TO CALL THE MoCKrNG-
 HIRn A ULAyIER

nxMD A ~LANtEfns
 Harry stilwelf Edwards, delightful writer of Georgia. has suggested that an appropriate tribute the South could pay to Sidney Lanier would be to change the name of the mocking bird and call him ..LaLnier. In speaking of the suggestion, The Birmingham Age-Herald says editorially:
 "As the years go on the country sees more clearly that Sidney Lanier was one of it's greatest singers. His fame rises with the passing years, and read CTS now seek his pages in all Anglo Saxon countries. His gifts of song and his brave, bright spirit attuned to the beauties of nature are even more high ly appreciated In England today than they are in his own country. He is one Of the immortals. and a generation hence promises to link his name With that af Shelley and Keats.
 This tribute to Lanier is wholly within the power of the Southern peo- pie. and If our schools would adopt it and give 1t effect in their rooms it would soon come into general usa TO the schools Of Alabama The Age-Her- ald commends Mir. Edwardss sugges- tion. and they need not. hesitate at all in starting this tribute to the poets memory. The bird Is strictly Southern. He never seeks Northern climes, and the consent of other States Is not needed. No constitutional amendment forbids. and none Is wanted to promote the proposition.
 Of the suggestion The Atlanta Geor- gian says:
 Tt is unique suggestion. and one which is destined to receive serious attention throughout the south. It would indeed be a fitting tribute to the man who above all others came near est fn NnaHAazfun4 fhA VarfnH eff 0f song, the delicate sweetness of this most marvellous of, all birds There can be no possibility. that in the years to come any southern singer will so nearly correspond to those of the mockfng bird"

The Birmingham Age-Herald says:
 Mrs. Fairbanks, the wife of Vice President Fairbanks. is expected to accompany her husband on his visit to Birmingham. They will be the kuests of Colonel and Mrs T. c. Bush at Hill Crest"
 The visit of the Vice President and Mrs. Fairbanks will naturally be one of great social interest. Mrs. Fair banks, even before her husbands cleo ton to the vice presidency, occupied distinguished position in American society and since his election she has maintained with great brilliancy and distinction a position that Is not al- ways easy even to a woman as tactful as Mrs Fairbanks Those who know her personally declare that she Is won derfuliy charming, and ali Washington admits that the wife of the vice pres ident is far more popular socially than is Mrs. Roosevelt.
 No entertainments of even an inc formal nature have yet been announc- ed in honor of Vice President and Mrs. Fairbanks, but they will be welcomed with cordial hospitality and their vis- 1t will be socially brilliant in so far as suited to their wishes.

Contractor Killed Near Sparks

When train No. 10 pulled into the Reno
yards Monday morning at Z o'clock the
engine carried on the ~cowcatcher the
torn parts of a coat and parts of a
blood-stained shirt. showing that a trag-
edy had occurred some place between
that city and Sparks. Coroner Read was
at once notified and near the reduction
works he found the mutilated remains OF
a man. which on investigation proved TO
be the remains of William f. Jones. a
stone contractor of that city.
The body had been struck by train
No. 10, the fast mail. and all trains pass
ing the place of the tragedy after that
time passed over the mangled re-la.as
OF the unfortunate man. 1t is known
that Jones was struck by train No. 10
from the fact that the engine of that
train had parts of the mans clothing on
the brake beams and blood and pieces
of flesh were still c~linging to the engine
wheels when the engine entered the
roundhouse at Sparks. His wife claims

OBJECT TO LIBRARY SITE.

The people of Carson are making a
prodigious effort to have the State Board
of Capitol Commissioners change the To-
cation of the new library building. Ever
since it was proposed to place the build
ing at the rear of the capitol there has
been much objection. but since the erec-
ton of the Mackay statute became a
public question. the people of the city
have been greatly aroused.
Saturday a petition, urging the loca-
ton of the library building at a more
conspicuous place, was started in circu-
lation and it bears the signatures of half
of Carson. The signers declare the artis-
tic elegance of the building will be lost
if buried at the rear of the capitol. No
one would ever see the Mackay statute
say these excited citizens, if it is closet
ed in the backyard of the capitol
grounds.

SOLVED FUEL PROBLEM.

