Mr.. Won invalid. Haven't you any
apology to make, sir?"
Neither apology nor explanation to
YOU" Mr.. Pierce retorted. And to the
other: at is an unfortunate accident
incident if you prefer" He looked
at Thoburn, who was the only one IN
bathrobe, and who was the only cheer
full one in. the lot. 81 had refused a
request of the bath mans and he has
taken this form of revenge. If this

you to stay I'll not do it. / don't mind
saying that l am as tired of ell this

on new order of things for this place
anyhow. It's going to be real health

well or keep well. People who wish
to be overfed, Oyerheated and coddled

The bishop spoke over the heads OF
the others, who looked dazed.
Does that mean" he inquired mild
". "that-guests must either obey this
order of things or go away"
Mr.. Pierce looked at the bishop and
smiled.
"Pm sorry. sir" he said, "but as
every one is leaving, anyhow"
They fairly jumped at him then.
They surrounded him in a bowling
mob and demanded how he dared to
turn them out, and what did he mean

would leave when they were good and
ready and not before, and he could go
TO blazes. It was the most scandalous
thing I've. ever known of at Hope
Springs, and in the midst of it Mr..
Pierce stood cool and quiet, waiting
for a chance to speak. And when the
time came he jumped in and told them
tho truth about themselves, and most
of it hurt. He was good and mad, and
he stood there and picked out the fab

liveps and the tobacco hearts and the
banquet stomachs, and called them out
by name. He got through and stood
looking at them in their sheets, and
then he said coolly:

nobody was in sight. l was on my

out the fire, when / heard the door
close behind me, and when I turned,
there stood Mr.. Dick, muffied to the
neck, with his hat almost over his

What the deuce kept you so late
this morning?" he demanded, in a
sulky voice, and limping over 20

SPIRIT IN PROMOTING FRUIT
INDUSTRY

Mark Thompson. superintendent OF
the southern division OF Wells Fargo,
VAS the guest yesterday of Thomas
f. Dwyer, the local agent Mr.
Thompson was engaged in getting ac-
qusinted with this territory but couG
not deS ole as much time as he want
ed 10 In the task OF sitting the de
msnds OF local concerns He had to
return to the southern country for
orange Day" but he said he would
arrange his affairs 10 the end that
he could spend the better part OF a
week in 1onopah before very long.
Orange Day Is for the purpose OF
promoting the consumption ana de
mand for citrus fruits and our com.
pany has offered the growers every
facility In our power u make the
day success All our teams have
been placed at the disposal OF ship
pers, regardless of the fact whether
the fruit Is to be handled by freight
or express Even storage facilities
and warehouse accommodations have
been granted growers and the entire
State Will rise as one man next Sat
urday to celebrate a business event
that promises 10 add vastly To the
demand for the products Of all the
California orchards
This is the way MIR Thompson pic
iured the gettogether spirit of the
southern planters and he was enthu-
siastic over the prospects of develop
Ing the industry 10 a scale of mag
nificenee never before contemplated.
Before leaving Los Angeles" Mr.
Thompson continued, we had begun
preparations for handling the aspara
gus crop The first ear left imperial
valley today and we expect TO han
die not less than 30 cars by express
The cantaloupe crop Is better than
ever before and. II is estimated that
there will be not less than 5000 cars
shipped from Imperial valley alone
This is a class of traffic that means
much for the valley and the express
company will probably take care OF
about 125 carloads.
We are going to take up the mat
ter of developing the vegetable and
truck industry OF southern Nevada
as we feel there is great opportu
nifty ia that quarter for developing a
large business with Tonopah and
Goldtield The Tonopah a Tidewatei
railroad has arranged TO install eX
pertinent stations al Ash Meadows
and next year we expect to lind large
results from this thoughtful invest
ment. The soils and climate are ia
yorable to the production of semi
tropical products and early vegetables
and Wells Fargo will see that rate
are made 10 move the crops to th'
consumer
