The Dolly vardens.
EprroR News: The Dolly vardens are
in council; they met in tho Senate
Chamber at noon to-day and started
that little ball which is going to roll
over the hills and dalss Of the State Of
Nsvada-providing it don't bring up
against q hay stack in washoe Valley.
OF roll down shaft No. 2 Of the Sutro
Tunnel. The meeting was called to or
der by Knox Of Rsno, who nominated DR..
S. A. McMssns for the position Of tenn
porary Chairman. The Doctor was, Of
course, elected. and mounting the stand.
he drew . handkerchief with stars and
bars e~mhlazonsd ON II, and proceeded
to business.
As I gazed upon the Doctor, presiding
with so much dignity over this motley
asssmblago, / thought Of the good old
days now gone, mover TO return. My
thoughts flew back to the early days OF
washoe, when the worthy Dootsr would
watch the arrival Of the pony express
and later the telegraph wirss-to learn
the news Of how badly ''them damn'd
Yankees had been whipped by our peo-
pls;' and 1t all seemed like q dream. 1
thought Of the good old days, whom II a
man had said that there would ever be .
railroad into Virginia, or that DIR. Nc
Mean, would ever bo found in political
s~tiliation with any but tho rankest kind
Of secessionists, he would have been
pronounced insane. But see the won
ders worked by time. You have a rail-
