-THR proposition to abolish Of
fetal bonds meets with general favnr
in this county. 1t Is held that, if the
practice Of requiring officials to give
bonds were done away with, the cili-
zens would be more careful iu select
ing candidates for important offices
and that every taxpayer would then
constitute himself detective to see
that the officials performed their
duty. AS the Law now stands, an un-
worthy official generally manages to
escspe punishment, while his bonds
men are compelled to make the loss
accruing through his misconduct
good. There is great deal to be
said on either side of this proposi-
ton; yet, as the present system Of Of
fetal bonds has ceased to be sausiac-
tory something new might be tried
for while.

Noteware for the Harpers and John
magazine gives its readers an excellent
number. The leading articles are con-
tributed by Josephine Clifford, w. c.
Morrow, Joaquin Miller, and Charles
Phelps. The Post Prandials by Derrick
Dodd looks sadly out of place in the
columns Of so excellent magazine.
The subjects handled by Dodd are very
stale and his method of extracting fun
from them excessively clumsy. The
magazine cannot afford to lower its
tone by admitting such work. The
Harpers has its usual quota of interest
ing articles and the gravers work this
month is much better than usual.

Turning the Tables.

just now a man is obliged to sweat a
good deal to raise money, people are
turning the tables and making the coin
do the sweating. The Sentinel says:
"The extensive mutilation of silver
coin, supposed to be the work of the
Chinese, is being supplemented by the
system ofsweating gold coin. Evidences
of this fact may be had by inspecting
any stock of So gold pieces. The coins
seem to have been subjected to bath
of some kind, and are often found slight
ly clipped. The diminutiOn in weight
is sometimes considerable, and the west
ern MINIS, brokers and bankers refuse
to receive them, except at discount.
This has driven the coin to the interior,
and Nevada is being flooded with it..
In fact debased coin of various kinds
comprise the best part of our circulating
medium, and it will increasejust solong
as our tradespeople continue to take it.
Defaced coin of any nature should be
rejected. The banks have set the ex-
ample and will not take it at its face
value. Let the business community do
likewise" ..e

A CLAIRvoYANr SCARE IN BoDIE.
Mrs. Bowers Rips mp the Veil Of
Futurity

Since Mrs. Bowers the Seeress, ar
rived in Bodie she has given the town
considerable of shaking up. Her pre-
dictions have on several occasions been
verified. The Free Press says:
Several of the tragedies recently pre-
dicted by Mrs. Bowers, the Washoe
Seeress, have already taken place, and
two others are impending. She told
John Meyers that he would not go to
Gold Mountain, and he was killed two
days afterward. Just prior to that
time, however, she told a civil officer
that no less than three homicides would
take place in Bodie within short time.
Meyers and Hitchell have been killed,
and Mrs. Bowers now says that she
would advise all who have been in the
habit of visiting places where roughs
congregate to keep away for season,
as another tragedy will take place in a
short time. Norman McSwain, VIE
was killed by giant powderin the Bech-
tel mine last Thursday, consulted Mrs.
Bowers four. or five days prior to his
death, and after looking clairvoyantly
into his future, the Seeress warned
him of the danger he was in and
begged him to give up his job and 60
prospecting. She predicts another
fatal accident on the hill in the near
future, and says that when it occurs
several lives will be lost, and that she
can see crowds ofpeople running up the
hill by the Standard mill.
Thugs have reached that pass that
when she looks crosswise at q man he
gets the undertaken to make the pre-
surveys for his coffin immedi-
ateIy.

A Mile OF sheep.

Sheep raising has become quite an
industry in the eastern part of the
State. The Sentinel says; ga few
miles this side of the summit, on the
E. & P. r.. R., the mountain ranges are
covered with sheep. They must num-
Der all the way from five to ten thou
Sand, as they make the hillsides white
with their fieecy coats for mile or
more. The country, however, does
not look very inviting for raising NUT
ton or wool. Its forbidding aspect
shows only sagebrush and sandy soil;
vet it is asserted that the little tufts of
bunch grass which grow under the
ever-present sagebrush is very nutriti-
Gus, and that the sheep thrive and fat
ten upon it in short time. This is
the point from which our butchers get
some of theirjuiciest mutton.

