Carson daily appeal. [volume] (Carson City, Nev.) 1873-1877, 1873-09-19

JOHN Doe IS q man OF SO much good
useful fibre, that he worked for ffteel
long mouths in one of the Carson Rive
quartz mills, and never missed da,
curing the entire time. Some day!
since he go: notion into his head tina
he would take a trip to the Eastern State:
and see his friends and relations there
and so he drew what money was due t.
him from his employers and purchase
home ticket. Then he thought b;
would take Q parting jollifcation before
he left the sage brush, and that's how i
happened that he got himself fuddled
and into the station house. He was
confronted with the local indicator OF
outraged law and was fined fifteen dol
lars. He paid it and then had between
five hundred and six hundred dollars in
his buckskin. Instead OF going off on
his projected journey, he staid about the
Carson groceries: and IN week time
he was hauled up again and had to pay
n fine of $50; and yesterday morning
officer Newhouse arrested him for the
preparation of the third oflense conse-
quent upon his spree, and only three
hundred, out OF his five hundred and
Odd dollars were to be found upon him.
When he was for the third time arraigned
before Mr.. Justice Witherell that magis-
trate frowned upon him as upon an incor-
rigible offender and 1nulcted him in the
sum Of $50 and sent him to Jail for two
days-hoping to sober him and keep
him and his three hundred dollars from
being dissolved III rum and evaporated
in alcoholic fumes. We hope the two
days Of his experience in durance vile
will be practicable and profitable tenn

the other side of the Rocky Mountains
or return TO his honest toll Now what
in the name of hard drink is it that these
poor fellows get that pats them so soon
and SO inevitably to sleep? A stout,
hearty fellow with stomach like an
armyssmuie, and plenty of Drawn and
health and muscular strength Will take
half dozen toddies and then 60 right
straight and make his bed upon the
public walk. Is the whiskey of the
cheaper and less respectable saloons
doctored?" Does the ordinary rot-gut
of commerce contain cocculus indicus, or
fish berries as it is limited it does?
Or will any sort Of lush, even lager and
claret. thus put a man to sleep? Ger
tain it is, at any rate. that the potables
obtained by certain class of heavy
drinkers is amazingly and suddenly and
irresistably soporitic; and in behalf of
the more genial phazes of guzzling we
wish that this were otherwise.
A. 3. DR1EsBAcH is doing the hand
some, now, in the way of house building;
and in this respect, as otherwise, shows |
himself in the lead of his neighdors.
Without any notion Of giving up his |
present comfortable and elegant dwelling, |
chanic, to put him up another house, for |
rent, on the corner Of Fifth and Division
streets, or, for the sake of nearer des-
cription, on the corner opposite Mrs.
Jone residence. on the spot, now clear
ed off, where Long King used to live.
The foundations of the upgoing strue-
ture have been laid amply and substan-
TALLY in brick walls, Of which, besides
the outer bounding one, there are two
others included which form 4 holy cross.
The outer wall, three feet high, is pro-
vided with numerous ventilators; SO that
the first floor may be as free from damp
ness as if it were the second. The
building is to be of only one story, how
ever. It measures 4Sx2S, with a ceiling
II feet inches lin the clear" 1t is to
be provided with vast windows all
the same being those which
formally let light into the defunct Court
House Of Washoe City. 1t is to be div
ded off into a parlor, three sleeping
looms, a dining room, and kitchen on
hat corner which looks towards the
southwest. Mr.. Harry Peters, the newly
married, who has much responsibility
'esting upon him and discharges the du-
les of his delicate Bank trust q marreiHe
We are told, will go to housekeeping in
his mansion, when finished, and thereby
add to the pleasantness Of that
'lready pleasant neighborLood.
FRoI CAP'N PRAY we learn that the
lame of the young man who lost his
land at the Lake Tahoe Saw Mill on
was Daniel Arnold. The
dging saw caught his right hand just
inside of the little finger and cut it clean
IF, the outcome of the slit being just t
