turned next day than is left. The route
agent, Mr.. Pease, is an old man and
long in the service. For many years
he has been on the Lake Champlain

spoken of as honest and Intelligent, but

MRS. LAKES LECTURE.

The Carson Theater was well filled last
night by an attentive audience who had as
sembled to hear Mrs. Lakes lecture against
Romanism. Mother Church gets scolded
right soundly by this spirited little lady
whose manner and matter are not by any
means lacking in force and eloquence. Some
how, however, the Church of Rome lives on,
gathering strength, spite of its assaiants,
Sermons have been preached from Protestant
lips to show that the teaching of certain
Protestant sects tend toward rationalism,
which means inidelity this assumption,
meaning, if it means anything, that the world
must either drift on into infdel;ty or back
into the True Faith as taught by Mother
Church. And, if the truth must be con-
fessed, we ourselves are drifting toward such
a conclusion. Any departure from the an
cient faith is, to say the least, irregular and
revolutionary. If it started right, it is right
to-day; if it started wrong, then are we all
adrift This, however, is the opinion secular
and rationalistlc, and not religious or emo
tional. Doubtless Mrs. Lakes lecture serves
to instruct and awaken and let us hope 1t
will prove to be abundant of good seed sowed
on fallow ground, bringing forth fruit.

FRANK OSBISTON'S OPINION OF ST.
EZRA NEVADA.

In last evenings Chronicle appears the re-
port of an interview between reporter for
that paper and Mr.. Frank Osbiston, the well
known mining superintendent, relative to the
Sierra Nevada crosscut Here is what Mr..
Osbiston is reported as saying
"All have to say about the mine is that
[ have been down to the 220O crosscut and
found the face of it in very rich ore. l never
saw the nine looking so we'll as it does now.
The lower part of the crosscut, two-thirds OF
it, is in rich ore, and the upper one-third has
Just passed through the cap rock and is in ore
not quite so rich. Now here is piece of ore
we have picked up at random"
Here Mr. Osbiston exhibited lump OF
black sulphuret ore, exceedingly rich. he
also showed the reporter the assayers certlh-
cate of the value of piece taken from the
same $500 10 per ton. In conclusion
DIR. Osbiston stated that he never before was
80 confident of the future prosperity of the
mine as now.
Reporter-Then to what cause do you as
cribe the present depression
Mr.. Osbiston-To panic originating in the
fact that the first ore reached few days ago
was only stringer This circumstance was
taken advantage of by the bears, and they got
up considerable panic. You know how diff
fcult it is to stop one of these panics.
In conclusion Mr.. Osbiston stated that he
had no doubt that the stock would be up to
the old figure in few days

STOCKS AND STORES.

The autumnal season creeps on apace.
And yet it is warm and springlike-e
balmy in the sunlight of southern exposures.
Still the prudent storekeeper is careful of his
wares, lest they become low when the stormy
season comes and there be avalanches and
other obstacles to the free course of inter
state commerce, as it WERE Thus we observe
that
THE CLOTHIERS,
Bosko, Platt, Harris, Olcovich and the rest
are replenishing their stock and store of the
seasonable things where withal civilized man
becomes, as Senator Nye was wont TO re-
mark, " clothed in the habiliments OF Amer
can citizenship" And so you see great bales
and boxes of the merchandise that these
dealers keep on hand standing by their door
WAYS. awaiting distribution within and with
out And thus, also, the careful observer
notes the replenishing of the stocks and as
sentiments of the
HARDWARE MERCHANTS,
Like Rail and Wagner, whose many new
stoves, great varieties of ironmongery, choice
shelf goods, not to specify gimlets and cork
screws. butts and sail-needles, ct cetera and
so forth, are exceedingly abundant and clev-
erly selected. AS to
GROCERIES,
See what immense assortments are arriving
at ellison & BARRIERS, Mason Brothers Rein
stein & Gibsons, Harris Brothers and the
other houses where general assortment OF
:. West India Goods and Groceries are kept.
The man who fears a short allowance of the
necessaries of life looks at these preparations
and is treasured AS to the
DRY GOODS DEALERS,
They too are preparing for the emergencies
of the season and its attendant holidays.
Mrs. Jacob Sheyer & Co., the Harris Broth
ers, Morris & Co. and the Olcovich Brothers,
look how their shelves are beg inning to be
heaped with the fabrics of the loom, the car
net weaver, the lace maker, the cunning
worker in leather, the fashloner OF hosiery,
and the product of the silkworm and the
furrier Indeed, all our merchants, our me-
chanics, our tavern keepers, our cocktail
mixers, our professional men, our ants and
our grasshoppers, all, all are laying in stock
and store of things in their respective ways
against the rainy day. So the little city is
getting itself in shape for the business of the
future.

the railway depot. The fight was witnessed
by a number of white men, who took no in

a requisition on dry goods store for the alb

Knights assumed an attitude which denoted
that continuance of the combat would not
prove acceptable, then, and only then was it
stopped.
