sinsed Hair of Cat and Doc.

Henry Adams, Henry county far.
mer, was in the city yesterday with a
very naked dog and strange tale of
the odd effects of a bolt of lightning
that struck his house during the Sc
we're storm Of Monday afternoon.
The lightning struck the kitchen,
running down the pipe of the stove,
shaving the fur clean from the back of
a cat that was asleep beneath the
stove, striking the dog as lightly as it
had struck the cat, running down the
animals legs to the ground, leaving a
trail of singed fur in its wake and
doing no damage to either animal be.

Snow Situation.

The snow situation in Nevada
was very much improved by the
heavy falls of snow which occur
red during the early part of the
month. The high winds which
accompanied the snowstorms
drifted enormous quantities of
snow into the ravines and gull
ches, especially over the water
sheds of the Carson, Walker and
Truckee rivers. Reports indicate
there is a deficiency of snow in
the mountains over the water
shed OF the Humboldt river.
Warm weather and heavy rains
at higher altitude than usual
caused much of the snow to dis
appear from many of the low
ranges throughout the State.
Prospects are favorable for a
good flow of water in the Car
son, Walker and Truckee rivers
during the coming season. The
flow in the Humboldt promises
to be about the same as last
year, probably somewhat less.
