A Nevada Hotels Guests.

The Virginia (Nev.) Enterprise re-
lates this of "Bob Howland's Hotel, "
at Meadow Lake: "Bob had 10 sooner
put up his sign than his old mining
and prospecting acquaintance hocked
to his standard. They could hardly
believe their eyes when they saw Bob's
name on the sign-it seemed almost too
good a thing. In they marched by
twos and fours, and, throwing their
blankets and other traps into corner,
advanced with Hello, Bob! you in
fernal old thief! If amt glad to see
you may be blowed!' They then pro-
ceeded to make themselves at home,
never missing meal and never paying
a cent The butcher finally shut down
on meat for Bob's boarding house, the
milkman shut down on the milk and
the baker on the bread. Bob explained
the matter to his dodgers, who to man
swore they would not t,desert him. They
would whip the butcher, the milkman,
the baker, or any other man Bob
wanted whipped, and if no more meat,
milk or bread could be had, they would
worry along on boiled cabbage and
potatoes, or any other cheap stuff that
could be had"

FOREIGN.

English View of the Eastern Situation.
London, Sept. 1.-The Turks are
concentrating all of their available re-
Inducements in Bulgaria. They have
gained more strength by the delay than
the Russians. Unless the Russians
hope to gain something by precipitat-
ing the Servian army on the communi-
cation Of Osman, their inactivity is un-
accountable, for they are not relatively
as strong now as after the battle of
Plevna. Their situation is a serious
one. They can extricate themselves
only by good luck or by winning one or
more battles of most tremendous mag
nitude. 1t is believed that not merely
the destiny of the Turks but that of
the Russians depends on the next great
battle. A decisive Russian defeat
might provoke a revolution in Russia
and undermine the throne of the en-
pire. The Russian failures have re-
duced her to third rate power in the
estimation of Europe.

Destruction of Ezki saghra.

London, Sept. IA correspondent
at Constantinople, describing the cap
ture of Ezki Saghra, says: As the Turk
ish troops approached the city, the Mos
lem inhabitants began to break in the
doors of all Bulgarian houses, and ten
minutes had hardly elapsed before five
hundred houses were pillaged.
There was q continuous and rapid
fire all over the city. The Turks say
the Bulgarians fired from the houses
and churches on the troops, but there
are no Bulgarians left to give their side
of the story. All of the Bulgarian men
seem to have been killed at sight, as if
by arrangement. The women and child
rem were spared, as general thing,
but the hideous pillage and firing, and
the shrieks and shouts continued all
night, and great districts of the city
were burning, as if all the other hor-
rors were not enough.
At daylight Suleiman Pasha ordered
all Moslems and Jews-who are protect
ed as if they were their own people-to
leave the place, since his contemplated
operations did not include any sucl
thing as the defense of Ezki Saghra
The Turks loaded up their effects ant
their women and children on wagons
and went to the nearest railway station
followed by what seemed an endles!

FOUND AT LAST.
Hon. 8. 8. Burdett, Lost Over
a Year Turns UP in
Missouri.
After Wandering in q Crazed Condition,
He Knows Not Where.
A Re-Union With His Family Relied
Upon to Restore His Reason.

Sedalia, No., Sept. 1.-The Demo-
crat of tomorrow morning will con-
tain the following:
The public will remember that in
May, 1876, Hon. s. s. Burdett, U. 8.
Commissioner of the General Land
Office, suddenly disappeared, and not
withstanding the most thorough search,
nothing of his whereabouts could be
learned. The last seen of him was in
the Astor House, New York, where he
had considerable money and jewels on
his person. Various rumors were
afoat concerning him. His books and
accounts were examined and found all
right. 1t was supposed that he had
committed suicide, and the body of u
man found near Bergen Point, N. j..
was supposed to be Burdett, but on
examination proved to be some one
else. His family have been unremit-
ting in their efforts to discover his
whereabouts, if living, or his fate, if
dead, but to no avail.
SoeSluay NCll ultSoSu,
guished looking man, with a wan and
careworn face, was observed pacing up
and down on Fourth street, acting
strangely, and watching the buildings
closely. Finally he entered the house
of lawyer E. S. Smith, and approach
ing Mrs. Smith, inquired:
"Do you know who I am f''
She replied: "No."
He then said: 81 am 8. s. Burdett,n
and so he proved to be.
He appeared to be deranged, and in
reply to question as to where he had
been, said he did not know. His intel
lect was evidently clouded, and his
mind wandered. He appeared indif-
ferent on the subject Of his family
when the name of his wife was men,
toned.
Mr.. Smith, at whose house he stopped,
was his former law partner. He left
last night for Appleton City, Mo-,
where he will be met by Burdett's fam
lily, who reside in Osceola. 1t appears
that his family has discovered his
whereabouts and sent him funds to re-
turn. 1t is thought the presence of his
family and proper treatment will restore
his reason.

