Cioudburst Near Sweetwater.

The Boston company which is put
ting up stamp mill on gold prop
erty about four miles from Sweet
water, Cal, met with quite mis-,
fortune last week. A cloudburst
occurred in the canyon above the
mine and mill and torrent of water
swept away the partially construct.
ed mill, castings, lumber and ma.
chinery, carrying some of it several
hundred yards down the canyon
The flood also filled up the mouth OF
the tunnel, through which the mine
il worked, with debris. The dam.
age to the company's property Is
quite serious and will cause a sus.
pension of operations for some time,
thereby throwing about twenty men
out of employment. Water from
this cloudburst came down the can.

Southern Pacific Wins.

In the United States District Court
in Carson, last Monday, Judge Haw-
ley rendered his decision in the in
junction suit of the Southern Pacific
Railroad Company against the State
of Nevada. On a very technical
point the decision falls in favor of
the Railroad Company and the IN
junction against the Assessors plac-
ing valuation of $4,000 per mile
on the road in Nevada stands. The
decision is quite lengthy one, but
the main point is that the Assessors
did not properly classify the road
in other words, if the Assessors had
classified the road under the heading
"all broad gauge railroads running
through the State of Nevada" in
stead of saying "the Central Pacific
Railroad Company" when making
the assessment, the State would
have won on this point. But the
question of the constitunality of the
law remains to be yet decided. The
Judge thought the best way to as
sess the road would be to leave it to
the individual Assessors, and some
of them say they will assess the
road at $4,000 per mile. The COM
pany is turning the road in to the
Assessors at valuation OF $4,000
per mile, and that valuation will
proba bly, be accepted.

Opening for an Enterprise.

1t seems to us that there is an
opening in this place tor a small
steam laundry. At the present time
considerable laundry work is being
sent to Reno, while, of course, the
heavy work is kept at home and
done by Piute labor. IF a small
laundry plant was to be put in on
Bridge Street, near the river, so that
soft water could be easily obtained,
it could be conducted at very light
expense. There are several hundred
men at work in ard adjacent to this
camp, and the majority of them
would, no doubt, patronize such an
institution, while many families
would most likely send their wash
ing to the laundry in preference to
being bothered with it at home. This
pointer IS thrown out for the benefit
of anyone who desires to establish
himself in snug little business in
a growing community.

Breeding Up Cattle.

l. A. Strosnider was down from
Missouri Flat last Sunday. Ike has
been dealing in fancy cattle for the
past year, and last Fall he brought
to this valley from Missouri 20 head
of thoroughbred registered Hereford
and Durham bulls. So far he has
sold "a head of the animals at goo d
figures, only having tour lett.
Messrs. Bell and Troy, of Nye Coun-
ty, purchased eight of these animals
while they were here last week. All
the other animals were sold in this
valley, G.. w. Wilson being the
largest buyer here. All this is evil
dence that some of the people are
beginning to realize that thorough
breds are paying investment.

OVER NIAGARA
in A BARREL
Widow Made Trip Because
She Needed Money
Thanked God That She Was Alive,
Badly Bruised But Is Not SCri-
OuSly Injured

