Governor Sparks In Serious Condition

Governor John Sparks, who for the past three weeks has been
in San Francisco, at the home of his daughter, Mrs Mckenzie, re-
turped to Reno Wednesday, accompanied by his wife, his physician,
DR. ST Clair and a trained nurse Of San Francisco. The Governor
is in a very serious condition and the chance of his complete recov-
erv Is very small The Governor is now parayzed and $ unable 10
move any portion of his body except his hands. He feels contented
that he is home once more, however, and this morning on reaching
the Alamo farm. where he has resided for so many years, said to his
loving wife and his nurse, "Now 1 believe 1 will get we'll 1 am
home once more.
Governor Sparks is in a critical condition., and 1t may be tha'
no will never leave his bed a we'll man, but his thousands OF friends
all over Nevada and California are hoping for the best and are hop
ing that this good man will entirely recover and that he Will soon
be able to attend to his duties as the chief executive of this State
once more. :,
Governor Sparks, worn out by long trips through the State and
by constant worry during the trying times of the labor troubles In
Goldield. when it was necessary to call the Nevada Legislature IN
extraordinary session, became i'll, and although advised by friends
to return to his home and allow some one else to attend to the al
fairs of the State, he fought off the sickness and remained in his
office in Carson until the critical period in Goldfeld was passed.
He then returned to his home on the Alamo stock farm weak, tired
and sick man.
After spending a few weeks at his ranch under the care OF a
nbvsician the Governor gradually improved and at last went to San
Francisco to visit with his daughter, hoping that be would recover
more quickly on the Coast On the day after his arrival IN the bay

able to move any portion of his body except his hands.

A New Process In Milling Flour

A new process in milling, by which the ~phosphates and other
essential mineral salts are retained and a good merchantabe white
-four produced, has been devised by T. G. Ireland, a food expert
The flour produced by this new system OF milling is uniform IN
quality, whether made from old or new wheat. The bakery shows
a Weld of 20 per cent more bread and of a more nutty flavor and
certainly of greater hygienic value than bread made of any flour
under the old system. In this new system no chemicals whatever
are used in the process. The flour has a slight yellowish color ow-
ing to the retention of the phosphates and other mineral salts, which
are all or nearly all refined out of the white -four by the system
now in use.
In this new -four the starch, gluten, nitrogen, carbon, calcium,
sulphur, sodium, iron, potassium, and magnesium are retained. All
these essential constituents, found naturally in the wheat, are SO
consolidated together and in such a manner that the very best rehn-
ing machinery, while useful in removing the bran, which is a sub
stance of straw, cannot remove the mineral salts mentioned They
are left in the flour, no matter howfne it is understanding American.

An Italians Impression Of Ely

Antonio Scarfogio, the special correspondent of the London
Daily Mail, who accompanied the italian car on the New York to
Paris race, gives his impressions of Ely in the following:
We reached Ely at last 1t was 5 P. N. then, and that city of
wood and canvas was quite deserted, for all the men were still at
work in the mines of copper and silver. The population do not
sleep in houses. They live under huge white tents shaken and lac
Grated by the winds, or in tiny huts built of rough boards held to-
gether with mud.
There is one hotel, the phenomenon, the pride of that city
which is not a city. The inhabitants care for nothing. They are
delrious with the money fever. They, the telegraph and the rail
way are the great adventurers, all hungry for gold.
Eight months ago a man knocked a rock with his hammer and
thus Ely was born. A whole population rushed to the precious spot,
and they were like an army of ravens, or like a multitude of flies
falling upon a lump of sugar.
Hundreds and hundreds of men-and women too-hastened to
this ravine from all parts of the world. And the city is growing.
1t is ugly and dirty, for the inhabitants throw refuse on the streets
Three years from now the fate of this city shall have been de-
cided, either the miners will have found the silver and copper they
are searching for-and in that case these walls of canvas and these
miserable huts of wood will have been replaced by stone buildings
or fortune will not have smiled upon them, and then the city will
disappear and the desert will be once more where the desert was.
The wind will cover with sand the foundations, the first rudi-
ments of a town that was to Guido the glory and wealth of Gold
field. the place from where 1 send these lines, Goldfeld, so rich that
the walls are plated with gold.

agreed to make up any financial deficiency, and President Porter
Nevada to get in line with whatever money and minerals IL
can show and the Nevada exhibit will be pulled of.
All they ask is for Nevada to have what money it can raise on
the ground by May 25, when the Exposition opens, and the manage

system of discrimination practiced by the Hartman corporation,
there has been a general clamor from the unfavored shippers, par

from the shippers who were Disseminated against and threats of
lawsuits to recover the difference between the regular traffic paid
and the lesser rate allowed the favorites have been made.
As a consequence of all this trouble the Southern Pacific Com
