SCARCITY OF WINTER FEED.

Austin Reveille: During the past few
weeks we have heard number OF stock
men from various sections OF Nye, Lam
der and Churchill counties, say that since
the settlement of the country by white
people Winter feed for stock was never
as scarce in the valleys as it is at the
present time, and that sections hereto
fore covered with white sage and sand
grass are now absolutely bare of vegeta-
ton.
The season has been an exceptionally
dry one, thus the scarcity OF feed, and
should the coming Winter be in any way
severe the loss of stock will be exceeding
ly heavy, as many stockmen have not
the hay to carry them through the Win
ter, which will compel them to turn most
Of their stock out to shift for themselves.
At the present time cattle in the mount
aims are in good condition, but as the
feed is getting scarce there the cattle
are working out towards the valley,
and by the time snow flies they will be in
poor condition to stand the severity of
the elements.

THE FIRST CAM MERA.

ft Was Invented by an Italian In the
sixteenth Century.
The GENERA was invented by an Ital-
Ian named Baptista Porta, though 1t
was not at first used for photograph
Ing. 1t was in reality merely dark
room. into which the light was admit
ted through a little round hole In one
side The rays OF light coming from
objects outside of this room entered 1t
through this aperture and made pic
ture on the other side Of the room glow
ing In al the beauty and color Of ma
ture itself. but rather indistinct and
upside down.
This dark room was contrived by Por-
Ia about the middle Of the sixteenth
century. He improved 1t later by plac-
Ing a glass lens In the aperture and
outside a mirror which received the
rays of light and reflected them through
the lens so that that image upon the
opposite wall within was made much
brighter, more distinct and in a natu-
raj or erect position. This was really
the first camera obscura, an invention
which Is enjoyed to the present day,
being situated often upon a hilltop,
where picturesque country surround
Ing may be reflected through a lens
which is placed In the center Of the
conical roof.
Now. our modern Photographic cam
era is merely a small comera obscura
In its simplest form. carrying lens at
one end and n ground glass screen at
the other. 1t is. however. often much
more complicated in its construction.

Take Senator
Hanna's Place
As Chairman ofNational
Committee.
Gov Crane May Be His
Successor.

Chicago, Aug. THE Tribune's
Washington correspondent says: at
is not certain that Senator Hanna viii
not manage the Republican campaign
Of 1904, when In all likelihood Presi.
dent Roosevelt will be the Republican
candidate for the presidency.
"hIr. Hanna has acted as chairman OF
the National Republican committee
since 1896 largely because of his per.
sonal interest in the late President Nc.
Kinley's welfare. The death Of Nc
Kinley has removed his incentive to
active political management besides
which Mr.. Hanna's health will not per.
init him to undergo any more physical
and mental strain than Is absolutely
necessary.
"More important than these two
reasons however will be the feeling on
the part Of Presientd Roosevelt that
he ought to have his personal repre-.
sentative as chairman Of the National
Republican committee.
Although the presidential campaign
is still two years distant, there is con-
siderable gossip in political circles as
to Senator Hanna's successor. Prom
inence is given to the name of Gov.
VIM. Murray Crane, of Massachusetts,,
and there is much plausibiliy In the
suggestion that he will be selected.
President Roosevelt has high opinion
OF his political sagacity."

JUMPED FROM

And Calmly Asked II Mosquitoes
Had Bitten Him.

Union City, Ind, Aug. 7.-Shortly
after the Big Four train due here at
S:34 passed Farmland, this county
well-dressed man about so years old
entered the dining car and ordered
supper. He was told that supper was
over, but that ne could have a cold
lunch.
When the waiter turned to fill the
order the man suddenly jumped
through the window while the train
was going at the rate of so miles an
hour. Some one turned in the emer-
gency signal and the train was stop
ped. On going back the man was
found standing near a fence. He was
brought to this city and an examina-
ton proved that while his head, on
which he had alighted, was badly
bruised and cut no bones were broken.
The young man gave his name ss
Walter r. Griffith, of Morristown, N.
j., and said his father conducted
banking business at the corner Of Fifth
ave. and Forty-second St, New York
city. He does not know what has
happened, and asked II mosquitoes
had bitten him. He was en- route

NAMED His BOY
For Grover Cleveland and Was
Defeated In the Race.

Delaware, O., Aug. 7.-One Of the
defeated candidates for the nomina-
tion for the office of County Commits
sioner before the Republican conven-
ton held here Tuesday, attributes his
failure to land the prize to a peculiar
circumstance.
Some 10 years ago the gentleman,
whose name is Cleveland, was a Dem
ocrat, and during the first administra-
ton of President Cleveland named his
youngest son Grover.
To this living evidence of his former
political faith he attributes his defeat,
as the fact was widely published by
his competitors in the race.
