AT the Wheeler well another stra-
tum of hot water was entered last

over the derrick. This geyser differed
from the first one in that the spout

was intermittant. 1t would shoot for

for five and one-half minutes. This
continued regularly until the casing
was driven down and the water shut

something of the same problem the
solution of which earned for Solomon.

three years old. The child she claimed
as hers was a little girl OF seven years
and she gave no sign of recognizing
her mother. The American was puz-
zled to know what to do. An idea
struck him. He told the mother to
sing the lullabies with which she had
been used to rock her baby to sleep.
The little girl looked astonished and
thoughtful then she smiled. Memory

Oma had recovered her child.

RABID COYOTE ATTEMPTS
ATTACK ON ELk0 GIRLS

The Misses Alice Hylton and Nellie
Goblin had an experience Saturday
evening that happens to few people,
and n which they have no desire to
repeat. AS they were returning from
Hylton. says the Free Press, where
they had taken some relatives, and
were just this side of the Reinhart
ranch, speeding along at a twenty
mile-an-hour gait, they noticed a
coyote standing at one side and close
to the road. AS a sight of a coyote is
an everyday affair when travelling the
Elko county roads, the girls thought
nothing of it, and expected to see the
animal gallop off into the brush. But
just as they reached a point opposite
the coyote, it suddenly leaped toward
the car, jumping several feet into the
air, and just missed landing in the
car by a few inches. AS it was, it
struck the back fender of the car
and was thrown back into the brush.
Both girls declare that the animal had
every appearance of being rabid, poor
and in bad condition, with foam drop
ping from its mouth. They acknow-
ledge they were frightened and put
ting On speed fastened to town, never
stopping to see what became of the
animal.

BIG BUILDING BOOM FOR THIS
STATE DURING NEXT YEAR

There will be great activity in the
building line in Nevada during the
next year in the opinion of William
II. Hendricks, president of the Sc
curity Savings & Loan Association
who has just returned to Reno from
a three-weeks' trip to Montana. Ida
no and the Northwest, where he went
in the interest of his company. says
the Reno Gazette. Hendricks also
was a delegate to various Masonic
organizations at Boise and Portland.
Hendricks says that in all places
visited he found interest in Nevada
great, and many persons with whom
he talked indicated their intention of
coming to this state to settle within
the next few months.
All of those people, said Hen
bricks. will come prepared to secure
homes and construct residence. 1t
means that Nevada's population is
due for a big boost during the next
year and that building activities will
show a marked increase. Interest in
Nevada is general, and people with
whom | talked, who live in Eastern
and Middle Western states, insist that
the Westward movement is going to
grow from now on"
