INSPECTING THE MINES.
Local Properties the Subject Of Close
Investigation.

YesterdayMr H. c. Couden o.
New York arrived in this city. HIS
business here is to investigate the
mines n which he has become in
terested and the smelter that has
been running for several weeks.
Mr.. Root, who has had the manag-
ment Of the property had the gentle
man about some of the "dlggins" and
further investigation will continue TO-
day.
Sometimes ago an experimental
smelter was erected across the rivec
where the first bullion produced in the
county in some time was turned out.
Something over a ton Of the product
was taken cut and marketed which
evidently gave satisfaction, as the
head Of the firm is here in person to
/ see what is doing and the possibilities
of the future.
One of the properties that attracts
the most attention is'rla cid Bismarck
where a fine ledge Of silver and lead
is in place There has been a great
deal of work done on this property with
the result that ore is in sight and in
more than the usual quantity. AS fol
values they must have been all thai
was desired as the people who have
headed the affair have continued witt
the work and are now here to loo!
over the ground, figuring on the cree
ton of smelter.
One of the great draw backs to in

comparatively little work done on an,

A HORRIBLE CRIME.
Headess Trunk Of Man Found on a
Doorstep.

Headiess Trunk Of Man Found on a
Doorstep.
SAN FRANCISCO, April Bone
of the most mysterious murders of re-
cent years occurred in this city som-
time this evening. About $50 O'Clock
a man was seen carrying neavy bun
die which he let down on the steps of
a doorway at the corner of Taylor and
Vallejo streets and walked away,
disappearing in Washington Square
Park.
Those who witnessed the act be-
came curios after a few minutes and
on making an investigation the bun
due proved to be the trunk of BODY
of young man about 16 years of age
The body was still warm and bleed
ing, and was minus the head and legs,
which had been hacked off by crude
instrument in the hands of some one
with little knowledge of anatomy.
There are number Of police AMI
detectives working on the case, scour-
ing the neighborhood where the body
was found, as it is believed the murder
was committed nearby, owing to the
fact Of the body being still warm when
discovered.
| The corpse is that of white lad
and wa swell nourished.
The officers have practically no clue
! TO work on.
SAN FRANCISCO, April 6.-The po-
lice today found the missing parts Of
the headless trunk that was left on
the doorstep at Taylor street yester-
day. The head and missing limbs
were found in the bay by a fisherman
and when placed beside the trunk
were found to me the missing parts
The crime so far has baffled the pc
lice and little or no clue is tracabls
The fact that the man disappeared
and little attention was paid to him
has left the police in the dark. NJ
one is reported missing and the dc,
tectiye have yet to locat ethe p1ac+
Whre the Grim was committed.

A UNIVERSITY NECESSITY
A Professor of Draw Poker Should
be Provided for at Once.

be Provided for at Once.
II the State University continues
to remain in Reno the necessity d
establishing Chair to give the stun
ents a complete course in practical
draw poker commends itself to every
body.
Recently a student of that insfl-
tuition fell into the hands of Reno
poker expert and staked S14 ON three
aces, considering the same good
proposition. His opponant, who he'n
three deuces took the pot by persuade
ing the student that twoes were OF
higher potential than ones and there
by accomplished the separation be-
tween the young man and his roll.
Had the latter been properly taught
IN the intricacies of the national game
he would have been many dollars to
the good.
It seems a shame to turn young men
loose upon the world without giving
them sCme practical education.
One even might go as far as to
teach top and bottom faro dealing
TO the students who expect to remain
in Washoe County. A young man
proficient in Latin and Greek can only
hope to wait years before he gets a
Job as teacher Of the dead languages
while if he could deal faro properly
he could hold down job at Sc or IS
per day while he was waiting for Il
Greek professorship, to come his way
A two years course in draw poker
would enable a young man to face
the graver and more practical prob
lens Of life and hold his own in the
hurry hurley of naughty world.
OF course people who lead the
quiet life in Carson or who like the
editor of the Appeal follow pastoral
persuits, don't have to know much
about such games, and when the
writer drops into Reno for a day he
mixes up with anybody there and can
only recall the wise observation Of
Horace the late Latin poet who re-
marked many centuries ago.
"Vacuous viator coram In latrona
cantabit, which would be roughly
translated by Mayor Turretin of Rene
as meaning, "The strapped traveller
sings in the present of robbers
We dislike to be compelled to lus
in Latin but in writing of Univers
ity town where the very atmosphere
is. redolent of the classics one cal
0scarcely avoid it and do justice to his
feelings
The University Board of Regents
should, if the institution remains in
Reno, advertize for a poker exper'
to take the NEEDED Professorship and
life the curriculum to a higher sphere
Of usefulness in the shape of practi
cal education. Students should be
given the weapons to enable them
to successfully fight the battles q
life.
1t is rumored that Adolph Shan'

