J. w. Ferguson says that Churchill
county people will go to the Wadsworth
celebration on The Fourth almost TO Il
man and that there will not be enough
people lefG in Churchill to DO the
milking.
A woodchopper hailing from the neigh
borhood OF White Horse told us about a
small cyclone that travelled that way a
week age. He says it tore up cedar
trees by the roots ana lifted boulders
weighing half a ton one hundred feet in
the air. The report has since been veri-
fed by others.
Chairman j. B. Mccullough Of the
Peoples party State Central Committee
has issued a call for a meeting to be held
1t the Reno Court House next Tuesday,
June 30th, at 10 a. m. for the purpose
of e~lecting delegates to the National
Convention to be held at st. Louis

At the Commencement exercises of the
Reno High School held in McKissick's
Opera House Miss Annie Theelan de-
livered the Salutatory: Cuban INDIE
pendence," in a msnne very compli-
mentary to herself and her teachers.
She was the leader of her class. Miss
Annie is the daughter of Henry Theelan
of Churchill and that gentleman has
reason to feel proud of Miss Annie's
record in school.
Shortly after 7 O'Clock Wednesday
evening the attention of the people OF
Wadsworth was drawn to q peculiar dis
turbance of the atmosphere in the direc-
ton Of Hot Springs. 1t seemed like a
whirlwind that had gathered up the
sand and dust and was moving across
the desert at the rate of 40 miles per
hour. 1t struck q distant mountain and
went to pieces, but the sand and dust
did not settle enough to clear the at
mosphere for half an hour.

The Winnemucca Silver State says !:
James Perry and John Leonard, two of
the men implicated in the shooting OF
Brakeman Knowles at Golconda, are
old time convicts, according to informa-
ton received by Sheriff Hadley from
a California detective. They were re-
leased from Folsom prison but a short
time since, Leonard having served three
and Perry two terms in California peni-
tentiaries. Perry has just begun the
service of a two years at Carson. while
Leonard, having escaped punishment
this time, will doubtless succeed in
breaking into some other Jail ere long.
The Austin Reveille says: Mr.. Brooks

and purchased from cattle men about
| 900 head of cattle. The band started

from j. II. Becker. p. Walsh, j. f.

whole will amount to about $12, 900.
With apologies to Judge Linn Of Reno
Frank Fellows visited Laughton's
Springs last week. Frank has one Of
the finest cabinets in the State and
everybody knows it. So Sam Laughton
hauled out a fine specimen of fungus
growth taken from a mountain pine and
gave it to Frank. With apologies to
Judge: Frank was showing the curio on
the train coming home and a little girl
after eying it with wonder exclaimed ]:
