coLosEL STONES SPEECH.

II Colonel s,ous's speech ct the DEM
oorstio ratification meeting last Sstur-
day night was correctly reported Ia yes
tsrdsy's Enterprise. 1t shows that the
Colonel was very much mistaken In his
statement OF facts with reference to the
mines here. and the bullion tar laws. A
lawyer should be more careful OF his
assertions. II be had made such asser-
lions before Q Court the Judge would
have asked for his authority.
The facts are that the provisions Of
the Law Of 1866 with regard to taxing
the proceeds OF mines were to deduct
$40 per ton for milling; leaving seventy
Ave per cent. Of the balance to be taxed.
The State tax was only seventy cents on
800. Al the special session Of 1867
the Law was 90 amended that SIS per
ton was deducted for milling and . State
tax Of 81 rs on 500 levied on the bal
ancs. A proviso in the law applied to
counties where the tax roll showed .
property valuation OF $4,000. 900. that
such counties could levy on the proceeds
OF mines only twenty-five cents on 500
for county purposes. But Mr.. Sharon
had no more to do with the psssags Of
this Law than Colonel Stone. The mem.
bsrs Of the Legislature from Storey
county that year were elected In the in
t.rsst OF Mr.. De Long for United States
Senator.
The Law referred to remained on the
statute book and was observed until
1875. when IL was amended. But again,
Mr., Sharon had no more to do with this
change than had Colonel Stone. Can
Colonel Stone show where in any Of the
ysars he speaks Of the tai levy by the
County Commissions was 81 90 on
600 for county purposssr The less
the BONANZA speakers say about this
bullion tar business the better II will DO
for them. We propose to soon show up
the record OF the BONANZA arm with 70
gard to taxes on proceeds Of mines. The
object In sn~dsavoring to elect . Lesisls-
tire 10 their interest will. II successful.
develop itself when . bill comes before
the Legislature to relieve the BONANZA
men from the tax suits nov pending in
the courts. The people have bad some
experience with BONANZA legislation and
tax suits, and want the bonanza arm 10

are compelled to pay theirs.

Kindness to Young Animals.

The tiWe spent in petting yoLng
animals is not thrown away, 1t! is
easier to render animals gentle while
they are young than after they are
mature. Ifa colt is caressed from the
time it is dropped till it is three
years old it will require no breaking
in the sense the word is generally
used. 1t will do the bidding Of its
master as soon as it, comprehends its
meaning. Most animals are fractiOus,
irritable and contrary from fear. II
used with uniform kindness from the
time they are at all age to understand
they will be obcdient. Lambs should
be petted while they are following
their dams SO that they will become
attached to the persons in charge of
them when they come into the pas
treat sheep and lambs with Kindness
should not be entrusted with them.s
Calves intended for dairy COWS
should receive special attention A
calf handled rightly will grow up to
be o ll-behaved cow. If it receives
blows instead of soft words it will
exhibit fear of its master and will
continue to be in fear of him when it
is OF an age to give milk. 1t will
tremble when approached and will
begin to kick as soon as an attempt is
made to draw the milk from the ud-
der. During the first season it is
lnilked it will be of very little value,
The milk it gives will hardly pay for,
the trouble of obtaining it. Prnfes-
sional dairymen appreciate the vaiiic
of kindness to calves and COWS. They
will not tolerate the presence of per-
sons who are fretful or unkind to
them. They generally want to know
what sort of bringing up a cow has
had before they conclude to purchase.

Money In Mules.

Raising mules for sale is one of the
most profitable, if indeed, it is not the
most profitable branch OF stock breed
ing. A mule is u very poor specimen
that will not sell for 1925 when it is
three years of age, while twice that
sum is often paid for an active animal
of large size. First-class mules are
only raised from good mares. Many
farmers think that any old, debilitat-
? ed mare is suitable to raise mules
from. But in this they are mistaken.
s A good dam Us well good sire is g
quired, Superior mules of large size
are in constant demand at high prices.
They are wanted not only on farms
but in large towns where there is
heavy teaming to do. They endure
dust, smoke, and heat much better
than horses. At present there is
foreign demand for mules that is like
ly to increase. Mules stand sea
VOYAGE much better than horses.
Mule colts are much easier to raise
than horse colts. They can be wean-
ell much earlier, and with less trouble.
1t is difficult to work q mare that has
q horse colt, as it will want to suck
every few hours, but mule colt will
abstain from sucking five or six hours
without making trouble. A mule of
any age is less dainty about its food
than horse, 1t will make a good
meal OH fodder that will he rejected
by any domestic animal except goat.
1t has surprising endurance and vi
tality. Ii well fed it will get along
very comfortably with no shelter ex-
cept during severe storms. The cost
OF raising /. mule is 30 per cent less
than that oil raising a horse, and it will
ordinarily bring more money. Some
OF the most prosperous sections OF the
country are those in which raising
mules is o leading business among
farmers.

Regularity and constancy i'll the
pursuit of exercise are important, says
the Lancet, if perfect health is eX-
pected to result from its employment.
1t is far better for men to lead alto
gether sedentary life than to be ir-
regularly active. This caution is the
more needed since the transition from
sedentary habits to arduous and ex-
hausting physical labor is of frequent
occurrence Again, the transition from
active habits 10 sedentary pursuits is
generally accompanied by marked
disturbance of health, since organs
reused to full activity by the stimu-
lus exercise gives to them are liable
to be functionally deranged when that
stimulus is withdrawn. This, per-
haps, would not be SO frequently OBJ
served, if instead of relapsing immc-
diately, as is frequently the case, into
idle habits as far as exercise is con-
cerned, an attempt was made to en-
gage regularly, for however short
time, in some pursuit which would
insure brisk muscular movement, SO
that the health acquired by exercise
during the vacation should not be
lost; and, moreover, that the body
when the next holiday period comes
round should be found in fair condi-
ton to undertake the increased phys
ical strain thrown upon 1t.

