Agent Allen has filed his report at
Washington and recommends that
reservation be set apart in the vicinity
of the lake He thinks the reservation
should include the lands on the upper
Truckee river and the head waters of
the Costumes and American rivers.
If this recommendation is carried
into effect it will probably interfere
with the numbering operations now be-
ing carried on in the vicinity of Lake
Tahoe. The lake is the largest body of
water high up in the Sierra Nevada
and the scenery in the vicinity is the
grandest in the mountains Tourists
from all parts of the country visit the
lake in the summer season and one or
more steamers ply in its waters. 1t is
the source of the Truckee river, which
has the distinction of rising in lake
which has no other outlet, and sinking
in Pyramid lake, which has no outlet
whatever, the immense volume of
water which empties into it in the
spring and early summer, evaporating
later in the season.

BOISE MAN ARRESTED.
:. B. Herring Charged With EN-
bezzlins Newspaper Funds.

Marcus 3. Herring of Boise was ar
rested here last night on a charge of
embezzlement, by Sheriff Mont Oliver
of that city. The charge is preferred
by Frank Walton, editor and manager
Of the Boise Sentinel and it is claimed
that Herring's populations will amount
to about 81 900. The man was employed
as a travelling solicitor for the Sentinel,
and. about two and one-half months
ago he quit turning in money and max
ing reports, but kept on soliciting and
collecting 1t is claimed that since
that time he has travelled over a good
portion of Idaho and made a good
many collections for the Sentinel in
the Palouse country, and also in and
about Dillon, Mont. AS the Sentinel is
a weekly paper, it was quite awhile
before his work was discovered, and
even now the extent of it is not know n.
Sheriff Oliver has been trying to locate
him for couple of months. On Thurs
day he learned that he had been seen
in Salt Lake, but that he was prob
ably coming north. The sheriff wired
to all the towns along the line between
Boise and Denver. and started for Salt
Lake, where he arrived Saturday. He
there found that Herring had done
some soliciting for the Sentinel and
had collected some money in advance.
He found that Herring had registered
at the Cullen on Dec. - as w. H. Ham.
The next day he had moved to the
Walker and registered as W. H. Wal
lace. At yet another place during his
stay in Salt Lake he, registered as T.
Walton,- which is the name of the edi-
tor. and manager of the Boise Sentinel.
Herring arrived in Ogden Friday and
registered at the European as w. How
ard. Wherever he registered he regis
tered as from Idaho and it was by
means, of his spenmanship in this word
that@the sheriff was able to trace him.
Yesterday afternoon when the. sheriff
was still in Salt Lake the Ogden police
telephoned him thatSthe man had been
discovered and would probably be ar
rested in an hour. or two. oliver came
on north reaching Ogden at 1880, but
in the meantime Herring had given tbs
officers the slip and the sheriff " g
obliged to- stop over. While walking
/. down the street between, IL and II
/. O clock, oliver CHANGED to meet his man
whom he recognized and arrested at
once, ~
Herring is man about 80 years of
age, has a wife and children in Boise,
and lcame originally from Waco, Tex
His father was quite wealthy, but he
and the SON Quarreled some time age
and have. been living. apart Herring s
father died about three weeks ago, but
+ the young man is not aware of this
fact He has agreed to go back tic
Idaho without extradition papers and
seems confident that his folks will
make good his shortages.

THE UBER LYNcHERs.
Reward Makes 1t Probable That
Some Can Be Mailed.

Some Can Be Mailed.
Carson News: When the governor
yesterday afternoon promised that he
would offer a reward for the men who
murdered Adam Uber he meant bust
ness, and the proclamation was sent to
the printer today. It reads:
by virtue of the authority in me
vested by the constitution and laws of
the. state of Nevada, l. Reinhold Sad
Ter, lieutenant and acting governor of
the state of Nevada, do hereby issue
the following proclamation and offer a
reward of $500 to be paid for the arrest
or any of the persons, who, in violation
of the laws of Nevada, who lynched
one Adam Uber at Genoa, Douglas
county, on the morning of Dec. s, 1897.
THE above reward will be paid at
Carson City, New, to the person or per-
sons entitled thereto"
The governor in making that pay
able for the conviction of any of the
persons in that mob of murderers, has
put the matter in a light that some one
is going to be nipped. 1t would be al
most impossible to get the whole two
score, but it is a dead sure thing that
one or more can be nailed.
There is now more travel from Gard
nerville through Carson than ever be-
fore, and several of our Douglas county
neighbors have taken the train for
other parts OF course they all say they
are coming back, but wag remarked
on the street today that when the grand
jury met in Genoa there wouldn't be
enough of that diSreputable crowd left
to make a mess.

Rock Springs Independent: Tuesday
night at about 8 o'clock the slaughter
house of Gregory & Whelan burned to
the ground, entailing a loss amounting
in the aggregate to $1,000. Happening
when it did, the blow falls most Sc

by two men on horseback, and ordered
to throw up his hands, which, being
done, the men found the stage empty,

They declare that it was a previously con-
cents to gather about them gang of
pugs and convert the game into a slug
ging match in case they saw defeat star
ing them in the face. The published state
ment of the Crescentssis secuted, for the
reason that they attempt to carry the
idea that the umpire was justified in
awarding the ball to the Salt Lakers, as
against the decision of the referee. and
also because they are SO reckless as to
state that the referee did not see the play.
Their men were not keeping cases on the
retire when it was claimed q tumble was
made, but the referee was in q position to
know Just what had occurred.
A return game is anxiously hoped for,
and that to be played in Provo. It will be
literally patronized and Provo sports will
be on hand to back the boys of the blue

THE PROVO ADMINISTRATION.
The OUTGOING Council Has Made
Good Record.

Provo. Dec. 26.-Provo's outgoing city
council has been busy during the past
week preparing to turn over the affairs
of the city to the newly elected. The
record made by the city officials during
the past TWO years shows that this is one
of the best administrations in the history
OF the Garden City. a great deal has been
said about mossbackism and lack of en-
terprise on the part of our city fathers.
but in the summing up we find them de-
serving of high praise. They have re-
lieved the city of nearly $4,000 indebted
ness by pursuing conservative and careful
methods have established sinking fund
which will each year cut down the water
works bonds about the same amount. and
have taken precautions to avoid expensive
litigation, which has hitherto been bur-
den to the city.
It car safely be stated that financially
the city is in Is per cent better condition
than when they took charge of the city
government. They have been notably
free from favoritism and never has a
charge been made that they have used
their official influence in furthering their
own private interests
One of the pleasantest social affairs of
the holiday season was the ball given by
q committee of society people, which took
place at the Southworth hall Christmas
night There were about 20 couples pres
ent. which included the greater portion
of ProVo's society.

Sugar Factory Talk.

Joseph Clark and David Eccles will
leave soon for California, to look into
the beet sugar industry in that state,
and possibly to contract for the ma
chinery for the Ogden plant. The idea
that the plant will be located at the
old race track grounds, is growing in
favor. The site is an ideal one, except
that it lacks perfect water right
However, it is stated that the heaviest
use of water in the process of sugar
making occurs after the irrigation sea-
son is over, and that an ample water
right can be secured from some of the
irrigation companies, say Uintah or
Riverdale.
