A father whose daughter had failed to
secure position as teacher, in conse-
quence Of not passing an examination,
said, They asked her lots of things she
didn't know. They asked her about
things that happened before she was
born! How was she going to know
about them? Why they asked her about
old George Washington and other men
she never knew! That was pretty sort
of examination!"

New Arrangement.

q
we'll established that Saur, the
Drug and Book Man, is ever
mindful OF the great wants and
demands of the people. He is
now opening out the largest and
grandest stock Of goods for the
holiday and winter trade which
can be seen any where. 1t
consists of almost everything
which is to be found in any
drug or book store.
In the Drug Department you
will find all the drugs, medi-
cines and chemicles of any note
known to the medical sciences,
as we'll as a full line of nearly
every kind of patent medicine
which has ever been compound
ed or discovered.
The paint, oil and varnish
depa1 tment is none the less
complete and carries every
thing in stock which is usually
found at our largestpaint stores
where paints and oils are made
a specially. .-
Then comes the great book
department, where may be
seen an endless variety of choice
books in every style of binding
and print, including papers and
magazines, which are made a
specially and make the news
depot complete. The private
library, which contains several
hundred volumes, furnishes
reading matter to hundreds ev-
cry year at. a nominal price
which merely pays for handling
the same.
Large sales are made annu-
ally IN the wall and window pa.
per department, which is the
very best voucher that the low
est prices and best quality are
always the rules which govern
this house. ..
And were we to neglect the
brush department we should
neglect the most important, from
the fact that it is always large,
complete ard the variety great;
and one grand feature of it is
that every brush is bought in
such a way and always direct
from the manufacturer and i'm.
porter. who authorizes every
brush warranted to give the
very best satisfaction or refund
the money.
The stock OF blank books an
stationery always contains ev-
erything required in that line by
the farmer, merchant and me-
chanic or general business man.
When we come to druggists sun
dries, fancy goods and notions, it is
simply impossible to enumerate even
the leading articles, such as pocket
books, bill books, perfumery, hair oil,
cosmetics, &C., and it is sufficient to
say that it contains everything orna.
mental, useful and pleasing to the eye.
Twenty years experience has taught
Mr.. Saur all the necessity and de-
mands of the people, as we'll as to Sc
lect his stock to the best advantage
and where and when to secure the bes
quality and prices. Goods are always
guaranteed to be as represented and
customers can at all times rest assured
that they will be well treated and will
get best ruling prices. If there is any
advantage to be taken of the market
Saur is always sure to be on hand, and
he is just as sure to give bis customers
the benefit of any such margins. Re-
member the place is at the sign of the
golden mortar, and that it will pay you
we'll to step in, see the goods and get
prices, even though you may not wish
to buy. 1t is always we'll enough to
see what our stores have and what
thdhe is in the market.

THE DEAD PRESIDENT.
Proclamation by the Governor.

Proclamation by the Governor.
Following is the text of the proc
lsmation issued by Governor Kin
kead Wednesday afternoon:
1t has become my painful duty to
announce to the people of this Com
monwealth the death Of the Chief
Executive of the Nation. James
Abram Garfield, twentieth President
of the United Stctes of America,
died at Elheron, New Jersey, at
1926 P. NJ, September 10, 1881.
A great calamity has fallen upon
US. For the second time in the his
tory of the Republic its citizens
stand aghast at the murder of their
chosen ruler. Assassination has
again stricken from the pedestal to
which the sufffages of the American
people had uplifted him, our fore
most citizen.
The nation is humbled; its flags
bend low; mourning overspreads
the whole land. The world looks on
in profound sorrow and pity. The
peer af any in the line of illustrious
men who have adorned the Chief
Magistracy of the Republic lies dead
-foully stain-without shadow of
reason. There is little left to do but
mourn. Let US abase ourselves be-
fore the thrown of the Omnipotent
and mingle our tears with those of
the mother, the wife and children of
our dead President. Let the sympa-
thy of a Nation envelop and upbear
them in this dread bereavement.
On Monday, the Goth day of Sep
TEN Der, 1881, the funeral obsequies
of the late President will he con
cluded. On that day l call upon
the people of the State of N svada to
aostain from all secular employment
and unite with the several religious,
civil and military organizations OF
their respective localities in appro-
pirate funeral ceremonies, as tribute
to the name and memory of the il
lustrious dead. Let us moreover
pray earnestly for the peace and
safety of our country and its Coy
arnment.

