A Good Housewife.

The good housewife, when she is giving
her house its spring rcnoyalng, should
bear in mind that the dear inmates Of her
house are more precious than many houses,
and that their systems need cleansing by
purifying the blood regulating the stomach
and bowels TO prevent and cure the diseases
arising from spring malaria and miasma,
aud she must know that there is nothing
that will do it so perfectly and surely as

A Hardened Criminal.

Henry Mcdonald, who was tried at Sill
yer City, Idaho. recently for the killing of
George Meyers, and convicted of murder
in the first degree, is compared to Rover,
who murdered Sharp at the Rabbit Hole
Sulphur mines in Humboldt county a few
years ago. In both cases, says the Silver
State, the murderers were alone with their
victims, and Sc far as is known, slew them
without p~rovocation, and buried their mu-
tilated remains. At the trial of Rover
here, Sharp's chopped-up and mutilated
clothing was dumped on the floor of the
Courtroom, near defendants feet, but he
exhibited no signs Of emotion, except to
bend forward as if he intended to handle
it. At the trial of Mcdonald, one of the
witnesses informs the Idaho Democrat that
when the boxes containing the bones, hair
and clothing of the murdered Meyers were
taken into the Courtroom and emptied on
a table, Mcdonald never changed color or
moved a muscle, but the veins of his neck
swelled and stood out like small ropes,
showing that however well he succeeded in
preserving a calm and unmoved exterior, a
fearful storm surged and ragged within.

The soiree Of the Eureka Social Club at
the Opera House last evening was a de.
hShtful affair. Only a limited number OF
invitations had been issued, and in conse-
quence the crowd was not large enough to
interfere with the pleasures Of the dancing.
h toilets of the ladies in general were
elegant and very becoming, many showing
admirable taste. The music was furnished
by Messrs. Plumhoff, Riegelhuth, Come
and Pascoe, and is deserving Of praise, for
II has seldom been more even and aRree-
able. The members Of the club in charge
OF the floor gave general satisfaction, and
everybody was loud in praise of the excel
lent programme and management. Among

WorNhiu.

The Reno Gazette tells the following
story The history of Nevada's pious de-
velopment would be incomplete without
the following Sunday School experience.
In the early days, when the country was
young, and Washoe City was the New York
and Athens Of sageland, Hon. W. NJ.
Boardman was Superintendent of a thriv-
ing Sunday School in the metropolis.
Judge G. N. Harris was leader Of the choir
and Judge Webster, Dan. Boyd and others
were conspicuous heads of the various
classes and taught the young idea how to
shoot Biblically. One day the Bible class
of a certain county official became obstrep-
erous, and he reasoned with them, but to
no avail. Finally, Smoky" who was a
member OF the class, declared that he
want goin' to have no more pious taffy
in his'n, and he proposed to amend the
commandments to suit the Washoe idea"
" Here" said the teacher, "G-d d-n
your %impndence. l eau lick a whole room
full like you. Now you put the seat Of
your pants Oh that bench. and don't chip
in again until it's your play. If you do,
I'll be d-n if | don't kick the lights ont
of YOU"

Minstrel wit and Humor.

Hazlitt says hat from the beginning Of
the world to the time of Hierocles, the
early Christian days, mankind had perpe-
trated only about twenty-one jokes. Dur
ing nearly 5000 years the world had only
these twenty-one funny sayings to laugh
at. NEW joke was made on an average
every $50 years. The minstrel troupes
which have performed here dpring the
past two weeks remind us Of that good old
ante-Christian period, when a joke lasted
$50 years. Although it is claimed that
from the time of Hierocles down to the
present day the number Of j~ocose sayings
has increased from twenty-one to pretty
nearly twenty-one million, the Ministries
have not discovered the fact, and render
the same stale old gags we heard nearly
twenty years ago. George Washington's
little Ratchet is hurled at the audience
year in and year out. and has become an
inseparable adjunct to an old moke's
repertoire. Whenever the end man is
pressed, down comes the cherry tree.
There was a time, however, when min
strelsy sparkled with genuine wit, but
senility has taken it's place, and instead Of
fresh meat the amusement public is treated
tn fetid mental hash. Ministries Of talent
like Emerson and Rice, who have reached
the highest round Of the buInt-cork lad
der, are as innocent Of originality now as
were many OF their competitors ten years
ago. What they will be five years hence it
is hard to prophecy.

