To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The city of Reno occupied a little spot on the plain. From my mountain it seemed like a city of toy houses built on nature's carpet. A Ride in the Flume. — Upon my return I found that Mr. Flood and Mr. Fair had arranged for a ride in the flume, and I was challenged to go with them. Indeed, the proposition was put in the form of a challege— they dared* me to go. I thought that if men worth $25,000,000 or $30, 000, 000 apiece could afford to risk their lives, I could afford to risk mine, which wa...s not worth half so much. So I accepted the challenge, and two boats were ordered. These were nothing more than pig troughs with one end knocked out. The "boat" is built, like the flume, V shaped, and fits into the flume. It is composed of three pieces of wood, two two-inch planks 16 feet long, and an end board, which is nailed about 2£ feet across the top. Digitized by VjOOQIC 93 The forward end of the boat was left open, the rear end left closed with a board, against which was to come the current of water to propel us.
