A great commotion seems to have
taken place among railway circles
owing to the contemplated through
car service between the Pacific Coast
and Chicago which is operating one
day each week. This is not a new de-
parture by any means, as the Denver
& Rio Grande Railroad Company and
its connections have been operating a
through car service between the Pa
cific and Atlantic Coast via. Salt Lake
Pueblo, Denver, Kansas City and
Chico 20 for years, and three Ola, g
each week, viz. every Wednesday,
Thursday and Friday evening. The
cars for this through service are Of
the latest Pullman design. and are
supplied with clean linen and bedding
throughout. A Pullman porter is as
signed to each car. These cars are
also under the personal supervision
of a Special Excursion Agent,
whose duty it is to see that passen-
gers are given every comfort and at
tention. For further information, ap-

Death OF K. G. Handy.

Mrp. Miller, Of the Elko laundry,
received news Tuesday from her
brother at Richfield, WISCONSIN, that
her father, Mr.. E. G. Hardy, had
died ut Alexandria, Minnesota, on
the 7Sh Of this month. The deceased
was an old resident OF this county,
having first come here from Boise,
Idaho, in 1869. After remaining
here for few years he returned to
Boise and in 1873 removed again to
Elko county and lived here until
1891.
Mr.. Hardy conducted the Oasis
stock ranch near Toano for many
years and dealt largely in fine blooded
horses. The hard winter of 80 and
81 crippled him financially and he
was forced to give up his ranch.
When the rev erse Of fortune came, he
sought other fields and finally drifted
back to his old home in Wisconsin.
The deceased was prominently
identified with Elso county from
1873 to 1895. He took an active in
terest i'll public affairs and was one of
the county's most enterprising citi-
zens. His many good traits endeared
hun to large circle Of friends who
will be saddened by the news of his
death.
He is gone, but not forgotten.

One would have supposed that
Kansas had exhausted the list of
troubles, but according to the Indian
apolis Journal, new one has arisen
there. 1t is between preachers and
Justices OF the peace over the fees to
be charged for performing the mar
riage ceremony. A new law limits a
justices charge to $50, whereas
they used to charge s5. The
preachers, who depend on voluntary
fees, complain that tbs justices are
getting all the business by reason Of
their low rates.. As there is little
margin for profit to the justices, and
no chance for scalping by preachers
the difficulty appears to be irrecon.

OLD Shakers SPECIALITY.
He Has n Trio of Attributes Which
Make Him Unique.

Make Him Unique.
Logan county boasts of one of the
unique characters in Kentucky in the
person of Lorenzo Pearcifield, who
since childhood has been an honored
member of the Shaker community at
South Union, says the Louisville Cour-
ier-Journal. Mr.. Pearcifeld is now close
on to 70 years of age and weighs about
300 pounds.
There is not another man in Logan OF
any other county, so far as is known,
who is 70 years old and weighs 800
pounds, who is noted as the most sue
cessfui horse breaker in his section.
Yet this is true of the colossal old
Shaker. The secret of his success in
this direction seems to lie in his great
courage and strength. He is absolute
ly fearless and almost as strong as an
ordinary horse. He has a system all
his own, which consists in first demon
strating to the perfect satisfaction of
the horse that he is master of The stu
alton. To do this it is sometimes neces-
sary to throw the horse down and sit
upon his head, which Mr.. Pearcifield
does in the most approved style. After
300 pounds has sat upon his horseship's
head for a little while he is satisfied
Mr.. Pearcifield then bitches him to his
little cart and drives about and looks
at the country. So great is his fame as
a tanner of wild horses that the farmers
for miles around bring him unman-
ageable horses to break, and none has
bathed his skill and strength.

Tho CoantryEd,.or.

Tho New York Dispatch Is one OF
those great metropolitan newspapers
which recognizes in tho country press
a factor no less important and potent
IN its sphere than the more preten-
tious and ambitious leading daiiies,
and is magnanimous enough to pay
its country co-relatives the following
deserved tribute:
The country editor is a combination
OF the entire staff OF city newspaper.
His sphere Of usefulness, though not
80 ubiquitous, istquite as important
as that of the great contemporaries.
His single weekly paper is in nina.
ture the seven issues per week of the
great daiIes. His constituency is Of
ten the most moral and high minded
to be found in the domain OF history.
He reaches the homes of brain and
Drawn that send to the colleges and
cities the great, wel-balanced men of
the age.
He may not uproot social scandal;
expose corruption, tear down relig-
ious and political parties, create en-
pires or crush dynasties, but he
reaches and inauen ces the majority
Of the army of boys who, in after
years, fight the great battles in the
pulpit, at the bar, in the hospital. and
even become his most distinguished
co workers in journalism.
The country editor may take wood
and potatoes for his subscription
price, but never lies about his circu-
lation. He may mention in detail the
construction Of country barns and the
intervisitation of unim portant pump
kins, but he makes no attempt to
build his fortune on scandals, broken
homes, nasty twaddle and undue pry-
ing into private life.
He may write wretched English
and deplorable grammer, but he never
talks OF "innocous desuetude" and
masterful" efforts. He may publish
three pages OF patent insides to one
OF original matter, but he never steals
the news and brains of others be-
cause a geographical difference Of
time favors his location. He may set
his own type and turn the crank of
his own press, but he never scales
down the wages of his employees, nor
treats printers like cattle, nor pays
starvation wages to reporters.
He may deplore certain local usages
and want Of appreciation of his col
umns by business men, but he never
pursues people who haze. no means
for a reply with vindictive hate, vile
cartoons and outrageous persecu.
ton to the grave. He is not wrecker
of lives nor scandal monger, nor a
party political paltroon, nor bribe
taker, nor washer Of dirty linen
Whatever his mistakes, troubles and
ludicrous exhibitions at times, the
country editor is an honest, painstak-
ing citizen; one of the most potent
factors in the higher civilization of
the age.

FIRE-PROOF WOOD IN WARSHTPS.
The war with Spain his already
furnished some notable examples of
the value of tire-proof wood on board
ships of war, says the Army and
Navy journal. The report show that
in the engagement at Cardenas, the
Winslow was in all probability spared
that under the severest exposure none
of the wood work ignited And the
same condition prevailed on board
the Wilmington. The report showed
that there was a menacing fire on the
deck of the Iowa, which ship, though
partly fire-proof, had its deck laid be-
fore the electric tire-proof process was
adopted by the Navy Department.
There is likely to be no stronger argu-
ment in behalf of the process than
the actual demonstrations during the
engagement of the present war. The
disastrous effects to vessels taking
part in naval engagement are great
ly multiplied by not using fire-proof
wood in construction, and the dangers
are minimiZed to an equal degree on
the ships the wood of which has been
treated by the process. Among the
vessels of the North Atlantic feet
on which the wood has been subject
ed to the electric fire-proofiing are the
Helena, Wilmington, Vicksburg, An
napolis, Newport, Princeton, Nashville
and Miantonomoh.
