they will make some money. Johnny
thinks that Grant Blake will succeed in

A ZEpHYR--Pioche yesterday had an
other specimen of a windy and dusty
day; sprinkling was of no use as dust,
pebbles and all loose articles were flying
around promiscuously. A portion of the
awning in front of Sam. Danner's saloon
broke down, the Chapman House was
damaged to the extent OF the cornice and
couple of window shutters. Numerous
signs were blown down, an empty cabin
in the lower portion of town was tumbled
over. Nesbitt 4 Bro. 8 stable on Main
street. and some of the sheds in the rear
OF Johnston's stable were also blown
, down. The bowling alley on Meadow
Valley street was in very shaky con-
dition. The extent OF the damage done
however has not amounted to much
The wind storm will probably end in
3 rain or snow. Articles of all kind
, travelled down Main street under the in
fuence of the wind, with the exception
OF red-hot stoves.
