Murdered by a TRAMP.

A Genoa Courier extra gives the
particulars of terrible murder that
was committed Wednesday afternoon
on the old Ferris ranch, four miles
south of Genoa. Mr., and Mrs. VIM.
Sarmann, an aged couple, resided on
the ranch. Mr.. Sarmann was absent
from home, and between 3 and 4
o'clock in the afternoon Mrs. Sarmann
was foully murdered, placed in a bed
and the bed set on fire. Mr.. Sarmann
happened to return home just in the
nick OF time to save his property, bat
the murderer had escaped. 1t was
learned that tramp had called at
the house about IL o'clock and asked
for something to eat and was supplied.
The same tramp was seen in the
neighborhood about o'clocksand it
was suspicioned that he committed
the crime. Sheriff Mccormack is on
his trail and is expected to arrest him
in few hours. Mrs. Sarmann was
killed with Ratchet, which was af-
terward found in a woodshed covered
with blood.

State Development,

William E. Smythe. editor Of the
Irrigation Age, spoke to large au-
dience in Carson Wednesday after
noon en- irrigation and colonization.
The following report of his speech is
taken from the Appeal:
He said he had come to Nevada to
discuss the problem of interesting the
surplus people Of the East with the
surplus lands of the West.
Poverty and want existed mainly
when the population were tenants in
stead of land owners. Utah was the
best known example in the United
States of what land ownership did for
the people. The people who came
into Utah with Brigham Young we're
mostly poverty stricken class, and
had very little beyond their personal
effects, yet they turned their arid lands
into a garden. The secret of their
success was that they made the soil
support them and consumed nothing
not raised in Utah. AS result they
we're never affected by hard times and
the result of which by good system
ofirrigation cleared over five hundred
million Of dollars for the people of
Utah. The Greeley Colony started in
Colorado twenty-five years ago. They
went in to combine land and water
and made money. They started with
fruit as the principal crop and failed,
but IN one year cleared one million
dollars off potatoes alone.
He drew striking picture Of the
poverty of the East. Men we're max.
ing shoes in Massachusetts, for s1O
week wages which only meant S5 a
week because they only worked half
time.
He also contrasted the two great
financial systems of Brigham Young
and George Pullman. In Utah the
man who worked got all he earned
and the increased value of the land
meant moro money in his pocket.
Under the Pullman system a'tenant
worked always for wages and IL he
improved his home it meant higher
rental. SO when the Pullman la
borers went on. strike they were
paupers when they began and pau.
pers when they finished.
Millions of people in the East will
come ont West and take cheap land,
till 1T and develop it, and as long as
water win run down hill there is mon.
ey in it. But these people don't want
the high priced lands Of California.

ONE HUNDRED MILLION STARS

How Astronomers Compute the Number
In the Heavens.
Let US see what richness of stellar
distribution is implied by this number
of 100, 100000 of visible stars, says the
Gentleman's Magazine. 1t may be
easily shown that the area of the
whole sky in both hemispheres is Al, ,256
square degrees. This gives 2,424 stars
to the square degree.
The moons apparent diameter being
slightly over half n degree (31 deg. 5
min. the area of its disk is about one
fifth of a square degree.
The area of the whole star sphere is
consequently about 100000 times the
area of the full moon. A total of 1OO,-
100000 of stars gives therefore 500 stars
to each space of sky in area to the full
moon. This seems large number, but
stars scattered over as thickly as this
would appear at a considerable dis
tance apart when viewed with a tele-
scope of high power. AS the area of
the moons disk contains about 7sO
square minutes of arc, there would not
be an average OF even one star to each
square minute. A pair of stars half a
minute, or thirty seconds, apart would
form a very wide double star, and with
stars placed at even this distance the
moons disk would cover about 5000, or
six times the actual number visible in
the largest telescope.

CRUELTY IN GREENLAND.
Bsrbarous Features There of the Marriage
Customs.

Barbarous Features There Of tho Marriage
Customs.
For wanton cruelty in the capture of
a bride we must go to Greenland.
There we find something more than
simulated violence in the method of
capture and the means by which the
girl is retained. DR.. Nansen, in his ac-
count of his journey ACROSS Green
land, says that on the west coast mar
rlage nowadays roughly follows the
lines OF marriage in Europe, but on the
east coast old customs prevail. A man
having made up his mind to take to
himself wife, goes to the tent of a
family, one of whose girl members
meets his views, catches her by the
hair or in some other equally rude
way, and drags her forth to his home
he there presents her with a bucket or
some useful domestic utensil, and the
ceremony is complete.
According to Baron Nordenslkiold.
etiquette requires that the bride should
receive hard blows. She does not sub
NIT readily, but bewails her fate, ap-
pears with torn garments and dishev-
eled hair, and makes show of getting
away from her husband. Sometimes
her grief is sincere, and a sensitive
European would certainly not know
whether it was or not. He might be
tempted to interfere, in which case he
would probably find himself opposed
by the bride as well as bridegroom. In
order that the apparently miserable
woman might be compelled to remain
In her new home, the barbarous Gus
tom used to exist of branding her feet
so that they were too painful for her
to walk. By the time they were well
she could with propriety declare her
self resigned to her position.
In Greenland, it is easy to tell who is
married and who is not. The Esqui-
maux women gather up their hair into
huge tuft on the top, tying it with a
ribbon, the color of which denotes their
position. A maid wears red, married
woman blue, widow, black; a widow
anxious to remarry, black and red; q
widow too old to remarry, white.
