= They must bepenjoying quite a Yspell'
of weather in Nevada. Hear how the
local of the Gold Hill Netos talks: THE
I sun shines bright and VAIN. the ice and
4 snow is going, and melting fast from the
Divide, down through Gold Hill is flow
ing. The sage brush on the rnountain
side, wild storms no longer fearing,
smiles upon the patches brown of rocks
and earth appearing. Sweet notes from
lfeathered songsters wild, we'd have Ger
| hill and vale, but ne'er q bird have we to
sing, and jerk his little tail. Saloon
doors are open wide, bar-keeps look
.blithe and gay, and the ice man for nice
cooling drinks is selling ice today. For
three days longer we are sure with sun
shine to be blest, for the Gold Hill pigs
have all their snouts now steadily point
ed west.
