The Great Gold State.

The Great Gold State.
 The Sunset of January contains th following tribute to the great state O Nevada:
 "Up to within the last year or so the state of Nevada, with it's endless miles of seeming waste, it's sagebrust plains, its fruitless mountains, ha: lain like forbidden bottom of a dry sea between the east and the Pacific Coast. But lately things have hap dened that begin to translate even Nevada into a mecca of travel and wealth hunting. As the klondike was found in Alaska, so Tonopah and Gold. field have been found in the one time "rotten borough" of the United States. Tonopah and Goldfield are like the Comstock-apparently unlimited fields of extraordinary rich mineral deposits. Gold is being taken from them as sif. yer was taken from the Consolidated Virginia. Men who, two or three years ago, owned nothing but their prospec tors kits-and frequently owed half of that to some one who had grub. staked" them-are rapidly working up to the bonanza level of the Fairs, Floods, O'Briens and Mackeys of 1877. 79. Men who have been quick of de. cision and shrewd of enterprise have followed the flood of fortune hunters and places and made money from their mercantile business mostly tents at first-or their mprovised hos. telries, or their hardware shops, or their smithies, or their restaurants in the townsites that take almost mirac ulous form about new mining camps. Nor is it to be presumed that these two great mining camps are all that will be found in Nevada. Pioneers and prospectors who have roamed over the state for the past quarter of century have reported extraordinary mineral indie tions in almost every section. They have found gold, silver, lead and
  quicksilver. They have found gy psum in quantities and quality to supply the entire west. They have recently stum- bled upon bed of salt as vast and pure as that of the Salton Sea in South ern California, where the flat cars are run out into the midst of the deposit and the salt is shoveled on like sand. They have found turquoise and other valuable stones. They have found far above other things of importance oases in the sand where water flows and trees flourish and the best sweet potatoes in the world are grown. Ne. vada, like Utah, stands in need, appar ently, only of the sort of energy and grit and ingenuity that have redeemed the valley of the Jordan of Utah. It Is place for the young man who has patience coupled with pluck, who has ambition coupled with his industry, who has more work in his muscles and residences in his will than he has gold in his pockets or patronizing pa pas and mammas at home to keep the stiffening out of his back bone."

An Albino Deer.

An albino deer is rare, very
rare, freak of nature. Nevertheless
a pure albino, with coat as white
as the drifting SHOWS, and eyes a
delicate pink, was killed not long
ago in the pine-clad mountains OF
southern Oregon. 1t is one of the
very few albino deer ever seen in
the mountains of the west. Old
hunters tell of seeing them, usual
ly separate from the main herds,
and at various times during the
early days; but they were always
too shy and discreet to be ap-
preached near enough for a good
shot.
This deer was killed on Canyon
creek, near West Fork, by G. w.
Donnell, a Grants Pass, Oregon,
sportsman. 1t was with four other
deer when first seen, and was at
first taken for young calf. Its
white coat made it a conspicuous
mark, and it is probably for this
reason that albino deer are usually
Stunned by the main herd.
Like the albino of the human
family, the albino deer is purely a
freak of nature. Aside from its
white coat and pink eyes. it is like
all other deer. Its fur seems softer
and more silky, but this may be
due to the natural inclination the
beholder has to rub the white coat.

Latin Alphabet.

Our alphabet is derived from the
primitive alphabet of Italy, which be-
longed to the Western Greek type
AS early probably as the ninth CEN
fury B. c. it was carried by the Chal-
cidians of Euboea, an island of
Greece. to Cumae, near Naples, Italy
1t became the parent of five local
Italic alphabets-the Oscar, the Etrus-
can, the Umbrian, the Faliscan and
the Latin. Owing to the political SUI
premacy of Rome the Latin ultimately
displaced the other national scripts
Of Italy, and became the alphabet of
the Roman empire, and afterwards of
Latin Christendom, thus spreading
over Western Europe, America and
Australia until it became the domi-
nant alphabet of the world.

