PERCHERoN NoRMANs. We haven't picket
ap western Nevada exchange in weeks with
ont seeing something about the arrival of a
Percheron Norman. We read that Mr.. Smith
has one weighing 1860 pounds; Mr.. Brown
has just imported one of the weight of 1872
pounds, and Mr. Granger has one that knock
the beam at 1875 pounds. One is led to be,
lieve that no well regulated ranch Should be
without its Percheron Norman. We confess
to being trife muddlei on the subject. And
this reminds US of little joke, as our mar
| tyred President used to prelude his anecdotes
A recent arrival from the East was riding out
side on coach running from Sacramento to
Red Bluff, a few years ago, and he was amazed
at the large number of geese seen flying above
the plains along the Sacramento river. "What
an immense fieok of geese" he remarked to
| Smoky Bill, the driver. "Them's brants,"
grunted Bill. AS another and still another
| flock cleuded the heavens the passengers as
constituent increased each time he expressed
his wonder at the size of the flock land on each
occasion the somewhat disgHsted stage driver
from the other side of the mountains erupted
after this fashion: Say, Mr.. Driver, do all
the geese In this part of the country belong to
one man-are they all Brantsl" The apph
cation: Who the deuce is Er. Percheron?
And does he own all the Eormans in this part
Of the world2
SPLENDID PROMISED The
next public entertainment of the Reform Club,
which will probably be given tive weeks from
to- night in the Carson Opera House, promises
to be an artistic treat SO far, at least, as the
musical portion Of the programme is concern
ed This feature of the entertainment will be
under the direct supervision of Mr. A. F.
Hentschel, one of oar resident teachers and
thoroughly competent instructor in both the |
vocal and instrumental departments of the |
art. The musical part of the proposed enter |
tainment, and which on this occasion will be |
made the principal one, will embrace songs, |
duets, single and double auartets, quintets,
solos, duets. etc This ought to
constitute complete programme of itself but
the entertainment COMMITTEE will endeavsr to
make the bill still more attractive by giving
as. an afterpiece something (not yet agreed
upon) in dramatic way. And with such at
fractions, first class as they will be, the pop
ular prices will be adhered to: twenty Eve
cents for grown people and one dime for chill
dren. A full programme will appear in due
time.

WHAT THE LADIES SAY.

All the world knows, that when n
woman has once expressed n decided
opinion upon any subject, the matter
may be regarded rs settled, and the
status OF the article under considera-
ton Is defined beyond possibility of
dispute. Nor are these opinions Often
wrong. That marvellous shorthand
logic, which enables the female intel
lect TO rush 70 conclusion, as ii by
instinct, while the slower masculine
mind is still struggling with the pros
and cons, is generally TO be depended
on: and when n woman says 4 thing
Is good, the chances are thousand
to one that it deserves her encomium.
An apt illustration of this truth is
EHRlcns FASHION QUARTERLY, of
which the Fall number is before ia.
/ That over sixty thousand ladies
throughout the United States should
accept this magazine as their guide
to Fashion and shopping, is sufficient
evidence OF the estimation in which
1t is held by the fairer portion of the
community. The ladies look AT the
magazine, discern It's character ut n
glance, and hasten to subscribe: while
the male reader examines the pages
critically, scans the illustrations, and
reads the descriptions, and finally
concludes the female verdict to be
sound.
The Fall number opens with n
choice selection of literary articles, in
which entertainment is blended with
instruction lessons in dress-malling,
lace-maling, cooking, etc, being re-
lievcd with interesting stories and
sketches. Then follows a general re-
view OF Fashions for the Fall season,
and then come the reviews OF the diff
terent departments OF household econ
omy, commencing with that OF Fall
costumes. In every department a
clear description Of the changes of
fashion is given: new articles are
described ut length, and illustrated
i'll Il really artistic manner: and com
pletc price lists are given, to enable
the reader 90 compare the cost Of diff
ferent styles. 4 magnificent litho-
graphed Fashion Plate accompanies
the book, representing actual cos
tunes, nj moderate prices. The mag
azine, as Il whole, forms perfect
shopping guide, and should enable
lis readers to make their purchases
from any store in tho country, with
out fear OF being over charged, or
induced TO buy questionable goods.

INCREASE OF THE Wool TRADE.-The
London journal devoted TO the wool
TRADE says that there src few things
connected with the rDnrch OF civilization
during this century more remarkable
than the growth OF tho WOODEN industry
Of the void. This growth, which has
been chiefly since 1880, is due TO the
development Of the United States and
the growth OF the British colonies in a
great measure. In 1880 the total wool.
clip was 500 ,000.0 pounds. In 1873,
;bs iast year for which complete figures
can be aggregated. the clip was $780,
900 COO pounds. or more than five times
as much, end yielding 500 100000
pounds Of c!can-scoured hceces. Pre-
yious to 1880 seven-oi2hths OF the worlds
supply came from Europe. In 1873
Europe yielded 740.0O0,0 900 pounds, or
less than half, tEe United States 2J5.-
100000 pounds, or twcnty times IS

Tie sum ana substance Of ell that the
Republican party has been able TO prove
against the Democratic nominees in this
campaign is that Hancock is a soldier
and English a rich man. These are not
crimes yet, and 80 long as the soldier
70 brave and the rioh man honest, these
awful! charges need disturb nobody
