His Leg Broken.

James Kane, well known in this val
ley, met with serious accident at the
mill of the Crystal Lake Mining Com
pany at Lundy last week. The Bodie
Miner index says: His regular work
was attending the tramway but at this
time he was assisting in putting a new
roof on the lower tramway house.
Several men were on piece of scat
folding which gave away allowing
them to fall about twelve feet Kane
was the most unfortunate, alighting on
his feet, but his left foot being on the
edge of plank, turned in manner to
break one of the bones above the ankle
besides rupturing the ligaments.
The unfortunate man was taken to
Bodie and was resting easy at last ac-
counts.

The steamer Islander, the flagship of
the Canadian Pacific Navigation fleet,
and the largest and fastest passenger
steamer ON the Victoria Skagway
route, eollided with an iceberg off
Douglas island, Alaska, while on her
way south with the largest number of
passengers that she has carried since
she was replaced on the run few
months ago, and sank within thirty
minutes after striking. Captain Foote,
her master, and about sixty-five per-
sons, including passengers and men,
bers of the crew were drowned To
add to the horror of the terrible dis
aster her boilers exploded as she went
down, causing the death of many of
those who were struggling in the
water.

1t is now generally known and I'M
derstood that Drunkenness is a disease
and not weakness. A body filled with
poison, and nerves completely shat
tered by periodical or constant use of
Intoxicating liquors, requires an anti
dote capable of neutralizing and eradi-
eating this poison, and destroying the
craving for intoxicants. Sufferers may
now cure themselves at home without
publicity or loss of time from business
by this wonderful 'HOME GOLD
CURE9' which has been perfected after
many years of close study and treat
ment ofinebriates. The faithful use
according to directions of this wonder
full discovery is positively guaranteed
to cure the most obstinate case, no
matter how hard a drinker. Our

Thousands of Drunkards have cured
themselves with this priceless remedy,
and as many more have been cured
and made temperate men by having

A Great Power.

The greatest water power in this
section Of Nevada is at Woodfords, at
the head of Carson Valley. There the
water comes down Hope Valley Can
yon in torrent, with fall of at least
one thousand feet in the four miles of
the creek bed. The supply is always
there as no ranches are above that
require the water for irrigation.
Why this great power has not been
harnessed is a mystery. 1t is abso-
lutely safe and never failing. 1t has a
volume of water that cannot be di-
minished, and converting it into pow
er would not interfere with the irriga-
ton on the ranches below.
The question of utilizing this great
power has been studied by Bob Logan
and others who are interested in Como.
The mines are only about thirty miles
from the source of supply, but the old
question of coin has prevented the util-
ity of the water power at Woodfords.
Gardnerville lies but twelve or fifteen
miles below Woodfords and it is ru-
mored that the Valley city is seriously
thinking of hitching onto the stream
and furnishing electricity both for
power and lights. With this power
introduced along the Carson river, a
number of mines and milling proper
ties could be run that are now idle

GROWTH OF COAL EXPORTS.

The announcement of a prospective
export tax of one shilling per ton on
English coal adds interests to the. fact
that American coal is making rapid
Roadway in invading the markets Of the
world. The figures Of the Treasury Blu
reau Of Statistics indicate that the coal
exports Of the fiscal year which ends
June S0th viii amount to about 5000, GOO
tons. as against less than 100000 tons
IN 1890. S.7T2,1 92 tons in 1895. and 7.1SS,-
$40 tons in 1900. This export figure is
as yet small compared with that OF
the United Kingdom. or compared
with our coal area. which is many times
as great as that of any other OF the
great coal-exporting nations. but the
growth in our own case has been much
more rapid than that of any other coun-
try The United Kingdom. for instance,
exported S0.142.S39 tons in 1890 and Il, 10S,-
OH tons in 1900. the relative growth being
much greater in the case Of the United
States than in the case Of the United
Kingdom. Germany Is the second great
coal-exporting country of the world. and
her exports only increased from 9.145.-
600 metric tons in 1890 to 15.276.OOO tons
in 1900.
The United States now ranks third
IN the matter of coal expectations, while
Belgium ranks fourth with a total ex-
portations Of s.114000 tons in 1890 ana
6.sS1.575 tons in 1900. Thus the relative
growth Of coal exports from the United
States by far exceeds that of any other

