MEN AND WoMEN.--What is it
that makes all those men who $50
ciate haLitually With woman superior
to those who do not? What makes
that woman who Is accustomed to
stand at ease in society OF men supe-
rior to her sex in general? Surely
because they are III the habit of free,
graceful, cohtinted conversation
with the other sex. Women in this
way lose their frivolity, their facul-
ties awaken, and their delicacies and
peculiarities unfold all their beauty
and captivation in the spirit of intel
lectual rivalry; and the men lose
their pedantic, rude, declamatory,
and suilen manner. The coin Of the
understanding aud the heart changes
continually. The asperities are
rubbed off, the better materials are
polished and Frightened, and their
richness, like that of gold, is wrought
into finer workmanship by the fin
gers of women than it ever could be
by those of men.

OUGHT To DIE.-An advocate OF
temperance, Of complete, absolute
abstinence was the other day hold
ing forth to a small but select crowd
of seedy looking vermillion nosed
temperance men. One forcible illus
tration which he drew to show the
evil effects of imbibing too large a
quantity of alcoholic liquors was,
that he knew man "who feeling
very warm and thirsty, drank large
tumbler of whisky, which threw
hun in commissions. His agony was
fearful; great beads of perspiration
stood on his brow, the deadly liquor
was surely and speedily doing its
work; his stomach was being CON
sumed-burned up, the whisky was
seething in him like so much fire,
and within half an hour after taking
that fatal draught he was dead.
This my fellow" Here he was
interrupted by an old bum who
spoke up: "Look'ere, why in the
deuce didn't he take u toddy, any
fellow who hasn't any more sense
than to drink Silver City whisky
without water ought to de-" This
logic dispersed the crowd, and yet
the whisky ring is prosecuted.

ANOTHER AccrDENT.-We we're /
formed Yesterday evening of an ac-
c'dent which happened at the Gale
uonia mine between 2 and 8 p. NJ.
mat almost forces one to believe
mere is nothing safe about a mine.
i. appears a pumpman named Charles
west got into an empty car, which
was supposed to be fastened on the
cage, and started up from the 600
loot level. On the cage arriving at
the surface it was noticed that the
car had been misplaced in some way.
and that the flanges were broken
from two Of the wheels. Mistrusting
that something was wrong, the shaft
was examined, and West was found
In an unconscious condition in u
pump station on the SO0-foot leve.
His left thigh was broken, besides
sustaining other injuries of IA severe
nature. No one, even West, appears
to know how the accident occurred,
as the Car was securely hitched to the
cage.

DAYTON NlMRODS.
Guns VS.. Traps.

A short time ago two of Dayton's
prominent citizens-whose names
we have not been able to learn, but
for short will designate as G. G. and
A. D.-hearing that immense coveys
of quail were bothering the settlers
of Walker River by loafing around
their back yards, whipping the
chickens and eating up their feed,
they resolved to go there for few
days and extermin these eatablc
pests-to fetch home fifteen or TWEEN
ty dozen to divide among their
friends. But we will let our inform
ant tell the story. He says: "ln a
few days they returned, wet, cold and
hungry, with "nine" quail, nine
small quail, but said they had given
about five dozen away, being too
bothersome to carry. This seemed
rather singular to those who had been
promised quail dinners. Some of
them were asserting that the traas-
parency of the story was only equaled
by a wire screen; still the matter was
not agitated until man came in
from Mason Valley and let the cat
out of the bag by stating that there
were two places in the valley where a
large number of quail were caught,
as much as two and three dozen ut a
time; and the brave Nimrods not
being able to kill them sitting, run
ming or on the wing, had made raid
on the traps, but unfortunately they
found but few there that day." 1t is
still vexed question as to which is
the most fatal, guns or traps; and
vet we talk of whipping Spain, in
which case it would probably be ad-
visable to arm tho Dayton militia
with clubs.

CENTENNIAL BUGBEAR.--We are
surrounded on every side by evi.
dences that this Is the Centennial
year, and before 1t is over we shall
all learn how noble thing it is to
suffer and be strong. We put on our
Centennial boots and wear our Cen
tennial necktie, eat from Centennial
dishes and read the Centennial Guide.
We drink Centennial cocktails and
smoke Centennial cigars lighted with
Centennial matches. We look at
our Centennial calendar tor the day
of the month, and find out when the
sun rises by consulting our Centen
NAL almanac. We receive Centen-
NAL communications written on
Centennial note paper, with Centen-
NAL pens dipped in Centennial ink.
We attend Centennial balls, buy
Centennial relics and admire ladies
dressed in Centennial robes. How
long human nature can stand up
under this Centennial load is doubt
full, but we are quite sure it will not
resist the wear and tear of another
Centennial.

