No Complaints Of
Water Users.

The patrons OF the municipal water
works are pacitied. Not word OF COM
plant has been heard since the rates be-
came operative on May /.
In many instances the rates have been
lowered. and those who were thus bene-
fitted Of course have maintained pleas
ant and dignified silence. But the pa.
irons who had to stand raise were ex
pected to kick, yet they have thus far
left unspoken any complaint which they
may have harbored.
The water rate problem is apparently
about to adjust itself into popular
groove and the council is no doubt glad
that the people are satisfied. se

Says a Big Army
Is Dangerous.

DENVER. May 2 --Brigadier-G General
Henry G. Merriam, commandea OF the
Department Of Colorado, who figured as
the military ruler Of the Occur d'Alene
district in Idaho after the miners riots
there. lie opposed TO a large standing
army, according TO an interview printed
here. General Merriam said:
GAS to the regular army, the number
which has been decided upon by the
Washington authorities is quite enough.
We do not need 100000 men in the reg
ular army. What We need is small
and thorougly drilled, disciplined and
equipped body that is not afraid TO work
and is ready for any emergency.
IA lazy colder 10 bad soldier, and it
would be menace TO the country to fill
the pos.s with thousands OF men with
nothing to do. Officers and men should
be kept constantly employed and they
are then kept out of mischief. We have
no need OF a large standing army"

at is reported that nearly a thou
sand head of cattle belonging to a
company which has its headquar-
tiers at Battle Mountain have been
drowned near that place. The cat
tie we're pastured on the lowlands
and cut off by the rising water in
the river and sloughs. The report
is probably exaggerated, though
there is no doubt the loss was quite
large.
In regard to the above article we
have not heard of such n loss of cat
tie around here among any of our
stockmen, and from reports of a
number of our ranchers, the cattle
are getting along very good.

She Thought OF Her Brother

A young lady attending church
one evening recently, sat directly
behind a handsomely dressed
stranger with a piece of thread
hanging over his collar. Being
one of those generous hearted,
whole sonled girls, who grow up to
be motherly friends to everybody in
town. she thought how glad she
would be if a kind hearted girl
would dc so much for her brother il
be came to church with a thread
hanging down his back. So when
the audience bowed in prayer she
concluded to pick the thread off.
Carefully raising her hand she gave
it a little twitch, but there was
more than she supposed and a foot
or two more appeared. Setting her
teeth, she gave another pull and
about a yard OF the horrid thread
hung down his back. This was
getting embarrassing but she deter
mined to give it another yank. She
did so and discovered that she vas
un~raveling his undershirt. Her
embarrassment was SO painful that
chloroform could not have allie
waited her suffering. nor a pint of
powder hidden her bushes when
the young man turned around with
an inquiring lock to see what a
tickling his neck.

A Chicago firm which has contracted
to raise the battleship Maine has been
down making an examination. II is
going to raise the Maine at its own
cost and give the United States gov
eminent 3 per cen of the proceeds.
1t is going to be a good deal Of a task.
A cofferdam is to be built entirely
around the wreck. 1t will be CON
,structed of long spiling and then en-
banked with dirt making it water
tight. Then the water can be pumped
out Of the enclosure, leaving the
wreck exposed in the mud. Then will
come the derrick and powerful lifting
machinery II it can be patched up
80 1t can be foated, then that will be
done. IL not, it will be torn in pieces,
while the cofferdam keeps back the
water. The divers found the wreck
had settled forty feet in the soft mud,
the bottom of the ship being sixty
feet below the tide mark. The cost
of raising it is estimated at from $780,
900. to $500, 900. The divers found
two magazines in the vessel containing
800 tons of powder, intact and unin-
iured. All tho divers and surveyors
agree that the Maine was blown up by
a mine set off from a land battery.

TONAPAH ORE.

The Austin Reveille publishes addi-
tional information in regard to Tona-
pah, the new southern Nevada mining
camp. 1t says that several mining ex-
peris have visited the camp, men of
recognized ability and standing, among
whom may be named s A. Harsh of
Helena, Montana, a graduate of Yale
Sheffield School of Science. class of '92.
OF nine samples assayed by Mr.. Harsh
the lowest yield was $40 AZ gold and
81 ia silver; the highest yield 1884 OF
in gold and S1.71S 80 in silver at GO
cents per ounce, the average being
s115 60 in gold and S474 48 in silver.
In a private letter Mr.. Harsh pro-
ncunced it the finest showing from the
surface he had ever seen.
The lodges are from two feet to ten
feet in thickness and are in %porphyry,
rhylite on each side. They stand
nearly vertical, with smooth hanging
and foot walls. The company is sink
ing two large shafts, 6 feet by 8 feet,
and are down nearly fifty feet with no
apparent change in the value of the
ore
Two hundred thousand dollars, to
be paid in six months, has been offered
and refused for the eight COMPANY
claims, there being more than tina,
amount of value in the ore now in
sight.
While one man a see ne deepe,
into the earth than another, and any
prediction may fail, yet it is generally
conceded by all who have visited the
camp that Tonapah will become thu
leading mining camp of the State.
