V. & T. Passenger Traffic.


In talking about the glove contest be-
tween Corbett and Fitzsimmons at Car
son on March 18th next the question is
always raised as to whether the V. 4 T.
can handle the traffic on that occasion.
1t is question only with those who
have not seen the road in operation in
the palmy days. The editor has seen
the time when the V. 4 T. had II full
train running daily for every mile OF
main track it has and those who think
they will he delayed or disconnected on
the way to Carson because the Va +.
cannot handle the traffic may now dis
abuse their minds Of tile idea. There
will be trains and trains and seats for
all. fa ssa
Train Master Alex Ardery OF the V. &

PIUTE LONGEVITY.

The mortality record of the Piute In
dians is far below that OF the usual aver
| age OF pale-iace communities on tie au-
| thority of Nachez, the Nestor, statsti-
| clan and oral historian of that tribe He
asserts with dogmatic air that brooks
no Contradiction that not more than ten
deaths from natural causes have occurred
in his tribe during the past four years.
The Indian population of Nevada, ac-
cording to the census statistics OF 1890,
was over 5000, three-fourths OF that
number belonging to the PahUte tribe.
In reply to the inquiry of what had be-
come of the large number of grzzed old
bucks obtrusively in evidence in, this
part OF the State ten years ago? Nachez
said that of late years they. have been
retiring them to the reservations at
Pyramid and Walker lake. y.
This is an improvement on the old
method in vogue prior to the settlement
of the State by whites, viewed from u Q
standpoint of the superanuated con-
tingent. In those days when Piute Of
either sex became too old to accompany
the tribe on its Summer wanderings he,
| or she, as the case might he, was picket
ed out like horse under the shade of
some tree with sufficient food to support
life for few days and after that exhaust
ed to patiently wait for the end.
Fremont in his memoirs mentions an
instance OF this kind that fell under his
observation while traversing Humboldt
county in this State on his way to the
Pacific Coast. After going into camp
one night Fremont and Kit Carson were
making Reconnaissance and came upon
an aged Piute squaw who had been tied
to tree and left to die by party of
| Piutes.-Va. Chronicle.
