They are coming from the mountains.
Ihey are coming from the sea-
They re returning from the country,
But not fast or cheeriIy
For the playtime now is over
No more they re free to roam,
But they re marching back from good times
To the tune OF Home, Sweet Homel''
They have ''done" the places nebIy,
Spent their store of boarded wealth
With careless ease. plain showing.
They re just working for their health.
They have clipped" and they have sqnan-

Shone before the eyes of men;
Now they've got to put their noses
To the grindstone once again.
The homebound crowd is growing;
Not the merry crowd that went
Facing t'other way some weeks back,
On good time eager bent.
Now they re cross and much disSruntled,
Feeling life's hard old poke;
Dead tired, they're coming homeward,
And what is more. dead broke.

COMMISSIONERS IN
SESSION
P. H. WOLF APPOINTED
GAME AND FISH WARDEN
Plans for New Jail Ordered to be
Drawn up and Various Other Mat
ters Before the Board

The commissioners resumed their
session this morning and will probably
conclude this evening Among the
matters out of the regular routine
were numerous petitions that were
acted upon. A petition presented by
citizens of Lovelock requesting that
P. H. Wolf be aoppointed fish warden
for Humboldt county, was passed ia
vorably and hereafter the Lovelock
constable will look after the execu-
tion of the game laws.
A petition requesting the appoint
ment of sheep inspectors was not
granted for the reason that the new
state laws in regard to sheep inspec-
tion takes the power of appointing
sheep inspectors from the county COM
missioners.
Plans were ordered drawn up for
the new county Jail. Some time was
spent in the discussion of the branch
county Jail at Lovelock. The commits
s'oners say that the Lovelock consta-
BILE and justice of the peace are abus-
ing the privilege of bringing danger
Gus prisoners to the county Jail, that
they commit prisoners to this iail.
who it is intended in the law to i'm
prison at Lovelock. They discussed
the adv'sability of repairing and re-
fitting the Jail at Lovelock and refus-
ing the payment of claims against the
county for the bringing of prisoners
up from Lovelock who are neither
dangerous nor criminal.
They also discussed the advisable
ity of placing signs at different road
crossings in the county to direct trav-
elers.

SOUTHERN NEvADA's
ONE RIVER

The Amargosa is the only river on

call the stream brook. The bed of
the river, where a little water uneeas-
ingly trickles. is almost large enough
to accommodate the Sacramento in
California, and occasionally is pretty.
well filed after heavy storm. Out
IN the broad, white desert it rushes
madly, tearing up the brush which
began growth since the last food, and
threatening to deface the arid waste.
Little by little the sands drink the
muddy water and the torrent loses it's
force. At last the sand has taken all
and the dry bed extends on alone
through the desert. According to the
Indians Amargosa means bitter water,
but here at Beatty it is certainly a
misnomer. Farther on south. though.
where the water rises again, it is Bit

HIGH WATER MARK
IS REACHED
FLOOD WATERS FROM
THE NORTH FINALLY
REACH THIS POINT
Entire River Bottom and Adjacent
Low Lands are Submerged by the
Swelling Current

The Humboldt River is higher now
than it has been so far this season.
The food waters from the northern
part of Humboldt and Elko counties
have finally reached here and as a re-
suit the entire river bottom and the
adjacent low lands are submerged.
The flood waters from the creeks in
Paradise Valley have broken through
he barrier of sand and are emptying
into the big river. Parties from Par
adise Valley state that large head Of
water from the north is entering the
Humboldt and that it looks like this
amount will be increased.
No fears are entertained that any
damage will be done, although consid-
erable Inconvenience is being caused
by the high water. Carter and Stew
art, sheep men of Golconda, are balk-
ed in an attempt to bring their sheep
from Golconda to their sheep shearinp
corrals east of Winnemucca. the high
water in Gum Boot Flat rendering
crossing impossible. In ordelpto bring
the sheep down they will have to
come on the east side of the river and
cross the bridge here.
The food waters have come up
around the power house here and en-
tered the corrals of the Haviland and
Hoskins stables They have also come
up to David diroux's barn and he is
today removing haystack which is
threatened to be submerged.
