DEER SKIxs.-In the above heading
we do not allude to the natural covering
in which venison is usually e~nveloped
when running in its wild normal condi-
ton among the green forests and
huckleberry bushes, but we were look
ing at those rich Russian sable furs at
Rosener's, South G street, Virginia, this
morning. Richer or more beautiful
furs were never seen this side Of the
Sierra Nevada Mountains. They are
dear skins, too, being of the very finest
and best quality p~rocurable. These
furs are on exhibition at Rosener's for n
few days only, and we presume might
be purchased in case a person would
produce the stated coin equivalent. We
only took a look ut n couple Of capes
and a collar, when the prices named
squelched our acquisitive aspirations.
$500 for one, $3.50 for the other, and
5000 for the collar. We don't W any
rich White Pine feet, no Eberhardt, or
anything Of that kind, otherwise we
wouldn't mind getting married just for
the sake of having an excuse to buy
those furs and pile them across the
pretty shoulders of our better half,
whose style ofsbeauty and general APP
pearance we should select with special
reference to her wearing those same
furs. But what's the use for n fellow
to talk, who amt got no better half
aud If he had, couldn't afford to treat
her to anything more than the collar.
Those rich furs are mighty comfortable
to look at, however, with their fine,
heavy, quilted silk Innings, rich ~tassels,
etc. Read tho advertisement Of Rose

BETTING on A DEAD TuISo.-On the
occasion of a recent man-killing in Vir-
giuis, after the body had been removed
to the undertaker's, certain parties
were taking a critical look At the corpse.
Directly they got into a warm argument
as to which of the four pistol ball
wounds was the fatal Says one
chap, I" That shot in the right breast is
the one that fetched him." "No, stree!
not much" a y the other I'll bet
you the drinks that this ere one through
the head was the most fatallest, and
what put hi, light out" "Doue," re-
piled the. other, "the drinks goes"
Just then a ~bystander stepped up {:
"Hold on, boys" says he, " this wont
do that amt no way at all to bet !;
faint on the square, you know, to bet
on = dead thing" They agreed that
this was so, and dropped the bet, but
they went out and had the drinks on
that last joke, nevertheless. "Sich is
life" in Washoe.
the BUTCHERS on A SrRIHE.-The
butchers of Virginia and Gold Hill have
been holding a meeting, at which they
passed n series Of resolutions raising
the prices of al, kinds Of meats. Said
new arrangement goes into effect on and
after the first Of next month, as may be
seen by reading their published mani
festo in our advertising columns to-day.
Even soup-bones and liver will be
charged for in the future, and the
chances for begging chunks OF dog
meat and then ~swindling the dog out
of il BY making a nice little stew for
Yourself, will be materially reduced.
This new conspiracy will be mighty
rough on some fellows we know OF, but
the high prices the butchers hnve to pay
for good meat animals is doubtless the
reason of their raising on their Gus.

MRs. ~BRRcxxSrELpr AoAIS.-This
troublesome woman, whose unruly
actions and consequent frequent occu-
patton of station house or Jail have fur
nishsd many a local item during the
last two or three years, was at her old
capsrs on South c street, virginia,
Sunday forenoon. She stood on the
sidewalk Just north Of where the St.
Louis Brewery was, and while men,
women and children were passing to
church, she INDUCED freely, at the top
of her voice, in the most blasphemous,
vulgar and offensive language. She
kept at it as long as she pleased, with
no fear Of any policeman arresting her.
She has been on y sort Of crazy, drunk
en- rampage to the great annoyance OF
everybody In that'neighborhood for the
last three or four days and nights.
Tho former police used to arrest her on
such occasions.
