The Cattle Business.

The cattle shipping business is get
ting to be quite brisk here again, al.
though there is not such rush as there
was in August. Over seventy cars
have been ordered at the railroad office
for the ensuing two weeks. These cars
will take about 400 head, all to Cali
fornia. Yesterday, L. Godchaux
shipped eight carloads to Brandenstein
& Co., San Francisco, and twenty cars
are ordered for Policy, Hebron h Co.,
for next Monday. Men in travelling
over the railroad are apt to make a
wrong estimate of the number of cattle
in the country. A Reno paper, whose
information was derived from reporter
who travelled over the road to Elko,
thought there were scarcely thousand
beeves in. Eastern Nevada; yet, since
then at least fifty carloads have been
shipped, and seventy-f,e or eighty
more will be shipped, from this station
alone, this month.

Almost Young Again.

"My mother was afflicted long time

nervous prostration, and was almost

such good effect that she seems and

years old. We think there is no other

When the train from the South stopped

standing near whom she supposed to be

throwing her arms about his neck,
showered kisses upon him. The gen.

she ceased her oscillations gentleman
standing near them remarked: "Well,

A Mountain of Ore.

We learn from General Buckner,
who visited the White Cloud copper
mines east of Lovelock, that there is a
mountain of ore in the district, and it
is situated in the midst of the heaviest
belt of nut. pine timber in the State.
The ore, or part Of it, in the largest
mines, seems to be mixture of iron
and copper but as the whole side of a
steep mountain, for distance of sew
eral hundred feet, is mass of ore,
which is only prospected by shaft
sunk here and there in the mass, it is
impossible to form a correct idea of its
extent OF richness.

two o'clock in the afternoon, and will
be over five hours in crossing the face

with the naked eye. Astronomers take
quite an interest in the transit, and are
making the necessary arrangements to
take observations. The next transit

Mirror of Ireland.

Don't forget that this grand combina-
ton of the spectacular and dramatic is
to appear at Centennial Hall this even
ing. Dan Morris Sullivan and Josie are
whole show in themselves, while the
other attractions are unexcelled. The
Virginia Chronicle of Tuesday evening
speaks of it's performance at Piper's
Opera House in the following terms /:
''The panorama of Irish scenery exhib-
tied last night, at the Opera House,
proved entertaining, not only to those
who looked on the paintings as pictures
of home, but to all present, who could
appreciate faithful representations of
the romantic and beautiful landscapes
and water views, for which Ireland is
noted. The programme is skillfully ar
ranged so that there is not at any one
time surfeit of pictures, or singing, or
dancing. On the contrary, there is a
pleasing ariety, which prevents mono
tony and keeps the interest fresh.

An Expected Celestial Visitor.

The San Francisco Bulletin SAYS
zone of the clergymen of this city
Rev. Robert McKenzie-referred in a
discourse on Science and Religion, to
the expected appearance of notable
celestial visitor. This is a star which
is sometimes called the Star of Bethle-
hem, and which, according to some as
Economical calculations, is now due,
and may at any time blaze forth in all
its brilliancy and celestial glory. This
star was last seen in 1872. 1t shone
out suddenly where no star was visible
before, and was so bright that it could
be seen at MONDAY. 1t gradually
faded, assuming various hues as it did
so, until it disappeared. This wonder
full star is believed to have been seen in
the years 1864 and 942. Its apparent
period, If extended backward, indicates
an appearance of this star about the
time of the birth of Christ; hence it's
name: Star of Bethlehem. If you wish
to know where to watch for it, look
some forty degrees to the southwest of
Jupiter, and you will see a group of
stars arranged thus:
