WELCOME
STRANGER.
GENEROUS

About half past o'clock yesterday morn
| from his breakfast, a small boy on the corne,
of Carson and Telegraph streets, noticing his
approach, had the kindness to start up the
horse harnessed to the Carson laundry wagon.
The animal headed for line of teams hitched
in front of the Court House with the com
mendable intention of sweeping them from
their moorings. Every possible assistance was
rendered by half dozen people ON the side walk
who threw up their hands and shouted at the
top of their voices Their demonstrations,
although well meant, were defeated by the
laundry wagon identifying itself with an avn
ing post. The horse broke the whftie tree,
and peeling off it's harness, ran mp the street,
leaving the wagon in somewhat demoralized
condition. The new reporter of the APPEAL wish
es to extend his thanks to the boy who started
the horse and the people who kept him going,
The repertor is a comparative stranger ia this
and such lordly welcomes fill
him with the encouragement that his stay here |
will be pleasant one. The damages amounted |
to about $16 The dirty linen of number |
Of leading families was strewed along the J
street, but most of it was recovered. Later
N the day a collar marked j. Kinkead and
pair of socks belonging to Jewett Adams was
ound several blocks from the scene OF disaster
md returned to their owners

DIvoRCnD AND REpNITED-W. B. Daugh 7
ty, clerk in the Controllers Office, was married
at Reno on Sunday to his former wife, from
whom he was divorced some two years ago. /,
appears thas there was some misunde. and
ing at the time, which resulted in separation.
Since then various misty circumstances have
been satisfactorily cleared up, and for the
past year both parties have felt that they
could not live happily without each other.
The longer Daugherty was without his esti-
mabe wife the more he missed her, an |
hnally-weil they were married as above de-
scribed. He has fitted up 4 neat little cotta.e

He knew to dead certainty that his wife
would be there before the day was over and
make a hole in his pock et- book for no woman

and her Secretary of State an Irishman, and
of her thirteen Congressmen only FIVE are na

The Milwaukee Sentinel, speaking of Pres
idential candidates, says: I'VE don't want
torchlight man. What is wanted is a level
headed man who has too much sense to de-
velop useless party wrangles, and backbone
enough to form and carry out reasonable and
sensible plans for administrative reform. Ed
munds is that man."
A politician may not forget his calling, even
at q funeral. Senator Bayard, who visited
Texas to attend Congressman Schleicher's re
mains to their final resting place, felt the
pulse of every Texan he met in regard to the
proposed division of the Lone Star State into
two States. The Democrats must have two
more Senatorial and Presidential votes.
The Democratic South says: ''If the
Northern Democracy is of opinion that it can
get along without US, let them try it." In the
House Democratic caucus of 147 the South
has 80 votes, and evidently holds the balance
of power. Ii threatens to vote against any
Western or Northwestern appropriation until
the Mississippi matter is settled.
The yicksburg Herald thus tells the whole
story "As to getting money out of the
Treasury, whatever we are justly entitled to
we want. We won't quarrel about the claims
of 50 called Southern loyalists but we will
quarrel with Mr.. Bragg and other Northern
men of both parties if we do Rot soon secure
some sort of an equalization of national aid. y
The versatile swearer, st. Martin, declares
that he was so enraged when General Butler
informed him, in the presence of the Potter
Comm,ttee, that he lied, that only his perfect
command of himself restrained him from kill
ing Butler on the spot. Is it 30 One would
think the average Louisiana witnesses would
get used to mild intiuidations of that sort
and take them with entire composure.
Mr. Hendricks has carefully seated himself
on the financial fence again. A reporter of
the Indianapolis Journal politely asked him
how he stood on the question, the other day,
and he replied that he occupied precisely the
same position as in the last Indiana campaign.
Everybody remembers about that. He made
quasi soft-money speeches all through the
canvass, and then on the eve of the election
came down with a slam on his hard money
foot, thus restoring the scientific accuracy Of
the lifelong straddle. That's where he is

Let ms Help One Another.

