The Following

Are some ofthe reasons why the Dalla
Female college is so largely patronized:
|. The teachers, in all the departments
are accomplished in their profession, pains
taking laborious and conscientious. Thev
know what to teach, how to teach, and thew
teach it.
q The course of study, in its extent and
comprehenslveness, is unsurpassed by that Of
any school in the state nor does any out OF
the state offer better II includes Just what
q girl ought to know.
3 The school is properly disciplined and
graded; that secures the bestdeportment and
application possible and this assigns TO every
student her proper class snd special teacher,
4. The building is the largest and finest of
its class in the state, and it is beautifully sit
uated in large and handsome plat of ground
IN convenient and accessible part of the
city.
5. Our citizens are intelligent, know how
TO appreciate such advantages, and therefore
patronize the institution that affords them.
Because of these things theschool was nev.
or in so prosperous condition as now.
Every day the large and pleasant
study halls are filed with bright, happy
girls intent on tho acquisition of knowledge,
cheerGully submitting themselves to The
rigid mental and moral drill here observed
q stgdy and drill that cannot fail of its
splendid result viz: Through intellectual Gull
ture and noble character formation.
While there are many pupils in the school
there is room for more aud the system of
careful grading and classification, together
with the full supply of'teachers, will prevent
neglect of any. Pa!ronize home institutions
Let us place ut the command of this colleg
all the conditions of continued success.

The EranSiinS Attorneys.

This is how the attorneys in the
Mint investigation act when the case is
in progress. The Post report gives the
following: Mr.. Page then produced
anoth er letter from General La Grange,
and said he wished to offer it in evil
dence. 1t was written by General La
Grange in May last, and bore date of
April 18th. 1t was written in New
York, and sent to him in Washington.
General Barnes-Sent to you?
Mr. Page-Yes sent to me at Wash
ington. Who did you suppose it was
sent to?
General Barnes-I don't know. l
knew he had written one letter to a
gentleman, but
Mr.. Page-What do you mean?
General Barncs-Just what said.
Mr.. Page-Do you mean to say that
am not a gentleman
General B.rnes-My language could
not be mistaken.
Commissioner Hoaghton, at this
juncture, called both gentlemen to
order. The objection to the letter was
withdrawn, and the manner Of arrang-
ing the argument was discussed; after
which the commission adjourned until
to-day.

KOUMIss.
What the President Can Retain on His
stomach.

The Russian Calmucks ferment
cancels or mares milk, and by distilling
the fermented liquor obtain an intoxi-
eating drink called "koumiss." The
article, in its unfermented state, has
been introduced by physicians in the
| United States of late, and it is said to
be the only article of food which the
President, while afflicted with nausea,
could retain on his stomach. \ cores
pondent of Food and Health gives the
following receipt for making it:
Into one quart of new milk put one
gill Of fresh buttermilk and three or
four Jumps of white sugar. Mix we'll
and see that the sugar diSsolves. Put it
in warm place to stand ten hours,
when it will be thick. Pour from one
vessel to another until it becomes
smooth and uniform in consistency.
Bottle ard keep in 4 warm place twenty
four hours, il takes thirty-siy in winter.
The bottles must be tightly c0rh.ed and
the corks tied down. Shake we'll FIVE
minutes before opening.
1t makes a very agreeable drink,
which is especially recommended for
persons who do not assimiate their
food, and fer young children may be
drank as freely as milk. Instead of
buttermilk, some use teaspoonfull o.
yeast.
1t is the standard beverage of the
Tartars, who almost live upon it n
summer, and is also used largely by the
Russians.
CAUTION The richer your milk,
which should be unskimmed, the better
will be your koumiss.

TEs.SDA'ls TABLET.


