TO BEGIN WORK
ON NEVADA STATE

j. s. Mclaughlin, manager of the
Nevada State group at National, yes
terday received advices from the Off
GERS of his company at Kansas City to
Immediately begin operations. Mr..
Mclaughlin this morning telepboned
to Tom Defenbaugh at National to as
certain if the weather would permit of
his making camp on the property and
was told that it would not, as it had
been showing heavily all night and the
snow was still falling.
Mr.. Mclaughlin states that he will
now wait for a week or ten days, or
until weather conditions will permit,
when he will put force of eight or
ten men at work sinking on ledge
average samples from which assayed
from $12 to $14. If conditions in the
spring will warrant, the company will
erect mill on the property with suffi-
cient stamps to handle the product.
There is large territory south of
Three Mile and upon many of the
claims excellent showings have been
made. Should the work in contempla-
tion on the Nevada State group de-
velop mine, it will mean much for
that section.

An Austin special to the Reno Jour
nal states that William A. Watt, a
brother of George Watt, superintend-
ent of the Lander County Livestock

most pominent families of Austin, lies

tin Saturday night.
The injured man passed through
Reno yesterday morning on his way
to San Francisco, and on his arrival at
the bay was met by George Watt, who
had him conveyed to the hospital The
recovery of the injured man depends
solely upon the question of whether in
fection sets in or~not.
Watt entered the International Sat
urday night with his brother, John
Watt, and had been drinking An al
tercation soon arose between William
Watt and others in the place and John

TH|SLOCAL|TY GETS
THOROUGH SOAKING

One Of the severest transforms that
ever visited this locality started in last
night at about 10 o'clock, continuing
until after daylight this morning. To-
day not a trace of the 10 inches of
snow that fell week ago is visible and
the weather is typical of April, with
occasional light showers falling at in

Southern Pacific Trains Delayed
Several washouts were reported on
the Southern Pacific this morning, the
most severe being at Tule, few miles
east Of Winnemucca. All trains passed
in safety, until belated No. 5 discov-
cred the damage at an early hour this
morning. A work train was summoned
from Inlay and shortly after the noon
hour had the track again in shape,
when both trains started for this sta
tion. At the east end of the Winnie
mucca yards another small washout
was discovered, which was disposed of
in about Is minutes, when the trains
pulled into the station. Agent Born
had been notified of third washout at
Rose Creek, and No. 5, when it pulled
out of the station, was preceded by the
work train. 1t was thought that the
damage would be repaired in about 30
minutes.

RUSHING REPAIRS ON
THE SALT LAKE ROUTE

Vita a small army of construction
lists and engineers at work repairing
the damaged line of the Salt Lake
Route in the Meadow valley wash, the
task of placing the road in normal
operating condition still goes on, and
the officials of the company report
steady progress under favorable weath'
er conditions.
Those portions of the track that
were submerged by the floods are now
clear, and the water has receded rapid
ly, while the workmen are now busy
repairing the last washout. Assistant
General Passenger Agent Joseph IL.
Manderfeld received a report late last
night to the effect that through service
will in all probability be established
again this evening. Yesterday and to-
day passengers have been transferred
over the Southern Pacific but many,
confident that the Salt Lake Route
would be in full operation by tomor-
row at the outside, are stopping over
in this city.
Engineers and workmen are return
ing in bands to their work on the high
line. When the resent trouble is fully
overcome, all hands will be set at
work on the new line, which will be
rushed to completion. The high line
is expected to be in operation within
forty days, and the long standing
question of washouts and floods in the
Neadw valley basin will then have
been permanently settled.--Herald Re-
publican.

TO PRESERVE THE
ANTELOPE SPECIES
Especial to the Silver State.)


WASHINGTON, Jan. 3l.-Game
Warden Rush, of the Wichita game ref
uge in the state of Oklahoma, has in
formed the department of agriculture
of the receipt in good condition Of
eight head of antelope, which came
from the national herd in the Yellow
stone park. Through the generosity of
members of the Boone and Crockett
club of New York, funds were fur
nished for capturing and transporting
these animals from Wyoming to Okla
homa. The news of the arrival of the
antelope at their destination has been
received with satisfaction by the de-
partment officials, who are much in
terested in the attempt to preserve this
interesting game animal.
The pronghorned antelope is unlike
any other antelope on the face OF the
earth, and has so many peculiarities
that naturalists class it in family by
itself. Formerly existing by thous-
ands on our open western plains, 1T has
now been so reduced in numbers that
its absolute extinction is certain in the
very near future unless protection is
given to the few remaining. 1t does
not do we'll east of the Mississippi riv-
er. and cannot be successfully bred in
captivity; but it thrives if allowed to
roam practically free within large en-
closures and under conditions closely
approaching the natural ones.
