Sufferers from this horrible rna'ady
nearly always inherit it - not necessarily
from the parents, but may be from some
remote ancestor, for Cancer often runs
through several generations. This deadly
poison may lay dormant in the blood foi
years, or until you reach middle life. then
the first little sore or ulcer makes its ap-
pearance -or a swollen gland in the
breast, or some other part Of the body,
gives the FIRST warning.
To cure Cancer thoroughly and perma.
ncntly all the poisonous virus must be
eliminated from the blood-every vestage
Of 1t driven out. This S. s. s. does, and
Is the only medicine that can reach deep
seated, obstinate blood troubles like this.
When all the poison has been forced ont
Of the system the Cancer heals, and the
disease never returns.
Cancer begins often In a small way, ms the
following letter from Mrs. Shirer shows:

John Dennis aud Earnest Bingham
took charge Of the Reno Journal
Monday. Mr.. Dennis will do the edi.
torial work. In commenting ON the
report that Mr.. Newlands is back
ing the new management, the Jour.
nal says:
This is absolutely false and the
rumor has not the shadow OF fac. for
its foundation. No living soul not
openly connected with this office has
advanced a dollar, and not a dollar
has boen promised, asked for or ex.
pected from any political aspirant
within or without the borders OF this
State. The gentleman referred to in
this Connection, nor any of his friends,
knew an thing about the Journals
change OF management until after all
OF the arrangements had been made,
and the lease signed by both parties
to the contract, when they probably
heard OF it as did others through the
public press. Having made this
statement OF facts, no notice will he
taken OF this or similar rumors in the
future
Notwithstanding this straightfor.
ward denial Of the rumor. the Jour.
nal need not be surprised il a certain
class OF Republican editors in the
State continue to give it currency.
Suspicious OF their own honor they
look upon everybody else with suspi-
cion.
The INDEPENDENT welcomes
Messrs Dennis and Bingham To the
journalistic field again. Bon are to
manor born and the journal under
their management is sure to WELD d
large influence III tho political and
industrial affairs OF tho State. Look
out for the Journal when they get
accustomed to the editorial harness.

Horses Burned to Death.

Eighteen valuable horses were
burned to death in a disastrous tire
which yesterday afternoon visited the
Clear Creek ranch. situated in Grass
valley, about fifteen miles south OF
Winnemucca. a large barn, corrale,
Il number Of sets OF harness and a
spring wagon were also totally de-
stroyed. The loss, which is in the
neighborhood of $1,000 falls upon W.
8. johnson and Geo. S. Nixon, who
have tho ranch leased from r. CLAN
vile.
The fire occurred shortly after l
o'clock yesterday afternoon. MI.
Johnson and the men employed on
the ranch had just returned to work
In the hay field after dinner when the
flames we're seen bursting from the
barn roof. They were about a quar-.
ter OF q mile away and by the time
they reached the scene tie building
and the adjoining corral were Il mass
Of flames. Inside the corral were
thirteen young stations and III tie
barn were two valuable buggy horses
and three stations. When the men
arrived it was too late to do anything
toward saving the animals. Tho
poor beasts rushed madly around the
corral in IN effort to escape, but the
pen had been so we'll built that they
were unable to break through the
fiery barrier. As the flaming circle
closed, the terrified animals huddled
in it's center and were iDcincerated i'm
n few moments. The horses IN the
barn met tho same fate, the heat
being 30 intense that it was impogsi-
BILE to open OF the doors in the
building. So quick was the spread
OF tho flames that within ten minutes
OF tho time they were discovered the
work OF destruction vas complete.
Tho stations were recently pur.
chased by MIR. johnson in Illinois.
They were all thoroughbreds and
though young were very valuable.
-Four OF them were worth at least
$500 edch and the owners placed II
valuation OF $4,000 on the horses
which were burned.
MIR. johnson brought the news OF
the fire here last evening. He said
that its origin was unknown. Tho
theory OF spontaneous combustion 10
advanced and 1t is also thought that

CHINESE AGRICULTURE.
INV American Farm Machinery ID
Not Wanted by hiilions OF
AIiatie Farmers.

Only n week or two before the late
Consul General Wildman sailed for
Hong-Kong on the ill-fated journey
which cost the lives of himself ana
his family and many others at the en-
trance to San Francisco harbor, he
wrote a letter to the government
about the numerous Inquiries made
by our manufacturers OF farm ma
chinery as to chances for selling their
goods in China. He said, for exam
Pile. quotes the New York Sun, he u
received many letters from makers
of reapers, lower and horserakcs
who were seeking a profitable mar.
kct in China. Manufacturers of plows
and other articles also have been
seeking markets there.
In reply to them Mr.. Wildman en-
phasizcd the fact that agricultural
land in China is divided into small
holdings. many of which are not over
an acre in size and very few II over
ten acres. Every available inch of
this land is under cultivation, and the
planting and reaping is all done by
hand.
II plows are used at all they are
of home manufacture II OF the mos
primitive character. The peasantry
live Mt the rate OF from two to five
cents n day. and wen il they could

tbroShinp machine IL would ne uScC

THE COCOPA INDIANS.
a PEinaitivc Agricultural Folk of
the Lower Colorado nnd
/ TheiP Customs.

The Cocopa Indians of the lower
Colorado lin both Baja California and
Sonorn) are OF interest partly because
they have practically escaped attcn-
ton on the part Of scientific inveS,i-
gators until within n few months. and
partly because of the customs which
distinguish them from most neighbour
ing tribes. They arc essentially an
agricultural folk. though their a]pricul-
ture is OF the most primitive sort, at
fording, indeed. n better picture of
prehistoric agricultural methods than
those of any other known tribe. SAYS
the New York Tribune. Their customs
well illustrate. too, the dependence of
primitive industries, modes of life.
and even habits Of thought. on sur
roundings; for. like the fcllahcrn of
the lower Nile. they are creatures of
the river along which they live. driven
from the bottom lands by the annual
frcshcts, and brought hack bv ensuing
dr"ughtS to plant anew In the soil fer.
tilted by the annual silt deposit.
Perhaps Of primary interest among
their customs IL their DISPOSAL Of the
dead. They not only distribute the
property Of the deceased among nom
relatives, hut burn the body and the
habitatiOn together. 4 hIc
part OF the tribal lore is connected
with the mCrtuary custom: and Gus.
tom and lore together afford remark.
able insight into the csutcric life Of
primitive peoples.
