during all the voyage until the capes
which mark the entrance to the harbor
were almost in sight when the wind
began to freshen and come In fitful
gusts.
The schooner was holding well up to
the northeast to get a good slant OF
wind for the port after taking bearings
from the Farallone Light. The wind,
which had been pretty brisk at the
break of day, kept increasing and a
few hours after the sun broke through
the banks of fog clouds in the casts
ward it was almost blowing a hurri-
cane from the northwest.
When nearly abreast of Point Reyes
the vessels course was changed and
she was bowling in toward the harbors
with the wind almost astern.
Suddenly and almost directly ahead
of the vessel there arose a great, tall
column of water.
For a moment it stood almost direct-
ly in the track of the schooner and
only a few yards in advance of it's jib-
boom. Just as the vessel seemed about
to pierce it, it moved slowly from the
schooner, then swung off to starboard.
Captain Rice ordered the helm hard
over, to pass to port of the column,
and at the same time jumped down
from the poop deck to give the men N
hand in hauling up the sheets.
The work was hardly half done and
the jibs and mainsais were Tapping in
the wind, when the great column OF
water changed it's course and came
swirling back toward the schooner aa
if to strike it almost amidships.
This time it came racing over the
ocean with a roar and with the speed
of an express train. The sailors
dropped the ropes on which they were
| hauling and sought the protection OF
the heavy beams of the forecastle head
from the spars of the rigging that they
expected the next moment would be-
torn from the vessel and come tum-
bling down, a mass of wreckage, on
| the deck.
Almost before the men could reach
the shelter the vessel was caught In
| the vortex of air which accompanied
the mighty twisting column of water.
and she spung around like top lurch~
ing her port side under the water as
| she went. The vessels stern swung
into the twirling base Of the waters
spout and it was lifted high in the air
while the bow sunk down into the
waves and the water rushed in on the
sailors over the bulwarks forward
1t was only fot an instant, but in
| that instant there was a cracking of
| timbers, and the little heavily laden
vessel groaned as though the life were
| being choked out OF her. There was a
| loud report of smashing timbers in the
| midst of il all Then the vessels bow
rose, and with a quick roll to starboard
! that put her almost on her beam end
! the vessel sprung around, the water
| spout travelling almost parallel to hen
inclined decks. The point of the jib~
boom all but pdked into the twisting
| column as the schooner twirled around
| Slowly the schooner righted and
when she camel 10 an even keel the
waterspout was well off to starboard
of the vessel and travelling rapidly
away. All danger to the vessel was
| past, and the greatest surprise to thA
crew was the little damage that h7
been done. y

ADDRESS BY T. C. HAYES.
Spoke Upon the Benefits of the Cath
olic Benevolent Legion.

Thomas c. Hayes, of Brooklyn n.
Y, deputy supreme chancellor of the
Catholic Benevolent leagu"H addressed
a gathering of Catholic men in st.
Thomas College hall yesterday after
noon on the benefits accruing from
membership in the organization. He ex-
poets to organize a council in this city
as soon as he has a sentiment in it's
favor sufficiently aroused.
The Catholic Benevolent legion was
organized in Brooklyn, N. Y, in 1881
and after an existence of nineteen
years now has a membership of 10000
extending over twenty-eight states and
Canada. There are 1000 members in
this state. All Catholic men of good
moral character between the ages of
IS and So are eligible to membership
and may take out insurance from $500
to $4,000.
A feature of the organization is the
expectancy feature, by means of which
a member may, upon reaching his six
ty-fifk, year, take out half of his
amount. Mr.. Hayes feels that there
is room in this city for another in
surance organization.

CONCERNING TRIB.
A Statement From the Proprietors.

We coined the word, Trib, our trade
mark, which appears upon the label of
each bottle of our liniment.
Our product is acombination of vari-
GUS substances, some of which are COM
mon drugs. We do not further state
the sources, or methods of obtaining
and preparing, the ingredients. A
portion of the combination is to be
kept secret at present. We say this
for the benefit of inquirers. Trib has
already been used successfully in more
than ten thousand cases in Nevada.
No injury has occurred in any case.
We offer our record. Those who use
Trib Including some physicians of the
best standing) are satisfied.
We do not recommend Trib to be
taken inwardly. Though it contains
no narcotics; we offer it for outward
use only. 1t may be used for sprains,
bruises, stiffness of muscles, and SINH
lar ailments, and for relief in some
cases of rheumatism:
For chilblains, chafings and blisters;
and for the relief of hives.
For frost-bite, and for burns and
scalds where the exposed surface is not
SO great as to make use of liniment
dangerous:
For insect bites and stings, for thorn
wounds, and for sores.
Many cyclers, some athletes and
some pugilists have used Trib success
fully. Those who know best do not
ssbathe" in it, even when using it as a

Politics in Irrigation.

