ROLL OF HONOR FOR THE
PARADISE PUBLIC SCHOOL

The Silver State is in receipt of the
tekes pleasure in giving it a place.
Principal Webb has the right idea Of
conducting a school. While the publ
cation of the honor roll perhaps has not
much value In itself, 1t serves to show
what a school is doing and 1t has q
tendancy to make pupils more eager to
get on the roll than perhaps they would
be did they not know that the successful
ones names would be published. Pride
allowed to go on in school and never
have anything said about how he or she
IS getting aong they soon become care
ess The publication OF the names of

pupil more careful. The following lis

LANDAR COUNTY
HAS RICH
STRIKE
Wonderful Vein in Peterson
Claims at Cold Park-WiII
60 Away up in the Thousands

One of the richest strikes ever made
in this section of the country, If not in
the State, was made last week in one
of the Peterson claims at Gold Park by
Antoine Barago and his two partners,
who have a lease on the property, says
the Reveilie. At a depth of 20 feet they
have twelve inches of ore, four inches
of this on the foot wall being completely
covered with gold, the ore averag ng
over 10000 per ton. The boys took out
SO pounds of this ore for shipment.
which will net them a tidy sum. There
was considerable excitement In Austin
over the find and several persons struck
out for the Park Sunday to try and OBJ
tain lease on the ground near by.

A few days later bill for $3.50 was

to put them on and is doing a 15-days
sentence at Winnemucca's st. Francis,

but established the water and sewer age systems of many important towns, not only in Great Britain, but in other countries. He was the practical au- thor Of the first bill ever passed by Parliament authorizing the compul- sorry purchase of a private water plant by public authority. One of the great est monuments of Mir. Mansergh's en- gineering genius is the great Elan Valley water system for Birmingham. He planned and created the whole sewerage system of Melbourne, said to be the largest contract of the kind ever undertaken, and did almost equally important work in two cities as widsly apart as Columbo in Cey- lon, and Budapest. AS chairman of the Engineering Standards Commit tee, he occupied a position of pecul- far influence and authority in his profession.

The solicitor kept him waiting, and their interview was prolonged. When he left he had very little time in which to get the terminus. He found himself .endeavoring to accelerate the pace of the cab horse by the exercise of his will power; this was the kind of fool thing that he was always doing. Then with rare glimpse of sanity he called up through the trap and asked the man to drive faster.
 He observed with great satisfaction and some surprise that he had done the practical thing. He felt in his pocket and Sound a small object wrapped in white paper and secured with red wax; yes; he had not forgotten the tooth brush. On arrival he had still four minutes to spare. This, so he told him- self, was evidently his good day.
 He directed the porter as to his lug gage. There was still time to take his ticket. miscount the change, accuse the booking clerk and apologize for his own error. But there was no time sur plus. As he rushed up the platform he was entoined to hurry. The porter held open the door os the empty smoking compartment in which his bag was already placed and was sorry that he could not get corridor carriage. It did not matter: this fine fellow had caught his train. He suddenly re- menbered that he had forgotten the telegram, but even that did not matter very much. He would be able fo send if in a aounIo nF y,orrp or co oF stba fysF stop. He had telegraph forms in his bag, and even felt kind of satisfaction that one of these would now be useful.
 But before attending to telegrams or to anything else his pipe which was just out. needed to be refilled. He had suffered long period of deprivation at his solicitors. He pulled out his pouch and found in 1t as much fine dust as would half fill an ordinary saltspoon. Yes tobacco had been one of the things that he had to buy, and, though he would not have admitted 1t, it was | tobacco wkicil had made him forget it. Dreamer though he was. he realized this was the moment for prompt action. He heard the fusiilade of slamning doors and knew that in few seconds the train would be off.
 He thrust his head out of the window howled for porter and found one Handing the man a shilling, he said; Ounce of any kind of baccy Run as hard as you can"

NOT ALL SERENE.

