PROF. YOUNG SCARED

While Professor Young of the
Nevada University, was visiting
the Lorena Oil district he had an
experience that he will not soon
forget.
The profcsor carries a sleeping
bag with him and any one who has
ever slept in one knows how help
less the occupant is after he rctires.
After supper and a chat around
the fire oil Eands retired. Now
the rig in which the professor and
the writer drove out to the dis
trict was accompanied by little
colt which possessed a very serious
turn of mind. and a pcnchant for
searching the camp for potato
Feelings and tin cans. Along
about midnight when fair Luna
was casting her silvcry light over
the desert solitude the prOftssorilet
out a hair raising yell that awokc
the camp and brought all hands
to the rescue.
An Investigation disclosed the
fact that the colt had quietly step.
ped its forefeet on each side of the
professors head and when he
awoke he was staring into the
eyes of the animal, which was
Investigating the camp. At first
the professor thought he had o
nightmare and was dreaming of
being crushed by the great
prehistoric monsters, whose re-
mains he had been exploring
during the day. The colt has
nearly recovered from the shock IL
received from the professors wild
yells. Western Nevada Miner.

GERMAN PAPERS TELL
OF OUR DIVORCE LAWS

Reno's reputation as a mecca
for divorce is no longer confined
to the narrow limits of our own
country but has become topic for
news .apers comment in the metro
politan cities of Europe. A citizen
of Reno recently received a copy
of the Berlin Zeitung forwarded to
him by relatives which contained
an interesting article on the
divorce laws of Nevada as viewed
by the Teutonic writer. While
some of the statements need blue
penciling the article is worth
perusal, a translation of which
follows:
1.-THE state of Nevada is a
much visited mecca for the Ameri-
can divirce-seeking pilgrim. The
most important ground for the
pilgrims to go to Nevada is that
they wish to DC freed quickly and
pairlessly from the one they are
fettered to at the present through
the influence of money and smooth
words. The golden time goes
comfortably toward their end even
though it is a costly game to be
freed in quick time.
"On the first of June a new
rigid law was passed that the
party to the divorce must remain
in residence for six mon tbs. The
well-to-do dvorce.seekers are

A KIND HARTED FRIEND

One morning last week a young
man who live in Geneseo said to
US: "A kind hearted FREED just
gave me pull out of full pint
bottle Of brandy, and if | had
another pull, ! don't lelieve J
could sec at all" The young man
in question holds respo nsble
position. and has just passed
through an experience which should
last him the rest Of his natural
life. Young man do not for one
moment believe that it was kind
hearted friend who gave you that
drink Of brandy. especially if he
k new anything about the ex-
perience which you have just
pa sscd through. If he knew, he
was simply wolf in sleeps cloth
ing. 1t will do no good for any
person to ask us what Young man
we refer to, because that remains
a secret with US. Young man,
our advice to you is, be careful.
and when you are careful, just be
careful some more. You know
better than we can tell you that
you would not pass through that
same experience again for all the
brandy in the world. but YOU
intimated to us that you were

fOS1ING NAMES or
DRINKS At LOVELOCK

The Tribune says that last
week Constable Wolf presented all
of the saloon keepers of Lovelock
with list of frequenters OF the
place to whom was forbidden to
sell or give any Intoxicating
liquors.
There has been some discussion
as to whether the persons whose
names were posted on order of
Constable Wolf can properly be
placed in the class designated in
the statute for the reason that
many of them are not members
of dependent families.
1t appears that a strict con-
struction of the statute will limit
such posting of names to those
who are members of families and
who, wh"n drunk are a menace to
the life health or peace of their
families or who fail to provide
the common necessarles of life for
those dependent upon them.
Single men, probably do not fall
under the class mentioned in the
statutes.
However, for the present, at
least, the Constable has certainly
put the Indian sign on number
of citizens and great is the wrath
over on the Main street. Hum

If the Wall Street journal is {,

If the Wall Street journal is to
be believed, the average Amerci-
can family can't have as many
wooden blankets as 1t had in 1860.
The Journal says that, on an
average each family buys only
half as many yards of wooden
blankets as, 1t bought fifty years
ago, The reason for this blanket
shortage is found in the fact that
the United States can't produce
much more than half the wool it
uses and the traif makes the price
too high for people to afford
blankets Of 80 expensive material
as wool. Hence they use
adulterated wool or cotton bank cts.
This is another place where the
tariff digs into the comforts OF
very average family in the land"
