CARSON CITY:
Tuesday September IA. 1878

P. Kelly. The Sabbath School scholars
were present in great numbers, making
the services doubly interesting, as with
clear, childish. voices they joined the
choir in rendering appropriate chants
and hymns. Mr. kelly's subject was
1.-The Naughty Figs" taking the text
from jeremiah 9th chapter and second
verse: lone basket had very good figs,
even like figs that are first ripe; and the
other basket had very naughty figs,
which could not be eaten, they were SO
bad" From the beginning, the Rev
erend gentleman held the attention of
every child briefly telling the story of
the figs as found in the Bible, he went
on to compare bad children to them. in
PRODUCING little rhyme TO be committed
to memory:
You may think you're sInart.
Ton may think you're big.
And only be naughty NJ.
Girls, said he, are more apt TO
think they are smart, and boys, to think
they're big and brought forward a
fund Of anecdotes TO illustrate his asser-
tions; q happy hit was made. when, in
showing the effects of bad companions
upon boy or girl, Mr.. Kelly said, You

ACCIDENT AT THE MINT. A large
quantity of sulphuric acid which had
been hoisted up to tie refinery and was
standing on the elevator, got capsized
yesterday by some sort of n mistake on
the part of the party at the hosting
works, below. The splitting took place
Immediately over the Office of the Meter
and Refiner. Luckily for Mr.. Bryant
and his assistants they were not in at
the time or they could hardly have
escaped drenching like unto that that
came upon the doomed cities of TIE
plain. 1t actually rained vitriol for the
space of several minutes, right down
through the ceiling. OF course every
thing that was touched by the quick
eating liquid was destroyed-everything
but such as was enveloped in glass, as,
luckily, some of the scales were. Some
things, books. etc, We believe were
finally rescued by men with blankets
over their heads and gum boots on, tho
we should not fancy wading through
sulphuric acid india rubber, for We be- ,
lieve that the gum is soluable in vitriol.

JOHN KERsLY always has good deal
o. energy to put into his work, whatever
that work may be. Everybody knows
that John is running the Warm Springs |
Hotel. 1t never was so we'll kept as now,
and never were SO much pains taken to

devouring public. To accommodate
those who would like to do so, Mr.. Her

past eight or nine, and oftentimes ten |
o'clock in the evening. They set the
best kind of a table there now, and din
ner and breakfast parties can be served
in elegant style by leaving their orders
in due season. As to the baths, like |
Cleopatra pusson, they beggar all de-
scIiption.
The Town BOARD was in session last |
evening, all the members present at the
opening of the meeting. The bridge or
aume crossing on Carson street at the
st. Charles Hotel, was ordered repaired.
An ordinance was ordered drawn similar
to the one now in force in relation to
houses of prostitution, specifying there
in the new limits recently ordered by the
Board, the same to be submitted at the
next meeting on Monday evening. the
10Th instant. A petition was received
from the Carson City Gas Company re-
questing permission to use portion Of
the street or sidewalk in the vicinity OF
the Railroad Depot. There seemed to
be no objection to granting the request
contained in the petition.
