tains the body o f water at a general
level by turning the stream flow into

There is an irrigation plant supply­

is operated by pumping, thp motive

Gold Hill Man Has Deer Park.
Ashland— Earl Fisher, o f Gold Hill,
in this county, has installed a deer
park on a small scale. A vacant lot
has been utilised. It has been screened
with wire and converted into a model
place for the animals.
Several deer
are already within the enclosure and
more will be added as opportunity
offers. Their presence is the center
o f attraction, not only to residents of
the town, but also to strangers pass­

Thirty Civet Cat« Trapped.
Albany—The skin* o f 30 civet cats
were brought to this city by C. J. Nel­
son, o f Brownsville, who has been
trapping in the Cascade mountains.
There is no bounty on these animals
but the skins are valuable in the fur
market.
Mr. Nelson also had the
skins o f a coyote and six wild cats on
which he collected bounties.

I ’ve always been that

"Tut! tut! Don't alarm yourself. If
Covington shouldn't come, the race
will be declared off.”
"No chance,” announced the train­
er, with utter conviction.
"These
thugs have made lt pay or play, and
the bets are down.”
"You know I can’t run.”
“ If he don’t come, you’ll have to !”
"Absurd! I shall be indisposed."
“ If you mean you’ll get sick, or
sprain an ankle, or break a leg, or
kill yourself, guess again. I’m re­
sponsible for you now. Something
may go wrong with me, but nothin’
is goin’ to happen to you. My only
chance to make a live of it is to get
some one to outrun this cook. You’re
the only chance I’ve got, if Culver
don’t show, and the first law of na­
ture ain’t never been repealed.”
"Self-protection, eh?"
"Exactly.”
Glass coughed thrice
without result, stepped off the prayer-
rug, rolled It up tightly; then, hug­
ging it beneath his arm, went on:
"That four-eyed guy slipped me a
whole lot of feed-box information.
Why, he’s a killer, Wally! And he’s
got a cash-register to tally his dead.”
"Notches on his gun-handle, I sup­
pose?"
"So many that it looks like his wife
had used it to hang pictures with. I
tell you, he’s the most deceitful rum­
my I ever seen. What’s more, he’s got
the homicide habit, and the habit has
got its eye on me.” Glass was in
deadly earnest, and his alarm con­
trasted bo strongly with his former
contemptuous attitude toward the
cowboys that Speed was constrained
to laugh again.
"It’s the most amusing thing I ever
heard of.”
"Yes,” said the trainer, with elabo­
rate sarcasm, "lt would be awful fun­
ny if lt wasn't on the square.” He
moistened his lip nervously.
“ You alarm yourself unnecessarily
UENOS dlas, Senor.” Carara
bowed politely to Speed.
"Good-morning

said Wally.
Turning to the trainer,
Carara eyed him from top
to toe, removed hia ciga­
rette, and flipped the aahea
daintily (rom it;
then,
smiling disdainfully, said:
"Buenos dias, Senor F a t!”
Glass started. ‘'You talkin' to me?”
"Yes.”
Carara leaned languidly
against the wall, took a match from
his pocket, and dextrously struck lt
between the nails of hia thumb and
finger. He breathed his lungs full of
smoke and exhaled lt through his
nose. “ I would have splk to you blf-
fore. but the Senor Fat ia—he
shrugged his shculdera—“frighten’ so
bad he will not understan’. So— I
come back.”
"Who's scared?” said Glass, gruffly.
Carara turned bis palm outward, tn
gentle apology.
“ You been talk’ a gret deal to my
Señorita— 'o Marledetta, eh?”
“ Oh. the Cuban Queen!”
Glass
winked openly at Speed. “ Sure! I
slip her a laugh now and then.”
“ She is not Cubana, she Is Mexi­
cana,” said Carara, politely.
“Well, what d’you think of that! I
thought she was a Cuban.” Glass be­
gan to chuckle.
“ Senor Fat,” broke in the Mexican,
sharply, while Larry winced at the
distasteful appellation, “ she is my
Señorita!”
“ Is she? Well, I can’t help lt If
she falls for me." The speaker cast
an appreciative glance at his em­
ployer. “ And you can cut out that
‘Senor Fat,’- because lt don’t go— ’’
Then he gasped, for Carara slowly

Her Again?”
snapped. His face had become sud­
denly convulsed, while his voice rang
with the tone of chiiied metal. Glass
retreated a step, a shudder ran
through him, and his eyes riveted
themselves upon the weapon with hor­
rified Intensity.
“ Listen, Pig!
If you splk to her
again, I will cut you.” The gaze of
the Mexican pierced his victim. “ I
will not keel you, 1 will Just—cut
you! ”
—
Speed, who had sat in open-mouthed
amazement during the scene, pinched
himself. Like Larry, he could not re­
move his gaze from the swarthy man.
He pulled himself together with an ef­
fort, however, undertaking to divert
the present trend of the conversation.
” W—where will you cut him?” he
asked, pleasantly, more to make con­
versation than from any lingering
question ns to the precise location.
"Here.” Carara turned the blade
against himself, and traced a cross
upon his front, whereupon the trainer
gurgled and laid protecting hands
upon his protruding abdomen. "You
spik Spanish?”
"N o." Glass shook his head.
"But you understan’ w’at I try to
say?”
"Yes—oh yes—I ’m hep all right.”
“ And the Senor Fat will r-r-remem-
ber?"
"Sure!”
Glass sighed miserably,
and tearing his eyes away from the
glittering blade, rolled them toward
his employer. "I don’t want her! Mr.
Speed knows I don’t want her!”
Carara bowed. "And the Fat Senor
will not splk wit’ her again?”
"N o !”
"Gracias, Senor! I thank you!"
"You’re welcome!” agreed the New
Yorker, with repressed feeling.
“Adios! Adios, Senor Speed!”
“Goodby!” exclaimed the two in
chorus.
