4 Climbing Cow.

A COW owned by Abrams of Lake
View, did peculiar thing day OF
two ago. Somehow the bovine got
into Hobarts barn, and finding nc
hay in tie stalls, deliberately hoofed
it up a narrow stairway into the
loft, where the hay was plentiful.
The COW was disco gered enjoying
a bountiful repast, and several per
son, put in the rest of the day en-
deavoring to get Mrs. Cow out of the
loft, but at last accounts she was still
there, and it was finally decided to
keep her there till she got fat, and
then kill her for beef.

An Ancient River Bed.

Walter Thomas brought in several
samples of coarse gold last week OBJ
tanned from a gravel wash a short
distance north of the old wagon road
leading to Austin across the plain
east of town. The gravel wash is
about four miles east of the mouth of
Six-mile Canyon. The locator is
not positive whether the claims he
staked out are in Storey or Lyon
county. The largest piece of gold
exhibited is worth about 81 90.
The only drawback to working the
gravel at profit is that no water is
obtainable nearer than the Carson
river, which is about four miles south
of the gravel wash, except in an un-
usually moist Winter like the one
just ended, and then it is only avail
able Immediately after a snowfall
Thomas Is of the opinion that he
can haul the gravel to the river and
run it through sluices at a profit,
and for that purpose he is negotia-
ting for horse and cart. The
gravel wash shows every indication
that an ancient river flowed through
the ravine traversing the vast plain
at some remote period in the earths
history. Enterprise
