His Appetite was Like Unto That of
n Billy Goat.

Not 90 very long ago Wallace knight
became the proud possessor OF . fswn-
smild-eyed. gentle creature-which wor
the admiration Of all beholders. and il
soon became q general favorite not only
on Spring street but wherever its fancy
propelled it. Time passed and the gen.
tie fawn grew in stature and also in
assurance. At first il was content Ia
nibble grass, and accepted with gratitude
such succulent herbs as were offered il,
but lately il has cultivated q fondness
for shrubbery, and many dooryards now
bear silent testimony to this lsmentable
failing. Not satisfied with this the ami
NAL developed an Unsuitable appetite for
lace curtains. and certain gauzy articles
Of feminine wearing apparel, which,
however blame-worthy it may have
been. certainly proved his deership had
an artistic taste, aud was possessed oil
an innate love for the beautiful.
Notwithstanding his failings, the deer
had made hosts Of friends in Eureka, and
it was with regret that many Of these
people presented their grievances to the
Knight household; but finally il was
done and a very strong case was made
out against the offender. 1t was decided
that the temptations OF city life had
proven too strong for the nimble repre-.
sentative Of the forest, and that it was
useless to hope that he would ever reach
that civilized state where he could be-
hold and admire, and still not fall q prey
to q depraved appetite.
Accordingly on Wednesday. with the
aid of five strong men, the animal was
loaded onto a wagon and conveyed to Joe
Savery's eighteen.mile house, there to do
penance for his past offenses. and where
in time it is hoped he will forget the
taste Of laces and ruffles and such like
dainties.

Ali Kinds Of weather Furnished
for All Kinds Of PeopIe.

tor All hluus OF feDpte.
No new cases OF pneumonia or ID
grippe were reported in Eureka during
the past week, and il is hoped the reign
OF the epidemic lie past. The few days
Of warm Sunshine which were experienced
the early part Of the week had q benef'
cial effect not only upon the invslids, but
upon the entire populace. Mrs. Fitz.
gerald and J. L. Smith are now the only
patients who are not on the high road to
recovery and they are slowly improving.
The weather which, early in the week,
gave promise OF warmth and sunshine,
underwent a sudden change Wednesday
night, and on Thursday . violent wind
storm prevailed which gave motion to
detached objects, and the residents OF
Mob Hill were kept busy trying to keep
their personal effects within the range Of
vision. As far as reported the only real
damage which resulted was the blowing
down Of a section of the Catholic church
fence. and the bursting Of 9 vault in the
rear Of the schoolbouse, which filled the
air with an odor that was anything but
fragrant.
From Thursday evening until Friday
morning a soaking rain fell continuously,
and later in the day it developed into
a healthy snow storm, which is still in
progress as we go to press.
Evidently there lie something radically
wrong with the Weather Bureau under
its present management, and unless i'm
provement 10 noted in the neal future
the people Of Eureka will favor its trans.
fer to the Var Department.

No physician Obtainable.

Thomas Robinson has been seriously i'll
with la grippe for the past few days at
his home in Newark Valley. and on
Wednesday his son came to Eureka for Q
physician. Unfortunately he was obliged
to return without one, as DIR. Hammond
is now the only physician we have who
is able to make professional visits, and
he could not leave his local patients. The
young man took some medicine home
with him, and it lie to be hoped that Mr.,
Robinson will soon be about again.

SHEEP ARE SHEARED.
DisagreeabIe weather Interfered
with the work.

DisagreeabIe weather I~nterfered
with the work.
The eighteen Mexican sheep shearers,
who for thirty days have been at work
on the hocks Of the Ford Live Stock
Company. completed their labors on
Tuesday and left the following morning
for Elko, from which place they will go
to SHELTON to shear for j. j. Hylton.
Heretofore the shearing Of the Ford Live
Stock Company's sheep has required
about twenty-five days. but this year the
unfavorable weather interfered with the
work to such an extent that shearing
was prolonged about eight days. This
year the wool, instead of being bsled,
was packed in long bags. thus rendering
it easy of inspection, and ct the same
time avoiding the undesirable pressing Of
grease and dirt into the product.
Landing commenced about May l and
is still in progress. On account of the
cold and stormy weather which prevailed
at that time it was feared the losses
would be heavy. but. fortunately. this
fear was unfounded, and the death loss
has been very light. The later bright
sunshiny weather, coupled with the fact
that the feed has never been better in
this part of the State, would seem to
mark this as q successful year for the
sheep industry.
