Thu notice iD another column an
nouncing the close Of the Creamery
for the season, probably might have
read for all time. The past few
years have given such abundant
crops that the farmers have turned
their attention more and more to
crop raising, and gradually reduced
their dairy herds. From Il highly
profitable business the Creamery has
been getting less and less cream un-
til the past season 1t has hardly had
enough to pay running expenses and
give it's patrons a fair price for the
product, and the promise of n still
greater decrease In the dairy herds
is the basis of the opening statement.
: In the years 1t has run the Cream
ery has made many dollars Tor the
farmers OF the county over what
they could have gotten from any Of
the trust concerns, 1t was a sure
thing In the hardest years. and many
will learn with regret OF it'sprobable
closing. -

fire at night, coming in town only for
provisions and to report the progress.
Three times they have been in town.
They nave succeeded in tracing out the
map to but half the distance it covers.
There they have met the first serious
obstacle. Coming out of a mountain
range upon a wide desert they are un-
able to pick out the trail on the oppo-
site side. For over a month they
have been on the far side of the desert,
finding them selves baffled at every
turn. The old ~prospector left no
tracks when he passed through, and
his memory weakened by approaching
death evidently failed to call up the
minute details of the topography Of
the landscape at this point.

"Flirtina, With Brook Trout.

If the farmer boy Is more successful
in his catch than the city fisherman it
Is because he realizes the advantage
OF keeping out of sight. OF course the
supposition is that other conditions are
equal. Familiarity with n stream Of
ten has much to do with the size OF
the string. Trout especially love to
hide under wooden bridges. water
soaked logs. branches, etc. They seem
to realize that safety Is found in such
places. When the current will not take
the worm to these spots one must re-
sort to flirting" This is done by
holding the hook In the left hand and
bending the pole until the tension is
sufficient to throw the worm over the

Then he mailed another letter, and
patiently began another term of wait

tent, nursing a terrible cough, con

inconsistent with health, and existing

A heavy storm set in, the cough be-

AS every one familiar with mining
camp life knows, "missed hole' ex-
plosions send many poor fellows to pre-
mature graves and through life hope
less cripples, says the Ely Expositor.
These accidents could be avoided by
using an explosive costing consider
ably less than dynamite, which was
experimental with in the construc-
ton of the Simplon tunnel made a
soaking meal of powdered charcoal in
liquid air or liqual oxygen, and the
powdered carbon being first packed
into a case made of stout paper and
covered with an asbestos wad, through
which passes a paper tube to the bot
tom of the cartridge. Just before
firing the liquid air is poured into the
tube, and the firing is as usual by
means of a illuminate cap. As the
liquid air gradually evaporates, the
period between filing and firing is
limited TO below ten minutes. A
miss-fire is not dangerous, because at
the end of half AN hour the liquid has
entirely disappeared and the cart
ridge may again be handled with
safety. The use of this economical
explosive had to be abandoned in the
tunnel by reason of the quantities of
carbon monoxide which it produced in

For years without lumber the west
has been portrayed by the eastern
press as being a "wild and w~oolly',
section, where men were hanged upon
the slightest pretext, especially for
horse stealing. But recent events in
New York, as told in the press dis
patches indicate that even the "wild-
est and woolliest'' locality in the
west is being outdone nearly every
day in the Empire state metropolis.
Il cause of the prevalence of many
Hnear' crimes in that village the
people appear disposed to hang some
body every day, and it don't seem to
make any difference whether The
hangee is guilty of any particular
crime or not. A Greek 80 years old.
was pursued by a bowling mob of
1000 people the other day because h
had presumed to kiss an 1"l-year-old
girl, and only the timely arrival of
the police saved Mr.. Greek from orna-
menting a convenient pole. As it was,
the mans eyes were blackened, his
nose broken, scalp torn and his body
bruised. After the Greek had been
rescued by the police the mob vented
its fury IN an unoffending workman,
who was pointed out by a small boy
as the Greeks friend. This workman
was thereupon pounded until he was
unconscious. In the west it has been
considered sufficient to Zeal out pun
ishment to the principal in any of
Tending act. The eftete east is GER
tainly entitled to the credit of having
established a new principle of justice
Or injustice. Carried to its logical
conclusion, this principle of punish
ment of a nan s friends for the man s
misdemeanors would make each indi
vidual his brother keeper with a
vengeance. Let us be thankful this
rule of mob law has not yet officially
BEEN adopted in the "wild and wool
ly' west.-Beatty diner.

EXPLOSION WIPES OUT A CAMP
Used too Much Powder and Great
Damage Resulted

An explosion oceurrt d at Copper
Flat, near Ely, last Thursday even
ing about 7 O'Clock that just about
wiped the entire camp off the face of
the earth. Fortunately no one hap
pened to be in the danger zone, and
although the big boarding house and
several other structures were shatser-
ed to %splintors, not a person was in
jured A gang of Italians, who were
working on the railroad grade, were
responsible for the disaster. They
placed 35 kegs of black powder in
the embankmont, but took the pre-
caution to warn the people of the dan.
ger. Everybody took to the hills aad
waited for results. They arrived at
their places of safety none too soon
as in a short time an explosion such
as old miners had never heard before
shook the air. When the smoke and
dust had clear d away the boarding
house was missing. A rev boards mere
and there were the only indications
that such a structure had eyer stood
on the site. The same happened to a
number of bunk houses. The roots
OF several residence were crushed in
and the tntire lamp looked as though
a cyclone had struck it. The boarding
house was 200 feet in length and IS
feet wide. 1t was a wooden struc-
ture and was furnished Tor feeding
large gangs of men. The pots, ket
ties and other cooking utensils weri
strewn in al directions. The loss has
not been definitely stated, but it is
all of $1,000 and probably eonsl4er-
ally more.
