The officers Of the Southern Pacific
Company are considering . proposition to
equip all OF the Pullman buffet cars o
In use on Its lines with cooking appurten-
ances whereby more elaborate meals may
be served TO passengers than are served st
present. Buffet cars are now run on the
Portland train. the Los Angeles express,
the southern overland and on two Of the
four daily trains east and west bound be-
tween San Francisco and Ogden. Light
lunches and breakfast are served only in
the buffess, and for more substantial meals
passengers are required 10 p~atronize the
eating stations along the road. Many Of
the large Eastern railroads have equipped
the buffets Of their sleeping cars with gas
ranges. which enable passengers to have
chops and steaks grilled 70 order. and the
Southern Pacific Is now considering the
advissbility Of following suit. General
Passenger Agent Goodman says that in all
probability the scheme will be put into
practice. The gas broilers will be fed
with Pintsoh gas stored under pressure In
reservoirs under the cars.

Judge A. Z. Cheney OF Reno has recently
decided o case coming under the provis'
ions Of the new mining law passed BY the
last Nevada Legislature regarding the
amount Of discovery work. etc., now
necessary to be done in the proper ioca-
ton Of Q mining claim.
On May Is, 1897. one Sisson COM
menced the location Of . mining claim
by erecting o location mon umens n
posting a notice. Late in July. with
the assistance Of others, be marked the
boundaries Of the claim and i've days
work was done on . shaft or sut within
its limits. Judge Cheney finds from The
evidence o. to the sh.Junt OF develop
mens work done by Sisson ct al, before
another location wss made by Sommers
ct al, that the shaft referred 10 was
down to . depth not exceeding seven
feet below the lowest point Of the rim ct
the surface, and that this shaft, which
wa about 81 by Al feet at the bottom.
was connected with the surface by Q cut
on . level Q little above the bottom OF
the shaft. From the point where the cut
began on the ~surfsce to the opposite side
Of the shaft was ten feet. This excavs
ton did not cut or expose the lode ct
any place Of . greater depth than eight
feet. II did not run along the lode ; bot
the lode, as discovered, appears to run
diagonally across il. and wss mos exposed
for more than five feet o. its coarse. The
work was then dropped, and more than
90 days after this time Sommers ct al.
made . location covering the same
ground /; whereupon Sisson commenced
IN action Of trespsss and for damages
and an injunction.
In the Judges opinion there was . suf-
6cient discovery Of . lode, marking OF
boundaries, posting of . notice and re.
oording Of . location certificate. prior to
the entry Of Sommers upon the ground,
to entitle Sisson 10 the possession of it.
But he finds that Sisson did not within
80 days after posting the lscstion notice,
or 1t any time before Sommers entered
upon the ground, do the amount Of dis.
eovery work required by the new statute
Judge Cheney concludes THAT, since
the Act Of 1897, il il necessary in this
State to constitute . valid location Of 8
mining claim that the locator shall. with
in 80 days after posting his notice. do
the amount Of Development work required
by that Act. If he does not do 30. the
ground covered by his notice 10 subject
to location by another, no matter how
plain his notice. certain his boundaries,
perfect his record or well defined bis lode
may be. Had Sisson ct al. completed
the required amouns of discovery work
at any time before Sommers ct al. enter.
ed and commenced their location, al
though the 90 days had already elapsed,
they could have maintained their rights. +"

KNOWLEDGE ENOUGH.
Although She Was from Boston She
Cared Not for Higher Sub
ject Than Beans.

Notwithstanding her nose turned up, there
were specs on it, and she was from Boston,
which may be considered to be competent
testimony that heredity isn't everything.
She was visiting in Brooklyn before the hot
spell and the first young man she met was
one who prides himself on his intellectuals.
Whether anyone else does or not is another
story. As it happened, the young man had
an opportunity shortly after the meeting
to talk with the young woman alone, and he
did not fail to throw few brains at her.
"Ah, Miss Sophia" he said, with soulful
yearn in his gentle voice, II presume you at
tend several of the numerous schools of phil
osophy in which Boston is so rich and Brook
lyn is so poor?"
~ am sorry" she hesitated, 'but really,
Mr.. Blank, do not attend any,"
Indeed, and do you feel no interest in
any OF the concepts of modern philosophic
thought"
"None whatever, fear" and she really
seemed to be sorry to. have been so careless
of her golden, glorious opportunities.
And does not the subjective idealism of
existence in delightful Boston profoundly
affect the reality of your Ego?"
$50 far | have not observed that it did, -
she said, apologetically.
How can it be possible?" he exclaimed
1.-The sphere of your knowledge must be far
wider than it is with us.
NO." she answered, measuring her words
carefully. 81 should say it was not. Don't
you know as long as we Bostonians know
beans when the bags open we don't worry
overmuch about the rest of it. Why should
We! Isn't that enough for us to know"
