The DenYsr Expo.Ition.

From A. E. Cheney, Esq. who s.aid
q day in Denver on his return home
from trip to tho Eastern States. the
Eureka Sentinel learns that SO far all
tho ores from Nevada displayed at tho
Exposition can be covered by . blanket.
1t seems that ihsre is . hitch in the
transportation by which all the ores
sent from this State to the Exhibition
have been stopped ut Ogden, for want
OF free freight on the Union Pacific
Railroad. This is n little bit singular,
inasmuch as the Union Pacific was pro-
fuse in piOfssS-ons OF iberality, and
Was first TO offer free transportation to
further the interests Of the Exposition.
Mr.. Cheney tells US that on every hand
he heard inquiries about Nevada, the
reputation of which rs great mining
community is world wide. Mr.. Cheney
says that one would be surprised to OH
serve what slight knowledge the crowd
assembled in Denver have Of mining,
AMI how eager they are Tor information
On tho subject. He believes at if

maids retired moderately early. but the
other one kept hItt NJ back and forth
between her berth aLd the dressing
room until every boly got mad. Finally
she went 10 the dressing room with
her toothbrush, ana after scrubbing
her teeth pretty thoroughly she came
back to retire. In order TO avoid any
error she had pinned u piece OF paper
on the curtain Of Eer berth, which
piece OF paper one of the California
girls had changed to the curtain which
cou;Iinsd 'he Montana miner.
When the old mad returned. shs had