SHARP PRACTICE.

BY the Chicago State Savings Bank.
Chicago, Sept. 1.-The deeper the in
vestigators go into the accounts of the
State Savings Institution the more
patent does it become that its officers
have Systematically plundered the fif-
teen thousand depositors and left them,
instead of three million Of dollars, less
than million, and that sum not readi-
ly convertible into cash. Neither
Spencer, Guild nor Bulkley have been
heard from, but rumor comes from
New York, apparently well authenti-
Gated, that Spencer sailed from New
York on the steamship Wisconsin, of
the Guion line, for Liverpool, on the
same Tuesday that the bank passed
into the hands of the assignee. Spen-
GERS transactions are worthy Of brief
record: He formerly held stock in the
Cook County National bank and was
connected with it before its failure; he
got out of that bank, borrowed money,
and gave in lieu thereof his note to the
bank, and with the proceeds bought
enough shares in the State Savings to
become the principal stockholder; he
then borrowed nearly half mil
lion dollars from the State
Savings bank to liquidate his matured
notes at the Cook County bank, and
gave his note to the State bank and
enough shares of stock to liquidate his
matured note to that institution, and
called himself square with the world
The books are full Of crooked trans
actions, and there is hardly day wher
the assistant cashier did not force 6
balance to indicate that the bank hat
more money than it really had; yet II
all dealings the forms of law seem tt
have been observed, and it is doubtful
if the offense is an extraditable crime
All of the other banks are doinI
about the usual amount of business to
day.

Further Particulars of the Destructive
Fire.
New Orleans, Sept. IA special
from Paris, Texas, says the fire broke
out in a saloon last night and spread
very rapidly, destroying the east, west
and south sides of the square, including
the postoffice, express office, telegraph
Office and many business houses and
private dwellings. About ten solid
blocks were destroyed. The water
gave out, which rendered the fire en-
gine useless. The loss is estimated
from one to one and half millions Of
dollars. Many families are without
shelter. Some lives are reported lost.
Only one body has been found as yet.
The fire was caused by an incendiary,
who is under arrest.

Is evaporated in vacuum until a large

yeast or other ferment. Thus will the

A Rich Strike at Rosi,a.

a Klch Strike AT Koslta.
Pueblo, Sept. 1.-The Virginia mine,
at Rosita, started up again yesterday
with double shift of miners. The
richest strike yet made in that district
was made in the Bassick mine on last
Thursday. Some of the ore taken out
assays over s15, 600 per ton. An assay
of an average 10000 pounds shows
S2,154 in silver and S1,S61 in gold.
The camp is wild with excitement.
The mine appears to be a rich deposit.
No wall rock has yet been discovered,
but the whole hill seems to be mass
of rich ore.

WAITS FROM WASHINGTON.
A Growing Public Sentiment in
Favor ofan Increase of
the Army.
The Presidents New England Visit
The Wood Paper Patent Extended.

Washington, Sept. Public senti-
ment in favor of more liberal provi-
sion for the regular army is being won
derfully quickened by the fact that
Sitting Bulls fighting force outnumbers
all that the government can put in the
field against him and Joseph, if the
expected junction of these savage chiefs
shall be effected. This spectacle and
the lesson of the strikers riots have
stimulated the propositions for an army
increase of fifty per cent. and the re-
posal in the President of discretionary
power to temporarily increase the force
when necessary.
The Presidents New England Visit.
Washington, Sept. President
Hayes visit to New England continues
to show its result in marked change
in Republican sentiment in his favor.
The conviction is becoming general
there that his southern policy presented
the only course open to him with any
prospect of success. The President is
credited with having promptly con-
verted some Democrats to his support
recently by saying of the Republicans
who disagree with him on civil service:
These people do not comprehend
that mean just what say. 1t is my
business to take care of the admins
tration of the government. The people
will take care of politics. If the civil
service is thoroughly purified in New
York there will be no trouble in the
rest of the country"
