WHAT CAN THE NATTER RE :?

Probably no newspaper writer has
written as many and tough yarns, in
his time, as Dan de guile, of the Vir.
g,nia (Nev.) Enterprise. A few years
back. when Dan felt pretty we'll, he
filed column after column with the
most improbable stories imaginable,
which were told with all the solemnity
Of Gospel truth; but of late Dan has
kind Of "let down. and confined
Himself more closely to facts than was
his wont. The cause for this is prob.
ably Dams advancing age; but, what.
ever it may be, the fact remains that
Dan has recently become quite re!i-
able itemizcr. Not only this, but it
actually maddens him to see Others
following in his sinful ways. Hear
him:
Those who try TO obtain a correct,
rational account Of the Indian troubles
IN Arizona through the Geographic
dispatches. newspaper reports and in.
tervlews with Indian chiefs and COW.
boys, must soon arrive at the conclu.
sion that in that region are concen.
trated most Of the nickle.plated, case.
hardened, frst-prcmium.gold- medal
liars in the United States. For the
past three months wires, newspapers
ana tongues have been going, and to-
day less Is known about Indian affairs
in that Territory than when reports
upon them first began to arrive. All.
iona is a regular bonanza of liars.
with not an ounce Of waste from the
grass roots down.
Can it be that good old Dan is get.
ting jealous OF his brother quilts: Or
Is he simply mad ut them for their sin.

Marrying an Editor.

Yes, Pm Mrs. Snow, an editors

the length of his arm, and reads while

quaker meeting of an hours length, l
break the stiffness by saying:
"Mr. Snow, did YOU order that COIL

"Did you order that coal spoke to
you about?"

forgot all about it. 1t shall come to-
morrow"
Another hours silence, which is
relieved by the baby's crying, and
rather liking the noise, l make no eff.
fort to quiet him.
"My DEAR" says Mr.. Snow, after
it has cried minute or SO, "you had
better give the baby some catnip tea
to quiet him; he t'oubles me-"
The baby is still. Another hour
passed without a breath of noise. BE-

gagged in his papers that he does no,

midnight he comes to bed and lust as

as possible and try to still him. Then
another begins to scream at the top of

but to awake Snow, so say:

cries, "What, Tom, more copy?"

ORADO To THE FRONT,

Narrow Gauge gulch is slowly but
surely coming to the front. About a
year ago the claims near Orado and
other gulches tributary to that town
hogan changing hands. First, the
Marrow Gauges and Bannock went to
Mr.. FArwell. the Chicago merchant
prince; then the Robert Emmett and
Forest Creek went to an Ohio com.
pany; the Orado group followed;
next, another group the name Of
which we cannot recall at present;
and recently tho Park mine has passed
to the control Of capitalists. Tho pur.
chasers of these claims will Of course
want to realize on their investment.
and to that end will work their claims.
Some of them have done so already.
while Others have been holding off,
and sort of feeling their way by look
Ing at what their neighbors were do
ing. Recently, however, the Narrow
Gauge company began the erection of
concentrating works, and these were
completed day before yesterday, and
started up to-day. This has Infused
new life into the camp, and the an
nouncement is made that representa-.
tives OF other companies interested
near Orado are about to come out to
tnake arrangements for the vigorous
development OF their properties.
If this is done we will be called
upon to chronicle new strikes in the
claims worked, and Orado will "boom;"
for the place, being just over the
Bullion divide, is believed by compe.
tent experts to be on a continuation of
the main Bullion lode, and if this is a
fact there will be several rich mines
discovered there before the country is
much older.

In the Sccoud, Third, Fourth, Fifth aud

all of them. In the Seventh there was a
sharp struggle which excited interest all
over the city. A very persistent effort
was made to beat Select Councilman Geo.

Frank X Everts, but it failed. Ing the
Eighth there were numerous candidates
for all the offices and big vote
came out. Good feeling prevailed and the
winners had decided majorities. In the
