JUDGE LUNSFORD
RESIGNS BENCH

Judge Lunsford left for his home in
Reno last night. having finished two
cases, Lulu Burch vs.. Frank Eaton.
and Stall Brothers VS.. Adrian Ber-
nard, which have been occupying his
attention for the past several days.
Judge Lunsford announced before
leaving that while here he had drawn
up and forwarded his resignation as
district Judge Of Washoe county. to
wbecome effective May 81 His retire
ment at this time comes on account
of attractive offers he has received to
return to private practice. He was
elected to the district bench three
years ago, after serving as district at
torney for two terms. Previous to
that time he was city attorney of
Reno. Judge Lunsford is popular and
has made an enviable record as pub
lie official.

ESPECIAL CORRESPONDENCE
WASHINGTON, DC, May 21.--Al-
most daily 1t becomes necessary for
members of the Nevada delegation to
explain that the Sagebrush State is
larger than Pennsylvania or New
York, or both Of them put together;
and no, We are not troubled with tar
antulas, or Indians, or Mexicans; and
no. We do not have cyclones there.
And yes. 1t gets pretty hot on the des-
ert. but we don't feel it as much as we
do at Washington; and yes. there is
but one Representative in Congress
for our one hundred and ten square
miles of territory, and it takes FIVE
days for mail to reach points on main
lines of railroad, and a whole lot
longer than that to get letter to the
Groom mine. for instance; and that
1t is impossible to get a reply in less
than a week.
But there are other misconceptions
of Nevada which outcrop most unex-
pectedly at times. There are cases
which seem to call for feminine ex-
plantations of the life back home"
For instance, a certain Chicago so-
ciety for the Identification of national
highways, or something of tina. sort,
has been insisting to a certain Ne
vada woman that the old state ought
to set out rose bushes or something
else beautiful along the roads--prc-
sumably after the order of the famous
Redlands (Calif) boulevard. The lady
of Nevada protested several times
that the state was too prosperous in
the matter Of distances to attempt
any such scheme. Her final reply
from the Chicago correspondent was
to the effect that she should think If
Nevada could not set out flowers she
could at least plant sagebrush along
the roads to give a green and artistic
effect to the landscape!
Congress keeps right on with holi-
daying, and perhaps will make week
of it. The House had adjourned over
Thuraday, and when news OF the death
of Chief Justice White came to the
Senate. 1t adjourned as a mark Of re-
spect. Friday the House adjourned
Immediately after assembling. Today
all departments are closed by procla.
nation of the President, and there is
talk in the corridors that House and
Senate may adjourn again.
As the big circus was mentioned as
a possible cause of adjournment of
the House last Tuesday (though that
is a daring hypothesis for corre-
spondent to send out!), it will be in
teresting to relate that Washington
lady-a talented translator and the
possessor of many college degrees
called at the office of Congressman
Arentz the succeeding day, and in
the course Of conversation admitted
that she had gone to the circus" for
the first time in her life. and she
thought 1t was perfectly splendid-all
except some slight abuse of the ami
mails.

PARADISE VALLEY, May 23.-The

the worst stretch anywhere around
