Shot A Toe off

j. C. Hayden of the U. S. signal serv-
ice here met with a very painful acct
dent yesterday while out practicing
with a new automatic shot gun which
he had just bought. 1t happened that
Mr.. Hayden had the muzzle of the gun
resting on his foot while fixing the
mechanism, and thinking the safety
was on. While In this position the
gun was discharged. shooting off a
portion of the fourth toe on his right
foot. DR.. Giroux was called and Mr.
Hayden taken to the sanitarium. where
1t was found necessary to amputate
two joints of the injured toe. Mr.
Hayden is resting easy today and is
thankful that the accident was no
worse, as 1t is almost a miracle that
he did not lose the whole foot.

Elko Wins

The Winnemucca High school teams
returned Saturday night from Elko on
No. S. and although defeated. report
having had a fine time. The Elkoites
are surely royal entertainers.
The basket ball game was an excit-
ing and nlosl closely contested one. In
the first half Elko scored four points
Ethel R.gsby throwing two field goals
In the second half Winnemucca
scored one point. Kathleen Lying
throwing place goal. The team work
of both clubs was good, but Winnie
muccas team work deserves special
mention. A disadvantage our girls
had to contend with was the fact that
the basket ball game was put off until
late in the evening.
The girls are not convinced that
Elko has the better team and are ir
hopes of having a game about month
later, If the Elkoites are willing. II
would be wise for the Elko girls tc
bring their sunbonnets. as the game
would be played in the morning.

delightful concert was given by Cos
groves Concert orchestra, company
of musical entertainers of much more
than ordinary ability. This was the

pieces In the volume of it's harmonies.
Among its selections which found fa-
vor with the audience were those from
King Dodo" and the imitation of the
Indian pow-wow. which was executed
with remarkable skill. The feature OF
the specialties was the aluminium
chimes. which. when manipulated by
four of the leading men of the company
gave forth pleasing harmonies with
bell-like clearness. The company was
greeted by a large and very appreci-
ative aud:ence.-Sioux City Journal

Gentlemen connected with the de-
partment of agriculture are constantly
startling the world with their new dis
coveries, predictions and activity In all
the feds of science and romance. Mr.
Coville, the chef botanist, wants So
c.eties formed for the preservation of
wild flowers. He thinks folks should
not pick them. Professor l.. c. Howard
has caused CONSERVATION in the south
by asserting that the cotton boil weevil
cannot be exterminated. 1t will con-
tinue on its devastating march until 1t
has gone all over the cotton belt. Like
the Colorado potato beetle, neither r.v-
ers, quarantine stations, Paris green
nor bulletins viii stop its march. He
hopes to find something for the weevi
to eat which they will like better than
cotton bolls. Prof. Howard may be a
little too Dessimistic. He recently had
a fall from his bicycle. The copper
water and lime mixture pronounced by
the department a preventive of ty-
phoid fever of put into old wells ard
eisterns teeming with germs has at
tracted attention both at home and in
Europe. 1t is a seven-days wonder

stated that the two men had some diff

his pocket knife and cut Mr.. Lewis six

cuts. DR.. Giroux was called and
dressed the wounds. which are not con-
sidered dangerous. For some reason
