kAW RIVER is RISING.
Additional Rains Add, Force to the
Raging Waters.


Lawrence, Kan, Aug. 6.-As result OF
the heavy fall of rain here and west last
night the Kansas river here has risen
about three feet in the past twelve hours
The current is swift and has undermined
the north end of the new approach to
the wagon bridge and continues to eat
away the north bank.
Junction City, Kan, Aug. 6.-An inch
and a half of rain here last night caused
the Smoky Hill river to rise rapidly and
it IS now up over ten feet. A hundred
and eighty foot temporary bridge here
that took the place of the steel bridge
that was washed away by the food in
May, was swept away last night and the
only remaining bridge across the river in
this county is in great danger.
Kansas City, Aug. 6-The Kansas river
here has risen but slightly since yester-
day, and it is believed the water COM
ing this way from the west will spread
out before reaching Kansas City and
that no damage will result at this point.

Topeka citizens are alarmed by the heavy

reports of rising tributaries Of the river
TO the west and are packing UP their
valuables and preparing to fee TO higher
ground.
Topeka, Kan, Aug. 6.-The Kansas
river at this place is slowly rising. Last
nights rain amounted to over three
inches. On account of high water up
stream the river will be higher tomor-
row.

just attained to the advanced age of

stricken speechless.

interesting and exciting contests ever
held in this town. The football game
between the boys of the high schools
of Elko and Winnemucca will take
place on the baseball diamond at 2:3O
p. m.
The Elko boys are said to be in ex-
cellent condition. Our boys continue
their practice under the able direction
of Coach Ewing. Nothing has ever
before excited and aroused the en-
thusiasm of the people as these con-
tests have. Everyone should attend
and wear the blue and gold. Encour-
age the boys. Encouragement and en-
thusiasm will help them to win and
none were ever more worthy of praise.
The debate between the Elko-Win-
nmucca debating teams will be held

The Oracle of Stateline says that on
the Snowflake the miners have open
ed up an enormous ledge of $12 gold
ore. The last assay taken from the
Good Hope property showed 500 in
gold and 400 ounces in silver, and yet
no one in the camp was over excited.

The people of California for some
years depended largely upon Utah to
furnish them with alfalfa seed, says
the Eureka Sentinel, but last year t.
H. Johnson of Surprise Valley shipped

The grand total of their purchases
in that valley this year amount to
$50, 900 pounds of alfalfa seed, and 10
cents per pound was paid for most of
