Have Exciting Experience.


Otto Hussman, who has wintr.
e6 on the Rubieon river ten miles
from McKinney's, taking measure
ments for an electric power COM
pany, writes to his brother George
that several exciting experiences
occurred during their stay there.
At one time when the sn, "
measured nine feet on the level
heavy rain followed and the
boys were awakened in the night
to find the water almost up to
their beds. They spent the rest of
the night diggingla trench through
the snow to drain off the water.
During a heavy an unexpected
snowstorm, one of his companions
was lost while returning from a
trip to McKinney's on snowshoes
and when found was completely
exhausted. 1t required all their
skill to revive him.
When his work for the company
is completed, Otto expects to take
a trip East.

DOUGLAS COUNTY
MAY GET STATE
FARM.

Senator Mack has introduced a
bill in the senate which calls for
the establishment of an expert
mental farm in Douglas county,
and lit is quite probable that il
will become law. Tne bill calls
for an appropriation OF $4,000 for
buildings and equipment while the
land and water rights must be pro-
vided by those of this county.
Carson Valley offers splendid
and unexcelled conditions for
carrying on experiments in agri-
culture. Since this is strictly an
agricultural county it would seem
that the establishment of such a
farm b re would be welcomed by
those who are interested in the
higher knowledge of agriculture.

THE SMITH VALLEY
IRRIGATION
Scheme.

Last fall the -anchers of Smith
Valley banded together with the
idea of forming an irriga ion com
plny that will benefit the entire
Valley from the head waters to the
lower end of Mason Valley. 1t is
the first time in the history Of the
section that it has been possible
for the entire community TO get to-
! gether on the proposition and go
at it as one.
1t is proposed to build one, if
not more, large reservoirs that will
furnish plenty of water during the
dry season. In order to carry out
the plans that have been formu-
lated during the winter it is neces-
sary to receive the approval OF the
State Engineer.
At the present time the State
Engineer has submitted bill to
the Legislature that covers all
such grounds and many other
items in connection with such
undertakings. One such plan is
being handled in Humboldt county,
another project in Elko and a
third near Ely. 1t will mean the
reclamation of thousands of acres
of land that is now lying idle.
This scheme is but one of score
that will follow under the new law
should it be adopted as framed by
the State Engineer. In the Well
ington section it is figured that the
new land to be placed under ir-
rigation at least $50 families can
secure homes, which means a con-
siderable population in that sec
tion. The other reclamation
schemes are as large and should
result in at least an added popula-
ton of at least 10000 people in the
next ten years from such sources
alone. 1t is this kind of work that
is going to make Nevada the great
est State in the west.-Appeal.

Friday Night by the Local High
School Boys, Who Showed Class
In an Exciting Game.

Last Friday evening the basket
ball team of the Douglas high
school won their first victory and
defeated the Reno team by a score
of ii to 81.
Spectators occupied every avail
able space in Valhalla hall not
utilized by the players, and when
the game was called every one was
on keen edge, hoping that by some
chance that the local lads would
win. The game was not many
minutes old, however, when the
visitors from Reno found that they
were matched against we'll
coached team. When the home
boys, by their clever work, showed
that they had an even chance OF
winning the game, the audience
went wild and The cheering was
enthusiastic. The first half ended
with honors about even, the score
being Is to Il in favor of the home
team. The second half started off
with vim, both teams lie ny de-
termined to carry off the honors if
fast playing counted for anything.
By their clever team work and
accuracy in passing the ball the
locals gained steadily on their
opponents, del. atlng them 10y ten
points. During the Z ,me both
teams made spectacular plays and
the ability of the individual player
was recognized by the audience by
dsafening applause
While all OF the members OF the
local team played a remarkable
game, much of their success can be
attributed 10 the excellent work oil
their center, George Hrnnlngsen.
Several other games Will be
played here during the season.

BAD CHECK
man IN JAIL
F. Preston Writes Check on Minden
Bank for $I7.75 Without Having
an Account. Arrested In Car.
son: will have Hearing Today.

A bogus check artist named Fred
A. Preston was arrested in Carson
Tuesdary on Q warrant sworn to
by Henry Kane, Of the Kane Drug
company and was brought back to
Gardnsrville Wednesday by Con-
stable Bsrning. Preston gave Mr..
Kane u check on the Farmers
Bank of Carson Valley of Minden
for $17.75 and later it was found
that Preston had no account at tho
bank.
Preston has been working in the
Valley for some months past and
lately at the sheep ranch for the
Wyatt brothers, whs first caused
his arrest at Carson Tuesday but
withdrew their complaint later.
1t was here that Mr.. Kane got
his first intimation that he had
been defrauded which investigation
proved to be correct.
Mr.. Kane was not the only one
in town that was duped by Preston
and his ready check book. How
ever, those who did get stung have
has their losses covered by friends
who have como to Preston's aid
and hush things up. Wednesday
after the prisoner was landed in
the Gardnerville Jail, his friends
endeavored to adjust matter, with
Mr.. Kane. but since the check had
been turned over to the Jusice
Court, no adjustment was made.
Preston has lead gay life dur
ing the past few months and has
spent his money freely. He haa
been a good fellow and his present
incarnation is the usual ending.
He will be given his preliminary
hearing this afternoon in the
Justice Court.

"Parson, said the cowboy, you'll

and he knocked the parsons hat
off and hit him a whack on the
ear. The old athletic spirit arose
the science of 25 years ago was
aroused. A blow landed on the
jaw OF the cowboy that sent him to
the street. The parson walked
over, picked him up and busted
the side of the house with him.
As the ambulance was carrying
the cowboy off, he raised his head
feebly and said:
"Parson what did you fool me
for you are chuck full of fun"

Tuesday morning a telephone
message was received in Gardner

had been murdered at an Indian

ranch. Coroner Krummes made
arrangements TO hold an inquest

Henry's mahalla had been hit in

the in jury was a dangerous one,
the injured woman will probably
recover.
Dickie Henry is a half brother
of Lcttie Kaiser, the half-breed

years ago, he having been hanged
for his crime. According to the
story told by the Indians Dickie

After the blow had been struck and
the bleeding woman at his feet, he
evidently believed he had murder

The squaw regained consciousness
and started for her mothers camp
a half mile away. Weak from the
loss of blood she staggered on and
fell in q swoom at her mothers feet
before she could tell who hit her.
They believed her to be dead and
notified the officers accordingly.
Sheriff Arid assisted by his

and late Wednesday afternoon
they found their man at an Indian
