on Foot In Eastern Europe.
There is q movement on foot In east
ern Europe TO cut canal between the
Black and Caspian seas; also to recon.
meet the Dead sea with the Mediter.
fanesn. The Dead sea Is nothing moro
than q small but very old salt lake now
in an advanced state OF evaporation.
It lies several feet below the level Of
the Mediterranean, just as the Caspian
lies many feet below the level of the
Black sen. In both cases the surface
must once have been continuous. This
being the case, 1t is clear that, the Cas-
plan and the Dead seas have both evap-
GRATED to an enormous extent While
all the surroundings prove that evap-
orntion has been the prime cause of the
shrinkage Of the two bodies last men
toned, there is one remarkable fact
Which deserves particular attention in
this connection; While the surface of
the Caspian h1s fallen to a point only
eighty-five feet below the level of the
Black sea, the Dead sea has shrunk to
the enormous depth Of twelve hundred
and ninety-two feet below the Mediter-
ranean! am not informed as to what
the results would be If q canal should
be dug between the Caspian and the
Black seas, but it Is said that connec-
ton between the Mediterranean and
the Dead seas would. drown out the
whole valley Of the Jordan, join the
last-named sea to the sea Of Galilee and
otherwise contribute to the complete
change OF Scriptural geography.

How bho Was Rescued From q HOr-
rible Danger.
Little Leone, the 17-months-old
daughter of Mr.. and Mrs. Will Wouri-
som, met with an accident Sunday after
noon which might have resulted fatally.
The baby, with her parents, was spend
ing the day at 1904 Court street, and
while playing in the yard suddenly fell
into the cesspool before her mother, who
was near, could prevent it.
Assistance was quickly called and the
boards removed, and Mr.. G. A. Strick-
land descended. and rescued the little
one from her uncomfortable and GER
tainly ill-smelling position. She was
unhurt. but the escape seems almost
miraculous.

the five eupervisorial districts of the
county, and selected seven delegates
from each district to the state conven-
ton. The list as announced to the con-
ventlon when it reassembled was as fol-
lows:
First district-Geo. s. Patton, J. A.
Driftill, H. B. Westerman, R. B. Nathan,
w. K. Dodson, L. G. Torrance, Webster

P. Snyder. Thos. McCafrey, D. Innes.
A contest is likely to arise in the Sec
ond district. At the district meeting, j.
Marion Brooks was elected. When the
convention reassembled, however, three
delegates announced that they wished
to change their votes from Brooks to
John w. Webber. Chairman Masters
ruled that they could do 80 if the con-
vention did not object. Tie changes
were made, and Mr.. Webber was placed
on the list of delegates. Mr.. Brooks
claims that the district meeting having
adjourned, and many convention dele
gates being absent, the changes could
not be made, and that he will contest
the matter.
After passing the usual votes of thanks
the convention adjourned sine die.

The Prince and Pauper.

A large audience greeted George
Cooper last evening at the Opera
House. She played the dual role Of
the Prince and the Pauper with a
conception of the requirements Of
these characters that was something
marvellous.
Indeed it may be said that she
played three separate characters.
There was the prince in rags smart
ing under the indignities put upon
him, and knowing in his own heart
that he ought to be attired III the
royal purple of the English throne,
a part requiring an entirely different
line of acting than the Prince in the
garb of royalty, with all England at
his feet and then there was the base
born Tom CAVITY, the child of the
London slums.
To see nine year old girl in a
part requiring these triple obligations
to the audience, one would naturally
say that she would have to stagger
through them. Not so; she went
through the play, changing from one
mood to another with no apparent
effort and at all times showed sub
tie knowledge of the delicate shad-
ings necessary to make each role tell.
The unknown Prince was played
with a dignity that in spite Of all,
was apparent through the rags which
had covered Tom CAVITY, and this
was so well acted that when the time
came to grasp the scepter, there was
a regal trod and air that was fore
Swallowed in the early part of the
play.
To attempt to analyse such acting
rendered by child who plays with
her dolls and romps and skylarks off
the stage just as other children do.
is like trying to tell how Blind Tom
used to play Mozart's music at a
hearing.
As well as she has been able to
charm the public with Fauntleroy it
is mere child's play to the good act
ing she does IN Prince and Pauper.

PRIZE POTATOES

and vegetable display along with the
hay and grain.
To the casual observer it would
seem hard to segregate one exhibit
from another but it will be seen on
close inspection that each group IS
segregated and separately arranged.
On entering, the first display on the
right is Nevada honey from Judge
Hawthorne of Carson, and E. A.
Moore of Reno. The rich substance
is trickliug down in drops % the
board holding it, and every dainty
little maiden sweetens the tip Of her
finger, puts it to her mouth and
smacks her lips in satisfaction.
Next is a fragrant doral display
from Geise, the Reno florist, and an
assortment of plants and shrubs from
the Sunnyside nursery, operated by
NJ. A. Starting. The foliage is fresh
and green, with no evidence OF dis
ease, and shows how much material
can be produced in Nevada for land
scape gardening.
The next is a sulphur and blue
stone exhibit, the former from Alex
Wise of Humboldt county, and the
latter from the Morgan Mill acid
works in Empire.
Now comes square table filled
with handsome specimens from the
State Curator, Orvis Ring, and it is
in itself an interesting study. Valu>
able minerals and petrifactions, to-
gether with plaster casts of extinct
reptiles and precious formations from
various parts Of the globe. There is
one piece of ore from the Manhattan
mine worth $500. This table is
something of hangout for the old
miners who wander in an out.
George Vonderhyde has tastefully
arranged set of harness and shows
skill in the making.
Up against the wall little further
on is a whole stack OF -four and
oat meal from the Riverside Mills.
If any housewife wants to tickle her
husbands palate let her buy this
same brand and make bread for him.
The wheat was grown in Nevada, the |
-four was made here, and this is the
place to eat it.

The attendants are extremely
courteous to. visitors and the young

questions for the enlightenment of
people who take interest in such
things.
The lower floor is flied with pro-
ducts OF the farm and the mechanic

The DarktOWn Race.

An interesting feature Of today's
races will be the 'Darktown Race,
and if the cards indicate anything ii
is to be red hot. The plan is to allow
the colored gentlemen associated with
the track to enter into race of 3-e
of mile and the booksellers use the
rider name instead of the name OF
the horse None Of the riders know
what horse is to be assigned then
and the effect is interesting. Thus it
will be seen that fast animal under
light regular jocky might become
very slow and bad hammered under a
heavy impractical coon. In Reno
similar race to this brought out a
great deal of fun for the booksellers
who have in their employ sa darkey
by the name of Monroe Johnson and
he insisted upon entering. When
the race was called Monroe jumped
on the track decked out in two but>
ton cutaway suit Of pink undercloth-
ing, with green sash, blue hat and a
pair of russell Congress gaitars. He
sailed up to the judges stand and
bent low in obeysance to these dis
tinguished gentlemen. Meanwhile
Dave Eisman and ]. EasterbrJok had
written and filed protest with them,
the contents being to the effect that
one Monroe johnson who had repre-
sented himself to be a Negro was not
even a Mulatto but thoroughbred
japanese. When the protest was
read to him his face (black as the
wings of night dipped in tar) assumed
a serious expression and he replied:
