to the satisfaction of all concerned.

Durango's First Baby.

Miss Una c. Pearson. infant daughter
of John and Ella Pearson, bears her hon.
ors gracefully of being the first child
born in Durango. The happy event
occurred on Monday, Jan. 81, 1881. We
have noticed an unusual number of peo-
pie going in the direction of the young
lady's domicile for few days past
frontiersmen, who probably had not
seen an infant for twenty years; old
miners who would part with their last
nugget for glimpse of the fragile bit
of humanity; prominent business men.
teamsters, doctors, lawyers and women
all wendell their way to see the new ar
rival. One cid miner from Silverton
presented the little curiosity with q.
bag of gold-dust. McFadden d Son
gave q deed for . town lot on Second
Street; MIR. Luttrell followed suit with
corner lot on the Boulevard; Mr.. Greek
sent over four tons of coal; Newman,
Chestnut & Stevens made the little ones
heart glad with adozen bottles of sooth-
ing-syrup and John Taylor. Jr., followed
with soft hair brush, while Griffin q
Carpenter sent in rubber ring and a
box of safety-pins. Mr. aud Mrs. Dia-
mond gave the baby their little :" cross
dog" Prince TO play with when she gets
old enough. Robertson u Rowley, as
soon a. they heard the news, went to
work making baby-carriage. Ed
Schiller wanted to give away his baby
steam-engine, but it makes such big
racket thatit would keep the little one
awake, so, instead. he presented re-
ceipt for post-0ffice box. The Record
put her name down for years SUBJ
scription to the daily and weekly gratis.
Finch. of the e Nose Paint" thought
his goods were too strong, so he bought
q powder-box as his Offering, for face
paint. DR.. Cowen, of the Windsor,
gave box of toothpicks; that's about
as much as q bachelor knows about
babies. Baldwin, the shoemaker, tried
to take her measure for pair of shoes,
but his lasts were all too small Justices
Flagler and Craig and ex-Justice DE
Mates, of Leadville, made a call in
body and took dispositions that she
really was the first born. Mr.. Eldridge,
of Leadville, presented aquilt. Myers
(another old bach. }. of Myers &-West,
brought up pony with side saddle
for the young lady to take horseback
ride. Other and various things too nu-
merous to mention were offered at the
shrine of the first born, and, taking it
all in all, no other baby ever received
such rousing welcome as this one in
the Sc glorious climate Of Durango"

Slightly Mixed.

The other night. q fellow who had
been on little time and was vainlv en-
deavoring to get home, tumbled into
the Boston & Maine depot, at the rear
entrance, Traverse Street, and thus &C
costed the official in charge: "'Keer,
friend, want TO 60 Wesnuton." at the
same time putting his forefinger into
his vest pocket to produce some scrip,
which action caused him to nearly lose
his equilibrium. WELL replied our
friend Knight, "this is the Boston 4
Maine depot; if you wish to go to West
Newton, you will have to 90 to the Bos-
ton & Albany depot" s.Thassor' said
the discomiitted traveller, sitting down
on the end of wheelbarrow, but sitting
on the floor immediately afterwards, as
the barrow succumbed to his weight.
Yes, that is so, said the railroad man,
helping him to make his exit where he
entered, and bidding him goodnight.
About fifteen minutes later, an internal
humping at one of the side entrances
on Haverhill Street, caused Mr.. knight
to hurry quickly to that portion of the
building and open the door, which the
man outside might have done easily by
simply lifting the latch. Well. what
isitP" in severe tone of voice. WANT
60 Wesnuton," he muttered, pushing
right in, as though he had at last found
the desired haven of rest. He was i'm
mediately turned about, however, and,
after being forcibly informed as to where
he was, and where he should go, he
sadly departed. Not over. twenty min
utes elapsed, however, before he again
put in an appearance; this time at the
Haymarket Square end of the depot.
Walking boldly in, and not recognizing
the genial and now thoroughly amused
official, he commenced, Are you the
Superintendent The last word was
tough one, and it bothered him q good
deal % No. sir; but can give you any
information you desire" WELL" lean
ing against the door-post. s.want 20
Wesnuton. s' You can't do il, sir,
here; this is the Boston & Maine depot.
Do you hear. sir7 the Boston & Maine
depot" A silent, q vacant stare of full
two minutes duration and the mis-
guided stranger broke forth, "'Keer,
now. this things gettin' 'cidedly old;
this makes the third depot I've been
into tonight and they said twas Boss y
Maine Can't all be Boss'n Maine