Niagara Falls, N. Y. Oct. 25.-Mrs.
Annie Edison Taylor. so years old,
went over Niagara Falls on the Cana
dian side yesterday afternoon and sur
vived. feat never before accom-
pllshed, and indeed never attempted
except in the deliberate commission
of suicide She made the trip in a
barrel. She was conscious when she
was taken out Of the barrel The doc
tors in attendance upon her last night
said that though she was hysterical,
her condition is not at all serious,
and that she probably will be out of
bed within few days.
Mrs. Taylor's trip covered a mile
ride through the Canadian rapids be-
fore she reached the brink of the
precipice. Her barrel. staunch as a
barrel could be made. was twirled and
toppled and buffeted through those
delirious waters, but escaped serious
contact with rocks. AS it passed
through the smoother, swifter waters
that rushed over into the abyss it
rode in an almost perpendicular posi-
ton, with its upper half out of the
water. As IL passed over the brink II
rode at an angle OF about As degrees
on the outer surface of the deluge and
descended as gracefully as a barrel
can descend to the white foaming wa
ters, 1853 feet below.
True to her calculations. the anvil
fastened TO the bottom of the barrel
kept 1t foot downward. and so it
anded. Had it turned over and land
I'd on its head Mrs. Taylor's head
must have been crushed in and her
neck broken.
The ride through the rapids occu-
piod IS minutes. It was 4.2S o'clock
when the barrel took its leap. 1t could
not be seen as it struck the water
below. because of the spray. but in
less than half a minute after IT passed
over the brink 1t was seen on the
surface of the scum-coverad water be-
low the falls. 1t was carried swiftly
down to the green water beyond the
scum. then half way TO the Maid OF
the Mist landing it was caught in
what Is known as the Maid Of the
Mist eddy and held there until II
foated so close to the shore that il
was reached by means of a pole and
hook and drawn in upon the rocks at
4.40 o'clock. or II minutes after il
shot the cataract Ten minutes later
the woman was lifted from the bar
rel. She thanked God that she wal
alive, thanked all who had helped hel
in any way. said she would never dc
II again, but that she was not sorry
she had done it, IF it would help hel
financially" She said she had prayed
all during the trip except during
few moments of Inconsistencies JUS
After her descent.
The barrel in which Mrs. Taylo
made the journey is 4 10 feet higl
md about feet in diameter.

CURIOS ARE DETAINED
VALUABLE COLLECTION FROM rG-
KIN HELD BY AUTHORITIES
Question Is Whether Duty Has Been
Paid on It--AFticIes Were TIA
ken From Imperial
Palace

The office of the United States district
attorney, in the federal building, yeste:-
DAY presented the appearance of a Chi
nest curio shop, as scattered around
were number of articles that are re-
puted to have a history, ana it is said
they were taken from the imperial pa-a
at Pekin at the time that fanoUssand an
Gent city was sacked.
The articles were brought from China
by James Reed Hull, who was mem
Der OF the Thirteenth regiment. and ws2o
after the troops had been mustered out a
Manila, visited the city of Pekin, and
other interesting points in the Chinese
empire.
Upon his return to the states, Mr.. Hull
brought his treasures to MINNEAPOLIS,
where, for a season, he had them on ex-
hl9t.en in the window of a Prominent
Nicollet avenue store
The curios were offered for sale for
$780, and as no purchaser was forthcom-
ing, they were removed from the win
Down.
Recently, the government author ties
were given a tip that the articles had
been struggled into the country free Of
duty, and yesterday Special Agent
Charles S. Crane, OF the tr5 asury depart
ment, visited Prior Lake. where Mr.. Hull
is stopping, and seized tie entire colIet-
ton.
It may be sai1. however that the goods
have not actually been seized, but they
are simply detained pending instructions
from the depas tment of justice
Mr.. Hullnadnaits that ne obtained the
articles at the time the Imperial palace
was looted, and he Goes not consider that
they are subject to duty
The articles consist of a Handsomely

Low RATE OF INSURANCE
STATE BUILDINGS GET RATE OF 1
PER CENT PREMIUM
Only Particularly Unsafe Portions
of State Prison EXcepteei-Uni-
Versity Insurance to he
Rewritten.

After negotiations extending over some
weeks, the state board of control has
finally arranged for fire insurance on
state institutions at a premium which Is
regarded as remarkably low The total
insurance to be placed by the board is
about $500, 000 The rate, which is made
by Walter r. Fisher, of Minneapolis, sec
rotary of the Underwriters Association
of Minnesota and the Dakotas, Isl per
cent. The state prison is the only in
stitution under the supervision of the
board of control which is excepted from
that rate, and the reason given for the
discrimination is that the insurance com
pantes consider some portions of that
establishment as particularly, hazardous
risks. Therefore there will be different
rates made for different portions of the
prison, the premium On frame buildings
and workshops of the shoe and bincer
Irvine factories being higher than those
on the prison buildings proper.
The underwriters proposal of / per
cent rate was made to include the state
university property and that of the Sol
diers' Home and the State Fair associa-
ton, which are not under the supervl-
sion of the board of control. 1t is I'M
derssood that about $500, coo of insurance
now carried by the state university re-
gents at lilo per cent premium will be
rewritten at the new rate and that the
other institutions mentioned will take
advantage of the reduced premium. .are
