Morning appeal. [volume] (Carson City, Nev.) 1877-1906, 1879-08-10

which the Club was also addressed by the
President General t. D. Edwards. 1t is really
pleasing to note that the great interest which
was at first manifested in this phllanthroplc
move continues. Much good has already
been accomplished by this praisewor:hy in
stitution, and still it goes on. Each member
deems it his or her duty to raise the unfor
tunate one who has fallen by the roadside
from the effects of strong drink, and that
duty is faithfully carried ont. Long may the
Temperance Reform Club continue to pros
per in their landable endeavors.
Come TO QUARTER HER.-It will be re-
membered that few weeks ago johnson
Sides, the Franktown Piute, called on the
| Governor for advice as to what course to pur-
sue to get back an old aunt of his who ran
away to California with another Plute, desert
ing her aged husband and children. Well,
| johnson told the APPEAL yesterday, Chat the
| recreant aunt has been returned to Nevada
several days ago by two 3oung Plutes, who
were secretly sent out in search of her. The
fax, Cal, enjoying rather late day honey
| moon She returned to her friends very reluct-
antly, in fact the young bucks were compelled
| to use physical force, as she would not be IN
| fuenced by moral suasion. Sides aunt Is
now at a point near Pyramid Lake, and she
will be tried by number of her tribe for
| infdeity, which is looked upon the most
serious of crimes by the Piutes, They can
forgive anything but infidelity on the part OF
IA mahala Sides thinks that her conviction
be of the most barbaric nature. The left
arm and leg will be tied to one horse, and the
right leg and arm to another, then the animals
will be driven in different directions, tearing
the woman in two. We do not know that
similar case has ever occurred in this State ;;
but there is no doubt that if this punishment
is carried out it will bring terror to the hearts
# the dusky Piute maidens and will have the
effect of keeping them well within the mat
rmonial traces.
A POOR, intoxicated individual .astranger,
who had Just been drinking enough to feel
exceedingly sensitive, was at the Reform
Club rooms last evening, and while one OF the
ladies was reading piece, he began biuber
ing and cried out loud that he loved his
mother No one took any exceptions to his
loving his mother, but there was decided
unwillingness to permit him to disturb the
entertainment, so he was gently requested to
step outside for little fresh air, which he
did without a murmur.
