HEALANl
POINTERS
How the Blues Are
Stacking Up for
Saturday.

Hard work was again the order of
the afternoon by the lighthouses yes
terday and both Myrtles and Healanis
had all their representatives out.
Today will see the last strenuous
practice participated in and every boat
will do the course good and hard. To-
morrow afternoon will see the crews
practising starts.
The Myrtle freshmen made a very
good impression by their snappy work
yesterday They pulled better together
then the have ever before. The seniors
and juniors also. worked out in taking
style.
The Healani juniors keep on improv-
ing, but their raggedness still worries
Coach Damon.
Last night the Myrtle seniors were
5 to favorites over their opponents,
and there seems to be plenty of Myrtle
money in sight at similar odds respect
ing the other crews. Hea1ani support
ers are holding out for 80 to 20 against
their senior combination.
The Healanis have been cramped for
boats and with three crews working
every afternoon the insufficiency of
practice craft can not but have affect
ed the training of the Blues.
The Healani seniors as a whole have
done fairly good work. There are two
new men in the boat-Robinson, No.
Wilson, No. 4, one of last years fresh
men.
It is a pretty even lot taken alto
gether, with the exception of Allen,
who tips the beam at 1872 pounds and is
much heavier than the rest of the crew,
which averages 16S pounds.
The Healani juniors are practically
last years freshmen barring E. Desha.
who takes Wilson's place, the latter
having graduated to the senior boat.
Hatch at No has had very little
time to train and has had to do a lot
cf reducing in a limited time. This, as
Is but natural. has weakened him to a
certain extent.
Armstrong at No. looks to be a
trifie overturned.
The remainder of the boat are APP
as strong as plantation mules
and it doesn't seem as if too much
work could be put into them.
The Healanl freshmen are very fresh, |
the boat being made up of mere boys. |
They are an enthusiastic sextette, |
however, have worked commercially |

The others of the freshman crew are

In figuring up training form it must

To the Foreman and members of the Grand jury
of Lyon County Nevada:
Gentlemen:-We the committee appointed to
investigate the books of School Trustees, school
leave to submit the following:
We find the books and buildings in general, to
be in fair condition. but would recommend that
in some districts the books should be kept i'll
more systematic manner. Regarding the build
ings, fences, etc we find they are i'll need of re-
pair and suggest that the Trustees i'll the several
districts make the necessary repairs. We would
especially recommend that the primary room III
School District No. be enlarged, suggested
by the Trustees.
We also find that the teachers are allowed
longer vacations, under salary than allowed by
law, and draw their salary for same. We recon-
mend that this practice be discontinued.
We find the books of the township officials to
be in good shape so far as we investigated.
We find a tendency on the part of trustees of
most of the districts to extravaganza in buying
maps globes, etc of which very little use is
made and would recommend that they use more
economy in this respect.
We recommend that all business transacted by
the trustees of the several districts be transacted
respectively at the offices of the Clerks of the
districts in formal and business-like manner.

THE MASON VALLEY PROPOSITION.

On the first page of this issue
will be found the proposition that
the people of this valley have
made to Miller & Lux for a basis
of settlement of the water suit
now in the courts. This plan diff
fers some from the plan of the
Smith Valley people which Miller
& Lux have agreed to settle on,
and there may be parts of it
which Miller & Lux will not ac-
cept. However, it is the first
proposition the Mason Valley peo-
pie have formulated, and if it is
not satisfactory to all amendments
can possibly be made to it which
will lead to the desired result. The
people are beginning to see that
almost any kind of a settlement
will be preferable to the endless
chain of litigation which will re-
suit from from keeping the matter
in the courts. The government
now stands ready to appropriate
$4,000 for temporary irrigation
work on the Walker River, and
the work contemplated, it is esti-
mated, will give water enough the
year around for all the land now
under cultivation in this and
Smith Valley. This would be
pretty good starter for large rec
lamation system, and the water
users of the Walker should go
more than half way, strain point
or two, to bring about such a con-
dition. If the issue is allowed to
lag for a season or more the $500
900 appropriated may then not be
available. Therefore the people
can settle their differences none to
soon. Let us secure that 100000,
for the beginning of reclamation
system means that it will eventu-
ally be carried to a completion of
a great system which will put
every acre of our two fertile val
lies under water

WILL ASK FOR BEE LEGISLATION.

The beemen and honey pro-
ducers of Mason Valley, and Ne
vada in general, are becoming.
alarmed over the fact that the mi
gratory beemen of California,
recognizing that Nevada honey is
attracting the attention of the
world, are bringing their diseased
bees to this State to the detriment
of our people who have lived here
for years, are permanently located,
and have bees enough to gather
all the nectar the alfalfa fields now
produce. Pasture and range for
bees, as we'll as for sheep and cat
tie, can be overstocked, and our
beemen consider it an imposition
on those here to stay to be driven
out of business by interlopers and
squatters. To guard against
further imposition the Nevada
beemen propose to ask the Legis-
lature to pass a quarantine law
for bees. A representative honey
producer of this valley has inter
viewed a number of the legisla-
tors on this matter and they all
agree that the demands of the
Nevada beemen are but just and
that something should be done for
their relief.

Jail at the town of Yerington, and find the coun-
ty court house in good condition. We find how
ever that the county Jail is unsafe as is also the
branch county Jail, at Yerngton, because of the
fact that the bars in the windows so far apart
that aid may be easily rendered to persons con-
fined i'll said jails by those on the outside We
would, therefore, recommend that the Board of
County Comm ssioners be requested to procure
screens the same as used at the Washoe coun-
ty jail, and have the said screens placed over the
windows of said jails at once. We find that the
Jail at Yerington is provided with but one bed for

that another bed be procured at for said jail

MEDICAL STUDENT
FROM GEORGETOWN UNIVERSE:
TY WAS THE STRANGER H
WHO KILLED HIMSELF.
(By PnbIlshers, Preas.l

BOSTON, Mass, Feb, 1G.-The
enigma of the identity of the young
man who was found dead Tuesday in.
his apartments at the Hotel Touraine,
presumably after taking his own life,
has been solved, and 1t is known that
the dead man is Hiram McCollom, OF
Lockport, n. y, who was president
OF the third year medical class at
Georgetown University, Washington,
D. c., and a clerk at the War Depart
ment. Although the young man had
cleverly obliterated every visible
mark on his belongings, which might
betray his identity, the police on ex-
amining his shoes discovered a secret
trade mark and symbols showing
his shoes were made by a Brockton,
Mass, firm. From this clue his iden-
tity was established No motive is
known for the act.
