TO BUILD BRANCH
ROAD into NEVADA

The Southern Pacific officials in New
York and Chicago have reached de-
cision to build railroad eighty miles
long from Mojave in northeasterly di-
rection into the Owens River country.
The undertaking will cost about s., 800, :
600, and it is understood part of the ex-
pense is to be assumed by the city of
Los Angeles The construction of this
piece of road is needed by Los Angeles
to help it build its new water system.
1t is to pipe water from the Owens River
country in Inyo county, and will, in
March next, vote on the question of
issuing bonds for that purpose. Congress
has given permission to carry out the
project.
The route of the road will be across
part of the Mojave desert and through
the Red Rock Canyon. By building this
branch line, the Southern Pacific people
will form a cutoff route into Southern
California from Hazen, station on the
Central Pacific, in Nevada, east of Reno.
This ut-of will run southwesterly from
Hazen via Nina and Mojave, in this
State Between Hazen and Sodaville the
road is broad gauge line. Between
Sodaville and Keller the road, which is
known as the Carson and Colorado, is a
narrow gauge line. The new branch
between Mojave and Keller is to be a
broad gauge road. Later on the Carson
and Colorado will be broad gagged.

boxes. On the second floor there will
be six OF eight nice conmodious Office
rooms. 1t is the intention of the bank
people to get this building under way
just as soon as possible and to this end
they have an advertisement in this issue
of the TIMES calling for bids to construct
the building according to plans and
specifications now on file at the bank.
The building will be the finest yet con-
structed in the town and shows that the
owners have faith in the old town of
Yerington and the great copper district
surrounding it.

Sudden and Sad Death of Charles
w. Moore.

Chas. w. Moore, a well known
painter, Of this town. died suddenly at
his home on Tuesday evening about
s o'clock. He fell on the street, in
front of the residence Of Mr.. Royal,
and was taken to his home nearby and
died soon afterwards without regaining
consciousness. The circumstances are
peculiarly sad. He had been drinking
heavily for some time, and was trying
TO sober up. On the afternoon ofTues-
day he got a prescription OF chloral,
about 60 grains, with directions to
take it in four doses, at proper inter
walls. He took the medicine home and
his wife gave him dose, which seem
ed to help him very much. 1t seems,
however, that he drank the entire bot
tie Of chloral without his wife's know
ledge. He started back to town, and
when a short distance from his home
fell as stated above, and never Tecov-
cred.
Chas. Moore was born and reared in
this town, and was popular with every
body. He was a good painter, and
kind and obliging. His worst enemy
was himself. The drink habit has had
him in its grip for years, and he seem
ed unable to break it. He leaves a wife
and six small children, with no means
of support.
The funeral exercises were conduct
ed by several of the ministers Of the
town, at which time those present con-
tributed about $75 and put it into the
hands of the widow for her benefit.
VIII this awful warning be needed:
1t was widely remarked on Wednes-
day that others in this section are 60
ing rapidly the same way, and not
withstanding frequent occurrences OF
this sort, were making little or nc
| effort to reform. Will we never learn
wisdom?

The Editor of this paper heSi

As to the comet, the Scientific
American, very high authority
ON such subjects, was our source
of information. This scientific

for granted that it was just so.

Fair Receipts
Premiums. Etc.

The Fair was a splendid sue
cess in every way. More inter
est was taken in the number and
character of exhibits than ever
before. The cattle, sheep, swine,
horses and poultry exhibits
were creditable indeed and in
dicated increasing interest on
the part of the county people.
The criticism made and fear ex-
pressed that the "Fair will de
generate into d horse racing
show" is uncalled- fer and
groundless. Let the races con-
tinue, and let the county far
mers and house keepers see to
it that the other departments
are full and creditable. A county
Fair is as blank without horses
and racing as 1t would be with
out ''punkins" and other pro-
ducts. All departments must be
kept full.
RECEIPTS.
The gate receipts, grand stand
tickets. concessions, ETC., all
told. reached a larger sum than
at any previous Fair, amounting
to, in round numbers, $4, 900. 90.
