learn that one of the most destructive fires that
has ever visited Truckee broke out Front

Hotel, and was caused by defective stovepipes
The fire spread rapidly, totally destroying eight

lers, also fourteen fifteen buildings on back
street, consisting of saloons and dwelling houses.
and thirteen dwellings of Chinatown; also the
Central Pacific freight depot-1o0 buildings in
all. At one time it was thought almost impossi-
BILE to save Wells, Fargo e. Co.'S and the West
ern Union Telegraph Offices, but through the un-
remtting efforts of j. Z. Dooly, Wells Fargo x
Co.'S agent, and A. r. Schiraly, Western Union
Telegraph operator, they were saved. The re-

THOSE who are so active in the third
party Temperance movement, that in
one or two counties Of the State is in
danger of defeating the Republican
caudidats AMI securing the election Of
the Democratic nominations, would
do well to refresh their memories by
n review Of the history ofthe temper
ance movement from the first There
are a few facts which should receive
special consideration, and which are
still SO fresh before the public as no,
TO need elaborate argument:
First. The original "Mainc law
was passed without the intervention
or aid in any manner Of temperance
party.
Second. All subsequent legislation
favorable to temperance in the New
England States, aud as far as known
il all the other States, was enacted by
the Republican party without the aid
Of temperance party.
Third. That all Temperance parties
have been cphcmeral in existence
have divided and distracted the tenn
perence ranks have been productive
of evil instead Of coed, and have ex'
hibitod weakness instead Of strength
Fourth. The defeat OF the Repub-
lican party is the defeat Of the only
source from which Legislation tavora
bic to the cause can be expected.
These arc matters that are worth
attention and thought on the part o.
those who are sincere in their desire
to servo the cause. The course Of thu
leaders of this poli,icio.moral faction
is becoming so imprudent as certainly
to expose their motives to suspicion
and to them and their followers We
commend these reflections.

gloss and freshness Of youth. Thin
hair is thickened, falling hair checked,
and badness often, though not always,
cured by its use. Nothing can restore
the hair where the follicles are de-
stroycd, or the glands atrophied and
decayed; but such as remain can be
saved by this application, and stimu-
lated into activity, so that new
growth of hair is produced. Instead
of fouling the hair with n pasty sedi-
ment, it will keep it clean and vigorous.
Its occasional use will prevent the hair
from turning gray or falling of, and
consequently prevent badness. The
