SAT- Billed. -" Gunboat SAM" az
he is Familiarity known, called into Glib
fried's restaurant yesterday about dinner
time. Sam was in the condition he usu-
ally is when his visit to Phoebe has been
prolonged beyond reasonable limits. He
cannot stand contact with boon compan-
ions, they generally tire him out-this
was his condition when he entered the
restaurant. His first demoniac yell was
to the waiter to bring him q plate of
soup and five "biled" eggs, ''saft," at the
same time doubling up his fist over his
head to enforce the demand. Sam re-
ceived the soup and had commenced eat
ing it when the idea struck him that
those five "saft billed" had not come to
hand; such neglect on the part of
the eggs not boiling in time to
suit him aroused his ire, aud he yelled
out at the top of his voice, ''say, bring
me those five saft billed eggs" The
waiter stepped up to Sam and told him
in the blandest tones imaginable that the
hens had lately been taking a holiday
and that the consequence was that no
billed eggs could be delivered. Sam
can look; arose hastily from his seat, and
without deigning to pay for his soup,
left the restaurant muttering something
about Mormon hens never having hol-
iday.
FROM VIRGINIA-The following was
taken from letter received last evening
from we'll known former resident of
Phoebe, now in Virginia City. He says.
" have no steady employment as yet,
but great many promise. If do not
set to work soon 1 will leave here-per-
haps go back to Phoebe. am complete
ly demoralized loafing. Most Piochers
here are in the same fix" The letter
was written on the day the funeral of
Barnum W. Field took place. 1t can be
seen by the above that Phoebe is about
as good place to tie to as any other.
