come out Of the strife like true warriors.
made noblsr and stronger BY their vic
tory. These men have to-day laid asids
their arms and are gamboling on the
grass Of Trsadway's ranch with little
ehildrs. and blooming maidsns. Ths
trials and the struggles Of the past are
for the moment forgotten. They arr
living ovs again the happy days oI

beauties Of nature. And II anybody
In Nevada has earned the right to thi'

lecture was on "Ths Liberty Of Man.

generally admired than any lecture wei
delivered in this section. Theodore
Tilton recently gave two lecture in Vir-
Rinia. The first lecture was quite well
attended. for the reason that almost
everybody desired TO see the man who
had figured 50 largely and at such n
grisvous disadvantage in the dissracsful
Dsechsr. Tilton affair; but his second
lecture was very poorly attended. as few
cared to hear him a second time.
The lac, VI IL is that Tilton said moth

consequently may 10 considered rot TO

sayings Of lnyeisoli. Tilton is an ed

SCHOOL REPORT.

Below VIZ append report Of the puOlic
,chools for the month ending November
10th. The attention oi parents Is called to
the alarming amount of tarlincsS that Is
stealing, viper-likc, the very liie.blood
from the success of the school.
The teachers flud upon inquiry. in nine
cases out Of ten, that tardv pupils were re
1nred to stay ont Of school, five, ten, or
thirty minutes, "to go down town, " to
90 upon the hill" or to do some other
chore that might have been done so many
m inutes sooner, had attention been paid
10 the matter promptly. IL is a mistaken
idea, that few minutes taken from a
chid's school hours in the morning or at
noon will be of very little moment. Con-
slider the influence; an imperfect lesson to
begin day with, the Encouragement to
child in not being abe to answer to his
name at roll call, the disturbance caused
Nv artly scholars, and no one can blame
the teacher for protesting.
1t is to be hoped that this evil may be
eradicated entirely from onr schools, but
all efforts of the teach er will prove un-
availing without an earnest cooperation
ot parents, with whom the question is,
WILL YOU. OR WILL YOU NOT ALLOW
YOUR CHILDREN ALL THE ADVANTAGES OF
TIE PUBLIC SCHOOL?
