Returned.

For the past two months M.
Cohn has been virtually like a
pendulum between Carson and
the Bay. He brings up new
stock of fancy goods. On each
occasion he appears to miscalcu-
late the purchasing capacity of
Carson, for he seldom brings up
enough to last over a week, yet
he generally has tie sidewalk
blocked with boxes. Mr.. COIN
is a heavy advertiser, and this
is what keeps him on the jump.

Pure Milk.

Mr.. j. w. Duffy is now sup
plying Carson with something
of a novelty, to wit A.: pure milk.
He has the largest milk route
in the city and his large patron
age is due to the fact that he
sells no swill fed milk and gives
good measure. The secret of
success in the milk business lies
in giving honest measure and
selling milk that cream will rise
on in the morning. Duffy has
hit it.

When a Democratic speaker

at the Opera House the noise of

the floor of the gallery could be

PAT HOLLANDS FALL.
A Stage Mishap Changes HIS
Whole Life,

| " ~
the most respected man in the
State. He had the reputation OF
being a dead shot with pistol.
OF course this accomplishment
made him feared by everybocy
and there was no man in Vir-
ginia So bold as to cross him in
public. Pat acquired his repu-
tation by shooting on the stage,
and could knock an apple off his
sons head with an accuracy and
carelessness which combined to
impress the public far more than
the manner in which the pains
taking William Tell performed
the feat with an arrow. Finally
Pat secured q young lady who
would allow an apple to be shot
off her fiaXen roll, and when
Pat executed the feat he would
throw his keen eye at the girl
and then poll his orbs up into
the gallery, and without looking
at his mark, send a bullet
through the fruit. This was put
down on the bills as "Pat Hol-
lands psychological feat of shoot
ing from memory" and drew
crowded houses. One night he
advertised to shoot apples from
twelve young ladies' heads in
succession and only take enc
look at the crowd. Piper's
Opera House was packed with
men at a dollar a head, and
when the curtain rose twelve
immaculate ballet dancers were
in line along the wings, each
with an apple on her head. Pat
stepped to the footlights and
bowed amid tremendous APP
plause. He had a siX-shooter
in each hand and the stage man.
aper announced that he would
shoot the last six apples with his
left hand. Casting his eye
along the line, he took a long
breath, a steady position, and
then faced the audience. Lift
ing his revolver he began to
shoot in rapid succession and the
apples began to fly out of sight
amid the breathless silence of
the audience. The curious part
of the performance, however,
lay in the fact that by the time
Pat had fred six shots all the
apples had disappeared, yet he
kept right on banging away
with his second weapon from
his left hand amid roars of
laughter and derisiOn. To cap
the climax two apples got tan
gled together and remained |
dangling from the edge of a
scene in plain sight of the audi
ence. The trick was at once APP |
parent. Each apple had fine |
thread attached, and at the shot |
was jerked quickly out of sight. |
The supes behind the scenes
who pulled the strings got con-
fused at Pats rapid firing and
half the apples disappeared be-
fore the time. Two were |
snatched off Simultaneously and
the strings overlapping in the |
air brought the apples together,
where they hung to the edge of
the scene, the strings being on
each side. This ended Hol- |
lands career as a public soloist |
on the pistol, and the public
gradually came to look upon
him as an ordinary mortal. Soon |
after this he got into a street
row in Phoebe and fred twelve
shots in a densely populated por- /
ton of the city without killing
a man. But for attempting to
do too much at once, he might
have gone to Congress from this
State years ago.

THE STAR ROUTE THIEVES.

Judge Wylie Lectures the StenOgraphers
WASHINGTON, Dec. 18.-In the star
route case a question came mp on the ap.
plcation made by the defendants coun-
sci on Friday TO have access to copiies
of the report Of the trial as printed daily
at the Government Printing Office.
Mr.. Merrick said the governments
counsel made contract with the stenOg-
raphers to furnish the report at twenty
five cents for each folio, with the stipula-
tions that reporters be entitled to twenty
copies daily, and have the privilege to
contract with the other side to furnish them
copies. If the agreement was made the
government rate would be reduced to fif-
teen cents.
After a statement by Mr.. Wilson, of
counsel for the defendants, the motion
was Overruled. The Judge referred to the
large amounts of money received bv the
stenographers for reporting the last trial,
and said they were paid at the rate of
from $3.50 to 5000 day, four or five times
the pay of any Judge of the court.
Mr.. Davidge said that printed copies
had been offered to the defense at twenty
five cents folio,
The Judge said the demand was Op-
pressiye. The stenOgraphers must be
content with fair compensation or they
could not be accommodated in court and
must do business outside the bar. no mat
ter what contract they had made. He
gave them till tomorrow to decide what
they would do. He also said il ought to
be the endeaYOr of the court. the Jury and
even the counsel to have the case
fairly and impartially tried, as though
there had never been trial before. and as
though the art of printing had never been
discovered. He thought the difficulty
arose from the mistaken views of the re-
pOrters, who thought that being in the
court room under authority of the govern
ment, they could demand their own price.
They would see that they occupied no
such position,
Mr.. Bliss then resumed his address.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 1S.-The special

to his observations concerning the com
missions plan of cOnfining the channel,
and thus improving navigation. He
thought it impracticable unless the work
of protecting the banks with mattresses
could be done simultaneously, though he
admitted that the plan seemed to him to be
the only one that promised improvement.
He did not think the levees of the slightest
use to navigation. The whole tendency
of his testimony was against the plan of
narrowing the river as being impractical
bic. On the subject of outlets he said he
believed they would be ofgreat use to carry
off flood water and that they would not

pointed, whose duty it shall be to employ
suitable legal counsel and to prosecute
with the full force of this association all
persons, firms or corporations, wholesale
or retail, engaged in such manufacture or
sale of limitations Of or substitutes for our
goods.
ReSOlred, That the sum of $25, 900, or so
much of the same as may be necessary,
be appropriated for the carrying into effect
of the above resolutions.

Mr.. Parnell estimated that $4,000. 900
