when camped in the mountains
near Blue Lakes" says a Gardner
vile, Nevada, liar the other day.
II started out early one morning
in pursuit of anything that might
happen. Being armed with only
a muzzel-loading shot gun, [ ran
to a tree when l saw a bear, and
climbed up pretty lively. l started
to load my gun, but to my horror
found that l had lost my shot flask.
The bear began to climb the tree,
and 1 was perspiring freely; but
the temperature was far below zero
and the drops of sweat froze fast
as they dropped from the skin.
Grabbing a handful of these frozen
balls, l rammed them into the gun
and let the bear have it between
the eyes. He was hot headed and
the globules melted as they enter
ed the skull and, of course, he died
of water on the brain. Gazette.

TERMS.
Nevada and Irri-
CATION.

F. n. Newell, chief photograph
or of the Geological Survey,
who is in charge of the irrigation
work undertaken in Nevada, states
that within twenty-five years Ne
vada will have a population of
10000 people. Inasmuch as the
State has at present less than 40,
600 inhabitants, the expert on ir
rigation predicts wonderful devel-
opment for the State.
Nevada is rich in resources, but
handicapped by bad laws and poor
management, which have retarded
her development. When the State
was admitted to the Union it was
permitted to select its two million
acres of school lands instead of
being limited to particular sections
under the general law. The lands
selected contained the springs and
water courses of the State, and
these were virtually turned over to
the great cattle companies, Set
tiers going into Nevada found rich
land, but no available water for ir-
rigation, although water was there
il properly distributed, sufficient
for all the States needs. The re-
suit was that the settler was forced
to move on, and Nevada, the rich
est in resources Of the inter-moun-
tain States, has made no perceptible
advancement in twenty five years.
Now, however, it is evident that
a new era is to open up for the
battle born State. Mr.. Newell
bases his predictions upon the
practicability of the system of ir-
rigation for Nevada at present in
course of construction, which COM
pleted will place thousands of acres
of the most fertile land in the State
under profitable cultivation.
It. is remarkable that the appar-
emily barren sagebrush plains of
Nevada r in reality most pro-
ductive when the n thing nee.
essary to make them fertile, water,
is brought to them Wherever the
experiment has been tried tho
most satisfactory results have been
obtained, and none who know the
character of Nevada soils, and real
ICES the thoroughness of the sys-
tenn Of irrigation which the gov
eminent has undertaken, doubts
the soundness of Mr.. Newell's pre-
diction.-Sac. Union.

Mrs Josephine Hess. the janitor. said that
Feron was month behind in his rent. and had
been pressed for 1t. No money was found in the
apartment, and 1t is thought that Feron was
slowly starving to death. and that he feared

For a year and a half Feron had lived alone
in the three rooms which he had occupied with
his wife before her death At that time they
had little money saved. but Feron was getting
old and his eyesight poor. He could not OBJ

Mrs. Hess said that in the last two weeks she

cat. Several of the neighbors sent food to his
room from time to time, and he always accepted
1t with thanks. He had lived in the house for
about two years and in the neighborhood for
about ten. In his younger days he was an ex-

loved art, and had many photographs of famous
