Highway Robbery.

Tuesday night rs a Mexican named
B. NJ. Soto was walking by the freight
depot he met a gang OF five or six men,
one OF whom asked for a match. Soto
compiled with the request when the
man who received the match lit It and
two Of the other men at that instant
garroted Soto and went through him,
taking what money he had, six dollars,
and his hat. They then gave him a
slloy e and disappeared in the darkness.
The locality seems to he a favored one
for highwayinen as every late case OF
holdup has occurred at that point. No
trace has been found of the robbers.
The hat taken is a Mexican cowboy hat
Of slate color, Soto says, high In the
crown. One of the robbers is a blond
and the other wore a black mustache
and Soto can give no further description
but says he would know the men. Soto
was stranded in Reno last week and the

The incorporation OF the farmers of
Carson Valley last Saturday into water
storage company is the result OF a long
felt and distressing need for a greater
water supply. 1t is "a move in the right
direction, and If handled with the same
business acumen that has characterized
the building up OF the Creamery Com
pany, portends such a speedy develope-
ment OF the Great Carson Valley as even
its best wishers could have hoped for.
Every thousand acre feet OF stored water
in the Alpine water shed, means fifteen
thousand dollars more OF taxable proper
ty to this county, and every acre OF arid
land so reclaimed means a great deal to
the State. For every acre Of land irri-
gated in Carson Valley, by stored water,
other portions of Nevada in emulating
the enterprising example OF Carson
Valley will reclaim fifty acres it is very
safe to say.-Gsrdnerville Record.

Battle With Coyotes.

William Mckinstry, a prospector from
bonneville, had a fierce battle with
coyotes one nis hit last week in which he
nearly lost his life. McKinstry WAS on
his way north and had reached II point
about sixteen miles west OF Sand Springs
10 Churchill county on the road to the
upper Carson sink. Here he camped for
the night, after stalking out the two
burros which carried his outfit. After
lighting a fire and cooking supper he lay
down to sleep, but had not slurabered
long before he was awakened by the
noise OF coyotes gnawing at his saddles,
upon one of which his head was resting.
McKinstry reached for his rifle which
lay neal at hand, but before he could
seize it, q pack OF coyotes numbering not
less than seven were upon him, scratch
ing, biting and tearing at the arms, ia 9
and clothing Of the unfortunate prov
psctor. By desperate effort, McKinstry
managed to get hold Of the bowie-knife,
and striking out or all sides, managed
to drive his dagger into the throat or
heart OF three of them which he thereby
killed and wounded the other members
of the pack more or less, whereupon
they fed leaving McKiustry master OF
the station. McKinsty arrived at Hills
Station Wednesday afternoon in a badly
dilapidated condition. His face and
hands were deeply gashed and SCARED
and his blue flannel overshirt torn to
tatters. The occurrence was q singular
one, inasmuch as it is rare to hear of 8
coyote attacking a human being, unless
it be a child, although our California
exchanges OF last week related a some
what similar occurrence wherein a young
man named McKerras, a resident o.
Sierra county. was attacked by two coy
otes, but was rescued by a couple of dog
which we're with him.-Va. Report.

 l can see before. me a beautiful child 5. years old. Her mother was like pic- ture; but, like most pictures, there was no heart in it. Her father was a gen. tleman, and seeing his wife's faults, he managed to cater to them without los- ing his own dignity. His pride pro- tected him. But one day this baby of 5, looking like it's beautiful mother and with the quickness of wit that belonged to its father, when asked where she had been all day, said, 'sOh, have been showing myself with the devil. but I am glad now that the good angel has come home!" That is the child of the century. Sometimes she conceals her feelings and lives a morbid life that makes her sarcastic when 12 years old and an unbeliever when she is 15.

Trustees to Meet to Prepare to Defend
the New Law.

The township trustees are taking active
steps to defend the constitutionality of the
law changing the time for the election of
trustees and township assessors from
November, $685. to November, 1900 The
committee Of ten appointed at the Janu-
airy meeting of the trustees to take charge
of any litigation that might arise on the
subject will hold a meeting on Friday,
at which time conference will be had with
attorneys and arrangements completed for
resisting the suit recently brought at Co
lumbia City to test the law by Thomas r.
Marshall, member Of the Democratic state
committee. The trustees claim that nine
of the members of the Democratic state
committee had agreed that the law should
not be contested in the courts and that
Mr.. Marshall, who refused to join in the
agreement, had brought the suit on his own
responsibility. The story told by Democrat
ic politicians is different, however. They
say the state committee appointed a SUBJ
committee to consider the subject and that
upon the report of the subcommittee Mr..
Marshall was authorized to bring the suit.
1t is expected that the Whitley county
court will make an early decision and that
an opinion may be obtained from the SUI
preme Court by June l. In the meantime
many of the township conventions will be
held and great perplexity exists among the
Democrats as to whether nominations
should be made for trustee and assessor.
The Republicans have adopted a waiting
policy or, acting on the presumption that
the law is constitutional, will nominate only
justices of the peace and constables. There
is much legal opinion going to show that
the law is constitutional

THE COLORED CAKE WALK.
A Big Crowd and Only an Ordinary
Performance.

Several weeks ago Frank S. Chance an
nounced that he proposed to give colored
cake walk at Tomlinson Hall. He succeeded
in finding forty or fifty local colored men
and women who were willing to exhibit
themselves and compete for the prizes
offered. The event came off last night. The
hall was crowded. In order to hold the
crowd for the cake walk the management
had provided some buck and wing dancing,
a prize quadrille and a comic cake walk.
The latter event was something of fiZzle,
as but two couples took part in this per-
formance. These were men, two Of them
being garbed in the attire of women. What
there was of this exhibition struck the audi
ence as being quite ludicrous and it laughed.
The different events on the programme were
interspersed with music by a brass band
and an organization which the programme
described as the 'Plunger Quartet" The
quartet was composed of colored men who
sang "On the Banks of the Wabash" and
other airs
Curtis Harris, q dapper young colored
man, led the cake walk. There were seven
couples in the walk, which was announced
as full dress affair. The judges who
were Charles Zimmerman, Thomas Doyle
and Nelson B. (ISid) Hughes, awarded the
prize to John Goodall and Sue Yeager.
son gave an exhibition performance in cake
walking. The walkers stepped to the music
of an orchestra which kept fairly good time.
After the cake walk it was announced that
the floor would be given up to dancing if
any cared to remain. The greater part of
the audience, however, was prepared to quit
the hall and did SO. The performance will
not be repeated.
