Last Tuesday being the 18th ami
versary of the birth of Miss Veva
Wilson, and by coincidence the
fort ysomethingth birthday of J. l.
Wilson, her father, a small gathering
of Miss Veva's girl friends came to
help celebrate the occasion. The
guests had all arrived by noon and a
substantial dinner was served to
about half score of lively school
girls, Mr.. Wilson presiding, after
which the youngsters adjourned to
the warehouse of the Nordyke Mills,
where they proceeded to have good
time. Later on some of the elder peo-
pie present, becoming curious, slip
ped in to find an impromptu literary
program on the boards; songs, reci-
tations, dialogues, and even cake
walks, were being put on in a man.

lot of happy chatter, the party broke
up, because the leading spirit said

A Prolific Cow.

Henry Seton, of this valley, has a
cow which last year bore three
calves at birth, and which this sea-
son gave birth to twin calves. All
of the calves are nice, large animals.
The cow is not an old one, and Mr..
Seton says he is anxious to get more
of her breed, as he thinks that by
breeding such stock he could soon
have a nice little herd of beef cattle,
and possibly lay up little money.

500 Reward, 500.

The readers of this paper will be
pleased to learn that there is at least
one dreaded disease that science has
been able to cure in all it's stages and
that is Catarrh. Halls Catarrh Cure
is the only positive cure now known
to the medical fraternity. Catarrh
being a constitutional disease, re-
quires a constitutional treatment.
Halls Catarrh Cure is taken inter
nally, acting directly upon the blood
and mucous surfaces of the system,
thereby destroying the foundation OF
the disease, and giving the patient
strength by building up the consti-
tuition and assisting nature in doing
its work. The proprietors have 80
much faith in its curative powers,
that they offer one Hundred Dollars
for any case that it tails to cure.

SOME OBJECT LESSONS IN ROAD MAKING.

former State has been substituted
for the latter, by us, wherever it
occurs in the original:
Experience has shown that
nothing so much teaches the value
of good roads as good roads them
selves. A smooth, even, hard-sur-
faced highway tells its own story.
When farmer, teamster or trav-
eler drives over such road he
realizes at once the difference be-
tween the good and the bad. The
gain in the drawing capacity OF
teams, and in the speed and COM
fort of travel, over a first-class
highway, is too great not to be at
once Immediately realized and ap-
preciated.
Similarly the art of road making
is best taught by object lessons.
One demonstration of the right way
to go about it is vastly better than
pages of description. The National
Good Roads Association, aided by
the Illinois Central Railroad and
the Office of Public Road Inquiries
at Washington, has recently given
this sort of instruction in the
States of Louisiana, Mississippi,
Tennessee, Kentucky and Illinois.
A good roads train" was run,
thoroughly equipped with the best
modern machinery and apparatus
used in road-making, and in &C
cordance with previous announce
ments stops were made at designa-
ted points, where a section of road
was made in the presence of the
assembled spectators. In this way
over twenty miles of earth, gravel
and stone roads were built. These
sections of good road remain as en-
couraging examples of what all
public highways ought to be. The
good roads" train everywhere
excited much interest and no little
enthusiasm in regard to road inn
provement.
In furtherance of the movement
for better roads an International
Good Roads Congress will meet at
Buffalo on September 10Th next,
when there will be actual demon
STATIONS of road building, using
such materials as earth, oil, gravel,
stone, tar-macadam, vitrified brick,
etc. This should serve to enlist
greater public interest in the sub
ject of road improvement, and as
all educator must lead to good re-
suits.
There is no State in which there
is more need of road betterment
than Nevada. With the exception
of few counties the public high
ways of this State are in general
very poor. While great sums OF
money are annually spent upon
the roads, nearly all of it goes for
merely temporary improvement, SC
that in the long run it may be said
to be mainly wasted. There is lit.
tie actual road building, most Of
the work being in the form oil
scraping and smoothing earth
roads. A good piece of frst-class
macadam road is such a rarity that
the traveller is surprised to find it
The law should require at Least
acertain percentage of road money
to be expended in permanent
work in each county. Another
great need is constant care of the
roads. Men should be hired b,
the year to give daily inspection
of the roads, and to make imme
diate repairs, just as is done or
the railroads. 1t is perfectly ridi
culous that chuck holes and bro er
planks in bridges are left untouch

they were Young men-wOrked it some
time with more or less profit, and then

syndicate. Under this management, how

The verdict of an expert employed prac-

sultation with his associate, Mr. Wither-

than suffer the imputation of dishonesty,
and six months after the original trans

