oN THE TAReET RANGE.

A pary of normal cadets accompa- nied by Capt. F. M. Irish, made a trip to the target range across the river yesterday morning, and spent part of the forenoon shooting. The week be- fore, most oi the day was spent with teams and scrapers in putting the range in good shape and it is now thoroughly cleared off and in better condition than ever before. It is the intention of Capt Irish to devote considerable of the spare time of the company to the range this winter, and from the scores that have already been made, there is req son to believe that the cadet compa- ny will make a good showing by the spring.

MR. BRAND HOME.
He Brings Very Liscouraging News
 From Salton Sea.

MT. Chas. J. Brand who is spending some time here in the interests of the date harvest, returned yesterday morn ing from Yuma and Mecca Cal, where he has been on an official visit to oth- CT government date orchards Speak ing of the Salton Sea disaster. MT Brand says that it is all, and even worse than press dispatches have re- ported. He was at the Ecte that went out last Monday and at that time there was much anxiety about it. It finally went out entirely Thursday af- ternOon. He says that it is the opin- ion of those in charge that the work has been delayed many months, and it is a question whether or not the river will ever again be confined to it's chan mel below the break. Property owners near the SaltOn Sea are naturally very discouraged over the prospect, more so for the reason that up to a few days ago the outlook was brighter than it had been in a long time. The work will now have to be commenced over again which of course, means a tremendous expense. The government is coming in for it's share of trouble in the mat ter The date orchard at Mecca is in. danger and MT Brand says that unless the flow into the sea is stopped this winter the orchard will have to be moved next spring. As the trees in it are now bearing it means a delay to the progress of the date industry in that orchard and much expense. if it becomes necessary to make a change in location.

Three Learned Men

Two professors were one time the
guests Of college chum at hunting
camp in the woods. When they entered
the camp their attention was attracted
to the unusual position of the stove,
which was set on posts about four feet
high. One of the professors began to
comment upon the knowledge woodsmen
gain by observation.
-" Now, - said he, "this man has dis
covered that the heat radiating from
the stove strikes the roof, and the cir
culation is so quickcned that the camp
is warmed in much less time than would
be required if the stove were in it's reg
ular place on the foor.'
The other professor was Of the opin-
ion that the stove was elevated to be
above the window in order that cool and
pure air could be had at night.
The host, being more practical, con-
tended that the stove was elevated in
order that a good supply of green wood
could be placed beneath it to dry.
After considerable argument each
placed a dollar bill upon the table, and
it was agreed that the one whose opin.
ion was nearest the guides reason for
elevating the stove should take the pool
The guide was called and asked why
the stove was placed in such an unusual
position.
"Wen,'' said he, "when T brought
the stove up the river lost most Of the
stovepipe overheard, and had to set the
stove up there so as to have the pipe
reach thru the roof'' :

Of the lecture the speaker related a
story of a man who drank intoxl-
eating liquors to such an extent that at
one time when he went to extinguish
a lighted candle, his breath was so full
of alcohol fumes that when it came
into contact with the burning candle
it ignited and burned the man to death
This story impressed many in the
udience and especially an old Irish
ian who was noted as being very
lard drinker :.