An Esthetic Tea.

London World.
Let it not be lightly supposed that
an esthetic tea merely means a few
friends, little warm water, and some
teacups. 1t is far more sacred affair
"a kind of agape or love-feast. It is
given by the elect to the initiated, and
one discordant element would break
the magic circle. The rooms are al
ways shaded. Sweet scents, also, must
pervade the air, for smell is, the sense
specially cultivated by estheticism,
the influence of odors on the nervous
system being a branch of physiology
highly entertaining to those who have
pursued it. Then, again, the tones
must be low, subducd, and sad harsh
loud laughter aud buoyant spirits are
vulgar. A kind Of suffering nielan-
choly hangs over the guests, as If they
were rather assembled to mourn the
dead than rejoice over the living.
Music, of course, is permitted, but 1t
must be of the modern order-passlon-

He who suffers keenly has great Ca
pacity for enjoyment. There is no
keen sense of delight except to one
who has keen sense of sorrow. Tho
most appreciative persons are by lio
means persons of greatest equanimity.
To be able to feel intensely III one di-
rection, q person must be able to feel
with like intensity in the opposite di-
rection, whether he wants to or not.
He who is always cheerful is never
person of very strong feeling or ex-
ceeding refinement and sensitiveness.
He of all others understands least the
cost of a fine and high-strung nature.
Few indeed do understand it; and
perhaps it is we'll that they do not,

A Little Romance in the Family.

A man in Toledo, with wife and
three children, became enamOrcd OF
all intriguing woman and procured a
divorce in an obscure Indiana town.
He did not say word about it at
home. One day his oldest daughter
received Il parcel of patterns from q
lady in indianapolis. 1t was an old
copy of u country newspaper. An
advertisement attracted her attention.
1t was All application for a divorce for
her father from her mother. The
young lady decided to visit her friend
in Indianapolis and to make an excur-
sion to the county where the divorce
had been granted. She returned with
ample evidence that her mother was
living with divorced man. She
showed her father copy of the ad-
vertisement, and told him she found
out all about him. He walked the
floor for minute, and then turned to
his daughter. 81 have been very

How q Shop Clerk Was Bought by an
Heires6

An ingenious, if not truthful, cor
respondent, writing from Kingston, N.
Y, says: A small social circle in
Saugerties is now ianxiously awaiting
Developments in q romantic affair that
has come to light within the past few
days, in which voting dry y-goOds
clerk In Saugerties and 4 Columbia
county girl play the leading parts.
The names of the parties arc suppress
ed, but the affair is Of such an Unusual
character that it becomes y matter of
public comment The young clerk
was .busily engaged in cIeanlng the M
terror of front show window, when
a. fashionably dressed and come1y
young woman entered the store and
asked the proprietor, In vivacious
manner, what he would take for that
article in the window. nodding sig
nificantly toward the young man.
The proprietor laughingly replied
that he would sell him for dish Of
ice cream, The young woman said
"Very well will take him." and de-
parted, returning a little later in the
day with female friend, when she
invited the proprietor out to q cream
saloon to bind the bargain. The pro-
prietor entered heartily into the spirit
of the joke, as he looked upon it, and
went with her. On his return to the
shop the young woman accompanied
him, and said, as she started to leave:
"I am going home on Monday noon:
SO have that article ready for me, as
shall certainly call for it." The clerk
thereupon demurred, and said the
bargain would not be binding unless
he had q dish of cream as well, at
which the young lady said Every
we'll, you also shall have tho cream"
aud left, returning i'll few minutes
with dish of cream in her haLd.
The young man devoured the cream
and enjoyed social chat with his
purchaser, and becoming quite inter-
ested in her, made up his mind to
stick. On Monday afternoon the
young woman, true to her promise,
drove up ina hack to the shop on
Main street, aud out stalked her pur-
chase, clad in q new linen duster and
store clothes, and witha hand bag
anu sun umbrella in hand. The hack
drove of, amid the laughter and best
wishes of the fellow-clerks of the
young man, and the congratulations
of the proprietor to the young woman
WHO warranted the young man to
wear well and hold his, color, and that
he would never fade. The party took
the $50 train up the river, aud on
Monday evening the merchant re-
ceived d dispatch from the young wo-
man stating that she had arrived at
home safely with her purchase. The
girl is worth about $25,OOO in her own
name, and is about 20 years old. The
young man is fine-looking, has neat 4
little bank account of his own, and all
say that the young woman might "go
further and fare worse" The sequel

sort should have q sequel, is rather

An old gentleman living q short
distance out of Portland, Me-, had on
mechanism. One was a steam bark
entine and one steam bark, built on
a scale of one-eighth of an inch to
the foot. They were framed, planked
and bolted exactly like largo ship.
Each plank was bolted and riveted
with bolts made from q pin, hammer
ed out to about the size Of O horse
hair. They had wooden blocks, rope
strapped, the & rigging : was was + twisted .a'tsi
rope, and everything about them was
made in the same style. The gentle
man who made them said he had ia
ken four hundred and sixty-four
working days to complete them,
