Jack and Will Ward and J. p Barclay
went to Reno last Saturday to spend
Christmas. That is, they started on
Saturday, but they did not reach Reno
until Sunday evening about O'Clock

they walked They travelled by auto
mobile and short distance this side OF
Churchill Canyon they had to hustle
water for a leaky radiator. About ten
miles this side of Dayton thev ran out of
gasoline and Ward went over to the rail-
road and tagged a handcar, went to
Dayton and procured the necessary fuel
and came back on the morning train to
where the machine was. A new start

Nashville Students and they will tell YOU
they never visited any other class of en-

the Nashville Students stand alone as
the greatest opponents of mirth in the

Well No. 2, being driven for the city
water works, is now down $50 feet and
is in nice strata of water at that depth.
The water is pure and clear and just a
little warm. A small pump has been
used to test the flow, and 80 gallons a
minute, all the pump will handle. does
not phase the flow a particle after il
pulls it down to about 20 feet below the
surface. The first we'll, down lis feet,
has the same capacity i'll a different
strata of water. Next week large pump
capable of handling 200 gallons per
minute, will be hooked onto both wells
to see what kind of pumping they will
stand for Mr.. Clark, the driller, be-
lieves that each well will produce from
50 to 90 gallons per minute. If this is
the case two more wells, of the same
capacity as those already driven, will
furnish the water required for the sys
TEN. Everything is i'll readiness to rush
the sytem along as soon as the required
flow of water is assured.

The first of the year is a good time to
settle all accounts of Indebtedness if it
can be done. There are many subscrip-
tons due the TINES, and if YOU get a
statement of your account in few days
do not throw it i'll the waste basket, but
write out little check and mail it to
the editor for a new year present. The
law regarding the sending of papers has
been changed, recently, so that pub
Usher cannot send paper to subscrib-
ers who do not pay, only for certain
length of time. We desire to have every
resident of the county subscriber, but
those who do not pay within few weeks
after receiving their account will be
dropped from our subscription list, as
the law requires

SAN SEBASTIAN, Spain, May 20
Attacked by giant eagle while sail
ing on the last leg of the Paris to
Madrid aeroplane race, Nj. Gilbert had
to use his revolver to kill the bird to
prevent having his eyes put out and
lost control of his aeroplane which
was nearly wrecked.
The whirr of the propeller did not
frighten the great bird which swoop-
ed down upon the aviator from a
crag on the mountain side. Gilbert
tried to scare the bird away with
shouts but these had no effect and the
eagle circled above his head and made
several attempts to reach his eyes.
Finally, the conquest became 81
fierce that Gilbert had to draw his re.
volver and shoot the bird. In taking
his hand from the lever in order to
shoot. the aeroplane made dip and
was almost wrecked The first shot
missed the bird which only became
more infuriated and the second bullet
fired at close range. sent the bird
crashing to the ground, two hundred
feet below
Had the aviator not been armed, he
would have no doubt been killed.
There arc only three contestants
now left in the race
