While he was holding a court in one
of the northern counties he was
much annoyed by the coughing of
the spectators in the courtroom.
He referred to it again and again,
with increasing asnerity, and finally
directed the sheriff to remove from
the courtroom the next man who
coughed. This had marvellous eff
feet in stilling the audience.
That evening a stranger afflicted
by an incessant cough appeared at

History In Tapestry.

The "Bayeux tapestry" called
Bayeux from the place where it is
preserved, is pictorial history on
canvas, more minute in some par
ticulars than written history, of the
invasion and conquest Of England by
the Normans in 1866. Tradition
says it is the work of Matilda, wife
of William the Conqueror, and the
ladies of her court and that it was
presented by the queen to the Ca
thedral of Bayeux as a token of her
appreciation of the services rendered
to her husband by its bishop, Qdo,
at the battle of Hastings. The
tapestry is a web of canvas or linen
cloth PA feet long by 20 inches
wide. There are on it 1912 figures,
only three of which are those of wo-
men.

Corniahmen and Tails.

Natives of Deyonshire, England,
in past centuries used to say that
Cornishmen all had tails, asserting
that it was sign of the divine dis
approval of their infamy in cutting
off the tail OF Thomas a Becket's
horse. a sixteenth century writer
says: 80 hath England in all other
lands a perpetual infamy of tayles
by theye wrytten legendes of Ives,
yet can they not well tell where to-
bestowe them truly. An English
man now cannot trayayle in another
land by way of marchandyse or any
other honest occupyinge, but it is
most contumeliously thrown in his
tethe that all Englishmen have
tayles."

to be undertaken will be in the line of

Governor VetOes Good Bill

At the request of the Government
authorities, n bill was introduced in
the Legislature to curtail the sale of
liquor along the government canal
in Churchill, Washoe and Storey
counties and which successfully pass
ed both Houses was vetoed by Gov
ernor Sparks, he giving the excuse
that it was class legislation. The
action of the Governor has called
down on him the condemnation of
nearly every citizen of the counties
named
1t is now realized that as there is
nothing that can be done to curb the
inroads of the "hell holes' on the
canal, the people will simply have to
pay the fiddler and dance to the mus
ie. 1t is not at all unlikely that the
little towns along the canal will see a
repetition of the proceedings that were
carried on at Hazen about month
ago when the law abiding citizens
took a worthless character out of
Jail and meted out to him about what
he deserved.

Fire Company Talk.

There is some talk of adding to the
fire fighting force by getting another
engine and duplication of the avail
able hose. 1t is thought that by buy
ing another engine having gasoline
power that the fire fighting force of
the town will be sufficient to cope
with any fire that the town could
have, 1t is pointed out that bv get
ting the additional engine and hose
that the insurance would be so
materially reduced that the difference
would in a short while pay for it.
What has been said is simply talk, but
it has sufficient merit to deserve more
than passing notice. There is no
question but that if we had had the
extra engine it would have added
greatly to the safety of adjoining
property as well as relieve a great
deal of anxiety at the time and also in
the future. AS it was the people had
to work for all there was in it to save
the remaining property, barring few
who calmly watched the fire burn
with their hands in their pockets.
There is only one way of acquiring
funds to purchase whatever is [neces'
sary for fighting fire and that is for
the property holders to voluntarily
allow an extra assessment to be place
on thesr property, the money derived
therefrom to be used for the purpose
indicated In the mean time give the
present fire apparatus attention.

THE VALLEY
RAILROAD

The Virginia & Truckee Railroad
Company has corps of engineers in
the field looking for a suitable route
up through Carson Valley, for the
branch line from this city.
The surveying party is running
lines and aceumulating the necessary
data preliminary to actual building.
There are some three apparently feas-
ible routes and rights of way and it
will take some time to definitely de-
termine which is the most favorable.
Upon the completion of their inves-
tigation the company will take the
matter up and consider the advisable
ity of building the road.
This project would develop an i'm
mense territory. 1t would shorten the
time required to get freight into
Bodie and reduce the expense consid-
erably. 1t wonld make Carson City
the distributing point for a territory
many hundred miles in extent.
1t would stimulate agriculture and
mining in Antelope Valley and Alpine
county to a remarkable degree. The
road would touch timber and wood
lands also
1t hardly seems that there can be
any question as to the profit to accrue
to the company from the investment
and there certainly is none regarding
the benefits the country will derive
from it.-News.
