COYOTE IN CHICKEN COOP
SUFFERS SUPREME PENALTY

Pete Ramondini was brought into
Eureka Thursday suffering from lac
Grated wounds inflicted by a coyote at
the loft & Jacobsen ranch in east
Diamond Valley about midnight the
previous night. He Killed the coyote
and brought the read into town for
shipment to the veterinary department
of the Nevada University to determine
il the animal had been rabid. A reply
from the university is expected by
telegraph.
According to the story given the
Sentinel" Ramondini heard n COM
motion in the chicken house and got
up and went to investigate. He ex-
pected to find a large hoot owl. that
had been lowering around the ranch
for several days. and did not take a
gun. As he opened the door the oon
light streamed into the house and dis
closed Mr.. Coyote. who made n dash
for the opening and attempted TO slip
past. swapping at and succeeding in
sinking his teeth into R~amondini's
head. tearing the scalp both up and
down. As Ramondini went down he
grabbed the coyotes snout. and being
on unusual and powerful succeed

The coyote had killed five chickens

was not diseased. Nevertheless. its
head was sent TO the university for

doubt feel considerably relieved II the
animal is found to nave been in normal
condition.

Record of Denver.
The mines of Nevada have produced
better h 5000. 900. 900 in precious
metals. and the residents of that state
are not the foreign rabble which
makes up a great part Of the popuia-
ton of some of our larger cities. Ne
vadans produce more real wealth per
capita than do the residents OF any
other state, and they don't rob the
other fellow doing 1t. The Comstock
lode in Nevada practically financed the
United States after the civil war with
it's great outpouring of gold and silver.
The metal u of Nevada have
scarcely been scratched. New riches
are being developed in the mines, and
greater riches await the developers of
it's oil lands and shaie deposits.
Although Nevada Is sparsely settled
at the present time. it is now the mec-
ca for those who seek new wealth
from Mother Earth. 1t is a state, free
from proftcers. Developments now un-
der way in the mining camps and oil
fields of Nevada may at m time GAUGE

make the present population look small
by comparison. II Is well that the
