A Disgraceful Spectacle.

The Virginia reporter Of the TIMES
writes that "Piper's Opera House
has, for the last two nights, been the
scene of one of the most disgrace
full exhibitions that ever polluted the
gaze of public audience. l am
not given to maudlin sentimentality,
but never have I witnessed 80 filthy
and disgusting piece of nastiness as
this placed upon the boards Of Vir-
ginia City; never have seen women
sufficiently hardened to make so pub
lie display of the forms With which
they have been cursed, nor have l
ever heard Of city where such
actions would be tolerated. A matt
nee will be given this afternoon, but
I caution your lady readers to avoid
the performance as they would a
pestilence. Virginia C;ty's air will
require a publication after their
closing performance.

AN OUTRAGE on HUMANITY.
No Good Diggings Near Bodie-
Letter from an Ex.SiIyerite.

An ex-Silvsrite writes to the TIMES
from Bodic, under date Of May 20,
as follows:
Having seen an item In the Bodie
Morning News stating that 10000
men could find employment between
Aurora and Lake District, and know.
ing the same to be untrue, l wish
to haye it corrected through your
paper, for the good Of my fel.
10 winners. | know of hundreds of
men, both here and In Aurora, who
cannot get work, and | am one OF
them. There are no placer diggings
Of any account here. True, some
few men are digging placers in this
district, but they do it because they
cannot get work, and hardly succeed
In making grub.
The publication of such items as
that l speak of. Mr. Editor, when sc
many men in this district are out Of
work and without money, Is an out
rage on humanity.

THE GRASSHOYPERs.
The Carson and Mason Valleys In.
vaded by Them-Eagle and
WashOe Valleys Threatened.

The grasshoppers have began to
move in good earnest from their
breeding place in the foothills of the
Palmyra range, and are spreading
in all directions. The driver OF
Allman's Virginia stage reports that
they have made their appearance in
Mason Valley, in great numbers.
They annoy him very much, as he
drives through them, by jumping
against his leaders by dozens. This
makes the horses wild, and he Is
compelled to drive at q break. neck
pace to keep them on the road at
all, and to change them every three
or four trips.
Mr.. Lyons, the Superintendent of
the Woodwork mill, says that the
fat in the vicinity of the mill is alive
with grasshoppers, and that the
water in the mill-race is covered
with them. They first crossed the
river last Sunday, but have already
eaten every green thing between the
bridge at Dayton and the mill.
w. r. King, Superintendent Of the
Eureka mill, also reports grasshop-
pers In his vicinity. He says that
there is layer Of them two or three
inches thick from tho river to the
brow Of the hill near the mill.
| The pests seem TO be spreading up
the banks of the Carson at the rate
ola couple of miles q day. In few
days they will probably have in
vaded Eagle Valley. They will then
proceed to Washos Valley, thence
north to Surprise Valley and Oregon.
1t begins to look as If all Of Western
Nevada would suffer from their dep.
relations.

Laying Out An Orchard.

James Gould wants a plan for plant
ing trees so as to get them straight in
every direction. My plan is to stretch
a line on one side Of the plat Of ground
intended to be planted, where a row Of
trees will come, and stick stakes where
each tree is to stand in that row. Then
measure across the ends to where the
row will come on the other side, and
stretch the line and stick stakes as be
fore. Then stretch the line across by
the end stakes in each row, and manure,
and stick stakes a. in the side rows, and
tie strings ON the line at each stake
while stretched. Then stretch the line
by each pair Of stakes, 50 that the end
ties some exactly to the stakes, and
stick stakes at each tie along the line.
When all the ground has heen staked off,
if the line has been stretched so as to
make the rows at right angles, the stakes
will be in rows in all directions. To
plant. take board four feet two inches
long, and bore three-quarter inch holes,
one inch from each end, and a two-lnch
hole in the middle, having the center of
the holes i'll a plane. Saw out one side
Of the two inch holes SO that the body
of the tree will slip in and out. Place
the board so that the stake where the
tree is to be set, will be in the two-inch
hole, and stick pegs in the end holes.
Remove the board and dig the hole for
the tree. Then replace the board, and
set the tree 50 it stands up through the
two-inch e.-Correspondence Rural
