RENO, New, Feb. 16.-Mortimer
F~1eishacker, n of the directors of the
Truckee River General Electric com
pany, is in Reno and is negotiating
with the Reno Development company
for the sale of the Reno Traction
company. The F~eishackers ask $780,
900 for their interest in the road,
which connects the cities of Sparks
and Reno, and the Reno Development
company has offered $4,000. 1t is
thought that the sale will be made.
If the Reno Development company
secures this road, it intends to extend
the line to a suburban tract near Re-
NO and to the shores Of Lake Tahoe.
At this place the company intends to
build an immense pleasure resort. The
Reno Traction company built its line
in this city about three years ago and
it cost about $4,000 for construction.
1t has increased in value to 5000, 900

Large Ears Of Forcst Animals,

Within the limits of particular groups
large ears may be taken, us rule, to
Indicate either great powers of hearing
or the necessity of catching every
wave OF sound. Thus. forest dwelling
animals generally have much larger.
and especially broader, ears than their
relatives inhabiting open country. An
excellent instance OF this is afforded
by the okapi Of the Semlik forest, as
contrasted with the giraffe of the more
open districts of Africa-the ears in
the one case being excessively broad
and leafiike. while in the other they
are comparatively narrow and pointed.
Similarly Crews zebra. which inhab-
its scrub junglcs in Somaliland and
northeast Africa generally. has much
larger and wider ears than the ordl-
nary zebra of the open veldt-Scientif-

AT LOCAL THEATERS.
Polls New Theater.

The Poli stock company of Water bury is making a great success at Polls with stupendous production of "The Octoroon"
 The cast introduced Frances Nord- strom In the leading female role. AL though the part did not allow her to display much cleverness, she did the most with it. She is of pleasing ap- pearance and her work was above the rest of the company.
 Richard Gordon, as Salem Scudder, made a favorable impression He won the audience owing to the fact that he had the part that appeals to all lovers of the melodramatic.
 Harry Drisole was the villain who bids S2,500 for the octoroon, thereby securing possession of her at the auc- tion. The auction scene was the best of the eight scenes shown. The in- troduction of a local colored quartet was welcomed by liberal round of applause and encores were given,
 The story is one of the old slavery days, when the help on the plantation were sold with the land. It allows for some comedy, which was well talk en care of.

Smith The remainder of the estate is willed to his wife, Mrs. Elizabeth Sperry, and as she is dead it will go to the four children. Mir. Sperry left real estate worth $1O,OQO and person. al property of slightly larger amount. The will was signed July 22, 1892.
 Judge Studley yesterday refused to grant administration papers on two estates because the owners of the es- tates offered for probate died over ten years ago.
 According to law, the judge may refuse administration papers on es- tates as old as those offered for the court yesterday, unless some strong reason is shown why they should be admitted.
 In the present cases the estates of Mary and John Corrigan, the former dying in 1892 and the latter in 1885, consist each of an undivided fourth interest in property at AS Fillmore street. The applicant for adminis- tration papers is Irene Cullen, of New York, who wishes, with other heirs, to dispose of the property.

HOWE & sTETsoN's ADDITION.
Big One to be Started by Drygoods
 House About October 1.

Notice has been served to the ten ants of the numerous buildings on Pit kin street, in the rear of the Howe & Stetson stores to vacate by october l.. This was found necessary in order that the building may be ready for the al- terations which it is the intention of IShartenberg & Robinson to make on the Howe x Stetson stores About the date mentioned ground will be broken for new building in the lot adjoining these buildings, and extending from them to the Women's Exchange.
 This new building, in connection with those already mentioned will be added to the stores. It will be one story high and provided with a large roomy basement. All told this large addition will give total of 13, 160 ad- ditional square feet to these popular stores. It is indeed gratifying to note that Shartenberg & Robinson have such great faith in the future of our city. When this firm purchased the Howe x Stetson Co. stores little over a year ago, they at once, and very wisely, made provisions for extensive alterations by immediately extending their leases for a long term of years. Their business foresight told them that the growth of business in the peoples popular store would soon require addl- tional floor and selling space. The many and extensive improvements which were made in the interior of the stores last April were very noticeable, and favorable comments have been heard of the great improvements in the general arrangement of the stores.
 The alterations that are now about to be started will provide a vast amount of much needed room When
