The Christmas entertainment given
in the NJ. E. Church last Monday
evening by the Sabbath. school children
was grand success. The program
consisting of songs, solos, Duets,
declarations and readings were appro-

and declarations by the little folks.
All present seemed to enjoy the hour
thus fifty spent on this occasion. Much

A good story is told about certain
/ young man of Centralia. Christmas
he was having a royal time in his own
way and became seriously intoxicated.
While in this condition the boys say
he put out his horse in P. Dessaint's
barn and while there fell onto some
machinery and cut his head badly
During the night he walked up and
wondering what became of his horse
went to the stable where he usually
kept him, and he was gone. The con-
clusion was that he had been stolen.
He rushed to the residence of Marshal
Carey and on informing him that two
young men had stolen plaintiffs horse
and cutter and had gone to dance
on the Four Mile creek, Justice Lord
was aroused and the necessary
papers secured. A team was secured
and plaintiff and marshal sailed out
to the creek only to be disappointed
on reaching there. Everything on
the Four Mile was still as night. In
the morning the supposed horse thieves
were apprehended and brought before
Justice Lord. Several witnesses were
present and all claimed that the plain
tiff was so eight he had forgotten
where he left his rig and the defend
ants were allowed to depart in peace.
The laugh was all on the plaintiff.

Our evening contemporary is making u
severe study of legislation, doubtless with
special reference to this Winters work az
Carson. 1t has, up to date, ruled the
offices of Enrolling CLERK in the Senate
and Assembly out of existence, and, also,
in yesterdays paper, took the rather ex-
traordinary view that the Lieutenant
Governor cannot serve as Warden for the
State Prison, ION account OF a barrier in
the way Of constitutional opposition" Is
our contemporary unaware of the fact that
the Lieutenant Governor Of Nevada has
nearly always had ex-otficio duties imposed
upon him, and that in two instances. di-
rectly in point, he has serped as Warden
of the State Prison? Slingerland under
Blasdell, and Denver under Bradley, both
served in this ex-oficio capacity. There
is something of precedent in this, to say
the least, and if there is any coustitu-
tional prohibition against the imposition
of ex-oficio duties upon the Lieutenant
Governor, it is singular that it had not
occurred to anybody from the organization
Of the State Government, In 1864, up to
the present until our evening oontem.
detected it. The fact is, the Legislature
can pile on to the Lieutenant-G Governor all
the work it pleases, as the Constitution
says nothing to the contrary.

The Maynard Daughter.

line occurred yesterday, when a foolish
lass from Eureka was rescued from the
wiles of an insidious drummer. We shall

when they should be absorbed in music,
paintings and church fairs, they are con
cerned about matters which should have
no interest for them whatsoever. 1t is
hard to say where the fault lies. Perhaps
they were not spanked enough when they
were young. Spanking is a sovereign rem
edy for wsywardness. 1t teaches the folly
of wrong doing, and appeals more directly
to the feelings than the most exquisite dis
course that can be selected from the Sun

And such duster brush-holders in plush,

Communicated.
II is not a matter of doubt in any ones
mind that if q series of wagon roads we're
built on Prospect Mountain an immense
benefit to the town of Eureka would arise
therefrom. This subject has been brought
up and frequently discussed, but the fact
that the cost of building such roads would
necessitate extra taxation has always been
a serious drawback to the scheme, and the
people who would find it inure mostly to
their own benefit cry no to every PROPOSE
ton that is made in relation TO the matter.
No one knows as we'll as the prospector

Guilty which that hardy class of men have

that the saving that could be made in
hauling supplies to, and ore from their
mines to the furnaces would enable them
to ship immense quantities of low grade
ore to the furnaces. 1t is proper to state
here that the saving would be from two to
four dollars per ton. The business men
of Eureka are not generally aware that,
although the average Of the ore sent to the
furnaces from Prospect Mountain is Iicher
than that sent from Ruby. Hill, the low
grade ore found in the mines of the former
greatly exceeds the high grade iii quantity.
To such an extent does this occur, if the
proposed roads were built, That there are
ten mines on Prospect Mountain that
could be worked with profit TO the owners
of every one worked at present. This
being the case, is it not clear to every

A GIut Of Miners In Calico.

The Virginia Chronicle has received a
communication from Calico. sau Bernar-

not work enough in the camp for the
miners already there. This statement has
been deemed necessary, as it is reported
In Calico that efforts are making in Vir-
gina City to induce miners to go there by
representing that work at good wages can
be obtained. The Calico miners claim
that this is the first move in an effort to
eat down wages.
