Two candidates for office In Mis

part of the state, and In one town
their appearance was almost slmul
taneous. The candidate last arriv

the purpose of getting a drink of wat

his knock at the door he said, when
she had given him the riclred draught
and he had offered her In recompense
some candy: "Did the man ahead of
me give you anything?"
"Oh, yes, sir," replied the bright
girl, "he gave me candy."
"Ah!" exclaimed the candidate,
"here's 6 cents for you. I don't sup

The youngster lauphert merrily.
"Yes, he did, too. He gave nie JO
cents!"
Not to he outdone, the candidate
gave the little one another nickel,
and, picking her up In his arma
kissed her.
"Did he kiss you, too?" he asked
genially.
"Indeed, he did, sir!" responded the
little girl, "and he kissed ma too!"

The Development or nevaa.i.
No state in the Union has so long
and so badly needed an Increase of
population as has Nevada, says the
National Geographic Magazine. Her
population of 42.000 to-day Is less
than It was In 1870, six years after
her admission as a state. It Is grat
ifying to know, therefore, that she
will more than double her present
numbers when the vast government
Irrigation works begun on the True
kee and Carson rivers are completed
It Is estimated that the works will
make productive about 375,000 acres
of sage brush desert In the western
part of the state. These lands will
furnish fertile homesteads of about
eighty acres each for 4. .100 families.
Towns and villages will naturally
spring up, so that Nevada may expect
from the reclamation an increase of
0,000 at the least.

PALL CP A GRIZZLY BEAR.
Without an Instant's Warning Tract
able Beast Kills His Trainer.
Another distinct type of a zoo rogue
Is the beast that gees wri.ng owing to
accidental temi.tatlon like Shaggy,
an exceedingly Iritelligr l.t, tractable
Hoeky Mountain grizzly who reverted
to savagery and turned man-killer In
a twinkling, owing to the unfortunate
misstep and fall of his trainer.
Shaggy was a big. handsome, gray
old fellow, with a Jungle-thick coat and
1 lumbering, awkward gait, and a fun
ny twinkle that, made him particularly
adaptable for his tart of clown In a
remarkably trained group of fourteen
hears, lie had cerne under the hands
of his teacher when but a helplesf
tub, had never 'ost hi? liking for ca
resses, and, although the mightiest
neast In the eillectien. was least sua
pected of being dtingermis. Once, when
s strlned hyena hung to the ankle of
his friend, he hsil run to the rescue,
and cut loose ripht and left with hi?
ponderous fore paws, and had bitten
and torn and mangled the ugly beast
to death before he could be heaU'n
off. Among his accomplishments were
that of turning admirably grotesque
somersaults and the more difficult feat
nf balancing himst if on his hind leps
on a three-foot wooden sphere.
Not a scratch or a senr had his
trainer to show for the yesis of work
he had put in with the bear. And yet
without en Instant s warning, this
same beast attack) d and injured his
master so that, whn rescued, he was
seml demc nteil, and so dreadfully cut
and lacerated that the surgeons de
cided it useltss to try to save his life

CERCNIMO IN CLD AGE.
He Is No Lerger Looked Upon as
Chief ty the Apaches.
Oeronima was at l.awton last week
The health of He old chief is stll'
good, although he is very aged. Hit
home is ten miles from l.awton, yet
he us-.ially wsiks to and from the
place to do hic trading.
He Is quite i.ften asked to give an
exhibition of bis skill as a marks
man with the low. This he readilj
consents to do provided a nickel Is
made the ta;;el and' it becomes bis
own In c ate b( bits it.
Ocroiilmo (! nit s Die statement ol
Gen. Miles that the general captured
him. Ti e old warrior says that some
where iii or. the mountains, when h(
was tit. the nath. two white mer
camf to him ar.u told him that Gen
Miles wanted to see him.
The men ai corr pntiU d him to the
camp of the gent ral and he was made
a prisoner. Getonimo says he thinks
it was in Arizona, the territory of his
birth. Anyway, he says it was up In
the mountains.
The tribal relations of the Apaches
have been dissolved, and they no long
er look nron Geronlmo as their chief
They consider him a childish old man,
who Is too senile to advise them.
