Boys is strange things. Boys ls OF three
kinds. The baby boy, the little BOY
and the biz boy, I don't like the baby
boy, because he squalls and kicks, and
I have to rock him with cradle. But !
the big boy squalls or kicks ] can rock
him with stones. l like the little boy
the best when it SHOWS, cause he can
haul me on his sled. A boy is a little
man. if he behaves himself, and If he
doesn't, he is a little devil THAT is what
mother said BROTHER Boy was the other
day when he told old Miss Smith that
mother said she was an old bore. My
papa said he was little boy once, but
mother said that she wasn't and wishes
papa was little boy some more. SIS
Ter Julia says she dent like boys, and
when | saw her and Tom Brown a SIT
ting in the rocking chair on Sunday
night, she said she was trying to squeeze
the life out of him cause she didn's like
him; but don't think she was hurting
any place, for he wouldn't let her get
up. This is all know about boys, and
mother says she hopes | won't never

That your love in the future should faithfully be
Unsharsd by another, kept only for me.

1t Is a fact that has been noticed and
commented upon time out OF mind, thai
many husbands neglect those little at
tentlons and marks Of affection of which
they were SO lavish during .courtship.-

INTERPRETER TO BULL
Legitimatc Drama.

We understand there is a proposition
to devote two nights each week at Sam
Whitney's opera house, to the legitimate
drama, and an arrangement has been made
for that purpose with the Reno troupe,
who, with the assistance Of the opera
house company, will place upon the
boards some of the leading dramas of the
day. During those evenings the entrance
to the bar room from the theatre will be
closed, and neither drinking or smoking
will be allowed in the auditorium, nor
will any Objectionable characters be al
lowed in the theatre. The entrance will
be at the side door, The inauguration
piece is to be the popular temperance
play "Ten Nights in Bar ROOM" 1t is
to be hoped that our citizens will encour-
age the reform, and thus secure place
where our ladies can occasionally nave a
little amusement. "

The Black Hills Mines.

Mark Thompson, a California expert
has this to say in an official report of the
Black Hills Mines,
"There are three districts mineral belts,
or systems of gold bearing quartz veins
traversing the Black Hills in northern
ly and southernly dissection, for distance
of about sixty miles, and although the ore
found in these different belts have the
same characteristics, they are separated by
regularquartited dykes running paralll with
them. IJudglDg from the present de
developments which are but surface work
ings, even in the Oldest and best mines
here, the Black Hills is mining region
peculiar to itself, and there would seesn to
be much trath in the maxim which has
obtained such marked popularity.
Where you find a mine in the Black
Hills you have it, But if science and
practical skill affords any grounds on
which to base an opinion, future develop
ments will establish the fact that the pc
cularities talked about as attaching to the
Black Hills, are but surface deep. As
true, perfect fissure veins are found here
as IN any mining country yet discovered,
and with Developments, the same rules
which have been successfully applied to
the best, most productive mines in the
world for the past twenty-five years will
prove equally etficatieus here. In point
of fact, the chief distinctive feature Of the
Black Hills mines is found in the free
milling character of their quartz
