dispatched from this point as soon
as the cutoff around Wadsworth
is completed, says the Reno Jour-

been graded and tracklaying will
begin at once.
A large stone round house and
other company buildings are to be
built in Reno without delay. A
number of carloads IF material
have already arrived. The rail-
road change alone will add at least
a thousand people to Reno's pop
ulation this summer. Railroad
employees are buying lots and con-
tracing for the construction of

WadSWOrth's Flu
ture.

The Dispatch publishes the fol-
lowing statement as having been
issued by General Manager Krutt-
schnitt to the people Of Wads-
worth.
IA new main line track will be
built south of Wadsworth, CROSS
ing the Truckee river above the
town. A track will always be
maintained to Wadsworth as a
branch line. The grade will be
made SO that the same tonnage
will operate from Wadsworth to
Truckee. The matter of the shops
being located at Wadsworth Las
not been considered. Should the
Southern Pacific Company at some
future time find it best to remove
the shops from Wadsworth else
where, the people of Wordsworth
who would lose their property
thereby will find their interests
considered in any such new l6ca-
ton and protected by me. In my
opinion all shops on the line of
the road will be done away with
and the work done at Sacramento
and Ogden, and pending the re-
construction and enlargement of
tho shops at Sacramento and Og-
den there is no probability of a
change in Wadsworth or any other
intermediate shops"

A Dry Year.

At the present writing it looks
very much like d dry year. Still
there is yet time for The snow to
FALL in The mountains. Moreover
the early SHOWS usually go off
with the thaws and it is the late
falls that make the Summer sup
ply. Thus we may hope that the
hills in Elko will yet be covered
with snow enough to insure an
abundant water supply for irriga-
tion next Simmer.
This brings up the Old question
bf storage reservoirs. The Love
lock Tribune says that there will
never be anything like permanehcy
of values in that valley until stor-
age reservoirs are Built. The
same state Of affairs not only in
Lovelock valley but mostly
throughout the State. Even in
wet seasons there is need OF RESET
voirs. Often there is abundant
Snow fall in tie mountains and it
goes OF before the irrigating sea-
Bon has fairly begun.
The Tribune says there is capt.
tai enough in this valley to build
storage reservoirs at the Hum
boldt House. And the only way
for them to be built is for the peo-
pie Of this valley to take hold of
the matter themselves. It is too
uncertain to wait for government
aid. To have outside capital build
them is to mortgage the valley for
all time. Labor aid teams will
build the works and we have these
here at home, 1t is estimated
that the loss to the ranchers here
in one dry year would more than
equal the cost of the reservoirs.
Now is a good time to inaugurate
the work. The time will never be
more opportune. The necessities
for the reservoirs was never more
apparent than at the present time
and the people will never be in a
better position to construct the
works than they are to-day.

Will Help the State

A correspondent of the Haw-
thofne Bulletin says that it it
were not for the cowardice OF cap
ital, Nevada would be the greatest
mining State in the Union. Wheth-
or or no this would actually be the
case it plenty of capital we're
brought in, we will not venture an
assertion; but mining companies
with capital SEEM slow to make de-
velopments east of the Sierras and
west of the Rocky mountains. In
California, along the mother lode,
capital seems always willing to de-
yelop a hole in the ground that
has produced a few pieces OF
quartz, or to bdild a mill near a
ledge of So ore with only a twenty
four hours run in sight; but to
get the companies Interested in
Nevada and California east bf the
Sierras, where good mines do ex-
ist, seems a difficult problem
Tonopah will advertise the Sage
brush State; next is influence in
getting companies started.

Robert Grayson, a colored Creek cit

in the city yesterday and called on
Col. Shoenfelt, U. S. Indian agent.
Grayson brought with him a copy of
a proclamation recently issued Dy
Lat-tah Niece, commanding all Creei,
citizenss to meet at the HickorJ
Grounds square, Saturday. February
l, where and when it is proposed to
meet and hold council under the ar
ticles of the treaty of 1882.
1t is, further than what is stated in
the proclamation, not known what
the intention of Lat-tah and his band
are, but it is probable that some OH,
Ger Of the government will be in hear
ing distance OF the warriors of the
Snake band and the authorities will
no doubt keep well informed.

The sponge ia an animal and not a
vegetable as some state 1t breathes,
eats and, when in the water. is filed
with mucus. The sponge in its famil.

are known to grow at depth Of 200
feet and live oven deeper. doubtless
At the depth of fifty feet they can be
forked by an expert fisher, but at n
greater depth they must be got by
diving
Sponge fishers use a glass by which
sponges can be seen growing on the
bottom. The instrument Is I'm the ma
ture Of a pail with glass bottom, at
tached to the bow of the boat. IL is
submerged, so as TO steady the vision,
which otherwise would be contorted

sponges grow is very clear, and bottom
