An Unnatural Mother.

Nursing children has always been a sweet
duty to true mothers, and a tedious in
cumbrance to unnatural women. Not long
since, Mary Stewart, keeper of a house of
ill-fame in Steubenville, Ohio, gave birth
10 a child. Its father, like a man, wished
II well provided for, and offered to pay all
expenses. The mother refused to let il
suckle from her breasts, and fed IL on old
COWS milk until it sickened. The father
begged of her to nurse ii. A physician
was sent in, who stated that if the little
thing could not have its mothers milk il
would die, when the heartless heifer, who
was it's mother, listening to the pleading
wall Of the furnishing babe, pushed 1t
away, declaring that she would not let it
pull her out Of shape. The child suffered
Tor q week, its nurse trying to keep 1t alive,
and then died.
We know this is only one case out Of
thousands OF such unnatural outrages. still
we mention it on account of the pathetic,
impassioned appeal which Brick pomeroy
appends to IL in his paper, the Great West:
MARY Stewards God lives, the time
will come when you will wall as did the
innocent babe you thrust from you, when
there will not be even one human being to
listen to or care for your suffering cries,
and when the hogs will root into the fro
gen bosom that Is your present boast.
The child is better off with the nurses and
lives in the spirit world than it ever could
be with you, as the milk 1t would have is
so laden with wolfshness that q life now
saved to a happy. heavenly hereafter would
have been laden with sin and dragged
down to despair"

Drunkenness the Cause Of 1t.

Theophilus Jones married the daughter
of his employer at Clifton, Ohio, twenty
years ago. He was then an ambitious,
spirited and moral young man. For awhile
he realized expectation in prospecting bust
ness and becoming a representative man in
the place: but latterly he lapsed into
drunkenness, robbed his father-in-law and
abused his wife. She obtained a divorce,
and lived by herself with her children,
while he became an outcast. One day he
presented himself at her house, ragged and
hungry. and begged to be taken in. She
refused to see him, and sent out her son to
tell him that he must go away or she would
set a dog on him. The boy delivered the
message and returned to the dinner table,
where the family were eating a hearty
meal. Jones sat down on the porch and
wrote following to his wife , 81 have re-
Trained from committing suicide as long as
l could. I have done everything to obtain
employment, but / have failed. l have no
money and am in a starving condition. l
have now made up my mind to die. When
this reaches you / will be in another world.
Take care of my dear children God bless
you. Try and teach them to forget any
faults l had, and when / am gone try and
forgive all the wrongs / have done you.
May God bless you" Then he fred a bull
let through his heart.

Some Mention of the Richmond and
Ruby.Dunderberg.

The London Mining Journal Of July Sd
is at hand. 1t contains the following ref
erence to Eureka mines:
CONSOLIDATED.
The usual telegram from the mines at
Eureka states that the weeks run was
$40, 900, from LIPS tons of ore. During
the week the refinery produced dore bars
to the value Of S55,O0O. The manager
June 81 reports that a rise has been started
in back Of the 200 north, near the cave he
spoke Of in his last; it was up II feet on
a seam Of good ore. The 400 north from
No. IL chamber has been extended 81 feet
in favorable ground. In the winze below
the 700 we have begun to stope the ore;
the vein is from three to five feet wide Of
good quality ore. A drift has been started
from the winze connecting the 600 and 300
levels about 80 feet below the 600, where
there are very favorable indications for ore.
The 900 north crosscut has been extended
Is feet in favorable ground for ore. All
the chambers are looking well, especially
No. Is, which late developments have
shown to be an immense ore body, the ex-
tent Of which we cannot yet see.
RuBY-DUNDERBERG.
The force at the mine has been increased,
and the output has thus been increased to
219 tons of high-grade ore. This is said
to be the best retarn yet advised. The
ore smelted during the week realized about
81, 900, and as the monthly expenses aver
age S. 900 there is a good profit. A remit
lance has been received which it is believed
will be continued monthly. The mines in
the vicinity of the Ruby and Richmond
are attracting considerable attention, and
profitable developments are being made in
several Of them.

Union ConsoIidated Yield.

The north end of the Comstock is not
so barren as is generally believed. The
annual statement of the Union Consoli-
dated is just made public. 1t shows that
during the past year, and mp to June 80.
1880, the mine has produced 80 ,019 tons Of
ore, all Of which has been milled, and has
yielded the sun Of 81 ia, S03. AS, or S39.13
per ton, that being 81 per cent. Of the as
say value, no allowance being made for
moisture. The value of the gold in the
bullion was $500, 465 SO, and Of the silver,
S60S, 337. SO. This ore was all taken from
the ore body lying on the northern bound
airy, which was first discovered in the
Sierra Nevada incline, II ,7s1 tons being
extracted from the 1900 level and 10, 2ss
tons from the 2,400 level.

