A woman bicyclist of Springfield,
Mass., has kept record of her rid
ing during the winter, and says that
there have been only twenty six days
since November 1, 1895, when she has
not been out on her wheel.
Herman Bellinger, formerly OF
Eureka, has been appointed superin-
tendent OF the British Columbia
smelling company at Trail, B. c., at a
salary of $4,000 a year. Thus another
Nevada boy is elevated to high and
lucrative position.

A cat belonging to a resident Of
Cameron, Mo-, is nursing a litter of
wild rabbits and caring for them
with motherly solicitude. Several
kittens were born to the cat week
or 80 ago, but they all died. A neigh
Dor found nest of very young wild
rabbits about the same time, and they
were put in charge of the cat, with the
happy result told.

The F.rtil. Humboldt valley.

@. A. Norcross, who is on his way
to Washington to en.er upon the
duties of the Senate, wrote u letter TO
his paper, the Nevada Tribune, which
contained the following regarding the
Humboldt valley:
3Water only is needed to make
this great empire fruitful. Some day
the water will be got here. From the
hills where nature stores her mois-
ture and from artesian sources. Then
the greatness Of this state of Nevada,
which many so kindly sheer at nov,
will command the admiration Of the
world. State development can not
be done in the face of the fact that
wheat and other farm products are
selling below the cost of production
The genesis Of state development
commences when wheat is worth a
dollar bushe!. Then every acre of
land capable of growing wheat has a
value which appeals to capital in a
speech that eDEsts it's enterprise. At
one dollar bushel, land capable of
raising 80 bushels to the acre at cost
of fifteen dollars has an annual
bounty Of $15 to offer as an induce
mems to capital to put water on it :.
That is the irrigation question in a
nutshell. What reward is promised
to enterprise now on 60.cent wheat?
LET us not waste time in talking
OF agricultural development until we
! get 81 wheat. Then it will solve ite
own problem. 1.-THE free coinage OF
silver means dollar wheat that is the
road to agricultural development, and
every other way proposed is snare
and delusion."

several young men on the jury whom
he thought would be for him. When

started with the Marshal to the Jail.
As he passed along the street crowds
gathered full Of curiosity. AS he pas

GAS CONCERNS PROCEEDED AGAINST
State Of New York VIII Take "a
HIND.

Albany, N. Y, Nov. 1.-THE attorney
general today. in the matter Of the petit
ton of John c. Lester for the institu-
ton of proceedings for annulling the
charters of the Williamsburg Gas Light
Company, the Fulton Municipal Gas
Company, the Nassau Gas Light Com
pany, the Peoples Gas Light Company,
the Metropolitan Gas Light Company,
the Citizens Gas Company. the Brooklyn
Gas Light Company and the Brooklyn
Gas Company, forming an alleged trust,
has decided TO Deg1N 2 suit as pcluoNed.
The papers presented upon the hearing
set forth that prior to November /, 1873,
there had been organized the eight com
panes above named, and also the Flat
bush Gas Company, the Kings County
Gas Company. the Equity Gas Light
Company and the Mutual Gas Light Com
pany, for the ostenslble purpAee of sup
plying gas to the city Of Brooklyn and
adjacent territory.
The first seven companies, through the
operation OF their various mains furnish
for the city Of Brooklyn. On or about
November l, 1850 the Brooklyn Union
Gas Company purchased the property and
franchises Of these companies, the sales
in question being made in accordance
with the provision Of the stock corp0r-
alton law, which permits companies or
this character to convey their property,
privileges and franchises to corporations
engaged in d business Of the same gen
eral character. The statutes however,
it is held, contemplate the merging +
consolidating corporations into a single
new corporation in place Of those form
erly in existence The corporations
which have transferred their property
and franchises ought not to be permit
ted to continue a semblance Of cOrpOr-
ate lines, especially when they have sus-
pended their ordinary and lawful business
beyond the time permitted by law. The
action will, therefore, be commenced in
the name of the people, to dissolve those
which have disposed of their corporate
rights and property.

SENSATIONAL REPORT is DENIED.
Says Steamship Cortagena Did Not
Founder.

Madrid, Nov. 3.-The sensational report crcu-
lated in the United States by news agency
that the town of Huelya has been swept by a
tidal wave from the Atlantic ocean, with ter
rife life loss, is untrue. 1t is also false that
the steamship Cartagena has been overwhelm-
ed by a great wave, and most of the persons
on board Of her drowned. The two sensations
were probably based the effects Of a cy-
clone which swept over Seville Wednesday last,
announced in American Associated Press ex-
clusively), which caused a number of fatal
wrecks. Bodies of drowned are now coming
ashore at Huelva and at Cartagena Spanish
seaport in the Mediterranean. A sailing vessel
foundered and 1t is feared several persons were
drowned. This apparently was the basis upon
which the startling statement Of the "over-
whelming' Of the steamship Cartagena and
the drowning of most of the persons on her.
was based.
