Accidentally Shot Himself.

While Mr.. and Mrs j. a. Hahn were
spending the Fourth at the home of Mrs.
Hahn's parents in the town of Ridge

cidentally shot himself through the
palm of the hand with a toy pistol.

JOHN HAD NOTHING
ELSE TO DO JUST THEN

The other day John Welch was Will
ing away some of his spare time by
tieing a string around his dogs tail.
A lady of strong humane convictions,
who did not know John, was passing
and saw the string. The dog stood
there, wondering was coming next.
"Look here!" said the lady, severe
ly, "haven' It you got anything else
to do but tie string to that dog 8
|tails' :.
"No ma 'am, not just now," said
John, meekly.
"Well, I have my opinion of man
who will abuse a poor dog said the
lady, and she reached into her pocket,
pulled out pair of little scissors and
cut the string off, "Now,' she said,
"you leave that dog alone"
Now John is a thorough gentleman,
and wouldn't talk back to lady for
anything, and so he did not make any
defense or argue the matter with her.
John may know, like most other men,
how useless it is to argue with a
woman.
She did not know at the time that
the dog belonged to John, nor did she
know that that dog has as good a
master as any dog in the state. Since
she has learned the facts, both she
and John smile whenever they meet.

sandwiches, coffee and cake.
Donations are pouring in for the

"Sure,'' said Victor. Chow

"Just bring out all you got" re.
piled the stranger.
"Whats' said Victor, who thought
he misunderstood the customer.
'Bring it all out-I'll take it all, -
replied the customer.
"What are you going to do with sc
muchf' Victor wanted to know.
"Never you mind; take the yeast
and you take the money! said the
stranger.
SO he was loaded up with all he
could carry, and away he went. Their
he went to Browns and bought then
out. Soon after the stranger was
seen by some children opening the
yeast, package after package, and
throwing it into the bed of the ole
creek that used to run through town
AS to what the fellow was looking
fer will probably remain a mystery
He is believed to be still at large.

BRIEF SKETCH or
A SELF-MADE man
(From the National Niner.l

L. G.. Campbell, Republican candi
date for District Judge, is one Of tht
many self-made men Of the West, Of
whom all Americans are justly proud
Born ON Kansas farm, he worked
for his parents, helping to maintain q
large family, until he was 10 years Of
age. At that time he was allowed to
do for himself and, realizing the fact
that an education was a necessary
adjunct to success in life, he went to
work, carefully boarding every penny,
and at the end of four years had ac-
cumulated enough money to enter the
Valparaiso tIndiana) university.
There he took the full course, in
Guiding law, and was admitted to the
bar. Coming west, young Campbell
located in Colorado and began the
practice of his profession with total
cash capital Of $36.
He had many ups and downs, most
ly downs, but he persevered, often
denying himself the necessities of
life, determined to make a success of
his chosen profession. Being an ex-
pert stenographer, he was frequently
offered employment at salary Of $125
per month, which was a great temp
tation to young man with an empty
pocketbook. But having determined
to make success of the law, he kept
on until, by sheer pluck, he made the
community recognize his abilities, and
from that time on his path was COM
paratively easy.
Some half dozen years ago Mr..
Campbell moved to Lovelock, where
he opened law Offices, and where today
his friends are legion. The early part
of this year, for business reasons, he
moved his law offices to Winnemucca,
where he has enjoyed a large and
lucrative practice.
Mr.. Campbell is a gentleman of fine
possessing the judicial
temperament in an unusual degree,
and in all his decisions from the bench
may be relied upon to treat all liti-
gants in a strictly fair and impartial
manner.
