were they to our notion we'll and neatly
kept before One forgets if there is good
while between baths what delightful tenn
perature that water has Judge McClinton
has expended much labor and time in curing
certain old defects and in making the neces-
sary repairs. A most excellent practice is
that of drawing off the water from the bath
rooms every night. This removes all impuri-
ties and keeps things sweet and clean. Our
popular ana pleasant friend Tom Condor
does the bar business. OF course this is per
formed with spirit and the soothing accesso-
ries known to the profession. Under these
able ministrations the house should prosper
and maintain the fulness of its good name.
$500 1t is fun to see big girl play ball. She
is conspicuously interesting at the bat. The
bat is generally great big board and she
holds it up with both hands; and when she
sees the ball a coming she just fires the bat
at it with all her might and then runs as if
she were afraid were going to toss her
over the FIRST fence When she is " in as
catcher she never catches the ball. When
it is tossed toward her she puts both hands
over her eyes, screams little scary scream
and catches the ball ON her stomach. Then
when she breaks for base she always goes
in the wrong direction and fetches up on the
opposite side to that to which she ought to
and is a good deal better than nobody to fill
up a short " nine. .. Uncle jerry Moore of
Elko came in yesterday. His nose has that
burnt and highly tanned appearance which
betokens a violent wrestling with the winds
and sunshine of the potato patch and the
stock range. Came in, We infer, to take a
hand along with the odd Fellows Also little

violent alarm, no immediate danger; but the |

merciful man is merciful to his beast A
German friend of ours, Joe" by name, who
formerly worked for Johnny Meder and is
journeyman butcher, he got back here yes
terday from the Black Hills, He has had all
he wants of that country. Says he was wet
as any drowned rat for two or three weeks at
a stretch, there. 1t rains all the time pretty
much. He brought with him some samples
of the gold dust they find there. 1t looks
black and if it were good deal mixed with
impurities of one sort and another Joe says
it fetches ST an ounce, in greenbacks. Pretty
poor gold, that. Charley Cavanaugh is at
Omaha, We understood him, waiting transpor-
tation home. Also, he has had all the Black
Hills i'll his II that he cares to have. Charleys
face is turned longingly to the land Of the
setting sun. We guess he represents a very r
large class of Californians and Nevadans who d
have have had their brief experience of the
new diggings. $3.50. We are glad to see that the }

himself in front of his bazaar yes