Don't Take the Fever.

When the old walk in front of the
postoffice was torn up, twenty FIVE
cent piece and short bit we're found.
The money was passed over bar
before the Assessor could notify the
Board of Equalization. The loss to
the county in tax receipts was Of no
consequence, but for time there was
imminent danger of destructive at
tack on all the old board walks in
town. The news rapidly spread
among the boys, and it was earnestly
argued by experts who were acting
as promoters of an exploiting COM
pany, that where the groupings
showed silver coins almost sticking
to the nails, systematic working of
the lead might develop deposit OF
$50 pieces. A company was formed
and general dismantling of the
highways would have ensued but
that public opinion prevented.
The doctrines of Henry George and
the Virginia Chronicle are not &C.
cepted here and the rights of private
property were respected. The desire
to search for lost or forgotten treas
ure is very seductive, but the young
people are cautioned against giving
way to it, as but few reap profitable
returns and our streets must be pre-
served for the use of pedestrians.

drift and excaFating for the blower
station.
South Drift-The crosscut has
been extended II feet since last re-
port. We have cut through the vein
and struck the andesite, which ap-
pears to be the west wall of the vein
At this point the total width of the
vein is about five feet. There is,
however, only about three feet of
quartz, which gives fair assays, the
balance being a stringer of quartz
and porphyry mixed.
North Drift-This drift has been
advanced total length of 40 feet,
with fair looking quartz in the face.
Cannot tell the character and width
of the whole vein until crosscuts are
made.

Runaway.

On Tuesday team belonging to
S. s. Buekland took fright at the
smoke from an engine on the G. & G.
railroad near Churchill, and running
away, overthrow and demolished a
light spring wagon to which they
we're attached. There was no one in
the wagon when the runaway took
place, and the horses, although they
went through fence, were not hurt.

Charley Mason and VIM. McTavish
who have been employed at the Ly-

enough to withstand the temptations
OF stocks. Before leaving each took
a large supply of pine nuts, as their
friends said for lunch, but really as

An Unexpected Strike.

On Monday new body of rich
ore was Unexpectedly discovered on
the Emigrant ground. The Emil
grant or Lower Comstock Company
has been adding considerably of late
tic the plant, and while digging the
foundation for an ore bin, just back
of the Trench Mill, the workmen
uncovered the ledge. 1t is close to
the surface, and shows the same
quality of ore as taken out through
the shaft. This is some distance from
the shaft at the south end, and is
evidence of large body of ore,
which undoubtedly continues south
ward into the Cherokee ground.

After Many Years.

The engine house was draped in
mourning on Tuesday, and the ma
terial was the same which was used
on the house when the nation mourn
ed for the assassination of President
Lincoln. The Grape was put away
at the expiration of the period of
mourning and has never been taken
out since, until the present occasion.
Sanctided by its former use it is a
fit emblem of the sorrow felt for our
second martyr.

day in Dayton, Silver City and Sutro.

were closed, the Board of Equaliza-
ton adjourned, and no public bu8i-
nesJ was transacted in the county

J. L. Campbell received this week
band of sheep and a fine lot of
cattle. There is no black leg or dis
ease OF any kind among the live
stock of this section, and the people
are in consequence fearless and en-
ergetic consumers of fresh meat,
which necessitates the frequent arri-
val Of devoted bands of cattle and
sheep at CampbelI's slaughter house.

Keeping Peace in the Family.

For some time il has been well
known that Bob Morrison, who is
better known as the husband of
Gentle Annie, the fruit peddler has
at times arranged domestic differen,
ces by beating his wife. Geo. Grer,
a miner IN Silver City, a short time
ago warned Bob that the next time
he heard of any wife beating he
wosld whip him on general pr'nci
pies, and did not have to wait long
before it became necessary to fulfill
his prnmise. Grier met Morrison In
a meat market in Silver City, and
reminding him of the agreement
carried il out in a workmanlike man
ner. This was last week Last sun
day Bob disappeared, taking with
him his good clothes ond according
to report ali the savings of the wife.
AT last accounts he had not been
heard from, and it is probable that
he will hunt some other woman who
will work for him.
