been undertaken by Howard Wilford
Bell of New York, who announces his
intention of issuing monthly "the per.
manent books of all iteratures present
ed to American readers in the best
obtainable English versions" The series
is to be known as 1.-THE Unit Books
and opens with the Letters and Ad'
dresses of Abraham Lincoln" and "The
Marble Faun." The price Of the books
is to be determined in this way: One
cent is charged for every twenty-five
pages of printed matter. A paper
wrapper is given with the printed
sheets. The cloth cover is thirty cents
additional, and the leather binding fifty
cents additional, to the price OF the
sheets. The quality of the book-mak

cultivated taste.

NEVADA PRESS COMMENT.

ALI. Chartz in Gardnerville Courier.
The State Examiner for the State
Board of Revenue ran up against
rather hard proposition on his trip to
Storey in his interview with the Board
of County Commissioners OF that
county. Sheriff Quirk, who is the AS.
SCISSOR. showed that all property in
Storey County, except railroad prop
erty, is already assessed at over twice
its value and not enough revenue can
be raised at that. and if the rate is to
be reduced according to the require
ments of the law, it would be impossi'
BILE to run the country government
The State Examiner sympathized very
deeply, but offered no further comfort
than the statement that in Elko County
property is not assessed at over one
sixth its value, and therefore the law
ought to be upheld, until all property is
assessed at its true cash value. Ii is
to be hoped that he included railroad
property in his statement. However
the printed reports don't show that any
one but the Sheriff used the word rail-
road in the conversation.

How the Tonopah Riot Happened
Then and Now.

The report which originated with
the Tonopah papers and which re-
ceived wide circulation, to the effect
that a committee from labor Union Of
that town, led by its President. had in
the middle of the night marched upon
Chinatown aud beaten its inhabitants
over the head with revolvers, robbed
them, and sent them out to perish upon
the desert, where an aged Chinaman
was actually found beaten to death,
proves, to have been greatly exagger-
ated-probably caused by the bitter
enmity Of those papers against the
Union, and love of Chinese. It turns
out, that in order to clear themselves
OF the imputation the men got them
selves indicted aud tried, and after .
very thorough. fair and impartial trial
lasting over a week, the jury found
that the Chinese enticed these men
down to Chinatown, and when they
got them into their dens, they firmly
inserted their shirt collars in their left
hands and placing revolver in their
right, they butted their heads up against
them trying to break their weapons.
One old Chinanaan, more vicious and
insistent than the others, actually died
from the effects of his exertion. The
proofs being so clear. the jury promptly
returned verdict in accordance with
the facts. ts.-Gardnerville Courier.

ANNUAL ASSESSMENT WORK.
General Land Offices Views of the
Work That Counts.

Commissioner Williamson of the
General Land Office thus gives the
view of the department concerning
character of annual assessment on min
ing claims. "All improvements made
on mining claim having direct rela-
ton to the development thereof may be
taken into consideration. Any build.
ing. machinery, roadway, or other inn
provements used in connection with,
and essential to. the practical develop
ment of the claim will enter into and
form part of the expenditures for i'm
provements. Necessarily, however,
improvements of the character indi-
Gated must be associated with actual
excavations. such as tunnels, cuts, shafts,
etc., to clearly show that they are in
tended for use in connection with the
claims under consideration. A house
in which to live may be considered a
necessity. but it is doubtful if the
house could be charged mp against an
nual expenditure on one or more claims,
for if this were SO person might locate
twenty claims and build $4,000 house
in the center of the group, ostensibly
for the benefit of the entire group. The
next year he might build barn or add to
the house another $4,000 worth, thereby
holding the claim second year, though
not dollar was spent in developing
the group. The principle involved is
the same for one location or two. A
hoist building or blacksmith.shop gal
lows frame or other construction, or
machinery for the actual benefit of one
or more locations may properly be
charged to annual assessment.

NEW LYMPH CURES TYPHOID,

run more than half its regular course.
The improvement was invariably per.
manent.
A small quantity of the lymph is in.
jected into the body three times a day.
sometimes in the thigh, sometimes in
