Hlah-cIass Samoan Dialect.

Robert Louis Stevenson described
amusingly how the Samoan noble had
private dialect of his own, quite dis
tinct from the common peoples. The
ordinary words for an OK, blood, BAN

oven were taboo in MOBILES presence
And the noble had special words of
his own for his leg face. hair. belly,

An Astonished Bow.

In February of this year a Wiscon-
sin farmer took his twelve-year-old boy
to village for the first time, and
there the lad saw train of cars. He
was so astonished at the sight that he
lost the power of speech for three
weeks.

circus or geological garden he'll
surely be struck dumb for the rest OF
his life His fathers farm must be

His Little Life.
The aerial life OF the cicada Is
short In the latter half of May they
begin TO appear. and by the third
week of June they begin to die off.
In July they are all gone as suddenly
as they came. The female deposits
her eggs in Sits made in small
branches: then she dies. II is all
over in less than six weeks of life in
the early summer, after seventeen
years preparation.
Then, a month or so after IL is
laid, the ant-like larva matches from
the egg. 1t escapes from the slit in
the branch of the tree or shrub and
falls lightly to the ground, for it is
only a feather weight. Next, it bur
rows down few inches, or even sew
eral feet, into the earth and makes a
minute subterranean chamber for it.
self over n rootlet. 1t is only one
sixteenth of an inch long, yellowlsh-
white.
The Damage He Doe8.
The danger is in the laying OF the
eggs. The female has a sort of Dor
ing apparatus, or "ovipositor." She
literally saws a slit in a young branch
and there deposits double row of a
dozen or so little white eggs about
one-twelfth inch in diameter. Then
she starts somewhere else to repeat
the process, depositing in all four hun
dred to six hundred eggs.
Mostly fruit trees, oak, hickory and
forest trees in general suffer- but al
most never the pine.
After the damage is done, the best
course is to prune off the most dam
aged twigs the next season, so that
the tree can concentrate it's strength
on the less damaged branches. In
this way, and by deferring planting
until the year after the cicadas visit,
much injury and loss can be avoided.

LOvfLOCK vs.. WIN
NEMUCCA SUNDAY

The Winnemucca baseball fans are
looking farward to tomorrow 8 game
between the local team and the Love
lock ball tossers with the utmost con
fdence, and feel sure of being able to
duplicate the victory of two weeks
ago. Everything possible has been
done to strengthen the locals by the
addition of number of veterans to
the team and having tn eboys out for
daily practice. Those in charge are
well pleased with the Improvement
shown in the past few days.
The efforts to secure Larry Gafney,
who did such good work in the games
played during the carnival last year,
have been successful. He came down
from National yesterday and will
pitch in tomorrow game. While ap-
parently somewhat heavier than when
he left here, he looks as though he
were in frst-class condition and should
give good account of himself. Kren-
kel's finger, which was pretty badly
bruised in a recent practice game, is
so far on the mend to to insure his
being in the game. Harry Bonnifield
will be an absentee, having been call
ed out of town today on official bust
ness
Unless something unforeseen hap
pens the lineup of the Winnemucca
team will be as follows:
Larry Gafney, pitcher; George Maa
sen, catcher; F. c. Krenkel, first base;
Dave Connevey, second base; Vic
Giroux, short stop: "Si' Perkins,
third base; Otto Diehl, right field;
Oscar Reinhart, center field; D. Bid
well, left field.
Owing to the heavy expense incur
red in bringing the Lovelock boys up
here and providing for them while in
the town, it has been decided to charge
an admission fee of fifty cents, which
will be collected on the grounds.
Interest has in no way abated in the
game to be played week from tomor-
row between two picked teams and
considerable money is being waged on
the result. Gafney will stay over and
will pitch for the challenging team,
which is managed by Oscar Reinhart.

JACOB LEICK ATTAINS DISTINC-
TION IN "HAWKSHAW' ROLE

When Jacob Leick took up the stage
business for a profession, he evidently
missed his calling, for events of the
past few days have demonstrated the
fact that he is detective of ability.
On Thursday f. G. Riley, cook who
had been working at Barrett Springs
and Rexall, gave Leick a check for
$12.25, in payment of a small BILL re-
ceived the balance in money. Upon
his return to town in the afternoon
Leick found out that the check was a
forgery, and securing his pistol start
ed out to find his man. Late in the
evening Riley was discovered sleeping
off "jag' in the willows in the
western part of town, near the river,
when he was marched in by his victim
and turned over to Constable Moore.
To the congratulations of his friends
over his capture, Mr. Leick remarked: !:
''When / once go after a man | al
vays get him.
