THE SAILOR HOME
FROM THE SEA

''kernel'' Tom Sullins returned
Wednesday from three weeks out
ing at Lake Tahoe. He is as brown as
a berry and says that he never felt
better in his life. The ''kernel'' re-
counts a thrilling experience which
befell him while on an excursion about
the lake.
1--WE were bounding over the broad
expanse of the sea at about twenty
six knots an hour, when suddenly the
wind veered from "Nor-east" To
"Sow-west" and | saw at once that
unless something was done all on
board would sink to watery grave.
Not for a moment losing my presence
of mind, | snatehed up seven life pre-
servers and putting them on | i'm
mediately felt a feeling OF security
which seemed to communicate itself
to my fellow passengers and they at
once became quiet" Thus what
might have been very serious panic
was narrowly averted by the quick
wit and presence of mind of ''Kerneln
Tom Sullins.

pah where he secured another auto

his companions wandering about the

from the fear of a lingering death on

BARBER SHOP FOR
STATE PENITENTIARY

\ very hodern and improved bar
Der shop has been installed at the
state penetentiary. Fortunately at
the last session of the L. :. Court a
couple of BARRIERS were sentenced to a
term behind the bars, so i'm the future
the prisoners will enjoy all the COM
forts and delights impaired by a
shave under skilled hands.
In the past ii was the custom to al
low the prisoners number of razors
and each man did his own shaving,
but the number of convicts have been
increasing so rapidly lately that it
was considered dangerous to allow so
many razors among them and hence
the establishment of the shop.
Warden Considine says that he will
allow the convict BARRIERS To shave
him, but il seems that in so doing he
will run the risk of being killed.
However, that is his business all we
are supposed to do is to wait and
watch for results.

RUNAWAY ACCIDENT
IN SMITH VALLEY

John o. Bannion of smith valley
was quite seriously injured i'll a run
away accident which befell him some
time Wednesday evening.
\ messenger arrived in Gardner
vile about o'clock yesterday morn
ing and DR.. Hickok was summoned to
the scene of the accident where he
found Mr. O'Bannion suffering great
ly as a result of his Injuries, but ne
serious consequences are expected, al
though the unfortunate man will be
out of commission for soma time.
Tee horse which the messenger rode
into town suffered considerably as a
result of the hard ride. He was un-
able to move for several hours.

TOO MUCH WATER
SAYS Mr.. METZ

Water may be scarce, but Peter
Metz says he is from Missouri and
they will have to show him. Peter
has always had a very marked aver
sion for the very necessary liquid and
it may be that his opinion is based
on this fact, but being cognizant of a
very thrilling experience which re-
Gently befell Mr.. Metz we are inclined
to believe that his views are based on
very different foundation and that
considering the circumstances his
Judgment is indeed pardonable.
1t seems that Peter, as is his wont
and, we might add, entirely his own
affair, imbibed little too freely from
the flowing bowl, and as a result felt
an overwhelming desire for sleep.
Finding an agreeable spot back OF
Starke's saloon whereon he might rest
his weary bones he drifted very soon
into the land of oblivion.
Lo and beholdl the reconsideration
of the world in general. Why could
not Peter have been left to enjoy his
rest undisturbed? But no. some one
had to irrigate about the same time
and very soon Peter was a living ex-
ample of the proverbial bread which
in the scriptures is cast upon the
waters, only he made a noise that,
in the opinion of the humble scribe,
seemed to indicate he was padding
his own canoe. At any rate, as may
have already been surmised, he got
wet. To be brought into such close
contact with water was not only
humiliating to Peter Metz, but dis
agreeable as well, and it is small
wonder that he believes this to be a
very wet season. He says in the flu
ture he intends to hunt up a brewery
when sleepy and then a leakage would
not be attended with such disastrous
results.

