A THANKSGIVING PROCLAMATION

The year now closing will be mer.
orable in the history of our Govern
ment. A crime which appalled, the
American people and shocked the civil
lied world was committed upon the
person of the Nations Chief Magistrate.
The profound grief occasioned by his
sufferings and death still exist among
all classes Of our citizens. Yet it is Il
source Of pride and thankfulness that,
throughout the intense excitement at
tending the attack upon the late Presi-
dent, his long and heroic struggle for
life, his death, and the consequent
change Of administration, law and order
have reigned supreme. This evidence
Of governmental strength is matter of
especial graduation. While the citi-
zens of Nevada have not been favored
with exceptional business prosperity,
marked improvement is manifest, and
the outlook for the coming year is
bright. AS !. people we have cause for
thank fitness.
Wherefore, in accordance with the |
of the President of the |
United States, /, John Fl. kinlzead,.
Governor of the State of Nevada, do
hereby appoint and designate Thurs
lay, the 24th day of November, a. d.
1881, as day Of Thanksgiving to the
supreme Ruler for the manifest bless
ngs we enjoy, and urge upon the peo-
lie of this commonwealth hearty
lnion in its appropriate observance.
JOHN II. KINKEAD,
Governor of Nevada.

Louis XXI,

The attendance at the Opera House
last night was good, remarkably good,
considering the fact that the worst storm
Of the season was raging during the
afternoon and evening of yesterday
w. E. Sheridan appeared in his master
piece, sI4ouis XI," which has success
fully stood the test Of the severest of
Eastern and Western criticism. "Louis
XI.," one of the craftiest knaves who
ever sat upon throne, is difficult
character to give on the mimic stage,
and no one but a true artist can render
the part satisfactorily. This Mr. Sheri-
dan accomplished NEST successfully.
The transition of the closeted villainy
of the basest kind to a publicly affected
air of candor and humblest piety-from
inward devil to outward saint-showed
Mr.. Sheridan the thorough artist he is.
The support, which generally comes i'm
for left-handed compliments, no matter
how hard they work and how Well
they succeed, was in the main good. AS |
a whole last nights performance was a
good one, and will long be pleasantly
as among Carson's best
dramatic treats.

The Good Luck Or Dumas

Alexander Dumas, the famous French
writer, boasts of never having known a
disappointment in any venture he has
undertaken. An event which occurred
has given confirmation to the supersti-
ton which has been set afioat concern
ing this especial gift. The popular au-
! thor was just alighting fiom the train
when the crier of the place came up
with his bell to announce the loss sus-
| tanned by one of the great ladies So
journing there. The bracelet lost Was
of great value, but having been the
gift of the late Empress of Russia, its
value was increased tenfcld. The re-
ward offered was princely. The lady had
dropped it on the sands, and therefore
little hope was entertained of its re-
covery; it being gold and consequently
heavy, it would have sunk deep beyond
sight. Alexander Dumas laughing at
the ignorance which could suppose it
possible that any small object Of that
weight could ever be recovered under
the circumstances, walked jovially down
the beach, resolved to have Il dip before
dinner time. No sooner had he placed
his foot into the sea than he withdrew
it with cry of pain. 1t was streaming
with blood, and searching with his |
hand to ascertain what had caused the |
wound, he found the golden bracelet |
wedgsd in between two messy stones,
which had prevented its being washed
away to sea. The whole population of
Deauville turned out to congratulate
the hero of the adventure. Much to
his terror, they insisted on carrying
him to the hotel, and greatly to his
horror, upon serenading him with
penny trumpets and triangles all the
night long. Because he could not re-
fuse the reward, which would clearly
have been rejection of his luck, he
'nly claimed it to present it to the cure
% pay for bell for the church, to be
:hristened Jeannine, in honor of his
laughter.

rino and the Angora reach this standard
the most frequently, the fieeces OF s.Ggaay
keeping fairly abreast of them while IL
regular feeces are occurring constantly
among the ordinary focks of Spain and
Portugal and Italy, in which there will be
found an intermixture of long coarse hair,
OF thick Opaque hair, that makes dealers
look shyly upon the wool, as not being
''true grown" These discriminating hairs
liable to appear in any Of the heeces of
England and Wales when there have been
inclement seasons, when the sheep have

food has been consequently too scanty and
too fitfully obtained For regularity, or

ssnts about 25 per cent. of weight in the
Merino fieeces it represents nearly 80 per
cent. After cleansing it is gone and IL is
of paramount Importance that it should be
gone. Flock-growers like it to be present,
because, during their short ownership, it
keeps the feeces sound and lets 10 harsh
ness be detected. Fleece buyers get rid
of it at their quickest, because, after eight
OF nine weeks of packing, fermentation,
which they call Sweating" ensues. This
sweating makes the wool hard and brittle

warm, spontaneous combustion has again
and again resulted, and wool factories have
been leveled by it to the ground When
flock growers desire to consult the interests
of fleece buyers they will see that as much
as possible of this yolk is removed. The
Spaniards try for this after shearing when
they give the feeces good wash. Saxon
growers wash the sheep themselves before

tubs of warm water and soap lees, into
which the animals have their first dip
