face at grating. To open that cell
with skeleton key was the work of a
moment, and before they we're discover
ed the professor and young Schurz were
on the parapet. They lowered them
selves ON the rope and ran to a small
patch of wood, where two feet horses
were concealed. They escaped to Lon

LEADER HERE AS ELSEWHERE.
In 1862 Mr.. Schurz immigrated to
this country. He naturally became a
conspicuous member of the genuine Re-
publican party. He was delegate to
the Chicago Convention in 1860, taking
a leading part in its proceedings, and
was selected by President Lincoln in
1861 as Minister to Spain. When the
war broke out he resigned and returned
and was appointed a brigadier-general of
volunteers. He participated in the sec
ond battle of Bull Rnn and in the bat
ties of Charlottesville, Gettysburg and
Chattanooga. He was the President of
the Chicago Convention of 1868 which
nominated Gen. Grant, and was elected
to the United States Senate as Repub-
lican, to succeed John B. Henderson of
Missouri, and took his seat March 4,
1869. A few years ago, through the
influence of Prince Bismarck, the Ger
man Government removed his disability,
and in recognition of his genius extend
ed an invitation to him to revisit his ma
tive land. The whole American people,
without distinction of party, will wish
him pleasure and a happy return.-Neao

HOW TO SAVE THE CHILDREN

Hearth and Home remarks that one
of the most important subjects to be con-
sidered in the care of a young child is
that of diet, both in regard to regularity
and quantity. 1t is a very common
practice to feed babe when it cries, as
if it were nothing but stomach, and
had no other demands than those of hun
ger. There are many things a child
may want, and many ways in which 1t
may be uncomfortable, and its only Ian
guage is that of crying. Infants doubt
less cry oftener from overloaded stomachs
than from hunger, but it is the theory of
many to stop the cries by filling the
mouth, which only brings temporary
quiet. A child's stomach needs rest
quite as much as any other part of the
body. and if it is fed all that it wants
at regular intervals, mother may be
sure that her child is not crying for
want of food. Three hours is consider
ed by many physicians a proper inter-
val, but those of delicate organizations
need to be fed oftener than those who
are stout and hearty. AS the child
grows older, the intervals can be gradu-
ally heightened. These rules, however,
are scarcely applicable until baby is a
few weeks old. The habit of feeding
child of any age between its regular
hours for meals is positively injurious,
unless there be some special reason for
so doing.
The habit of tasting food at the table,
allowed to children by many mothers. is
very pernicious, not only being injuri-
Gus physically, but cultivating an un-
healthy demand for and desire to try
eyery kind of food that comes within
sight, causing the mother much unnec-
essary care and trouble. When child
first asks for unsuitable food it may be
taught that it is injurious and the mat
ter be easily disposed of, providing al
ways that some kind child-comforter
does not give the first taste. The bene-
fit of bathing, think, is very generally
admitted. A full bath, once each day,
serves not only to keep the body eleanly,
but also as tonic For this purpose it
is important that the temperature of the
water should not be too high, as very
warm baths are weakening. A healthy
child will soon find tepid bath more
agreeable than very warm one, IT the
bathroom was sufficiently warm. 1t IS
very good rule of hygienic institutions,
that for all tonic baths the rooms should
. be warmer than the water. A full bath
may be given daily with beneficial re-
suits, under favorable circumstances, at
all ages. The importance of ventilation
: in the nursery can hardly be overrated.
The necessity of pure air to health we
all understand, and. if essential to adults
how much more important to the sensl-
: tive lungs and organs of a child! A
practiced physician told me that in his
opinion Group was very often produced
by children lying on the floor at play
: and sleeping in trundle-beds or low era
: dies, and thereby experiencing the un-
} der-currents of cold air, and breathing
: the carbonic acid gas which settles to
: the lower part of the room.

A WONDERFUL CAREER.

THE Romance Ia the Life Of a Statesman
acho Sailed for Europe on Saturday
"A .. S. Senator Officially limited
to Germany.
On Saturday Senator Carl Schurz
sailed with his family in the Deuts-
chland for summers pleasure trip in
Europe. The Senator had been quietly
stopping in this city for a few days
among his many friends and admirers,
who with music and cannon and the
waving of handkerchiefs as the steam
ships cast her moorings bade him a
hearty goodbye. The Senator intends
to visit the principal European cities,
particularly those of the Fatherland.
Carl Shcurz was born In Iiblar, near
Cologne, March 2, 1929, and studied at
the collegiate institution in Cologne and
afterward at the University Of Bonn.
He went from the university dreaming
of German Republican Confederation.
He became the editor of liberal news
paper. He fostered the revolutionary
spirit which eliminated in actual hostil-
tiles near the year l946. Abandoning
his editorial chair, he joined the ranks
Of the revolutionists. taking part in the
defence Of Rastadt. Defeated, he fled te
Switzerland, thence to Paris and Lon

correspondent for three years.
BANIsHED FOR LIFE.
Meantime the Prussian government
exiled him for life, and the decree wa:
| that if ever found on German territory
he should be shot. His favorite profes
sor in the University of Bonn had beer
meantime imprisoned for life, and youns
Schurz resolved to liberate him.
A certain German air was the grea
favorite of both, which they often play
cd and sang together. A London organ
maker made a hand organ for youn|
Schurz, and among the German and Ital
ian airs which it played was the profes
sors favorite. Then Disgusting himsel
as an Italian peasant, and secreting

officers, and was then admitted to tn

with experience and in time, he will
learn to do away with such notions and
''do in Rome as Romans do" He more
over will learn to gather his 'bosta" in
his "carral, /" and cease longing for the
coal of Pennsylvania or the forests of
New England. He will learn with in
difference the swarms of feas which are
ever ready to annoy him, or the blood
thirsty 1benchacars' which visit him in
his sleeping hours. He will learn to be
contented in his mud hut, with straw
thatched roof to prepare tea or mate
for the ''Sonoras' and .'Soncrias" when
they honor him with visit, and with
true philosophic spirit, overlook the run
ming away of his horses by some thiev-
ing "Guacho." He will learn when
lost upon the plains, to trust to the in
stinct of his horse, rather than his own
reason. He will soon learn from expe.