Natural Cure for Rheumatism.

There is a wonderful grotto at Mon
summano, called the Grotto Giusti,
where the natural vapor is stated to
be an infallible cure for rheumatism.
Fifty years ago some workmen were
quarrying for lime when they discov-
cred the grotto. and its healing pow
ers were first made known some little
time later. In the lowest portion, APP
propriately named the Inferno" the
temperature is about 95 degrees Fair,
and here the victims from rheuma-
tism sit and perspire for an hour at a
time Such vapor bath is said to be
OIL much greater service than a Turk

E. B. Critchlow left yesterday af-
ternoon for Twin Falls after spend
ing day in Boise. He stated
while here that he had settled at
Twin Falls. AS attorney for the
company he has to give a large
part of his time to its business, and
he determined to make his home
there. A fine quarter section of
land near town was secured by him
in the first drawing and it is his in
tention to erect house there. He
may bring his family to the farm
later in the season. He will retain
his connection with the Salt Lake
firm but will open an Office in the
new Idaho town.
Mr.. Critchlow, when asked about
the plans of the company with re-
spect to the canal on the north
side of the Snake, said it would
proceed with the work very soon.
, He added survey was now being
made to determine whether a canal
could not be taken out on a higher
line than the one heretofore in
view.
The proposed change would in
volve rock cut three miles long
through a lava ridge, but it would
bring the canal out, it was thought,
at point from which could be r.
rigated large tract of very fine
land that could not otherwise be
watered. The proposed cut would
cost a quarter of million of dollars,
said Mr. Critchlow, but if enough
additional land to Justify the ex-
penditure could be reclaimed the
change would be made. = Boise

A TOUGH GERM
Remarkable Vitality Shown by Plague
BaciIli In Tests.


BaciIli In Tests.
Dr. NJ ]. Rosenau, director of the
hygienic laboratory of the United
States marine hospital service, has
been making experiments to find out
how tough an animal the plague bacil-
lus is, says the New York Press. He
finds him to be one of the toughest OF
the bacillus family. He says: 1T is
the experience of all observers that
the bacillus cannot live long outside
the body when dried at temperature
of 80 degrees centigrade or over, but at
a temperature lower than this and I'M
der 20 degrees centigrade it has been
kept alive so and rs days. The Ger
man plague commission found that the
organism always lost its power OF IN
lection when dried, within eight days,
in India, but after returning to Ger
many could De kept alive after drying
% days, at 10 degrees to IL degrees
cenngrade. My own experience indi-
Gates that the organisms, which dried
will die quickly if the temperature
at Is degrees it may live much longer.
Some bacill;. it is thought, are harder
than others, just as some persons are,
The doctor put some bacilli on little
squares OF crash and set some OF the
pieces of cloth to dry In dark corner
of the laboratory where the tempera-
ture ranged from 20 to q degrees CEN
tigrade. Other inoculated pieces OF
crash he placed in cool room with
temperature of about Is degrees cent?
grade. Still other pieces were placed
in a Photographic dark room where
the temperature was about % degrees
centigrade. The bacilli from the dill
ferent pieces of crash were tried every
once in a while to see how lively they
WERE After Is days the bacilli on the
pieces of crash in the dry dark corner
of the laboratory, where the tempera-
ture was high, ceased to grow, ana
were pronounced dead. But bacillus
from the cool chamber was strong
enough, after being there 4S days. to
kill a mouse inocuIated with 1t. Tho
mouse died in three days. A bacillus |
which stayed in the dark room Tor AZ
days killed mouse in two days. The |
same experiments were tried with pine
wood infected with plague bacilli, and |
it was found that they did not flourish |
as we'll as when placed on crash. The |
bacilli in the laboratory died after four
days, those in the cool chamber after |
eight days and those in the dark roo1o
after IL days.
