PRITCHARD. -Pritchard, who was convicted
OF murder in the first degree in the District
Court on Saturday last, will be sentenced on
Saturday next. The verdict meets with gen
eral approval. Pritchard was man who was
Of no use to the world he lived in He was

qnenty defed the officers and the law. The
day before he shot Symons he had asserted
that Symons could not take him. Such men
had better be out of the world than in, and
il is a misfortune to themselves and society
that they ever born. The woman he
had lived with and her mother went up on
Saturday nights train, after the verdict had
been rendered, and both were drunk.
PIANOS AND OEGANs-At San Francisco
prices, can be had on easy terms at the rooms
of the Reform Club. Mr.. FanR will give
personal attention to customers, and explain
the pecularities of the various makes. All

and old ones taken in exchange Orders for
sheet, music or books, promptly furnished,
and reliable piano tuner at the shortest
notice. n14-1mt
NEW BALLs-Some time ago the APPEAL
announced that the Reform Club billiard table
had been furnished with new balls. 1t proved
to be false alarm, and the same old crooked
and hsured balls have been in use ever since |
Yesterday Mr.. ByrRe, President of club, in
formed an APPEAL reporter that he had |
actually ordered new balls, and they would |
arrive from San Francisco during the present
week. This will be cheering news for lovers
of the game. and due notice will be given
when the worries finally arrive.
WILD GEEss-While the Carson Guards
were practicing at their targets on Sunday
flock of geese flew directly over the range and
all hands turned loose on the birds. The
whz Of the balls frightened the fowls and
they broke their line, which at the time was
as true as a file of soldiers. The geese were
badly demoralized but not one was hit They
were at least 500 yards from the ground and
by no means an easy mark to hit.

THE CARSON MINT.
WHY COINAGE has BEEN sUsPaNnhp Asn
wHhH 1T WILL BE KEsUMED.

A dispatch to the Es-".,.g Chrof..c.e from
Washington says: With reference to recent
pointed comments of several Pacific coast
newspapers, it is stated at the Treasury De
partment that the reason for suspending oper
atoms at the Carson Mint WAS because sui
icient bullion could not be obtained III thai
vicinity tc warrant continuing coinage at Car
son. This, according to the Departments
information, VAS owing to the fact that the
principal Nevada mine owners preferred to
ship their bullion direct to San Francisco for
refining because they are pecuniariy interest
ed in large private refinery there. Director
Burchard says the rates for purchasing silver
for the Carson Mint have been fixed from
time to time at precisely the same figures as
the Philadelphia and San Francisco mnts,
and that whenever bullion can be obtained to
Justify operating the Carson Mint, coinage at
Carson will be resumed

The CoEsToCK WALKING MATCH. The
Comstock walking match closed on Sunday at
noon, Mike Kennedy, the newspaper carrier,
being the winner. Kennedy was mere boy,
and reminded one more than anything else
of the famous "Smallbones " in Snarlyough
(the name is doubtless spelled wrong, as the
reporter has constructed the word from mem
ory). He looked like a walking skeleton on
the track, and his mother woman of con-
siderable avolrdupoise, was his nurse and en-
couraged him from private box. She backed
him to the extent of $3.50, nearly every cen:
she had, and it il encouraging to know that
he, by winning, takes the pot of ST. 900, each
of the other three contestants having also put
in $3.50 a piece. No doubt the presence of
the boys mother nerved him to pnt forth his
best efforts. Whenever he Jagged she wonld
say, Get along now Mike" as he passed the
box, and whenever he made squirt she wend
clap her hands and say, Walk the legs off
EN-, Mike. Now you've struck it. His
score was 1862 miles Wilcox, the blacksmith,
m ade 355 miles, and Chenoveth 271 The
fourth man left the track early in the contest
The short distance covered can only he &C.
counted for by the fact that it takes SO laps
to make mile, and the quick turns are very
hard on the knees. Kennedy made his last
mile in six minutes and sight seconds, after
Which he received the championship medal Of
Nevada, Dr. Bergstein making the presenta
lion speech. Thirty per cent. of the gross
receipts goes to the managers, and the remain
ng seventy pei cent. is to be equally divided
between Kennedy, Wilcox and Chenoweth.

TABLE ETIQUETTE. The following rules for
the guidance of those who eat may be of ser
vice to the readers of the APPEAL.
| Never rush in on family without giving
them warming, AZ you rnn the risk Of not get
ing enough. If the plate handed yuu by the
host doesn't contain the part of the fowl which
| suits you hest, pass it to the lady next you
| with polite bow. Ii you sit down at a
| restaurant with friend, allow him to carve
the steak. If he is gentleman he is bound to
give you the tender side. If he is not, hog
the tender side yourself, as poiiteness to such
man is like casting pearls in a pig pen.
Never refuse an Invitation to dinner unless
you smell something cooking of which you
are not fond, or unless you think that by
stopping house or two further on you can
fare better. Never decline onions, for if you
do, the man of the house will think you are
in love with his wife. Take the onions on
your plate all the same; and by covering them
up with some mashed potatoes, you will lead
the old fellow to think you have eaten them.
By kicking his wifes shins under the mahog-
ony you can put her on her guard to do like
wise Don't look aghast when you upset
bowl of gravy in somebody's lap, but be ready
with some little joke which will set the table
laughing and detract attention from the mis-
hap. A nicely turned pleasantly will some
times make the man on whom you spill the |
gravy forget all about it. If there is a big /
dog around the house, throw few pieces of
meat at it, This will make you solid with the |
the dog and pieases the children. When the |
champagne gives out grab up an empty bottle, |
tip the small end down toward your hosts |
glass with pleasant Permit me 70 refill |
your glass" then on precevIng the inward
emptiness of the bottle, affect suppressed
surprise Few men can withstand hint like
his. If you get drunk, quote some of W. (.
Weare's poetry, and the company i'll their dis
gust at the poem will overlook the fact Of
FOUR into1ication. Never refuse al invitation
o dine, as it is a reflection on the party in
'iting you. Jeems Pipes made this one of
lis rules of living, and he lived by it for years.

JUST HER INTERNAL LUCE. The maddest
woman on earth lives ia Carson For some
wears past she has been separated from her
husband and Yesterday as an APPEAL reporter
was passing the house he heard heart rending
sobbings coming from within. With that
desire to succor females in distress, character
ist,c of native born Americans, he entered the
house to proffer his feeble condolences.
What might be the matter madam =
ooh my husbands dead Oh my Lord, he
died ON the LIST in San Francisco and | Just
heard it.
Don't take on that way, my good woman;
the heavy hand of atAictipn presses us all,
the Just as well as the an inst. The country
is full of Just as good husbands as he, no
doubt"
THAT amt the idea; only day before yes
terday paid three hundred and fifty dollars
to get divorce, (boo hoo) and the old fraud
had died week before. Just think OF
squanderin' that much money to get divorce
from a dead man. It's the toughest deal |
