WHAT GOULD BE DONE.
How Carson Can Gain Lost
Ground.

The meeting of the business men on
Monday night has awakened consider
able interest and each Of them is think
ing what can be done to benefit Carson
IN a business way in the near future.
The problem of dra wing trade to the
capital city is the first proposition that
is worrying the merchants. They rea-
lie that a number of industries have
died out in this city and have taken
capital away. The only way to work
that trade back is to build industries
that will give employment to men.
There is a proposition On foot by sew
eral capitalists to construct a smelter
on the Carson river. Should they fail
to erect the plant, The Carson people
should take the matter in hand and
see what a be done. There are
many small claims of rich coppes ore
along the river and nearly all Of the
property is held by Carson people.
While no one mine yet discovered can
supply a smelter in itself, Yet the manv
that are uncovered could, and would
keep a reduction plant going. The
smelter and the mines would give en-
ployment, make paydays and that will
make the desired influx of people that
the improvement Club is endeavorinn
to bring about.
The box factory here has shut down
and it is only . matter of a very short
tme when the electric plant will close
Tor good. An electric ligh: plant with
an l~ncandescent system will paw. It's
cheaper to make electricity than any
other iIluminant and will Fay interest
on a smaller outlay Of money, provide
power for butcher shops and other
places using machinery. Such a svs-
tenn would Oon find a ready market.
This will make paydays-the point de-
sired.
The Chamber OF Commerce. as suo-
gested, could handle these matters and
should be formed TO do it and if the
business men take the matter in hand
1t Will pay and TO q profit. 1t should
gwen a try and immcdi late action
on the matter.

BLEW W HIS BRAINS
Pierinne Of Dayton Com
mits Suicide

About half past : o'clock Yesterday
afternoon f. Pierlnne, a well known
saloon keeper and rancher of DAYTON,
committed suicide by shooting himself
in the head with a 80 calibre pis .ol
The act was committed in a room 10
Mrs. Rafetto's house.
Pierinne came to town yesterday
from Virginia City, where he has been
staying for a few days and was about
town during the morning. He went to
Mrs. RafettO's place after the lunch
hour and was apparently well, as those
about the place ~conversed with him
and the only thing be complained Of
was not feeling very well, as he said be
had been up late and wanted sleep.
He retired to q room about one O'Clock
and at half past two the inmates Of the
house were startled by hcar.or the re-
port of a pistol in the rnn,.I occupied
by him. The door wa gI.1.., thrown
open and Pierinne was iru:tl dead on
the bed in the room.
MADE PRLr.ntTln<S
Mr.. Pierinnne had ~o,.uently made
all preparations for his ghasnv deed, as
his coat and hat were off and he had
his shoes. A pistol lay near
his head where it had fallen and a bull
let hole in the right temple told the
story. The shot must have killed him
instantly, as there were no signs of a
struggle, one hand resting over his
head and the other at his side. The
Sheriff and Coroner Stone were soon
at the scene and a search of the dead
man revealed that he had $3.50 on his
person besides a number of papers.
There can only be one cause for the
suicide and that is i'll health. He had
been bothered for some time past With
partial paralysis OF the left side Of the
face and was constantly COMPLAINING of
Ill health. Mr.. Pierinne was a son-in,
Of Mrs. Rafetto, having married
daughter Louise about ten wears
ago. They have four children. who
were at their home III Virginia when the
tragedy occurred.
Mr.. Plerlnne was a member in good
standing in the Dayton lodge Of X. Of
and was considered one OF the
staunch business men of that commun-l
.ty. He sold his saloon property there
time ago and was conducting a
which he owned. He was we'll
and tavorably known in Carson and
1ls death is regarded as an act of q
ick man by his many friends here.
he lately moved to Virginia CITY and
las been conducting a saloon there.
he dead mans family arrived in this
lty by private conveyance late yester-
afternoon.

POTATO EXPERIMENT.

An interesting experiment was once
made by Professor Sturtevant to ascer-
tain the depth to which the potato sends
its roots after food Early i'm August
he selected a potato plant which was
growing ON a high ridge, the seed hav-
ing been planted six inches deep. BY
digging a trench alongside so as to ex-
pose section of the soil, and then
washing out the roots with a stream of
water, he found one root reaching
thirty-four inches below the top of the
ridge, or twenty eight inches below the
tubers, or twenty-five inches below the
surface of the ground between the
ridges. The deeper roots appeared more
fhrous than those that were near the
surface. and they diminished very lit
tie in size after attaining distance OF
SIX inches from the stem. A very few
roots We're found above the tubers. and
such as We're found were short and
thick.
