little German with his nose peeled by the OBJ
streperous action of misdirected horse rake,
as he found out his mistake yesterday. He
had wandered, hunting for teapots and things,
into the office of the MORNING APPEAL. Why

and look at that valise of Pants. Valise! 1t
is travelling closet; peripatetic clothes

world or the other one ever saw such a thing
before. When not in use as a valise it can be
employed a shower bath, bowling alley,

BROKERS' OFFICE SCENE.

During the present exciting times in the
stock market, the different phases of human
ity who frequent the brokers' offices about
the time when the list comes in are quite a
study. The large holder of Sierra Nevada
Union and Bodie walks complacently up to
the counter and, with satisfied air, lances
over the quotations, then he sticks his thumbs
into the armholes of his vest and struts out
on to the sidewalk as if he weighed a ton.
The knowing (O one, who has shorted these
stocks, also scans the list, but with clouded
mien. His step is not very elastic; nor Is
his facial expression that of the greatest con-
tentment. He imagines himself the victim
of put up job" This msanthrop button
holes his friends on the street corners and
assures them that a terrible depreciation In
values is imminent But his warnings are
not heeded he is considered false prophet
because he is unsuccessful. Then, another
''stock sharp" can be encountered in these
haunts of the speculator. 1t is the impecu-
NOUS "sharp," who never has cent for in
vestment, but is as regular an attendant at
the brokers' Office as the millionaire He
generally comes in with his hands tucked
down deep in his seedy trowsers pockets,
carefully reads the list from beginning to end,
then pipes low but significant whistle and
saunters in the direction of a five-cent beer
saloon, where he soon becomes oblivious to
his Internally bad luck, as he terms it. The
most peculiar stock operator, though, is the
one of the feminine gender. She invariably
buys at tho north end when the south end is
going up, and vice versa. In these instances
the broker comes in for share of infuriated
female tongue lashing. The broker is accused
of all that is vile for not giving the fair
speulator "point," even if he had none to
give. There is another class of operators,
but we will refrain from mentioning its pecu-
iarities, because we are a member of it. But
the characters we have portrayed can be en-
oomtered in every brokers' Office in the
country.

"PANT" OPENS THE WHITE HOUSE.

Ever since Carson was Carson The White
House has been, spite of certain seasons of
depression, a very favorite place with people
who prefer boarding to keeping house. Some
thing about the structure of the place, some
thing between an ld-fashioned inn and a
new fashioned boarding house has made it
peculiarly acceptable to the resident and visit
ing public. After many vicissitudes, at length
it has fallen into pants" hands. If anybody
was ever designed by Providence for hotel
keeper it is John T. Pantlind. His genius lies
in the direction of Mine Host-as that worthy
character is additionally presented. Under
hr Pantlind's management the White House
will be sort Of supplement to the Ormsby
The cuisine will be under the general super
vision of Gettys, the chef of the Ornsby
The building is to be overhauled and rejuve-
mated from basement to garrett Its native
comfortableness will be supplemented by
many pleasant little contrivances of Pantlind's
own devising-and he is very fruitful of prac-
tical improvements. During the session of
the Legislature the White House, We doubt
not, will be the scene of many pleasant re-
union and the abiding place of much comfort
and social enjoyment, We congratulate all
concerned that this pleasant establishment
has fallen into such competent hands

OBrTUARY.-The Gold Hill Ne,cs of last
evening informs us that professor John NJ
Howe died in Virginia yesterday of old age
and debility. He was a gentleman of very
much note in the State of Ohio, and fol-
many years Professor of Languages i'll the
Mcintyre Academy, GAINESVILLE, and during
his professorship some of the foremost men
and women III the United States at the pres
ent time were his pupils among whom may
be named General w. T. Sherman, Thomas
Ewing and Mrs Gen. Sherman. When Gen.
Sherman and his wife were in Virginia, two
years ago, Mrs Sherman passed the whole
day with her old professor He was man
of rare scholastic attainments, and lived a
life of perfect purity, truth and gentleness
He was father-in-law of L. p. Drexler of
Virginia and uncle to Professor H. II. Howe
of Carson.
FRAUD ON MCGINLEY.-In our perigrina
lions about the city yesterday morning we
noticed, amongst other distinguished arrivals,
the Mckinley concert wagon, filled with a
company of happy tourists from the Lake,
and understand that they had pleasant and
profitable trip to, from and about the Lake,
playing at all points except Glenbrook, which
place was avoided, we are informed, from the
fact of some of the company being new to
the profession and the amount of ripe toma-
toes, etc., thereabout. The company was So
Iicited to give an entertainment here, but
owing to pressing engagements at Reno, go
hence. We wish Manager Maddrill success
in his new calling, and hope he will make it
convenient to play star engagement at
Carson.

