First Railway Ride.

A young lady, Gays the Wood River
Times, well known on Wood River, who
was born and raised in Idaho and had
never seen steamboat or railway car,
recently left for a trip south, and much
interest was expressed by her friends as
to her first impressions OF the outer
world. She always evinced such an even
demeanor that many friends believed
she would pass as an old traveller, but
letter just received from her escort
proves that young lady, even one Of
Idaho's fairest, and one that can calmly
regard the wild Indian on the war path,
is unequal to the occasion ofealnhy pas
sing through the surprises OF modern
progress.
She became skittish at the approach
of the evening lightning express. with
its great bull's-eye headlight, aud actu
ally praneed when the train ncarsd the
depot and blew long, shrill whistle.
Her friends could not quiet her or coax
her, aud finally, rather than be left,
they blindfolded the young lady, aud by
main force landed her safely on the
train. The letter remarks it was fort
unate that the windows were so small,
as she frequently attempted to get out,
and could not lie convinced that the tel.
egraph poles, the hills aud houses were
not all whirling past her as she sat ia
the car, and every time they crossed a
bridge she shut her eyes, believing the
cars were flying in the air across the
rivers.

AN Exchange says: A firm in
Paris, France, has patented an inven
ton for the instantaneous formation
of steam, which permits tor its use
at once in the cylinder of the engine.
A pump sends the required quantity
of liquid between two plate surfaces,
which are heated, and between which
there is only capillary space. The
liquid spreading in thin layer evap-
crates at once, without going into the
So called spheroidal state, and this
steam acts in the cylinder as fresh

pump being connected with the shaft

NEvADA's FUTURE.


For the past few years our State
has been on the decline, but the COM
ing Summer will probably witness a
grand revival of the mining interest
of Nevada, and, although such pros
porous times as were enjoyed in the
early days, are not looked for, there
will doubtless be some improvement.
From all parts of the State come re-
ports showing that much interest is
still being taken in our mines. Tus-
carora, which at one time was thought
to be dead has awakened to q new
life, aud 10 again classed as bullion
producing camp. The mines of Par
adise Valley are also coming to the
front, and if the reports are correct
will at no distant day be producing
bullion by the ton. These mines,
also were at one time almost aban-
doned, but a few enterprising men
who had faith in them have stuck to
them and will doubtless be rewarded
for their labor. From all points south
and east of here strikes are being
made almost daily, aud some of them
are bound to turn ont we'll. The
Mount Cory mine on the line of the
C. & G. road promises to be one of
the coming bonanzas, and last, but
not least by all means, the down trod.
den camp of Como bids fair tie come
out and rival all others. There was
q time when if you mentioned the
name of Como on the Comstock you
would be laughed at, but that time
has passed and lately great deal of
interest is being taken in the little
camp by Comstockers. We also look
for the time to come when the Carson
river will be lined with mills crushing
the low grade ore that is so abundant
on the Comstock, and hope that at
last the great Sutrs tunnel will be
made some use of to transfer this ore
from the mines to the mills.

THE dismissal of DR.. Dawson

-THE dismissal Of DR.. Dawson
from the Insane Asylum is one of the
most outrageous peices Of jObbery ever
consummated. DR.. Dawson has tend.
ed faithfully to his duties ever since
he has been connected with the Asy-
lum aud no one but the meanest kind
Of chronic fault finders have had any.
thing to say against his management.
1t is simply job put up by the trad
ing Governor, to fulfil a promise he
probably made to further his interests
during the election campaign. A
man who will allow his personal spite
to interfere with his duties is no man
to hold the highest Office in the State,
and the people are beginning to find
out that they made grand mistake
in choosing Jewett Adams to fill this
high position.

--SoME years ago the Duke of
Montpsnsier was charged shameful
sum at a railroad station buffet IN
France. He put the bill with the
money into the hands of the Mayor,
who was at the station to receive him,
and said: "Will you kindly pay what
10 right for my breakfast and give the
balance to the poor" thus skilfully
outwitting the extortioner, Another
extortiouer under almost the same
circumstances Cthe victim being also
French) came off even worse. On his
road to London the Duke of Niyernon,
accredited Ambassador there passed
q night at the cbiefinn at Canterbury,
and his bill was $3.50 The Duke
paid it, but so indignant were the
Car terburians at what they deemed a
stigma on their city, that they urged
him to bring an action. He declined; ;
but the inn, the chief one, was boy
cotted not merely by the townspeople
but by the neighboring gentry. The
greedy landlord became bankrupt and
died in London, a waiter at a Covent
Garden tavern. There is moral in
these statements of extortion which
may have home applications. F.

THE Apache Indians still con
tinue their acts of violence and muir
der in Arizona and Mexico, and the
militia seem to be powerlsss to stop
them. It is time that some decisive
move was made to sit down on the
noble red man, and teach him that he
cannot ride over the new settlers rough
shod. Of late it has become so that
every few months there is an Indian
outbreak. The savases are furnished
with the finest kind of arms for the
purpose $50 it is said of gaining
living by hunting. They are also
given provisions and clothing, and
when these are gone and they think
they ought to have more, they go Gu
the war-path, and murder half
hundred or more people before they
are subdued. A treaty is then made
which lasts but a few months when
the same thing is repeated. The au
