TO ATTACH ENTIRE ROAD.
Frantic Efforts of an Official to Collect
an $4,000 Judgment.

New York. Oct 23.-In an effort to
collect a judgment for $4,000 against
the New York, New Haven & Hartford
railroad, Deputy Sheriff Buns yester-
day attempted to attach the entire
railroad. The deputy went to the Of
fees of the railroad and served the at
tachment on Treasurer Thomas F. Par
adise, announcing that he intended to
levy on the office furniture. On being
told that the furniture would not cover
the amount, he stated that he would
then levy on the railroad. He left the
treasurer's office with the intention of
attaching one of the trains standing
ready to leave the station. While Off
Gals were explaining to him that the
rolling stock of the road was all mort
gagged and therefore could not be at
tached, the roads attorneys secured a
stay of execution from the supreme
court. The Judgment represents rul-
ing of s17.5o0 and costs obtained by
William Carroll, whose legs were cut
off while he was repairing car in the
companys yards. 81 +.

THE UNIVERSITY NOT BANKRUPT

Not long ago it was published that
the University of Nevada was nearly
without funds. Regent Smith and Sec
rotary Taylor, of the University re-
gents, deny this story and state that
the college is in a good way financially.
Secretary Taylor states that in Janu-
airy, 1907, the Nevada legislature pro-
vided the sum of $s5, 900 for the college
and that the federal government gives
the college about $4,000 every two
two years. He says that most of the
state appropriation is exhausted, but
that the federal appropriation is hold
ing out, as usual. Taylor says that the
college will be in debt only about
$4,000 at the end of the year, and that
a new appropriation is forthcoming
from the Nevada legislature in January.

A WINNER

The Crop Reporter of November,
1908, has some interesting facts regard
ing the output Of the state. With one
exception-that of Idaho-Nevada leads
every state in the union in the weight
of oats per bushel, being 3S pounds,
some states boing as low as 20 pounds
to the bushel. This state leads all
others in the production of potatoes to
the acre, being 200 bushels, Utah being
next with 160 bushels. Nevada also has
the prize as raising the best sweet
potatoes with an output of $50 bushels
to the acre and quality rated at 90 out
of a standing of 100, and holds second
place in the production of apples.
