RRY CREEK, NEV., SATURDAY, JANUARY g. 1883


Speaking roughly, about three
fourths, by weight, of the body of
man Is constituted by the fluid he
consumes, and the remaining fourth
by the solid material he appropriates.
1t is therefore no figure OF speech to
say that food makes the man. We
might even put the case in stronger
light and affirm that man is his food.
II is strictly and literally true that "a
man who drinks beer thinks beer.o
We make this concession to the teeto-
talers, and will add that good sound
beer IL by no means bad thought
factor, Whatever may be the intellect
ual value OF the commodity common
~ sold and consumed under that
name. IL cannot obviously be mat
ter OF Indifference what man eats
and drinks. lie Is, in fact, choosing
MS animal and moral character when
he selects his food. 1t is impossible
for him to change his inherited nature
simply because notifications of de-
veiopinent occupy more than an inli-
vidnal life, but he can help TO make
tho particular stock TO which he be-
longs more or less beery or ileshy or
watery, or so on, by the way he feeds.
We know the effect the feeding ofani-
mails has on their temper and very
natures; how the dog fed ON raw meat
and chained up so that he cannot
work of the superfluous nilrogenized
material by exercise becomes a saw
age beast, while the same creature
fed on bread and milk would be tame
as lamb. The same law OF results
- applicable TO man, and every living
organ.am j, propagaled Tin its kindn
with a phs steal an1 mental likeness.
This is the nnderly.ng efIaeiple OF
development. Happily tue truth is
beginning, though slowly and imper-
fectlv, 10 iind recognition L tbas long
been denied. Il Is possible that in
the natural desire 10 secure the best
and purest supplies Of food and drink
for man We are pushing matters
little 10 extremes, and becoming RI
diculous. Utopia Is a long way of,
aud "Hygeia' has not vel been built.
II is, however, desirable that We
should aim high and make the teach
ings Of physiological science the pre-
cepts OF our daily life and conduct.
Ne may no; be ablu 10 reach onr ideal
but progress vii lee advanced by
striving to make iis attainment an
object. "What TO eat, drink and
avoid Is rational proposition; and
II SOME Of US are becoming little un-
reasonable in the attempt 70 solve 1t,
AT least We are on the right road, and
ought In be encouraged rather than
abasred by the not nnkindly criticism
our endeavors are calling forth

Not Far Behind.

In the matter of letter-writing the
people of Nevada are not far behind
those of the older States OF tho Union.
In 1851 l,0G3,S letters were sent
through the mails from this State, or
an average # 3.15i to the man, il the
statement Of Mr.. Anderson in re-
cent speech in Congress be accepted as
fact. Massachusetts, which prides
herself on her high standard of in
telligence, only averaged $3.50 to the
man, and Illinois 2.229. These figures
were drawn out with a view of Great
ing better mail facilities for the West
ern States and Territories, and serve
to SHOW that the intelligence OF the
extreme West is on par with that Of
the East, II not In advance of it, for
almost everybody in the West knows
how 10 write. II is good point
against the narrow economy practiced
by the postal authorities In sparsely
settled regions IN limiting the service.

Mans Inhumani.y 10 Woman.

At San Francisco last week
Charles Pape shot his wife through
the head and then blew out his own
brains. The murdered wife was not
living with the husband at the time
and divorce suit was pending.
Though earning SO per day the hus-
band would do nothing for the sup
port Of his family. He had even taken
from them half a sack OF flour and
given 1t to a neighbor, and had car
ried of the furniture and sold it to a
secondhand store for a trine. The
woman left him aflef the spoilation OF
her home; indeed, nothing was left
with which she could remain but four
bare walls.

In San Francisco Mexican dollars
are quoted at 81 to 80 cents. WhyY
Are they not intrinsically worth rs
much a. the standard dollar? Those
financiers who claim that money is
regulated by its intrinsic value, and
not by Legislative enactment, should
explain this discrepancy.

OUR LITTLE BOY.
A Story of Infantile Suffering truly
as told by his Parents.

Mr.. Editor.-We feel it our duty to
write you what the CUTICURA remedies
have done for our little boy, who has
been terribly afflicted with Salt Rheum,
Scrofula, and Erysipelas ever since ne
was born, and nothing we could give him
helped him until we tried CUTICURA,
which, after using quite q qssntity,, be-
gan to help him and gradually cured him,
until he is now IS fair as any child. HIS
body was completely covered, and his
fsce and hands swelled very badly. we
had no comfort with him: it was so much
work to take csre of hin. and he suffered
so. We began to treat him when he was
Is months old. giving him at fret 10
drops of the CUTICURA RRsoLvENT at q
time, bathing IN wsrm water and CUTI-
CURA SOAP, and applying CUrICURA
carefully to the entire body. He is now
ga years old and is perfectly we'll. We
have not written before, because We
thought it might appear sgain; but it has
not, and we are very thankful.

IN Impending Rate Ma1..

