1t has reached the ears of the editor
of this paper that DR.. Fuqua denies
having denounced the Democratic
party in his speech at cambridge.

has not denied the charge. - n

Within five miles of Lovelocks sta
tion on the Central Pacific are three
old forts which were doubtless thrown
up az q protection against Indians by
the pioneers of California in the early
days of the gold excitement. One of
them is a good five miles south of the
road and the others about four. The
smallest and apparently the Oldest bears
evidence of very severe usage. The
whole space inside the walls is covered
with wagon irons of every kind. Hub
rings, thimbles, tongue straps, ETC., and
bushels of small scraps could be gather
ed up. Old settlers say that they car
ried off tires, axles, etc., enough for
twenty wagons large and small, Many
gun barrels have also been picked up
in the neighborhood. P. A. Moses has
used dozen sr SO to hang harness on
in his stable. Who can solve the mys-
terry of this silent old fort2 But for the
presence Of the old guns, one would say
that fire had got the start of some
corralled train and burned their wag,
ons, but in that case their guns at least
would have been saved. In hostile
country every man would save his chill
dren and weapons together.--Reno Ga

THE SMALLEST OF RABIES.

Mrs. George Fromm, of No. 43S
West Twenty fourth street, New York,
is the happy mother of fully develop
ed boy baby weighing eleven ounces
and thlee quarters. The head of the
child, although smaller than small
apple, is covered with an extraordinary
growth of light brown hair. The fea-
lures are regular, the eyes bright and
clear, and the skin is fine and delicate.
The arms are the thickness of ordinary
little fngers,and the fingers are the size
Of extra large pencil leads. The nails,
although not much bigger than good
sized pinhead, are perfectly formed. An
ordinary luncheon basket is an ample
cradle for the babe. His height at
birth was five inches, and breadth
across the shoulders 2l. Mrs. Fromm
is a pleasant-faced German woman,
five feet seven inches in height, weigh
ing l35 pounds. George Fromm, the
father, weighs l75 pounds. He is an
ex-car driver on the Third Avenue
Road, and out of work. They have
been married eleven years and have
had five other children, all of ordinary
height and weight. Physicians and
others who have examined the tiny ba
by, already named George, say that he
is considerably smaller than either O
the midgets at the time of birth, and
that if he lives he will take the palm al
the smallest man in the world

WANTED RAIN.

The colored people of Dorsey county,
Ark, prayed very earnestly for rain.
The leading church engaged in this la
Dor organized sort Of "prayer-bee" and
sent over into an adjoining county and
borrowed few members, agreeing to
pay heavy interest in hymn-books.
Even this failed but the cow of emer-
gency was taken by the horns when the
preacher issued the following proclama-
tion: "We's bound for to hab enough
members in dis church to meet de occa-
sion, and I hereby sets my hand and
seal to de artikel what says, call col
lured persons, respectable or otherwise
in dis county and all de counties jinin

sought for. When such means cannot

reasoned with for such an uncalled-for
