Our Assemblymen.

A correspondent writing from Car
son to the Reno Journal has this to
say about Garrard and McNaughten
of ours: Hon. A. Garrard is the
only member who did not discard the
name Democrat in giving in his poll
tics, He is an aggressive member,
aud the only time he failed to carry
his point was upon the woman suf-
frageI question. He is true to friends,
relentless TO his enemies. He is a
close student of the Bible, aud has
the latest edition of that wotk in his
library"

tious member When presiding his

Fish Found on Land.

A very curious species of fish which
lives on dry land for ten months in the
year was recently discovered by DR..
Suard in the Moro district az be French
Soudan, some 500 miles from the coast.
This fish belongs to the family of 81
luri, and very much resembles the
Clarias. 1t lives in the marshes wlicii
are formed during the two months of
rainy season in that zone, and after
that time it hides in holes in the
ground, which the fish leaves at night
to search for its food. consisting mainly

From Harrisburg.

A correspondent who has just left
Randsburg writes The mines con-
tinne to go down and continue to paw
to this date. No one can say they
will not both go down and pay.
The owners of the King Solomon
group have a steam hoist on the
road. When it arrives they will sink
to e depth of 600 feet. This will
prove whether the veins go down,
and will settle the future of Rands-
burg.
Water is the one thing that is ne
cessary at Randsburg. A good sup
ply of water for milling and placers,
with an ample supply for town pur-
poses, will undoubtedly make Rands-
burg the greatest camp in the west.
This seems to be the verdict of all
who have looked carefully into the
possibilities of the place. Just at
present it would seem that a scarcity
OF water could not be. When l left
Randsburg Monday morning it had
been raining 20 hours. The water
was rushing down the hills into the
lake below at great rate. The roads
are in bad condition.
Very little has been said of the So
cial conditions of Randsburg, and
probably the least said on the sub.
ject the better, although there is a
gradual gathering in the camp of
another class. We have a Sunday
school, and will soon have district
school. A petition is now before Su-
perintendent Harrell of Kern county
representing 40 census children, and
asking that district be formed at
Randsburg.
Owen Owens, one of the best min
ers in this county, spent several

BESSiE'S GREAT SACRIFICE.
She Felt Sorry for Baby Who Had No
Doll,

The stockings had been hung up and
the little ones gathered around the
hearth to hear mamma tell the story
of the Babe of Bethlehem, says the
New York World. Their small faces
expressed profound sympathy when
they heard how the Son of God was
born in stable, how He lay on a bed
of straw, how He shivered in the cool
December night and how His life was
in danger from the wicked ITerod. Lit
tie Bessie seemed 10 be particularly i'm
pressed. She said nothing, but one
could see that she was thinking hard.
When, half an hour later, mamma
came TO Bessie's bed to kiss her good
night, sho found the child pressing her
doll to her bosom and gazing at it with
unutterable affection. AS she stopped
over the bed Bessie looked up and
asked, earnestly: Mamma, amt God s
baby got any dolly?"
no." replied the mother, smiling.
Bessie looked at her doll again and
Rugged it. Then conflicting emotions
showed themselves ON the little face.
After a long silence the child raised
her eyes, which had such an expression
as those of the martyrs must have worn
at the stake, and said, firmly: Take
it to Him, mamma"
Closing her eyes tight Bessie laid the
doll in her mothers hands and buried
her face in the pillow to try to forget
the great sacrifice she had made.

FATAL RUNAWAY.

Saturday July 3rd was the day set
for the !onestown Sunday School and
invited friends, to celebrate Independ-
ence day, but before the people had
hardly gathered in the grove an acci-
dent happened which caused the
death Of one of their number. Robert
Fahringer, Dave Runyon and Earnest
Chaplin were gathering milk and haul
ing supplies to the grove, when the
team they we're driving became scared
and ran away. Fahringer and Runyan
were on the seat and both held on
the lines until the horses got loose
from the wagon, when both were pull
ed out in front. Robert Fahringer's
head struck the wing wall of the Pine
creek bridge, crushing his skull. He
only lived about twenty minutes, and
never regained consciousness. Davie
Runyan was more fortunate, he only
received some severe bruises Earnest
Chaplin, the other occupant Of the
wagon who was in behind, seeing an
accident, was inevitable, jumped out
behind, receiving severe bruise on
his right arm and shoulder. Chaplin at
once went for assistance, and all was
done possible, for the other boys.
Robert Fahringer, youngest son of
Isaac Fahringer, of Jamestown, and
about I6 years of age although young
in years he was gentleman in every
respect, always ready to do favor for
anyone, never hasty and loved and
respected by all who knew MIN. His
boon companions will miss him, his
Sunday School Class will have vacant
seat, but his father and mother will
miss him, as only they themselves will
know, while his brothers and sisters
when they come home will not see
his smiling face and hear his cheerful
welcome but God who directs al
things has SO wished it.
The remains were laid to rest ir
the St. James cemetery on Tuesda,
| afternoon.

Boys Story Of Torture.
Covered With Burns He Tells Of Tramps
Outrage.

If the story told by Willie Turner,
a Ia-year-old boy, living with his
parents on the outskirts of Scranton,
is true, two tramps are guilty of
brutal crime. Young Turner lives in
the vicinity of Nay Aug Park, a large,
unimproved tract,
Entirely naked and with his limbs
and body covered with burns, he ap-
peared at his parents home. He was
nearly exhausted and said two tramps
who were cooking in the woods sur
rounding the park had stolen his
clothing, tortured him over the flames
and then turned him loose. The police
are dubious about young Turner's
story, but are searching for the tramps.
The remains of small fire were found
in locality described by the boy.
