LONDON, July s.-The latest cleo

Is one for killing flies. 1t resembles
gridiron placed vertically with a
horizontal shelf. The fine wires of
which 1t Is made are connected with
a battery and are placed so close to-

touch two wires. As the wires are
alternately positive and negative. the
fly completes the circuit and Is in

The territory now comprising the
State of Nevada was a portion of the
domain acquired from Mexico by
treaty after the close of the Mexican
war. 1t was a part of Utah Terri
tory, and the first settlement within
its borders was made in 1851 by a
party of Mormons at Genoa, now the
seat of justice of Douglas county. On
March 2, 1861, the Territory of Nevada
was organized by Act of Congress, and
a few weeks later James w. Nye was
appointed Governor of the Territory.
The first Territorial Legislature was
convened at Carson City, October l.,
1861, and the session ended the 10Th
of November, 1861. Congress appro-
priated $40, 600 in currency, Their
worth on this coast, which was on a
coin basis, about seventy-five cents on
the dollar, to support a Territorial
Government, including the expenses of
the legislature. AS board-that is
bacon and beans-cost a dollar a meal
and whiskey ter dollars a gallon, the
Solons did not tarry longer than was
absolutely necessary. Honey Lake
Valley, California, was then supposed
to be in Nevada, as the summit of the
Sierra Nevada was conceded to be the
boundary line between the State and
Territory, and it was represented in
the Council by Isaac Roop, and in
the Assembly by John C. Wright.
BY act of the Legislature of 1862,
an election was held in 1863 to deter
mine whether the voters of the Terri
lOIy uSSIICu d oldIC bONCl ullIShIy dAu
to choose delegates to a Constitutional
Convention in the event of a majority
favoring a State Government. The
total vote cast was S,162, and of that
number 5,15S favored a State Govern
ment. A Constitutional Convention
held at Carson City framed a consti-
tuition which was rejected at an cleo
ton held January 10, 1864, by a vote
of 5,197 to 1881. The vote of the sew
eral counties stood as follows: Doug
las, 14S for. and 224 against; Esmer-
aida, 24O for, and $40 against; Hum
boldt, "a for, and 7S9 against; Ian
der, $50 for, and 1,746 against; Lyon,
and Churchill, 296 for and o. agaisnt;
Washoe, IT'S for, and S02 against.
Qrmsby and Storey counties voted
on the adoption of the Constitution,
but the votes were not officially can
vassed, as there was no data from
which the result coui~ be ascertained.
In 1864 a bill was pessed by Congress
authorizing the admission of Nevada
as a sovereign State Upon certain con
ditions. Governor Nye issued a pro-
clamation for an election in June,
1864, to choose delegates to a second
Constitutional Convention. This con
yention framed the present eonstitu-
ton of Nevada, which was adopted
by a vote of 9,131 out of a total vote
of II, 1893, a full implement of State
and county officers We're elected, and
on October 81. 1864, Nevada was ad-
mitted into the Union as a sovereign
State by proclamation of President
Lincoln.
The Act of Congress relating TO the
boundaries of the State of Nevada, APP
proved May 5, 1866, defines the bound-
aries of the State as follows:
