The Silver City Reporter Of SUM-
day came out with q sensational ar
ticle severa. columns in length, with
staring caption headings, declaring
that something wrong had transpircd
in the Carson Mint. The truth of
the matter is this: Several months
ago some base bullion was sen. to
the Mint which the authorities could
not receive because its standard was
below that prescribed by law for Unit
ed States MINIS to treat; Frank Ken
Won hearing of this, wanted to secure
it for Mr.. Harris the Silver City as
saver, for separation. Mr., Kenyon
was actuated in this matter solely by
desire to keep an assay office fully
employed at Silver City. The bull
lion in question was more than nifty
per cent. base, which fact made 1t out
of the question for our Mint To han
die. So the bullion went to Silver
City and, owing to the absence OF MIR.
Harris, was taken thence to the Selhy
Reduction Works in San Francisco,
where it was refined We suppose. So
that is all there is of this long story
of The Reporter. The allegations
against our Mint Superintendent and
United States District Attorn " are
equally unfounded with the state
ment that Mint bullion had been
taken to Silver City. The Grand
Jury are at present considering this
matter, we believe. Mr.. Norton had
been invited some time since to come
here and state all he knew of this
transaction before the Grand Jury,
and. falling to do SO, he has been
summoned to appear when the Jurors
are again in session here. The Re-
porter made great effort to create
sensation. tfailei for want of facts
for foundation Carson Appeal.

The concert given by the German
Singing and Musical Societies at Turner
Hall last Saturday evening was not SO
numerousiy attended as The character
of the occasion and the talent of the par
Elephants therein would warrant-in fact
the empty seats indicated lack of ap-
probation on the part of our citizens Of
the beautiful in music. The entertain
ment was all that the most exacting
could demand In point of excellence of
selection and performance, and was
thoroughly enjoyed by those present.
Noticeable among the many good things
presented was the opening overture from
Mozart, executed with a praiseworthy
degree of excellence, "The Wanderers
Song, sung by Fred Heinemann, ''Thou
Everywhere" by Kate Voelchert, and
q clarionette solo executed by Mr.. Eb-
erie. As violinist, Hugo Wollmer won
the hearty applause of the audience by
his mastery rendition of ''Lombardi," a
selection at once very difficult and sur
passingly beautiful. Miss Hecker on the
piano and Prof. Bieling on the violin
played a selection from Beethoven which
was well resolved, while the choruses,
rendered by number of our best lady
and gentlmen singers, were elegant In
perfection. After the concert the hall
was cleared and dancing commenced,
which continued until an early hour the
following morning. The only cause for
regret lay in the fact that the attendance
was unwarrantably small-something
which, it is hoped, will never occur
again.

AT last Mr.. Tweed has arrived. The
old leader of Democracy is once more
upon his native heath. He didn't turn
pirate; he didn't capture the Franklin
and sail for furrin parts under the nom
de plume of sthe Red Rover; he
didn't do anything desperate at all
but simply returned quietly home after
an extended tour abroad, and has no
doubt taken up his quarters ere this at
his Ludlow street castle, where he will
be glad to see his friends. There is
rarely a great affection without its ale
Waiting circumstances, and the fact that
the old Boss ofTammany will once more
have an opportunity of meeting his fam
lily Though it is hoped not exactly with
the freedom that marked his visit on the
day of his escape) must compensate him
in large part for the despair and chagrin
of capture.

the hours OF two and three on Monday

being known that no water was accessi-
bic, the fire department did not turn out,
but by the efforts of the ncighbors the
contents of the house, with few e1cep-

the amount of $500. 1t is a severe b .ov
to our young friend, and one which vii

stLADY ERNEsTINE or, The Absent
Lord of Rochefort," is the name of new
book by Mrs. G. A. Warfeld, author of
s'The Household of Bouverie, just pub
ished by T. B. Peterson & Brothers,
Philadelphia, which DR.. r. Shelton
Mackenzie, the literary editor of the
Philadelphia Daily Press, who read the
work in manuscript, pronounces ''super-
ior, not only to The Household of Bou-
Verie, which established her fame as
novelist, but, as far as I can judge-and
I have been as determined a novel-read-
er all my life, as Lord Macaulay ever
was,-deserves to be regarded as one of
the very best works of fiction produced
during the last twenty years. Originality
of design, perfectness of execution, ac-
curate character drawing, clever con-
struction of plot, and good local color
ing, are its leading features. The for
tunes of the princely lire of D'Estree,
in the French province of Dauphine, are
related by the last direct representative
of that family,-the narrative, extending
from short period before the Revolu-
ton to the reign of Louis Philippe D.
Orleans, is entirely personal, which af
fords the opportunity of exhibiting the
writer's mental introspection, in the
manner Of Godwin's 'Cdle6 Williams
The story, which includes some affect
ing scenes in Paris during the Reign of
Terror, virtually closes with the fall of
Robespierre. Among the dranaatis per-
son9 of this weIl-told tale is Joseph
Balsamo, historically celebrated, under
the title of Count Cagliostro, who play
ed leading part in the affair of the Dia-
mond Necklace conspiracy, which SO
much injured the reputation of Queen
Marie Antoinette. He is introduced
here in a very skillful manner, without
any extravaganza of circumstance or de-
tails. Balsamo figures in Alexander
Dumas memoirs of q Physician but
no other novelist, until now, has brought
him into fiction. This which is adroitly
done, adds much to the interest of this
remarkable story" ''Lady Ernestine"
