NOTHING LIKE THIS
IN OLD ENGLAND.

Much amusement was created
among the Hoosier tourists OF the
Indiana TO the coast party, at the
views expressed by c. A. Branston, a
prominent member of the Institute
of Automobile Engineers and Royal
Auto Club of London, England. who
is travelling with the party in one OF
the Haynes cars.
Having journeyed through the
Mormon territory in Utah and visited
Salt Lake City. Branston had evident
" settled it in his mind that a good
ly portion of the American race was
favorably inclined toward multiplicity
of helpmates. On his arrival at
Reno he was astonished beyond mea-
sure to learn of its reputation for
~severing the holy bonds of matri-
mony.

TROUT FRY RECEIVED
At STATE UNIVERSITY

Five thousand fry of approved
varieties were received Monday in
three milk cans at the University of
Nevada and were liberated in the
waters of the university pond to
grow up and furnish fishing for
members of the faculty and their
friends.
Rainbow trout, eastern brook
trout, black spotted trout and a
cross between black spotted and east
ern brook were among the number.
They were like a black cloud in the
water at first, darting around in
circles as though at a less where to
go. Later they spread put and dis
appeared. A fine mesh screen has
been placed over the inlet of the lake.
1t is likely that, until the trout get
large, which will be in a short time,
they will remain in the shallow va
ter at the head of the pond. An EN-
ploye of the state fish hatchery at
Verdi who brought the trout down
said that conditions were good in the
lake and the fish should find plenty
of food and grow more rapidly than
at the hatchery.

COLONIZATION SCHEME
PROVES SUCCESSFUL.

The colonization project in Ruby
Valley that was started last spring by
Taylor Brothers of Salt Lake City, is
receiving considerable attention by
the people of this section. as this is
the first of its kind where a number
of large ranches were bought up by
capitalists and divided up into small
Ter holdings, SAYS the Elko Free
Press. The Free Press is in receipt
of a letter from the company, who
state that they have made many sales
and thus far everything indicates
that in another year all the lands will
be sold and the project put on a pay
ing basis. Over 5000 acres have al
ready been sold and many of the
settlers are busy breaking up the raw
land for next years crops.
Some of the settlers who are al
ready on the land with their families
are: L. J.. Willis, A. Y. Taylor,
SHdIicS n. Nci1ns n. w. olCiu, IOuiS
A. Meeks, John j. WEIGH, Jesse l..
Smith, Alma P. Stark, John Paul,
John F. Beck, B. F. Woodward, Ions
dale Allen and Otto A. Payzant.
A splendid MOTEL has been erected
but the majority of the settlers are
living in tents ard as soon as lumber
can be brought in the homes will be
built.
The company is confident that the
entire project will be sold inside of
the year and that Ruby Valley will
become one of the best settled valleys
in the state. The climate is mild and
q crop failure is practically unknown.
There is an abundance of water and
many thousands of acres of govern
ment land is open to the incoming
settlers aside from the land owned by
the company.

in the deal, upon which he has been
working for some time.
The work of dismantling the big
plant is to be started at once and
will not be completed for several
months. Included in the sale were a
thirty-ton sampling mill, hardly used
at all, and a complete f~ive-stamp
quartz mill which was never set up.
These will be sold at but a fraction
of their cost, together with a million
feet Of lumber, two million brick. one
hundred tons of corrugated iron,
seventeen railroad ore cars and an
enormous amount OF mining and
milling machinery. This sale offers
a wonderful opportunity for the pur-
chase of cheap building material and
milling machinery.
The sale of the plant is the out
come of a recent shake-up, following
an investigation of the affairs of the
Glasgow & Western by the Scotch
and English capitalists who have
been putting up money for years
without seeming to have an idea or
care as to how it was being expend-
ed. 1t is said the investigation show
ed that there had been gross mis-
management of the eompany's affairs
by the chief representatives in the
United States. In figuring up the
company's assets the Golconda plant,
which has been idle for years and was
never run except spasmondieally.

sHEEPHERDER's CAMP BURNED.