Several Goldfield people are seriously
interested in the project of a local miner
to solve the fuel problem by making
fuel %briquettes from crude oil and
gr-easewood or ~sagebrush. The discoverer
of this happy combination says that
when the brush is cut fine and COM
pressed under high pressure. after being
soaked in oil, it possesses great potency
for creating heat and that 1t will retain
it's fuel value for many months.
Briquettes thus made, from native
brush and oil selling at $2.25 a barrel In
Goldfeld. he says. can be retailed at
1886 a ton, which is about one-third the
price charged for Woo and about one
NTH the cost of coal. 1t will radiats as
much heat as either. he says.
The discoverer of the new briquette Is
trying to form a company to manufac-
ture the new fuel. which. he says. will
greatly reduce the cost of generating
power in the southern Nevada country.

has named the prospect the Avalanche.

southeast of Yerington. The ledge IS
fifteen feet wide and carries mainly a
carbonate and cuprite ore, while a small
amount of gold shows up in some of he

FISH CULTURE STATION

A bill has been introduced in the House
of Representatives to appropriate $25. 600
for a fish culture station in Nevada and
also for an appropriation of $4,000 for a
similar station in the State of Washing
ton. The location of the station in Me-
vada is to be left to the Fish CoInm.s
~sioners. but it will be placed on one of
the Truckee River.
Nevada has long been in need of a
fish culture station and 1t. will mean a
great deal for the State If the bill Is
passed. The streams will then be kept
well supplied with fish and Nevada will
no longer ave to buy spawn from the
California hatcheries.

GOES BACK
ON REQUISITION

There is a battle on in Ogden between
Sheriff Murphy of Lander county ana
the Governor of Illinois for the possess
sion of two men named Peacock ana
a man named Finnegan, who are wanted
in Lander county for numerous crimes
committed there some time ago.
The prisoners are still in Jail at Og-
den. but will be given their freedom IL
the Governor of Illinois wins his Ioint.
They are now being detained by a
writ of habeas corpus obtained by Sher-
if Murphy of Lander county, Nevada
The Peacock brothers and Finnegan
are alleged to have cheated many Ian
der county people out of money by false
pretenses and then went to Chicago.
They were arrested there about TWO
weeks ago and the Governor of Illinois
granted Governor Sparks of Nevada
requisition papers to bring the men back
to Nevada to stand trial. Governor
Sparks Immediately sent Sheriff Murphy
after the men and he was en- route with
them when the requisition papers were
withdrawn by the Governor.
The men were put in iail at Ogden by
order of the Governor of Illinois and
Sheriff Murphy Immediately asked for a
writ of habeas corpus to take them from
Jail and bring them to Nevada. The
legal battle is now being fought out in
the Ogden courts.

CRIMINAL BEES.
Honey her That Have Very
Loose Moral Ideas.

Honey here That Have VERY
Loose Moral Ideas.
Almost every form and variety of hu-
man crime is to be found among AMI
mails. Cases of theft are noticed among
bees. Buchner in his Psychic Life of
Animals speaks of thievish bees
which. in order to saw themselves the
trouble of working. attack well stocked
hives In masses, kill the sentinels and
the inhabitants. rob the hives and car
ry off the provisions. After repeated
enterprises of this description they ac-
quire a taste for robbery and violence.
They recruit whole companies. which
get more and more numerous, and
finally they form regular colonies Of
brigand bees.
But it is a still more curious fact that
these brigand bees can be produced ar.
tificially by giving working bees a mix
ture of honey and brandy to drink.
The bees soon acquire a taste for this
beverage. which has the same disas-
trous effects upon them as upon men.
They become i'll disposed and irritable
and lose all desire TO work. and finally,
when they begin to feel hungry, they
attack and plumber the we'll supplied
hives.
There is one variety of bees = the
sphecodes = which live exclusively up
on plumber.

only sos per cent of the total ip

exports to that country in the same

care, the state of affairs was pretty

wondered immensely at Miss Malling's
sudden fit of unworldliness. Strangely
enough, Babette,s with all her sharpness,
was one of the last to- hear of her mis-

it she began wondering and watching un-
til in her own mind she was sure that
Miss Mailing was really deeply in love
with this good-looking Mr.. Dornton.
Babette liked Jack, and, knowing, as she
believed she did, the evil Of Pauline's
heart, she was sorry to think that such
an altogether too charming yonug man
should be so thrown way.
So Babette was always on the watch
fer some elsW that would help her to
