After The Forest Fires.

Wallace, Idaho. is still suffer-
ing from the disastrous forest
fires of 1910, which burned over
the watershed that furnishes the
water supply of the city. This
basin included an area of 1000
acres and was formerly we'll tim
bered with trees from fifty to
two hundred years old. These
were destroyed by the fires OF
1910. The city used to get its
water supply not only for domes-
tic purposes, but also for the de-
velopment of electricity for power
and light from that watershed.
Before the fires the flow of the
stream, at it's lowest stages, was
never below 1000 miners inches.
Since the fire the records show
that the minimum flow has fall
len to about two hundred and
fifty miners inches. Each year
they have to get power from
steam and to use a considerable
part of this power i'll pumping
water. Records of the weather
bureau at Wallace show that the
precipitation for the years since
the fire has been about normal
for the region. This seems to
demonstrate that the unevenness
in the flow must be due to the
of the forest cover OF
the watershed and not to any
change in climate or precipita-
ton. The United States forest
service has undertaken to refor-
est the denuded watershed.

Meanest of All Mean Femininity-

Somebody writes in to ask what
sort of woman is Kundry, the heroine
of "Parsifal" rs she a good woman,
a bad woman, good bad woman or a
bad good woman?" The question was
referred to Mrs. Pozozzle. and she
says: Il would call her the worst OF
these-a bad good woman. This means
that she has the good woman's excei
lent opportunities for the doing OF
evil and that she makes the most OF,
them. A cynic would say that her
penitence is sham. When she goes
to bind up the wound of Amfortas, she
gets chance to impress the handsome
Parsifai, and-well, Kundry is bad
good woman. That explains the lady
as well as words may."-Kansas City

Natural Musician.

Sir Edgar Elgar, who is one of the
most interesting figures in the Eng

speaking musicians of the present day.
The celebrated composer has paid sew

F. A. HE|NzE DIED
A POOR MAN

f. Augustus HeinZe, who died in
Saratoga, New York, last night was
one of the foremost figures in the
financial circles of the United States.
Mr.. HeinZe acquired fortune of mil
lions of dollars in the west after going
to New York, lost a good part of it
in other ventures. For several years
he had been involved in litigation of
different kinds and at the time of his
death, his fortune was tied up until
there was only about $4,000 of it in
free state. His interests were large
ly in Montana and British Columbia
and in Montana he was once an I'M
portant figure in state politics.
Mr.. HeiZe was in Elko about two
months ago He came here and went
by auto to Contact and other places
in Elko county to examine some min
ing property which he would have
probably purchased, if he had not
been cut Off by death at this time. He
was highly pleased with the prospects
at Tuscarora and Contact and al
though when seen by reporters in
this city he refused to have anything
to say about the matter, it was gener-
ally thought that he intended to pur-
chase property in this county.
Mr. HeinZe was a comparatively
young man only AZ years old. His
death, due to cirosis OF the liver, oc-
Cured at the home of Judge Nash
lockwood, who is we'll remembered
in this city as he accompanied Mr..
Heinze on several trips.

NEW CITIZENS ARE
ARRIVING IN THE CITY

H. A. Talley, was seen down town
early this morning wearing an eX-
preston very much resembling that
of Joan Of Arc when she saw the an
gel, Michael. People stopped to stare
at him on every corner. His usually
jovial face was even more radiant
than ever. Everybody was asking
each other what the matter was.
Some guessed a distant and long for
gotten uncle had died and left him
a million dollars. Others said that
he must have bet on Boyle for COVER
nor and still others had different opin-
ions. Finally a friend stopped him
and cautiously broached the subject
to him. He was given a prompt re-
buff by the popular Postal lineman
however, who promptly told him not
to bother him. 1--WE got two of the
finest boys at my house you ever saw
and Pm hustling to the telegraph Of
fee to let the folks back home know
the good news. After he had been
run down and the rest of the infor-
nation pulled out of him with for
ceps, it was learned that the twins
were born at his house last night and
are two as lusty youngsters as were
ever seen. You can't reach Talley
with fish pole this morning and 1t
will probably be some weeks before
he will quit rejoicing long enough to
go back to work. Both mother and
children are in good condition.

BACKS OF INDIANS
PEPPERED BY SHOT

With shot in their backs and the
backs of their heads from an eighth
of an inch to half an inch deep, two
Indians walked into Sparks late yes
terday, reporting that a white man
whose name they thought was Lewis
had discharged shotgun at them.
They said he was riding in a buggy
and passed them as they were on their
way to Sparks from Pyramid Lake.
The shooting occurred in Spanish
Spring valley, about four miles out
from Sparks at about noon yesterday.
Frank Golden, a Sparks Indian, re-
ported the affair to Special agent C.
H. Asbury this morning. He gave the
names of the two injured Indians as
Harry B. Stevens and Doctor Sam.
Most of the shot were squeezed out
of the flesh and the Indians were said
not to be in serious condition.
This afternoon Frank Bryant, of
Sparks was arrested on suspicion of
being the man who shot the Indians.

NEVADA MEETS
STRONG TEAM

On Saturday at 2:3O O'Clock, the
University of Nevada football team
will meet another of the crack club
teams of the Pacific coast, the Titans
of Berkley, a team that has been
playing rugby football together for
seven years. AS the Berkeley high
school team, the Titans twice won the
championship of California. Many of
the players have since had experience
on big university teams and the back
field is said to be the strongest in
the game, except possibly that of
Stanford university.
Although so strong in the backfield
the Titans are said to be somewhat
weaker than the Olympics and other
club teams in the forward division
Back of the serum there are two 10
1-5 second men. Skinner, who played
fullback last year on California var
sity makes his hundred yards in that
fast time and Lazarr at wing, is equal
ly fast. The Forbes brothers were

In preparation for the contest, the
varsity was put through hard game
against the second team last night

Good Placer In Limerick

Placer mining in Limerick canyon in
the Rochester district is proving
quite profitable, according to James
Moss, who owns one of the claims.
He came in from camp this week with
$3.50 worth of dust in one bottle and
number of coarse nuggets in an
other. He says:
Owing to the scarcity of water, it
is impossible to handle the gravel
very economically, but 1 look for a
much greater yardage as sood as the
winters precipitation is available.
"The gold is found up and down
the canyon. The nuggets have not
travelled far and the crest of the
range is less than a mile from the up
per placers. The rose quartz in the
gold is a clew to the source of the
deposit, but it has not yet been found.
