TINE PIUTE WAR DANCE

scattering.
A great many whites visited the Ia
dian camp ON the west side of the river
Saturday evening to see the war dance.
Naches and Buena Vista John were the
business managers of the affair and they
charged two-hts" for admission. As
the show was held ON the river bottom
doubtless great many boys, who at
tended, evaded the door-keepers, who
were stationed on the road from the
bridge to the camp Some twenty odd
naked savages, who, with one excep-
ton, came from Churchill county, par
ticipated in the dance. Their bodies
were painted in the highest style of Pr
ute art, and as they carried no weapons,
the dance was rather tame affair, only
few of the Indians going through the
motions of taking aim at, and lodging
the missiles OF imaginary foes. All the
warriors joined in the dance, which was
kept up without cessation for over three
hours, after which the fandango was
declared closed. Yesterday morning
the camp was almost deserted the
several hundred Indians having scat
tered during the night in all directions,
those who reside here going to their old
wickiups and the others leaving for diff
ferent parts of the country. Tire Piutes
and Shoshones settled their difficulties
amicably and the threatened war be-
tween the tribes is averted.

The IIsi sm5oidt Dry.

Henry j. Pratt, of Clover valley,
who was in town yesterday, informs us
that the Humboldt river is dry at Iron
Point and the bed of the stream can be
crossed by anybody dry shod. This is
remarkable, considering that there is
considerable water In the stream
at this place. The water sinks in the
bed OF the stream and runs underground
for several hundred yards.

STRANGERS To vOU WHEN YOU'RE
BROKE.

The following has been sent us for publication
by Charles Wesley Hymer, now confined in the
County Jail for the alleged murder of 7. X.
West at Paradise:
When your pockets all clink with the jingle of
gold,
And your costume is one of the best,
Your friends will flock round you, like sheep
in the foEl,
Till their company has proved pest;
But should grim misfortune come suddenly
on,
Bear in mind what say, it's no joke,
You'll find that the friends who have bled you
50 long
Are strangers to you when you're broke.
There's many man who has squandered his
gold
On people he thought were his friends;
Though he imagined himself he had treasures
untold;
They have soon dwindled down into tens;
"ris then he WAL wish for the days past and
gone,
For he's down like wheel without spoke;
Should he ask an old friend to help him
along,
He's stranger to him when he's broke
Now, mind what say, for you'll find | am
right,
Though not every case, to be sure
And when you are rich, and your stars shining
bright,
just open your purse to the poor;
But beware of all those who round you will
flock,
And give you the hest Of Joke;
When they praise you up highly in them take
stock
They be strangers to you when your broke

SEDAN Mill, PARADISE
VALLEY, August %.


VALLEY, August %.
EDITOR SILVER SrATE:-In your issue
of the Dist instant, communication
from the San Francisco Exchange,
signed j.. T. Boyd, is not founded on
facts. He Boyd knows no more
about mine or mill than Pute In
dian. The facts are these: The Mount
Rose Company are taking out ore in
small quantities, but had not had any
mille,l, though hope they will soon.
The Rather ore, third claas, assayed
SJ4 81 per ton. Seven tons of first
class ore that j. T. 3. says will assay
from 81, 256 to 5000 per ton can be
brought on the damp for $1,000. L
hope when the Paradise mill begins TO
reduce ore and ship bullion it will
make times livelier, but it will take diff
ferent men from j. L. b. to make a
change for the better.
Again a correspondent, who signs
himself II, in the Paradise Reporter,
SAYS he mounted blackboard and made
a trip to the Mount Rose mine; found
eight men at work, some of whom were
sorting good milling ore. How does H
know it to be good milling ores Does
he carry mill in his pocket and test
the ores at the several mines he visits?
H says he found four men at work at
the Big Nick mine. There is no work
being done at the mine, but if there
were plenty of correspondents like II
We might all be happy. CHING Foo.

The Seminal says the trial, of the
coal burners, charged with riot aud con-
spiracy, occupied the attention of Justice
Cromerts Court at Eureka, all day Sat
urday, aud an evening session was also
held. The Italians manifested lively
interest in the fate of their countrymen,
and patiently stood the entire day
listening to the evidence. The exami-
nation was simply rehash of events
that have already been noticed, and
bore more heavily on Strozzi than any
other individual 1t was proven that
he was the chief imstigator OF the Alpha
troubles, and aided personally in dump
ing coal from wagons after they had
been loaded.
Nothing important was developed at
the session of the Court held last even-
ing. But one witness was examined,
when and adjournment was had until
O'Clock Sunday afternoon.
1t was currently reported on the
streets last night that the officers Of the
Coal Burners Association had sent pos
tive instructions to the different locali-
ties to withdraw all further objections
to the loading of coal.

cannot exhaust its nutriment as a few
crops do, in the case of stout dress
ing of barnyard manure.
Those loads of muck are loads of
crop makers that the toll and force
of nature, the sun, the rains, the
breezes and the upland wash and
wastes, have piled up and tempered
ahead for your use. You have but
to yield to their stored-np forces
your toll and wit, to win their pow
erful help. Each Of those 1000 cubic
yards equals in bulk horse cart, top
board load, well rounded up. If that
yard, or load, is worth but thirty
cents, you have on every acre of such
land, $3.50 worth of enrichment
that is a low down figure. You could
not shovel and dump and cart load
for that, except on a mighty short
|. dray. But take off $3.50 for the
changes and chances of the seasons;
for the cost Of land, Of drainage and
culture; for occasionally quickening
and rousing its sluggishness with
those salts that so rouse up vegeta-
ton in its first start. Then each
acre Of that swamp land so endowed,
and redeemed from water log, is to
you as good as, yes, far better than,
$500 in bank. It's a savings bank
right at home; the fund therein is
better than government bonds, or
bank stocks or bond and mortgage
It's as solid and unfeeting as the
earth. No panics or hard times or
any of the perils and chances Of
trade can shake its solid worth, or
cut down its dividends. It's as safe
as that scriptuyal house, founded on
the solid rock.
Year by year that $500 in such a
bank, will pay to your toll and care,
clear net dividends of six per cent.
Besides, it will pay you for planting,
reaping and housing, and for all
needtul enrichment. This, doubt
less, reads to many besides that poor
farms owner, like romance, or some
book-farmer's long bow tale. From
his boyhood he has looked out on
that swamp land at his door,. and
thought it worthless except for the
home and nesting Of the blackbirds,
and few early bites Of spring grass.
But all l here lay down is bottom
truth Let him who can, gainsay the
figures. I am far within the real
tootings of results from such swamp
land improvement. There is no
guess or fancy about it. I know
whereof I speak. have seen the
right to a good deal stronger figures
proved under no likeler chance than
is before every owner OF a big
swamp.