Excitement at the ormsby.

On Saturday last, says the Carson APP
peal, Mr.. Sharp OF the Ormsby was DELHI
Grating in his mind how to get a Comstock
ledger ont of a suite of rooms, when one
Of the help rushed in breathless with !:
"Massa, TO- de Lawd, de dawg hab got
foauh pups" Mr.. Sharp. somewhat ex-
cited, rushed out and found that his big
Newfoundland dog had seven. He imme-
diately went to the telegraph Office and
sent a dispatch to his son Henry at the
Tallac House, acquainting him with the
state Of affairs and the happy delivery Of
the litter. And an hour later two more
arrived, and the event was wired to the
lake. Next three hove in sight, aud Mr..
Sharp concluded to wait awhile. He did
so, and by 8 o'clock at night there were 16
in all, probably the largest litter ever
whelped on the coast. They are bright
and lively and all doing we'll.

School! for Girls.

Bishop Whittaker's School for Girls, at
Reno, will hold its closing exercises for the
term on June 20, 81 and %. From a
pamphlet issued by the school We learn
that Eureka was we'll represented at the
seminary last year, out of rs scholars five
being from the Base Range, namely, Agnes
Mary Hall, Ada Mannheim, Augusta Maj
helm, Grace Pardy and Emma Wander
lieth. The calendar of the school for
1882 has been arranged as follows: Ad-
vent term begins Thursday, August 25,
1881, and ends Wednesday, December II,
1881; Winter vacation, three weeks; Easter
term begins Thursday, January. 5, 1882,
and ends Wednesday June 81, 1882; Sum-
mer vacation, nine weeks. This school is
one of the best and cheapest institutions Of
learning on the Pacific Coast, and is To-
catedin a very healthy section of the State.
1t is an institution of which the people Of
the State should feel proud, and is deserv-
ing OF every encouragement. During the
past year tho school has had among its
pupils girls from San Francisco, Oakland,
and even Valparaiso, Chill, which shows
that its reputation is not confined to the
Silver State alone. Parents who desire to
make inquiries about the school should ad-
dress Miss Kate A. Sill, Principal, Reno,
Nevada.

The Chicago Mining Review says: "An
over estimate on the value Of easy trans
portation can hardly be made in figuring
on mining enterprises. An experienced
man recently remarked in the presence of
the writer that he would never again be
caught off water or railroads in his mining
ventures. The force of the assertion was
felt when he pointed out the fact that many
of the best producing mines were utterly
valueless, so far as the worlds market en-
tiers into the business, until railroads were
brought within easy distance. The first
step in mining is to demonstrate the fact
that railroad or water transportation is at
hand, and then may the mills and shelters
be pushed to their utmost without feeling
that the bullion product must go to pay
the mountain road wear and tear on wagon
tires and mule muscle"

why" he replied to q cop, 8" never
saw SO much push and rush in Detroit
since the war, and l presume it is so all

to my profession, which you are aware is
that Of burglary. / haven't been so rushed
in 10 years. l have advertised in a dozen
papers for a { PAL but can't get n at any
price. Third-class men, only fit to put up
ladders, hold lighted candles, pound with
a sledge and swear an alibi, are getting
their own prices this year. The two l had
struck for 81 a day a piece, and / had to
pay it or let my business go TO ruin. You
have no idea of the number of chances we
have had for Jobs this year, and the sea-
son is promising all that any burglar could
ask for. | am SO pushed that l hardly
know which way to turn first
Anything very big on handS"
"Oh! q dozen Of 'em. l ought to go
up Woodward avenue tonight and rob a
house where the back windows have been
left up for a whole week, but l may not
get around to il because one OF my pals is
dead drunk in his room upstairs. Then
there's a splendid show down Fort street.
Two Of the back doors won't lock, some Of
the chamber windows are unfastened, and
there's half a cord Of silverware piled up
in one room. Duty tells me that l ought
to take it in right AWAY, but something
may prevent. Dear me, but l wish Icould
hire at least three first-class burglars for
the next six weeks. I've got a special lay
for Them"
Anything startling?"
"Well, no. There's q bank in Toledo
we could get at very handy, a jeweler over
in Chicago who aches to be robbed, and /
know of a farmer out here a few miles who
has SO, 900 in gold in the house. If / had
two good men l could gather in at least
$50, 900 within the next ten days; but this
boom has taken me all aback. l need two
full sets Of burglars tools right off, but
my blacksmith is rushed with other work,
and must delay me. I went yesterday to
see about wigs and whiskers, and found a
dozen riders ahead of me-"
Its unfortunate"
Well, / should say so 1t just makes
my heart ache to know that scores Of back
doors are unlocked, hundreds of windows
left open, heaps of silver and jewelry left
kicking around, and here l am so fixed
that l can't half push business. I'm ner-
vous and uneasy, but I can't mend matters
as l see. If you happen to com across a
hall-thief and a pair of profess
craftsmen, / wish you'd send 'em to
me. I'll guarantee the very highest wages
and steady employmentfor the season."

