A Jacobs Story.

A magazine editor was talking about
w. w. Jacobs, the famo1s humorist.
81 went abroad last summer" be
said, "to try and get Mr.. Jacobs to
write for me; but found that he bad
all he could do for six or eve years
to come.
"He is a quiet, modest chap. When
| praised his wonderful skill in the
writing of short stories, he said that
1t was only their surprises that made
his stories take.
Then, to illustrate what he meant,
he told me a story wherein the sur
prices came fast and furious.
"He said that a lawyer, defending a
man accused of house breaking, spoke
like this:
Your honor, | submit that my ell
ent did not break into the house at all
He found the parlor window open and
merely inserted his arm and removed
a few trifing articles. Now, my ell.
ent's arm is not himself, and | fail TO
see how you can punish the whole in
diyidual for an offense committed only
by one OF his limbs
THAT argument said the judge, is
very well put. Following it logically,
/ sentence the defendants arm to one
years imprisonment. He can accom-
pany It or not as he chooses.
"The defendant smiled, and with MS
LAWYERS assistance unscrewed MS
cork arm and, leaving it in the dock,
walked out

The demand that comes from all
over the state, from men in all lines of
activity, and especially from the farm
er, the stockman and the fruit grower,
that the State College be literally
Dealt with by the present legislature,
will certainly be needed. No influence
has been more felt for good throughout
the state than the influence of the
State College, and it is leaving its i'm
press upon all avocations. Every dol
lar expended in the carrying on of the
work of the institution has been re-
turned to the people many fold and it
would be an unwise economy that
would give it less now than it's needs
demand. The college is today crowded
to its fullest capacity, there having
been no material appropriations for
new buildings or equipment since the
session of 1899, when Science hall and
Ferry hall were obtained. In view OF
the great work already accomplished,
and the greater work still to be accom-.
plished, the regents, who know bes
what is needed, should be given tn,
modest appropriation for which they
ask.

HAVILAND & HOSKINS
BUILD NEW STAGE STATION
Enterprising Mail Contractors Shorten
Stage Relays to Facilitate the
Transportation of the Mail

A six horse load of lumber went
northward this morning over the Par
adise road. Its destination is point
on the Paradise road near the tirayson
mail box, about two miles due north
of Willow Point station, where a new
stage station is being built by Hav-
land & Hoskins, the mail contractors
and livery men.
The station is being put in to
1orten the relay drives of the stages
fhe present drives are from Winnie
mucca to the Toll House, distance of
IL miles, from the Toll House to Will
low Point, distance of Is miles, and
from Willow Point to Paradise, a dis
tance of Is miles. The new relays will
be IL, IA and Is miles respectively.
This will greatly facilitate the trans
portation of the mail between Para
disc and Winnemucca, and it will also
represent saving of horsefesh, since
the drives for the stage horses will be
considerably shortened.
