A Parable for Stock Dealers.

A greyhound lay before the door
of a palatial mansion. Men stopped
to gaze on an animal which could
not fail to elicit the encomiums of
any lover Oh beauty. But the beau
tiful creature. with its mild eye and
graceful form, needed not the plaudits
of the multitude. A step is heard !;
it raises its beautiful head in an atti-
tude of attention; joy beams in its
eye, and with cry of welcome it
bounds toward its master. But he,
more brute than the dumb creature,
with a blow and a curse casts it
from him and enters the house; and
the poor thing, with downcast mien,
slinks to the door and mournfully
lays to await his return. Look
once again it listens, and as its mas
ter appears, in fear it retreats to a
distance; but with Outstretched hand
he calls it to him, and the poor dumb
brute with joy bounds toward him
and ticks the hand that smote it.

The Julia.SutrO Tunnel Drift.

The drift to connect the Julia work.
ings with the Sutro tunnel will be
begun at once. 1t will be run so as
to clear the Julia shaft. Its width
will probably be the same as that OF
the tunnel header (sxl0 feet), The
drift will be continued beyond the
Julia and Ward to the Yellow Jacket
new shaft and the other workings of
the Gold Hill mines. AS the Tunnel
company would have been compelled
to run this south branch, anyway,
the amount received or to be received
from the Julia Company (some
$10O, 900, more or less) as consider
alton for driving the drift, may be
considered as a dead lift" and
as F" clear fat" It is barely possi-
Bile, however, that the Bay papers
have misstated the case, and that the
money above referred to is not to be
paid as an inducement to run the
drift, but as compensation for the
benefits to accrue to the Julia COM
pany from the connection with the
Sutro tunnel.
Work on this drift was begun yes
terday morning.

The following is an accurate des-
cription of Tom Lawton, the MUIR

out California, Oregon, Nevada and
adjoining Territories copy, with a
view to having him captured; t
Tom Lawton is about Eve feet seven
or eight inches in hight; slim and
trim built; almost black hair and
moustache-the latter being proba-
bly, shaved off; complexion fair; deep
set dark eyes; face inclined to be
sharp, particularly the nose; weighs
about lao pounds; age about 20; in
clined to be genteel, and generally
well dressed; he sometimes wore a

THE DEMOCRATIC COUNTY CON.
VENTION.
The Election of Delegates to Be
Held Next Saturday-The Num-
Der to be Elected.

The election of delegates to the
Lyon County Democratic Convention
will be held next Saturday. There
seems to be no great interest felt in
the election, as there is no rivalry
for any Of the Offices excepting the
Shrievalty. For the latter office there
are two candidates, and each will
probably run separate ticket in
Sutro and Dayton; but in the other
precincts there will probably only be
one ticket. The Convention will
convene on Saturday, September IA,
at 10 o'clock A. NJ, in the Court
house at Dayton, and will be COM
posed of 26 delegates, apportioned
as follows; From Silver, IL; from
Dayton, 6; from Sutro, A; from
Churchill, 2, from Waubuska, l; and
from Eureka mill, /.

POLITICAL ANNOUNCEMENTS.

r. E. Lowery is a candidate for
Justice of the Peace in township No.
2, subject to the decision of the
Democratic Convention of Storey
county. Mr.. Lowery is lawyer of
fair ability; he has been Speaker of
the Legislature, and has therefore d
good knowledge of both common
and parliamentary law. He would
make a good Justice.
E. L. Buckingham is candidate
for Assessor of Storey county on the
Republican side. He is an old resi-
dent of Storey county, has served
two or three terms in the Legislature,
and is said to have stood by all his
pledges. He deserves some reward
at the hands of the party, and it is
likely that he will get it in the nomi-
nation for this Office.
R. Fl. Taylor is candidate for
District Attorney before the Repub-
llcan Convention Of Storey county.
Colonel Taylor is Pacific Coast
Pioneer, an old newspaper man, and
lawyer of considerable ability.
His popularity among all classes is
very great, and he would doubtless,
if nominated, be elected by large
majority. He is the strongest man
yet mentioned tor the place on the
Republican side.

MIR. JENvEY,S RESIGNATION.

