ing.
For the meeting Of the National
Educational Association at Buffalo in
1896 the excellent service given by
the Union Pacific was commented
on by all those who had the pleasure
of using that line. This year our
educational friends meet in Milwau-
kee, Wis, July 9th to 9th, and
members of the association and
others from points west of the Mis-
souri, River, should BY all means take
the Union Pacific.
The service of the UNION PACIFIC
via Omaha or Kansas City is the very
best. The equipment consists OF
handsome day coaches, Chair Cars
Pullman Buffet and Drawing Room
Sleepers, Dining Cars and Buffet
Smoking and Library Cars. Fewer
changes than via any other line
One fare, plus $50 for the round
trip will be the rate from all points

Saturday f. G. Berger sued VIM.
Turner for $21. Is and caused Tur-
ner's arrest on charge of attempt
ing to leave the state without pay
ing the bill. The claim is made for
advances made to Turner by Berger
while working for the latter in the

claimed that Berger was to furnish
him with board, clothing, etc.
under the contract of work and that
the s2l.15 was to apply on so odd
days work he had performed This
IS the first civil case to occ1r here
IN 10 years in which the defendant
has been arrested, though such
cases are of common occurrence at

The report OF last week that 16
cases of fever existed at DeLamar is
contradicted. The doctors at De-
Lamar say that no pronounced cases
exist there at this time, but that one
or two cases approaching fever have
been encountered of late, every one
of these cases presenting form of
bilious intermittent fever, due
principally to neglect of the system
but not unsuual in any of its charac-
teristics.

Teams had been stationed at every
available point along the road and
when the start was made no stops
occurred except to change horses.
p. b. McKeon did the driving and
with the same arrangements for the
return trip, viii tried to still
further shorten the time.
Fire Drill
The DeLamar Company proposes
to take the fewest chances possible
of loss by fire. Hose houses are
stationed at various accessible places,
above below and around the works;
electric alarm bells are placed at a
number of prominent points and
the whole mill force constitutes the
Fire Company. The whistle sounds
general alarms and denotes the hose
house to be used.
A fire alarm drill is an occasional
feature. One took place on Sunday
at about l o'clock, the whistle sound
ing for the South end of the wood
yard The mill hands had the hose
out and water on in less then a
minute and half, including about
200 yard run from the mill. The
alarm brought out the town also.
This is good active work for any
fire company and would be hard to
beat.

The DeLamar Company last week
sustained loss of its entire supply
ofseveralhundred cords of wood at its
pump station between here and Mea-
dow Valley Wash, The fire proba-

done to save any of the ricks.
The big smokestack at the mill
is climbing into the air every day.
1t is riveted together in eight foot
sections each piece being joined on
at the bottom and the stack then
raised for another piece. 1t is to

THE SCHOOL APPoRTIoNMENT

The amount of money apportion-
ed to the various counties of the
State for the semi-annual term end
ing June 80, 1897, is over Sc 900
larger than for the same period one
year ago, which is noteworthy in
crease is due in part to the vigil
lance and firmness of State Treas
urer Westerfeld, who took the
ground that the expenses of the
Orphans Home and portions of the
salaries of some of the State officials
are not properly payable out of the
State School Fund, as heretofore
practiced. The Supreme Court has
sustained him in his view, and the
public schools are thereby gamers
to the extent of some thousands of
dollars yearly. Reno journal.
