MORE THAN MINES IN NEVADA.
aThe exhibits made at the Midwinter
Fair by the State Of Nevada, together
with the present celebration, will go
far to correct an impression as to the
resources or that state. Rich as the
mineral exhibits are, they are not the
chief point Of interest for the many
observers. Nevada makes an inter
esting agricultural display. 1t is tax
ing rank as food producing State.
Cereals, grass, potatoes and a wide
range of agricultural products are the
convincing demonstrations of relative
ly large food producing resources.
The crops are chiefly produced with
out irrigation. The small streams
will Of course be utilized for that pur-
pose.
This year the grazing lands of Ne
vada have been sought by the cattle
and sheep owners of Southern Cali.
fornia. The drought in that section
left nothing in the way of grass to
81 stain the flocks or herds. Thou
sands of cattle and sheep were head
ed for the mountains many weeks
ago. The snow storms overlook them
and great numbers fell by the way.
The destination of most of these floeks
and herds was Nevada. Cattle and
sheep have also been shipped by the
railroad to that State and are now
feeding there. These will be sent
back when the next season opens, if
the rains are abundant in Southern
California. Nevada issustaining now
the half famished sheep and cattle
that could not find subsistence on
this side of the mountains. Cattle
and sheep have also been sent into
the valleys of Northern California,
where the grazing is good on account
of the abundant rains. .. ....
TBut the greater drift is over the
mountains. At the last accounts,
Notwithstanding the losses of many
thousands, sheep are climbing the
western slope of the Sierra, most of
which will probably bring up within
the limits of Nevada. For many
years trains Of beef cattle have been
sent from that state to the markets of
California. These shipments will
probably increase during the present
year. A state that can show snch
agricultural resources will not be de-
serted even if operations should cease
in,every mine. A large population
dan be sustained in Nevada by agri-
culture alone. These views are con
firmed by the range of interesting ex-
hibits which that state makes at the
Midwinter Fair. There is good
deal Of permanent wealth indicated
by these exhibits" '9a.t

A BAD RAILROAD @REOK.

Two Wheeling and Lake Eric Trains
Come Together In the Storm.
BELLEVUE, OHIO, February 1.-TWO
freight trains collided on the Wheeling
and Lake Erie road in the storm this
morning, two miles west Of here. Three
men were killed-both engineers and
one fireman.
Both trains were running at full
speed, the binding snow preventing
the engineers from seeing the danger.
The collision was terrific, both engines
being smashed into scrap iron. The
freight cars were broken into splinterS
and piled up in utter confusion. a
wrecking train with physicians was
sent from Norwalk. When 1t arrived
the trainmen were still in the wreck,
and were extricsted one by one. The
following were either killed outright or
have died since the collision: Engineer
Connell, Fireman McMulln, both Of en-
CINE 25. Engineer Sam Stowell, of en-
CINE %. Brakeman johnson, OF train
No. 40.
The bodies of all the above were
mangled and their limbs broken. The
rest Of the trainmen escaped without
injury except severe bruises. The cause
of the wreck will probably remain a
mystery as both engineers are dead.
