Willoughby, Esa., : Editor, Nevada City Nugget, Nevada City, Calif. Dear Sir: During’ the past several months presistent rumors have come to-me to the effect that I am slated to succeed to the management of Nevada Irrigation District. Recently these reports have apparently become quite a common topic of conversation. While I appreciate very much the compliment to my ability that a few friends of mine evidently would bestow upon me, I feel that the situation calls for a frank statement before further developments occur. It should be remembered that for a very considerable period I actively and conscientiously opposed the plan of Nevada Irrigation District, and if for no other reason, it must obviously be ridiculous that I should accept the management of a project that I never had faith in. As the representative of the largest individual property owner in. the District, I am naturally very much eoncerned in its successful operation, but aside from this responsibility, I would have it quite definitely understood that I never have been, and not now, and never will be, a candidate for the office, and cannot conceive of any imaginable terms or conditions under which I could accept it. : Yours very ‘truly, W.

Really Seemed Time for “Beau” to Depart Some racy stories of Beau Bruinmell, “Xing of the Dandies,” at the height. of his glory a century ago, are told by Lewis Melville in “George Bryan Brummell: His Life and Letters,” recalled a writer in the Kansas City Times. It was said of this beau that “women admired him, but men almest reverenced him.” He never married, but that he was not indifferent to the charm and companionship of the ladies, there is plenty of evidence, “T must leave here this morning,” he said unexpectedly to his host when staying at a country house, “But,” the other expostulated, “you were not going until the end of the week,” “Prue, quite true, curred, “but I really must be off.” His host, however, was Rot satisfied, and plied him with questions until at last Brummell, in desperation, blurted out: “Well, the fact is, I am in love with yeur wife.” ” “Why, my dear fellow, so was T . twenty years ago,” remarked the lady’s husband, hoping to put his guest at his ease. Then a thought struck him and he inquired: “Ts she in love with you?” “I—JI believe she is.” “That alters the ease,” the host said “T will send for your post horse immediately.” Butterfat Human Need Food scientists, whose efforts to find the greatest food values have increased year by year, find that generally the people are the healthiest in . the beau con.