His Church Work in this City to
Cease Next Sunday-Where He
Goes, and Why.
The Rev. w. r. Jenvey has re-
signed the assistant rectorship OF the
Episcopal Church IN Virginia City to
accept the rectorship of Trinity
church, in Reno. The reverend
gentleman will therefore be COM
PEELED to cease his work in this city.
This will be a most unwelcope an
nouncement to the attendants OF
Grace Church. During the four
years that Mr.. Jenvey has been in
charge of the church work here ne
has never missed an appointed SER
vice. Neither snow, nor rain, nor
hail, nor wind, nor cold, nor heat
has ever prevented him from keep
ing an engagement. When he came
here there was no place of worship,
and the few Episcopalians in town
were compelled to meet in the
schoolhouse; but he soon had q
church erected and furnished, and it
must be matter of great satisfaction
to him that he leaves it entirely free
of debt. The reverend gentleman
will conduct the services as usual, on
next Sunday evening, when he will
deliver his farewell address. In
note to the editor of the TIMES, Mr..
Jenvey states that he is unable to say
that the services in this city will be
continued. but he hopes that they
will be. The following extract from
the gentleman's note will show that
the change to Reno is made in obe-
dience to a high sense of duty;
"The unfortunate part of the
change is, shall be compelled to
cease my most pleasant church work
in Silver City. assure you that
do this with extreme reluctance. l
only do 1t under a pressure OF cir
cumstanoes. If I we're doing it with
q view to the lettering of myself in
any personal way should feel that
1 was abandoning a good work in a
manner not creditable to myself.
But this am not doing. Reasons OF
a private nature have caused me to
resign, and, not wishing TO leave the
work going on in the State, I am go.
ing where believe can do good"
The Sunday school will be reor-
ganized at 8 O'Clock next Sunday
afternoon.

SHIT no RECOVER A $40 MARE
The Costs Already Exceeding $500,
and the End Not Yet.

A case of considerable local inter-
est was tried in the District Court
last Monday. Some months ago Mr..
Vance, foreman of Elders teams,
sued M. Landry, of this city, to re-
cover an indebtedness of $57 So.
He obtained judgment and caused to
be attached q mare which was in
Landry's stable. After the attach
ment L. Rochon, another resident of
this city, claimed the mare as his
property, and served notice to that
effect upon Constable Hill. The
Constable, having obtained an in
demnity bond from Mr.. Vance, sold
the mare, and Mr.. Rochon sued to
recover possession Of the animal.
The case came up in Justice Tait's
court in due time, and judgment
was given in favor of the Constable,
whereupon Mr.. Rochon appealed to
the District Court. 1t was called on
Monday, and, the witnesses on each
side having testified, the case was
given to the jury, Judge Seawell in
structing them to find for plaintiff
if they believed the sale valid. AS the
case hung upon the validity Of the
sale, many in the courtroom, when
they heard the Judges charge, be-
lieved that the plaintiff had clear
case. Some of the jury seem to have
entertained different opinion, how
ever, as they came into court, Tues
day noon, and reported that they
were unable to agree upon a YER
dict. They we're discharged.
It is understood that seven were
in favor of the defendant, and five
against him. The mare is said not
to be worth over $40, and the costs
in the case already exceed $500.
Whoever finally loses will therefore
have quite sum to pay.

Convention.
The Place, This City. and the Date May %
The Basis OF Representation.

INDIANAPOLIS, Jan. AT meeting of the
state central committee of the independent
greenback party, this day held in the CITY of
indianapolis, it was ordered that state con-
vertion be held in the city of Indianapolis
on Wednesday, the 22d day of May 1878. for
the purpose of nominating candidates for
state offices, to be voted for at the ensuing
October election, and for the transaction of
such further business as might properly be
brought before said convention. Ali persons
In the state who desire to act with the indie
pendents to establish the sovereignty of the
man over the dollar, and the emancipation
OF the people from the domination of the
money power, are cordially invited to partic-
ipate in the deliberations and action of said
convention.
The basis of representation was established
upon the total vote cast for all candidates
for governor in this state in 1876, apportion-
ing one delegate for each 500 votes cast and
one for each fraction of $50, adding thereto
one delegate for each 100 votes and one for
each fraction of so cast for the greenback
ticket in 1876. Said apportionment gives to
each county the representation as appears
by the statement hereto annexed.
The committee recommends to the people
of each county that they appoint their dele
gates TO this state convention On or before
May l, 1878, and report the names of such
delegates to the chairman. All correspon-
dence to be addressed to the chairman at
Indianapolis, Indiana.
By order of the committee.

A QUAKER society in Iowa decided to build
a meeting house, and, strange to say, it has
what never Quaker meeting house had-a
steeple. Over this departure from the usage
of the Friends there was a lengthy discus
sion. The elders opposed the steeple, and
fathers as arguments IN their favor. The
younger members of the society had just one
declaration to make, but it was all-powerful:
eff no steeple is built We shall not contribute
e penny" The pennies won, and the meet
ing house has pretty, graceful spire.

ton was calculating their financial and
spiritual worth. These ushers last Sunday
had little friendly banter over the number
of persons that each could show to pews. AS
the congregation increased the contest waxed
warm, angry looks were exchanged and now
and then they muttered phrases not to be
found in any theological work. At last, in
the eagerness OF his zeal, one of the ushers
encroached on the territory OF the other,
bearing off as prize some aristocratic look
ing ladies. In an instant Ghere were clenched
fists and falling hair, and not until the
brethren and minister parted them were
there any signs of cessation. The congregation
was dismayed, all but the small boys, who
whistled and patted their hands, and wanted
them to flight it out" There's nothing like
competition in trade, and for the next few.
Sundays that church will not lack congre-
ton, but until the arnica has done its healing
work other ushers must serve the throng.
