Government Contract on Tahoe.
Sixty men started work on the con-
struction Of the big government dam

weeks ago, and is for the purpose Of
reserving the water in the Lake for
the irrigation project in the State of
Nevada. The dam, according to the
contract must be completed in six
months. Contractor Matte will have
to excavate 10000 yards OF gravel AMI
dirt, and should he find at the depth
of IA feet a poor foundation he will
have to handle even more than the
specified amount Of earth. In buili-

FOUND GUILTY.
Mrs. Mckenna Faints on Receipt Of
the Jury's Verdict.

The third trial resulted in a con
viction of Mrs. McKenna of Mopia,
en- the charge of selling whiskey to
Indians. The cjse has proven one of
the most interesting and hard fought
in the entire session of the u. s.
Court during the session. She was
held on three charges and the jury
on the first two rendered verdict Of
not guilty, which led many to believe
that she would go free on the Thrill
and final count.
The evidence was all in on Thursday
and the case went to the Jury in the
afternoon No agreement could be
reached and the jury was locked up
for the night. Yesterday morning the
foreman of the jury sent for Judge
Hawley and stated that the jury
could not agree and wished to hear
the evidence of the Indian witness,
who had testified against the defend
ant.
The testimony was gone over again
and after being out short time a
verdict was reached, AID that was
guilty

A SLIGHT MISUNDERSTANDING.
\ Mountaineer Took Holiness
Preacher For Manager of "A
Three Card Money Game"
Sanford EXpress.)


Sometime after the train had left
the little station in the Carolina noun
tains and was we'll under way, a small
man, dressed in shabby black, rose
from his seat in the Second-class car
and passed down the aisle, distributing
printed sheets of paper to the pas
sengers on either side.
The old mountaineer glanced at the
one handed to him, and the following,
printed in heavy type at the top
caught his eye:
Il have gone astray like a lost
sheep. Psalms, cexiX., 176.
TOO dern bad" he muttered, and
then, as he noted the progress of the
man through the train, he added:
"Ain't none O. these ere people got
amy humanity bout EN-? They're jes'
givin' i'm the cold shoulder; that's
what they're dom, dolgast EN-. bet
they're city folks, and that's what
makes 'em SO cold and heartless.
The mountaineer waited for the
man to make the length of the train
and come back, and then motioned
for him to take a seat beside him,
which the man unhesitatingly did.
IF there amt nobody else going to
help him / will" soliloquized the
mountaineer, as he took a fresh chew
of home made tobacco and picked up
a piece of paper, upon which he Ia
boriously wrote: Il turn my back on
no man. Count on me-"
The man in black smiled and nodded
pleasantly, and then wrote by way OF
reply: Together we will prepare for
the journey
"Whar to-" the mouIftaineer enquir-
ed by means of his pencil.
Heaven" was the written response
of the man in black.
The mountaineer was a big, muScu-
lar man, but he looked startled and
crowded up against the window side
of the seat. Crazy, 1 reckon" he
muttered to himself, but he finally
plucked up courage enough to write:
lie me see your ticket you must be
on the wrong train"
The man in black laughed a little
and then shook his head. He was
about to write again on the paper
when the mountaineer suddenly called
out: Say, kin anybody in this ere
car talk def and dumb with his
fingers?"

man in black. Aren't you deaf and
dumb"
Mel" CALCULATED the mountaineer

THE VALUE OF CHARCOAL.
Few People Know How Useful it is in
Preserving Health and Beauty.

Nearly everybody knows that char
coal is the safest and most efficient
disinfectant and purifier in nature
but few realize it's value when taken
into the human system for the same
cleansing purpose.
Charcoal is a remedy that the more
you take of it the better; it is not q
drug at all, but simply absorbs the
gases and impurities always present in
the stomach and intestines and carries
them out of the system.
Charcoal SweetenS the breath after
smoking, drinking or after eating on
ions and other odorous vegetables.
Charcoal effectually clears and i'm
proves the complexion, it whitens the
teeth and further acts as a natura
and eminently safe cathartic.
1t absorbs the injurious gases which
collect in the stomach and bowels
it disinfects the mouth and throat
from the poison of catarrh.
All druggists sell charcoal in one
form or another, but probably the
best charcoal and the most for the
money is in Stuart's Charcoa
