AFTER THE STORM.
Great Good and Little Damage the Re-
suit Of the Downpour.

oUII OF InS OOWUPOUT.
Early Thursday morning the storm
that has been invading this section for
the past four days drifted off and to
the surprise of many the mountains re-
tanned fresh coating of snow and the
valley looked as spank and clean as
a warship before action.
As the day passed, the reports from
up the country began to come in. In
a number of localities in Carson valley
the owners Of farms were forced to
take to highlands. A few minor bridges
and foot crossings were taken up by
the roots but no great damage was
done. .... ,...
1t was the common rumor that Grail
dlebaugh's bridge had gone out during
the night but this was not fact. The
water was well up onto the planking
but the old rattletrap affair withstood
the storm and it Is only little more
shaky than before. It is understood
that Douglas county will build q new
bridge this summer to take the place
OF the old AFFAIR that has been there
for nearly half century.
Up towards Markleville a number Of
small bridges were swept out while
the low lands in the canyons that
are used for summer pasturage we're
flooded. The water soon subsidized and
there is no danger, and little damage
done up that way.
Over in Washoe valley the same
condition exists. Washoe lake, the
drainage spot for the valley streams
is higher than it has been for many
years and it is believed that number
of the small club houses will 60 adrif:
when the spring freshets are addel

Lake Tahoe raised over a foot in
the past week, which is remarkable
for this time of year as the farmers
and everyone sizes up the storm, they
all decided that it is the best thing
that has happened in many years and
there seems to be another headed
this way.

A BOLD ROBBERY.
Three Masked Men Make q Biz Haul /
At Caliente.

=
At Caliente. -
CALIENTE, New, Feb. 23,-Three
masked bandits held up construction
gang on the Los Angeles & San Pedro
railroad at an early hour this morning
and made way with between two and
three thousand dollars The car was
entered while the occupants slept
and all were reused from their hunks.
Two men held guard while the third
searched the men and premises. Not
a shot was fired and but one lahore:
injured during the hold-up There is
no clew to the thieves and it is
thought that they are out of the coun-
try.
The employees of the construction
work had been paid OF the day before
and had most of the earnings in coin.
Many Of them had the savings Of
several months on their person, ami
the individual loss was great.
The sleeping car had fifteen occu-
pants, principally Greeks, in it when
three masked men entered with level
eu revolvers and commanded them to
line up against the wall, faces out
and hands in the air. One bandit COM
manded the situation from the door
while the other kept guard on the
outside. The third proceeded to rifle
the pockets of the badly frightened oc-
cupants.
One Greek who showed some hesi-
tacion to obey the command Of the
bandits was battered over the head
with a revolver and received an ugly
looking cash as result Of failing to
comply with the order.
J. is estimated that $4,000 was TAX
en- from the car the entire earnings OF
the men.
Most of the money stolen was in
foreign coins, consisting OF Peruvian
gold pieces, Canadian twenty-dollal
pieces and some english soverigns
The heaviest looser was a Mexican
who had over 81 900 in his possession

BIG BATTLE ON,
Japs and Russians Mixing Affairs at
Port Arthur.

Japs and Russians Mixing Affairs at
Port Arthur.
SAN FRANCISCO Feb. 25.-Bullc-
tins from the seat of war tells of the
the greatest naval battle being fought
at Port Arthur that has taken place
in the history of the new war. The
Japanese have opened a general bonn
bardment on the Russian stronghold.
Twenty-three ships of the Japanese
navy approached the outer bay and
early in the day commenced a steady
bombardment Of the port. The land
batteries replied and the storm of force
has been going since early in tho
morning. .z.s
The Russian ships in the port have
been kept moving from one quarter to
the other. The Japs, with their great
mendous power in their hand and they
are welding it with q terrible might.
The fire in the many cases has been
with terrible accuracy. Early in the
fight a couple of japanese cruisers
were seen to 60 to the bottom and sew
eral withdrew on account of injuries
received.
The Russian war ships seem to be
recovering their craftsmanship and
some of the work done today was tell
ing. Both sides have suffered heavily
and the casualty list will be heavy
on both sides.
The Japs have taken a desperate
chance. The last reports are to the ef
| feet that they have silenced a coupl!
of the land batteries and have ap
preached to the 5000 yard range and
were moving down of what remai1

Land Slide on the v. at.

The wet weather caused some in.
convenience to the v. & T. yesterday
A land slide at the Vivian cut threw
several hundred tons of lost dirt onto
the rails and the result was that all
passengers and mail had to be trans
ferred around the slide. The local
train is on one side and the passenger
went that far, where all hands transfer.

day. The rain of the night before left
the streets as clean as a floor and in
side of few hours after the storm,

This was aided by warm south wind
and the before night fall dust was
flowing up the street. 1t only goes to

PLAN FOR WATER
Large and Enthusiastic Audi
sncs Gather to Hear Plans
Of Government.

The large and enthusiastic all,
dience which greeted the speakers
at the irrigation meeting at
Lang's opera house last night
WAS sufficient proof that our citi-
zens consider this project of-su-
preme Importance to this section.
The meeting was presided over
by A. j. Mitchell OF this place,
one OF the directors of the Pay
cite Boise Water Useis' associa-
ton. The seating capacity Of
the large hall was taxed to it's
utmost, and the closest attention
given to the speakers through
out. The principal address was
made by Hon. J. II. Lowell. He
was preceded by short talks by
Walter Griffiths of Caldwell and
d. X. Hubbard of Boise. Mr..
Lowell's address was too long
for repetition in our limited
space. He spoke OF the vastness
OF the project. the immense area
of arid lands that would be
brought under cultivation, and
the untold benefits that would
accrue to this section through
the development of our resour-
ces az contemplated by this pro
ject. Mr.. Lowell assured his au-
dience that not only would every
prior right be respected, but that
il would be made u better right
than it is to-day. Mr. Lowell
stated that it was the desire OF
the directors TO closeup the mat
ter during the next two months,
and ii they succeeded in doing SO
there was no doubt but that
work would begin next season.
Blank contracts have been pre-
pared for subscriptions for water
aud will be placed in the hands OF
an agent i'll each town, and it is
earnestly desired that all desiring
to secure the benefits OF this
proposition will enter into such
contract during the next month.
Literature descriptive and explain
atory OF the project will also be
furnished to the agent where all
who desire may obtain it.
