Correspondence from the North End
of Eureka County.
Wednesday about half a foot Of snow
fell.
Sheriff W. III. Sweeney was in town
Wednesday.
Miles McKinnon returned from his
visit to Reno last Monday.
Master Granville Abbott left We'd
nesday to visit his mother in San

He left many friends here.
Sunday evening a nice. fat, dressed
porker of $50 pounds arrived here by
express en- route to another place. 1t
vas placed on a truck, but it being
quite dark, and no n paying any par
ticular attention to Mr.. Hog, some one
must have thought he had more use for
it than the express company, for when
the express agent came to wheel the
porker inside, 10 and behold he had
vanished. A thorough search failed to
locate him. There is no clue to the
thief.
Monday morning as the S. p. pas
senger was pulling out of Pail SADIE for
the Coast. q lady who had stepped of
the train was left on the platform of
the depot. She raced after the train,
and the fear of being left seems to have
deprived her of all reason. Soon she
started into the sagebrush on a run.
The conductor and a Pullman porter
saw her, aud while the train was stop
ping the porter rushed in pursuit Of the
lady. After a hard run he caught her,
but she was then so violently insane

Others coming to the rescue Of the
porter. a rope was procured and the
lady was dragged up on the grade by
main force and put into a car, when
the train wen on.

EPISCOPAL SERVICES IN EUREKA
Appropriate to Thanksgiving We're
Held by Rev. Lloyd Il. Thomas

Hello Dy heV.L iOyu ID. 1hOmas
Both morning and evening services
were held in St. James Episcopal
Church in Eureka last Sunday, Rev.
Lloyd b. Thomas Of Elko delivering
ermons appropriate to the approach
ing holiday, Thanksgiving. In his
morning discourse he briefly outlined
the significant meaning Of this day OF
National Importance. and gave his YER
sion Of what its observance should be
in a true spirit of Thanksgiving. He
said in part:
We call November Goth Thanksgiving
Day. How much, l wonder, is the idea
Of "giving" really associated with the
day? We approach this day. some OF
us with only a spirit of jollity. careless
of the real meaning of the day some
of us with q spirit of self.congratulation
upon the good things we have obtained
for ourselves; some of us with a spirit
of dissatisfaction which makes us un.
able to recognize what blessings we dc
enjoy. IL is no wonder when we ap-
preach this day. which is a day Of Ma.
tional importance, with such attitudes,
that the true thanksgiving" element
of the day is overlooked.
True thanksgiving proceeds from O
recognition of dependence, but depen'
dence upon a person who freely dis
penses benefits. We do not feel CRATE.
full to a person for giving us what il
due to us. we do not feel grateful to
our employer for paying u wages.
They are owed to as. Now the man
who feels hat the world somehow or
other owes him a living, has no place
in his life for the spirit of Thanksgiving
The man who feels that God must
grant him ~favors. sees no reason for
gratitude. The feeling of dependence
from which true Thanksgiving springs.
is the child's sense of dependence upon
its father. Mans real gratitude to
God arises from his recognition of the
FdtueTnOOu Oh 1Ou. IL Is DtCduse oOu
is our Father; because as a Father he
bestows gifts upon man and Nations
because we realize hat these ri is are
not a debt to us but are prompted by
the love Of God for us; because of these
things we give thanks. whole hearted.
earnest. inspiring. thanks to our Father.
With such a spirit of Thanksgiving in
our hearts we enter this season. l rec
ommend the reading of the Presi-
dents proclamation, that we may
gather some suggestions as to how this
spirit should be employed. 1t should
become the inner force which i'm
pells us to acts Of service. acts of
giving" to the needy. acts of positive
righteousness which shall build up a
temple upon our material prosperity,
acts which shall make that temple the
habitation Of the Spirit of God. Then
our Nation will become truly great,
and the world will have added cause
for Thanksgiving.