THE NEVADA sENATORsHIP.
A Strong Endorsements of General
Il. L.. COnnOr.

The Salt Lake Tribune has the following
regarding the Senatorship Of Nevada, and
the claims Of General Conner should our
next Legislature be Republican "a
writer in the San Francisco Globe men,
tions as the probable Republican candi-
dates for United States Senator in Nevada,
Hon. f. A. Tritle and General P. E. Con-
nor. As this is the first mention we have
seen in print of General Connor's name in
that connection, it is only fair for the Tri-
bune to say to the people of Nevada that
here, where General Conner lived so long
and was SO sorely tried, his election to a
high office by the will of the bright people
Of our nearest neighbor, would be hailed
with unusual satisfaction by all except the
people Of the Mormon Church. III work
that General Conner performed here can
never be appreciated by those unfamiliar
with the condition OF affairs here at the
time, and the change which has been eff
fected since, which change is more due to
General Conner than to any other man.
When Brigham Young was in full intellect
ual strength and u%ndisputed power when
the luminosity Of the Church towards Gen.
tiles was virulent and had never been
checked when it was accounted o crime to
open a mine in the Territory, and when
open opposition to the ruling power here
meant ostracism and often death General
Conner with q few troops came here, man
aged to secure the position known since as
Camp Douglas /; started a newspaper 10
Gated and opened the first mine, and with
l;a 1.f, - l.a ban1 and ~ q nraaf noon iarv
loss, persisted until the majesty of the flag
under which he moved asserted itself and
the beginning of the redemption of the
Territory was accomplished. More than
that, forty years ago General Conner
Joined the army, and wherever his country
had a foe there General Common was found
facing it. AS an Indian fighter he has
never been equalled except by Crook. At
one blow he destroyed the Indians who
were devastating Idaho, and his appear
ance in an Indian war has always been a
signal of victory. The papers which he
sent from here to the department COM
mander give unmistakable evidences Of his
sagacity and foresightedness. His admin
istrative ability has always been a theme of
approving comment. To improve his
shattered fortunes some years since he re-
tired from the army and has since devoted
himself to mining. He has one of the
finest properties in Utah, and is swiftly
putting it in the best condition, so far as
hosting and reduction works are con-
cerned, of n mine in the Territory with
perhaps one exception. At the same time
at his home in Eureka he is driving for
ward a work intended to open a dozen great
mines at a profound depth, and his mind
seems as restless and vigilant as it was
twenty years ago. This seems to be a sol
der year. In General Conner Neveda has
an opportunity to honor as true a soldier
as ever wore his %country's uniform"

NYE COUNTY ITEMS.
Notes of Interest from n Belmont

We are Of the opinion that at the next
meeting of the Republican County Central
Committee Of Nye, the members might as
well elect delegates to the next State Con-
vention. There is hardly time to hold
primaries to elect delegates to the County
C~onventian, whose only business would be
to elect men to represent Nye County on
the 18th proximo. We understand that in
other counties of this State this rule will
be adopted, thereby avoiding the trouble
and expense Of holding two county conven-
tions before fall.

A Sudden Death.

The Virginia Enterprise of the 18th says:
Mrs. Evans-the Mrs. Evans who some
time since obtained a divorce from her hus-
band, and in regard to the custody OF
whose little girl SO much has recently been
said in the courts-was found dead in bed
in her room on South E street. 1t was
thought from the fact that froth was issu-
ing from the mouth of deceased that she
had been poisoned or had committed sui
eide. Coroner Brodek last evening held
an autopsy and inquest, when it was found
that death was caused by congestion OF the
brain and Inflammation Of the lungs. No
indications of poison we're found. The
verdict was in accordance with the facts
disclosed.

the following: 1.-THE other day Mr.. Rog-

up and nursing several children. The Emu
merator supposed that the woman had

band died. The woman answered ~
amt married; amt got no husband; never
had one and never want one. CAM women

NEXT to loving her husband, nothing so
crowns a woman's life with honor as the
devotion Of a son to her. We never knew
a boy to turn out badly who began by
falling in love with his mother. Any man
may fall in love with a fresh-faced girl,
and the man who is gallant to the girl may
cruelty neglect the poor and weary wife.
But the big boy who is a lover OF his
mother at middle age is a rue knight, who
will love his mother as much in the sere-
leaf autumn as he did in the daisied
spring. There is nothing so beautifully
ohivalrous as the love of a big boy for his
mother. Boys, think of this.
