Nevada Wins.

The Reno wheelmen defeated the
San Jose wheelmen in a ffty-mile
relay race at Reno last Sunday by
over mile, and the Pacific Coast
championship still rests with the
Nevada boys. A great number of
people from all over the State went
to Reno to see the race and root for
the home team. The Californians
took their defeat gracefully, and ac-
knowledge that they were up against
the real thing when they struck the
husky lads of the Silver State. Hur-

road connects the two points with
the exception of distance of sixty

products of all kinds could be sup
piled at fair prices by the ranchers
OF the valley to the miners of Tono-
pah. Hay, grain. potatoes, onions,
honey, butter, cheese, ETC., are to be
produced in Mason Valley in unlim-
tied quantity, and as the new min

consume great Quantities of these
products, it would seem that the
market would be well worth looking
after.
1t Is true that the mining industry
in and about Mason Valley is Great
ing a demand for considerable farm
produce, but there is plenty of land
and water with which to raise more
than enough for home consumption.
1t may be that there are other agri-
cultural points trifle closer to To-

do not understand that they would
have any the best of competing for
the trade. One thing we are sure of,
they cannot produce better quality
of goods.

With full attendance of pupils Of all
sizes and years within the school age.

it is possible that the board of trustees
will have to devise plans for enlarging
their capacity to size commensurate
with the demands for more space. So
far as learned. all of the teachers were
on hand when the opening bell tapped.
The season begins with the attendance
of many little ones who never before saw
the inside of place of learning. They
of course are in the lower grades now,
but as time progresses they will advance
step by step. thus making room for the
still younger generation whose anxiety
to become scholarly will soon be exceed
ed only by desire for the launching of
the holiday vacation.
The attendance at the public schools Of
Butte during the last few years has in
creased with remarka BILE rapidlty and
has taxed the progressive principles Of
the trustees to keep pace with it. New
and large buildings have been erected on
all sides and yet there is shortage of
room for the accommodation of the pu-

he was composing, took the instrument

Swinging in the hammock, inspired by
the soft rays of the moon and the sigh
ing of the night wind, he began to pick
out the complicated harmony. The smell
of the honeysuckle, the drone of the
crickets to the light basso of the wind
in the leaves, and the earth coated with
the liquid silver Of the moon, all acted
on him as fairy charm, and unwitting-