SCHOOL NOTES
Fischer Piano Selected for School
and 1t Is Expected Here
by January l

Three months of school have passed
and the fourth is we'll started. Each
month has shown some Improvement
over its predecessor. This should be n
of our best. Absence and Hardness for
any other cause than sickness should be
entirely eliminated from now on il
pupils are to be expected to keep up
with their classes. Enough work is
being assigned to keep everyone busy
all the time, and, if a pupil is out a day
that much is lost, for no pupil will be
kept back on account of those who are
not up in their class work.
The Senior Glass has perfected an
organization. Walter Burdick has been
chosen President, Stella Reid. Secre-
tary; Mary Morrison, Vice President.
and Richard Hooper, Treasurer. The
other members of the class rs it now
stands are Lizzie Morrison, James Nor
rison. Ben Regli. Elizabeth Rosevear,
and Ethel Kitchen. They are now con-
sidering the selection of a suitable class
pin.
The other classes have not formed an
organization, but will probably do so
later.
A State Teachers Institute will be
held in Reno one week. commencing
Monday, December II. Notice has
been received that we are expected to
attend, but as yet none of the teachers
have definitely decided to 20. Although
the trip is rather an expensive one from
here. professional spirit almost makes
it imperative that our schools be rep.
resented at this meeting of the leading
teachers from every part of the State.
The meeting Of the Literary Society
last Saturday night was the best Of the
three that have been held. Every part
of the programme was well rendered.
The Q meeting gives promise OF be-
ing still better. A full attendance at
each of these meetings indicates that
they are appreciated. and now that we
are well started. we trust no one will be
disappointed In the entertainments
given.
After a great deal of correspondence
and figuring with piano dealers it has
been decided to close a bargain with the
Detroit Music Company OF Detroit.
Michigan. for a Fischer piano for the
school. This piano has been tried by
an expert who is familiar with a great
many pianos and is pronounced an ex
cellent instrument. The terms offered
by this company are equal to those Of.
fered by other firms for lower grade in
struments. and they have asked to with.
draw their offer. but it Is hoped we shall
be able to deal with them upon the ex-
pected terms. The piano should be in
place by January /.

CITY NAME ON STAMPS
Each of the Presidential Post
Offices Gets an Individual
Supply in 1907

A special Washington dispatch says
postage stamps OF the issue Of 1907 put
on sale at the COCO Presidential post
offices will bear on their face the name
Of the State and city in which the post
Office is situated. The chief reason for
this innovation is said at the Post Office
Department to be the belief that IL will
help to do away with the big post office
robberies and make 1t much easier to
trace criminals.
Check on Small Offices
Another reason for the change is to
enable the Post Office Department Z
determine the mount of business done
by the different post Offices and prevent
padding through stamps sold at some
offices to residents who do business in
adjoining cities.
A great deal of complaint has been
made in the past on the ground that
certain Offices were doing q very much
greater volume Of business than they
we're credited with doing. and post
masters have had more or less trouble
in showing that they needed increased
facilities for handling their mails, as in
the opinion of the Congressional Com
mittees having the matter in charge the
receipts from the sale of stamps did not
warrant the increase.
This plan of engraving the names Of
the city of issue on postage stamps 10
not entirely new, as it has been follow.
ed in Mexico for years. In Liberia also
the names Of five of the principal towns
are engraved upon the stamps.

NEVADA SHEEP UNDER THE BAN
Animals Leaving State Must Be
Dipped Before Crossing
the Line

From the Salt Lake Herald Of Nov. 2S.
All sheep leaving the State Of Nevsds
must be dipped before crossing the line,
owing to the prevalence Of scabies In
that State. The action Of the United
States Department Of Agriculture deal
ing with the matter is explained in an
opca letter b George L. Hickox. local
ageut in charge. as follows:
Nevada Sheep in Bad Shape
"This office desires at this time to an.
nounce that in the State Of Nevada
especially in the northeastern portion
the reports of our inspectors show an
alarming prevalence of scabies among
the sheep; these reports indicate thai
in Elko County more than rs per CEN
of the sheep are infected. and a heavy
percentage of infection exists through
out the State. From this it is obvious
that all other sheep in Nevada are in 9
constant state of exposure; this condi.
ton Of affairs has made it necessary.
during the past three months, that ali
sheep moving from the State, for any
purpose whatever, be dipped before
crossing the line.
To Protect Utah
"The sheep in Utah and Idaho at the
present time are in q most satisfactory
condition, as regards the prevalence OF
scabies, there being almost none in
either State; therefore in conformity
with the regulations of the Secretary Of
Agriculture, for the protection Of the
sheep owners in general, and to the end
that the work already accomplished
shall not have been in vain, I deem il
necessary at this time to thai
all sheep coming from the Winter ranges
in Nevada into the above mentioned
States, in the Spring, must dip. nee al
exposed and twice il infected, under the
supervision of a Federal inspector, al
the State-line or not more than ten day.
before crossing said line.
"This announcement is made at this
time that fiockmasters who contemplate
ranging in Nevada may make theil
arrangements accordingly"
