DAILY SHORT STORY
Venus and Adonis.

Two advertisements there were,
one above the other, in "The Hy-
meneal Messenger and Matri-
monial Guide"-snug, enticing,
suggestive of bliss:
"Comely, amiable, intelligent
widow, owning large, well-stock-
ed, fertile farm, desires to marry
eligible bachelor. Must have
means of his own, be reasonably
good-looking and competent to
assume the responsibilities of
managing large estate. Address
Venus, care this paper"
Handsome, sturdy bachelor
of rare attainments and good
income would wed with refined
lady of middle age. Address
Adonis."
Then Venus wrote to Adonis,
and thus the kindly Messenger
and Guide set two lonely souls
upon the ciose-lined pathway.
The letters of Adonis were pom
derous epistles filled with unut-
terable learning. The letters of
Venus were gentler, beautifully
worded missives, breathing deli
cate sentiment and wonderous
possibilities of loving. If you
could read through the pages of
"The Standard Letter Writer and
Ladies Book of Etiquet," it is
possible you might find letter aft
er letter, word for word, like
Venus wrote to Adonis because
she loved him so.
The outcome of it all, of course,
was that the Golden Gate express
pulled into GlIrlnison Junction in

That the State Highway Commits

routes between Placerville and Sac

ward system is made evident by the
fact that the Commission Eas a par

There have been various reports
that the surveyors were employed by
the Highway Commission but it was
not definitely learned that this was
so. One surveyor representing the
Safe Highway Commission, has
started a survey Of the road between

OF the inability of TAFT supporters to
vote for Taft electors in this state,
would make the contest extremely

THE TURKS
ASK PEACE

Dispatches state that the Turks
are asking for peace. For the past
week the Greeks have been inhictins
tremendous losses on the Turkish
forces with the result that the army
of the Sultan is disorganized and he
is seeking peace as the only way out
of the trouble. From appearances
the fight which promised to be a
long one, will be settled within
short time. Between the walloping

'ARTES|AN
WELL IS
DEVELOPED.
Big Flow is Struck
Near WabuSka

Some months ago T. p Clark, the
for John Feeney of Wabuska, with
the object of getting an artesian
flow. Several stratas were encoun-
tered that gave a small flow, but not
the quantity desired, and the we'll
was continued on down to a depth
'of a little over 700 feet. At this
depth flow of over 100 gallons of
water per minute was obtained, and
this has increased so that at the pres
ent time the flow is about l30 gal
Ions per minute. The we'll was driv-
en- on a piece of ranch property
owned by Mr.. Feeney a short dis
tance south of Wabuska The
amount Of water now coming from
the we'll is sufficient to irrigate this
tract nicely.
1t has been the contention of the
writer that an artesian water can be
found at almost any point in this
valley, and this we'll, with the 9th
ers previously drilled in the neigh
borhood, prove this theory to be
correct T. is strange that greater
efforts have not been made to secure
artesian water in this central and
southern portion of the valley. Ev-
Ell if an artesian flow was not OBJ
tanned we'll that would stand for
heavy pumping could be secured, and
with electric power in the district
the pumping could be done at min
imum cost. A 40 or an S0-acre
ranch with a good pump irrigation
system will some day be of more
value in this valley than thousand
acres of land with the present uncer-
tain method of rigation.-Yering-
