The Public Library's Last Drawing

In response to letters and in- quiries, we do not hesitate to say in the most positive terms, that the Fifth Concert of the Public Library of Kentucky will take place February 27th, beyond the possibility of doubt. The death of Gov. BramIette does not inter
 fere with the business of the office as the Board eff Trustees hove a-- pointed Hon. c. Nj. Briggs (Guv. BramIette's Inv partner and the active manager heretofore, tocon- duet the office. All the money se- Ceived is safe in bank, and will be paid to holders If prizes Im- mediately after the Drawing, and with the same certainty and promptness as heretofore. The Drawing will take place as an- nounced, and those who secure prizes will get their money be- yond the contingency of a doubt.

DIED.

In Yuma, f6DTudTy IOGn, CPEED S
 WHITE, aged about 35 or 40 years
 Deceased arrived here late last
 fall, in the last stages of consump- tion. For while he seemed to
 have means to support himself,
 but recently he asked to be taken
 under charge of the county. To accomplish this, he was obliged to make oath that he was in dis titute circumstances, which oath he took. He was then placed in charge of the proper authorities and had all the care and attention, both medical and otherwise, that any man could have anywhere. He was concious of his approach ing end, and spoke of it to his medical attendant two days be- fore hn died. Last Monday morn ing he quietly passed aWay, and in the evening he " buried with all solemnity ana respect, the writer Of this re- ing the Episcopal burial service at the grave. On examinatio of the effects of the deceased, by the Public Administrator, over one hundred and fifty dollars in money, and prOmisory notes to the amount of over twelve thOus- and dollars, were found. His sister, Miss Sallie White, of Hal- leck, Buchanan Co.,, Mo-, has been informed by telegraph of his death.
 In Yuma. February 17th, VIM. A. SIM. MONS, aged about 25 years.
 This young man came from Prescott, about four months ago, so far gone with consumption that he could not speak above whis- per. He was destitute of means and became county charge. He received all possible attention.
 It may not be improper to re- mark here, that while this cli- mate is undoubtedly the most favorable in the world for persons predispOsed to pulmonary diseas- es, yet it cannot save those whose lungs are gone or who arrive here in dying condition. And while our people are as humane as any ln the world, it is hard that Yu- ma county should be put tc the expense of medical attend3nce, and sustenance while living and h'rial when dead, of person who have contracted their diseases elsewhere and come here a. last resort. If Yuma is to be made the worlds hospital, it would not be more than fair that the coun- ties from which the indigent sick come, should contribute to their support here and pay for their funeral expenses. The above cases were both helpless when they arrived here. One of these young men said to one of our physicians, Doctor, I will give you five hundred dollars if you will cure me-" The doctor saw and comprehended the case at a glance, and replied, My friend, you had better give your money to God Almighty, for no human skill can cure you"

HENRY DOCKwEILER, ESQ. , one of the old fathers and main stays of Los Angeles, Cal ,who has

We hope for the speedy recovery of Mrs. Dock weller and that Henry will soon return to the Territory, for he is a live man and a good energetic citizen. We are glad to be able to say that he has been taking out a large amount of very rich ore from his mines, and that he is in good heart and perfectly satisfied with his prospects.
 But MT. DOckweiler's forte is hotel keeping, Every body who knows anything, knows that hO- tel keepers are born, not made, and Henry is one of them. You can't make a hotel keeper out of every man, any more than you can make a silk purse out of a sow's ear. We have alively re- collection of many a good meal at Henry's table when he kept the Lafayette Hotel in Los Ange- les.
 But those happy days are over, and now the genial old landlord is turned into a lousy but rich miner. Come back soon, Henry,

"REMINISCENCES of THE WAR.

| uOW otOppIHS u0I0, WdlClDS IOI the steamer for San Francisco, that officer related some incidents connected with his scouting in Arizona. Among these was one in reference to a recruit who the lieutenant brought with him. This recruit was fresh from "Em. erald Isle." Lieut.. King was so amused with the wit of this "broth of a boy" that he composed the following poem from what he heard him drop to his companions about his experience in scouting. By our earnest persuasion the Lieutenant permitted us to pub- fish it:

 And boots that are "bOats" for all that, Me old indigo bags, now are nothing but
