HEAVY" BET.-Two old pards, Dr..
TaIcott and Glover tof Mint renown),
each waxed warm, last Wednesday, in
discussing the merits Of their respective
watches-a pair of $40 turnips, Ros-
kopf and an Oreile. OF course, each
held his watch to be the better of the
two: and in order to settle the question
they agreed to hang up their valuable
time pieces with a matchmaker for
twenty-four hours, and the one that kept
the best time. it was agreed, should win
the other. They put up the stakes with
Mr. Henschel, jeweler at Fo1's, who
decided in favor of our massive friend,
the Doctor. Glover tried to play it off
for joke, but the Doctor couldn't see it
in that light. Glover was like the little
boy '.in fun but not SO with the Doc
tor. So with as good grace as possible
the surrender was made-which might
not have been made if somebody had
told Glover that Henschel had over
hauled Talcott's turnip just before the
test

Henry Charron, a Canadian French

hand where he had 6rasped it. The

hot steel, and as this was removed the
blood flowed profuseiy. During the
afternoon Charron was lying in bed with
no sign of the puncture on his neck
except an infamed spot where the steel

TEAvZLERs.-Araold Friend and Scrip
ture, who left Carson several months ago,
have been enjoying q delightful trip Of
hunting, fishing and Photographic
sketchiuy over the grand and charming
country between this place and Big Trees
via Silver Mountain. There are q dozen
specimen sketches sent by Scripture to
Mr. DeNeuf and on exhibition at Fox's
book store, which represent the most re-
markable places on the way, known to
old timers by association and interesting
10 all by their wild and picturesque ap-
pearance. They write that they have
killed more game and caught more
mountain trout than they could con-
sumo. They reached the Big Trees
Hotel on the first of August, whereupon
Arnold sailed out to reconnoitre and
saw deer and deer tracks without end,
but had to hold off till the expiration of
the game excise law on the 18th. The
San Antonio runs by within mile and
a quarter from the Big Trees. Friend
and Scripture Will probably locate there,
make dams and devote themselves
among other things to the culture of
fish for which there is q good market
near at hand.

A DISTINGUISHED NlsIro2.-General
A. L. Page, part owner and General
Superintendent of the Phoebe and Bull
lionville narrow gauge railroad, was in
the city yesterday. The General has
been, for several days past, travelling
through the southern part of the State,
in company with Dr.. Munckton, look
ing at the Dunderhurg and other mining
properties down in that section of the
State. He speaks in high terms Of the
Dunderburg, and were it not for the re-
moteness of its locality from transpor-
tation facilities, it would not be allowed
70 remain in its present normally de-
yeloped condition. We hope General
Page viii shortly return and undertake
the development of mines in Esneralda
county, as he is of that kind of metal
needed down that way to give new life
to the county. He left on the 1915
train last evening, en- route for San
Francisco, where he will remain for
short time to attend to business requir-
ing his attention: from that city he will
go directly to Phoebe

BIG Row.-Between six and seven
o'clock, yesterday evening, the neigh
borhood was thrown into excited COM
motion by the report of pistol in lump
Winston's saloon, followed by a noise of
wrangHng and loud talk. Hank Luf-
kins, it seems, had been playing at faro
and lost one hundred and twenty dol
lars, when he got up from the table and
put down some twenty-five or three dol
lars, saying that Winston, who owed
him a hundred dollars on horse trade,
would settle for the balance. This Is
his story. The other side claim that he
demanded hundred dollars from the
game--an institution altogether indie
pendent Of and separate from Winston's
personal affairs. This is not great
deal clearer than mud, bu: as clear as
i. could be made to inquirers after the
row was but shortly squelched. Luf-
kins was drunk, at any rate. and a quar-
rel ensued between him and the dealer,
Duncan, during which the former drew
sixshootcr and discharged it VERY
presumably at the latter. The pistol
was leveled on a range between the case
keeper bright and the dealer, the
bullet from which passed downwarls by
tbs latter and buried itself in the wall
Just behind him on level with the
table. The Sheriff came in few
moments later and Lufkins gave up his
pistol to him, but continued noisy and
spiurged around in spite of Swift's best
muscle and well meant endeavors to
pacify him. This sort of scrimmage be-
tween law and disorder could not last
always, and resulted in the Sheriff be-
ing obliged with the aid of the sur
rounding posse, to choke Off his pris-
oner, in self defense. who was then
dragged away to Jail in spite Of his

FINE SpoRT.-After the sun sets in the
afternoon and twilight begins to tLicken,
night hawks appear in considerable
numbers lowering and darting about
over the boggy grounds west of the
Warm Springs Hotel and in front of the
State Prison. They offer in heir IN
certain flight excellent exercise for
marksmen and frst-rate test of skill in
the use Of the shotgun. They axe not to
be hunted: you are not required to 60
and find them; they come to you There
IS a prejudice among some sportsrnen
against eating them, while others esteem
them delicacy. The prejudice against
them arises probably from the fact that
if shot after they have been flying awhile
their crops are found stuffed with mos
quitoes, gnats. and every other sort of
bug that fools around over marshy spots
near the ground after sunset. The Pri-
son Guard exercise themselves on the
grounds occasionally with unknown sue
cess. These gentlemen look very mill
tary in their elegant cadet uniform, and
Judging from the manner in which they
captured a bittern last Sunday they must
be fine shots.

