SILVERTON. Col, October 25.-With
bullying eyes and lathered sides a large
fawn dashed into the city yesterday.

The race for life was kept up in the main

yells of men and the screams Of women
and children. until the deer was over
taken and borne down by its pursuer.
AS the wolf sank It's teeth into the
throat of the fawn, several men ran up
with stones and clubs, but before they
or others with guns could dispatch it the
animal dashed down an alley and. despite
the efforts of dogs and hOrsemen to over
take 1t, made its escape to the noun
tains.

Loved His University.

Like Mr.. Gladstone, he has loved his
university. and, as in the case Of that
statesman, the university has entered
very closely into the welt and woof Of
his career. When he took to literature
just after taking his degree it was to
coIlaborate with five other oxford men
in essays on liberalism. Oxford has long
since rewarded his affection for her by
overlooking his youth and appointing him
her standing counsel

YOUNG FOR SOLICITOR,
BUT 4 NOTED LAWYER
John AIISebrook Simon AttainS
High Office in Thirty
Seventh Year.
Foreign Correspondence Of The Star

Foreign Correspondence or Inc star
LONDON. October 20. 1910.
The appointment Of so youthful So
Iicitor general as John Allsebrook Simon.
X. c., will not exactly create record. 1t
Is true that Mr.. Simon Is now only thir-
ty-seven years Of age, but still younger
men have been appointed in the past.
Lord Hardwicke, for instance, attained to
the position when only twenty-nine;
while other youthful solicitors have been
Lord Mansfield and Lord Eldon. Nor
does the appointment engender any sur
prise among his colleagues at the bar,
who have. indeed. long since regarded
his preferment as inevitable.
To the lay public, however, Mr.. Simon's
name is as yet little known. But in
England that is to his credit, for it is
proof that he has not advertised. And,
besides, the progress OF his career at the
bar has been the more unnoticed by rea-
SON Of having proceeded by easy and
continuous upward gradients ever since
he went down. from Oxford some four
teen years ago. He will be remembered
in America as one Of the British lawyers
in the Alaska boundary case.
Son Of a Minister.
The son Of a Congregationalist minis
ter, he succeeded in obtaining a scholar
ship at Wadham College, oxford. The
Oxford Of those days-the early 9Os-
harbored many brilliant undergraduates.
but Of all the colleges going to make up
the university, Wadham. a comparatively
small corporation, was then the most dis
tinguished.
Mr.. Simon was not the usual type OF
"showy" undergraduate. But a double
first, a fellowship of All Souls. the presi-
dency of the union, the friendship Of
Jowett and Warren, the president Of
Magdalen, now vice chancellor of the
university whom in character he re-
sembles); all these made him a marked
man among his varsity cotempOr aries.
And even while at oxford the whips had
their eyes upon him. He was already
a shining light of the Eighty Club be-
fore he was entitled to wear a graduate 8
gown.

PUBLIC BUILDINGS

vi DLlI bblLDlINtD
Mr.. A. w. Hesson, Foreman:
We your. committee on public
buildings beg leave to report o,
as follows:
We made a personal examination
of the building and grounds of the
county high school and found the
same to be in frst-class condition
and giving every evidence of being
carefully cared for by the board of
education and the principal and
tea chcrs of tho high school. We
recommend that if possible the
front yard lie graded and graveled.
We also made an examination of
the public school building and
found the same to be practically
perfect in all respects. We com.
mend highly the efforts of the
board Of school trustees of Elko
school district in securing such
a modern school building which
would be a credit to town much
larger than Elko.
We gave careful attention to
the new county court house and
jail now in process of construction.
We studied the plans and specifi-
cations carefully and inspected all
the work done to date and consider
tha; the same conforms both to
the letter and the spirit of the
plans and specifications. We
found that Mr.. K. T.. Rockwell, the
supcrin,endcnt of construction has
the work well in hand and is
jealous in seeing that only first
class material is being used and
that all of the work is bsing done
in accordance with the plaas and
specifications.
We find that $45.6O1 has hcn
expended to date and "" bclieN'
that the county has received fuI
value therefore.
In this connection we desire
sxpccia,ly to cymmcrd the service
of the members Of the board q
county commissioners. Mcssrs. T.

Moody and VIM. Willis, have
rendered and are still rendering

We find that they have give'
and re giving this work the mos
careful attention and have devote'
much m,re time, attention an
energy thereto than their SaIar'c
