DENVER, Coly., May 15.-William H.
Mygatt. banker and real estate dealer,
assigned today. His assets are given at
$59l, $50 and liabilities at $507 7,3s9. His

a conservative business man assured him
his assets were really worth more than
the statement filed. As the statement
stands he will pay out and have mar

were especially discriminating against
western paper. Banks with which he

MORE PROFITABLE THAN WHEAT.

Two carloads of hogs have been
received at Lovelock during the week.
The first consignment was from Still
water to w. G. Pitt, the gross weight
of the animals being V tons. Later
in the week Hi Stoker received l41
head from w. T. Smith, Elko.
This is the beginning of u change
from the methods of farming hereto-
fore in vogue on the Big Meadows.
Little attention has been paid to any
thing other than hay and wheat, and
that hay and wheat were disposed of
at the ruling market price. BY the in
PRODUCTION of swine, to be fatten ed on
the wheat stubble and residium Of
assorted potatoes, Lovelock makes her
debut as a producer of something
more than mere hay and grain. Wheat
is selling for $1S To $3.50 a ton and
bacon and hams from 14c to Zoe per
pound. Wheat in pork, Is therefore,
more valuable than wheat in Calcutta
sacks. Likewise, would hay be more
profitable fed Il mich cows and sold
NJ cheese and butter from a creamery,
than fed from the stack at $3.50 per
ton. Even wheat fed to chickens will
bring much better return than if sold
for shipment.
Every month, wen the small
population Nevada contains to-day,
sees the importing of thousands OF
dollars worth Of ham and bacon, all OF
which might be kept at home if the
proper spirit of enterprise pervaded
our homes.
But let us hope hat this invoice
will do much toward convincing the
farmers Of this section the profit in
raising and fattening swine and sell
ling the cured product.-New Era.

A Sad Death.
Antelope Herald.

Mr.. A. II. Bills, an honest. industrious
citizen of the John Day, was drowned near
Clarno's ferry last Tuesday, Both ult. On
account of the melting snow and heavy
rains in the mountains, the river was un-
usually high. Tuesday morning Mr.. Bills
and his 20.year.old son came over the river
to get some young trees from Duncan Nc
Rae, and on tEeir return when they were In
the middle of the river the boat capslzed
and they both went under. They arose and
swan toward the shore. The boy, with
great difficulty. gained the bank In safety
and the father was almost to the shore.
when heavy tide came and carried him
back amongst the rough waves, there to
perish. Men have been dragging the river
in search of his body ever since, but up to
the time of going TO press their efforts have
been fruitless.
Mr.. Bills, with his wife, four sons and
three daughters, came up from the VILLAIN
cite valley last October, and after looking
oyer the country, took up a homestead in
Gillian county on the John Day. He was
an honest, industrious, hard. working man.
and was striving hard to make living and
home for himself and family. His heart.
broken family has the deepest sympathy

A Bourbon exchange says: "No
good Democrat can bring himself to
believe that Cleveland meant what he
said when he ordered the White House
closed to all ofice-seekers" 1t Is un-
doubtedly great disappointment to
the rank and file that the president
whom they elected last November
should not pigeonhole national matters
Of vital Importance until he has re-
moved all Republican Office holders
and filed their places with Democrats.
This was the reason they voted for
hlm, and to them it Is q lasting
shame that the doors of the White
House are closed against their clam
orings. What deplorable state of
affairs the Democrats. who have
supported the "time-honored princi-
Piles" through good and ill report. dur
ing the days of secession as we'll as in
times of profound peace, have wit
messed during the past few months.

Shot and Killed.

Harry Cupper, the oldest son of 81. A.
Cupper, of Monument, was accidentally
shot and killed Wednesday afternoon about
one hour before sunset by his brothe., Fred
Cupper. The facts concerning the affair as
near as the Eagle can learn, are as follows:
Wednesday afternoon the two brothers,
each IN possession of gun. started out to
kill cougar that had been committing dep.
relations IN the vicinity. The two boys
separated In order that they would make
sure of securing the animal in case it was
out of its lair on that afternoon, and wand
cred about through the underground,
neither haying any knowledge of the others
whereabouts. Fred, the Younger of the
two brothers, imagined he saw a wildcat
or cougar wandering slowly on its accus-
toned trail through the brush or thicket.
With direct aim, he fired, but instead of
capturing the much sought for sheep camp
offender, his brother. Harry, fell victim,
dying almost instantly.
The particulars farther than stated above,
could not be ascertained for this Issue.
The family is well known in this portion OF
the county. Their many friends tender
their sympathy during the present dark
hours of sadness and aff1Iction.
