STATE NEWS NOTES.

The Reno hod carriers union has voted
Dor.
There is said to be an epidemic of pneu-
monia at Wadsworth, several deaths
having occurred this week.
1t will require eighteen months to CONS
plete the cutoff on the Central Pacific be-
tween Osino and North Fork.
Belle Scott, the companion of the negro,
who shot Constable Leeper at Reno, was
sentenced to ten years in San Quentin for
attempting to assassinate Chief Witt
man of San Francisco.
Four negroes struck town last night
and set out to find Constable Leeper,
saying that they were looking for the
coon killer" They met their match,
for officer Leeper had the pleasure Of
clubbing three of them to the county
Jail and at last accounts was looking for
the fourth.-Reno Journal. I
The place known as the goat RANCH"
located on Mill creek and eighteen miles
south of Battle Mountain, is becoming
quite notorious. Two killings, a sui
clue and a rape case within several years
is the brief criminal history of the place.;
But, nevertheless, the best Angora goats
in the United States are raised at the
place.-Austin Reveille.
Erickson and Peterson, the railroad
contractors at Osino, have a rather novel
way of paying OF their men. As soon as
a man quits he is given a time check
stating the amount due, but which is
not transferable until signed by Erickson1
& Peterson in the town of Elko. The OBJ
ject of this is to prevent the men from
spending their money at the saloons
which have sprung up where the work is
going IN.

STRUCK ARTESIAN WATER.
Flowing Well at Water C~ompany's Pumping
Plant.

A flow of what is believed to be ar
tesian water was struck yesterday in the
Winnemucca Water & Light Company's
Bridge street.
When the pumping plant was installed
several years ago a well ten feet in diam
eter was sunk to a depth of eighteen feet
by the old water company. The well did
not prove a success, however, as it
could be pumped dry in a few minutes.
Ever since 1T has been necessary to pump
and fall months when the supply from
the mountains ran short. The river wa
ter was of course unfit for domestic uses.
Day before yesterday J. M. Taylor be-
gan work with his well-boring machin-
cry at the pump house, having been en-
ployed by the new company to sink the
old well 100 feet deeper in the hope hat
a flow of water of some consequence
might be struck so that water would not
nave to be pumped from the river this
year. Last night Mr.. Taylor was com
PEELED to cease sinking at a depth Of
fifty feet, having struck a boulder which
his drill was not heavy enough to pene-
trate. The water rose in the casing to
within a few feet OF the surface, but the
extent of the flow was not ascertained
until this morning. when the derrick was
removed n the casing cut OF a few feet
from the bottom of the old well. To the
surprise Of the workmen a rush of wa
ter came up from the bottom of the cas-
ing and poured over the top of the six
inch pipe into the old well, which began
to fill rapidly. The pump was started and
run for over an hour, raising 300 gallons
OF water a minute, but the water in the
well was not lowered to any extent.
When the pump was stopped the well
filled up to within six feet of the top.
A flowing artesian well has undoubtedly
been struck-at least that is the opin-
ion of Mr.. Taylor and all others who
saw the water pouring from the pipe
under heavy pressure. The pumping test
made indicates that the supply is ample
and that there will be no necessity for
the use of river water this summer. IN
less the well fails, the town will be sup
piled with cold well water, clear as
crystal, during the time when 1t is ne
cessary to run the pump.
