The eood.Tempered Japaneae.


II was into this narrow thorough
fare, already crowded to its utmost
capacity by merchants and shoppers,
merchandise and awnings, that the
mammoth-like Thomas pushed his
way. It was our only route into the
city and so we had no choice as to
what followed. Capt Hansen jumped
out on one side, and | on the other.
We swept aside the merchandise to
save 1t from destruction; pushed back
the awnings against the shop fronts,
and then, having made room for the
automobile, repeated the operations at
the next shop. To try to help the
shopkeepers straighten out their tum-
bled wares would have been useless;
so, not without twinge Of conscience
we continued our disturbing course.
And in the entire length of that street

New ldea for church EaIr.

Church fairs in England have adopt

the light of day at Exeter, where, by

munity tickets at a little above the
ordinary price Of admission, men were
protected from the opportunities Of
women stalIholders to buy. This In

support for the fete. A man, on being

Every applicant Gets
Farm.

The great agricultural devel-
opment now going on in the
West is attracting widespread at
tention, and every LAND open
ing" calls out thousands of let
tiers of inquiry concerning the OPP
pcrtunity for settlers. Just now
unusual interest centers in the
Truckee-Carson irrigation project
in Nevada, where a thousand
farms offered to homeseekers by
the government open alluring
possibilities.
These lands are free to every
bonafed homeseeker, the only ex-
pense with the exception of the
nominal fling fee, being the pro
rata share of the cost of building
the irrigation system. This
charge amounts to $50 per acre,
payable in ten ! annual INSTALL
ments, without interest. There
is no drawing or any element of
charge in applying for one of
these farms. 1t is only necessary
to make a homestead entry at
the land Office at Carson City or
at the Office of Land Commission
err, at Fallon, Nevada.
Nature has endowed few re-
gicns more liberally1with all the
elements necessary to build up
great commonwealth than are
found in this section. The fer
tile fields grow alfalfa, cereals,
fruits vegetables, in fact practic-
ally all the products of the tenn
perate zone; the climate is dry
and delightful, and the valley is
Siugularly free from severe
storms, The sun shines almost
every day in the year. The great
mining regions furnish home
market and good prices for every,
thing that can be raised, and
splendid transportation facilities
connect the project with the COM
mercia centers of the country.
The government irrigation sys-I
tenn assures the farmers an abund-t
ant supply of water. The rivers
offer unlimited possibilities for
the development of power.
If you wish to obtain one of
these farms you should write at
once to the Statistician of the U. |
S. Reclamation service, Wash
ington, D. c., for detailed infOr- !

made to pay at the present prices.
Inasmuch as the price of ore is
likely to remain high, it will not
be very long until the entire
camp will be a scene of activity.
Men are hard to get, and no man
has to be idle if he knows any
thing about mining. Wages are
good, too.
Work on the big four hundred
ton mill of the Mission Mining
Company is going merrily on.
The work is teirg done under
the supervision of men experien-
ced in the line of mill building,
and the mill when completed will
be one of the best in the entire
lead and zinc district. The I'M
derground work is sufficient to
keep the mill supplied with dirt,
and the output from this mine is
going to make the lead and zinc
world sit up and take notice.
While the new mill is being built
the old mill is being run steadily,
and the output from the old mill
is quite satisfactory, considering
the disadvantages worked under.

a building. and with a few additions
this would house all those dependent

of the help that should be furnished

materially reduced. La Plata is un-

answered all questions asked by the

1t was moved by Alderman Scouton
that the old pipe line be abandoned
and the new pipe be laid in the Nelson

was resumed today by John Mcintyre,
who, after speaking all day yesterday,
was given until noon today, when he
concluded. Refreshed by a nights
rest, Mr.. Mcintyre skillfully arrayed
all the evidence tending to prove that
his client was guiltless. The throngs
that yesterday filled the court room
early today were in their places. That
Thornton Hams is verging on a ner-
yous breakdown as the trial nears its
end, is apparent to counsel and spec
tators. His lawyers say that he passes
sleepless nights in his cell. Once or
twice he even had pell of sickness
in court. The prisoners face, when the
trial opened. was full, his four months
of Incarceration in Jail had not less
ened his high color. But today his
face is tense and haggard. Hams
manner has changed. Instead of be

his chair. listening gloomily to the

The opening Of the trial was delayed
today and for a time 1t was thought
that the case might have to be post
poned, the cause being the accident
to Thomas Walsh. the juryman. who
was knocked off a Lexington Avenue
car last night.
Walsh was taken to the Presbyterian
hospital. where twelve stitches were
taken in his scalp wound. The juror
suffered abrasions on the face and
his left eye was hurt. Before the
