Pioche daily record. [volume] (Pioche, Nev.) 1872-1876, 1876-08-15

PIocHE ZEPHYRs. yesterday had a
regular old-fashioned zephyr. " The
wind charged through the streets with
almost irresistible force. Such clouds of
dust were swept through the streets that
very frequently pedestrians, what few
there was around, were forced to make a
stampede for the nearest doorways. Real
estate was lively, every one had a "spec"
III his eye. Only business of the utmost
importance could induce man to ex-
pose himself on the street when he had
place of refuge in any house of public
resort.

posed to resent intrusion. They prob.

peclally after dark. is requisite in all
those who feel inclined to stroll that
way.
