To Live Long.

Virchow, the German scientist, said
the way to live long is to "be born with
a good constitution, take care of it
when you are young always have
something to do and be resigned If you
find you cannot accomplish all you
wish" 1t is easier to live long with q
poor constitution than to violate the
other conditions and reach old age.

ORCHARD AND GARDEN.

Manure should never touch the tree
roots.
Grapes should do their ripening on
the vine.
All small apples and other defective,
infrm or damaged by worms have
their best market on the farm as food
for animals. If packed with sound
fruit, they reduce the price of all.
In planning out the planting of the
orchard the aim should be to plant the
trees at such distances from each other
as to secure the development of the
natural characteristics of the kind.

Bodie Bad Men.

was a laborer in Bodie, but he refused
to join the union. One day last week
q delegation Of union men placed Mr..
Hill in wagon and drove him to Hank
Blanchard's, and advised him not to
return. And Hank, who is faithful
student of holy writ, said unto him:
"Ysung man, listen to Mathew, And
whosoever shall not receive you, nor
your words, when you depart out Of
that city, shake off the dust of your
feet Now you take the bunch and

Meantime, Hills friends in Bodie

were equally positive that he should
not. Nearly every man in Bodie was

cation would have precipitated riot.

WATER WORSHIP.
1t Should be Adopted in the
West.

Every once in a while the big Sun
day papers dig up column or two
about fanatics who worship water, and
it seems incredulous to the general
reader because it looks like nonsense
In India the worship of water and
wells has spread contagion and pestl-
lence. In parts OF, Scotland, people
worship at wells and cure their ills
at the fountains. In Africa the great
Nile is worshiped by the natives, and
in China the people allow themselves
to be drowned by the food tides Tor
the worship of tie water. In Western
America, where water is represented
by money, it is no. worshiped but is
merely priced. Every inch OF water
that flows through the channels in the
spring food, represents an acre OF land
that might be turned to use, and every
acre in Nevada, when planted 20 grain,
represents hundred dollars and it g
the dollars that make the State go.
1t would be a pretty gooG scheme if
the people would put in little more
time worshiping water th'a they do in
worshiping their neighbors broad
fields. There is opportunity in this part
of the world to do more good with
water than there is by establishing
missions in China and India. The
moneys expended in converting heath
ems that they may carry arms. should
be put into wages, and picks, and shov.
els, and an army set to work storing
water in the thousands of natural cite.

Writ Issued

Attorney Ed T. Dnpuis appeared be-
fore the Supreme Court Yesterday after
noon and secured the issuance of writ
of habaes corpus i'll the case of Arnold
Maher, who is now serving a term in the
State Penitentiary for cattle stealing.
Chief Justice Bonnitield issued the writ.
1t is contended that the petitioner is I'M
lawfully deprived and restrained Of his
liberty in that Judge Mack exceeded his
jurisdiction III sentencing the prisoner.
The law prescribes as a penalty for
grand larceny, imprisonment for any
term not less than one year nor more
than fourteen. Maher was sentenced to
five years at hard labor. 1t is contended
that the imposing of the additional pun
ishment of hard labor was without au-
thority of law and therefore the judg-
'nent is void. The hearing is set for