to wafer-Iike flakes. This flakeiness is. however, the proper condition or pas try. Pies as a rule are better adapted to a winter than summer diet, be- cause of the butter, which makes them too rich for warm weather fare. Fruit pies, however, are good at all seasons, and there are few things more attractive than huckleberry and other fruit pies even in the hottest dog days. There are also many good cold meats pies which are welcome at picntcs. When preparing a chicken or meat pie it is always better to add little baking powder to the regular rule for ordinary pie crust.
 Add one cup of butter to every two cups of flour (pastry fiOur.) Then chop together in d wooden bowl, with an ordinary old fashioned chopping knife, until the mixture is broken into small bits, the size of peas And half a cup
 of ice water. Mix with knife, then beat and turn and beat and turn until the whole is smooth, but full of light ness. This poundingg and turnin is better if done upon a marble board in q cool stOreroom or cellar. Never touch the patsry with spoon or the hand, but with knife; then put it where it will become ice cold and hard before rolling it out.
 There are several variations to this rule which can do no harm. If baking powder is wanted, add a teaspoonful to this amount of flour and butter.- New York Tribune.

HOW SOME PLANTS HIDE.

G. G. PringIe for many years q fa- nous plant collector, especially in Mexico and the arid regions of the. United States, speaks of a native grass of Northern Mexico, Muhlenbergia Texana, as such a favorite with all grazing animals that it is usually exi- terminated or nearly so except, when growing under the protection of thorny shrubs, suaIly mesquits bushes.
 How many times have contended with the horrid mesquite bushes to gather an armful of this grass to carry joyfully to my hungry and jaded horses. In such cases the thorns, spines and perhaps bitter taste of the bushes not only protect the young growth and leaves of certain plants nutritious herbage.
 In arid regions especially similar in- stances of protection by throrn bushes are numerous. Again, some plants re- tire beneath the surface of the ground at the close of the growing season, es- pecially in regions subject to drougths or cold, remaining secure beneath the surface for months in the form of bulbs, tubers and roetstocks. At such times they are nearly sure to escape de- struction by animals. Examples are Solomon's seal. Dutchman's brooches, May apple, golden rod and artichoke.
 Not only the flowers of many species of plants as they project above the sur- face of the water are protected from most unwelcome insects but the whole plants as well. Mud turtles, certain fishes, water snails larvae of insects eat aquatic plants, but most other anil Inals are unable to reach them in such places. +.-
 Water plaintain, wild rice pond lilies, arrowhead, pickerel weed, pond weed, lizards tail, bulrush, burreed, cattail flag, water dock and many more of their associates root at the bottom with leaves floating on the surface or pro- jecting above. .::.-...
 Innumerable low forms, known as algae, are at home in lakes, ponds and streams, or on the surface of the water, while other kinds thrive in salt ir in | brackish water. These aquatics find protection below the surface or by ex- tendong above it, not only from numer- ous animals, but they have no 1competi- ton with others which can grow only on dry or moist soil.-Popular Monthly

The advantage in purchasing a Stein ertone pianoforte does not lie only in the simple fact that it contains every thing that is found in the most per feet pianofortes or in the standard makes, but it represents new era in pianoforte building and brings the pianoforte up to state of perfection hitherto not represented in all other first class pianos.

 One of the claimants to the estate was the father, who years before had given his little daughter away and per- mitted her to become a resident among strangers in a foreign land. The prop erty consists of lots and houses in the city of Topeka and is probably worth between ten and fifteen thousand dol lars.

ufactured Annually in New York
City. As a Commercial Cen
ter New York Leads
Them AL

1t is beyond dispute that New York
as a commercial city easily leads the
world. Its "twenty-StOried" buildings,
its "mile-long" bridges, rapid transit
subway, elevated railroads, magnifi-
cent hotels, costly monuments and
acres OF parks all contribute to re-
veal the limitless powers that there
exist, to satisfy the equally limitless
necessities OF the greatest city of the
greatest nation.
Broadway began as a cOwpath, and
it has built up and grown until today
it is one of the worlds greatest boule-
wards, and the most costly street in
the world, being more than twelNy
mics in length.
Every continent pours it's crowds of
pleasure seekers into it, and the one
looks forward to is a visit to New
York It's bank clearings exceed
those of London by nearly so per cent.
and that the manufacturers of the
United States exceed in volume those
of any other country, New York has
naturally become the greatest mart
for buying and selling merchandise
the world over. In the manufacture
of clothing alone, 1t has over 400
wholesale manufacturers whose net
sales aggregate more than $150,000,-
900, and the most remarkable fact is
that McIlwaine. Knight & Co, 678
Broadway, is the only Gentle firm
in the business, and whose success
and growth in business has been phe-
nomenal. Though only few years
old. they have gained an enviable
reputation in the trade. and today
their army of statesmen cover nearly
every State in the Union selling their
| famous "Honest-as-a-Dollar" line of
clothing, which is considered by those
| in position to know to be the strongest
medium priced lines in the market.
