Frightful Shipwrecks.

Stsunch ships strike and founder, the fierce
winds and mountainous waves sweep noble
mariners hearts of oak to shipwreck and to

A Queer Case.

Some weeks ago it was discover.
ed that accounts in the Ormsby
County Sherifirs Office did not bal
ance, there being a shortage Of
something over $1,000. Upon this
discovery being made, Pete Taylor,
Sheriff Botsford's deputy, was sus-
pected of embezzlement and sus-
pended from his position. Later
on he was arrested and charged
with the crime. His case came
before the Carson grand jury this
week and that body ignored the
charges against him. 1t is suppos-
ed that the money is really missing,
and the question now to be solved
IS, who got away with it? Those
connected with the Sheriff's office
In Ormsby will please not all an
swer at once. The matter should
be looked into, especially for Tay-
lor's sake.

Last Thursday night about nine
o'clock a wild looking man rushed
by our Office seeking some one to
help him get a man out of his
house.
The man who was seeking assist
ance was shoemaker Feig, who had
gone to his cabin to retire and had
been unable to get in, the reason
being, he supposed, that some per-
son was in the cabin holding the
door and bent on robbery.
1t did not take Feig long to sum-
mons the Sheriff and his deputy,
while a TIMES reporter guarded the
house to see that the man" did
not get away.
Sheriff Donnelly bravely lit a
match while deputy Dreyfuss stood
I by with club and handouts, ready
to down the burglar" and shackle
him, but when the house was enter
ed the business end of Eugene
Vests donkey was encountered.
Some of the boys had driven the
animal into Feig's cabin to have a
joke on the shoemaker, and it turn
ed out to be joke on several part
les.
Feig now has detectives employ
ed to find out who perpetrated the
joke, and West swears vengeance
against the persons who stole his
donkey.

The MiaStFels.

Last Tuesday evening, as per an
nouncement, the Silver City min
strel troupe appeared at the Odd
Fellows Hall at this place. The
hall was well filled, and the audience
was pleased beyond expectation by
the entertainment given. The per-
Torrance was a good one, each
member making creditable APP
pearance, and Ed. c. Murphy max
ing up for all that was lacking,
The show occupied three hours and
half and then did not include all
acts on the bills. M. F. Angel, as
the human corkscrew, did an act
that but few professionals can per-
form. Ellsworth in his club-swing-
ing was good; Watson, as a clog
dancer, needs a little more practice
Prof Baker is all right; and Ed.
Murphy is whole team; and Bob
Farrell, in his own recitation, was
good and brought down the house.
The closing piece, entitled "Justice
in an Arkansaw Court" was i'm
mense, and all who took part ac-
quilted themselves nobly, and the
audience was kept in continual
gale of merriment. After the show
a social dance was given for an hour
or two, the music being furnished
by Mrs. Frett, on the organ, and
Mr.. Dyer, on the violin, and John
ny Murphy, on the violincello. 1t
was very good, and the dancers en-
joyed themselves hugely. Come
again, neighbors.

On Friday of last week about
dozen of the members of River
Lodge No. 6 visited Anchor Lodge
No. II, A. o. U. W., at Greenfield
and assisted by D. D. G. M. W.,
Lothrop, installed the following Of
ficers of Anchor Lodge: P. M. W.,
B. H. Reymers; M. W., John G.
Young; Foreman, J. s. Craig; Over
seer, Jas. West; Recorder, G. I.
Leavitt; Financier, A. J. Littell;
Receiver, Chas. Martin; Guide, C.
Ross; o. W., Alex. Mcleod.
Immediately after the installa-
ton ceremonies Recorder Leavitt
and Financier Littell were request
ed to present themselves before the
altar, where, in a neat little speech
Brother Craig, ON behalf of the
Lodge, presented each of them
with jewels properly inscribed, as
a token of the esteem in which
they are held by their brethren.
After the installation dancing be-
gan and royal time was had.
1t was though at one time that
brother Donnelly would locate in
the valley. Brother Hepworth was
also delighted with the hospitality
of the people, but found the walk
ing bad, and both finally weakened
and returned.

Great Guns.

One of the big guns designed for
the cruiser Monterey passed through
Reno Wednesday morning. Thous-
ands of people have visited this
gun when it has stopped at stations
on the way out here from the East,
and at Reno over one thousand peo-
pie were at the depot to look at it.
The weight of the gun, according to
the way-bill, is 102,410 pounds, and
is carried on a fat-car, constructed
entirely of iron and steel, which
weighs 100000 pounds. The gun
was made at the Government gun
factory at Washington and is con-
signed to the Union Iron Works,
San Francico. 1t represents the
greatest achievement in gun making
ever undertaken for the United
States Navy. The gun is SO feet
long and will hurl a projectile
weighing $50 pounds. The propul-
sive power of this tremendous mis-
sile is furnished by charge of 43O
pounds of brown powder; the veloc-
ity is 1,941 feet per second. The
Monterey is to be equipped with
two of these guns, the other one
being already constructed, and to be
shipped as soon as the car can be
returned.

Farm Facts and Fancies.

The cheapest foods, such as grass
clover and vegetables, make the best
pork, for it makes lean, not grossly
fat pork. The latter is happily 60
ing out of fashion.
A poultry journal advises begin
ners in embarrassing not to expect
to get rich on a few dozen fowls. II
the investment is doubled every
year the business may be regarded
as profitable.
The mich COW will need some
thing besides corn meal this Winter
If you have neither ensilage MOI
roots, bran and oats should be fed
and the animal will respond hand
somely to the gift of oil-meal.
From experiments made with
blue grass by the Iowa experiment
station it appears that this grass is
richer in albuminoids and crude
protein than timothy, red top, or
chard grass or low meadow hay.
A COW that jumps fences needs
attention, but not so much in the
way of pokes, binders, knee bands,
etc, as plenty of food. Cows don't
jump fences just to show their skill,
as boys do when they stand on their
heads the day after a circus leaves
town.

Pruning Time.

To farmers who have orchards
and desire to keep their trees in
good condition, we will state that
it is time to do pruning. If you
have not begun this work you
should commence at once, and keep
at it until it is finished. High
trimming for trees is not preferred
by orchardists, and as no two trees
are exactly alike you will have to
use your judgment about each tree.
For apricots, peaches and .prunes,
the first years pruning, or at one
year after planting, trees should
be cut back pretty well. You will
lose a little fruit the first years
bearing, but you will have better
tree and a better bearer thereafter.
There should be little trimming
or pruning each year, leaving no
limbs that cross so as to chafe each
other, and opening enough among
the branches for good light and air
for circulation. Your trees, well
cared for, will bring you in a good
profit and make your farm and the
community look much more thrifty
and inviting.

Library Removed.

The Helping Hand library, that
has had its place in the Court
House for some time past, has been
divided and only the Juvenile books
left for the young folks at the Court
House. The other part of the Ii
brary has been placed in ]. A. Bon
hams store on Pike street, where it
will be much handler to get the
books and where somebody will be
in attendance on the library at all
times during the week. Persons
over Is years of age can procure a
card for 81 which will entitle them
to take books from either portion
of the library for one year. This
move is a good one.
