 Prof L O.

 He also said no place in the country was free from the pest, and if it was desired to save the elm trees next spring they would have to be given q thorough spraying with a destroying solution. He believed there was no doubt that the beetles would kill the trees if left alone

 All Sank.

All Sank.
 PORT HURON, Mich, Aug. 29.-An ac- cident occurred on the St. Clair river near Marysville during a squall and rainstorm, in which four persons lost their lives. A picnic was being held at Stag island, op- posite Marysville, and Mrs. Michael De- rufg, Frank Derufg, her brother-in-law, and three young ladies-Miss Celia Cho- niski, Minnie Schvenhart and Edith Com mer-were out in boat. The squall struck the little craft and capsized it.
 Miss Schvenhart, girl of 15, clambered on the boat, but the other three all got hold of Frank Derufg. For awhile he held on to the upturned boat with one hand and made heroic battle for life, but when one of the women in her despera- tion got hold of his free hand the handi- cap proved too much and he had to let go, and all four sank to the bottom. The Schvenhart girl chung to tho boat and was rescued later by some boys.

ORMS3Y'S FAIR.
A Big Week OF Sport to be Had in
Carson.

This week will witness the greatest
racing meeting eve held in this State.
AS big as the State Fair was and it
was a big, successful meeting, no d
questions the fact that Carson will
witness a much bigger one. There
are many reasons for this. Reno is
some little distance from the Fair
grounds, while the Carson grounds
are right at the edge of the city. The
pool selling is always larger here be-
cause the sports can bet with o
certainty after they have seen the
horses go at Reno a week. The Car.
son track is dead level, in fine condi-
ton and a few seconds faster than the
Reno track.
The Superintendent of the Com
stock mines will close the whole ledge
down on Thursday and turn the whole
city down to Carson. The big band
will play at the track and the Pavilion
and also give the panoramic exhibit
ton which is one of the most marvel
Gus things eve witnessed in this State.

EESTED n & T.
Remarkable Experience Of CHRIS
tophsr Columbus PoWning.

In spite of all he kicks and roars
from rhe Reno Fair, no u can deny
that CHRISTOPHER Columbus Powning
is a hot hustler when it M to get
ting a move on things.
But his great feat was in besting
rhe Y. & T. to the tune OF several hun
dred dollars. He tried to get Yering-
ton to run a round trip train from the
Comstock TO Reno and return for 81
the round trip. but Yerington scoffed
at the idea that such a snap would
pay as he did not consider that the
Fair would be much Of a go anyhow.
He wanted 800 a day guaranteed or
no train. Powning finally agreed to
pay 800 a day for the train and own
it for the week. He closed a contract
on these terms. The first three days
paid for the train and Powning has
been pulling down the long green
ever since as a clear profit.
The boys say that when the V. & T.
Directors saw the big, full trains roll
ing by the depot they called a meeting
and blel internally.

and in the contemplation of Texas law,
it appears, brother-in-law's heart is
made OF sterner stuff. The court did,
indeed, discover by diligent search two
cases in which damages had been re-
covered under not wholly dissimilar cir
cumstances-in one case by brother
in-law and in the other by sster-in-
| law-but it brushed these aside as not
authoritative. Said Mr.. Justice Brown ::
! In order for plaintiff to have recovered in
this case he must have proved that a the time
the message was delivered the company was
notified OF the relations existing between him
and deceased, otherwise the company would
! be regarded as only having in contemplation
such results as would follow in the usual
course of things when brothers-in- law are thus
concerned, and not to have contemplated that
degree of anguish which would exist in case of
brothers. Neither could the jury infer mental
anguish from the fact of relationship of brother
ln-law, or that of friend, or upon proof OF the
existence OF these tender ties between them, In
| fact; for there is no recognized common rule
| that the dearest friends suffer such anguish on
like occasions. There being neither proof OF
notice to the company OF the special cireum-
stances nor of the actual suffering by plaintiff
the judgment was unauthorized by the proof,
Reversed and remanded.