FORMER RESIDENT
DIES IN RENO

Henry Morrison, well known in this
valley and at one time interested in
the hotel business in Gardnerville,
died last Saturday afternoon in Reno
of Bright's disease, from which he has
been suffering for number of years.
He had been in san Francisco until
recently undergoing medical treat
ment which seemed to be of little
benefit to him. AT the time of his
demise he was forty-seyen years of
age and leaves a loving wife and one
son to mourn his loss
The funeral services were held Mon
day afternoon at the parlors of Per-
kins, Oliver and Gulling and were
strictly private. Rector Bellam of
the Sparks Episcopal Church ofliciat-
ed, assisted by the choir. The re-
mains were taken to Mountain View
cemetery for interment.

A FIRE BELL
IS NEEDED

The needs of Gardnerville are per-
haps many, but the one most apparent
is fire bell. "A stitch in time saves
nine" is an old adage and true one
and is nowhere better illustrated than
at a fire The stitch in this instance
is the turning in of the alarm quickly
and in such a manner as TO arouse the
fire company to prompt and decisive
action. The only way this can be ac-
complished is by the sharp and clear
sound of a fire bell The state of af-
fairs existing at our recent fire is still
fresh in the memories of the citizens
of this town. Although the engine
and hose cart were hurried to the
scene many thought that the streets
were about to be sprinkled and con
sequently but very little assistance
was proffered. Had there been a fire
bell no such an impression as this
could have arisen.
For some unaccountable reason this
matter has been entirely overlooked
although its urgency must be apparent
to all. However, in the light of what
occurred at the jail fire the Record
Courier feels that this town can hard
~ .afford ito further be without a
means OF arousing the people to ac-
tion in the event of fire and in this
we feel certain of the approval of the
majority of Gardnerville's property
holders. y petition will shortly be
circulated for the purpose of raising
money enough to defray the expense
incurred through the purchase of a
fire bell and it should meet with the
hearty cooperation of the business
men and every property holder in
this town.
Three herders in charge of a band
of sheep belonging to the Dangberg

passing on the Tahoe reserve near

PROPOSITION
TO WORK ORE

Two representatives of California
capital spent several days of the past
week in Gardnerville and while here
they made proposition to the direc-
tors of the Douglas Mining and Re-
duction company regarding the work
ing of the ore from the Winters
mine.
The great difficulty with which the
owners of the latter mine have had to
contend III the development of their
property has been to prevent the loss
of great deal of the value of every
ton of ore treated They have ex-
perimented with quartz mills, with
cyanide processes of different kinds
and with other methods known to the
science of mining, but thus far they
have hit upon no process that would
save the entire amount of precious
metals contained in the ore. In order
to place the mine OH a dividend pay
ing basis it is necessary to overcome
this difficulty.
The propositioa made by the gentle
man above mentioned promises to
encompass this feat and if accepted by
the owners Of the mine will probably
demonstrate at least that the Winters
really is mine and not a prospect.
The gentlemen, on behalf of the
capitalists they represent, propose to
inaugurate plan for working the ore
which they guarantee will save the
full value of all the ore worked In
return for what they accomplish they
ask a certain royalty to be extracted
from the value of the ore after it has
undergone their treatment.
The scheme appears feasible at first
glance, but the question arises is not
the royalty which they ask equal to
what is lost under the present method
of treating the ore? This is the quest
tion which the owners of the property
must solve before they can consider
the proposition which has been made
to them

J. Watson Disappears

J. Watson, who was reported by
this paper several weeks ago as being
mentally deranged, made his disap-
pearance from the Ritchford hotel
sometime Wednesday night and
up to this writing nothing has been
seen of him, although thorough
search in the near vicinity has been
made.
Mr.. Watson had been complaining
for the past week of severe pains in
his head and sepnt most of the time
in bed. Wednesday he appeared at
the dining room for his meals and
stated that he felt much better
His sudden disappearance has caus-
ed much anxiety on the part of his
friends who fear he is headed for the
Pine Nut mountains where he has
prospected a great many years. If
such be the case, he will probably per-
ish before help arrives as he was in
very feeble condition. The officers
will organize searching party today
and an attempt made to locate the un-
fortunate man.