This Iittleseutence should be written
on every heart, and stamped on every
memory. 1t should be the golden rule
practiced not only in every household, ,
but throughout the world. By helping
one another we not only remove thorns
from the pathway, and anxiety from
the mind, but we feel q sense of pleas
ure in our own hearts, knowing we are
doing o duty to fellow creature. A
helping hand, or an encouraging word,
is no loss to US, yet 1t Is benefit to
others. Who has not felt the power OF
this little sentence? Who has not need.
ed the encouragement and aid ofa kind
friend? How soothing, when perplex-
ed with some task that Is mysterious
and burdensome, to feel gentle hand
on the shoulder, and to hear g kind
voice whispering: "Do not feel dis
couraged; see your trouble, let me
help you" What strength Is inspired,
what hope created, what sweet graft
tude is felt, and the great difficulty Is
dissolved as dew beneath the sunshine.
Yes, let US help one another by endeav'
oring to strengthen and encourage the
weak, and lifting the burden OF care
from the weary and Oppressed, that life
may glide smoothly on, and the fount
of bitterness yield sweet waters; and
He, whose willing hand Is ever ready
to aid US, will reward our humble en-
deavors, and every good deed will be
as 'sbread cast upon the waters, to re-
turn after many days." If not to Us, to
those we love.

Hope, Love and Patience.

Der wayward childhood would'st thou hold
firm rule,
And sun thee in the light of happy faces
Love, Hope and Patience, these must be thy
Graces.
And in thine OWE heart let them first keep
school.
For as old Atlas on his broad neck places
Heavens starry glove and there sustains it, so
Do these upbear the little world below
Of Observation-Disclosures, Love End Hope.
Methinks see them grouped in seemly show,
The straitened arms appraised, the palms
aslOpe,
And robes that touching, as adown they flow,
Distinctly blend, like snow embossed in snow.
b part them never! Ii Hope PROSTATE lie,
Love too will sink and die.
But love is subtle, and will proof derive
From her own life that Hope is yet alive,
And bending DER with soul transfusing eyes,
Woos back the fleeing spirit, and half
supplies:
Thus Love repays to Hope what Hope first
gave to Love.
Yet haply there will come weary day,
When overtaskd d at length
Both Love and Hope beneath the load give
way,
Then with statues smile, statues strength,
Stands the mute sister Patience, nothing 10th,
And, both supporting, does the work Of both.
Il Samuel Tayler Coleridge.

The Mysterious Hand.

Nevada has, or thinks sbe has, scien-
tific mystery, which has caused consid'
cradle eommotion in and about Mill
City. 1t consists of q perfectly formed
petrified hand, which belonged appar'
emily to q boy of fourteen or thereab0ut.
The hand is open, and the fingers are
slightly bent toward the palm, on
which the thumb rests. While the
palm, thumb, and fingers sre complete,
the back OF the hand seems to have
have been crushed or decompoeed be-
fore petrifying. 1t was discovered at
the sulpher beds near the city by
man shOveling crude sulphus into the
refining retort, and is presumed to have
been buried in the sulphur bank for
ages. The question is, What species Of
man had this particular hand? Scien'
lists who have examined 1t say 1t Is
not the hand of an Indian, an African,
a Caucasian, Malay, Mongolian, or
of any other recognised race. They
think 1t may lead to important results;
perhaps to the revelation of new or
der of human beings. For the present,
the petrification Is in private cabinet
where it has been seen and examined
by great many persons. It's soon to
be sent East, we believe for further and
sbler investigation. Should it prove
like what 1t Is thought to he,
it would be q ribbon in the cap OF Me-
vada. The relic may have been part
OF the boy who Is father to the man; or
Of the boy who stood on the burning
deck; or the youth who fired the Ep'
hesian dome; or who could not tell 9
lie; on who was to fortune, and TO
fame unknown. 1t may have belong
ed TO the first man, or the last man; or,
worst still, to no man at all.
