THE FOURrN.

We surrender to-day nearly the
whole Of our available space to mat
tors connected with the observance Of
the Nations Centennial Anniversary.
The wires were badly demoralized
yesterday to the eastward, yet we have
s~uNhcient intelligence from that direc-
ton to give us to understand that the
day was observed by u Eastern
brett rem with . patriotic heartine~s
never before witnessed in this country.
The day seems to have been remarks
bly, free Of accidents, the only serious
misfortcne Of this character occurring
in the capital Of our own State. AT
Carson one man was killed outright
and three others seriously injured by
the explosion of a cannon. The burn
Ing of a stable in Austin ard the de-
struction of . small house in San Fran
cisco are the only fires reported. A
full account of the days proceedings
in Eureka, including the poem and
oration, will be found In our local
columns.
NEVADA AT THE CENTENNIAL
Major Ford, Of the Ophir mine, who
has Just returned from the Centennial,
informs the Virginia Chronicle that
Nevada's representation at the exhi-
bition 10 simply contemplate. After
spending q whole day in the search he
stumbled across the Nevada quartz
mill, In Q miserable little shanty out
side the main. machinery building.
The mill was not running, nor was
there any one about 1t III authority.
Two MGR were 'laying Off" but they
indicated an intention I start the ma
chinery at 4 o'clock, and with this the
few visitors present who. like Major
Ford. had stumbled upon the mill,
were forced to be content. The men in
charge could not explain the workings
of the mill, nor did they know of any
one who could. We feared all along
that that one-horse coffee mill would
bring us into disgrace. Stevenson
should not be allowed to escape; AMI
indignant Nsvadans at Philadelphia
have our full permission to put him
through the battery of that miserable
little rattle-trap. Turn on the steam,
good engineer.

CASTORIA.

DR.. Samuel Pitcher, Of Hysnnis, Mass expert
mented in his private practice for twenty years to
produce combination that would have the prop
critics of Castor Oil without Its unpleasant taste
and gripping effect
His preparation was sent for, near and far, till
finally he gave 1t the name of Castoria, and put it
up for sale. 1t is very wonderful in its effects
particularly with the disordered stomachs and
bowels of children. 1t assimilates the food
cures sour stomach and wind collie, regulates the
bowels, expels worms, and may be relied upon in
Group.
As a pleasant, effective and perfectly safe Ca
thartic remedy 1t is superior to Castor OIL, Cord
ias aud syrups. 1t does not contain alchohol,
and is adapted to any ege.
By regulating the stomach and bowels Of cross
and sickly children they become good natured
and healthy. They can enjoy sleep, and moth' rs
have rest. The Castoria IA put up at the Labora-
tory Of J. B. Rose Co.. 70 Dey Street, New York

The Christian Cause in Turkey.

If any plan presents itself whereby
the fall of Turkey would not lead to the
immediate aggrandizement of Russia,
then the sooner Turkey falls the better.
Preferable to any plan is some natural
movement in which the young and Wig
orous disposes of what is rotten, and
such movements we are witnessing IN
the uprising of the Christian races of.
European Turkey. They are the ancient
owners OF the SOIL Their ancestors
lived there thousand years before the
Turks crossed the Bosphorus. The right
of the Turks to possession is one which
is only respectable so long as, it can be
made good. It is a right which was ere
ated by the sword, and which has never
been consecrated by anything. better.
We have all been conquered at one time
or another, but. whereas in other .coun7
tries the conquerors havebecone merged
in the mass Of the conquered, and the,
systems they established have been
modified to suit the. Requirements. Of
after ages, in European Turkey the con-
querors have always stood apart as a
ruling. caste, keeping sole possession of
the sword, and denying to the mass OF
the people every right except that that OF {
being nisgoYerned. Such an attitude
is Standing challenge to the oppressed
races to reassert their moral rights, and
recover political possession of the land
which has always been theirs. The evils
caused by the struggle may be great, but
they are not greater than the evils which
have all along been silently endured,
while they contain the promise OF eman-
cipation and the manifold blessings
which follow in the wake of freedom
