CANADA'S LEADERS
Premier Borden and Sir Wilrrid
Laurier Differ as to Possible
Prevention.

of the Empress of Ireland evoked sym.
pathetic utterances in the House Oh
Commons to-day both from the re
mier and from the leader of the up
position. Mr.. Borden, in referring W
the appalling loss Of human life' saiu
he hoped that the report Of the nuinoer
OF lives lost was exaggerated. IL was
an accident, he said, that couid no'
have been prevented by any action
which the country could have taken 10
render navigation safe
Sir Wilfrid Laurier taking dluereht
view. said it was hard to understand
why an accident a few miles out couiu
not have been prevented and he urged
upon the government the necessity TOT
a thorough investigation into the loss
OF the steamship.
THE hand of fate has been heavy
against us during the last rev
months" he said. This is the third

Barn Dance Great Success.

The barn dance at Nordyke last
Saturday evening, postponed from the
evening before on account of the rain
storm, was great success. The af-
fair was given by the Woman's Club
of Yerington to raise funds for the
childrens' playground here, and Mrs.
]. |. Wilson was Chairman of the FL
nance Committee in charge of the af-
fair. There was large attendance
of people from Yerington, Thompson,
Ludwig and all parts of the valley.
The dance was in the mill warehouse
and the room was decorated with Chi
nese lanterns and green vines and
ferns, and the grounds outside were
likewise decorated Sandwiches, ci-
gars, ice-cream and punch were sold
and bean-bag game conducted, and
the receipts of the evening from all
sources were $l1846 The expenses
were $5485, which left net amount
of $63.6l to go to the playground
fund. This is a neat little sum and
will help out materially. The women
desire to extend thanks to Mr. c. c.
Emerson for the use of his piano, and
to all others who labored to make the
affair the success it was.

Would Make Fine Exhibit.

There is in the Nevada Douglas cop
per property a large deposit OF native
copper ore that will run anywhere
from SO to 95 per cent in the red
metal This deposit is so massive that
it is very hard to extract 1t needs
no smelling The company, we under
stand. has been contemplating the
proposition of making an exhibit of
this ore at the San Francisco fair next
year. If the idea is carried out there
will be enough of this ore shipped to
build a grotto in the Nevada building
1t would be unique thing as the ore
comes in big blocks, chunks, sheets,
bars and pigs. such as one can hardly
conceive of without seeing the deposit
in the mine and the labor it takes to
extract it.

NEVADA-DOUGLAS PROPERTY
LOOKING WELL.
More Development Work Now Going
on Than for Some Time Past.

A larger amount of development
work is now going on in all parts
oil, the Nevada Douglas property than
for long time past. The results are
fully up to expectations. The Casting
Copper is looking very well and more
ore is being opened up every day
Large reserves which will keep pro-
duction going for some time to come
are being put into shape and ship
ments of the usual amunt of ore are
being made to the smelter each week
The Ludwig portion of the property
is also looking prosperous these days
and a large amount of reserve ore is
being opened up for future extraction.

CATTLE BRING TOP PRICES
FOR THE YEAR.
Kansas Reports Beef Famine and
Prices are Soaring.

The general cattle market in Kan
sas City and vicinity advanced IS to
25 cents; stockers and feeders ~ to
rs cents higher; medium cows rs to
40 higher and veals rs to 50 cents
higher. Rains restored normal graz
ing and crop conditions thus remov-
ing pressure to ship out live stock, re-
sulting in sharply reduced receipts.
Buyers of dressed beef say tempor-
airy beef famine threatens Kansas
City. Fewer than 1900 head have
gone to the slaughter pens in four
days up to Tuesday. This is about
enough to supply the State of Mis-
souri, full beef ration for two days.
This weeks slaughter will be less than
half of the corresponding week year
ago. The capacity of the Kansas City
and the plants have for days past only
been killing about one seventh of this
number In four days this week the
five Western markets received only
$1,000 cattle, compared with $4,000
cattle year ago, decrease of SO per
cent In the first five and one-half
months this year the same markets re-
ceived 100000 fewer cattle than in the
same period of 1913, decrease of IL
per cent This shortage of meat has
been increased further by the unusu
ally light weight of cattle this year,
due to the scarcity of food Thus far
this year receipts of all live stock at
the Kansas City stock yards were
only 40,276 cars, decrease of o,28o
cars, or 1917 per cent, compared with
the same period in 1913, and the small
est car lot receipts in any similar
period since 1892 The decrease is
1890 cattle and 225,000 hogs. There
is an increase of $4,000 sheep-Kansas

She Crossed the Plains in 1soO-Lived
in Mason Valley.

