The Meeting Of the State Board OF
Centennial ManaH gers.

The following, from the Carson APP
peal, is synopsis of the proceedings OF
the Board Of Centennial Commissioners
at their meeting on the Goth instant, at
the Office of the State Mineralogist, at
Carson: The Board was represented by
the following gentlemen: Messrs. Steven.
son, Yerrington, Rice. Leete, johnson,
Whitehil. Curtis Judge Mckinney,
proxy, and Miller IL. Il, Bradley,
proxy.
resolution was introduced by Mr..
Whitehill to the effect that all action re-
garding quartz mill at the exhibition
be postponed until the next meeting of
the Board, at which time it was thought
it could be more definitely ascertained
what Professor Kustel proposed to do In
regard to certain suggestions heretofore
made by him. The resolution was
adopted. (Kustel, some time since, re-
ported that the foundrymen OF San Fran
cisco would furnish l0-samp mill
gratis, and set IL up at Philadelphia; and
he, Kustel, offered to go on and take
charge Of it, without remuneration, save
for his travelling expenses).
It WINS moved and carried that when
the Board adjourn it adjourn TO meet on
Tuesday, Nov. 30th.
| Aresolution concurring in the sugges-
tions of Superintendent of Public In
struction Kelley, relative to the prepare.
ton Of essays upon local subjects. by the
pupils in the public schools, with view
to their being passed upon by Com
mittee on Education at the Centennial,
was adopted.
After recess Attorney General Kittrel
appeared before the Board and stated
that inasmuch as there were some doubts
as to the power of the Executive Com
mittee to draw on the Cent, nnial Funt
appropriated by Act Of the Legislature
he hoped that the members OF the Su
preme Court would be invited to give thei
opinion on the subject. Accordingly tn,
Judges were invited to appear before tn,
Board. The three members Of the Cour
soon presented themselves, and afte
some discussion and deliberation, exam
ination Of the Act and the minutes o
the committee, etc., Judge Hawley il
behalf of the Court, gave it as their III
official opinion: First that 1t did nc
require majority Of the Board to tran,
act business, but that five members wer
enough; and secondly, that a quorur
had no right TO delegate their powers
committee; also that the State Boar
were alone responsible for carrying OF
the statute appropriating moneys.
It was moved and carried that Ii
, acts and business transactions OF the +,
> ecutive Committee be ratified up
date.
Following is q report Of the moneys O.
pended, as per order Of the Executi'
,, Committee

EXPLANATORY Recent discoveries in
medical science have demonstrated that
much of what has hitherto been deemed
i'll temper. egotism and coarse disregard
OF the feelings Of others or the proprie-
ties OF life, are nothing else than disease
of the nervous system, and the individual
afflicted by it, instead OF being an object
OF dislike, and even hatred, as hitherto,
is more properly entitled to our commits.
GRAFTON and sympathy. DR.. Brown
Sequard tells of lady at the English
Court who had to retire from it on ac-
count Of a prompt way she had OF saying
to any person, even the Queen. with
whom she differed on the smallest mat
tors: "You are very stupid" "What
nonsense" This Is madness in you, +"
and such light and complimentary
phrases. Victoria could not stand it
and 30 she went her way. Now, any.
body but doctor would have thought
that woman was simply an i'll tempered
female, with a peculiar blunt and dis
agreeable way of speaking her mind; but
medical science stepped in and showed
that she was. in reality, an angel in dis
position, and only acted 80 because some
disease with q polysyllabic name made a
disastrous sympathy between her nerves
of hearing and those Of speech. DR..
Brown-Sequard also tells OF one of his
young patients who, by somewhat
similar affeotation, was impelled to startle
people from time to time, in the course
of conversation. by slowly and impress.
sively circulating, Hoo! Hoo! Hoop
Superficial observers might have deemed
that owlish exclamation idiotic, bu,
medical science says, "No, it was only
her nerves. ~ Exchange.
Now this explains good many things
generally thought strange. If you do 1
man favor and he returns your goo(
Offices by base ingratitude you mustn'
mind it, It's only his nerves. II you OBJ
serve a man trying to open his from
door at a. m. with toothpick you ma.
set down the cause Of such strange con
duct as abnormal condition OF the nerv
GUS tissue and so on. There's nothinI
like understanding these things properly
