Senator Beveridge of Indiana went up into Wisconsin to fish and con- mune with nature, with no companion but his guide, who was cook in the camp also, says the Washington Star.
 The senator is not good fisherman. He was out one morning trying to get some trout and making a poor fist of it. when another boat came along and the fishermen in it began a conversa- ton. They talked on general topics fir a time, and the stranger finally asked:
 "Is your man a good cook?"
 He is," broke in the Beveridge guide, as he looked scornfully at the senator's empty creel, he is-when he has anything to cook"

Dr. Edward Everett Hale, chaplain oi the senate, usually listens for an hour or so daily to debate, taking a sort of fatherly interest in the mem- hers, as the chaplain of boys school night. The story goes that Dr. Hale unce asked a certain senator with a good deal of solicitation if he was a church. member The senator was glad to be able to say that he was. Two or three days later, according to the s-Cry, Dr. Hale recurred to the sub- jact and asked the name of the church. The senator gave a name. Two or three days later again Dr. Hale re marked with regret that he had looked up that church and that he was sorry to find that it had been burned down 12 years before-and never rebuilt.

SENTENCED TO IS YEARS
Martin Bronco Murderer From
Eureka Brought in Today to Serve a
Long Term

Today the Sheriff of Eureka arriv-
ed with Martin Bronco who killed
Joriman in Eureka. He had a fued
Pete Repetto and killed Joriman
thinking he was RepettO.
The ury found for murder in the
second degree and Judge Breen SEN
fenced him for 80 years.
Martin Bronco is a native of Italy,
81 years of age, and has been in the
United States 13, years. He came to
Eureka about two weeks before his
late trouble, and was working for the
Richmond-Eureka Compny on Ruby
Hill. According to the rules of the
Nevada State prison each convict is
given two months credit every year
for good behavior. AS the prisoner
is sentenced to 35 years, he should
receive about six years credits, max
ing him 60 years of age at the time
Of his release.

THEY SCRAPED the CASES

When Will U. Mackey entered the
State Printing Office this morning
he was visibly agitated for he knew
what was coming.
AS soon as he showed up the typo
nearest the door scraped the edge OF
his composition stick" along on the
lower edge of his case making a most
unearthly rasping noise which was
by the entire composing room and for
time it seemed as if bedlam had
broken loose. Mr.. Mackey, who is
the foreman of the office, blushed at
the reception and bowed and smiled
and said something about it being
all right boys" and the incident
closed.
The cause of the demonstration
Twas the fact that new baby
had arrived in the Mackey household
and it was boy.
The scraping of the sticks on the
cases was merely to show that the
efforts of the Mackey family to assist
in the upbuilding of Nevada met the
approval of the Typographical Union
of which foreman Mackey is shin
ing light.

CARSONITES IN RAMSEY

On the hill ostuh of the Walkover
mine the Ramsey-Capital Mining COM
pany is sinking a vertical shaft and
the members state they will continue
sinking to the 200 foot level.
The Ramsey Capitol company is
sinking on ledge that outcrops very
strong and for long distance. Its
dip is quite straight and the vetical
shaft, in the neighborhood of fifty
feet, is in ore all the way. Other
dikes are on the ground owned by
the company, but the one undergoing g
development produces the best sur
face values and for that reason the
big shaft will be sunk there. Two
hundred feet will very likely get the
workings below water level and into
the Sulphides. The resolve to get
good depth before crosscutting is a
wise provision and indicates the sub
stantial methods of the new company
They are expending their own money
ir 6ey elopment and have not made an
effort to issue or sell stock. The com.
pany has choice group of claims
with ledges producing very good sur.
face values and everything points to
the opening of big producing mine
on their property.-Ramsey Recorder

DYNAMITE AND AGRICULTURE
Why Trees Cannot Grow on the Uni
versity Campus at Reno

The Reno Journal has at last ac-
knowledged what the Appeal has so
often stated that trees cannot grow
on the University campus.
When this statement was first
made in the Appeal the Reno papers
consigned the editor to a life mem
bership in the Annianus club.
Now Prof. Doten comes to the front
and explains why trees cannot grow
on the campus.
His opinion is published i'll the
Journal as follows
Great difficulty has been encounter
ed in getting trees to grow on the
university campus. The reason of
this, as explained by Professor Doten,
pan, consisting of very hard clay con-
tanning, apparently, little or no vege-
table norishment, and through which
the roots of the trees have great diff
ticulty in penetrating.
This hard-pan lies at a depth Of
from few inches to a foot below
the surface, and ranges in depth from
eighteen inches to four feet. Below
this there is soil which is very nutri-
tious, and upon which the trees, with
hardly enough roots to penetrate the
hardpan, thrive when once it is
reached.
The Journal then suggests dynimite
as means by which the ground
could be broken up and made fertile
The picture OF the gardener touching
+ Off his blasts Of dynamite and the
dentonations sounding over the city
of Reno is indeed an inspiring one
The dynamite exercises might be ar
ranged for the Fourth of July so thai
the explosions could jibe in with the
celebration OF the Natal day q
American liberty.
The Journal concludes its lesson il
explosive agriculture by the follow
ing:
1t would be a beautiful sight espec
tally in spring and summer, if Uni
versity Hill were crowded with
growth of trees, and Reno, which
would get the benefit of the view
might with propriety aid in plantin
them.
We will state for the benefit of tn
Journal that if they will move the il
stitutiOn to Carson the state can hav
soil which has no hardpan underneat
and where the Academic and Area,
ian groves grow naturally and will
out the aid of explosives.

"LET 'ER GO" IS NOW THE SLOGE
STATE VS.. SAN PEDRO R R.
The Company Confesses Judgement
in Suit Brought by U. S. District
Attroney

The San PerdO, Los Angeles and Salt
Lake railroad filed stipulation to-
day with the Clerk of the Federal
Court for this district permitting a
judgement to be taken against it in
the suit brought by the government
for violation of the Safety Appliance
Act. United States Attorney Platt,
upon the suggestion Of the Interstate
Commerce Commission on June zotb-
last field complaint against the rail-
road company setting up two sep
arate causes Of action for violations
Of the federal law providing that all
interstate cars and trains should be
equipped with improved automatic
coupling and modern safety coupling
devices. The companE appeared and
answered to the complaint. and the
case was set down for trial next
month. AS above stated the COM
pany admitted that judgment should
be taken against it for the penalties
fixed for each violation and for costs
In an interview today United
States Attorney Platt said:
The government victory in this
case is not important in SO far as
the amount of fines and penalties
received may be concerned, for the
maximum penalty for each violation
of the law is only in the nominal
sum of one hundred dollars, and but
two violations are charged. But the
governments success in this action
will serve as a statutory example to
all railroads engaged in Interstate
commerce that the Safety Appliance
law must be rigidly obeyed The act
in its present form was passed by
Congress and approved March ,, 1903
Its object was directed mainly to-
ward the protection of the railroad
employees. Much loss Of life in rail
rOading has been Occasioned by de-
fectiye coupling and the necessity
for breallmen jumping between cars
to connect a train and the govern
ment deemed it wise to Interfere
Most positive instructions have been
sent by the Attorney General to
United States Attorneys all over the
country to vigorously prosecute all
violations of this law"
