Our city marshal, Timothy Deasy,
is performing the duties Of his office
to the general satisfaction, We believe,
Of every right minded citizen in our
community. Of course the fellow
who gets pulled will naturally feel a
little sore about If, but then he ought
to know, it he does not, that any vio-
lation of 4 city ordinance will subject
him to arrest, followed by either fine
or detention in the calaboose, or
both. 1t is pretty generally under
stood in Irwin now, that the marshal
intends to do his whole duty without
fear or favor, regardless of the person
who may be the offender.

At the Yellow Jacket Mine on the
Comstock, ,,when..a about to commence
the attack on the water of the lower
levels, Superintendent Taylor caused
a lift-pump to be made for use in the
main shaft. For the barrel of the
pump he took a section of ordinary
14-inch pump column, and fitted into
it the necessary bucket and valves.
Although, owing to the altitude a
lift-pumpsswill.. only raise water effec
lively to hight OF about 40 feet, yet
this was found to do excellent work
as,,far as it would work at all. The
only disanvantage was the trouble of
the frequent coverings required. Mr..

There is good deal Of this American
swell. Che Of his peculmrihes is that as
soon as he gets here he begins to cut every
thing American. He agrees with the aver
age Britisher that Americans are doubtful
cattle, and he drops his acquaintance with
them in order to square himself with the
porters, bus drivers and hotel walters with
whom he comes into contact. One of his
fancies his pet fancy-is that nobody
would suspect him of being an American.
He hugs this dear delusion to his bosom

Ny soul today
Is far away;

Ny soul today
Is far away;
Sailing the Vesuvian bay
My winged boat,
A bird aeoat,
Swims round the purple peaks remote
Round purple peaks

Blue inlets and their crystal creeks,
Where high rocks throw,
Through deeps below,
A duplicated golden glow.
Far, vague, and dim.
The mountains swim;
While on Vesuvius' misty brim,
With outstretched hands;
The gray smoke stands
O'erlooking the volcanic lands.
Here Ischia smiles
Ger liquid miles;
And yonder, bluest of the isles,
Calm Capri waits,
Her sapphire gates
Beguiling to her bright estates.

Float swift or slow from cliff to cliff:
With dreamful eyes

Where sWells and falls
The bays deep breast at intervals,
At peace lie,
Blown softly by,
~ A cloud upon this liquid sky.
The day, SO mild,
LIS heavens own child,
With earth and ocean reconciled;
The airs feel
Around me steal ta
Are murmuring to the murmuring keel.
Over the rail
My hand I tail
Within the shadow of the sail:
A joy intense
The cooling sense
Glides down my drowsy Incidence.
With dreamful eyes
My spirit lies
Where summer sings and never dies
Oerveiled with vines,
She glows and shines
Among her future oil and wines.
Her children, hid
The cliffs amid,
Are gambOling with the gamboling kid:
Or, down the walls;
With hpsy calls,
Laugh on the rocks like waterfalls.

With tresses wild,
Unto the smooth, bright sands beguiled,
With glowing lip

Yon deep bark goes
Where traffic blows,
From lands of sun to lands of SHOWS;
This happier one,
Its course is run
From lands of snow to lands of sun.

To rise and dip,
With the blue crystal at you lip!
0 happy crew,

Sails and sails and sings anew!

Upbraids me with it's loud uproar!
With dreamful eyes
My spirit lies
Under the walls Of Paradise!