THE BICYCLE.
A Machine Which should be introduced
i'm Nevada.

When Mr.. Sweeney gets his race
track in order he proposes to get a good
bicycle rider up here from San Fran
cisco and give some exhibitions of
speed on this novel machine. The term
novel is used here in Nevada, but it
could not be used in that connection in
the East, In some of the Atlantic
States bicycles are more common than
carriages. At a recent parade of
bicycle clubs over eight hundred men
were in line ri ding on the "winged
Wheels" In England there are now
three thousand firms engaged in the
manufacture of bicycles. Each year
brings out some fresh Improvement
and the machines are gradually getting
better and cheaper. Many dispense
entirely with carriages and travel fifty
and sixty miles day and are able the
next day to make even hundred.
This machine should be introduced in
Nevada. OF course it would not gain
much Roadway in the mountain towns,
but in the valleys where the roads are
level it could be readily used for travel
ing purposes. Hay and horse feed is
very dear in this section, and as the
bicycle has no stomach, it is a cheap
animal to keep. If once introduc ed,
the livery men would sell their horses
and keep bicycles to rent,

High Art.

Heritage is now embracing high art
with vengeance. He is painting the
dome of the capitol and when going
over some of the altitudinous columns
is obliged to hang by a rope swinging
from the base of the flag staff. People
with good glasses say it is an interest
ing sight to see him embellishing a
cornice hanging to the end of a rope by
his toes.

RisilOD Whitaker's school.

The APPEAL has received the annual
catalogue of Bishop Whitaker's School
for Girls at Reno. The institution has
now reached its fifth year and has
grown in favor from the first. There is
no longer any need of sending Nevada
GIRLS to Oakland to be educated when
there are such excellent facilities nearer
home. It is but simple justice to the
school to say that the advantages
which it offers for obtaining thorough
education in every department OF study,
and for the formation of a true womanly
character, are not surpassed by any
school west of the Rocky Mountains.

Let US Have an old time Celebration


Night before last an enthusiastic
meeting of citizens was held in Justice
Hires Courtroom in Virginia to make
preparations for the celebration of the
coming Fourth of July. The meeting
was called to order by David Crosby,
and A. F. Mackay was elected Chairman.
He explained in few words the object
of the meeting, and hoped all citizens
who wished to honor Independence Day
would take an interest in the proceed
ings. Robert Patterson introduced the
following resolution:
ResOlred, That a committee of five be
appointed to confer with the citizens of
Carson in relation to a grand demOnstra-
ton in Carson on the Fourth Of July by
the citizens of both Virginia and Carson.
The Resolutions. passed unanimously,

ted on the committee: John S. Pidge,
Robert Patterson, David Crosby, J. w.
Orndorff and Daniel Kelly. Adjourned

In view of the above a meeting should
be called at once to make preparations

JUDGE JOHN K. PORTER,
Of Counsel Prosecuting Guiteau;

District Attorney Corkhill is assisted
in the prosecution of the assassin Quit
eau by Judge Porter, who first attained
fame as one of counsel for Beecher, in
the great Beecher-Tilton trial. AL
though he then acted in subordinate
capacity, his industry and integrity
earned for him an enviable notoriety.
He was particularly strong in invective,
so terrible in the hands Of fluent and
scholarly man.
The case now in progress will give
him an opportunity to denounce, in his
forcible and able manner, the fiendish
act of the base assassin who slew his
country's head and plunged the civil
lied world in grief. Probably the ablest
prosecutor in the profession, in the
prime of his powers, and with q cause
appealing to the sympathies of the
world, there is no doubt he will fully
yindicate the trust reposed in him and
enhance his previous enyiable reputa-
ton.
Notwithstanding the general impress
sion, District Attorney Corkhill is an
able criminal lawyer, as well as an eff
fective pleader, as was shown by his
eloquent speech opening the case. His
| capabilities were conspicuously'seen i'll
the whisky-ring trials at 81. Louis.
Judge Porter has his office in New
York city, and commands a large and
lucrative practice.
