S~PooSER's SrATIoH.-The business
transacted at Spooner's Station, the
summit of the Sierra, on the roat.
leading from Carson City to Lake

time. At the point indicated "A large

at this point a large StOrehouSe and
placed therein a heavy stock of goods
suitable to the requirements Of the To-
cality. The business So far exceeded
their expectations that they have been
forced to run freight teams day and
night for some time past. Several car
loads of goods were landed at Truck e
a short time since, and hauled to the
western shore of the lake, from there
treighted across the lake i'll their OWN
schooner. thence by team to the store.
The immense amount of business
transacted in the mountains west OF

allie its immensely.

Meder, an old and favorably known
resident of Carson City, and who, some
years ago, kept the Ormsby House, is
busiIy engaged in having that popular

dated state of that part of the house
forming the corner of Carson and Sec

is W be torn down and rebuilt. When
this is done, it will make the hotel an
extensive and comfortable one for the
accommodation Of the travelling pub

CHRISTMAS,

Perhaps Of all those that hail Christ
mas with that which is most appreciated
by the Savior, is The joyous welcome Of
the children. Strange that the kind deeds
of an individual sheald serve to bring
honor and love 10 he Savior from pure
hearts out Of all christian nations. Yet
such is the fact.
St. Nicholas, from which sprang the
Santa Claus of to-day, set light for the
Little ones beside the Savios's birthday
that seems destined to last while time re-
mains or where the Bible is read. There
are few supercillious ones who are so
afraid Of sins of commission that the sin
Of omission is forgotten. Such ignore
Santa" But to those that realize that
all our blessings comes from an unseen
hand, it is beautiful emblem, and serves
to instil into the minds Of the little ones
a love for and inquiry into the reverence
of that greatest of all events to fallen man,
the birth of a Savior. E.E.B.
