Fon THE UNDERSTANDING AND SOLE.

FoR THE UNDERSTANDING AND SOLE.
Nothing appeals to the human under
standing more forcibly at the present
time than defective boots and shoes.
During Winter weather especially, all
should keep their soles we'll protected
with the very best Of articles In that
line, and the proper place to trade ut
for these desirablcs Is Brown Sc Tas-
sells new boot and shoe store, South
e street. Virginia. opposite Smith
street. These gentlemen arc success
sors to K. NJ. Black, and ecu the
same location that he did before the
great fire. Their stock Is all new,
well selected and extensive, compris-
ing ladies, gents, misses, boys and
childrcn's boots and shoes OF all de-
scriptions and prices. They have also
u full stock Of leather and findings,
make goods to order in the best style,
and also do repairing with neatness
and dispatch. As to prices, no one
has cause to find fault In that respect.
Read Brown L Tassell's advertisement
In another column and give them a
call. They especially invite Gold
Killers to visit their store.
FRANK FARuNGToN.-Our old local
chum, Frank c. F~arington, who went
out to Japan n year or so ago as Prl-
vate Secretary to United States Minis
ter belong, has since then become
quite 4 prominent and important per-
sonage among the Japs. Mastering
their language and working his way
into influential favor he ut length be-
came chief superintendent Of all tho
mines of the Japanese Government,
with the privilege Of wearing all the
swords he can pack. We understand
that he is now In San Francisco for
the purpose Of purchasing requisite
milling and mining machinery, and his
many friends in Gold Hill, Virginia and
throughout this section will doubtless
have the pleasure of meeting his genial
smile and friendly grasp soon. A
pretty little Japanese gem of a tor
toiSe shell box received by us a day
or two since rs q New Years
present from Frank, shows that he
does not forget his old friends and
accomplices.

'BUssINa EXTRAORDINARY. - Tho
snow along c street, Virginia, is so
unevenly distributed that 1t Is too
rough and risky for the regular
wheeled omnibus, and on the Gold
Hill side of the Divide there is no
snow for slcighing. Under these ad-
verse circumstances it would seem out
of the question to operate n bus line
betwcon the two places; but the In
domitable Jake White, unwilling to
give in to the clements, gets over the
difficulty to-day By running a bus
sleigh through T. street to the Divide,
and his regular omnibus from there
down to Lower Gold Hill. The trans
fer of passengers OF tho Divide Is rather
unusual, but not inconvenicnt, and
thus they get L sloigh ride and . bus
ride all for tho same price. Where
there's 4 will, there's u way" Jake
Is bound to do the thing somehow.
Haight drives the sleigh, and Jake the
bus.

Hall. The ladies propose asserting
their popularity conceded peroSative
on this occasion, and we presume will
do the gallant thing BY the gents,

due attention to them in every respect.

DIsArrEARED.-That solitary case of
smallpox at the lower end Of Gold
Hill, opposite the Rhode Island mill,
imported recently direct from Chicago,
has disappeared, the young lady hav-
ing entirely recovered. Better yet, no
other cases have resulted from 1t, II
climate or atmosphere evidently not
being favorable to the spread Of small
pox at present. Had tho young lady
not contracted the disease In Chicago
and brought 1t along with her she
would have been obliged to do with
out it.
GovsRNoR BRApLEY.-0ur chief En-
ecutive, Governor l.. II. Bradley, Is
spending 4 few days about his ranches
In ElkO and Lander counties. He
may be expected at the Capital within
a day or two. So says the Carson
Rs1istrr.
