not an idle man in the
camp.
The BENEFITS Bros. are still work
ing on the Vivian and taking out
some fair ore.
There is a report that the North
ern Belle mine. owned by Heating,
Zadig and others, will soon be
started up.
The Haywood is still working a
small force of men but is not pro-
ducing much pay ore just at pres
ent. The prospect for finding
another bonanza is said to be good,
however.
A. A. Pollard when not crushing
custom ore in his mill is working
ore from the second-class dump of
the Oest mine. This rock is low
grade but pays for the owner of a
mill to work.
There was recently some talk OF
resuming operations in the Dayton
above the 200-foot level, but it was
found that the water was very close
to the surface, and nothing will be
done in the mine at present.
Boston and Lester, owners of the
Great Republic mine, have recently
struck a small ledge of very rich
gold ore in their mine. They are
now taking out some ore that as
says way up into the hundreds.
The Goodman mine has been
shut nown for the timebeing owing
to the large amount of water en-
countered in running the tunnel.
The company is contemplating put
ting in a pump shortly and resum-
ing operations.
The Oest mine now employs in
the neighborhood of twenty men.
1t is reported that there are a coup
lie of chimneys of good ore in sight
in the mine, but there is considera-
BILE work to do to get the mine in
shape after it has stood idle so
long.
The sheet and pillow-case party
given on the evening of the 18th
was largely attended. Quite num-
Der of young folks from Dayton
were present, and Empire, Gold
Hill and Virginia were well repre-
scented. The party was given by
the ladies for the purpose Of raising
money to build fence around the
cemetery. 1t was Il success finan-
cially and socially.

About fruit.

Every year we hear it said by
old moss-backs that Nevada is not
a fit place in which to raise fruit
on account of the late frosts, which
come as late in the season as the
last of June. This scribe has been
in Dayton for the past ten years,
and only twice during that time
has the fruit crop in Lyon county
been injured to any great extent by
frost. One season the entire crop
was killed, and at another time the
half of crop only was raised.
This makes the average loss only
one in five, and we think there is
not State in the Union that will
show better average. When you
plant trees see that they are fruit
trees, mostly. This county may
be a more favorable locality for
fruit than other portions of the
State, but we believe that it will do
we'll in any of Nevada's vallies.