By the death of Mrs. Mary T. Bor-
land, at Sparks, last week, another
pioneer resident of the State has Join
ed the silent majority. Mrs. Borland
was the daughter of Cornelius Os
borne and Matilda Aldridge, and was
born at Tekousha, Mich, on January
II, 1845. She lived in that vicinity
sixteen years and then, with her father
and brother Charles, joined a party

mourning for Abraham Lincoln, and
witnessed the returning of the foot
sore and weary batallions of the Civil
War. On July Is, 1868, she married
Simeon Swartwout, and to them was
born Mary, now Mrs w. d. Huff
man, of Andrews, Oregon In 1874,
after the decease of her husband, she
came to her father in Mason Valley
and here taught school until she mar
ried A. Greedy in 1876. There was
born of this wedding Paul, Andrew
and Julia, now Mrs. w. r. MCGOWAN

the pioneers of this valley until 1884
when she moved to Lovelock to re
side. There she met and married John

son. They travelled by team to Har-
ney Valley in 1886 and resided there
up to the time OF her late illness

son Paul, in Sparks on the 18th of this
month The interment took place in

THE BEE DISORDER IN MASON
VALLEY.
Cause of the Death of Bees Being
Thoroughly Studied.

Messrs. G.. G. Schweiss, entomolo-
gist at the State University, and F.
c. Dinsmore, of the same institution,
have been in the valley this week in
vestigating the cause of the death f
so many bees There will be no honey
crop in the valley this season nor in
Smith Valley and the apiarists have
lost large percentage of their bees
as we'll 1t is quite evident that the
bees are being poisoned by something
They go out into the alfalfa in the
morning apparently all right and
come home loaded with honey, the
flow being splendid this year, and then
they die So far the investigation
has shown that the alfalfa blossoms
are numerously filled with small
bug known as thripps. From 20 TO
100 of these have been found in one
blossom There are known to be
some forty different kinds of insects
which pollenize flowers but none of
them have been known to poison each
other Mr.. Schweiss left for Reno
yesterday and is to make a number of
laboratory tests to see if the cause of
death is from any poison that any in
sect could leave in blossom Today
Mr.. Warren and Mr.. Johnston, bee
owners of this place, go to Fallon with
Mr.. Dinsmore, of the University, to
investigate conditions there. They in
tend to find the cause, if possible, for
il they do not they will have to go out
of the honey business.

The wagon bridge which spans the
West Walker river at Nordyke is in
bad shape and may be carried out by
high water The water has washed
around the end of the cement abut-

has been caving the bank Probably
the bridge will stand if no more high
water comes. but we are pretty sure
to have that, and then the bridge will
be in danger.

with the breath of the sea that beats
with our outer, protecting keys;
gentle, caressing breath; sweet as

to refresh, to cheer, to invigorate.

of eternal youth that Ponce de Leon
missed only because he did not stay
to look for it. With a climate like
that of ours the future of Florida
is as wide as the seas, as high as

DON'T BE WILD, GIRLS

Wildness is a thing which girls
cannot afford. Delicacy is a thing
which cannot be lost or found. NO
art can restore to the grape It's
bloom. Familiarity without conf
dence, without regard, is destructive
to all that makes women exalting
and enrolling. 1t is the first duty Of
a woman to be a lady. Good breed
ing Is common sense. Bad manners
in a woman is immortality. Awk-
wardness may be ineradicable. Bash
fulness is constitutional Ignorance
of etiquette is the result of circum-
stances. All can be condoned and
not Danish men and women from the
amenities of their kind. But self-pos-
sessed, unshirking and aggressive
coarseness of demeanor may be reck-
oned as a States prison offense, and
certainly merits that mild form of
restraint called Imprisonment for
life. 1t is a shame for women to be
lectured on their manners. 1t is a
bitter shame that they need it. Do
not be restrained Do not have i'm
pulses that have to be restrained.
Do not wish to dance with theIprince
unsought; feel differently! Be sure
you confer honor! Garry yourself SO
lofty that men will look UP to you
in regard, not at you in rebuke. The
natural sentiment Of man toward
woman is reverence. He loses a large
means of grace when he is obliged
to account her as a being to be
trained in propriety. A mans ideal
is not wounded when a woman falls
in worldly wisdom; but if in grace,
in tact, in sentiment, in delicacy,
and in kindness she should be found
wanting, he receives an inward
hurt -Starke Telegraph.

The Clearwater Sun advocates the
establishment of poor farm in
Pinellas county. Poor farms in Flor
ida have had remarkable experiences.
In this county, for instance, there
was a poor farm once, but it was
abandoned for the unique reason
that it was not sufficiently patron
lied to justify its maintenance. In
Osceola county there is poor farm
where they clear three or four thou
sand dollars year above cost of
maintenance from the fruit crop.
Perhaps, now that population has SO
greatly increased in Polk county, a
poor farm might be a good institu-
ton to revive. But If one is estab
lished, let 1t not be in one of the
desolate, God-forsaken looking places
that are so often selected for such a
purpose. Let it be among pleasant,
cheerful surroundings, near enough
to large town or city so that pub
lie inspection and public opinion
will see to 1t that it is properly kept
and the inmates humanely cared for.
