SutrO Tunnel Property.

The case of Frank J. Symmes
and others against the Union Trust
Company of New York and others
was argued before Judge Hawley in
the United States Circuit Court this
week at Carson.
The property of the Sutro Tunnel
Company was sold under a decree
of foreclosure to the Union Trust
Company in January in 1889, for
the sum of $1,325,000. The pres
ent action is one for setting aside
the decree of the foreclosure and
the confirmation of the sale under
it on the ground of fraud.
The complainants ask that the
Union Trust Company be declared
the trustee of the Sutro Tunnel
Company.
A great mass of evidence is being
reviewed and argument will proba-
bly, not be concluded for several
days to come.

Softly press the silken fringes
DER her eyes;
Where no more on earth shall sparkle
Sweet replies;
But in those clear depths shall never
Tears arise.
Gently clasp the snowy fingers
Ger the breast:
She hath need OF prayers no longe,
She doth rest
In the arms OF her Redeemer,
Fully best.
Close the tiny mouth, where dimples
Used to smile,
Whence sweet, ohildhke thoughts were
uttered
without guile;
Thou must miss her tender kisses
For awhile.
Smooth the hair about her forehead,
Calm and pure;
Thou for her wilt have no anguish
To endure;
She is saved, and of her gladness
Thou art sure.
Gaze beyond this hour of darkness
Sorrow night
To the realms where JOY endureth,
Ever bright;
There little angel soareth,
Clothed in light
Thou. ere long, shalt join thy darling
On that shore
Where all pain. and grief and parting
Shall be Ger;
There to dwell in love un1ying,
Evermore.

PROPOSED COLONIZATION.
What Could. and Probably viii BE
bone in Mason Valley IN the Near
FIXTURE.

Bone ia Mason talley IN the near
Future.
AS the TIMES has repeatedly
stated, Lyon County is section of
country that possesses wonderful
agricultural resources. There is
no reason why, when her people get
into the right track, she should not
support on her agricultural lands
as many people as are now in the
entire State.
In conversation with Mr.. Homer
Wilson this week we learned some
thing of plans that are contemplated
to make a thriving country of the
lower end of Mason Valley. Mr.
Wilson has lease of the old Gold
Hill ranch in the valley, which is
located few miles from Wabuska,
the point on the G. & G. railroad
where all supplies are transferred
for different points in the valley.
He, and others who are interested
with him, have great faith that ere
long they can put in operation a
project that will induce settlers to
locate in that vicinity and build up
prosperous country. They have
now under construction large lev
cling machine, which, when it ar
rives, will be put to work leveling
off several thousand acres of land
on the big ranch. When this work
has been completed the land will
be divided into S0-acre tracts and a
sufficient amount of water furnish
ed to irrigate each tract, and the
same placed on the market for sale.
If parties who wish to take one of
these tracts have not means to put
buildings on it, house will be put
on for them and they will be fur
nished with a team and farming
implements to start them in busi-
ness, and be given time on payment.
Those interested in the scheme also
contemplate the erection of another
creamery and pork packing estab-
lishment. This will give the set
tiers On the land a market for all
they can raise, and a good, thrifty
set of farmers can soon build up a
thriving community. In time this
would make of Wabuska quite a
busy little town. Other industries,
such as a steam Touring mill, a
starch factory, beet sugar factory,
and numerous other manufacturing
industries such as spring up around
thriving agricultural town would
! follow. There is no doubt that
with push and capital behind it
for starter any agricultural count
ry can become well settled and
prosperous. The products of the
soil are what the entire world has
to depend on, and there is no count
ry on the face of the earth that can
surpass that lying in Lyon county
in the way of production.
Mr.. Wilson predicts that the
time is near at hand when we shall
see the central point of population
in Lyon at a point on the c. Il c.
where Wabuska now stands. or near
it; that the county seat will be
there, and agricultural industries
take the lead. Should the present
stagnated condition Of things ex-
list in the way of mining, his pre-
dictious cannot come to pass too
soon to suit Us.

A Hint to Nevada Farmers.

A communication from Clarke
Irvine, of the Irvine Investment
Company of Mobile, Alabamba,
contains the following information
that may be of use to Nevada ranch
ers: II have often tried to call the
attention of some people in Nevada
to the fact that transverse bitches
across hillsides or even any gentle
declines will render the most barren
sands and rocky regions as fertile as
Eden, whenever there is rain or
melting SHOWS to fill the bitches, as
at Anvergne and Limossin, France,
and in Switzerland. The waters
percolating slowly from the bitches
fertilize all the lower regions more
and more. Yet it seems that no one
in Nevada pays any attention to
this method"

Luck Isl seeds.

II didn't have very good luck with
my seeds last year" a farmer was
heard to say. This gives rise to the
question: How many poor crops
can be attributed to "luck" in the
selection of seeds? Buying seeds
is an important factor in farming
and should receive the careful judg-
ment and consideration of the farm
er. 1t is almost, always impossible
to distinguish the good from the bad
in seeds by sight, and the only in
fallible guide for the planter is the
reliability of the scotsman. D. NJ.
Ferry & Co, of Detroit, Mich, have
been for many years the leading seed
house of this country, and their re-
liability is unquestioned. They is

Charlton Killed Them.

The horses that died on Garibal-
dis ranch last week were not poi
soned, it seems, but died of disease
called Charlton" This fact was
ascertained by sending the stomach
and liver of one of the dead animals
to Reno for examination.
Charlton is a disease that is CON
tracted by horses eating hay from
or pasturing on swampy, low land.
1t affects the blood of the animals
and usually is contracted by the
healthier ones first. 1t is under,
stood that several horses have died
in Carson Valley of the same dis
ease. The disease is infectious, and
where animals have died from it
the greatest care has to be used to
keep others from contracting it.

From the st. Nicholas.

Monkeys as a rule-certainly as we In

for good manners. beauty or tidiness. and
surely not for elegance or grace. Yet now
We have a new species to consider: a mon
key possessed Of all these good qualities.
yet playful and active as any Of its frisky
kindred For its Introduction we are In
debted to DR.. Abbott Of Philadelphia, who
discovered it recently at Mount Kilima-
Marc. in the eastern part OF equatorial
Africa, and brought back to America fine
specimens. Not only are these monkeys
neat quiet and well behaved. but they are
among the most beautiful Of animals, and
they are said to take the greatest care not
to soil or to inJure the beautiful coat Of
long hair with which they are adorned.
The drapery OF silky. silvery-white hair
begins at the shoulders, extends along the
sides Of the body, and meets over the lower
part Of the back. When the animal springs
swiftly from one bough to another. the
floating of this beautiful mantle gives ii
the appearance Of being winged. The chin.
throat, temples, sides Of the head, and a
rest Of the body is covered with soft, glossy.
jet black fur. The tail, which IL unrivaled
by that Of any monkey in the world, is
frtnged with pure white hair that glistens

only specimens that have ever been seen