The Republican papers, with . sensf
tiveness born of the Presidential con-
test of 1876, have taken great pains to
let the people of the United States
know that Mr.. Garfield was fairly
elected President. and that he did not
20 into the White House with plural
ity of the popular vote against him.
They now give Garfield vote at A.
446. 623, and Hancock's at 4.443, 106--
showing an excess for Garfield over
Hancock OF 1852 votes. This differs
slightly from the Tribune almanac's
table. which gives Garfield over Ham
cock 3,03S. 1t is to be remembered,
however. that these are pluralities, not
majorities of the whole popular vote
cast. There was . third Presidential
candidate in the late election--Weaver.
Greenbacker, and he received 307, 740
votes. When these are taken into the
account it is found that, while Gar
field ran ahead of his most impovtaut
competitor, $500 votes. he lacked 316.-
706 votes OF majority OF the whole
number cast. In other words, there
was . majority in the popular vote Of
SIG. FOG against Garfield.
hut there is little significance in these
figures Mr.. Garfield was elected, and
no person in the land disputes his claim
to be the rightful President It would
be desirable, If it were practicable, to
have the successful Presidential candi-
date receive majority of all the votes
cast, SO that he might be clearly indi-
Gated as the choice of his countrymen.
But this cannot always bel unGer our
existing electoral system, and we must
be content at times TO see : man right
fully inaugurated who has received only
plurality of the votes cast for three or
more candidates, or who. while receiv-
ing . majority of the electoral votes,
may receive only aminorityof the popu-
lar votes. It is . proof that the Re-
publicans were never entirely satisfied
with MIR. Hayes title to the Presidency,
when they take such pains TO show that
Mr.. Gartield's is . great deal better. -

A Typical Frosneefor.

Major Stafford, the diseoverer of the
new district near Palisade, the mar
yelous assays from which have cre-
ated such commotion in mining cir
cles, is typical old-time prospector.
The Eureka Leader says he has been
hunting mines now for many years,
and every new excitement is as sure
to attract the Major as molasses is
flies. lie was in the Reese River
country hunting float and surface in
dications before Austin or even Clifton
were founded. He explored Big Creek
and Washington districts in 1868, and
tackled Twin River District in 1864.
lie was among the first in the White
Pine excitement aud Treasure Hill,
Robinson, Cherry Creek and every
other mining camp at that region wit
messed the Majors coming and
going. He was an original Tuscara-
ran. In short he had tackled
more float and stuck his pick into
more surface indications than any
man of our acquaintance in Nevada
This summer he has been prospect
ing in Utah, and was oil his way in
from that region TO Lewis District
when, on coming down Enigrant Ra-
vine below Palisade, his eye caught
sight of a piece of promising float.
lie started Immediately in search of
the ledge from which this float came,
and shortly came across the crop
pings ofthe Onondago. Taking some
specimens from there, he pushed on
10 Lewis, where he got them assayed.
To his surprize, their assays gave
return of over $500 per ton. He i'm
mediaiely returned and located his
find, whose develovments will either
result in opening up valuable mine
or prove that a veteran prospector
may be fooled by deceptive assays
from groupings. For a good old
mans sake. who Is old enough and
has done enough to lie in the shade
the balance Of his life, we hope that
his widest anticipations may be re-
allied.