A tent and two months supplies
at one of A. C. Florio's sheepherder's
camps in the Diamond range of
mountains, about nine miles north
east of Eureka, was totally destroy
ed by fire last Sunday. 1t was at
first thought that lightning was the
cause of the fire, but investigation
showed that it had been set afire.
Some beans that had been left in
the tent were still smouldering
when the herder reached the camp,
but there were no signs of half a
ham which there should have been
some residue. A coat that had been
left hanging in a r some 80 feet
away from the tent had been thrown
into the fire and was nearly all con
sumed when found.

AUTOISTS NEARLY
SWEPT AWAY BY FLOOD.

Barely missing two heavy floods
resulting from a cloud-burst, John f.
Cowan, a Salt Lake mining man,
narrowly escaped death while making
a trip of inspection at his property in
Cottonwood canyon. near Loyelock,
Nevada. News of the adventure
reached the home of Mr.. Cowan in
Salt Lake, Monday.
Mr.. Cowan, with II. II. Hunter,
Karl Offers and Gus Benin of Love-
lock We're crossing the canyon when
they saw a heavy wall of water,
powders and debris sweeping down
the gulch. The machine was speed
ed up and they reached a point of
safety on the opposite side of the
canyon just as the flood swept by.
A few moments later and the entire
party would have been swept down
the canyon with the flood.
Further up the canyon the party
encountered a second flood and
reached a point of safety only by
driving the car up the mountainside.
Mr.. Hunter was out of the machine
when the second flood approached,
and climbed a tree in order to avoid
the flood. Rain fell in torrents and
the party aid not reach Lovelock
until 9 o'clock on the following
night.

Off To ARCTIC To
CATCH BOWHEAD
Roy Andrews, Whale Hunter,
10 Go In Search Of One.
NOT IN ANY COLLECTION.

American Museum of Natural History
In New York City DESTROYS of OBJ
tanning Specimen - Expedition Will
Go In Mr.. Borden's Schooner Yacht
Adventures, Starting About July 1.
Roy c. Andrews, a noted whale
hunter, who has captured many speci-
mems for the whale hall Of the Amer
lean Museum of Natural History in
New York city, has been making for
several months plans for a cruise in
the arctic regions in quest of the rare
bowhead whale, which If secured will
complete the museums valuable col
lection and thereby make 1t one Of the
greatest in the world.
Andrews, whose achievements in
hunting whales In the orient are re-
called by hunters of large game, has
been invited to join the hunting ex-
pedition organized by John G. Borden
Of Chicago, who plans to sail from San
Francisco in the schooner yacht Ad-
venturess, which is now en- route for
the Pacific coast by way of Cape Horn.
The Adventures is we'll equipped for
voyage to arctic seas. She was built
in Boothbay Harbor, Me-, with auxi-
iary power and carries bomb guns
for killing whales. The cabins are fft-
ted in mahogany The boat is equip
ped with electricity and has cold stor-
age plant.
Whale Hunting Fine Sport.
Although whale hunting affords sport
for Mr.. Borden, he also understands
the scientific value Of such an eXpedl-
ton, and for that reason he asked Roy
Andrews to join him on his voyage
with view to securing fine specimen
Of the bowhead monster for the mu-
scum. The bowhead whale Is the last
of large series desired by the muse
um, and, according to Mr.. Andrews, 1t
is greatly wished to get a specimen
now. y bOwhead Is not easy to secure.
Besides making especial efforts to get
bowhead whale, the party will spend
considerable time in pursuit of brown
and polar bears, walrus and caribou In
the haunts of big game in the far north.
For more than 1000 years the bow
head whale has been hunted" says Roy
Andrews, "but thus far no naturalist
has succeeded in getting "a complete
skeleton of one" So theAexplorer is
anticipating with keenest interest his
journey into the arctic in quest Of the
coveted bowhead.
The whale, II secured, will be towed
to the nearest barbor, on the shore Of
which the skeleton viii be prepared.
1t will be forwarded to Seattle by
coasting schooner and then shipped to
New York.
Expedition Fully Equipped.
The Adventures carries a fully
equipped New Bedford whaleboat and
is under command Of Captain Sparks,

town, MasA
There are now no bowhead skeletons
in this country, and but little Is known
concerning their anatomy. The mem
bers Of the museum staff are therefore
extremely appreciatfve Of Mr.. Borden's
offer to cooperate IN the expedition.