was called for trial Trazer's attorney made
the point thatthe court was not court at all,
inasmuch as Judge Sutherland, who sat on
the bench. was not Judge within the intent
and requirement Of the constitution OF the
State. That instrument provides that "no
person shall hold the Office OF justice or Judge
Of any court longer than until and including
the hast day Of December next after he shall
be seventy years Of age" The plea set forth
that Judge Sutherland was seventy years of
age more than year ago, and by the provi-
sion Of the constitution ceased TO be q Judge
last New Years day, and was therefore dis
qualified from trying the case. The Judge re-
fused TO receive the plea, and ordered It re-
turned to the counsel, but 1t is binding none
the less, and the Judge will have to vacate

THE CAPITAL PRIZE.

The fact that the capital prize in the Louisf-
ana State Lottery was drawn last Tu esday
by gentleman in this city has been for two
days the subject OF general comment. This,
perhaps, is the shrewdest investment the
company, under the circumstances, could
have made. The prizes have, heretofore, been
like angels visits, few and far between, and
people were beginning to think that the game
was entirely a one-sided affair; and this, with
the persistent attacks of the DEMOCRAT, had
seriously damaged the business of the COM
pany. 1t was necessary, indeed, for the
Lottery Company to make some brilliant
stroke to reinfatuate the public, and discomfit
If possible, the DEMOCRAT, and SO it let out at
the last drawing a suspicious number of bril-
liant prizes in this city. The prizes drawn,
we are informed, will aggregate upwards of
$4,000, nearly all won in this city. Nobody
believes that the last drawing would have
been more fruitful In this respect than those
which preceded it had the concern not felt it to
be absolutely necessary to startle the country
and re-establish its sinking reputation. This
The New Orleans daily Democrat. [volume] (New Orleans, La.) 1877-1880, 1878-06-13

shows the beneficial influence Of honest and
independent criticism Of such institutions as
the lottery. The best thing to do with them
Is to break them up, as we will break up this
one; and the next best thing Is to force them
to play fairly, and give their victims some
chance for their money.
It must not be thought that this brilliant
move on the part Of the lottery will In any
way affect our war on 1t. indeed, we feel
that 1t Is of greater importance than ever to
expose and destroy 1t. The winning OF the
prizeswill naturally excite thousands to be-
come purchasers OF the tickets, and the wealth
and power Of the institution for evil will be
thereby increased. IT is now, therefore, more
than ever the duty of the people to aid us in
crushing IL out of existence.

The Matthews committee OF the Senate has
concluded not 10 enter on an investigation
during the present session, or to do any work
during July or August From this we assume
that Matthews and Sherman and their friends
have abandoned the project of opening up an
opposition mill for the purpose of distracting
the public attention from the disclosures of
the Potter investigation. The simple fact
that the resolution was made to cover the
election in every State in the Union is evil
denee enough that this was the purpose the
Senate committee was intended to subserve.
Those who had the project in hand seem to
have reached the very sensible conclusion
that the device was impracticable, and they
have. consequently, abandoned it. Or is it
possible that Stanleys fellow Senators do not
estimate so highly as he does the sacred priv

q very remarkable Individual. She came
ever from England In search of fortune,
landing la New York with just 81 rs In her
pocket. She rented loft In Pearl street and
began 10 make and sell brides, and when she
died she owned an immense establishment in
which she employed hundred hands. She

and shaved three times q week. In fact, she

It has long been mystery how the hos tile
Indians got arms and ammunition wherewith
to open their spring campaigns. OF course it
has all along been known that they were fur
nished by the ring, but through what agen-
cles has not been known. Recently number
81 orders ON Boise city merchants for the
sale Of small quantities Of powder and car
tridges to the hostile B knocks, signed by
Gov. Brayman, have been found. It is
III this way that Buffalo Horn and other
chiefs have succeeded in obtaining a large
amount OF ammunition. 1t seems to us about
time that an end should be put to this brutal
speculation, based on the murder and savage
torture Of our froRtiersmeR and troops. Any
thing more fiendish and inhuman than the
methods by which the Indian ring works up
It's sp8culations and robbery has never been
known 70 the world. There must be way of
dealing etfectually with the Indians, and we
have no doubt it could be readily found If
this cold-blooded yillainy and cupidity of gov
eminent officials could be eliminated from the
problem.
