The simonds Steam Wagon.

On account OF electric and cable
traction, not to mention the more
humble bicycle, the tendency of the
present day is that the horse must go,
must go metaphorically for his days of
la Dor seem nearly passed. In the fur
theraDce of this view, we illustrate a
steam road wagon in which steam is
to do his work on country roads and
city streets, something which has been
for many years one of the foremost
aims of the inventor.
The wagon was invented and patent
ed by Mr. c. NJ Simonds of Lynn,
Mass. and on four bicycle wheels
with rubber tires is placed the body
and machinery of the wagon. The
machinery consists of steam boiler
of the porcupine type, built to carry
100 pounds of steam to the square
inch. Small as it is. it has % feet Of
heating surface. A two cylinder
vertical engine works the main shaft.
the two cranks of which are set at an
angle Of 90 degrees with each other,
SO that there shall be no dead point.
The main shaft carries sprocket
wheel which is connected by chain
with a sprocket wheelon the left hand
rear wheel OF the wagon. AS the en-
CINE runs at a high speed, the sprocket
on he wheel is of much larger size
than the other, so as to reduce the
speed. The total weight of the vehicle
is 437 pounds The front wheels are
SO inches in diane ter, the rear ones As
inches. They are rubber tired. Two
pumps are employees; one feeds the
boiler, the other drives the air blast
through the naptha. Under the boiler
are five burners, arranged SO that
they can be used singly if desired.
Five gallons of naptha, enough to run
the wagon 100 miles, are carried.

"Dick" watkins Character.

When old Mrs. Eggleston was
found murdered in her home
in Antelope Valley some weeks
ago, suspicion pointed to R.
A. Watkins as the perpetrator of
the crime. The newspapers made
note to this effect. In some man.
ner suspicion has been shifted from
Watkins to Mrs. Strickland, a
neighbor of Mrs. Eggleston. She
was known to have quarreled with
Mrs. Eggleston on several occasions
but over matters of no serious ma
ture She had no object in having
Mrs. Eggleston out of the way; 9th
er parties had, as was shown in the
account of the murder as published
in the TINES. Some of Watkins
friends are now giving his history
as an Indian fighter and singing
his praises as church member and
religious exhorter. He may be all
this, but if his Indian record was
such brilliant one, it is strange
that his praises have so long been
left unsung. What is known of
Watkins record in this section by
old residents is not to his credit.
The shooting OF the Young man by
Watkins near old Fort Churchill,
was looked upon as cold blooded
murder, notwithstand it was claim
ed by Watkins that the boy had
stolen a horse from him. The real
trouble is said to have been about
a piece of land Watkins wanted to
take away from the young fellow.
Watkins made him get on his knees
and look up the barrel of the gun
when he shot him. This happened
in 1860, when the country was new
and the killing of man was al
most an everyday occurrence, and
but little attention was paid to the
matter as the young man was a
stranger without friends. Dick"
Watkins was looked npon as hard
character in this section in the six
ties.

Gates, the chicken raiser, of this
place, is buying old horses, Indian
ponies, and wild broncos to kill and
feed to his chickens. He skins the
animals, boils the meat so that it
falls from the bones, grinds the
bones up in machine, and thus
utilities the whole carcass. In
Churchill county they have been
feeding horses to hogs for some time.
There is nothing about a horse that
is not as clean as beef. In fact,
in France the greater portion of
meat eaten by the people is horse
meat. II is fact that meat of any
kind is good to feed fowls, as it
makes layers out of them, and as
old horses, or young ones can he
purchased pretty cheaply nowadays.
it is not very expensive food for the
chickens.

why the Return was 80 Sudden

Some weeks ago young married
couple from Smith Valley went to
San Francisco to see the sights and
the Midwinter Fair. Their stay in
the city was very brief, and they
returned to Dayton to edo" the cap
ital of the county for a week or
more, Mr. A. stating that his
health was not good in the city.
1t is now stated by reliable parties
that hubby" ran against conf
den, e" outfit while taking in the
sights OF the city and was ''bunco-
ed" out of quite a sum of money.
A borrow was made and the young
couple struck out for home instant
