LIFE.-Prof. Swing preached sermon to
young men in Chicago, recently, and gave
his theory Of life thus: "Throw down the
god money from its pedestal, tranlple that
senseless idol under foot, set up all the high
er ideals, neat home, vines of ones own
planting, few books full of the inspira-
ton OF genius, few friends worthy of be-
ing loved and able to love in return, hun
dred pleasures that bring no pestilence,
devotion to the right that will never
swerve, a simple religion empty of all big
otry, full of faith and love, and to such
philosophy earth will give up what joy It
knows"

How Ills Honor KNEW ABOUT IT.-At a
recent trial in the Elko County Court, says
the Nevada Silver State, our friend Bschofl
OF the II umboldt Brewery was called rs a
witness. Mr.. Bischof is one OF the "solid
men" Of Elko, where he has been in busi-
ness since the town was started in the win
ter OF 1858. Upon being sworn, Counsellor
Rank, one of the attorneys in the case, who,
by the way is an old resident OF Elko, said:
"Mr. BischoG, where do you reside2"
"Where l residef What for you ask me
such foolish things? You drink at my
place more as a hundred times" "That
has nothing TO do with the case on trial,
Mr.. Blschoff; state TO the jury where you
reside" "De shurryi de shurryI Oh, py

ceded in the counsellor's behalf, and in a
calm, dienified manner requested the wit

SPAYING Cows.-Mr. N. R. Ds-
Wis, whose stock ranch is on Owl
creek, twelve miles south of this city,
began this season the spaying of
young Texas heifers recently driven
up. About four hundred of his
heifers have already been operated
upon with very good results, as only
two are known to have died. 1t is
claimed, and the claim can be sub
stantiated, that spaying makes a
heifer as good for butchering pur-
poses as a steer, while when perform
ed ON dairy cow the result is an in
rease of one-third in quantity and
equal increase in richness of
milk. Mr.. Tiff tried the experiment
last year, but the process employed
wss not the proper one, and his ex-
pertinent is considered a partial fail
ure. 1t was performed on old COWS
while Mr.. Davis is spaying young
heifers entirely, and is well pleased
with the experiment thus far. When
spayed cattle arrive in the Chicago
market a rush is made for them by
tire butchers, who assert that, while
they are not as heavy as steers, their
flesh is tenderer and juicier, thus
commanding a better price in the
market.

An Odorous Subject.

We refer to the city dump ground,
which is located on the bluff, half a
mile south of town, OH the Greeley
road, at the point where said road
energies from the long and narrow
lane through which it passes after
leaving the railroad track. At this
point is deposited on either side and
in close proximity to the road, ma
nure, rubbish of every variety, dead
horses, cattle, hogs, dogs, cats and
other animals, forming a garbage
heap which not only sends forth a
sitting stencil, but is so repulsive in
appearance as to frighten horses and
SO often cause serious runaways that
people have almost entirely ceased
driving through there, preferring a
long detour in preference to risking
a runaway. 1t is utterly impossible
to drive a herd of cattle past this
sweet-scented mass of corruption /;
and owing to this, several stock men
who had much rather make their
shipments from here, will be COM
PEELED to go elsewhere, thus causing
our merchants to lose their trade
and that of their employees, which is
always a very snug item.
But a few rods distant from the
present dumping place is a deep
gulch, into which everything could
be thrown, and where it would be out
of sight from the road. Our mer-
chants are directly interested in this
matter, and we hope the Council or
the Marshal will take action imme-
diately toward changing the location
of the dump ground, and the burn
ing of the immense quantity of
trash which has already accumulated
there.
The road between the city and the
top of the bluff should also be put
in shape by bridging the creek and
removing the small house which stands
in the centre of the roadway in the
bottom, on the north bank of Grow
creek.
With these improvements, which
can be easily and cheaply made, the
road will be a good one, and no
travel be diverted from the city, as
is the Ease at present.

The chief pride of the ladies is the
possession of a dainty foot, and our

tally noted as having small and per-

fitting CATERS, shoes and slippers

styles. Mr.. Bon is always at home
and takes pleasure in exhibiting his
goods to all.

Organize.

The menacing attitude of our
neighbors, the Agency Indians, and
the many depredations committed
lately by these good Indians, who
have often penetrated to within forty
miles of this city, have brought about
a necessity for organizing against
these marauders, and our citizens have
decided to form several independ-
ent military companies in this county
for the protection of life and pro-
perty.
We have been requested to an
nounce hat a meeting of all those
who desire to join such an organiza-
ton in Cheyenne, will be held to-
morrow, Wednesday, evening, at 8
o'clock, at the City Hall. Only
