TOTAL ECLIPSE OF THE
SUN TOOK PLACE TODAY

The total eclipse of the sun, which will
be visible in some parts of the world
today. will not be seen at all on the Pa
cific coast Professor Burkhalter of the
Chabot observatory states that for the
most part it will only be partial in the
United States. The section which will
have a glimpse of Old Sol with his face
darkened will not extend past the mid
die west and only very small part of
this section will have a total eclipse.
The pathway of the shadows begins
at sunrise south OF the Hudson Bay
crosses the Atlantic ocean, beginning
short distance north of Newfoundland
crosses the northeastern portion of
Spain, across northeastern Algiers, goes
through northern Tuns, then through
Assuan on the Nile and ends at sunset
in southeastern Arabia. The duration
of the eclipse will be about 2 2-3 minutes
in each locality.

blacksmith shop for doing all the work
necessary to be done on the ranch. Mr..
Berry has large and commodious sheep
shearing pens and dipping plant on
home station. He has several Berk-
shire sows and shoats that are as fine
specimens of the hog family as I have
seen, from which he kills enough hogs
with hams and bacon. and in a year OF
two more the supply will be greater than
home consumption will require. Tur-
keys, chickens, guinea fowls and ducks
are as thick as quail in the brush. The
Jordan Valley Stock Co. has a fine
property and from my observation of
how it is managed / should say it was
big dividend payer. Mr.. Berry sold
1900 of this springs lambs the other day
to Henry Levy of San San Francisco

JAMES A. YERRlNCTON WILL
ACCEPTS IMPORTANT POST

James A. Yerington, one Of Nevada S
most popular and gifted native sons,
has been appointed chairman of the ex-
ecutive committee of the Pure Food
Association Of the United States. 1t is
an important position and carries with
it good salary. We congratulate the
association on getting such a capsble
man as Mr.. Yerington to direct it's af-
fairs.
The object Of the association is now
to secure the passage of federal law
prohibiting the adulteration of foods
and drinks. and this task will fall upon
Mr.. Yerington during the next session
of Congress.
AS the matter will be before Congress
all winter, Mr.. Yerington's services will
be in demand at the capital. where he
will spend several months urging the
passage of the bills which will be in his
charge.

600 acres of meadow from which fodder
is gathered for caring for $4,000 sheep

The company has 200 acres in alfalfa on

rails are conveniently arranged for

ougf1y understands ranching and the
handling of live stock. The ranch en-
p'oys not less than twenty-five men the

clipped this spring 10000 pounds ana

amount to fully 10000 pounds. During
the season of lambing the closest atten-
ton is required, coupled with executive
ability of no mean order to look after
the young lambs and their mothers dur

Japan Relinquishes Claim for
Indemnity and Terms are
Accepted by Witte.

Peace between Russia and Japan was
practically concluded at yesterday morn
ings session of the conference. In the
final struggle the Russians achieved the
victory. For the sake of peace the
Japanese with a magnanimity worthy
of their heroic achievements in this war
met the ultimatum of the Czar and
abandoned their demands not only for
reimbursement for the cost of the war,
but for the re-purchase of the northern
half of Sakhalin, Russia at the same
time agreeing to the division of the
island. The Japanese also withdrew ar
ticles 10 and IL of the peace conditions
originally proposed. The delegates of
the respective missions will be called in
at the next session and the actual work
of formulating the treaty of peace will
begin.
An armistice will be arranged.

all county officers will have to sup
ply their department with stamps

friendliest feeling towards the home

of indifference towards it. II
would be such an easy matter
when friend visits you TO call up
the newspaper Office and tell about
it. This would also tend to make
the stay of your friend more
pleasant, for there is not a soul
living that doee not like to be re-
garded as Of sufficient Importance

the lasting friendship of the news

stop him wherever you meet him
and tell him any little item of news,
and to win the everlasting graft

items. You need not fear that you
will be suspected of desiring to get
