BOLD RoBBERY.-During Wedres-
day night the store of Louis Gold
stone was entered and a lot of pants
and blankets taken. Three clerks
were in bed in the store at the time.
We learn that two supposed the
other clerk was up, as he had not
been we'll during the previous day,
therefore paid no attention to the
noise. In the morning the loss,
amounting to about Sl20, was dis
covered. This was a very bold rob
berry, considering that a lamp was
burning brightly, and three men
sleeping in the room. There is no
clue to the perpetrators, but it is
suspected that there were old hands
at the business engaged in the job.

SILVER CENTRAL CONSOLIDATED
A mine which is attracting consider
able attention is the Silver Central
Consolidated, consisting of two loca-
tons, the Silver Central and Carson
Consolidated, incorporated under
the laws of California. 1t is at Sill
yer City, adjoining the Kossuth, and
is the next mine south of the Day
ton, on the line of the lode. The
property contains 81 acres and 5000
feet of ledge, L. S. patent. The man
groupings of the Ravine pass
through the Silver Central Consoli-
dated, and good rock is being taken
from and below the surface, and pay
ore extends from the top down so
far as prospected, yielding by mill
process $50 per ton. There is an in
cline shaft down 80 feet. A new
perpendicular shaft sunk between a
fork made by the Phelps Occidental
lode from the main ledge, is down
$50 feet, and is we'll timbered. In
100 feet more this shaft will strike
the main ledge. The Company are
now contracting for first-class hoist
ing works, and are developing their
mine in earnest.
OF the capital stock 10000 shares
have been set aside as a working
capital, and We're recently put on
the market here. These are selling
at the bedrock price of 81 each in
the Board, or may be procured of
the Secretary of the Company, Mr..
Lucian Herman, 1856 Pine street. No
other stock is offered for sale, being
owned by few men who have been
interested in the mine from the
start, and who hold it closely for
high figures, which they have every
reasonable expectation of obtaining,
as the mine is the most promising in
its neighborhood, and is one of the
few which will pay from the surface
down. No assessments will be call
ed tor, as the reserved stock will pay
all expenses till the ledge is reached.
The Silver Central is not vehicle
for speculation, but a sound, thor
oughly worked, and skilltully man
aged mine. - s. +. Stock Report,

A Juror. - In taking notes in
Virginia City we were rather puz-
zled to know the meaning of such
crowd assembled round J. Hender-
sons dry goods store. We passed
in and found ourselves in the midst
of a dense mass of closely packed
humanity, purchasing as eagerly as
if it were a matter of life and death.
1t was business all over, no respect
of persons. One incident was truly
amusing. Two ladies of the city,
holding a piece of silk between them,
each claiming the privilege of first
purchase, and holding on firmly,
evidently endorsing the old princi-
pie that possession is nine points
of the law" whilst the clerk, by his
bewildered look, gave evidence that
he was no Solomon to give judg-
ment in the case. Our time being
limited, we had to leave the clerk
and the disputants to settle the mat
ter. The rush is so great that the
door has to be closed from II to to
place the stock in saleable lots. At
INN. they close business for the
day. They request us to apologize
to their numerous visitors for their
apparent rudeness in refusing them
admittance after that hour, but it is
absolutely necessary for the conduct
of a business of such compulsory
nature.

SUSPICIOUS CHARACTERS.-Of late

number of roughs from various

en- man, when found in a dark place.

on their guard, lest these scamps
carry off their treasures.

1t matters not what your troubles may be,
come and let the Doctor examine your case.
1t will cost you nothing for consultation, so
please call and satisfy yourselves whether the
Doctor understands your case. If he can cure
you he will tell you SO ; if not, he will say SO,
for he will not undertake case unless he is
confident of effecting a cure.

