The Pioche weekly record. [volume] (Pioche, Nev.) 1877-1900, 1883-02-03
AND PANACA DOTS

Fred GouDe is expected IN BulilonVille
by the 10th.
Professor Burton, formerly OF Salt
Lake City, has opened a singing school
in Bullionville.
Messrs. Godbe and Hampton will pay
this section a visit in few weeks, when
they will take into consideration the re-
duction of low grade ores.
The furnace started up on the 4th of
January, and turned out for the 81 re.
naming days over II car loads, or 3, 740
bars, of bullion, which is a remarkably
good showing.
The warm days that we have been en-
joying during the week has spoiled our
beautiful sheet of ice; but so it is in this
planet of ours, every pleasure has its
accompanying pain.
The young man who can induce girl
to accompany him for ride is indeed
happy, but he who can talk two into a
one.horse conveyance is doubly so and
in some countries would be made Bishop
of.
A badly mashed youth was observed a
few mornings since. diligently digging a
large hole in the skating pond. When
questioned as to what he was doing he
replied that his girl had fallen on that
spot the evening before, and he thought
the ice would taste so much nicer in hot
weather for lemonade punches.
The skating pond close by our village
attracted large number of people on
Sunday as the day was all that could be
desired by the most inveterate weather
growler. The ice was even and slippery
in the forenoon, but as evening drew
nigh it was not so good, in consequence
of the large number of pointed stars
made thereon by some of our girls.
When a man loses his head, metrically
speaking, over what he considers the
fairest of Gods creation, he is to be
pittied indeed; but when he gets mashed
on a frail piece of calico, as is the case
with one of the Bullionville fathers, and
then threatens to commit suicide because
she gives him the lash, his proper place
is behind the bars of the Reno Institu.

| Nick Miller is about to issue chal
lenge to Capt. Bogardus, the crack rifle
shot, and Anthony Mcmahon offers te
bet 81 900 that he will win. Nick has
been taking lessons along the margin o.
the slough for some time back, and ha.
become so expert with the shotgun that
he has to hire a couple of Indians tt
pack the duck and snipe that he daily
slaughters.
There was dance at Social Hall, Fri
day evening, and although the music wa,
wretched, and the attendance small
everybody seemed to enjoy themselves
the ladies having danced until completely
exhausted. The worst feature abou
these dances is the fact that they ar,
supperless, hungry go-to-bed ones. Now
we think that the boys ought to try anG
devise means whereby they could treat
their lady friends to refreshments, a.
dancing is a fatiguing pastime, and ;
good appetizer.
The old saying that "true love nevel
runs smooth" was verified Sunday even
ing in Bullionville, in way that cam'
near ending in tragedy. On the even
ing in question, the successful sutton t,
the hand of the lady in the case, wa
talking matters over with her in a lodg
ing house, when rival No. /, put in al
appearance with double barrel shotgun
and ordered No. to vacate the premise
on pain of instant death. The order, @
course, was complied with, as shotgun
are trumps in such cases, and so rest
the matter for the present.
| We attended the Young Mems Chris
tian, Mutual Improvement Association
on Sunday evening, at the village school
house, and passed couple of pleasan
hours with the brethren. County Com
missioner Ronnow spoke to some lengt
on the truths of the gospel as taught b
the Latter-Day Saints, and freely Dor
testimony as to the light revealed unit
him. Bishop Lee followed by offerin
some good advice to the young member
of the flock, whom he cautioned to al
stain from the use of intoxicating liquors
for old King Alchohol was worse tina
any human slave owner, inasmuch as h
left them to shift for themselves in tn
} very worst possible condition.
