Of cleyerness which astonishes one

spines effeetually protect him from
most of his enemies, he does not waste
time, as a. fox terrier will do, in en-
deavoring to worry his prey He mere

knowing that a drop or two will cause
the animal to relax his hold.
1t is q rare thing to catch one in
trap laid at the door Of his EARTH,
even. IL he is inside when the trap is
set he.waits until some other animal
springs it and then energies to eat the
victim and the bait. Only when driven
by the terrible papgs of hunger will he
tempt fate in his own person. Most
animals gorge themselves when they
are fortunate enough to come across a
superabundance of food. Not SO with
reynard. Should he find poultry

The 1n.nc hiIla.

The tiny chinchilla, not more than
twelve inches long, with a plump little
body on short, stout legs, thrives only
in the tropics. The little beasts have to
be killed with the utmost precaution
not to njure their fur. that grows on q
skin nearly as tender and soft as a
web Of silk. A perfect skin not larger
than a small pocket handkerchief is q
revelation in fur growth. The texture
of every hair is finer than floss silk, the

oring about that of the soft, undyed
marabout feathers.

The assembled multitude burst into
enthusiastic cheering and soon after
set off for the imperial palace. But
on reaching the castle bridge over the
Spree a strong body of police opposed
the crowd and forced it back with
some violence. The people then formed
in line agai nand marched down Inter

prince, Frederick William, where they
sang and cbeered. The crown princess
appeared upon a balcony of the palace
and bowed repeatedly to the people.
The crowd then quietly broke up and
dispersed Never before has Berlin

Madrid, Jan. 26.-With five Liberal
ministries wrecked in eighteen months
owing to irreconciliable differences
between the leaders, King Alfonso has
decided that he has no alternative ex
cept to recall Senor Maura, the ex
premier and leader of the Conserva
tives, and ascertain what a strong con-
servative cabinet can accomplish.
The religious issue has been the root
of all the dissensions, ex-Prime Minis
ters Rios, Moret and Dominguez be-
lieving that Spain is not ready for a
radical campaign against the religious
orders and the church generally, upon
which Senior Canelejas, ex-president Of
the chamber of deputies and head Of
the new party known as the Extreme
Liberals, insisted. The accession Of
Senor Maura to power is regarded as
a sweeping victory for the clericals,
and is likely to arouse a revolutionary
spirit.

has won a definite victory in the gen
eral election for a new reichstag The
Liberal, Radical and Conservative par
ties supporting Prince Won Buelow's
colonial policy, have won at least TWEEN
ty seats, but more important for the
government than the success of its
colonial plans IS the smashing defeat
adrSinistered to theSocialists, who will
lose seventeen or eighteen seats. This
is the first election since 1887 that the
Socialists have not increased their rep
rescntatlon In the reichstag by from
five to twenty seats They have lost
especially in several large cities.
among these places being Breslau,
Halle, Magdeburg, Leipzig and Koen-
igsberg.
Many RebaIlotings Necessary.
The clerical center holds almost oil
of it's former 100 seats, having lost one
or two to the Poles in Silesia. There
IS a possibility, however, that rebal-
lotings in the undecided districts may
lose one or two more seats to the Cen
ter party. The Conservatives have
won six seats, two from the Anti
Semites, two from the National LIB
erals, and two from the Socialists Re-
balloting probably will be necessary
in 175 constituencies, so that complete
returns will not be in before Feb. 5.
Crowds Go to Won BuelOw's Home.

TEMBLOR SHAKES
WESTERN NEVADA

RENO, Nov. 25.-Reno and other
parts of western Nevada experience /
the most violent earthquake yester-
day that this section has ever felt
since the big quake of April, 1906,
when San Francisco went up in
smoke.
The temblor made it's appearance
at about 1880 O'Clock and was strong
enough to bang several doors shut.
1t had the jigging motion that usual
ly goes with bad shock. The motion
was from north to south.
1t caused some fright among the
feminine members of the community
who happened to be conscious of it,
and predictions of news of a bad
smashup from San Francisco to come
late in the morning were numerous.
A second shock came between .
and 3 O'Clock, and while more vio-
lent and more generally noticed
here, seems not to have been noticed
in the surrounding communities.

good as the real thing, everybody
said, Then the knowing ones looked
closer, and grinned They were the
real things.

from Washington amounted to $780,

much in town in these times, but

ANOTHER VERSION
OF CLAIM JUMPING

Silver Bow, New, Nov. 16, 1906.
To the Editor of the Tonopah Boz
nanza:
An article appeared in the Bo-
nanza of November 14th headed,
Threaten Moose for Claim Jump
ers," and credited to the Goldfield
Chronicle. If the special correspond
ent of the Chronicle will call aroun1
and see us we can give him a more
correct statement in regard to the
claim jumping at this place. He evil
IDENTITY forgot to state that after the
meeting on November s, at which
meeting it was agreed not to jump
any more claims regardless of the
amount of work done That the
much-abused Girton saw fit to so
construe the meaning of the agree
ment above mentioned. That he
(Girton) was to have the special
privilege of jumping any claims he
could before IL o'clock that night,
which he proceeded to do by jump
ing the Gift claim, which has IT'S
feet of tunnel and sixty feet of raise,
also four men at work taking out ore
at the time, Of the jumping. In re-
gard to the starting of claim jumping
in Silver Bow. the aforesaid Mr.. Cir
ton can give YOU different story
than that it was started by the
Slavonians, for he was called down
for that business before the Nicks
were in Silver Bow.

Will NOT CALL
The INSTITUTE

With the consent of State Superin-
tendent of Schools Ring, District Su-
perintendent Ross has decided not to
hold district institute during 1907.
This action was decided upon in view
of the temporary financial string
ency. The fifth district (Nye and
Lincoln counties) is one of mag
nificent'' distances" and high rates
of travel, and were an institute call
ed 1t would cost many teachers more
than month S salary to attend. At
any time this would in some cases
work hardship; under existing con-
ditions 1t would be unreasonable.
In accordance with the new school
law, state institute will be heEi
during 1908. 1t is suggested that an
effort be made to bring this to south
ern Nevada. The sessions could be
divided between Tonopah and Gold
field, and the teachers of our state
need no assurance that they would
be entertained in both places in Ne
vada's characteristic way.