NEvADA's DEAF AND DUMB.-A. y.
Fisher, State Superintendent of Public
Instruction, left Carson on the 1915
train last night for the Berkeley Asylum
near Oakland. Cal, taking with him two
deaf and dumb boys. who were sent to
their homes in Nevada during the close
Of the Asylum for the Summer. One of
tho boys, Edwin Cuthbert, from Clear
Creek, has been learning the shoemaker's
trade in connection with his other stu
dies, and has become quite proficient;
the other boy, Mcclure, from Union
Vile, is only eight years of age and has
not been long enough at the school to be
greatly advanced, although he has been
taught pretty well in the sign language;
and from being as wild as baboon when
received into the Asylum has bacome
tractable and docile. There are eighty
pupils in the Asylum altogether, Of
which Nevada furnishes only these two
a remarkably small proportion, COM
pared with the number of school chill
dren in the State.

An Original Trick.

The New York World has an account
of sublimely audacious and original
robbery lately committed at Baltimore.
A lady-like looking woman entered a
jewelers. shop, selected a quantity OF
valuable articles and begged that the
assistant might accompany her home.
To this the jeweler readily assented,
and the clerk went off with the would-be
purchaser. In the outskirts of Balti-
more they drove into grounds and APP
preached a large house. Alighting from
the carriage they were shown into a
room where presently a gentleman
Joined them. With this gentleman the
lady had conversation of apparently a
very confidential nature, which the clerk,
no doubt, thought related to the contem-
plated purchase But the real tenor Of
it was that she was placed in most pain
full dilemma. The young man whom
DR.. - (for the gentleman was direc-
tor of private lunatic asylum saw was
her brother. His intellect, alas, was
sadly diseased, although, like so many
others in the same unhappy condition, q
stranger would discover no signs of delu-
sion. She did not know what to do with
him for a very few days whilst she was
STAYING at Baltimore. The unhappy
young man was penetrated with con-
viction that she run off with a quantity
of his jewelry, and raved about this,
never leaving her night and day. She
was we'll nigh worn out, and at length the
idea had struck her that il the doctor
would be so kind as to detain him for
twenty-four hours she could meanwhile
make further arrangements fer his proper
surveillance. The doctor was at last in
duced to assent, the lady suggesting that,
on the plea Of shoYing him something,
he should get him into the next room.
The clerks suspicious being entirely
lulled by the evident respectability Of
the surroundings, accompanied the doc
tor into his room, where they remained
for few minutes, having left the lady
in the other room with the jewels. She,
Of course, lost no time in making tracks.
The clerk presently grew uneasy. The
doctor endeavored to detain him with as
snrances that all was right. Presently
the unfortunate young man made for
the door; it was locked, and the doctors
straight-jacket gentlemen made their ap-
pearance. Then came the story about
the jewelry, for which the docter vas
fully prepared. The clerk raved and
beseeched, but received little attention.
However, when the "a hours passed and
the lady didn't appear, the doctor listen
ed to the clerks prayer that be would at
all events send TO q shop named, and
ask whether 3 clerk with q quantity Of
jeWelry vas not missing. OF course,
The reply vas that they we're convinced
that the clerk in whom they bad reposed
perfect conscience had absconded. So
the harder vas ont Whether the
woman has been caught ve cannot say,
but bolder hand has surely rarely sx-
isted.

MEMPHIS, TENN. FRIDAY EVENING, AUGUST 20, 1878
A Frensh ourioaiiy.

Several German newspapers have re-
ceived from France a geographical map,
which gives an interesting insight into
the manner in which the propaganda
for the Bourbons is carried on. The
map is superscribed :" La France des
Bourbons. and on it the part where
Paris is situated, and the part around it,
consisting Of the departments Of Seine,
Seine-et. Disc, Seine-et.Marne, Oise-et-
Loiret, and colored brown. An inscrip-
ton here informs us that this is the
France which the Bourbons received. "
All the other departments, with the
exception of Vaueluse, Alpes de Mer,
Savory and Upper Savory, are colored
in white, with golden lilies; Vaucluse
is colored in abrownish black, and Alpes
de Mer and both the Sayoys light brown,
with the Napoleonic eagle in the middle.
The inscription teaches us that Vaucluse
" was acquired partly by Louis Xl in
1887, partly by the first republic, which
confscated the county of Venalssin, the
property of the Pope, in 1871. or
the two Savoys and Sea Alps it is said,
"Ceded to Napoleon III in 1860" The
department OF the Upper and Lower
Rhine, Moselle, Meurthe and Vosges,
are colored partly entirely black
(Alsace), partly black at intervals, and
have, respectively, black and black and
golden lilies. To this we read the fol-
lowing remark: Reunited Tor con-
quered) by Louis XIV 1910 Tor Louis
XIV, 1861, lost by Napoleon III in 1870,
cedad lin part to Prussia by the Re-
public in 1871. reconquered by - in
the year -" 1t would probably little
interest our readers TO enter upon the
details of the acquisition of the separate
departments, but it may be mentioned
that, according to this French state
ment, thirty-two departments were ac-
quired by marriage or inheritance,
twenty-seven by conquests, ten by con-
fiscation, sixteen by more or less doubt
full treaties, and four by escheat. The
marginal notes conclude triumphantly
thus: &c 1t will be seen from this that
the Bourbons have added to France
eighty-fve departments and Algiers.
The first republic added half depart
ment, and Napoleon III three depart.
ments. On the other hand France has
lost three and half departments during
the reign of Napoleon Ill and the repub-
lie, and these departments were the rich
est of its whole territory" We will, in
conclusion, mention the annexation to
Algiers: Last and royal present made
to France by Charles X before he went
into exile in $780," We have to make
no comment on the subject.
