POMONA IS STRENGTHENING
Experience With St. Vincents Urges
Coach Noble to Heroic Tactics
For Future Games
Special to The Herald.

Special to The Herald.
CLARBMONT, Nov. THE tie game
played with the st. Vincent football
team last Saturday is regarded here
as being as bad as a defeat. st. Vim
cent had a stronger team than ex-
pected, but the chief fault was with
the Pomona team.
AT only two or three times I'm the
game did It play with the usual snap
and speed which has so far character
lied the practice. When these flashes
OF the old form and speed did come,
st. Vincents line did not hold and
Pomona bucked five and ten yards and
ran ends at pleasure.
The game, while disappointing will
be the cause of a great improvement
i'm the next ten days. The lack of Wig
or was due partly to the unusually
slow game of the ST. Vincent team.
Especially during the second half,
time was taken out to the limit after
every down and the quarterback by de-
laying and changing signals, managed
to sorely try the patience of the on
lockers. After repeated warnings,
Hempel finally penalized st. Vincent
for unnecessarily delaying the game.
Pomona's line was seriously weak
ened by the loss of Goode at tackle
and Giffen, right guard, whose ankle
was Wrenched In practice the day be-
fore the game. Goode is out again for
signal practice this week and Giffen
will soon be back at his position. Ray
Smith, the star guard of last years
varsity, has been compelled to leave
the game by his physicians orders.
Prospects are far from dark and
those who expect Pomona to be beaten
easily in her heavy games later, are
likely to have sharp surprise Coach
Noble has rounded the men up In short
order and they are in for the game Of
their lives when Pomona meets Occi-

conadon still Justice

The board of supervisors this morn
ing again postponed for two weeks the
settlement of the Pasadena justceship
mix-up. When the board was on the
verge of granting Justice Congdon per-
mission to recall his resignation the
interesting little communication Of Po-
lice Judge Wood was interjected into
the proceedings. 1t was decided. there
fore, to delay the matter again. Mean
while Justice Congdon is on his way
to Winnemucca, New, to look after
the mining interests of some of his
clients and has left his justice busl-
ness in the hands of his colleague,
Justice Klamroth. He insists that he
withdrew his resignation with the sole
hope of reconciling the two factions
which were fighting over the choice of
his successor and that personally he
does not care one whit whether he be
allowed to remain justice or not.
Council Business
Auditor Kernaghan made his appear
ance before the city council today with
the report that he had held up the
claim of Charles Mushrush for $1S for
certain sewer work and grading on
the ground that the land on which the
work was done is not city property.
The property seems to have been given
revert to the original owner if not used
to that end. AS it has never been so
used the auditor claims that it has
already reverted and that Mushrush
could not collect from the city for
work by which the property was bene-
fitted. The council agreed and Mush-
rush will collect from the original
owner of the land. Today's session of
the council was a lengthy one and
dealt chiefly with street improvements.
One of the most important matters of
this kind to come up was the grading
curbing and guttering of Broadway,
between Holly and Walnut streets and
the ordering of a sidewalk on the east
side of the same.
Politicians Surprised
Sheriff White has appointed j. II.
Chambers of this city deputy sheriff
to succeed the late John r. Slater and
the local politicians are not certain
whether they like it or not 1t is said
that when Sheriff White was in the
city few days ago some of the know
ing ones approached him in the in
terests of Sam Wallis and were not
turned away without encouragement,
and that the announcement of Cham
hers appointment was not expected
by them. There are others who say
that the appointment of man who
has not been active in politics was a
far sighted step and will make votes
for the sheriff should he have politi-
cal dreams for the future. Chambers
Is a conductor on the Pacific Electric
and is capable and popular among
those who know him.

FAST MAIL TRAIN.

After January !, 1906, the Harri-
man lines will have inaugurated fast
through mail train from Chicago to
the coast, over the Chicago & North
western, Union and Southern Pacific
roads. The new train, as at present
intended, will be a continuation of
Union Pacific No. 9, which reaches
Ogden at 3 p. m. 1t will be made up
of FIVE regular mail cars, with a work
ing force of four men in each car,
and in addition. will carry TWO sealed
cars containing through mail to the
coast, as we'll as trans-Pacife mail
The point is to relieve the passenger
trains of the heavy mail shipments,
which are now burdening them.
This new arrangement is said to
have been arrived at through recent
meeting in Chicago of A. H. Stephen,
superintendent Of the Eighth division
Of the railway mail service with juris-
diction from Ogden 70 Saa Francisco,
Lovelock tribune. (Lovelock, Nev.) 1898-1912, 1905-12-01

the fowl have been shipped from here,
At the low price of 223 cts. this
would be $3.50 a ton or 5000 for the
two ton. And it is a conservative es-
innate to say that at least SlOO more
has been sold that did not go through
the express Office. These fowl have
been raised mostly in small docks, SO
that this $1,000 is pretty well divided
up among the ranchers of the valley.
1t is hard earned money, but it all
goes to swell the income of the ranch
ers. One of the most difficult birds
to raise is a turkey. Chickens are
much easier. but the returns do not
amount to SO much, though the net
profit may be more.
So here's to the Thanksgiving bird.
May its numbers increase from year
to year and the fame of the Big
Meadows turkey spread from coast to
coast and pole to pole.

THANKSGIVING BIRDS
SHIPPED FROM HERE
Two Ton Sent By Express from
lOveIock This Month.
turkeys Grow Well on the Big Meaa.
ows and Bring Many dollars to
The L0veIock Ranchers.

The Thanksgiving Bird" which a.
dorned many a table in Nevada, Cal
ifornia and States further distant on
yesterday, acquired its massive form,
its monstrous drum stick" and more
delicate white meat" by chasing
grashoppers in the renowned alfalfa
fields of the Big Meadows.
Now don't get offended, ye of deli
cate taste, for while the turkeys were
fatteDed for the slaughter by feeding
on more substantial grains, and solids,
yet the fact remains that their grow
tn and size was made chiefly while
chasing grasshoppers through the
fields. And after you have tasted of
the luscious tender meat, can you
deny that they were par excellence?
As we stepped into the Wells Far
20 Express Office Monday night We
were amazed at the stacks of Turkeys
being labled and prepared for ship
ment. Turkeys dressed and undress-
ed, boxed and sacked, tabled and un-
labled. we're piled on every hand.
Our amazement was still greater
when we were told that this was but
q small part of what were sent out
that night. A wagon load had already
been taken to the depot, and the ship
ments that night would amount to
nearly thousand pounds. All of this
month they had been sending out from
one to FIVE hundred pounds of turkeys
per day. The most of these we're
sent to the Big towns and mining
camps of Sh,s State and California
The Nevada Meat Co. of Reno had an
agent here some two weeks buying up
a supply. Workmen on the ranches
and in the Valley were buying them
up to send to their folks at home and
to other dear ones"
The Turkeys raised here like other
products of the Valley,-are first class.
Some have weighed as high as % to
30 pounds dressed, the average run
ming from IL to Is pounds. They have
sold at from 221 to 80 cts pound.
From the records of the Express
Office it is estimated that two tons of
