STACKS OF MAIL
SPENDS RAINY DAY ON A TRAIN
Debating TO HIS
sTENocRAPHER.

Attnang. Puchein, Upper Astria,--
Aboard Roosevelt train, April 2o.--AI-
though IT was after midnight when the
train bearing the Roosevelt party left
Budapest, the colonel was up at z to-
day. As the train left Vienna, a heavy
fall of rain obscured the landscape and
Roosevelt turned his attention to the
vast accumulation OF correspondence
For three hours the former president
dictated without interruption to his
stenographer. The letters and tele-
grams which reach Roosevelt increase
in numbers daily While many are
from friends and acquainrances in
America and Europe, the majority are
from persons of whom the recipient
has never known.
Upon leaving Budapest, Roosevelt
was obliged to decline the invitation OF
the yavaria government made through
the Vavarian minister at the Austrian
court to stop over several hours in
Munich today.

SHEPHERDS AND FLOCkS PERISH
Heavy Snow and Cold Weather Cause
Big Loss In Humboldt

Reno. Nevada. February 4. A French
sheepherder arriving in Reno yesterday
from q point near Donnelly Mountain,
in the northern part Of Humboldt Coun-
ty, states that on the desert near the
foot Of Donnelly Mountain two sheep
herders. their faithful dogs and pack
animals and more than 5000 head Of
sheep lie frozen to death and covered
over with a mantel Of snow.
He states that the sheep belonged to
B. Lasaga of Eagleville. in Surprise VAL
ley. California. and that Lasaga has
5000 more head OF sheep in that country
which he is willing to sell at the rate of
20 cents.per head. He states that Lasaga
has no feed for the animals and that
they are slowly freezing and starving to
death. The informant claims that the
two sheepherders who lost their lives
while attending their fiocks are buried
beneath the snow and their bodies will
not be found until the snow melts.
This is ouly one Of the many pitiful
stories reaching this city from Northern
Nevada. where the storms have been
severe and thousands of head of sheep
and cattle have porished.

Electricity Basis Of
Perfect AnaeSthetiC

A Philadelphia special to the Record.
Herald says:
Years Of investigation by noted sur
geons for a perfect anaesthetic which
would have no detrimental effects on
the heart or other vital organs Of the
patient have apparently been rewarded.
Electricity has come to the relief of the
surgeon, and investigation going on
here and abroad. the results Of which
have just been made public, shows that
electricity is far superior to any of the
drugs now used.
It produces a state Of insensibility
called "electric sleep" by acting on the
nerve centres Of the brain. The sleep
is not fatal. and when the electric cur
rent is opened the influence is immedi.
ately lost and the patient becomes con.
scious without feeling any of the after
effects common with drug anaesthetics.