All is not serene in German nanufdc- turing circles. One of the leading or gans of the German manufacturing ir1- dustries. speaking of the new German tariff law. which will go into effect March i. 1906, has the following to say about trade relations with this coun- try; It Is only ten months until our new tariff law will go into effect and we do not yet know what our trade relations with the United States will be. Our present commercial conVen- tion with that country will have to cease on March 1, 1906, when our ne" treaties with other countries become onerative. What then? Will our new general tariff be applied to importa- +ioosg from the United States, and with what measure will the later re- tort?, Shall one" risk taking orders which are to be filled after March l next? 1n spite of the extreme nigh +ar,ff of the United States and the vex- ations of its customs requirements our exports thereto have again consid- erably increased in the past year Next to Great Britain and Austria, T4,ngary, the United States is our best customer, Should we jeopardize our relations with such customer ioy pre- cipitous decision?
 The writer argues that victory in q tariff war is only a slight degree less disastrous than defeat; eager com uetitors rush in to occupy the field' and when the war is ended they have gained an advantage from which they cannot easily be dislodged. He attrib-
 1tes the threats of tariff reprisals against the United States to the de- sire of the Agrarians to exclude Amer ican grain from Germany, and claims that it is part of the programme to enforce a like discrimination against Argentina products. "Our tariff war with Canada" he says, ought to open the dullest eyes. Last year our ex- ports thereto werS but $5,497 ,S00' against s9,2s4,4eO in 1903. Even this strongly diminished export has been attained by great sacrifices made by our export firms, to prevent the utter loss of business connection with Can- ada. But how long must this be main- tainsd? <. Many firms to-day reckon upon the loss of their entire trade with Canada"

MANY WORTHY CAUSES.

The generous giver wont have to stop giving for want Of something to give to. Since Mir. Carnegie has given $1O,OOO- GOO for superannuated professors, the school teachers purpose to ask him to give a similar fund for those of their number who pass the dead line. Now that MT. Rockefeller has given s1O'OOO,- GOO for general educational purposes, the veteran fremen of New England will ask him to give $8,OOO,OOO to take care of the superannuated ffremen.

JAMES MANSERGR.
Canada

One of the worlds great workers died the other day in England. Mr.. James Mansergh was one of the worlds leading authorities upon ques- tions of water supply and sewage dis posal. As boy he was a contempo- rary scholar with the late Professor Fawcett, England's blind postmaster general, at Queenwood College. After serving long apprenticeship with a firm of prominent civil engineers, he was sent to Brazil, where he built 200 miles of the first railroad to connect Rio ,Janeiro with the interior, This was, mostly, through virgln forest. Re- turning to England, he laid out his first sewage farm, the earliest experi- ment of this sort i'll the country. Then he went to London, to undertake a vast sewerage contract at West Ham.
 This nearly wrecked him financially,

THE sMClKER

He was, and had been for many years "a persistent smoker Of tobacco. He smoked to excess. He smoked for fifteen hours out of every twenty-four. It had long ceased to be any positive pleasure to him, but he had reached the point when abstinence from tobacco for any period of one hour or upward becomes very positive agony unless he happened to be asleep. Excessive smoking leaves infallible marks on the mind and moral character. This man was vague and va ,illating, his memory was untrustworthy, his temper was ir- ritable. He had lost the ability to set tie down to work ct 10 o'clock sharp, and when he did work he had ceased to be able to concentrate himself upon it. His nerves were in disorder. He was 8 poisened and narcotized wreck, and he knew it.
 Also he had to catch the north ex- press; but I will not pretend that this could in any way be traced to his self indulgence. Yet it was due to tobac- co that though he had several little things to do before he caught the north express he could not remember themI all at once. First one thing and then another would surge out of his abysmal vagueness into the clear light of con- sciousness. At one moment he would recall that he wished to buy new toothbrush. Then the toothbrush would fade away and he would remem- Der nothing but the exact hour of his important appointment with the so- licitor in Lincoln's Inn Fields. Then the appointment in it's turn grew dim, and he remembered telegram that he had to send or some of the ether things that he had to buy. He might, of course. rave made a list of the differ ent things to be done. but this would have involved enough to face the minor duties of life, and tobacco had long since sucked ali this out of him. He was quite without method. He simply resigned himself to q kind of dull de- spair. He was bound to forget some- thing or other. It was written, and it was useless for him to fght against 1t.
