no More weadinx pun..

The SENTINEL lately joined in with some
other Nevada newspapers to condemn the
toadyism Of the San Francisco press, hav-
ing special reference to recent splurgc
made Of the marriage of the daughter OF
A. N. Towne. The SENTINEL unfortunately
used these words: "We give Adam and
Eve the best imitation we can with the gas
that happens to be at command. If we
don't get anything for our jaw We are not
surprised, but if we do get something
well, we generally take it," Unfortunate
because the Daily Stock Exchange seizes
the opportunity to give us away entirely:
1t is too bad that the commercial charac-
ter Of those wedding notices has leaked out.
1t will be particularly severe upon the
rural aristocraey, who, when they send
the remnants Of the wedding feast to the
newspaper Office, will look in vain next
day for the usual editorial response, the
description of the palatial mansion, the
blushing bride. the manly groom. the
youthful mother, and the portly and re-
spectacle father. Now the country editor
will demand his pound Of flesh, and will
insist upon coin, as If he we're advertising
the opening of new saloon or the Sunday
dinner at the leading hotel"

ELOPEMENT.
The Gsd.iy Wife Goes Out In the
Bushes and Returns Not.

The Gaday Wife Goes Out In the
Bushes and Returns Not.
There is woman living In Pahranagat
Valley who, according to the Phoebe Rec
ord. is always ready to elope with any man
that presents himself. Her name Is AL
bright. and her last escapade occurred
about two weeks ago, while returning
home with her husband from Phoebe.
They were camped for the night, and dur
ing the evening, after the bed was made,
were sitting at the camp fire talking when
a couple Of residents of the valley appeared
and Joined in the conversation. After they
were there few minutes Mrs. Albright
got up and strolled out into the brush.
There was nothing thought OF this, for 1t
Ia very common in this country while trav-
cling and camping out for ladies to disap-
pear amid the brush aud in solitude gaze
upon the beauties Of the moon. After she
had been absent some minutes, the hus-
band thinking she had looked sufficiently
for all necessary purposes called her,
but she came not. He hunted in the
brush for long while, but could find no
trace Of his wife. 1t appears to have been
put up job. The woman met Big Jack
Baxter out in the brush. and he took her
upon his horse and started down the vail
ley. Mrs. Albright is n firm believer in
the theory that '.variety il the spice of
life" and ii seems that she is determined
TO have her share OF the spice. But the
romance Of tho story Ia somewhst spoiled
by Big Jack sending word back 10 Albright
few days after the elopement that he
"could get his wife in three or four days
by calling for her."

Vessel Pierced by a Swordflsh.

The British schooner Lulu is now in
the Old Dock at Shanghai for the pur-
pose of repairing damage sustained in
the open sea in way that proves that
navigators have dangers to contend with
other than shoals, rocks, and collisions.
The Lulu left Hong Kong for Foochow
on the 10th of December in a seaworthy
condition, and when off the Rashee
Islands, ON the Goth, she was oblighed
to heave-to in northeast gale. During
the storm the vessel experienced q
shock which caused the crew to imagine
that she had struck reef or q sunken
rock. She was in deep water, with
land invisible, and began to make water.
The impression was that she had sprung
leak in consequence of the roughness
of the sea. Fortunately the damage
did not develop so as to endanger the
vessel, and she was enabled to reach
Foochow, where she loaded for this
port. She also made the passage here
in saftey, and when her cago was dis
charged she entered the Old Dock 10
ascertain the cause of the leak. After
a careful survey it was discovered that
a swordfish had pierced with its sword
the four-inch live-oak planking of the
vessel about six feet from the keel and
twelve feet from the stem on the star
board side. The sword, which was over
two inches in diameter, had been broken
off short, having pierced the plank
diagonally, and left space an inch
wide on either side, through which the
water penetrated into the ship.

Ewes from which lambs have been
weaned may need to have the milk re-
moved from their udders. If to be fat
tened they should be fed liUerally
When the sheep are shorn, the ticks
gather on the lambs, and by dipping
them these pests may be destroyed. A
number of old and useful sheep dips
are advertised, or the home made tobacco
dip may be used.
Young chickens will now be coming
forward. Those of good breeds Matched
this month will begin to lay in the fall,
aud with care will continue through the
winter. The chicken coops need to be
moved frequently. There is no better
place for young chicks to forage than
vegetable garden; they will destroy
many insects. They should have an
abundance of fresh water and the coop
be set in a dry place.
at odd times, during rainy days, etc.,
it will be profitable to look over the
machinery and utensils used in haying
and harvesting, and see what needs to be
bought or mended, and thus be in read

What Is In n Name2

Much every way, chiefly to those who
have established one in a long course OF
honest, upright dealing, in acts of benev.

Lowest price" principle for over forty
years, and to-day the name of Knox in O
hat is guarantee that it is the best to
be found in the world.
