The two cents added to the State
tax this year on account of the State
University bonds, is causing trouble.
Ormsby County has given notice to
the State that she will not pay it, SO
has Storey, and other counties are
expected to do likewise. The Uni
versity is not liked by Ormsby
and Storey particularly, and they are
consistent in refusing to recognize
the tax. 1t would be different how
ever, if the Institution was located
in either of the counties named. We
would hear no objections raised
then.

A Grand EizzIe.

Private advices from one of the
crew of the big brig Percy Edwards,
which sailed from San Francisco
some two months ago for the Solo
men islands, with party of 100
men, who expected to find an Adam
less Eden to colonize, has been re-
ceived to the effect that the expedi-
ton collapsed at Fiji. After gen
eral distribution of community prop
erty many of the colonists left the
vessel and sought employment on
the shore and the remainder resol-
we'd to take the brig to New leland
where she will be sold at auction.
The proceeds are to be divided.

A Money Making Plan.

An exchange tells story of man
in Chicago, who determined to spend
all that he made the first year in ad-
vertising. He soon found that it was
impossible, for the more be adver-
tised the more money he made, and
after a strenuous effort he gaveit up.
OF course, if you don't believe this
the only way you can prove it is to
try it.

The number of deaths and prostra-
tions from heat in the eastern states
now beginning to come in make one
doubly appreciate the glory and
beauty of our mountain climate, aud
a pity it is that the conditions are
not such that hundreds of thousands
of the dissatisfied, unhappy and
physically poor of other sections cam
not enjoy with us it beauties and life
giving influences.

The Renegade Mouse" Supposed to
have left the Country.
Since the murder of the five white
men by the Indian Avote, at Eldor-
ado Canyon. last month, scouting
parties of Indians have been out
after Mouse, the brother of Avo te. to
deal with him for the murder of the
two prospectors whom he lured to
their death last January, under pre-
tense of plotting them to rich ledge
groupings.
Mouse has not been found how
ever and is supposed to have left the
country. When the scouting parties
took up the search Mouse was sup
posed to be hiding in the mountains
near the Vegas ranch.
A recent letter from that place
says that Indians of the scouting
party had stopped over for two days
at the ranch. All were we'll armed
and several of them were impudent
and saucy. They claimed not to have
seen anything of Mouse and to give
up the search.
Several settlers thereabouts think
the renegade Indian has gone south
into the San Bernardino mountains.
They want the search continued and
a reward put upon his head, for
aside from the danger to be appre-
hended from his being at large, a
b llf hearted effort at capture and ap-
parent listlessness of tile whites, ,rend-
er them subject to fnrture depreda-
tions at the hands OF the Indians.

One reason why Carson wants a
fstic tournament to come of there IN
the fall is to show the loveliness OF
the climate. The fall season is un-
iformly fine. The extreme roughness
of the weather last March at the Cor
bett-Fitzsimmons mill sent away
most of the newspaper men with bad
opinions of the place and the Carson
people naturally want this impress
sion corrected even if it takes prize
fight to do it.

The Projected Railroad to Lake Tahoe.

The Projected Railroad to Lake Tahoe.
The Surveyors commenced work
on Tuesday, for the projected rail-
road between TrucAee aud Lake Ta-
hoe.
The Truckee Republican says
that the prime object of the survey
is to ascertain what the cost OF con-
struction will be. If the cost does
not exceed a certain figure, the road
will be built this summer, otherwise
the project will be Abandoned; all de-
pends upon the result of the survey.
The report that ground has been
broken on the rold is mistake and
it will be three or four weeks before
it is fully determined whether the
road will be built or not.

An important change in the freight
Transportation service between New
York, Philadelphia and the South has
been made by traffic agreement arranged
between the Baltimore and Philadelphia
Steamboat Company and the Baltimore
Steam Packet Company, by which
through freight line has been formed for
handling goods to all points reached by
the Seaboard Air Line and its connec-
tions. The Baltimore and Philadelphia
Steamboat Company maintains daily
service from New York and Philadelphia
to Baltimore by way Of the Delaware
and Chesapeake Canal and Chesapeake
Bay. The freight will be carried from
Baltimore to Portsmouth, Va, the tide
water terminus of the Seaboard AIR
Line, by the steamers of the Old Bay
Line, and thence transferred by rail to
it's destination. The new line will give
added facilities to Philadelphia merchants
for doing business in the South, and it
will receive large patronage on account
of the shortness of the route, and the
quick dispatch of freight which it en-
ables.

AN OLD CONVICT PARDONED.
Convicted Ten Years Ago of Barn
Burning in Halifax.

Convicted Ten Years ago Oh DARN
Burning in Halifax.
The Governor yesterday granted par
don to negro named Summerlin, who
was convicted nearly eleven years ago OF
barn-burning in Halifax county, and was
sentenced for twenty years.
He is now quite an old man and has
one of the best prison records ever
known to the authorities. He was con-
vieted on the evidence of another negro,
who was afterwards found guilty of as
sault with intent to rape. There was
always considerable doubt as to Sum
merlin's guilt, and after his Incarceration
the burnings continued.
The pardon was recommended by the
trial judge, the solicitor, the jurors now
living, the bar and many of the best and
most prominent citizens of Halifax
county. 1t was through the efforts OF
Capt Thomas w. Mason that the par
don was secured.
