Sanguin Men.

Carson as we'll as every other town in
the State, has {. considerable number OF
sangaine men, or rather men Of the
Micawber order, always waiting for
something to turn up without personally
eXerting themselves to assist in the
" turning up" process. We have in
our minds eye half dozen Of that
yen,ts, right in this city who have been
living on hope for the past seven or
eight years-a very diaphanous diet,
but still they are alive, and are still
hoping that something may "turn Up"
to turn the tide of their luck. This
half dozen dees not complete the list of
Carson Micawhers, for half q dozen
times that number would scarcely fill it.
They claim to be men Of ambition, hut
they lack that stimulant, energy, to as
sist them in realizing their ambitious
hopes. They continue to live in this
dreary, indolent, useless manner fOr
years, constantly looking for a spontan
eolis burst Of fortune upo9 them ny the
downfall! OF some honest, successful man,
or otherwise, until they become regard
ed as being in the way Of decent men.
Out Of this material is made the male
gnssip and sIanderer. These Micawbers
who for an age beyond the recollection
Of the rising generation have no. earned
an .onest dollar, grow by reason Of their
i'll success in life, which is only to be
attributed to their lack Of pcrper
energy and push, to be lnisanthropes
of the reptilian order whose every hiss
is against the fair name Of some good
woman or man. Is the pen picture
recognized

Horses Drowned In the Truck ee

Dave Cheesinan had the misfortune
to lose three horses in the Truckee
river a few days ago. He was hauling
wood to Union Mills and attempted to
cross the river and made a mistake in
the ford, and did not discover his mis-
take until it was too late. Mr.. Chees-
man then jumped into the water and
succeeded in cutting the horses loose,
but before this was accomplished two
of them were drowned. One Of the
Headers, as soon as he was released
from the harness, started out to swim
fer the opposite shore, but the current
was SO swift that it was carried down
the river and over dam some distance
below, where it struck rock and was
instantly killed.-Reao Gazette.

The public have always been lacking
confidence in pawnbrokers' shops, from
the fact that they were here to-day and
away tomorrow, they having no re-
gard for the patronage Of their custom

one exception in California, and that is
the establishment Of Tn lie Harris, the

and at the bottom Of the wall Of rocl
issue the .rscl1s Of the mastodon. The,
are almost round, make we'll defined
Impression about an inca or an incl
and a half in the rock and are twenty
two inches across. The Reno Gazette
states that the tracks gave evidence
THAT the animal came over the ground
Lin tremendous hurry and attributes
the observation to LeConte. This must
have been the work Of an imaginative
reporter, as the tracks are regular,
in stride and SHOW no signs of haste.
Where the rock was blasted out they
begin to turn to the left, and one track
recently uncovered is larger than the
rest, as if the mastedon had turned his
foot a few inches without lifting it
from tie earth. The stride is about
SIX feet. These impressions are filed
! With sandstone whicl, is easily dug out
with a pick, leaving Il hollow in the
softer formation.
THE HUMAN TRACKS
Issue, from the wall about ten feet
south and going the same way. They
must have been made at different
time than those of the uastodon, rs
they lie in 4 different qualification and
are filed with softer formation than
sandstone. They are from nineteen to
twrnty-onc inches long and the shape
of the foot is very clearly defined.
There is not in any of the tracks an i'm
preston Of the toes As stated by some
of the papers, and the tracks lead Gle
to suppose that the man wore either
sandals or mGccasins, such Is are still
warn by the Mexican poems or Indians.
Notwithstanding the immense size Of
the feet the stride is not longer than
would be made By a man six feet high.
It is possible that the man ir going
over the mud wore a sandal longer
than his foot Oh the principle OF a
snow shoe and took a longer stride than
usual, as nearly all persons do in travel
ing through or over mud. These tracks
number fifteen, after which they can
not be traced by reason of break in
the formation, but or the west floor of
the quarry about 100 yards away they
can be seen again mingled with many
others.
About 20 feet south are more human
tracks going into the wall. Three of
these have feen uncovered by blasting
since the original discovery. Along
side OF these are tracks of some hoofed
animal, as can be determined by the
fact that the edges are higher than the
surrounding surface, as is invariably
the case when COW or horse pulls its
hoof out of the mud.
A BATTLE OF THE BEASTS.
One of the most interesting features
at this spot is a place near the corner of
the wall, where there is the plain re-
cord Of Il conflict between two beasts,
whose tracks indicate either bears or
hyenas. The two lines of tracks go to
the southwark, and for some distance
seem, as if both were running. just at
the edge Of the wall is the impression
made by the body of the one overpow-
cred By his stronger adversary. The
ground about is torn up, and there are
tracks made in the struggle. |
Some of these tracks show where the |
foot was planted and then caused to |

the edge of the wall is the impression

ground about is torn up, and there are
numberless tracks made in the struggle.
Some of these tracks show where the
foot was planted and then caused to
slide back as if forced in the tussie
The larger animal doubtless here won
the fight, and overDn Wering his weaker
rival, devoured it. This life and death
struggle which took Understanding
to Professor LeConte-either in the
glacial epoch or the pli0cene period, a
date so remote that s0me scientists
place it as far back as hundreds of
thousands of years, is recorded in the
rock, and the evidence held in the en-
brace Of the sandstone through ages to
be read with accuracy at the present
time.
On the floor OF the quarry there can
at present be seen the tracks of the
mastodon, bear, horse, an animal like
the hyena, and bird like the crane Or
stork They all seem 10 head toward
the meadow west Of the prison, where
there must have been sort of water

A Shreveport special of the 10th, to
the Times.Democrat, furnishes the fol-
lowing distressing intelligence respect
ing poung man, who, as the dispatch
states, is we'll known in this and jack
son parishes, and is well connected:
Thursday last, at the county seat of
Upshur county, Texas, one of the foul
est murders in the history of the coun-
ty was committed. 1t seems that Judge
j. j. Lyons was interested in print
ing Office, and had in his employment
a young man formerly from Ouachita
parish by the name of Arthur w. Ash.
ley, whom he discharged on account Of
some disagreement. Ashley threatened
to kill Lyons, and Thursday .sevening
meeting him, pulled his pistol and shot
him dead in his tracks. Ashley Is well
known in Ouachita and jackson par
ishes, and is we'll connected. He passed
through here Thursday night, and was
met by your correspondent Saturday
morning, two days ahead of the officers.
