ON THE WRONG TACK.

THE editor of the Carson tribune, in
his comments upon our Seniors ar
ticle upon Colonel Stone, says: "We
were in the Democratic State Conven-
ton during its whole session and we
fail to recollect any act or saying of
Mr.. Stone that deserves so much abuse
from the SENTINEL editor" Mr..
Parkinson could not have read the ar
ticle in question very carefully or he
would have known that the p%rovoca-
ton given for Mr.. Cassidy's structures
upon Colonel Stone did not arise in the
State Convention, but in the Demo-
cratic convention of Storey county,
when the last named individual look
occasion to state, in evasion of a charge
made against him by Mr.. Riordan,
that Mr.. Cassidy was a Republican
and lad teen purchased by Mr..
Sharon in the last senatorial
contest in this State. The same
charge was covertlylcirculated among
the delegates of the Democratic State
Convention during Mr.. Cassidy's pre-
sumed candidacy for the nomination
for Congress, but it could be traced 10
no authentic source, and when Cas-
sidy, in his manly speech in the con
vention, denounced the charge as an
Infamous falsehood and branded its
authors as liars and s~coundrels, defy
ing them to make it to him personally,
and he would cram it down their
threats, Colonel Stone, who was
seated within twenty feet of the SPEAKER,
failed to come forward as a candidate
for the examining process, but followed
the advice given by Hank Monk to
Mr.. Greedy, by quietly keeping his
seat. Weeks afterwards, however.
when the gentleman he traduced was
hundreds of miles away, in an
assemblage composed of persons
a large proportion of whom
were strangers to Mr.. Cassidy, he
gave utterance TO words which he
evidently lacked the manliness to ut
ter in the presence of the gentleman at
whom they were directed, although
afforded ample opportunity so to do,
together with sufficient Provocation to
~substantiate them in the presence OF
the assembled representatives of the
Democracy of the State, if they were
rue.
Mr.. Cassidy is ab~undantly able to
fight his own battles. We did not in
tend TO allude tothis matter, and would
not have done so but for the error into
which the Tribune editor has evident
ly fallen concerning the ~provocation
for the article which he deems SO I'M
jus. and uncalied for. Our Senior is
away from home, and in his absence
we consider it our duty in justice to
him to give a statement of the fact /; af-
ter considering which, We opine our
friend, the Deacon, will modify his
opinion concerning the unjustness and
lack of provocation for the attack upon
"the nephew of his uncle"

WHAT a striking contrast, says the
Burlington Howkeye, there was be
tween the Iowa Democratic State Con.
vention and the State Convention oil
the Republicans. In the latter there
was one solitary German delegate; in
the former they were numerous, and
among them the foremost Germans OF
the State.

The Consolidated Virginia Mining
Company persists in its refusal to
pay the bullion tax, being delinquent
1922, 900 on account of the last quarter.
The County Commissioners of Storey
county have engaged Lewis & Deal to
commence suit against the company at
once, and to carry the cas- to the
United States Supreme Court as soon
as possible. The company has been
beaten at every turn in its efforts to
avoid M of the most just and equit
able taxes ever levied in any State or
country; and yet. though the bonanza
kings have been enriched and are daily
growing richer from the product of the
mines of Nevada, they grudge a small
share of their gains required of them
to support the State and governments
which protect their property and seek
to throw all the burden of taxation on
others far less able to stand it than
themselves. Picayunish is the best
word we can fiod to describe their
course and policy; and we do not think
they will be any the gamer by their
hoggishness.

Tweed's Partner Arrested In Chi.
cagO.

CHICAGO, Oct. 4.
+. Woodward, late partner of VIM.
NJ. Tweed, for whom d large reward is
offered, was arrested here this after
noon, at the Palmer House, where he
wa registered as A. Wallace, Liver
pool. He was disguised, bat was rec
ognized by a New York gentleman
and pointed out to the police and
locked up at Central Station, where he
will be retained until further steps are
taken by the New York authorities.
He was very uncommunicative to re-
porters, but said to Police Superin-
tendent Hickey that he had just ar
rived from England, by way of Sa-
vannah, and that he had not seen
Tweed for six years. A man regis
tered as j. II. Blanodt was with him at
the time of his arrest, and remains
with him at the station by permission.
Further Particulars of the Arrest
of WOODY ard weea's Partner.
New YORK, Oct. 5.
A Times Chicago special gives addi-
,ional details of the arrest OF Wood
ward. The prisoner makes no attempt
to DENY his identity. He denied that
he had been with Tweed since that
worthy's escape, but acknowledged
that he had spent much of his time
abroad in Cuba. When Weston, the
New Yorker, who discovered him
through his disguise, pointed Wood
ward out TO the police, Woodward ex-
claimed, "My God, Charlie, you are
not going to give me away?" He
pleaded old friendship, but Weston re-
FLIED that he could not stand upon
that now, as he (Woodward) had been