YOUNG MEN,

Who may be suffering from the effects Of
Youthful follies or indiscretion, will do well
to avail themselves of this, the greatest boon
ever laid at the altar of suffering humanity.
DR.. Spinney will guarantee to forfeit five hun
dred dollars for every case of seminal weak
ness or private disease of any kind or charac-
ter, which he undertakes and fails to cure.
He would, therefore. say to the unfortunate
sufferer who may read this notice, that you are
treading upon dangerous ground when you
longer delay in seeking the proper remedy for
your complaint. You may be in the first
stage-remember you are approaching the
last If you are bordering on the last, and are
suffering some or all of its i'll effects, remem-
Der that if you obstinately persist In pro
crastination, the time must come when the
skilful physician can render you no assist
ance; when the door of hope will be closed
against you; when no angel of mercy can
bring Won relief. In no case has the Doctor
failed of success. Then let no despair work
itself upon your Imagination, but avail your
self of the beneficial results of his treatment
before your case is beyond the reach of med
ical skill, or before grim death hurries you to
a premature grave.

Nlidile-Aged Men.

There are many of the age of thirty to sixty
who are troubled with too frequent evacua-
tions of the bladder, often accompanied by a
slight smarting or burning sensation, and
a weakening of the system in manner the
patient cannot account for; on examining the
urinary deposits ropy sediment will often
be found, and sometimes small particles of
albumen will appear, or the color will be of a
thin or milkish hue, again changing to a dark
and torpid appearance. There are many men
who die of this difficulty, ignorant of the
cause, which is the second stage of seminal
weakness. DR.. s. will guarantee a perfect
cure in all such cases, and healthy restora-
ton of the genito-ufinary organs.
n. B.-Only an interview required in ma
jority of cases; balance of treatment can be
conducted at home without interruption of
business. No case treated without personal
interview and proper examination. Office
hours-l0 to L. to 4, and 20 8. Consultation
Free. Examination and advice. So. est

ED. REPUBLICAN:-Af a rather
short, cool summer, autumn has
come, and already two cutting frosts,
that have scred the late green vege-
tation very badly. But the crops
were pretty good all over. Farmers
are now cutting up their corn and
buckwhea the latter is a bOuutiful
crop and many will have an abun-
dance of clap jacks the coming Win
ter. Plentiful rains have fallen of
late, helping the fall blowing and the
sowing of winter wheat Besides
fruit and vegetables being abundant,
the wild forest is yielding plentifully
of nuts, such as hickory, walnut, but
ternut, chesnnt, becchuut, &c. But
farmers produce is very low and
money scarce and bard TO get, so that
laborers find it rather hard living.
Cheese factories are in operation all
over the country, but it is only ten
cents per pound on an average. But
after all Improvements are going OH
OF some kind: dwelling houses, school
houses. aud meeting houses are being
built or added to: and roads. bridg-
es, ad3 harbors, are being imp owed.
The health generally is good The
fall and winter schools are in pros
porous and successful operation. EX-
cursions on the II. Il 5 have been the
order, and run every week all sum-
mer, and lately school, Sunday school,
tea-meetings and picnics. y few
shows have gone through during the
summer, and now next week is to be
the Provincial Fair at London.
Yours. as ever,

The Presidential Visit.
From the st. Louis Republican.


President Grant, accompanied by
Judge Long, Maj. Newcomb, and Col.
Fred Grant, visited the new custom
house yesterday morning. and was
shown through the works by Mr.. Thos.
Walsh, the superintendent.
The wOrkmen, numbering some four
hundred, anxious to pay their respects
to their President, gathered around him
and gave him three hearty cheers. Many
of his old soldiers, at work on the build
ing. shook him warmly by the hand and
welcomed him to their city. The Pres
ident scrutinized the work on the build
ing very closely, and expressed much
satisfaction over the gigantic proper
tions it is so rapidly assuming. He was
much surprised to learn that the iron
work was not prepared in st. Louis
when such great facilities are 50 near at
hand for getting the iron. Later in the
forenoon President Grant, Col. Fred
Grant and wife, with the friends who
accompanied the presidential party.
went out in carriages to the Presidents
farm on the Gravois.

