WITHDRAWAL OF DAGGETT.

1t is reported as thing that is not only
understood but definitely agreed upon, that
Mr.. r. M. Daggett will publish card in the
Enterprise of this morning withdrawing from
the contest for the Gubernatorial nomination.
This adds another to the list of establishments
and sensations of the canvass. OF course,
this gives Mr.. Batterman the thirty-seven
votes of Storey County in the State Conven-
ton, solid. We say "of course, because the
compact entered by Batterman, Daggett and
Tyrren implies, if it does not explicitly specify,
that the man whose name receives the great
est number of votes i'll the primary election
shall not DO subjected to any competition by
the other two. The arrangement entered into
means this if it means anything. Mr.. Dag
gett simply surrenders before, instead of after,
= fight at the primaries 1t is little strange
that he should thus draw out of an election
whose terms, extraordinary and unusual as
they are, are his own suggestion. Mr.. Dag
gett does not desert the Daggett plan, exactly;
he simply lays down his hand Just why
he has quit the fight We can not quite under

with a very decided apparent advantage.
Tyrrell may have had more money
to spend than he, but himself had and
used as all auxiliary, the most powerful
newspaper in the State. Batterman, we take
it, is quite as badly off for money to spend in
campaigning as Daggett. SO it looked, at this
distance, like pretty equally sided triangular
duel Batterman's generalship is certainly
very successful, so far and unless there shall
happen some unlocked for events and compii-
cations, he will 60 into the State Convention
with the strength of candidate who is the
sole and emphatic choice of county with
thirty seven votes out of total of one hun
bred and thirty enormous advantage.
We have said this much upon this subject
upon the understanding that Mr.. Tyrrell has
abandoned the canvass and, as we say in the
outset, upon the sem-authoritative announce
ment that Mr.. Daggett has concluded to pub
lish a card of withdrawal this morning. We
must confess that this Storey County business
hssiness has presented more odd and curious
phases than we ever encountered in political
campaign before.

BOUNCED. yesterday afternoon drunken
man named Kelly entered the Ormsby House
bar and, in the course of very short period
of time, rendered himself so obnoxious TO the
bar-keeper and bystanders that the former
was compelled to take him by the neck and
throw him out upon the sidewalk, a feat which
was performed in a most excellent manner.
The drunken fellow then picked himself up
and remained in that locality for quite while,
using the most foul and vulgar language ever
heard, to the great disgust of all passersby.
Unfortunately there was no officer around to
lock him up.

FoR THE YELLOW FEVER SUFFERERs.-Mr.
John T. Pantlind, Secretary of the N. A. M.

from Marcus D. Boruck, President of the
California Agricultural Society, in which the
latter states that at the coming California
State Fair boxes will be put up at the park
and in the pavilion to receive contributions

of next month. We agree with Mr.. Boruck.
His suggestion is sensible one, and we have
no reason to doubt that the trustees of the

1t being fact that the amount due to the
assignees is very much in excess of the sum
thus secured to them, it is easy to be seen
that the chance for the general creditors to
realize anything out of the ruins of this I'M
lucky house is not at all a brilliant one In
other words, the failure, except in respect of
the property taken possession of by these as
signees, is total and apparently hopeless.

THE MCCONNELL ASSIGNMENT.

Ever since the failure of the stock broker
been many rumors afioat regarding the condl-
tons under which the assets of the suspended
concern have come into the hands of certain
parties whose names have been more or less
publicly mentioned. From Mr.. W. D. Toby,
one of the four assignees thus referred to, we
learn the following facts Himself and asso-
ciate assignees, namely, P. F. Powers, ". G.
Clark and Geo Wornering, came in posses
sion of the remaining assets, and now hold
them, not in the light of agents through
whose hands the affairs of the concern are to
be settled for the benefit of the general body
of creditors, but as four of the persons to
whom Mcconnell & Co. are indebted, and
who, being jointly interested in the said as
sets, will share pro rata, in the proceeds arts
ing therefrom. IT, after their claims are sat
isfed, anything remains, such residue will go
to the other creditors. This assignment made
on Thursday last was made for the reason
that the failure of the concern had been dis
covered in advance of its publicity by these
gentlemen and they took steps to secure them
selves. The available assets of the concern,
in refund numbers, as far as ascertained,
amount to about Sc, 600 in value. This sum
is made up of the following items:

A Glrl's Composition on Boys.

Boys is strange things. Boys is of
three kinds. The baby boy, the little
boy. and. the big boy. l don't like the
baby boy cause he squalls and kicks,
and have to rock him with cradle.
But, if the big boy or rne little boy
squalls and kicks, can rock him with
stones. like the little boy best when
he's got candy and gives me some. But
like big boys best when it SHOWS cause
he can haul me on his sled. A boy is a
little man if he behaves himself. and if
he don't he's little devil; that's what
mother said brother Bob was the other
day when he told old Miss Smith that
mother said she was an old bore. NY
papa said he was little boy once, but
mother said she wasn't, and she wishes
papa was little boy once more. Sister
Julia says she don't like boys, and when
saw her and Tom Brown sitting in the
rocking chair Sunday night, she said
she was trying TO squeeze the life out OF
him, cause she didn't like him; but
don't think she was hurting any place,
for he wouldn't let her get up. This Is
all know about boys, and mother says
she hopes I won't never know any more
bout 'em.