THE MODERN BELLE.

The daughter sits in the parlor,
And rocks in her easy chair;
She's clad in her silks and satins
and jewels are in her hair
She winks and giggles and simpels,
And shippers and giggles and winks,
And though she talks about little,
'Tis vastly more than she thinks.
Her father goes clad i'll russett
And ragged and seedy at that
His coats are all ont at the elbows,
He wears shockingly bad hat;
He s boarding and saving his shillings,
So carefully day by day,
While she, on her beaux and poodies
Are throwing them all away.
She lies in bed in the morning,
Till nearly the hour of noon
Then comes down swapping and snarling.
Because she was called so soon.
Her hair is still in the papers,
Her cheeks are dabbled with paint,
Remains of her last nights bushes,
Before she intended to faint.
She doats upon the unshaven
And the men with flowing hair"
She's eloquent over mOustaches,
They give such a foreign air,
She talks of Italian music,
And falls in love with the moon,
And though but mouse should meet her,
She sinks away in swoon.
Her feet are so very little,
Her hands are so very white,
Her jewels are so very heavy
And her head so very light;
Her color is made of cosmetics,
Though this she never will own,
Her body IS made mostly of cotton,
Her heart is made mostly of stone.
She falls in love with a fellow
Who swells with foreign air,
He marries her for her money,
She marries him for his hair;
One of the very best of matches
Both are well mated in life,
She's got fool for husband,
He got fool for wife.

The Piric.

We received yesterday New York
exchanges containing full particulars
of the excitement in Wall street on
the receipt Of the news of the suspen-
sion OF Jay Cooke & Co. The follow
ing from the Word will serve TO con
vey some idea Of the panic:
Amid the rush and fall while i'm
mense blocks OF stock were shuffied
off upon a staggering market, came
full confirmation OF the fact the mere
suspicion of which had worked such
a tremendous whirl for the reception
Of the fact itself. The Exchange at
last went crazy when, at ten minutes
after twelve, a brief announcement
was made by the President OF
the Board. 1t was true. then, JAY
Cooke & CO. had suspended. \ brief
silence followed the news, and then
an uproar sucl, as has scarcely filled
the Exchange since it was bUllt.
Messengers fled every way with the
St'i VI lblii' w u'"h "is NV
line. Western Union had been at
SSis ; in ten minutes it had lost ten
points. No halves, or quarters, or
eighths were recognized in the sud-
den crash in that stock. A legion Of
brokers, whose margins were swal-
lowed UP in an instant. swarmed into
the Exchange to ave themselves by
sudden sales, which with every mo.
ment sent prices further down.
Tho struggle and crush, the desper-
ate fShting Of BUYERS and sellers,
the lrjumph of the short interest and
the I,nic of the bulls. made the toss
ing. surging n pandemouium
which recalled the darkest hours OF
Black Friday. Net content with the
disastrous fact, the bears heaped upon
it false report after false report, in
volving the oldest houses In the
street. 1t was their time of trump phi,

The Narrow-Gauge Once More.

We apologize in advance for allud-
Ing again to this subject. 1t is true
that the enterprise is dead beyond
the hope Of resurrection ; yet a word
in reply to several iil-tempered filings
in tho White Pine Netcs seems neces-
sary. Tho Neus i. angry with the
SErINEL because the SENTINEL dem
onstrates OH all occasions the i'm.
mense resources of Eureka, and adj
vocates a direct line of railroad con-
Meeting at Palisade, IS the surest
means of promoting the interests of
this section. The Nevs may vent its
spleen at will !; Eureka will enjeavor
TO get along without its friendship.
But now 4 ord of the railroad.
We have stated that Palisade is the
most eligible point from which TO
build a road TO the southwark. We
believe that statement to be entirely
correct. In the first place, such a line
Colorado river, would be much short
or than any other route. That the
country through which it would pass
is as favorable for misunderstanding
as any other route proposed, no m
familiar with The topography OF the
country will for y moment question.
The only heavy grade on the Whole
route is found in crossing Diamond
Mountain i'm nediately south of Eu.
reka. This has been determined by
actual survey &c be not over 100 feet
to the mile. On the Elko ana Himil-
ton route the grade at or near Jacobs
Wells, is largely in excess of the
above figures for several miles. The
distance from Pal.sisie TO Phoebe is
tnirtv-siH miles less tn!n from Elko
TO Phoebe, and over a much better
route. The route We advocate would
pass Just as close to Hamilton and the
mines Of White Pine as that
from Eiko. and better still the
people Of White Pire would thus
secure rail c%onnecti.n with the Cen
trail without paying d zingle dollar in
subsidies. If the IS would but
study the interests OF The tax pay ers
OF its county, instead Of attempting
to detract from the importance of
neighboring communities, it would
not be long in arriving at the conclu,
son that cur theory of the proposed
railroad is the correct one. We charge
the -Ners nothing for reminding it of
its duty.
