Also Thanks for the Sleet and
SNOW.

As our local readers know it began to
rain here at about s O'Clock Monday even
ing. 1t was no mere drizzle, but q good,
square, hard rain. 1t continued to rain
in this satisfactory manner up to an early
hour yesterday morning. Then we had a
taste OF sleet, and a little later the &c white
fly" began to descend and kept up its lick
with scarcely an intermission throughout
the day. In the valleys, of course, it dis
appeared almost as fast as it fell, but there
is reason to hope that a good portion Of it
will stick higher up in the mountains.
Our sloppy streets are but temporary, and
may be endured with cheerfulness on &C.
count of the general good that will ensue.
The storm extended as far west as the sink
OF the Humboldt that we know; how much
farther we do not know. To the eastward
1t seems TO have been. more general. On
the great plains east of Cheyenne the
telegraph wires went down Monday
evening and remained PROSTATE all day
yesterday. This is conclusive that the
Storm King ragged with greater fury out
that way than in these parts. 1t is also
believed that it was snow that did the mis-
chief OF the plains. The wires are seldom
affected by a simple rain storm, no matter
how driving and tempestuous it may be.
Along the headwaters OF the Humboldt
river, however, we have evidence that it
was mostly rain that fell. The Humboldt
river began to rise rapidly yesterday morn
ing, and was swelling at latest accounts.
AS noted elsewhere, the county bridge at
Palisade was seriously threatened. The
Central Pacific ~east-bound train was two
hours late, but whether the delay was at
tributable to the storm, we could notlearn.
All in all, this has been a glorious storm.
1t came, too, just at a proper time. There
will be millions in it for the ranchmen and
stock ~raisers. The deserts will now bios
som as the rose, and the bunch grass will
be knee-high on the mountains before you
know it.. Sharon never accomplished half
as much in the ~blossoming business as this
middle OF May storm will do for US.

Our Reasons.

In fact, we sell all goods at San Francisco
prices, and NO HUMBUG. For the benefit Of
those who want to know how we sell Goods so
ways in the market, and are thoroughly con-
versant with the Dry Goods business, being
brought up to it from childhood, aud therefore
know the texture of any piece OF Goods, and
market all the time know when they see .
piece of new goods, and no old stock that has
been in the store for years can be palmed Oh
on them % being of the latest pattern. And
as we buy our goods for cash we get . certain
percentage which those who do not annot OBJ
tain. These are some of the reasons why we
sell SO cheap. Another reason is we sell for
cash. thereby lesseHing our expenses. II we
had to keep . set Of books we would need
more help. And again, we do not believe in
the theory of charging good customers with
the debts of others to make good their losses.

ITEMS.
Clipped from the Courier of LAST
Saturday.


Saturday.
Work in the Barcelona mine ct Spanish
Belt progresses satisfactorily. The ledge
in the north level is over nine feet in width,
and ore taken from the winze this week as
saved $73S 80. The lowest assay from this
portion of the mine went $56 II. The
new pump will arrive here from New York
in a few days, which will greatly facilitate
operations in the winze. The company has
located a tract of land east Of the tunnel
as a mill site for the Barcelona, and Direc-
tor W. F. Leon informs us that it is the
intention of the company to erect reduc-
ton works this year. The water from the
tunnel has a fall of 200 feet, and it is pro-
posed to run the mill by water power,
which will be q great saving to the com
pany. /.
II is somewhat strange that the railroad
people have never thought Of building q
narrow gauge railroad through Smoky
Valley. 1t is q we'll known fact that the
Tolyabe mountains are full OF rich min
erals, but the owners OF mines are unable
to develop them properly for the want Of
quick and cheap transportation. 1t would
be we'll for railroad builders to make o
note of this.

NOblcnlen "a Walters.

A story is afioat to the effect that .
foreign authoress who went to Delmonl-
co.'s uptown restaurant to dine found
that the waiter who came forward to wait
upon her was her own brother. The
item was shown to the manager ut Del
monico's and lie was asked if there was
any truth in it. He shook his head and
smiled.
every now and then. he said, ''some
story Of the kind is set afioat. General
". however, it is about waiter Who 10
nobleman."
s.Is it not fact that occasionally you
have nobleman among you?"
at is not at all unlikely. There are
plenty Of nobleman abroad who are very
poor, and sometimes are hard put to i
for good meal. In such cases they
often drop their titles. If they come to
this country, why should they not work
at waiting as we'll rs any other business?
Then there are fast young noblemen
who run through their means and emf
CRATE. They have not been brought up
to any business; they are unacquainted
with the American ways of life. But
thew know about table service, and job
as waiter is the thing they are best fitted
for. Noblemen are not scarce IN the
Old Word. In Germany the title goes
| to all OF the SONS Of q nobleman. Ihave
no doubt there are noblemen jerking
beer in the Bowery. We have had
| noblemen occasionally among our corps
| Of walters. There is nothing surprising in
| it. We see men-merchants, brokers,
etc.-who make great deal Of money.
They live fast, spend freely, and make q
big figure in the world for a time, and
then comes smash, and they disappear.
Perhaps we may afterward hear Of them
working in mine or herding cattle on
the plains. There is nothing to surprise
anyone in finding that the waiter who
takes your order is q baron or . count. "
