J. z. Snyder, one of the six National
Socislistic lecturers, will speak at
Clark's pavilion Thursday evening.
This man is a talented exponent of
Socialism and all interested In this
movement should avail themselves of
this opportunity to hear him.
George Hunter, a teamster, who had
made his home in this section for near-
ly ten years past, died last Wednesday
after a short illness of pneumonia. No
relatives were left whose address was
known, and Thursday the remains were
buried in the potter's field by E. w.
Black, who has the county pauper buri-
al contract. John Wheeler took the
initiative in giving the deceased de-
cent burial and the remains were re-
Inferred In the Fallon cemetery, friends
of the deceased having subscribed lib
orally towards defraying the consequent
expense.
Price Cochran, of Lawen, Harvey
county, Oregon, arrived in Fallon the
last of the week with few horses,
which were the remnants of large
band started from the Oregon country.
Mr.. Cochran encountered so much bad
weather en- route that he sold pract-
ically all his horses, but five remain
ing unsold on his arrival here. He
wishes to apologize to the public for
advertising his advent here with a
large band and not complying with the
pre-arrival promises, as it was imposs-
ible to do so. Fred Waidley acted as
Mr.. Cochran's selling agent and had
g .Ataraf tho N her
that were brought here. However, Mr..
Cochran may return at later date
this season with fine bunch Of Oregon
bunchgrass horses for disposal to local
people.
John Nelson, the Saltwater Alpine
Stage driver, was in Fallon the last OF
the week and with his appearance in
town, came story by County Commits
sioner C. P. Cirac about Peterson
euuanimity. Recently he was driving
his stage horses along in an easy Jog
down the long grade leading into Still
water. BY his side sat George Baker,
his only passenger. Sleep had over
come Baker, who snored loudly and
unbrokenly as milestone after mile
stone was passed. Peterson took a
few pulls at the snoring stunt. drop.
ped his lines and the horses became
unmanageable and started at a break
neck speed down the grade. Awaken
ing first, Peterson took in the situa-
tion at glance, and shaking Baker
to rouse him said slowly and with his
usual drawl and broken accent
George, you better wake up, or you
will loose your ride.

Twas the Other Fellow.

The item published in this paper last
week relative to the wrongdoings Of a
New York Life insurance company
agent was somewhat misleading, mas
much as C. J. Klintgaard, the regular
agent of the company covering this
territory has been mistaken for the
individual in question. The fellow who
fell from the water wagon into the
thorny bushes that line the primrose
path is one C. B. Wager, fluent talker
and prolific writer of insurance, who has
since been dismissed by the company,
the last offense being an objectionable
one, inasmuch as he had been given
opportunity after opportunity to do
right, owing to his unusual tall
ents. Mr.. Klintgaard is temperate
young man and never drinks anything
stronger than an occasional glass Of
German soda water.

The county commissioners met Sat-
urday in extra session. A petition
from residents in the Saltwater neigh

Idaho. Utah and Nevada Telephone
Company, contract to be drawn up
for the boards consideration at the
next monthly meeting.

the spread of contagious diseases was
raised. all danger of further spread of
the disease seemed to have passed.

fashion once more.

townsite, property that had reverted to
the county for non-payment OF taxes.
Buyers have appeared for these lots
and to comply with the law it will be
necessary to go through this formality.

The greatest depth of snow ever re-
corded in project history was measured
the last OF the week on the summit of
the Sierra Nevada mountains. The
total depth at the time of making the
measurement was rs feet and four
inches and insures bountiful supply of
water for all irrigation purposes in this
valley throughout the present season.
A flood is not anticipated, although it
is a possibility, according to project of.
ficials. II is stated that should the
runoff be steady and not unduly influ-
enced by warm rains or chinook winds,
the present channel of Old river will
undoubtedly carry the water to lower
sink without any trouble. On the other
hand, II weather conditions similar to
those of four years ago prevail, Fallon-
ties may look for high ground for tenn
porary lodgings, as it is doubtful if the
Old river channel would suffice to handle
the food that would follow.

SEATTLE, March 11.-The grand jury in session here which has had un- der investigation for the past two days Charles Hillman, brought in thirteen indictments against the millionaire last night, all of which constitute a felony. The total Imprisonment for the counts against him would amount to sixty five years.
 When word was received last even ing that the grand jury were ready to report a crowd was at the coarthoGse to hear their verdict for ali day long speculation has tccn going on as to whether the millionaire would be cgaght in the trap this time. for he has escaped time and again during his career here in Seattle.

BUSINESS OF BEING A WOMAN.

The business OF being n woman"
Is a phrase that occurs often in the
opening article OF the series that Miss
Ida NJ. Tarbell is writing for the
American magazine. 1t Is entitled
THE Uneasy Woman" and It empha.
sizes the depth of the discomfort that
today Is coincident with woman's
growing emancipation.
The business OF being a woman, nc.
cording to Miss Tarbell. is the making
of a home, (which means a mate, chill
dren. friends. with all the radiating
obligations, Joys, burdens, those rela'
tions imply" The uneasy woman"
says the writer, believes that the time
has come for her TO enter mans world
and prove her equality.
.For the narrow life Of the family
she will escape TO the triumph and ex-
element of a career" says Miss Tar
bell. eThe business OF being a wo-
man becomes something TO be
ashamed of, TO be apologized for. All
over the land there are women with
children apologizing for never having
done anything. Women whose days
have been spent in trade and profes.
sions complacently congratulate them.
solves that they at least have lived"
Now, have they? The question
which women who are striving for a
mans career must answer is whether
what they will gain is worth what they
are likely to lose. In short. the adj.
yantages OF their present position
must be weighed with those they
seek. Can they have both? II they
cannot, which Is more worth while?
