CATERPlLLARS AND LAW.
Actions Against the Insects In TIL e
Courts of France.

Courts of France.
In the year 1916 the owners Of the
vineyards of~St. Julian, Savoy, France,
solemnly took action in the law courts
against host of hungry caterpillars
which had played havoc with their
vines. This grave matter was referred
to arbitration and came in due course
before the bishop as ecclesiastical
judge.
Two lawyers were retained i'll the in
terest of the insect ravagers, letters adj l
monishing~ them to discontinue their
mischief We're issued, and a commits
sion sat to estimate the damage DONE
The judge held that no hasty decision
should be given, since it was possible
that the caterpillars had not acted ma
liciously. but had been sent as
scourfse.
AT the end Of year from the first
proceedings it was held that the farm
ers must submit to the infection and
pay all costs. After an interval of for
ty-two years another army of c;lterpil-
lars invaded the vineyards, another ac-
ton was brought, and it was decided
that they were only exercising their le-
gal rights, while the owners Wee adj
yised to provide piece Of land where
they might range at will.

OUTLOOK IS ROSY
Prominent Goldfeld Man Looks for
Great Things for New Year

81 believe that the passin~ of the
old year will mark the advent of the
best stock market in the history of the
camp. The time seems ripe for some
great things for the district, and l
firmly believe hat more actual work
will be done in the camp during the
spring than is predicted even by the
most sanguine of the mining oper-
ators.'
Thus spoke a well known Goldfell
man who has been here since the camp
was nothing more than a little cluster
of tents occupied by a few sturdy pros
pectors.
"While it will probably be true
he continued, "that the camp will con-
tain fewer strangers than last spring,
vastly more work will be lone upon
properties that have already been ex-
plotted to a greater or less extent.
The people who come in will be sub
~stantial mining men who will put their
money, energy and experience into the
actual development of mines, rather
than the adventurous fortune hunter
| believe that the mines of this camp
will look up in a III that will be
surprising even to the most enthus-
iastic. In the light of the past years
record, it can only be taken as an as
sured fact that Goldield will continue
to make the rapid strides that it has
in the ~past-only longer ones.
"The stock market never looked bet
ter. The passing of the holidays will
see a stimulation of the prices for all
the leading stocks. This condition will
be reflected from a renewed activity
in the mines and prospects about this
city. The future holds a great deal for
Goldfeld, and / believe that the next
three months will see more develop
ment work in hand than at any time
in the past

THOUSANDS OF PACKAGES
Express and Postoffce Buried Under
Avalanche of Christmas Gifts

Thousands of Christmas packages, both
incoming and outgoing have been
handled this week by the local branch
of Wells Fargo & Co. Each days train
during the week has brought from ten
to fifteen wagon loads of Christmas
parcels and the outgoing business has
amounted to almost that much. The
regular office force has been augmented
by a corps of special men who have as
sisted in the handling of the Christmas
business, which this year exceeds by
far the record of the preceding holi-
day season. The express men have
been working night and day delivering
and accepting packages for shipment.
At the postofice the working force
has been hurled in work, but they have
succeeded in handling the Christmas
business very expeditiously. During
the holiday season the business of the
postoffce increases many fold. One of
the busiest departments during the
week has been the registry office, as a
very large number Of the packages
passing through the mail go through
this division.
The rush of outgoing business both at
the postoffice and the express office
will be over tomorrow evening, but it
will be Tuesday before the tide of the
incoming packages subsidies. Then the
expressman and the postman will give
a long sigh of relief and thank his
lucky stars that Christmas comes but
once a year.
