utYE PATCH SCHOOL CLOSED. The
ltye Patch public school has closed for
dhe summer, and the pretty school
ma am is going to Reno. The young
men of the camp are quite Respondent
over the sad event, and indulge in q
genuine boo. hoo everv time they
think of her depaztare. The Patch is
enshrouded in gloom, and no less than
twenty strappins miners have told the
fair one that they never thought they
loved her so until she is going away.
Possibly some of them may yet prevail
upon her to remain, but as the old
adnge has it, " Too many lovers will
puzzle a Maiden" and it is probable
that she is so perplexed that she will
give all of them the mitten.

THERE have been so many jokes
about the age of Gov. William Allen,
of Ohio, that the majority of the people
have inadvertently acquired habit of
looking upon him as a sort of a second
Methuselah. According to his nephew,
Senator Thurman. the venerable Gov
ernor is only 60 years old. This
would seem to show that the stories
regarding his presence at the battle of
Bunker Hill and at Ticonderoga are
lacking in historical accuracy.

CAPTAIN HARPER, Deputy County
Assessor of Lander county, started out
last week on an assessing trip, and
when he got to Smith Creek he saw a
wild flower growing by the roadside
that he thought would be just in his

horse, and as he stopped to pluck the
flower the horse thought he saw new
kind OF grass growing on the summit
of mountain, and started off to get
some of it. Harper chased the animal.

weary that he could have violated his

The distance from Smith Greek to Aus

made it in the unprecedented time of
four days and one night.

TALENTED PRISONERS.

County Jail--A Table Dancing a
breakdown.
There are three prisoners confined
in the County Jail, one under indict-
ment for capital offense, the others
serving out sentences. Previous to
their incarceration in the Humboldt
Bnstile, SO far as is known, none OF
them exhibited any extraordinary tai
ents. Confinement seems to have had
a wonderful effect on them, and one
has developed into poet of no mean
order. if his productions are original,
and the others into spiritual mediums,
endowed with power to call mp spirits
at any moment. and set chairs whiz-
zing in any direction and at railroad
speed. Last evening party met in the
Sheriff's Office to witness the perform
ance of the mediums. whom the Sheriff
permitted to leave the Jail to give an
illustration of their wonderful and
newly -discovered powers. In the pres
ence of the visitors, among whom
were several ladies, one of the mediums
laid his hands on large table when

were burning at tie time, and no wires
or deceptive devices of any kind were
used, though the medium showed
symptoms of fatigue at the close of the
performance. Some skeptics who were
present fancied they could set the table
in motion by will power. but failed
in their attempt to do so. Several
questions were asked the spirits sup
posed to be present, but as it was i'm
possible to decipher the mediums
hieroglyphics the correctness of the
answers could not be determined. If
anybody has any doubts as to the abil-
ity Of those mediums to move chairs
and tables by simply laying their hands
on them, they can visit the Jail at any
time during the day or evening, and
satisfy themselves that it can be done,
and that so far as is known there is no
hunbug about it either.

ALUM1NoUs IDEA.

The Sioux Falls Independent makes q
dash at us this week on railroads. From
its articl3sge cut The following:
First, SScgards the north and south
road-whatis the first principle that enters
into monopoly9 We answer opportun-
-i::s; for clearly, -if-one has opportunity
to monopolize thing there is no ito
be very badly injured. This proposition
is also true-that the better the opportu-
unity the greater will be the monopoly.
This boing granted, let us apply it to the
case Of railroads. From Sioux Falls to
Sioux is say ninety miles from Sioux
Falls to St. Paul (thc nearest place where
We could expect any competition in rates
of freight is say 800 miles; now, where
are we the most likely to be blea in
rates; on the ninety mile road, or on the
three hundred mile roadl
For metaphysical dissertation on ex-
treme nothingncss, the Independent man
can step to the head of the class. 1t is
80 miles, he says from Sioux Falls to
to Sioux City. tits 800 miles from Sioux
Falls to ST. Paul. Consequently it is not
advisable to build road to st Paul, be-
cause itwould cost moro to carry wheat
there than it would to Sioux City. Act
ing upon the presumption that Sioux
City and st. Paul are the two ends of the
earth, and that all the grain raised it the
Big Sioux valley is to be consumed iu
one of the tive places, the independents is
right. But that is prcs1ming more
than the farmers of the Sioux valley arc
Wiling to admit. five were to accep,
the logic Of the Independent, we should
feel inclined to go still further, and rec.
commend that very small railroad be
built-say about a milo long. 1t would
not cost rs much to transport wheat over
one milebf railroad as it would over the
ninety miles to Sioux City, or the three
hundred miles to st. Paul. Then, if the
independents argument is correct, the
farmers could put down in their pockets
as clear profit the difference in cost o
freighting the grain to market.