| guilty of crimes and he must now de-
liver him up to the law. Woodward
finally ceased his petitions to be re-
leased and went with the officer who
| made the arrest to Central Station.
where he was placed in a well-guarded
room, but was moi confined in a cell.
Woodward was in his young days a
schoolmate of Weston. After reaching
the station and having turned his man
over to the officials. Weston asked if
he might take Woodward to a hotel 10
stay over night, saving he would be
personally responsible tor his safe re
turn TO the station in the morning, but
this the superintendent refused to
grant. He desired to run 10 risk in
allowing The prisoner to be at large.
Woodward also asked 20 be sent to
New York at once, in charge of a dep
utv, but this was not entertained for a
moment. When arrested Woodward
insisted that he was III his way to New
York, and said that lie had but just
arrived in America. He would not di-
vulge at what point he landed. The
most intimate friends of Woodward
would hardly recognize him i'll the dis
guise in which he expected to avoid
detection. He is entirely different
from the jolly-facei individual who
used tn be so we'll known in NewYork
political circles. He is puffy and his
face fiorid, and he appears to be abont
forty years old, and though not
troubled with short-sightedness he
wears glasses. His face is marked
with a few deep lines. He has a gen
eral air of one who has knocked about
the world a good deal and led a fast
life and seen troubles.

How Belle Lost Her Wig Overheard.

Mr.. Trowbridgc's comical story in
poetic verse, in the July number of Har-
per's Magasine, of fashionable belle who
lost her wig and false teeth overheard,
which were recovered in time to allow her
wedding to one of her suitOrs, had coun-
terpart in half of the story last week in the
experience Of party who attended the
yacht race on steamboat. The sufferer
is Unknown society belle, who has
more than once graced the upper deck of
Col. Delaney Kane's Pelham coach, and
is understood to be engaged to Wall
street broker. She is only nineteen, and
has been noted for her wealth of blonde
hair. Dressing in half-mourning on &C
count of the death of relative, the CON-
bination of black with blonde has given
her distingue appearance, we'll known
to the swells of the avenue. Last week
on the occasion of yacht race she was
one of a private party on board small
propeller chartered for the occasion, and,
as the wind was gusty, and the sea made
sad work with the stomachs of the party
outside of Sandy Hook, there was an ut
ter abandonment of all pretense of person.
al appearance. Our belle suffered with
the rest, when she sought relief by remov-
ing her hat. A sudden puff of wind the
next moment caught her hair and stripped
her head of its covering. In other words,
her mass Of blonde head-rigging was
blown overheard, and the poor girl was in
rage of despair. Her lady friends
rushed her into the cabin and tried to con-
sole her; but half of them were delighted
with her mishap, and the other half said
to themselves that it served her right.
However, they managed to arrange her
remaining hair so that it looked passably
well, and she returned to the city, if not
crestfallen, at least bereft of her wealth
of hair, and her reputation as q blonde
beauty forever destroyed.-N. 7. Cor.

A Moslem Burying-Gr0und.

As WE travel on, by and by the railroad
skirts Moslem burying- ground, and such
you should see would you have an inn
preston of barrenness beside which the
desert looks fertile, an image of absolute
death, with no suggestion of further life
of spirit or matter, hopeless as eternity is
long, and petrifying your spirit as you
gaze. There is not one blade of grass,
nor a flower, tree or shrub; no wreath, no
ornament, symbol of remembrance and
affection Of surviving friend no beautiful
design in marble; no gracefully outlined
stone to mask the ugly skeleton of death !;
no reverence or loving inscription. All
that you see is wide field baked under
the burning sun, with no color Of earth or
stone but the dead gray of ashes. The
tombs, which are q low pile of stone and
mortar, from either end of which arises a
low, rough hewn, upright stone, look as
if the great army and innumerable pro-
cession'' of the dead had indeed here
pitched their everlasting tents in an eter-
nal desert, and Death has built himself q
fitting throne upon this ashy, livid, color
less plain. In the near distance we dis
Germ the minaret of q neighboring mosque !;
and, beyond solitary palm tree, lifts its
broad leaves high toward heaven as If its
lonely color were seeking sympa-
thy with the blue above. AlerandrsG Cor.