The more that is seen of the Nevada
tablet the less is thought Of it. The
opinion is generally expressed that
aside from the marring of the stone
with the name of the cutter, the stone
itself is in no way q geological clfarac-
teristic OF the State. Nevada is not
noted for granite and very little of this
rock is found within its borders.
Quartz is the characteristic rock Of Ne
vada and a stone hewn out of golu and
silver quartz and polished, with the
simple inscription "Nevada" would
hold its own in the Washington monu-
ment and be something OF which the
citizens of the State might we'll feel
proud. The niggardly appropriation of
$500 by The Legislature has resulted in
stone which reflects anything but
credit upon the State. Let the amount
necessary to cut suitable tablet be
raised by dollar subscriptions sent di-
rectly to the Governors office. A
thousand dollars can easily be raised by
this plan.

THE PRESIDENT.
Latest From the Executive Mansion.

WAsHINGToN, 1:45 p. M.-Since
the noon examination the surgeons
have lanced the Presidents inflamed
parotid gland and liberated a small
quantity Of pus. The patient did not
take any anesthetic and did not seem
much weakened by the operation. The
pulse Immediately afterward went up
to 1lj. but at once receded and is now
10i. Dir. Reyburn says the results are
entirely satisfactory, and the informa-
ton is confirmed by DR.. Hamilton.
DR.. Bliss is quoted on the street as
having told a friend last night that
everything that couId be done by hui
man beings had been resorted to by the
attending surgeons to scatter the swell
ing Of the Presidents pa-otid gland
but it did not appear to yield, and sup
duration seemed inevitable. The doc
tor thought, however, it is said, that
the discharge would Re comparatively
light.
Blaine - Notwithstanding to the
opinion Of his physicians there is no
marked change in the Presidents con-
dition since the last dispatch. At this
hour (haif-pa>t o'clock p. NJ there is
some indication of al increase of fever,
which they say is in part caused by the
increased heat of the day. He con inues
to take liquid food and does not seem
troubled by nausea or indigestion.
When the surgeons assembled this
morning the President again required
to the topic so prominent in his mind
yesterday and the day before-his re-
moval to Mentor. He insisted on some
time being fixed. As the surgeons
have all eady told him his wound is now
causing them little anxiety, he could
see no reason why such trip should
iniure him. Upon being told that SO
long railroad Journey would be inn
prudent, he said he had determined not
to remain in the White House any
longer if he could help it, and asked if
he couIC go to fortress Monroe Oh a
steamer. The surgeons could only
promise him that he WoUld be removed
at the earliest possible moment when it
could be safely done.

THE CO3IsTOCA BONANZA.
The Ledge Sealed Book to the Press.

The Chronicle makes light Of the AP-
pEAL's article on the condition of the
Sierra Nevada mine. It is not SUBJ
ject for merriment. The people of Ne
vada and California have been waiting
over two years for development in the
mine, while the SLOW but certain grind
of regularly recurring assessments has
gone bravely on. \ few months ago
miner offered to deposit $1,000 in
Wells-Fargo and forfeit the money if he
could not strike ore. Although. the
management protested to be anxious to
find bonanza they made no reply to
the proposition. The public may rest
assured that no bonanza will be I'M
covered on the Comstock until the in
siders are ready. The ledge, with all
its dips, spurs and angles aud sinuos-
tiles is a sealed book to the press. The

THE COOK FUND.
Yesterdays Subscriptions I'm Carson

The Cook Fund boom seems to be
fairly under way. Yesterday the AP
PEAL office was beseiged with people
who came in to deposit their pennies
and postage stamps. Little girls
toddied up stairs to make their con-
tributions in person and all seemed to
understand what the money was for.
One boy, however, but seven years old
seemed to have sOmWhat misunderstood
the objects of the fund. He came in
with a short bit and said it was to help
out the man who got his mouth slapped
for hurrahing for Garfield. When the
state of the case was explained he was
quite delighted and wanted to know if
Cook had also kicked the man. The
contributions bring to light lots of old
coins which are not often seen in Ne
vada. One and two cent nickIes are
frequent and three cent silver pieces
have also been unearthed. \ Canadian
half dime aad French frame came in
with the rest. The ins;nuation by a
Democratic newspaper that the money
