How q Weary Way farer AstOnished
a Nevada Woman

Virginia City Chronicle, May 10.
A lady residing in the vicinity Of the
Lady Bryan nine, in Six Mile canon,
while attending TO her household duties
last Thursday morning, was addressed
by a seedv-looking man, who asked Tor
drink of water. He was evidently Il
tramp; vet there was an air about him
that bespoke gentle breeding. He drank
the cup Of water handed him, and, look
ing into the house, saw al opened pisno,
Appolcg zing for the liberty, he asked
permission to play on the instrument.
Ills request was granted by the some
what s5tonished lady. Seating himself
\. the piano, and removing the music
book from the rack, he opened with the
overture Of "Tancredi," which he follow
ed with half dozen gems from grand
operas. Without even pause he
changed of into sparkling airs from the
Grand Duchess "GirohA Girofa, and
other comic operas, finally winding up
with the sllegretto of Beethovsn's sym
phony in A. He Played for nearly an
hour, yet during that time, the lady OF
the house, once music teacher in this
city, sat amazed and, as she SAWS, zen
trsnced." She endesvored to lead HIM
into a conversation over his past history
and asked him why he did not practice
profession for which he was so eminently
lit, but he refused to speak, and in reply
to inquiries merely said that he was poor
and in search Of work. After psrtaking
of good meal, in payment for which he
split a few logs OF wood in the yard,
be continued on his way down the canon.

tilted that Gilbert admitted that an old
gentleman whom he supposed was COT

bresktasted; said he had applied At a
house near Gilbert's for lodging, but was
refused, and that he slept all night IN a
hog pen near Gilberts.
After getting breakfast inberger
said that as he (Gilbert) had been good
to him he would pay him well tor bis
kindness, and thereupon handed him q
twenty dollar greenback note and started
on to his brothers.

fed that the prisoner had made state

prominence twenty-five years ago 1889 in
New Orleans, when it and other cities of the
south were so cruelty afflicted with the fever
and such horror and panic were excited that
husbands deserted their wives, parents their
children, and the ties of common humanity
seemed shattered. Napoleon B. Kneass, now
of Philadelphia, but formerly merchant of
New Orleans, says that the organization
originated in his store, among his clerks,
especially two of them, whose mother was
from San Domingo, and had seen much
the epidemic. They went about the city
hunted up new cases, and furnished the suf-
ferers with medicines prepared by her and
found effective in Hayti. From the clerks as
a nucleus the association was formed. Young
men of wealth joined it, and adopted the
name of Howard from the renowned English
philanthropist. They obtained medicines,
nurses and physicians, and established agen-
cies in all the towns and cities that had been
or were likely to be infected, binding them
selves to act together at every temperance
in numbers and means, and before the civil
war it was one of the richest benevolent soci-
cites in the country. That bitter contest left
most of its members poor, and the association
has been crippled in its power to do good
Until recently they never asked for aid, but
any contributions to the cause were received,
and distributed according to existing need.
They divide the town or city into districts, to
each of which membere are assigned, and,
when the disease reveals itself, each case is
Immediately reported to headquarters. The
visiting committee at once investigate the
matter, physicians and nurses are employed.
and everything is done that can be done to
relieve the patient
