road that is on the edge of their town and will be of more service to other towns than to Itself; so after all it may be a long time before the an- cient turnpike becomes State Road, though the demand and the necessity for it is great.
 A hundred years ago drovers did f1ourishing business. Stephen Fuller, a Revolutionary Soldier drove herds of cattle and sheep between Hartford and Albany, N. '. At one time, he had young man in his employ, who al though a great stutterer was noted for his wit. He wos not over bright and had a. peculiar habit of gathering all the feathers he saw by the riad- side and sticking them in his hat. One sultry afternoon when they were driY- ing a large flock of sheep past coun- try church. ore of the flock bolted in to the open door, passed up the aisle and lay down ill front of the pulpit.
 The young drover without removing his hat, strode in after him, and grasping him by the horns dragged him out. The astonished preacher stopped his discourse and demanded to know what he was doing.
 I'm sep-sep sep separating the she-she sheep from the go-go-g goats" was the reply

POETRY
FATE

Two shall be born the whole wide
 world apart And speak in different tongues and
 have no. thought Each Of the others being and no
 heed; And these OCT unknown seas. to un-
 known lands Shall cross. escaping wreck, defying
 death; And all unconsciously shape every act And bend each wandering step to this
 one end. That one day out of darkness they
 shall meet And read life's meaning in each others
 eyes. And two shall walk some narrow way
 of IlTe So nearly side by side that should one
 turn Ever so little space to left or right They needs must stand acknowledged
 face to face; And yet with wistful eyes that never
 meet With gropIng hands that never clasp
 and lips Calling in vain to ears that never hear. They seek each other all their weary And die unsdtisded. and this is Fate.

COLONIAL THEATRE.
Slave of Satan, Two Reels, and Her Wedding Gown, Two Reels, Today.

It Is not often that patrons of motion picture theatres are afforded the pleas ure of witnessing two double reel fea- lures on the same programme, but such is the case today at the Colonial. A Slave of Satan Is one of the two-reel features telling the moral that folly must be paid for with sorrow and suf- ferfng and how the bankers daughter, longing for a gayer life, becomes an artists model under an assumed name and is saved from disgrace and sin by her discarded lover. Her Wedding Gown is the Biograph two-reel drama, telling of the humble life and desires of a pretty girl even when thrust into the depths of society, and how her simple rousseau was her choice even when fortune placed an elaborate one before her. This story is told with all she photographic beauty of the Bio- graph company and the cast is espe- cially strong and pleasing, The Spirit of Christmas is the Vitagraph offering with a big cast including William Humphries, Mary Maurice. Tefft. John- son and many others.

BOUND TO
DISTRICT COURT

w. B. Twingle, charged with stab
bing p: F. Lynch, a local paperhang-
er, was given a preliminary hearing
before Judge Castle yesterday and
was bound over to the district court.
Lynch testified that he was going
home from work on the day of the
stabbing and was accosted by Twingle
who demanded he buy him a bottle of
whiskey. Lynch refused and then
Twingle attacked him and cut him in
the back and chest with a pocket
knife. An officer was standing near
by and Immediately put Twingle un-
der arrest. Twingle says that he did
not ask Lynch to buy him any
whiskey and that he acted in self de-
fense. When arrested Twingle gave
his home as Reno and to back up his
statement that he was not begging,
he displayed $120 in express money
orders and some other coin. Lynch
has only been in the city a short time
having come here from Salt Lake
City few weeks ago.

INCORPORATION PAPERS
FILED WITH STATE

Over $1,000 acres of Carey Act
lands in Fishlake valley, Esmeralda
county, were today thrown open to
entry, owing to the failure of the COM
pany headed by Los Angeles and Kan
sas promoters to comply with the gov
ernment rules for proving up within
the required period. e. Molini, JT.,
accompanied by his wife, arrived from
the south last evening and today Mr..
Molini, who is the owner of several
hundreds of acre in the valley, filed
on some land in the vicinity of his
ranch. John Buser, Joseph H. Ford,
George Maltos, and Mr.. Wade and
others are also filing for the full num-
ber of acres allowed by the govern
ment.
Mr.. Molini stated today THAI the
failure of the corporation which had
gobbled UP the entire valley, to COM
ply with the government regulations
would mean much to Nevada, as many
bonafide settlers were now in the val
ley and would make an effort to Sc
cure some of the forfeited lands.--Ap-

RACE
STILL UNDECIDED

With all the precincts in the county
in with the exception of Bryan, the
race for assemblymen from Elko
county remains unchanged The first
five men are Voight Fairchild, Nc
Farlane, Mcbride and Winter. The
race between Mcbride and Booher is
still hair raising one and at this
hour Booher had gained a few votes
on the former and now is only two
votes behind. AS there are 10 votes
polled at Bryan, the results from
that precinct might change the result
and there will be no telling who will
be the man for the last place until
the returns are all in.

.PLUCKY WOMAN
FRUSTRATES ROBBER

An attempt was made
to rob the home of
Mrs. Morgan, on Court Street at an
early hour last night. Mrs. Morgan
heard noise at her front window
few minutes after the family had left
the supper table and began to inves-
tigate. She discovered a man in the
act of attempting to enter the house
through window. She Immediately
went to get pistol and In the mean
time the man had been frustrated by
screen in the window and had gone
around to the back. Mrs. Morgan
went around that way and ran upon
the burglar. He made no attempt to
run until she asked him what he was
doing and threatened him with gun.
He then began 20 leave in hurry
and the plucky woman fred shot
into the floor near his feet which in
creased his speed greatly and the last
seen of him he was leaving in a hurry
firmly believing that he had been
shot,
