where man and beast aro cared for at

visit all the farms in this valley, but
from tho above it will bo observed that
the citizens of this valley aro well to do
farmers.
Geo. Marah hay a magnificent prune
orchard of HO acres. This orchard is too
young for bearing, but it is in excellent
condition and tho trees are very thrifty.
I noticed that this vcar's growth is fine,
tne branches showing a growth of about
six foet. It will not como into fuh bear
ing till, probably, three years hence.
Mr. Marsh is at present in the East, at
St. Paul, Minnesota, I was told, so I
failed to have an interview with him to
learn more particularly tho status of
this fino orchard, bnt 1 judge there are
at least 1C0 trees to the acre. That
would make 14,00i trees in this orchard.
The raising ot poultry in this valley
his engaged the attention of the farmers
and quite a trade in poultry is main
tained. I wis told a .Mr. Cannon con
templates engaging in a henery and that
he purposes to put 15,000 fryers on tbe
market next summer bv artificial incu
bation. Mr. Cannon is an experienced
poultry man and wili doubtless make a
success in this line.
There arc quite a number of others in
this valley who liavo large young prune
orchards on the way as well as other va
rieties of fruit for which the lands in this
valley seem to be well adapted.

as is his wont while contemplating Eomo
ponderous question of state oi some
weighty editorial in the "greatest" or
consulting with his political eteerer3 ; an
irate citizen was seen moving down the
sidewalk in a hurried manner, making
for the editor of the Review on the walk
in front of him. The irate citizen re
ferred to soon met tho object of his
search. The salutations were brief. A
few words passed, not overheard
by lookers on from tbe opposite side of
he street, but their maneuvers were
noted. Soon after meeting, the cane of
the irate citizen was eeen descending
upon Fisher's head and shoulders like
the swingle of an Irish Hail, and the
doughty editor was seen scrambling for
tbe door of 31. F. Rapp'a drug tore fol
lowed by his assailant. Fisher never

FIRE AT O.LENBROOK.
Jndgo Riddle's barn was destroyed by
tiro on Sunday morning with all contents
including a fine span of mulea and five
valuable horses, about fifty tons of bay,
and about 800 bushels of barley and oats
and a large amount of farm implements.
Not a strap of harness nor a farm imple
ment left on the farm except one wagon.
Lo-s about $3500, insurance $1000. The
fire was discovered at 3:30 and was un
doubtedly set on fire by tramps, either by
design or accident. Tbe barn doors had
been carefully closed on the evening be
fore, bat Judge Riddle, who first armed
at the scenes of tbo fire, found the large
front door wide open. Evidontly the per
son who was the cause of tbe fire had
escaped at that door. Judge Riddle and
his men made a desperate effort to save
his horses. Finding it impossible to en
ter the front door, they rushed to a side
entrance to tho horses through the car
riage and implement room bnt was met
at tbe door by the flames that bad al
ready readied the horses, some of which
had broken loose and were wildly plung
ing about the barn. Tbe only thing
they saved waa a phaeton tbe judge
seized as be waa driven back. In the
meantime one of the men had released a
stallion lrom a small lot attached to the
barn. Tbe judge was fighting tbe flames
bare-footed and bare-headed, with noth
ing on but a nightshirt, and in attemp
ting to move a heavy wagon standing
near the barn was driven away by the
heat, rushed to a horse pond near by
threw himself into the muddy water,
turned over, then made another rnsh for
the wagon and by tbe assistance of tbe
men, who by crawling under tbe wagon
succeeded in rolling it to a place of
safety.
Judge Riddle's barn was on 3 of tbe
largest and best appointed barns in the
county. All the farm implements were
stored in the annex to the barn and con
sisted of one binder, two mowers, bay
rake, two cultivators for orchards, two
sulky plows, six walking plows, two
carts, and various other odds and ends,
and harness for ten horses.
Tbe judge takes his loss philosophic
ally, only saying to the crowds of syrnpa
timing neighbors: "My poor horses, it
will be lonesome without them."

CANE PRESENTATION.
Last Thursday evening at the I. O. O,
F. Hall, Hon. E. D. Stratford was pre
sented with an elegant gold-headed
ebony cane, which bad been contributed
by Reno Post No. 20, G. A. R.. of this
city and by various inmates of tbe Sol
diers' Home, as a substantial token of
tbeir appreciation of the Memorial
oration delivered by him at tbeir request
on the 30th of May last. Tbe presenta
tion speech was by Post Commander
Hamlin, who in reviewing tbe oration,
complimented Mr. Stratford for bis 3uc
cees in giving the old soldiers due credit
and full justice for the part they took in
tbe war in such a manner that there was
no eavor of flattery about it, a difficult
feat, he remarked, for it ia often difficult
to draw the line at tho precise point
where deserved praise Ieavea off and
flattery begins.
In conclasion.be said: "I would ask
you to accept the thanks of Reno Post
and Corps, and the old soldiers and loyal
citizens of this community, and in addi
tion to this, I desire to Bay that the
members ot Keno Post and various
members of tbe Soldiers' Home, have
contributed of their means and have
therewith purchased this cane which on
behalf of, and in the name of tbe donors,
I now present to you as a slight .token of
the esteem in which you are held by
them, and which I trust you will accept
in the same spirit in which it is given
Mr. btratlord responded in a very
