later in the season. We understand that some

| capital is already negotiating for more hoist
| ing works railroad from Carson into Esmer-
aida county is mere question of time; and
we feel very much encouraged to believe that
it will be one of the enterprises of the COM
ing year The human nature that is III,
and which 0ozes out of, boys, will be, no
doubt, fruitful theme for the future his
torian. No writer of the present age can do
the subject Justice One is too near the
events and participants, as it were. Just now
the boys being on the outer edge of a too
prOtracted season of top time have invented
a machine in whose presence the thing called
"a locust sinks into contemplate and noise
less insignifcance THE locust was made
piece of rubber drawn across it, drum head
fashion, and a horse hair run through the
rubber. Some Jerking and swinging of this
disreputable machine made a noise not unlike
the croaking of bereaved and broken-hearted
frog The thing last contrived by the boys
is made of a tin can about as big as a yeast
powder box, and we suspect it to be an aggra-
waited and monstrosefed edition of ''the
locust tho we have not ventured near
enough to one of them to become acquainted
with its structure. This invention, manipu-
lated by hands that are skilled hands in the
science of acoustical cussedness makes a noise
which is a combination of the yelp of be-
nighted dog and the heartrending groans of
an INCREASED and ungreasable wagon wheel |
1t is the last and worst of juvenile depravities.

serve its solennities. We look for general
suspension in business in Carson during at
least the programmed portion of the days sad
exercises. 1t is an occasion when the acri-
monies of politics can be put aside, and all
who claim true citizenship can turn the purer
thoughts and actions toward the observance
of a nations day of sorrowing. Memorial
Day since its addition to the calendar of Am
erican holidays has always been observed in
Carson, but never, we can assure our readers,
has it been commemorated here as it will be
to-day Excellent taste and judgement have
been shown in the preparation for the days
services. All the available music in Carson,
vocal as well as instrumental, has been Sc
cured and the literary exercises, consisting
of an Grafton by Comrade H. F. Bartine and
an original poem by Comrade S. P. Kelly, will
be worthy the patriotic cause that calls them
forth.

PRACTICAL EDUCATION.

The New York Tribune is warmly In
favor of the practical education of young
ladies in cooking. dressmaking and milli-
merry. 4 good deal. it says. is bitterly
spoken of women of fashion,, enamored of
expense. indolent, frivolous and selfish.
Poems are written about them of the sat.
rcal sort, and they are ignominiously
classed as Flora McFlimseys. There is
not a word to be said in their defence, ex-
cept that they are what fond mothers and
foolish fathers have made them. But
there are other women who mean well
and who would like to do well, If they on
ly knew how-poOr. jaded creatures, who
are willing to work, but who, through ig-
norance, work constantly at q disadvan-
tage who would be economical and so
help their husbands. if they had been ear
ly taught the elements of economy; and
drag through lite, God knows, without
| mach pleasure. and die at last leaving q
| succession of like inefficiencies and both
| erations to their daughters. If there be
| no want of will, and oftenest their is none,
the fatality of this dowdy tragedy is igno-
| rance. When good intentions and inca
pacitv are united in the same person, the
spectacle cannot be otherwise than dis
heartening.
A poor woman may help herself in a
hundred ways while poor man, under
the same circumstances, would be utterly
helpless. She has taste and dexterities
which he would seek in vain to acquire.
1t would be an absurd waste Of time and
patience if he should undertake to make
his own coats and hats,-he would not on
ly fail egregiously to secure preseptable
appearance, but he would be laughed at
for the failure. OF what he would do if
he should try to cook the family breakfast.
it is needless to say anything. The nat
ural cleverness of woman, her bright per-
ceptons, her unfailing TACT her dexterity.
what a pity it is that these should be so
often wasted When their cultivated use
would save her from so much annoyance,
from so many dilemmas, and from morti-
tications which she feels so keenly She
needs but little teaching. for she is an apt
pupil. Heretofore she has been forced to
20 without it. because teaching has been
supposed to be mere matter of books.
A radical change in our system of educa-
ton, of which we see so many signs, will
make the world wonder that did not come
sooner
