cheons TO be In all respects aliEe.
They are to start at 8 O'Clock r. M;
and continue to walk constantly until

Each man Is TO have an allowance OF
sseen minutes In each t~wenty-four
All moneys received at the door are
to be equally divided between kanayan
and Sheppard, after all bills for print
inc, advertising, ETC., shall have been
Maid. The match Is to be conducted
bv a committee, who are empowered
to appoint referees, time-keepers, etc.
THE match cannot fail to create great
interest. Both men are In excellent
training. Kanavan weighs about lis
pounds, and Sheppard 13S pounds,
when in walking trim. kanavan Is
considered to have the advantage OF
his opponent In weight. kanayan Is
fifty-eight years Of age, while Shep-
pard Is but twenty-six. Each Is COM
pactly built, with muscles like wire
and with no surplus flesh. Each feels
| confident that In the other he has a
| competitor who will be hard to beat.
Kanayan's feats in walking are we'll
| known to Californians, and arc unsur-
passed; although, perhaps, not u OF
them required greater powers OF en-
durance than did Sheppard's last walk
of 1O5 consecutive hours, which was
performed under the most ~unfavorable
circumstances Of surroundings and foul
atmosphere.
Last night Kanavan favored us with
a call, accompanied by his apparently
fast friend, Jack Sheppard. He seemed
rs lively as q boy Of eighteen, and
spoke with as much nonchalence OF the
approaching walk rs though it were
going to be one to the Grand Hotel
and back. Said he: "People meet
me on the street every day. They say
sHallo, Jim, what's this | hear Of You?
Are You going to walk ngain?,,

MOUNT SuAsrA.-A party lately as
cended Mount Shasta from the north
east which, has seldom been attempted
before. Among other curiosities
found near the summit, is a large sui
phur spring spouting boiling water
from Its mouth. Wherever a level
spot could he found, it was covered
cred with thick ice. A correspondent
says
The view from the summit was
grand beyond description. All the
world seemed In full view. The ocean,
klamath Lake. the sources Of the Sac
ramento and Pitt rivers, tho mountains
which begirt Oregon. the Sierra Neva-
das, seemed as pismies in comparison
TO the vast height they occupied, burst
upon the view, affording n wondrouS
and sublime spectacle. Upon the very
apex they found III Odd Fellows re-
gala, which had been placed there ttt-
teen years before, a San Francisco BW-
letin, of date OF August 10th, 1866, and
a register, upon which had been en-
rolled the names Of all the visitors to
this lofty pinnacle.

CHARLEY BRYAN STILL A DEM
OCRAT.

In the Elko Independent Of Wednes-
day we find q speech, delivered BY
Charley Bryan before a Democratic
Club in Elko, In which occurs the fol-
lowing sentence:
The anal close Of tie civil war having been
reached under President Grant In the Last two
yfa[ n;o the a sSs Tf q S.r ri i ~. d 5Is%SsSnd o.
Wonderful discovery! Charley Bry-
an has evidently chopped" horse,
foot and dragoon- Charley used to
look like a dragoon when he rode his
race.horse Lodi" which proved his
financial ruln.> He has gone into the
knot-hole of the Democratic camp; and
he is a good illustration, just now OF
an anecdote we once heard him relate
in a political speech In Gold Hill in
the Fall Of 81. He said that when he
wa a green young boy he visited a
neighboring village, and before enter
ing the place he saw a tannery. The
good old tanner, for fear strangers
passing along the highway might not
recognize his vocation, had nailed a
Calls tail on the front Of his principal
building, right under a kuot-hole, so
that people who might pass along
would see his sign and know that 1t
was a tannery. When passing, on the
occasion above spoken Of, Charley
stopped, looked at the Calls tall, and
seemed bewildered, perplexed, aston
ished. In fact, he kept walking up
and down the road for at least half an
hour, to the great annoyance of the
tanner, who at last came forth from
the lanyard and wanted to know
"what In hill he had been staring
at for the last half hour?" Why"
says Charley. 81 was just wondering
how the devil that calf got through the
knot-hole and come to let his tail hang
out So" Charley Is just In about the
same fix as the calf's tail for the tan
ner's sign.
But Charley Bryan never was n Re,
publican; he says so himself, and right
t. uthfully, no doubt, although he was
once voted for and elected to an office
By the Republican party. Here ID
what he confesses:
Those Of us Of the Union party OF this STATE
who are not Republicans, and never were, arc
now 10 be denounced a. "bolters !"-principloi

From the Elko Chronicle.l
Between Rcpublicanism and Dem

American can hesitate In his choice.
TO "A candid. uncommitted mind, there
Is surely nothing inviting l n the alti-
tude OF the party which has done
nothing In all these stirring years but
resist with all Its might every effort at
the preservation of their government,
and at the attainment OF 4 higher
plane of civilization, and more humane
and equitable laws, which the Amer

In n better cause might be called n

from cooperating IN any wholesome

such a record staring every thinking
man squarely In the face, written on
every institution in the land, whether
financial, commercial, social, religious
or moral, who that Is not totally and
ignomlnlously blinded by ignorance
and prejudice can hesitate for one
moment as to his duty to choose ut
once the side Of progress as against
that Of stupidity and retrogression?
The path Of duty "a so plain that the

WE hear Of an uncommonly active
and practical woman In Decatur
county, Iowa. This Is Mrs. Crosby.
Mr.. Crosby Is q justice of the peace,
and his better half Tor shall we say two
thirds ? serves processes, summons
Jurors, subpnnas witnesses and does
the general duty Of a constable: 1t
must be dreadfnlly aggrayating for a

officer IN p~etticoats; but n woman who
can reap n harvest of grain with a
s~elf-raking machine, as Mrs. Crosby
has Just done, Is evidently n person not

capacity. Probably the good lady las
but little time for suffrage conventions
and speeches, and possibly but small
inclination to attend the n or make

A Young Lady Gored to Death.

From the New York herald, Jnly 4th.l
most horrible scene was enacted in the
barnyard Of Samuel Craft a wealthy farmer
residing about two miles south Of the village
of Glen Cove on Sunday sfternson, the Sd
by which his sister was gored to death by al
iuturisted cow. Miss Craft stepped out of
the house to feed brood of young turkeys
when COW that was walking about the yard
rushed madly at her, striking her in the left
side. crushing her arsinst the fence, and
tramping and Roring her in n terrible man
ner. Her screams attracted the attentio of
a laborer named Sheridan, who hurried to
her rescue, and partly stunned the brute b.
a blew from stone. 1nis, however, added
TO her fury, as she renewed the attack, toss
ing the unfortunate woman numerically
with her horns, and rsuding clothes and
flesh alike. Sheridan again struck the an
imal blow with stone, which had the
effect of knocking it down, while two of the
sisters bore the body away. The animal
soon recovered from the effects of the blow,
and again made furious charge on the
party, but Sheridan kept her back with
and evidently being determined to kill the
ladies but the body was finally conveyed
from the yard.
The lady, however, was fully conscious all
the time, and, as she expired, said "She
mas killed me!' Her face and body were
terribly bruised. There was a frighttul
and deep laceration ia her left side,
which caused her death. She was gen
orally respected, and had many and warm
friends
