relative taxes and expenditures of the east ard
west sides of the river The figures show that it
was not for wards 5, 6 and TO object to street
lights on the west side, on their sham ground Of

A Cat In Church.

A big yellow cat OF the Tom variety,
having no home. and owning no master
or mistress. has OF late made his home
In and about the Methodist Church.
His s~eclusion from tho haunts Of incl
has made him exceedingly wild. which
has impaired itself to his eyes, SO that
in tho dark they look like the headlight
Of n locomotive, and when no has been
sitting on the front steps, Of a dark
night, strangers passing tho church.
thought II was the round.house OF the
Austin and Battle Mountain Railroad.
The cats favorite nook il on tho big
pedal.bass Of the big church organ. and
II was there no was crouched when SER
vice WINS opened yesterday morning.
When the organist took her seat she
thought she would come down q little on
tho pedal.bass, just to start tho thing
and give some sound q chance to circu-
laio through the church before 1t began
10 Ill up with melody. When sho came
down ON the peial.bass, that cat camo
up from it, and no camo up into the
body OF tho church like n ten-horso
power s~ky-rocket. "what goes mp
must come down." and that Thomas
cat camo down into an nislc. where ho
surlsd up his back till his fore and hind
feet touched. aud looked astonished.
His fur stood straight up. and his eyes
stuck out like u sore thumb. and,
altogether. he was the worst scared cat
in America. Tho ladies' commenced
gathering their skirts around their feet
and getting ready TO stand up in their
pcws and squall, when tho pastor opened
q door. and the cat shot out M though
ho had been propultcd by a mountain
howitzer.- - X. X. Rsueile. Nay 2ih.

there lived in this city a young man

the home OF his parents. in Frederick,
and these two brothers were no nearly

intimate friends had great difficulty in

In course Of time these two brothers
moved West. aud David reared n family
at Indianapolis. Indiana. while Jessie
followed his example in Missouri. A
few weeks since David died ut his home

graphed to and at onco wont BY rail to
attend tho funeral. He arrived only n
short tine before the funeral services
were performed. and when the friends
Of the deceased had assembled he
walked into their midst with the widow
clinging 10 his arm. His appearance
acted like a shock Of electricity upon
tho assemblaec. few OF whom had ever
seen him. A number OF Indies, fully
convinced that the dead had been mira
culously restored TO life, screamed and
tainted AWAY. and no less than seven Of

surd rumor about W. @. Ralston. which
has boon bruited about for the past fow
days, and gravely remarked that.
where there Is SO much smoke, there
must be some nro;" thus conveying the
impression that there might DO some
foundation for the rumor. We have
heretofore taken pains to remark. that
the story Of Mr.. Ralston's failure or
embarrassment. was absolutely without
shadow Of foundation; that IL was the
work Of mAlevolent persons, and had
for its object, not only annoyance and
injury TO him. but tho unsettling Of the
money market. disturbance Of values,
and with these. q further pressure upon
tho stock market. Mr.. Ralston has
taken pains TO dony explicitly. that any
portion Of the rumors circulated con-
corning his financial affairs, arc true or
likely TO be so. This ought to be
enough. not only for the Journal. but
the whole community.

J. Skinner left Old England soms two
months ago With the intention Of court
ing the hckle goddess Of fortune In the
New World. A miner by occupation. he
at length brought up in California. and
sought tho mining campo OF that State
In vain for employment. He arrived In
this town on route for Idaho. On Tues.
day afternoon. and after securing his
passage TO his destination. retired TO rest
at the Central Hotel. On waking in the
morning, he was astonished to fnd that
some ouss had got away with his ward
robe. leaving him destitute Of the where
with 10 cover his naksdness. To make
tho situation still darker. in the pocket
Of one OF tho purloined garments was
the check for his baggage, which had
been left al the depot, thus cutting of
NIL hope Of relief from that source. Tho
| thief was captured by tho Waterman. and
the missing property returned to Its
owner. when q worse sorrow broke up
on the stranger. He was detained by
tho Law officers as q witness in the case,
and kindly permitted to pay his own
expenses. He can't see the end OF the
difficulty yet. but Acknowledges that
winnemucca Is tho liveliest town he has
struck for many q day. and Ia delighted
with tho impartiality Of the law that
makes no little distinction between tho
wronged and tho wrong-doer.
