Some Happenings
Down the Valley
(Record- Courier

L. Fl. Taylor was an arrival ti1i>

veys of land belonging to the Dang
berg company and which is to be
subdivided
A little Indian boy was killed by a
mountain lion in Smith valley last
week. The child wandered away
from camp and found lioness and
her cub. With a companion, the liz
tie fellow began throwing rocks al
the pair, not realizing the danger
when the mother lion pounced upon
him and crushed him to death
A lighted candle left burning in the
saloon at the Mountain House Sun
day morning while the men went to
breakfast, burned out of the miners
candlestick and set fire to the build
ing When the fire was discovered it
had gained such headway that it was
beyond control of the limited meth
DDS at hand for fighting it. The
building, together with the bar fix
lures and stock of liquors and cigars
was totally destroyed.
Seldom day passes that COM
plant is not heard because of the
postal departments attitude in dis
continuing the mail stage between
Gardnerville and points in Mono
county and Smith valley. Travellers
arrive on the train expecting to take
the stage to Bridgeport, Wellington
or other southern points. only to find
after their arrival here that the stage
line has been discontinued. Mail fa-
cilIies between Gardnerville and
Wellington, a distance of thirty
miles, are such that it requires three
days for mail to reach the latter
place.

Fails In His Work
as per Instructions

Through the oOstinacy of d. w.
building of the ishway at the Derby
dam on the Truckee river, and who
is now working irrespective of plans.
there is a possibility that work on
that enterprise will be discontinued
within the next few days.
When construction of the fshway
began few months ago it was to be
done under plans presented by the
Nevada and California Fish commits
sions and approved by Franklin K.
Lane of the Interior department.
Cole was placed in charge of the
work and for while implicitly obey
ed instructions. Later, however, he
continued operations without regard
to instructions or anything else anil
arbitrarily shortened the ladder way
by cutting off approximately forty
feet. Word to this effect was carried
to the officials of the Fish commits
sions of the two states interested.
and after an examination and sug-
gestion to Mr.. Cole that he proceed
on the lines favored by the govern
ment, and which he failed to do, the
members of the commission reported
the dereliction to Washington.
1t is now up to the latter to take
a harId in the matter, and it is ex-
pected that Cole will either be direct
ed to follow original Specifications
or work will be declared off till a
man can be secured who will follow
instructions.
