SNOW AT TAHOE.

NJ. 2. Ryan, who recently went TO
Lake Tahoe, writes that there is thirty
miles of snow on the mountains and it
was seven feet deep at the summit on
the 9th. 1t was then very heavy, wet
and not safe for travel ON foot. He
found that storms had done consider
able damage to the State road, partic-
ularly on the lower part of it. Com
missioner Lyon was also over the
road and reports the same thing. A
bad wash out exists at Cedar Rock.
No trees were on the road to Straw
berry. Not much damage was done to
the roads around the lake. The
weather was lovely at the lake on the
10th and some ground was free from
snow.-ElDorado Republican.

Patrick Crowley Passes Away.

Patrick Crowley, one of the most
famous of Nevada's prisoners, died
at the State Prison this morning. from
a hemorrhage of the lungs. Crowley
has been a victim of consumption for
the past two or three years and this
fact has been set forth to support his
application for "A pardon; but it did
not avail. Death came suddenly.
The history of crowley's crime is
too well known to bear repetition.
The history of the efforts of his friends
to secure a pardon for him, and the
history of their marvellous friendship
probably never will be written.
Without.any apparent influence or
weight; without any particular stand
ing before his crime, loyal friends
have worked so hard for his interests
that his pardon is well known to have
figured in State politics for years.

IMPORTANT DEAL.
The Hercules Mining, Milling and
Power Company Acquires valu-
able Properties....Peter Curtz
Showing the Metal heis Made of

The News recently described the OBJ
iects and purposes of the ineorpora-
ton by Peter Curtz and associates of
the Hercules Mining, Milling & Pow
er Company, with principal Office at
Gardnerville, and field of operations
in Alpine and Douglas counties. In
formation has Just been received of
the purchase by Mr.. Gurtz for the
Hercules Company of the Colorado
and Advance group of mines, situated
on Monitor Mountain, Alpine county.
There has been over S150,000 eX-
pended in the development of these
properties and over one million dol
lars has been produced from its high
grade ores in early days. 1t has been
found impossible to work the low
grade ores ut any profit, hitherto, but
with the power about to be installed
by the Hercules Power company, and
improved methods of reduction, sue
cess is beyond preadventure of doubt.
The ore deposit is over 1000 feet wide,
and in it are deposits of different
grades of ore, some being rather high
and much of lower grades. The sup
ply is unlimited, practically. No one
now living will see its exhaustion.
The tunnels, drifts and crosscuts show
low grade ore everywhere. Mining
experts have given opinion under oath
to that effect and it only requires in
telligence and enterprise to bring
these immense bodies of ore within a
profitable line of reduction.
The ore is found in n formation of
decomposed kaolin and soft porphyry,
and occurs in large deposits The
lower tunnel is over 1900 feet in lem
9Th. and taps the vein formation at a
depth of over 200 feet, and the ground
below is not explored at all, and the
formation going down clearly on the
tunnel level, and considering its width
proves to the miner the immense sup
ply which can be brought within the
profitable line of reduction.
Steps are now, being taken to in
stall the power. plant and reduction
mills. II is estimated that the mills
to be built, will require at least 200
horse power, and it is intended to
build power plants that will land 1900
horse power. 1t is proposed to util-
lie the surplus power for general mil
ling, lighting and pumping purposes
in Carson valley.
The diversion of the waters of the
Carson river for the purpose of sup
plying power will not in the least in
terfere with irrigation because the
water will be returned to the river
above where it is now diverted for any
such use, the fall of the water being
such as to enable the company to do
that.
1t can well be imagined that if a

BECAME WOOD
Dead Squirrel Grew Into Tree and Turned
70 unheri

Dead Squirrel Grew Into Tree and Turned
to Lumber!
Smiths Grove (Ky.) Times.
The following story is given us by a
gentleman whose veracity we would not
doubt: About six years ago in the fall
a hunter shot squirrel, which lodged
between two small twigs the size Of a
lead pencil. This being near the mans
house, he watched the squirrel each week.
The first spring the twigs grew and the
squirrel remained in the position it lodged.
The second year the twigs, which had
grown to be the size of mans fingers,
died, and so did the limb die. The third
year saw no change, but during the fourth
year the tail Of the squirrel dropped off,
and the man noted no change the fifth,
but the sixth year he secured the limb
and squirrel and found to his surprise,
that the squirrel had become white oak
bump. Under the microscope could be
seen the hairs in the wood. The places
for the eyes and ears were perfect, and
| where the chin and forelegs had touched
| the twig it grew to them. The legs were
| intact, but the feet had disappeared. The
/ body of the squirrel had grown to be
i about four inches in diameter.
/ What puzzled the gentleman who gave
| us this is, thru what process could the
dead animal become wood? AS proof o.
! the story we can furnish the name of the
1 man who has the freak of nature in his
i possession, and who watched it from the
1 time it first lodged.

GOT REVENGE
Crafty Horse Pretended Friendship
and Nipped His Enemy.

!, Tom. one Of the team of horses used by the
San Francisco (Cal.) police department for patrol
wagon service, is a. wise animal. Hour after
hour every day he stands near the city hall
awaiting SUMMONS to rush to the aid of some
person In need Of medical attention or to bring
to tho prison some malefactor. His waits are not
tedious ones, for his idle time is spent in MUNICH
ing the cubes of sugar his driver and other at
taches Of the prison and hospital always have
for him.
!, Some time ago he took particular delight in
showing his dislike for city hall janitor. who,
whenever he passed the horse, hit him resound-
ing slap on the back. Tom tried time and again
to kick his tormentor, but his harness prevented
him. Then the janitor commenced making peace
overtures. He brought the horse sugar and occa.
sionally carrot, but the animal refused to take
them from the stick on which the janitor held
them out to him iI9; = Then he tried other tempting
to make up. Then he apparently .relented and
one morning greeted the janitor with a 5whinny
of pleasure. E0boidened, the tanitor offered the
horse lump Of sugar on his, hand. Tom &C
janitors hand and gave f. 1 squeeze between
his strong teeth that caused the tanit,r to gel
with PAIN Then Tom whinnied again., this time
with great display Of pleasure.
