In recent bulletin Professor
Hill, of the Agricultural depart
ment has published several plans
for houses, barns, etc, for the use
of farmers, that can be erected
very cheaply. One of the designs
presented is of a house, capable of
enlargement, which com bines
many comforts and conveniences.
According to these plans, for
ST 900 a two-story nine-room house,
including bath room, with
large dry-cellar aud broad veranda,
can be constructed. For this price
the house can be plastered, paint
ed and heating apparatus supplied.
For a small additional cost hot
water heat can be supplied and
running water can be placed in the
bathroom. Professor Hill also
gives the plans for number of
barns costing from s275 to $3.50.
Many valuable SUGGESTIONS are
given for the comfort of farmers
and their families, as well as for
the care of their live stock. Sug-
gestions are made in relation to
sanitary conditions and methods

fifteen Iowa men whom he brought here

Quite a number of lola people are
puzzling these days. Yesterday they
received through the mail handsome
envelopes which smacked of Wedding
or reception. When the outer envelope
was opened there was disclosed a neat
inner one When the inner one was
opened nothing was found in it. A
shrewd guess, based on the fact that
the postmark is Humboldt, has decid-
ed that the envelope is meant for an
"at home" card from Mr.. and Mrs.
Cunningham, of Humboldt. But the
problem Isl Was the omission one of
Arthur's dry jokes, or was the task of
inserting the cards left to him and in
his ratified pre-marital state did he
forget what he was doing? Thepuzzle
certainly created u lot of wonder.
Judge Smith is a lucky man, as he

when he was in Kansas City and q

the girls who worked in the place and
they were patroling the walks in front

never saw such beautiful arms, but
she seemed i'll at ease and finally said;

Timely jingle from Galena Times;
The man who looks like thirty cents,
comes back to town. He waits till
darkness covers all; he waits till sun
is down. He wants to hide his sun
burned cheek; he shuhs the jeering
glance. He feels ashamed to show
mud on the basement of his pants. He
hides his fish rods and his boots; he
slips away to bed and of the fish he
didn't catch, not one brief word is
said. In dreams he sees the cork go
down he gives the rod a yank, and
lands bass that weighs four pounds,
upon the messy bank. Then he awakes
and his disgust is something great
immense. When his wife asks, John,
what's wrong?" He feels like thirty
cents.

LOS GATOS, Oct. 14-The people Of Los
Gatos have set about to rebuild the city
and so far as could be learned to-day it

a commodious and ornamental brick
structure to take the place of their former
building. They will commence work as
soon as the architect can get ready and
let the contract.
John Lyndon lost fourteen buildings.
He will commence rebuilding as soon as
contracts can be let. He will put up
brick buildings. W. B. Rankin and a
number of others will rebuild at once.
A conference Of the property owners has
been held and they determined to build
from four to six feet further back from
the curb, thus giving wider sidewalks
This will be a great Improvement.
The adjusters were in the city to-day
arranging to settle the losses. 1t is now
said that there is only $50, coo insurance
Some of the property destroyed was not
protected to the extent of a dollar.
A few of the safes were opened to-day
but most Of them were too hot to permit
handling. Water was turned on the vault
of the Commercial Bank and an effort
will be made to open it tomorrow. So
far as the safes have been opened it was
found that the valuables had escaped in

RAILROAD KINGS
SOON TO CLASH
Vast interests to Battle
for Supremacy in
the West.

ASTORIA, Or, Oct. 14-It is reliably
reported here that the Northern Pacific
Railroad Company recently offered A. B.
Hammond $3, 100000 for the Astoria and
Columbia River Railroad. The cffer is
said to have been declined, though the
impression prevails that Mr.. Hammond is
still considering it.
Along with the story of the reputed Of
fer comes a statement to the effect that
the West will soonwitness.a clash of rail-
road interests the like of which has never
before been seen in this country. The
contending hosts will be the Hill-b1organ
interests and the Harriman-Vanderbil
combination. On the one side are said to
be arrayed the Southern Pacific, the In
ion Pacific and the Oregon Railroad and
Navigation Company, while on the other
are the Northern Pacific, the Great
Northern and the Chicago, Burlington and
Quincy. 1t is said that the Northern Pa
cific is now building into the Oregon Rail-

the Northwest, while the Burlington is
building into Union Pacific territory, with
an outlet in Los Angeles.

Fatal Shooting in Modesto.

MODESTO, Oct 14.-What will develop
into a fatal shooting took place in the
Italian gardens of Nicholas Basso last
night at 10 o'clock. Joseph Burgess,
workman in the gardens, was shot while
in his bed. Jacco Basso, a brother of the
owner of the gardens, has disappeared
and is being hunted for by officers. The
shooting was done with a shotgun and
Burgess hip was torn open and the ar
terry severed. No one at the gardens will
discuss the affair, all feigning ignorance
of the English language. Jacco Basso, the
alleged shooter, came from Haywards a
week ago on a visit to the proprietor of
the place. Burgess cannot recover.

ESCAPE STARVATION
BY EATING THEIR DOG
Miners Lost in Alaska Live Upon
the Flesh of a Faithful


TACOMA, Oct. 14.-Another story of the
saving Of human life by eating dog flesh
comes from Alaska. Passengers from VAL
des say that five miners route from
entire supply of provisions while crossing
Copper River, several hundred miles
above the coast. They were left without
anything to eat in wilderness, which Of
fered nothing for subsistence. They wan
dered onward several days, hoping to
come upon other miners having plenty of
provisions.
Failing in this they finally killed and
devoured Ginger" a dog owned by one
Of the party. The dog had been of great
service, having assisted in hauling Benja-
min Fisher one of their number who had
been disabled from a gunshot wound in
flicted by an Indian. Besides Fisher the
party consisted Of J. A. Jacobson, Albert
Downing, Henry Thompson and Charles
SchlosSer.
