SAYS the Reno Record: We take pleas
ure in congratulating our fellow Democrats
ON the nomination Of J. E. Jones, Of this
county, for State Treasurer ON our ticket.
Mr. Jones is eminently qualified for that
Office. He is honest. faithful, and has the
ability to successfully perform every duty
appertaining to that high Office. Socially,
he is q gentleman; politically, he is a host.
We hail his nomination, and only impa-
tiently bide the time when We shall see
him indicted into his high trust. Again
do we find an instance where merit meets
is reward.

The Republican press in the western
part of the State starts in on a very de-
termined canvass all along the line. The
Enterprise, appeal, Tribune and Gold
Hill Ne,cs are especially spirited. The
few Democratic papers over that way are
not doing much. Herein is presented one
Of the most doubtful signs of the campaign.
1t will not do to allow these Republican
prints to take the bulge and keep it. Their
wild charges will be fatal if not counter
acted. We must have more yigor and
hell-fre in the Democratic press, not only
in the west, but along the line Of the rail-
road. Some Of these papers could fight
honest anti-third term Democrats, but
now that they have secured their ticket
they haven't a word to say for it. 1t is
even charged openly that the Silcer State
will support Kinkead. We are slow to be-
lieve it, but our Humboldt contemporary
has not contradicted the statement, which
has already appeared in a number of Re-
publican journals. Is the Democratic
party to be permitted to go to the devil
across lots through Generalization and in
action on the part Of the Democratic press?
II really looks like it. We are speaking
plainly because the subject is one which
demands cold facts and plain talk. A de-
fensive campaign was never yet a success.

DENVER, Col. sept. Is.
The immense yield of the silver mines
in the new district at LeadAille, Colorado,
has produced an extraordinary influx OF
miners and capitalists. Three railroads
are extending their branches towards
Lcadville. The Denver and Rio Grande,
and the Atchison, Topeka and Sante Fe
companies are each vigorously pushing
their Leadville extensions, both routes
being located through the same canyons
and valleys, 1t is publicly announced
here that the former company has con-
tracted for the immediate grading and
equipment of the entire liue. A large
force Of laborers has been employed there,
for it is believed the completion of the
road will enormously increase the silver
yield by rendering profitable & very large

A Young Husbands Troubles With
Limburger.
tFairbault (Afiss.) Telegraph. j


A young gentleman of Fairbault-a
boy among the boys-whe occasionally
visited saloons and sampled lambs
tongue, pigs feet, tripe, and actually
educated himself to like Limburger
cheese, after a while married, as such
men will. His wife is cultivated and
sensitive little creature, as lovable as
she is sensitive. Well, Robert-that
was his name, Bob for short-shook the
boys after marriage, as he ought, and
stopped around home, for two or three
weeks. every evening; but there were
times when he had an awful hankering
for his old relishes, such as hereinbefore,
especially the cheese, and one evening
being down on an errand, he thought
he would take a Limburger home and
have an old-fashioned lunch before re-
firing. He got the cheese and started
for home, but as he neared the house it
struck him that it was the rankest
cheese, even for Limburger, in all his
experience. People held their noses as
they met him, and every dog in the
front yard went around behind the
house as he went by. Before he reached
home his courage gave out, and he
slipped his bundle into hole in the
gate-post, thinking he would 60 in and
interview his wife-sort of prepare her
for the meeting, as it were. But he was
scarcely in the house before his wife
gave warning sniff, and looking athim
sharp inquired if he was sure he hadn't
stepped in something. Bob mistrusted
what was the matter, but innocently
looked at one foot and then at the
other, and said, "No, my feet are all
right" Mrs. Bob gave sniff or two
more, got up, opened the door, closed
it suddenly and then went into the
rooms leading toward the rear of the
house. She was gone about five min
utes, and in the meantime Bob became
satisfied what the trouble was, but fol

A Sunday in London,

lNoiicoPohuciit hiinutiPhia Icuecr-J
London pays all possible respect to
the Sabbath. 1t is the characteristic of
English in contradistinction to the
French people that sunday is kept
sacred to holy duties. In Paris the
shops are open on Sunday, and the
operas and theaters give their grandest
performances, the chief elections are
held, and the great horse races take
place in the Bois de Baulogne Paris
devotes Sunday to just those things
which England and America would
think least appropriate to the day but
London keeps Sunday as closely as Phil
'adelphia, almost all the population 60
ing to church or taking innocent re-
creation in the afternoon in the parks or
suburbs. Consequently the London
Sunday, with the stores all closed, the
streets almost deserted, except by church
goers, and all the church bells ringing,
has close resemblance to an Ameri-
can Sabbath. At this time so many
American clergymen are in England,
particularly of the Episcopal Church,
whose great Conference has just closed,
that many of the pulpits are being filled
with my countrymen, and at the two
great churches of London, st. PauPs

WHITE JASMINE.