HYSTERIA.
A Virginia Young Lady Afflicted
With II.
.fGold Hill News.l


A young lady living on the Divide known
as Mary Kenney (Kenney is the name of
her stepfather, Ptomey is her own name)
has been sick since the 9th of last month,
and as her complaint and the features Of it
are somewhat unusual, those around her
affect to believe (as they, as well as the
young lady herself are spiritualists) that
there is something supernatural about it.
Medical science, however, ~pronounces the
case to be one of hysteria.
The young lady was affected with dizzi-
ness on returning from school at o
time on the 9th Of last month, and went
home, complaining of blindness. Since
that day she has kept her bed, and it is as
serted that at times she can neither hear,
see nor speak; aud again, there are times
when she can hear and will talk with those
around her.
The girl is little over 10 years Of age,
is small and delicate, and her companions
say she was of a very nervous disposition,
and that at school she was frequently
heard to remark she would like to do
something no one else had ever thought Of"
She requested that the choir girls Of
Virginia would visit her last Sunday even
ing and sing to her. They did so. She
frequently said she could not hear them,
but it was noticed that when they finished
one song. she would Immediately ask for
another, at the same time naming it, aud
she never called for a song that had been
sung.
While a lady visitor was present the
other day, Mrs. Kinney was describing the
girls condition, and said she had a habit
Of pulling her hair; Immediately the
girl commenced doing 1T; also said the
girl had q habit of rolling her head from
side to side. No sooner were the words
uttered than Miss Kinney COM
menced rolling her head about as her
mother described. Thsn the mother
went on to say that she feared her daugh-
ter's hands were becoming numb, when
the daughter at once commenced rubbing
her hands together. Yet this all occurred
at a time when she was said to be totally
blind, deaf and dumb.
The physician in attendance says til
young lady is not paralyzed, but that shs
Is really very sick. This morning he con-
sidered her case hopeful for a recovery.

Dear to the lark is the shower,
And sunshine is dear to the bee;
The humming-bird loveth the flower,
But dear Ia old Erin to me.
And like the fond pillows of ocean.
That encircle her shores with their spray
My hearts love entwines with devotion,
That green isle that lies far away.
Until death it shall be my forced duty, .
To love to see happy and free.
That emerald Eden of beauty.
That lies in the midst of the sea.
And ofttimes my love for her brightens,
Alas that fell tyranny's sway;
O'ershadows the glory that brightens.
That green isle that lies far away.
But dark through The clouds Of her sorrow
And ~starless her slavery night:
Her sons will yet see theb bright morrow,
That will shine forth with liberty's light
And proud banners gorgeously cleaning.
Her heroes will boldly display;
And freedom shall bless with It's beaming
That green isle that lies far away.

News was brought to town this morn
ing, says the Candelaria True Fissure. that
in one of the tunnels now being run in
the White Mountains at the head of the
pipe line, for the purpose Of developing
more water, a stream had been cut which
was SO strong that it drove out the men in
the face Of the tunnel, and further opera
tions in that place have been suspended.
The tunnel had been extended but 80 feet.
This fact is another evidence that the sup
ply Of water in the White Mountain range
Is ample for a line Of pipe four times as
large as the enc being put in. In fact
there is enough water now at the source of
the ditch to fill one pipe, and with such
strikes as that of this week the supply can
be increased to any desired extent.
