of perpetual motion has been solved by him
He has, so he relates, constructed wooder
engine which has been running for three
months without cessation. Our reporter gave
evidence of his desire to view this wonderful
piece of mechanism, but Mr.. Schumacher will
not exhibit his great invention to the gaze OF
Carsonites, He designs taking his machine
to San Francisco, within few days, and there
permit it to be inspected and tested by Sc
lect coterie of savants and capitalists. As We
were not granted the privilege of seeing Mr.
Schumachers elephant, we cannot vouch for
the correctness of his statement This is an
age of incredulity. We want ocular proof of
everything.
A QUEER TEAM.-One of Carson's enter
prising youths yesterday afternoon hitched a
black pig and a half breed bull dog to a
small wagon. The boy seated himself in his
miniature vehicle and drove his mongrel
team up Carson street very peaceably for
while, when large Newfoundland dog
bounced the canine member of our young
friends team. True to his nature the bull
dog went for his antagonist. In the melee
the wagon was upset, the young driver safely
landed upon terra irma, and the pig giving
vent to the most unpiglike squeals tore down
the street with the little wagon dangling
after him, as if he were pursued by butcher
with murderous intent. The young driver,
not at all disheartened, asserts that he will
try his experiment over again he is deter
mined to create a bond of undying friendship
between piggy and purp.
