call incidents of many years past, il
which one of our now. well-to-do cit
liens was a party TO. 1t was this
Many years since, the nameless indi
ridual was living in an Eastern STATE
wherethe said now famousTom resided
and superintendent of a local railroad
and who for q considerable length OF
time WAS furnished with a pass over
the road by Thomas. This same party
referred to lived i'll the town with Tom
for many years and is cognizant of his

NEVADA FRUIT.-S. \. kinsey. Of
Genoa, on Tuesday last, took by rail
to Virginia city, one TOT OF plums,
said to have been very large and ex-
cellent flavor. The season for Califor
mia plums having passed, the fruit
commanded a high figure, not only in
consequence of Its scarcity in market,
but that it was a choice lot. a fact soon
discovered by our neighbOr mountain
town folk. We understand that there
are a number of very fine orchards in
Genoa and in different localities in
Carson Valley. 1t is really painful
when we realize the fact of our inabil-
lty to get down that way to participate
in the choice fruits now getting ripe.
The numerous invitations from friends
in that locality will be attended to
shortly.