science? While Paganism has DESTROY
ed the force of conscience, and cor
rupted its teachings, has it lowered
the idea of God, does it worship the
creature instead of the Creator, the
tree instead of its maker? Does
Christianity e-establish the law of
conscience, searching the Intentions
of I he heart, develops human laws.
and draw out the religious nature of
man in worship to. Fan Almighty,
beneroleM ahd Just God? Where law
does not, cannot reach, there con-
science enters and sways a scepter
dreaded more than all the terrors of
the law. Kings and Shepherds own
lis strong control, and where the law
may fright lis thousands, conscience
makes ten thousand fear. If con-
science demands the right eve, the
hand, the foot, she has the power to
enforce her great demand. Who gave
conscience that aui horitv? Who put
the religious disposition into mans
nature, who wrote thc moral law
within that nature, and why do both
find there perfection in Christ? Does
Christianity make void that law, or
does it est0J4ish that law through
faith in Christ? What if we have
sinncd, has a day been appointed
in which God will Judge the world
in righteousness md Christ not M"re?

The National Issue for 1915 Defin-
ed.
Yours. as ever,
WM. T.. CHUTE.
st. Louis Republican Sept. IL.

Whether wisely or mwisely. this
money question has been made the
leading question in two great States,
when, for the time, little else is thought
of, and there is nothing left us but to
await the result. In Maine, where both
parties demand hard money, the canvass
is lifeless and insignificant; nobody
cares about it, ard very few even think
about it. Public attention is drawn to
the West and riveted on the issue in
Ohio, because all hands agree that the
national issue of next year is being de-
fined there. Ii the Democrats carry
Ohio and Pennsylvania-and it is evi-
dent that these two States are mutually
helping each other-two' things may be
accepted as settled: first. that the West
will control the presidential election;
and second, that anti-resunption and
the abolition of the national bank sys-
tenn will be the leading plank in the ma
tiOnal Democratic platform.

A Big Tree for the Centennial.

A California paper states that a gen
tleman is preparing Il large piece of one
of the Tulare county big trees to exhib-
it at the Centennial next year. The
piece of timber selected is sixteen feet
long and twenty-One feet IN diameter at
one end, and nineteen feet at the other.
The heart of this will be taken out, leav-
ing only about one foot of the body OF
the tree attached to the she'll or bark.
This outside shell will then be divided
into eight equal parts, each of which
will weigh tour thousand pounds with
out the bark. 1t is necessary to divide
it inio that number of parts in order to
allow it to pass through the numerous
tunnels between here and Philadelphia.
The eight parts will weigh between
thirsy thousand end forty thousand
pounds, and will require two cars for
their transportation. One solid foot of
this tree Weighs seventy-two pounds. be-
inc ten pounds heavier than SO much
water. This timbeg was taken out of
the General Lee, 20 tree two hundred
and sevcnty-iiye feet hfgh. and which,
had it been sawed into lumber, would
have produced sufficient quantity to
have built a very respectable young
town or large ship. 1t contained more
than two hundred thousand feet of lum-
Der, besides, probably, about two hun
dred cords of wood. The General
Grant, much larger tgee than the Gen
eral Lee, and the largest in the world,
growing in the same grove, is lett
standing, probably for the benefit of fu-
ture generations.

The Saline Progress says: There
are 100000 acres of land in Saline
county. We believe. too, that as much
as four-tiflh hs of the land i'm the cOun-
tv is in cultivation. This, then. makes
384, 900 acres in cultivation. We be-
lieve also that at least twO-thirdS OF
this is in corn. as most Of the acreage
sown in wheat last fait was plowed
up and planted in corn last spring.
We then have about 5000 acres i'll
corn. Supposing it to average ten
barrels to the acre, it will yield p
$50. 900 barrels in ALL One-fOurth of
this amount is ample for home con-
SUMPTION. which leaves 100000 bar

The capture of the Democratic party
in Pennsylvania by the Enf'ationists will

phasize the discussion of the currency
question in this State. There is Il full
month for the debate in Ohio before the
election, and with each day the real is
sue (that of the currency will become
more prominent, and the concern of the
whole country in the contest will aug

tent observers, that if the Democracy
win the State, the Democratic party
will be carried headlong and by whole