Entries For Musical Jubilee at
Hutchinson
May Be Made Up to May 90
Are Coming Fast.
FESTIVAL JUNE ITO .
Best Array of SoIoists Ever
Present Is Secured.
Interstate Contest viii Bring
Out Fine Talent.

Hutchinson, May 2.-The entries for
the Musical Jubilee contests are coming
in daily now and entries have been made
in most all Of the different classes. Sec
rotary Hoagland announces that entries
will be received up to May 20 and a
great many of the contestants will not
send In their names and the entrance fee
until during the last week before the
final date.
There is every reason to believe that
the Jubilee of 1901 viii be superior to
any yet given, and it is certain that it
win excel all past efforts in the way of
entertainment There has never been
such an array Of professional soloists
secured as will be present at the Jubi-
lee. This feature is one of the greatest
attractions ever offered to secure large
attendance of musicians The interstate
vocal solo contest Will bring perhaps
eight or ten additional soloists who are
in the professional class and who Will
contribute to the concerts. There are
already three entries in the interstate
contest, a soprano from Illinois, one
from Texas, and a Kansas tenor from
Topeka. These have already sent in the
entrance fee but there are a number Of
others who are certain to come.
The full list of contests as usual will
be given with the customary prizes for
the winners.
The Jubilee will be held on the north
side of town this year as the auditorium
has been moved to the park. The new
location will be a better one in every
way and the car line leading to it passes
50 that the Jubilee visitors will be given
a better impression of Hutchinson than
in former years, when the route from
two depots entirely missed the town.

Worcester Spy. The establishment Of
rural free delivery seems to be one of
the -triumphs of this decade. Instead Of
compelling every man in the country
districts to make a daily trip to the
pestofice for his mail. the government
proposes to have one man do the work
of hundreds and deliver the mail to the
homes throughout the country. The es-
tablishment Of this system will bring in
its train the parcel post system. This
viii make it possible for the farmer in
the remote country district to pursue
hin daily vocation without interruption
and have ordinary purchases brought to
him daily as wen as his newspapers and
magazines and family letters. These
things mean n tremendous improvement
in the rural life and together with the
telephone they annihiEate distance and
bring the farmer into intimate relations
with the rest of the world. The postal
telegraph IS another possibility to be
added. to. the eonveniences available for
the farmer and those living in remote

A WIDOW ON GUARD.
Dares Any One to Tear Down Fence
Across Disputed Highway.


Wichita May 2.-Mrs. Lonisian Rose
berry, a pretty widow of Waco town
ship has closed up the public highway
that was run through her land and
stands guard against trespaAers with a
shotgun in one hand and a pistol in the
other. She dares any one to tear down
the fence which she has built across the
roadway.
z. P. Martin, trustee Of Waco town
ship. came to town today and asked the
county commissioners to send officers
out and arrest her. They refused, but
referred the matter to County Attorney
Conley, who is looking up the law and
boundary line to see if the road is a le-
gal highway. She says that it is not,
and that she Is legally advised to close
the road, which is running her property.
Several days ago, when she put
fence across the road, some farmers tore
it down. This so enraged her that she
now stands guard over the fence. Her
neighbors are afraid to go near her, for
fear they viii be shot.
The county attorney was informed
that Mrs. Roseberry had some very Pc
culiar ideas and that the people out
there in Waco township did not like 10
be on the same quarter section with her
when she sailed out with that revolver.
Where she had closed the public road
she put up sign, mo women allowed
on these premises and there was 4
like sign on her gate at the house.
