"UNo, ""BLANoaE" AND BISMARCK"
of course you do = three sagacious
"purps," the first two belonging to
Charley Wiederhold and the last named
to Hermann Horst, have acquired the
habit Of going out hunting on their own
account; but what they catch no one
knows, for they never bring any game
back with them. "Uno," daily puts up
the "job" on the other confding and
unsuspecting CANNES, and invsigles them
into going out "just once more" though
he not infrequently finds them disin-
clined to follow his lead, when he pro.
ceeds to pull the wool over their eyes
after the most approved fashion. 1t is
amusing to watch the way hs does it.
A consultation il first held, and ''the old
boy" shows up the fun in prospect in its
best light. Then as if to try the effect
of his sophistry he will start off on q run
in manner calculated to convey the
impression that there is royal fun ahead,
turn and take in at glance the effect
upon his dupes-if favorable, it is only
necessary to proceed, if not little more
soft soder is used, whom he would return
and argue the point. There ia no let up
until all is serene, when he leads of in
fine style, turning now and then to see
that there is no trechery, until finally
the trio are we'll out of town, when Uno
relaxes his vigilance and turns his at.
tention to the business in hand. Their
hunting ground is out on the Highland
road where, for three or four hours each
day, when weather will permit, they engage
in the chase until completely worn out.
On their return they never fail to stop
in at the RECoRD Office and say I'VE are
powerful dry" in such manner that
there ia no installing what is wanted.
After throwing themselves on the out
side'' of gallon or two OF water they
proceed on their way home, more than
satisfied with the days sport; but are
ready on the morrow, if the weather is
not rough, to sally forth again and give
the rabbits "a game" This is the first
instance coming to our knowledge where
dogs make practice of hunting alone.
The BLACK HILLs.-We notice in the
Eureka Sentinel and other papers pub
lished in the Central and Eastern portion
OF the State, that quite number of Ne
vadans propose to try their luck in the
Black Hills. The papers published in
Wyoming, Nebraska and Iowa, give very
glowing accounts Of the rich diggings,
which they assert are so plentiful in the
new Ell Dorado. These accounts should
be taken with many, very many grains
of allowance. They mostly come from in.
terested parties, who will draw direct
and present profit from all persons who
are attracted to the new mines. There.

the Indian title to the lands in question

that the working season is short ant
