For Early Melons.

Melon vines cannot be transplanted
successfully, hence we have to adopt
some other means to start them il early
melons are wanted. Select tough
sod (such as is usually found in old past
ures-it should consist OF black loam)
and cut into pieces from six to eight in
ches square and about four inches
thick. Place the grassy side down and
close together, so as to form level bed
Plant about May l, and put from six to
ten seeds in each sod. When the plants
throw out their second leaves thin them
down to four in hill, and when they
are ready TO be moved TO the field thin
them again by taking out the weakest
plant of each hill, leaving three plants
to grow.
When ready to be removed to the
field, mark the ground six feet each
way and set out, placing the sod about
two inches below the surface of the
ground.
When tho vines cover the ground and
the melons begin to form cut path be-
tween every second row, and always
walk in these paths while picking and
carrying out melons. Elk.

A special correspondent to the Des-

Kanosh, Gtah: Tired and disappoint-
ed, the last of the faithful band of
searchers for the bodies OF +. w. and

evening, and the black pail of mystery
settles heavier than three months ago,
as to the going of husband and son of

The news that the wagon and team
of the missing men had been found
near Silver City IS now discredited.
Parties who are suspected of commit
ting the murder were last seen in that
locality, and descriptions of them have
been scattered broadcast around the
country. 1t is probable, however, that
they have long since made good their
escape.

Joe Della, who has been serving 20
year sentence in the State penitentiary,
was rele sed last week by the Supreme
Court on writ OF habeas corpus. The
facts connected with the case are some-
what peculiar.
In August, 1895, Della was living in
Delamar, Lincoln county. One day a
Piute girl named Liza was found dead
in wagon-box, which Della used as a
sleeping apartment. Her body bore
evidences of assault, and as she was
under IA years of age, he was indicted
for murder.
On his trial, the judge instructed the
jury that If it believed the girl had died
from wounds administered by Joe Della
whilst violating her person, she being
under the age of ii years, he was guilty
of murder in the first degree; but il it
had any reasonable doubt as to said
wounds causing her death, he should
be found guilty of rape.
The jury, after much deliberation.
brought in verdict against Della for
rape, and Judge Talbot sentenced him
to the States Prison for the term of
20 years. He has several times applied
for release to the State Board of Par
dons, but without success. ATTORNEY
MCGOWAN took the case recently to the
Supreme Court, AS it is a we'll settled
principle OF law that a man cannot be
indicted and tried for one orime, and be
convicted OF another, the Court had no
alternative but TO grant his release from
custody.
Assuming that Della was guilty of the
crime of which he was convicted, this
case Is fair example of how the law
sometimes defeats itself by extending to
the criminal the protection that was
intended only for the innocent.

Superintendent Marx, when inter-

the above and stated that he expected
u representative of the company to ar
rive here almost any day to look up the
matter of site for the mill and other de.
tails. 1t is probable that the mill viii
be located near the mine, whore the
ores can be delivered to IL by rope
tram, without hauling. The only OBJ
lection to such location is the lack of
water, which would have to be pumped
from well higher up the canyon.

MILL FOR THE ROBUST.

Salt Lake Tribune; "The manage

whose properties are located at Ely,
Nevada, has decided definitely upon a
new mill, and to that end will begin the
breaking of ground in a short time.
During the winter and since the active
management was taken hold of by MIR.
Marx, formerly of the Dragon mine at
Tintic, the blocking out Of ores has
continued steadily, and the manage
ment now feels that it has enough in
sight to ius~fy it in undertaking the
erection OF an up-to-date plant. The
assay register discloses very high av-
erage In gold, and with the cyanide
process perfectly adapted to tho treat
ment of them. very fine margin
