Generals little rooms, on the northwest cor
ner of the building, where it will be seen by
about half as many of our own people and
visitors from abroad as now visit the Museum.
The place to which this majority of three have
relegated the collection of specimens is a
narrow room, i'll contrived for the purposes
of meteorological exhibition, and affords
barely mathematical room for the reception
of the cabinet cases. In short, the beauty
and utility of the Museum is destroyed by
the change that has been ordered by the
Powers Does any one doubt what the voice
of the people of the State would be on this
question, involving ON the one hand, sscri-
flee of convenience on the part of few per-
sons, and on the other, the mutilation of a
highly valuable and the most ornamental fea-
this article feels sure that they would demand
a vital consideration as a warrant for thus
tampering with what is an exponent in form
of scientific beauty of the cares and labors of
the masses. They might ask Mr.. Secretary
Babcock why he did not make some sacrifice
to thrir feelings and interests Why he did
not settle the trouble by moving into the little
rooms of the Attorney Generals These rooms
arc too small for him, but they are large
enough for the State Museum !
1t doesn't matter who wrote this article, or
who may write more in order to let the peo-
pie know how their interests are treated. it
is sufficient that the Superintendent of Pub
lie Instruction, who is responsible for the
proper of the States specimens, will see
that nothing is done to mar their beauty or
impair their value, unless he is overpowered
and coerced.

THE Tuscarora Times Rerie,c says: Dave
Appleton showed us yesterday some more
specimens from the same strata of decomposed
testaceous matter. They were evidently Dor
tons of the shells of common sea muscles
that abound on the California coast, and bear
no resemblance whatever to the shell of the
ordinary fresh water clam, such are found
in the OWyhee. They were found in the same
strata about ten feet distant from the place
where the oyster shells were taken. AS it is
hardly probable that the aborigines had ex-
press facilities for bringing such luxuries as
shell fish from the present tide water margin,
we are at loss to account for their presence
so far in the interior, and at such hight
above the level of their native element. When
Professor Stewart arrives here we shall en-
deavor to induce him to visit this mountain
oyster bed and give us his opinion regarding
its origin.

were left to bleach ON the desert They warmed
toward the Parishes and the Morrsites they

ATTEMPTED SUICIDE.-Says the Eureka
Leadlr of Monday; Yesterday afternoon,
Miss Belle Wilder. whose name is a familiar
one to old Nevadans, made desperate at
tempt to close her earthly career, using choral
hydrate as means to that end She swal-
lowed an immense dose. some go grains,
which at once plunged her into profound
stupor Dr. Chambhn was called to her as
sstance, and at once applied remedial agen-
cies, including the use of the stomach pump.
1t was hard battle, and late last evening it
seemed as if there was no hope; but this
afternoon she was better, and it is possible
she may recover. This is the second attempt
to commit suicide that she has made within
the past year.

TIE Elko Independent relates the following
clined to remark, Served him right" A
man named Alec Winning while violating the
law by killing fish with giant powder, in a
stream near Columbia, had one of his hands
blown off on Thursday He was mutilating
the fish in Bull Run Creek, and had lighted
the fuse of a cartridge, which, as he thought,
had failed, and while in the act of striking a
match to reiight it, holding the explosive in
his right hand, the fuse, which Was still on
fire, carried to the cap, and the cartridge
burst, blowing the hand into fragments, The
injured man was at once conveyed to Cornu
copia by H. c. Ireland, where further ampn-
tation was performed by DR.. Drake of that
place.

CONCEALED WEAPONS.

Concealed pistols carried by able
bodied men as q protection to their
persons and property, are not so
much a protection after all. A man
is more likely to be killed who wears
a pistol than one who abstains, for
one invites death, and the other re-
pels it by known weakness. Cox
was in no bodily harm until he arm
ed himself to kill Aston, then he
invited harm aud brought bodily
harm, incarceration of person, loss OF
liberty, and finally will lose his prop
erty in his legal defense, and it may
be that he will Lore his life at the
end of the haugman's rope. A sad
result to himself, to say nothing oil
the noble life he blotted out in blood,
and the snrrow and woe he sent to
desolate hearts. The necessity oil
carrying a pistol for protection il
questionable, where righteous and
efficient officers are alert aud vigi>
LIANT. AS Judge Lester truly says
'pistoIs were not made to hunt with
but evidently to kill somebody with
When the practice becomes more
disreputable and punishment swfter,
then society will enjoy greater pro
lection and fewer homicides will be
committed.
If you have been 10 the hAb
it of carrying pistol, 60 and lay it
