Powell in critical condition Until re-
action takes place the result cannot be de-
termined Everything possible was done

BAcKEp OUT.-We heard good joke on a
resident of Dog Greek the other day. The
party referred to is a bachelor and lives on
the wagon road A few days ago an emi-
grant wagon from Oregon came along and
canned near our friends place. The head
of the family soon made himself acquainted
with the proprietor of the premises, and
asked him why he didn't get woman to
keep house for him. The answer was that
he intended to marry just as soon as woman
willing to enter into the bonds of matrimony
could be found. The Oregonian remarked
that he could find him partner if he would
take her. The bachelor said that was right
into-his hand, and the emigrant invited him
TO his camp. The Oregonian called up
bouncing damsel of about twenty years, and
informed her that the gentleman accompany
take her for better or for worse. The dam
sci, delighted with the prospect, advanced,
and seizing our friend by the hand, assured
him that she was glad to meet him, and was
ready to marry him at the drop of hat,
while the old lady FASTENED up and congrat-
luated her g darter" on her good luck. Sur
prised and alarmed at the serious turn mat
ters had taken, our friend, who is constitu.
tionally opposed to the institution of matri-
mony, endeavored to explain. by saying he
was only joking, and did not want to marry.
At this the Oregonian became highly indig-
nant, and the would be bride requested her
father to take his rifle and "drap the var,
mint in his tracks, At this affectionate
suggestion the bachelor left for his fortifca-
tions, the last thing he heard being the voice
of the old lady consoling her disappointed
darter' with the remark that it was best to
6 let the blk go, as he weren't man enough
to do her anyhow"

A DoNATIoN.-Wm Kroner, who was
sick of the small pox in San Francisco and is
well, sends fifty dollars to the Rev. Mother
of the Sisters of Mercy, and says;
| would at this opportunity mention that
while at the small pox hospital, sick, l had
for the first time occasion to convince myself
of the excellence of the Sisterhood of Mercy,
and while | estimated their value as a com
TT to the sick. to the full extent of my abil-
ity, | found in them, and particularly in
Sister Mary Stanislaus, Whom consider my
guardian angel such God-like beings as
never could have been convinced were living
on this globe. | wish you would consider my
small donation not as a compensation for
what received at the hands of your kind
sisters, (such could not be attempted with
money! but merely as a small material sup
port of the most Cody cause among mankind,
and of which you are Mother Superior.

VELocIpEDEs.- Velocipes, says the Alta,
are becoming the prevailing epidemic in San
Francisco. To be able to ride veocipede
with ease and safety is the hight of accom-
plishments. At first velocipedists dreaded to
take the streets for fear of the treacherous
character of the forward wheel of the ma
chine. But they are now beginning to come
forth like bees from a hive. and they can be
seen on the streets at most any hour OF the
day. Velocipedest,ia is becoming more
and more prevalent every hour. Old and
young, males and females, are taking lessons
in private, and as soon as they become ex-
perts we may expect q perfect outpouring of
these two-wheeed vehicles with their riders.
We actually saw, yesterday noted divine,
with coat off, pants tucked in his boots, and
sweating like farmer in harvest field. in
his efforts to keep up respectable gait on
his velocipede. and not have the thing turn
over We are informed that an enterprlsing
gentleman has determined to rent the Me
chanics' Institute Pavilion and to open
velocipede school,

CHICAGO VS.. San FRANcIsco.-Th San
Francisco Chamber of Commerce has finally
walked up sufficiently to appoint Committee
to report some plan whereby San Francisco
can secure the trade of Utah. 1t is stated
that the enterprising merchants of Chicago
have already secured the bulk of the Utah
trade, and they will be very likely to retain
it. The merchants of San Francisco are too
selfish and old fogyish to compete with the
liberal and enterprising Chicagoans. Let
them wake up and adopt a more liberal trad
ing policy if they desire to even hold their
own

A WARM SpRINa-The cheyenne


Leader of December 2Sth says:
A letter from one of the civil engineers
on the Pacific Railroad thus describes a
pond of warm water in what seems to be
crater of an extinct volcano near the North
Fork of Humboldt river, in Nevada: "
must tell you about one remarkable natural
curiosity we camped near-a curious hot
spring. 1t is situated in a crater about
two hundred feet in diameter, on the top of
a knoll which rises about fifty feet above
the river. In the bottom of the crater is
long eliptical pool, perhaps l5O feet long
in one direction and 70 in the other-a
mammoth tub in shape The depth of
water is unknown, no lines brought here
having been long enough to reach the bot
tom. In one part the water is just hot
enough to enable the hand to be held in
it, and the remainder of the pool varies
from this to luke-warmness. The walls
are nearly vertical, and you can imagine
the luxury of plunge into it with no fear