A DANCING RocKEFELLER.
John D. Jr., Has Organized Dane
ing Class-Engagement the Reason.

From the New York Journal)
The announcement that John d. Rookie
Teller jr.. has organized dancing class,
which will meet at Delmonico's four
ambitious mammals with manageable
daughters.
The announcement that young Mr..
Rockefeiier is to be the leader in even the
mild fashionable dissipation that a dane
ing class affords may surprise those who
have known him only as the leader of a
Bible class and an Industrious and acute
business man. y has long been Mr..
Rockefellers custom TO address a class
of which he is the leader and treasurer.
In the Fifth Avenue Baptist church,
where he and his family worship.
To this class young Mr. Rockefeller has
laid down earnest teachings. the spirit or
tions from his utterances:
u am more than a Baptist; I am a
Christian
And.
To be really a Christian you must OBJ
serve the spirit as well as the. letter of
the law. Christs teachings de-
inand something far deeper than the mere
observation of the canon"
The canons Of the Baptist church, in
which Mr. Rockefeller's father is so dis
tinguished a figure, do not approve or
round dancing or OF any of the frivolities
IN which society delights
Some of Mr.. Rockefeller's friends sug-
gested that by forming the dancing class
he wishes to set the example of being
fashionable without being frivolous, to
exemDlify the moral that a young man
can at once perform his social and re-
ligious duties.
But his friends gave another and much
more interesting reason for the youthful
millionaire $ action, a reason that will de-
press the ambitious mammas with mar
riageable daughters. It is young Mr..
Eockefeller's engagement to Miss Aldrich.
Miss Abbie Aldrich is the second daugh-
ter OF Senator Alurich Of Rhode Island
Young Mr.. Rockefeller has been ex-
tremeiy attentive to Miss Abbie Aldrich
wherever they have met. at Narragansett
Pier at Providence, where the charming
Miss Abbic lives.
Now Mr.. Rockefeller emphasizes his
presence In society by forming a dancing
class 10 meet at Delmonicc's.
Since he was graduated from college
young Mr.. Rockefeller has developed
marked business ability He is fond Of
open air sports. OF coaching, Of music. He
PLAYS the violin well. OF. course he is.
pr0spectiVely certainly. the richest young
man engaged In religious work. and his
addresses 70 his Bible class have been

LONDON UNDERGROUND ROADS
(By Associated Press.)


New York. May GA dispatch to the
World from London says:
Charles 7. Yerkes has just returned
from a brief holiday to resume work
upon his schemes to furnish London
with rapid transit. Possibly Mr.. Yerkes
was reticent when seen, but he author
lied the statement:
'Mr Yerkes' principal plan is to
change the Metropolitan District rail-
ways motive power from steam to cleo
tricity. At present the tunnel is dark
and filled with gases from the locomo-
tives. Mr.. Yerkes will change all this.
"His plans are prepared for the erec-
ton of an electric station on the Thames
at Chelsea to supply the power. The
walls of the tunnel will be painted
white. and arc lamps will be placed at
regular intervals and the doors will be
,banished. While he was away on MI.
visit to America, Mr.. Yerkes organized
the Metropolitan District Traction COM
pany, with capital stock of $4,000 OOO,
all of which was taken by himself and
his friends.
HE has other extensive schemes in
view. The meeting of the stockholders
of the Metropolitan company to pass on
Mr.. Yerkes' schemes is fixed for June G.,
and as Mr.. Yerkes and his friends now
hold a controlling interest in the stock,
a transfer will be effected at once,
