Bring lunch 10 stream or thicket;
Would oil my gun, or bait my hook.
And tisld for hours at cricket.
She'd mend my cap. or find my whip,
All, but boys hearts are stony,
i like her rather less than "Gyp,'
And far less than my pony.
She loved me then, though heaven know,
why,
Small wonder had she hated,
For scores of dolls she's had to cry,
Whom dccapItatcd.
| tore her froaks. pulled her hair.
Called red the sheen upon II;
Out fishing | would even dare
Catch tadpoles IN her bonnet.
Well. now | eSpiate my crime:
The Nemesis Of sables
Come after years-To day Old Time
On me has turned the tables.
I'm twenty five, she twenty now,
Dark eyed, pink checked. and bonny.
The curls are golden round her brow:
She smiles aud calls me Johnny"
OF yore used her Christian name
But now. though fate OF malice.
When she is 10y. my lips can't frame
Five letters tn make \ lice.
|, who could joke with her aud tease,
Stand silent now bsfore her;
Dumb, through the very wish to please,
speech!ess, shy adorer.
Or, II she turns 10 me To speak,
I'm dazzled by her graces;
The hot blood ru,hes to my cheek,
| babble commouplaces.
She's kind and eool-ah, Heaven knows
how
wish she bushed and faliered:
She likes me. and love her now:
Dear, dear. how things have altered!

Says the Elko Independent of Monday:
Through private letter from J. II. Bacon,
of Mountain City, we learn that Thomas
Jenkins, a resident of Cornucopia, while on
MS way from Bruneau, across the mountains
4 few days ago, lost his way during storm
and wandered about in the snow six days,
without food, blankets, or other protection
from the weather than the clothes he wore
Al the expiration of the time mentioned he
was found at what is known as the winter
ranch, forty mies from Mountain City, for
which place he had started. in pitiable con-
ditIoh, both feet.aud one hand being badly
frozen, besides being snow bind. He was
at once conveyed to Mountain City by w. T.
Ross, citizen of that place, where every
available means for the reliet of the sufferer
are being furnished. 1t has been ascertained
that Jenkins had at one time during his wan
behring's approached to within seven miles of
town, and then changed his course, moving
IN almost opposite direction.
That human being could pass six days
without food or shelter amid the SHOWS of
that mountainous region, and live, is almost
beyond belief The attempt to cross any of
those heavy mountain ranges in the winter
months, is always attended with danger, and
scarcely year passes without witnessing the

REMOVING THE INDIANS.
Says the Silver State of Wednesday:

Says the Silver State of Wednesday:
A stalwart trooper from Camp Harney,
who came here to escort recruits to that post
asserts as a fact that Company G, First Cav
airy, from Fort Boise, and Company c, of
the same regiment, Captain Wagner's from
Bidwell; are en- route to Winnemucca to
gather all the Piutes in this part of the
country at this place and take them to
Yakima, Washington Territory. He says the
order to remove the Indians was issued bv
the Secretary OF War on the 18th instant, and
will be carried into effect as soon as practi-
cable. Although the soldier positively as
serts that this Is fact, it is not at all prob
able that the War Department will attempt
anything so foolish. 1t would take all the
troops on the Pacific Coast to carry it into
effect, as the Indians will scatter upon the
first intimation that they are to be removed
Besides, it would be breach of faith on the
part of the military, who promised Naches