White jasmine stretches far and wide,
Along the gray walls southern side
Its graceful branches wreathei
And winds Of summer sweet and low,
Among its yerdure and its snow,
Their tender music breathe.
The garden beds that once were gay
And fragrant all the summer day,
Are empty and forlorH;
1he hungry bees afar have flown,
The gravel walks are weed o'ergrown,
The trellis-roseis torn.
Within the house each empty room
Is shut In Silent rzyless gloom,
With cherries hearthstone cold;
No pictures smile upon the wall,
No single trace Is lett Of all
We cherished 50 Of old.
But in the southern sunshine bright,
And by the jasmine, clad in white,
Aynuthful maiden stands,
With lips that speak Of sad unrest;
A bunch Of daisies OF her breast,
And jasmine in her hands.
With farewell looks Of aching love,
Her brown eyes wander round, above
It is sacred spot;
The home of childish grief and mirth,
The home whence dearest dead went forth
To share earth's common lot.
All, maidenl as the jasmine snow
Doth vanish, so the years that 90

Lord Byron's Daughter,

Byron's only child married the Earl
of Lovelace, descendant of Lord Chan
cellor King, John Locke's favorite
nephew, and had two sons and one
daughter. Lady Lovelace had every
right to be peculiar, and was SO. Her
eldest son, too, was perfectly and most
inconveniently eccentric. While at
Eton College he stopped a carriage, pre-
sented pistol, and robbed some ladies,
and committed divers other strange
deeds; and, at length, having utterly ex-
hausted the patience of his family, be-
came a workman in Scott RusselPs ship
building yard on the Thames, where, at
the time of his death, he was on the
eve of marriage to carpenters s
daughter. He had some good points
about him, Notwithstanding his strange
ness, and might perhaps ultimately have
developed into useful man; but this
was not to be. He was succeeded by his
brother, who inherited, at his maternal
grandmother death, her Barony of
Wentworth, with a seat in the House of
Lords. A few years ago Lord Went
worth, who, in currentphrase, "doesn't

of Rev. George Heriot. His wife was
for a season or two the reigning beauty

A Bashful Young Man.
Virginia City Chronicle.l

This morning a strong, healthy-look-
ing young man entered the County
Clerks Office and. gazed respectfully
around. Harry Thompson, the Chief
Deputy, stepped up and blandly in
quired Of the stranger if he wished any
| business transacted.
The young man when spoken to
started back as though dreading an
assault, but he soon recovered himself,
and said, in whisper:
"Yes, sir; called to see-I wanted to
have little talk-bow much is it, any
how?"
He had soft cloth hat in his hand,
and kept turning and twisting it about
as he spoke; his face had grown terribly
red, and big drops of perspiration were
standing on his brow.
What is it you wantT' asked the
clerk.
The man looked at him pleadingly,
but struggled in vain for utterance.
His eyes bulged out, his face grew
lredder, and the veins in his neck and
on his forehead swelled till they looked
| like knotted cords. He twisted the hat
convulsively, and then Strengthened it
out again, and then pulled the new
lining out of it, and dropped it on the
floor. Then he picked it up all dusty
from the floor and wiped his steaming
face, leaving dirty streak after each
wipe. Finally, it seemed as though the
poor young man had quite recovered
himself, for he looked cheerfully around
the room, and then turning to Mr..
Thompson, remarked in pleasant and
confidential tone:
"Well, it is real warm for this section,
isn't itf''
every warm, indeed" replied Mr..
Thompson.
st is a good deal hotter than we
have it down in the valley, and somehow
I've always had Just the other notion
about it-that the higher up you got the
cooler"
eyes," said MIR. Thompson, "but
about that business of yours?'
Another fiery blush that looked as if
it would scorch the collar off his neck
followed this remark, but the stranger
held up bravely. He leaned on the
| desk in an easy, careless sort of way,
and began to toy with mucilage brush.
"The fact Of the matter is that
wanted to-"
Here he paused again and medita-
lively jammed the mucilage brush into
the inkstand.
"What the devil are you doing with
that brush ?" asked the clerk somewhat
impatiently.
"Oh, by George-excuse mel" stam-
mered the man as he withdrew the
brush, scattering the ink all over the
clerks shirt-bosom, and, as if it had
been molasses dripping from his fingers,
thrust the brush into his mouth, daub-
ing himself with ink and mucilage, and
then bolted from the office.
"That's about the worst case 1 have
seen," remarked Mr.. Thompson, as he
wiped a big ink-spot from the starboard
side of his Roman nose.
Crazy as bedbug," said Alderm an
Orndorf, who had been an interested
spectator of the whole scene. You
ought to send a policeman after that
man."
"No, he's not exactly crazy" re-
| piled Thompson, az knew from the
start that he wanted marriage license,
and I thought I'd have a little quiet
| fun, but he's broke the line now and
| gone off with the hook"
