A View of the Situation ns 1t Appears

From the London Spectator.
Twelve men once agreed that each should
ask the most unpopular man OF his ac-
quaintance to dinner. They sat down
thirteen, for the twelve votes had all fallen
on one man. 1t is very much to be feared
that If the peoples of the earth were 10 be
asked to name the most unpopular nation,
they would, with one assent. name Eng
land. Some of them might say that. per-
sonally, they liked her. but all would agree
in the fact she is the most unpopular mem
ber of the family of nations. With the

more openly regarded as the diSagreeable
power whose function is to be stolidly and
stubbornly tireSUme and unamiable. Even
Austria, though she has little real cause
to hate, and some cause to like, admits
with a sigh that We are intclerable, like
all selfish people"-for that We are always
selfishly looking out for our own interests

pleasanter face; but she, while she dis
avows the feeling for herself has to al
init that her experience is contrary to the
rest of mankind, and that therefore, in
the true sense of the word. We are unpopu-

is deserved, but she cannot but note the
phenomenon.
Our own flesh and blood in America join
the chorus and declare that though We

THE FIRST PNEUMATIC TIRE,
A Rather Crude Affair That Hardly
Suggests the Present Finished Design
From the Buffalo Express

A Rather Crude Affair That Hardly
From the Buffalo Express
Very few of the hundreds of thousands
Of cyclists who now enjoy the pastime on
an up-to-date safety, shod with pneumatic
tires have an idea from what a crude con-
trivance those same air cushions on their
wheels haYe been evolved. Pneumatic
tires were invented in 1889 by J. B. Dun
lop, horse doctor of Belfast, Ireland. He
had a son who rode tricycle.. and who by
his Indulgence had developed q nervous
trouble. The veterinary concluded that
the boys disorder was due solely to the
jolting of the wheels and, planning to do
away with the objection, so that the lad
might continue his exercise. he hit upon
the idea of putting air cushions en- the
wheels.
With only such material as he had at
hand for use in doctoring equine invalids,
he set to work. Using broomstick as a
mandrel. he wrapped 1t spirally with linen
bandages. Next, he took some rubber
sheets and solu:ioned them around the
linen. The ends also he fastened with rub
ber solution. He inserted a valve a little
better than plug. and, putting it on the
wheels, started his son away on the first
pneumatic tires.
1t was quickly found that the rough-and-
ready style of fabric would not hold air,
and so an inner sheath of pure rubber was
tried. The valve was vulcanized to this
inner tube in such a way that in the event
of any trouble with the valve an entire
new air sheath was the only remedy.
Flat rims were used at the time, and the
tires were fastened to The rim by strip
of muslin which came out with the free
edges from the under side Of the tires.
These ends we're wrapped around the rim
and vulcanized to it. The linen completely
covered the rim, effectually concealing its
material.
Tires such as these We're used for a
couple of years. They weighed from twelve
to fifteen pounds a pair. and puncture
in one of them was about AS serious mat
ter as broken frame is at the present
time,

OUR GREAT DESERT.
Plans to Lessen the Dangers of the
Great MOjave Waste.

From the San Francisco Examiner
The great Mojave desert is no longer to
be trackless waste. The loss of hapless
prospectors who have perished from year
to year has finally moved the board of sup
ervisors of San Bernardino county. which
includes within it 10000 square miles of the
desert, to take some action to make it pos
sible for prospectors to travel that arid
region in comparative safety.
Recently a number Of mining Inen petit
toned that a complete map Of the desert
be made, showing the roads. trails and
sources of water supply, and a committee
was ordered to investigate and report. The
result of their investigations has jus: been
made public, and they recommend all that
was asked, and more. There are trails and
roads leading all over the desert to the
various mining camps which dot that
waste of sand, and 1t is proposed to have
maps made, with blue print copies, which
will be supplied to desert travellers, with all
the landmarks designated, thus enabling
them to follow the trails with much less
danger of losing their way. But, in addi-
tion, it is proposed to establish a system of
sign boards and guide posts at intervals
along the trails. giving information as to
directions and distances, and. more inn
portant than all, the nearest point where
water may be found. Nine-tenths of :he
people lost in the desert die of thirst. Not
infrequently their bleached bones have
been found within short distance of the
spring they sought. By the new system
which is planned the unlucky pGospector
will know how far he is from water. and
will lay his plans accordingly
Rewards are to be offered to anyone dis
covering new springs or developing any
water at points where none is known to
| exist Springs already known will be clean
ed out and the water protected from pollu-
tion by wild animals or by careless hand
ling.
The mining men are intensely interested
in the proposed innovation 1t is estimated
that in the thirty years in which mining
has been followed In the desert not less
than s20,OO0.0OO has been taken out, while
in that time scores Of men have been lost
| whose lives might have been saved had
such a system been in vogue as is now pro-
posed. The desert is now fairly swarming
with prospectors, and others will go out as
soon as the weather becomes more toler.

Inc committee to whom was re-
ferred the question of fixing the sal
airy of Register of Probate. reported
as follows:
To the Honorable Board of Supervisors
Gentlemen: Tsur committee to whom
has been referred the resolution fixing a
salary for Register OF Probate, beg leave
To report that we have made a careful ex-
animation into the matter and from Such
examination we would recommend the adop-
ton of said resolution and at a salary of
fvehundred dollars.
We find that the work in the county court
has grown enormously in the past nine
years and has grown to such an extent that
this has become necessary and will be bene-
fetal to the residents of this county in many
respects.
We find that nineteen counties in this state
have such by special act of the legislature
and the legislature of 1898 by chapter Bog
passed a general law for the whole state
giving each county the right TO have such
an Office.
The salaries of the ONCE in the counties
that now have such. range from 500 to $500
and in many counties much sm aller than
this county. as for instance KenDsha county
gives $500 salary and has population of al
most 1900 less than half the population of
this county.
All Of which is respectfully submitted

An invitation was extended to
Judge Carter to address the board on
the need for register of probate in
this county, which he accepted. The
Judge reviewed the history OF the
probate business in this county, call
ing attention to the great expansion
of its business and increase in the
necessary labor Of keeping its rec
ords. He stated that in the last nine
years more business had been done ia
the county Judges Office than IN the
preceding fifty years.
Attention was also called to the
fact that in all the other counties Of
the state having business equal to
that in Grant county, registers have
been appointed.
On motion the report OF the com
mittee was adopted.
Mr.. Parker moved that a committee
Of three be appointed TO whom the re-
port of the asylum and poor house
trustees be referred. Carried.