Chicago, THE Tribune says the
conflict between the Union Pacific and
Denver and RIO Grande regarding Cal
afornis passenger business is. becoming
more serious every day, and it is gen
orally believed an open rate war between
the roads will break out before many
days have passed. A few weeks ago the
Denver and Rio Grande gave notice thst
passengers for California over its line
wo Id have the privilege of visiting
Denver aud Lesdvile free OF chsrge.
This it was learned was done in retalia-
tioA for the Union Pacific running fast
trains between Omaha and Ogden, and
allowing passengers to visit Salt Lake
City free ofextrs charge. Now the Union
Pacific hits back by announcing that
passengers for California over its line
will also be accorded the privilege of
going to Denver and Leadvilie and re-
turn free of charge. This action will of
couraa give the Union Pacific again the
advantage and there is now no other way
open for the Denver aud Rio Grande 10
get even except to make a large reduc-
ton in rates which OF course will compel
the other lines to do likewise.

TELEGRAP.aIC
The photographers Strike.

New York, 6.-The Times editorial
this morning says: ''It is likely to weaken
the brotherhood to call out railroad ope-
rstors. To call them nov would SAVIOR
of compulsion, as it is clear that they are
not inclined of their own notion to leave
their instruments.
The Sun SAWS the Brotherhood is wrong
and uJjustifab!e, AID ssys the fact that
they have ordered them out amounts to
declaration that tina telegraph strike
has failed.
Chicago, From the bsst advices
obtainable it appears tha5 very few
operators baYe left the employ of
the Wabash and Chicago aud Alton
roads It was eXpsctpd the full effect Of
the striks would De felt at noon to-day,
on these roads, ut according 10 the YER
sion OF officials in this city, nUt to exceed
ten are reported ito have quit their posts
Oh both these lines.
New York, 7.-Wastern Union cffi-
Gals says the cable box at Casca was
destroyed last night, and the cables cut;
that sweDty-six Mutual Union wires we're
rendered useless at Carsd4le, and that
the American Union and Atlantic ard
Pacific routes to Boston were interrupted
with the evident intention OF preventing
Boston operators from getting full re-
ports ofthe Sulliysn-Slade affair OF Mad
isau Square Garden. One thousand dol
lars reward is now offered for the arrest
and conviction of any person tempering
With the wires.
Pittsbarg, Noon today was the
time set for the strike of operators on the
Pittsburg division of the Baltimore and
Ohio railroad; but up to 100 this after
noon Superintendent King reported no
Interruption TO business and all men a.

locally this morning regarding the lele-
grsphers' strike, and at 1890 pm no
Withdrawals mad been reported on the

Society Generals.

Washington, There is going to be q
funny fight in army circles when Sheridan
comes to Washington, said a war depart
ment msn-Schofeld, who is now at the
head Of the department OF the Pacific, and
Pope, who is at the head Of the depart
ment OF the Missouri, under Sheridan,
will both try 10 stay where they are.
Neither of them wants to remove to
Chicago. Sehofeld is one of the biggest
men socially on the Pacific slope, and
Pope ia the King Bee in Kansas and
Missouri. Neither could cut very wide
swath in Chicago, for very long time,
and neither cares to go there for that
reason. Hancocs is out of the fight APP
parently nobody showing 8 disposition TO
disturb him. Sheridan will not come
here until the first of October, but the
fight against removal to Chicago will be-
gin several weeks before that date.
Entering upon another part Of the sub
ject the war department man said the
carpet knights who have been attached to
Sherman and who have been stationed
here for several years are greatly dis
turbed by reason of the impending
change. Several of them have been 10

probable that several OF Sharmsn's

several who will have 10 resume their

the cell. Knocked him down, released
himself from q chain. which fastened
him to the wall of the prison, and then,
shackied with irons, turned the kew on
his keeper and escaped. A great alarm
was raised. States Attorney Veitch

er his shoulde a widebrimmed slouch
hat was pc rched on the back of his
head, his pants were tucked in bis
boots and his hands were exploring
the very depths OF his pockets.

FATALLY GoEED.-Tbo Monterey,
Va. COURIER Of last week contains on
interesting account Of u desp rate en-
counter with n bull by two men in Pen.
dleton county. All. Jones went TO a
Mr.. Hammers, who lives about 6 miles
from Franklin, TO get bull which he
bad just purchased from the latter gen.
tleman. He went into the field To drive
the animal, aad after striking him sew
eral times on the nose, the beast bowed
his heal AMI rushed upon Jones, who
ran for dear life and escaped over a
fence. Mr. Hammer then oaid he would
go In and drive tho animal out, that be-
ing acquainted. he wouldn't hurt him,
but after striking the bull the third
lime. he made lunge at the man,
knocking him down and goring him.
Jones ran rapidly TO tho rescue and by
q heavy blow caused the animal to
jump TO one side, when another bull in
the same field came up and the two
commenced fighting, enabling Jones to
make his escape and carry the sen seles5
form of Hammer to place OF safety.
1t is thought the laLter's wounds may
prove fatal.