AGAIN So.-Once more the heavy
quartz wagons, with their long teams
of from six to fifteen animals, are
seen going through our streets laden
with unreyenerated wealth. Wood
teams from Dayton, Empire and other
points along the river have also made
their appearance after being driven
of by the late storms. Consequently,
these two facts existing, the mills are
performing their duty, and the great
stream of silver rolls out and on.

WEATHER. The weather in this
section is lovely. Yesterday the
sun rose clear and warm, in fact
during the day it seemed almost too
warm when exposed to its rays. The
thermometer stood at 80 in par
TALLY exposed place. The effect is
quite perceptible on the streets, the
mud having almost entirely dried,
some little dust actually being seen
in the northern part of town. So
far as weather and mud is concerned
we are far ahead of our neighbors
up the gnlch. They still have
banks of snow and streams of mud.
while we almost enjoy the beautie s
of summer, without the inconven-
fences of winter.

Mail Steamship Company, y brother

The TRADE DoLLAR.EWe heard a
fellow the other day expiating upon
the evil Of not only the trade dollar,
but the harm resulting from the sur
plus of silver. He was about three
sheets in the wind and the anchor
almost dropped in the alcoholic sea
Of intoxication, and this was the
way he reasoned: "You fellows don't
comprehend the trouble and evil
which Is bound to follow this miser-
able surplus of silver-talk about
the silver problem, 1t is beyond the
comprehension of an ordinary labor
ing man, and as for the trade dollar,
1t Ii the cussedest arrangement ever
legalized by the Government; no.
body ever has change. But its all

New FAsHIoN.-We have heard
a good deal about fashions in regard
to neckties. But one OF our promi-
nent merchants was the other day
presented with one OF an unusual
pattern, one never before seen in
this community, it was called a
"fish" tie. and tied with a trout
knot. An esteemed lady friend pre-
sented it, with such sweet honied
words that he could not held accept
ing the gift, although his face was
suffused with bushes. His partner
thinks it was Q scaly affair!

RAToLoGY.-The proprietor O
the Silver City boot and shoe store
on Main street, had quite an adven-
ture the other evening. He was
awakened during the night by the
consciousness of great pain, and to
his surprise found he was attacked
by rats. One had hold of his ear,
another his upper lip, while the
third had him by the nose, and
there were several others scamper-
ing around ready to sail in at a
favorable moment. He waxed
wroth of course, and commenced to
make it as lively as possible for
them, and with the assistance of a
neighbours cat, who was attracted
by the rats squealing, they were
soon disposed of. All were gone,
the last had vanished.

OUR PROSPECTS.

The future of Silver City is fully
assured. In the past she was one
of the liveliest mining towns in this
State, but tho proverbial hard times
came, her mines were deserted for
more encouraging prospects bust
ness was at stand still, their
death-knell seemed whispered in
every gust Of wind. Yet there were
some brave hearts who thought an
other day of prosperity would
dawn; they knew our resources
were undeveloped; their judgment
told them that "surface gouging"
would never develop mine, and
good mines rarely revealed their
true worth and richness without
more extensive and deeper explora-
tons than they had received. With
this belief they worked on, day by
day, month by. month, until the
dawning Of our present prosperity
lightened their labors. Some of
these men have gone to sleep while
yet the fruition of their hopes were
but dawning, but others have filled
up the thinned ranks and marching
on in the battle of labor which
promised victory of wealth. Old
mines have been reopened, and
deeper explorations have proven
that their real wealth lies deep,
deep within arms of adamant, who SO
clasp can only be broken by energy.
labor and capital. These we have.
Each day our prospects are better,
and every level opened, every hun
dred feet added to the shafts are
stronger evidence Of the perma-
nency and wealth Of the district.
Within the boundaries of this town
there are five quartz mills, which,
except during the severest
portion OF the winter are constantly
crushing away, while in the Devil s
Gate District, Is mines are in active
operation, each affording constant
remunerstive employment to many
men. This has helped the business
in town, IN fact, it has constantly ill.,
creased tor several years past, sup
porting two large stores besides
several of u variety character. Three
fine hotels and several boarding
houses, two livery stables, two meat
markets, an assay Office, brewery,
a newspaper with the promise of All
other, and innumerable saloons.
The business of the Post Office has
more than doubled during the last
year, increasing from fourth to third
in rank, the same has been the case
in the letter and package depart
ment of Wells, Fargo Il Co. With
our present prosperity we can safely
assert there has never been time in
the history of this town, when it was
AS substantial as now, the future as
bright or so near the realization of
labor's dream-wealth.

THAT OLD, OLD SToRY.-One OF

Of man, who affected an entire DIS
regard for cleanliness and whole
clothes, and appeared as though his
existence in this world depended
more upon drinking than eating. His
"facial area" was very extensive
however, and he was determined to
