take pleasure, we recommend them r.
take a trip to Shekels' ranch. distant
twelve miles from this place. The pro-
prietor has made great improvement in
the building, and now has comfortable
rooms and good beds. To those who
a v taken meals at this house it is nm
necessary for us to say anything, but to
those who have not, we can recommend
the cooking and eating arrangements of
the ranch as being the best in the State
OF Nevada. For proof Of what we saw
we refer to Centennial Commissioner
Frank Stewart, who recently stopped at
this hotel to take dinner. while on his
way from Cherry Greek to this place.
After Frank had gorged himself with the
good food of Mrs. Shekels, he prevailed
upon his companion-Whitehill-to Law
over a day, declaring that he had not
eaten such a meal since he left his
mother. Whitehill did not need much
coaxing, so they staid. Frank thought
that three months of that kind of living
would make him resemble George Tufiy.
