interesting Notes from Southern
Esmeralda.

aud are somewhat fangued by our
eXertions. The mental strain on the
committee appointed to conduct the
Fiesta and sagebrush water carnival
on the same day was too much. Some
fell early in the day and are lying
where they fell, trying to get sober.
while the rest of Us are STAGGERING
round wondering where we are. The
usual salutes were dispensed with, as
was also the procession. Everybody
was trying to make the Fiesta the
browning glory of the century and
the water carnival a thing to be re
membered. There was to be a sage
hen queen. with ladies in waiting,
and 20O-pound wood chopper in
tights as the Prince of Esmeralda to
give the thing tone. The absence of
water was the only drawback to the
carnival, but rather than have dry
one the committee disbursed most of
the money collected in corn whisky
and bottled beer. How the affair
ended we do not know, most of the
leaders being unable to even give an
account of themselves.
The good people of Fish Lake val
ley had a picnic and dance at CHAT
ovich's ranch and had a royal time.
The princely hospitality of John Chi
atovich and his estimable wife were
never better shown than on this oc-
casion, and good wishes for them
were the last words spoken by the
many friends gathered there.
The mining news of the camp is
better than ever before. There is a
new strike in the Red Light which
promises to keep CLiatovieh's mill
going for long time to come. He
has about six feet of ore which will
work $40 and upwards. There are
60 or 10 tons on the dump, and five
men are at work taking out more.
That number of men can keep the
mill running should the ledge hold
out as it is now Another encourag-
ing thing is the fact that at dist
ance of about 700 feet from the
mouth of the Mary tunnel they have
run into porphyry with quartz in it
and water oozes from the seams.
The formation is soft, while the tun-
mel has been in the hardest kind of
lime and serpentine for every foot OF
the 700 feet. Should ore be found
there Chiatovich will have proved
the permanency of the mines
Barnes & Keyser are still taking
out good ore. Their last shipment
went 2,200 ounces in silver and $50
in gold to the ton.
Poor & Bowers are taking out sim
liar ore near them.
These seem to be the only men
who are doing anything in Aida val
ley. Little is being done in Tule
Canyon, but off to the south, at
Chuckwalla, Louis Chiatovich has
mill about completed, and as soon as
the ore team which left here few
days ago arrives at that place he will
start his works and there will he au-
other paying mine on the list tostand
off the failures OF old Esmeralda.
Sheriff Ingalls, paid us a visit last
week and cinched all hands for %
and upwards to help support the
government.
We are waiting to hear the name
of the silver candidate for President
when we all propose to register and
vote for Mckinley to stay at home.
The man in this State who votes for
him ought to be compelled to beg for

SHOT HER NEGRO AssAILANr.-Mis

SHOT HER NEGRO AssAILANT.-Miss
Florence Wright, who lives at Brinck-
ley, Ark, went out for walk just out
side of the town at ten o'clock Monday
night. She took her fathers pistol
with her to protect herself from the
dogs that infest the neighborhood,
which is thickly settled. She had gone
but a short distance when she was at
tackled by Godfrey Gould, q big negro.
She resisted and drew her pistol, with
which she threatened to shoot her as
salant. The negro took the weapon
from her, and taking her in his arms,
carried her into the woods. Seeing the
butt of the revolver sticking from her
assailant's hip pocket, the girl snatched
it and shot him in the head, bursting
out his right eye. The brute jumped
up and ran away. The authorities
we're notified and about an hour after
ward Sheriff Johnson and posse found
Gould about fifty yards away from the
scene of the attempted assault lying in
an unconscious condition and dying.
Miss Wright was taken to where the
negro lay, that she might identify him.
AS soon as she saw him she became
wild with anger, and tore pistol from
the hands of the sheriff and fired an
other bullet at the dying fend, which
missed its mark.

WHEAT, Corn AND HAY CROPS
The clear. hot weather of the past week
has been of great advantage to the
farmers In this section. 1t has enabled
them to thresh wheat and clean the
corn crop and save hay. II the wet

the field would have sustained much
damage and the corn was being over
run with grass. The prospects for a
big corn crop were never better. The

A LAND OF PLENTY.-Ihe Sun has
on several occasions alluded to the
wonderful productiveness of what is
known as the Northern Neck of Vir-
ginia, between the Potomac and Kappa
hammock rivers. That section is fast
becoming great trucking region, for
which its soil seems especially adapted
A prominent business man of Fred
ericksburg, who has recently made an
extensive tour of the Northern Neck,
gives a glowing description of the crop
prospects there. 1.-THE county," said
this gentleman, sis looking splendid
and l never saw better crops. The
corn is the finest / ever saw, and the
sweet potatoes magnificent; prospects
splendid for tomatoes. Packing-houses
getting ready for the crops. There
has been more hay cut down there than
ever before. Fresh vegetables are plen-
tiful, and the people live in nice houses
with nice surroundings. l never saw
as many chickens and fowls in my life. :"
When the Northern Neck secures a
railroad through its entire length,
which is promised in the near future,
it will present unsurpassed attractions
for home-seek kers.-Baltimore Sun.

HAS A MoUsTACHE, YET ONLY IA
YEARs.-Ed Jenkins is fourteen-year-
old boy living in Garret county, KY,
whose claim to distinction is based on
the fact that he has fully developed
black moustache that many man of
thirty would be proud to boast.
The boy was hardly ten years old
when the fur began to sprout on the
upper lip. Contrary to the usage of
boys, be not did encourage its growth by
surreptitously shaving. He never
put razor to his face, but the hair
needed no encouragement, and contin-
ued to grow and become darker until
the moustache was thick and long.
The remarkable feature is that the
boy is not particularly developed be-
yond his years in any other way. He
is not above the average in height or
weight. He still wears knee pants,
and it is queer sight to see him
fumbling at his moustache and curling
the ends.