The question of the reclamation of
the arid lands by the government has
become SO vital that many of the State
political platforms in the arid region
have declared in favor of such policy,
while at Philadelphia the national
platform of the Republicans contained
the following plank: eve recommend
adequate National legislation to re-
claim the arid lands of the United
States, reserving control of the distri-
button of water for irrigation to the
respective States and Territories
While it may argue well for cause
that it is considered of sufficient ma
tional Importance to declare for it in
the platform of great political party,
the question itself is not one which
should be dragged into politics. The
National Irrigation movement is one
which can be and is being combined
upon by all parties. 1t is question as
vitality interesting to the western DEM
ocrat as to his Republican or Populist
neighbor and no matter what differ
ences of opinion may be held upon
other issues, all can agree upon the
proposition that the reclamation of the
arid lands of the West is subject for
consideration and solution by Con-
gress. 1t is to be hoped that the move
ment looking to the building of stor-
age reservoirs by the government and
the conquest of Arid America will stand

A GREAT CELEBRATION.
The l24th Anniversary Fittingly Oh.
served in Gardnerville.

just elgnt years ago Gardnerville
held her first Fourth of July celebra-
ton. In those eight years the place
has grown from a small wayside sta
ton to thriving town of considerable
commercial importance, and it is now
well understood that Gardnerville is
leader on all occasions. This fact was
again manifest last Wednesday, when
we held a monster patriotic carnival
that was a surprise to hundreds of visi-
tors from the surrounding country.
The day was perfect, there being a
gentle breeze, just enough for comfort
and pleasure, and the crowd was the
largest ever seen in Gardnerville.
The parade at 2 p. NJ. pleased every
body and many words of praise were
heard on every side. The car of State
was a magnificent feature on which
was Miss Clara Dangberg as the God
dess of Liberty and Willie Ezell repre-
sented Uncle Sam. Forty-five little
girls sitting in rows on each side of the
wagon represented the different States.
The float was drawn by four gentle
horses driven by G. G. Henningsen.
On the back of each horse was a little
boy bedecked with the national colors
and adding to the beauty and conspic-
uousness of the float. sit is just as
nice as it can be- was the comment of
all who saw it, and much credit is due
to the ladies who arranged this feature
of the parade.
The Douglas County Creamery and
nearly all the business houses OF Gard
nerville were represented in the parade
by floats, all of which were very nice
and duly admired.
During the literary exercises Val
halla hall was densely packed with
people. Mr.. Turner read the Declare
ton of Independence and the Grafton
by Mr.. Packard was listened to with
interest. Then there was music by
the band and song by the children.
Senator Martin made few appropri-
ate remarks, which were followed by
more music by the Band and recita-
tons by the Misses Harris, Miller and
Todd.
The s'Horribles'' came in on time
and caused ripple oflaughter all along
the line, after which there were num-
erous games and races.
The ball game took place in the fore
i A x,sat IL. fhxa
Empire team.
The three legged race was won by
Chas. Kitzmeyer and Jake Muller of
Carson. Mr.. Muller also won the BIZ
cycle race. The foot race and the sack
race were won by Geo. Russell, recent
ly from California.
The Rosenbroek horse was the swift
est in the trotting race and the Dodson
horse carried Off the honors and the
purse in the running race.
Nobody was able to climb the creased
pole.
A choice selection of fireworks were
displayed in the evening.
The dance in the pavilion was a de-
lightful affair. The pavilion was beau
tifully decorated with evergreens, flags
and bunting and the large platform
was crowded with dancers all night
long.
The large crowd seemed to thor
oughly enjoy the occasion and the
visitors were made to feel heartily well
come. All in all, the celebration was a
grand success, and demonstrates that
Gardnerville is wide-awake and en-
terprising town, possessing as much
patriotism as any burg of her size on
the coast.
