A Perilous Experience.

The hunting party consisting of
John and George Dangberg, Abe Har-
ris and Fritz Neddenreip which left
here about the first of the month for
the high Sierras, had narrow escape
from being "snowed inn and frozen to
death. They were headed for terri
tory know as the Dardenelles, in
Stanislaus county, and had nearly
reached their destination when the
storm overlook them. Approaching
their perilous position, they started to
return and got as far as the Meadows,
where they found cabin. Having
plenty of provisions and enough feed
for their stock to last three or four
days, they felt secure, but on the
fourth day their horse feed gave out.
With the snow still falling on the
morning of the fifth day, they STRUCK
out for Blood s, in Bear valley,
through snow up to their horses
bellies and finally reached there. 1t
was an experience fraught with hard
ships nd will long be remembered.

A more enthusiastic admirer of Gold

the well known clothing man, would
be hard to find. In conversation with
The writer Mr.. Cohn said that he went
to the camp skeptical, but he is now
thoroughly convinced that it is the
greatest gold camp ever discovered.
lie says sanitary conditions are much
better than reported and as evidence
OF the fact points out that only Iseven
deaths have occurred in the camp. The
people are law abiding citizens and
will not tolerate claim jumping. The
only draw back to ones pleasure is
the lack of accommodations. an ordi-
nary bed costing 81 a night and often
one is required to sleep on the ground.
Several Carson valley people are at
the camp and several will come out
with small fortunes.
Will Frey, son of Laurence Frey of
Genoa, has a splendid claim in the
Bull Frog district and Sam says he
could easily pull out with $4,000 or
$4,000.
Joe Wilson, who formerly conduct.
ed the Valhalla saloon, has onesof the
best paying propositions in Goldfeld,
and is reported to be worth between
$780, 900 and $4,000.
Ernest scossa, of Diamond valley is
doing splendidly and is certain to pull
out With a small fortune.
Dame Fortune seems to have smiled
kindly on Sam, for he leaves for that
camp in a few days to reside per-
manently.

In Hard Luck.
State Engineer.

Albert Jackson of Gardnerville is in
hard luck. He made application for a
saloon license, which was granted, but
which he alleges, by some mistake was
made out in the name of Robert Ben
net, who, armed with the license, took
possession of the saloon owned by
Jackson and refused to recognize him
as the proprietor. It's pretty tough
when a man can't get a drink over
his own bar without producing the
price Journal.

WAR FROM TATTOO MARKS.
New Guinea Tribe Fought Because
It's Design Was Copied-Un-
written Copyright Law.

One special feature of many Of the
tribes inhabiting New Guinea is the I'M
written law of copyright IN the de-
signs with which they tattoo their
bodies, says writer in Stray Stories.
Each tribe has its own particular sys-
tenn of ornamenting the body, and
should a member of any other tribs
initiate the pattern, it is regarded as
quite sufficient reason for declara-
ton of war between the two tribes.
A young warrior fell in love with a
girl of neighboring tribe: the girl
favored his suit. but there was rival
in her own tribe This rival wished to
know why the girl did not look upon
him with equal favor, and why she
went outside the tribe for husband.
The girl hesitated, and then replied
either as subterfuge or as state.
ment of actual fact, but probably thu
former-that the rival was not SO well
ornamented as was the sutton from tho
neighboring tribe
The home rival watched for the sue
cessful sutton, took note OF the pattern.
and copied It., The. other tribe resented
this infringement, and declared war, In
the course of which both suitors wers
killed.

To q nervous person vulgar manners

Of eating, the relish. for food, and in a
measure units the digestive organs for
their work. The fact Is, it does a

to claim that 1t is not often the case

How to Treat Your Hands.

The exigencies of domestic life make
many people treat their hands as if they
were insensitive things. The following
simple rules may bring such sufferers
solid comfort: The hands are to be
rubbed over at night with mixture of
lanolin, one part. and sweet almond oil,
three parts Large gloves of kid or
leather are then to- be donned: For
washing the hands the best soap and
warm water must be used and it is pref
cradle to employ lather. Rinsing
should always follow washing. Finally,
this lotion is to be freely rubbed over the
skin: Precipitated chalk, one ounce;
glycerin, one ounce and half; saturated
solution Of gelatin, two drains; rose
water to make eight ounces. The bot
tie should be well shaken before its con-
tents are poured out AS the chalk has a
tendency to deposit round the nails. the
latter must be carefully wiped.-Chi-
