Probable Compromise.

Yesterday a number of the farmers
and land owners of Smith Valley and
Mason Valley met in this city to read
over the provisions of the agreement
in the water suit between the farmers
and Miller & Lux.
There has been an endeavor on the
part of the land holders in the section
involved, to settle the matter out of
court, and from present indications,
this excellent plan will carry. Among
those present at the meeting yesterday
were l.. r. Ames, J. r. Wilson, g. b.
Waldo, J. B. Gallagher, P. Gallagher
and j. w. Simpson. This included
representatives from both ends of the
Walker river
At the meeting, the agreement as
proposed by Miller & Lux, was rea
over, and while it does not suit in
every particular, yet it seems that a
general compromise will be reached
The committee, at its meeting, modi-
fed the Objectionable portions of the
plans and this modified document was
returned to the big firm in California.
Had this law suit reached the courts
it would have resulted in no end OF
litigation, as the entire holdings along
the stream are involved.
Such a suit would probably break a
number of the small land holders,
while the firm of Miller & Lux, which
is rated as millionaire concern, woulo
be able to fight the suit through all OF
the courts and be able to stand any Fl
nancial loss, as they have a regular
corps of lawyers constantly employed.
should the modified document be ac-
cepted, the much talked of law suit
will be wiped out and a lesson taught
many who are more than willing to
plunge into the courts. s.-Cdrson dppea .

Cobyyeb pills,

In New England cobweb pills are
supposed to cure the ague. and in the
south a certain knuckle bone In a pigs
foot is a sure cure for rheumatism if 1t
be carried in the pocket or worn sus-
pended from a string around the neck.
Tracing the spider web pill. it origi-
mated in China. where all species of in
sects have certain positive or negative
values in medicine. In Peking 1t is
customary to give two or three scor-
pions or spiders to patient Ill of fever.
In Ireland the peasantry swallow small
spiders alive to effect cures From
these the cobweb pill of the New Eng
land native was easy In Flanders the
live spider is fastened into the empty
shell OF walnut and worn around the
neck of the patient. AS the creature
dies the fever decreases until it is gone
entirely.-Rochester Post-Express.

The Changed Grizzly.

There are numerous reliable state
ments of grizzly bears having attacked
men, but nowadays the grizzly does rot
seek out his human victims. as there
are credible statements that his fore
fathers used to do. Neither does he
lie in wait and, pouncing upon hunt
er, tear him into bloody shreds in de-
lighted fendishness, as the old time
stories used to tell. The change in the
grizzly's disposition is likened by vet
eran hunters to the change in the char
acter of the white cousin of the grizzly,
the polar bear of the arctics. When
the stations for the Hudson Bay COM
pany were established, the diaries of
the men there often referred to the
fright of attacks by polar bears Many
a navigator In the arctic seas has been
clawed aud chewed to death by polar
bears. But for nearly q century the
polar bear has not been regarded as so
very fierce and nowadays 1t Is looked
upon as cowardly beast. Association
with armed men has modified the polar
bears disposition Outing.

Scotland boasts Of two round towers,
said to be stragglers from the great
typical group found in Ireland. The
one is attached to the handsome cathe-
dral of Breehin and the other stands In
the center of Abernethy. near the en-
trance gate to the churchyard. The
Brechin tower, built in six irregular
courses and rising over 100 feet, is the
more perfect of the two. 1t dates from
Kenneth's reign, 9T1-95. and has most
graceful appearance. Pennant In his
history speaks of having. in 1772, found
handsome bells within its walls. These
were afterward removed and now hang
in neighboring steeple. The origin of
these towers is now somewhat doubt
full, but archRologists are generally
agreed that they were built in connec.
ton with churches for defense and
faithfulness of watch" during the
Norseman raids. They were afterward
used as belfries, the Brechin tower hav-
Ing done duty as such for generations
The tower is now one of the sights of
the ancient town and is regarded as q
memorial of its early conection with
Ireland.-Scottish-

declared quarterly dividend of 10 per

In ten years this corporation has dis
tributed among it's stockholders profits
to the amount of $304, ,00O,0 900. This is
304 per cent. on it's capitalization.
1t is estimated by the New York

holders had got back all the capital ac-
tually invested. The stock is now sell
ing for about $675 a share, and paying
dividends at the rate of 40 per cent.

scarcely be said to be over capitalized
and against which publicity would
be unavailing. To reach Trust OF
this kind there must be some limitation

Angora goats may be successfully
grown in every State in the Union,
and they will live on any kind of feed
that will keep other stock, but certain
conditions must be observed. While
they stand the cold we'll, wet weather
affects them more than any other stock;
for this reason they must have shelter
from the rain, especially the cold rains
of fall, winter and spring. The forma-
ton of their hair, being SO curly and
loose, permits the rain to soak into it
and through it, and it holds the moist
ure for a long time, thereby rendering
the animal exceedingly uncomfortable.
If shelter is provided they are quick to
take advantage of it when storms are
