The Christmas tree for the benefit
of the scholars Of the N. E. Sunday
school, made very creditable APP
pearance, and while it was not as rich
Iy ladened as some are, it was fully
appreciated by the little ones, and it
was for them it was arranged. In a
year from now the school will be bet
ter able for such an occasion. The
church was tastefully decorated with
evergreens and notices, and the choir
rendered several excellent pieces, all
of which combined to make the first
entertainment in the new church a
very pleasant one,

The Attorneys Fight.

Two of our prominent attorneys got
into a little jangle Of words over the
postponement of case before Judge
Clough one day last week, in which
the lie, without any qualifications was
given Subsequently the aggrieved
party in open court demanded an
apology, which was refused and but
few words were INDUCED in at that
time and place On Monday the
PARTIES met on the sidewalk near DR..
Murdock's office, when the one who
had used the Objectionable language
was again given to understand he must
apologize or fight, and as he would not
do the former, the aggreived party
took satisfaction with his brawny fist,
which suddenly and emphatically clos
ed the eye Of his opponent. But two
or three blows were struck, when they
were parted and the battle was end
ed. 1t Is not genllemanly to engage
in a street fight, neither, on the other
hand, Is it gentlemanIy for one man to
publically denounce another rs Il liar as
in this case, and 70 a great extent the
second party in this case might be
pardoned for taking the way he did
to defend his character and good name.
The TIMES is very sorry that such an
episode should have occurred in our
town, and as we can net see how the
publication Of their names can do any
particular good, we withhold them, Al

A Close Shave.

tFrom thu L.a yegas Gaxette.)
A miner in the hills near Socorro, New
Mexico, made a lucky strike in q won
derful manner lately. Two weeks ago,
while tramping over the rocks, the pros
peotor suddenly discovered that his
haversack was on fire, caught probably
from the condemnation of the suns rays
BY prospecter's glass which he carried
in his kit. Now that hnversack con-
tanned about six pounds of blasting pow
der, and our hero dropped the bundle
aad got out of the reach as fast as his
legs would carry him. The bundle of
caps fell into crevice in the rocks, and
the powder soon exploded. The pros
pector returned moufnfrlly to gather up
such of his effects as were unipjured by
the explosion, when something in the
appearance of the shattered rock struck
his eye and he examined it closely-it
was horn silver. The now jubilant
miner located claim at once, which he
called Close Shave" and in less than a
week disposed of one.third of his interest
at $4,000. The name of the "honest
son of the pick and shovel" is John

County, and receives the congratulations
of his friends in modest manner. John

The Pew From the Pulpit.

The sleeper. He will be there. Per-
adventure he leaneth his chin upon q
cane, so that, when the moment of deep
and profound slumber cometh upon him.
his chin slippeth off and with the bang OF
his head upon the pew in front of him
he is awaked. Or, the slumberer may
sit bolt upright and nod in time to his
deep and regular breathing. Only when
you cast your eyes upon him, the watch
full wife of his bosom stabs him with her
elbow, and he glareth upon the congre-
cation as one who should say: He that
sayeth slept the same is liar and a
villain and horse-thief." Or, if he be
so that he leaneth his head back until
the lid thereof falleth down between his
shoulders, and he playeth phantistic
tunes with his nose, insomuch that the
boys in the gallery make merry over the
same, then it is hazardous to awaken
this slumberer right suddenly, because
he dreameth of divers things and sayeth
to the tithing man, who shaketh him up,
Hey? bill ha! yes, yes, all right! I'm
up" And thus is the congregation
much scandalized. But if he foldeth his
handkerchief over the back of the pew
in front, and boweth his head devoutly
upon the same, even in that moment
when the text is pronounced, then will
the sleeper trouble no one, but will
slumber sweetly on until the time of the
benediction; and he will awaken re-
freshed and smiling, and he will extol
the sermon and magnify the preacher.
He is the old-timer from Sleepy follow.

HOW to Tell Good Butter.

Mr.. Robert Hall, an Ohio butter in
spector, says that where butter is prop
erly churned, both as to time and tenn
perature, it becomes firm with very little
working, and it is tenacious; but its
most desirable state is waxy, when it is
easily nodded into any shape, and may
be drawn out o considerable length with
out breaking. 1t is then styled gilt
edge. It is only in this state that butter
possesses that rich nutty taste and smell,
and shows up rich golden yellow color
which imParts SO high degree of pleas
ure when eating it and which increases
its value many fold. It is not always
necessary, when it smells sweet, to taste
butter in judging it. The smooth unc.
tuous feel in rubbing little between the
finger and thumb expresses at once its
rich quality; the nutty smell and rich
aroma Indicate similar taste; and the
bright golden glistening cream .colored
surface shows its height of cleanliness.
It may be necessary at times to use a
tryer, or use it until you become an ex-
pert in testing by taste, smell and rub
bing. S. DairyDaan,

it been depicted as fiend which ceaselessly tor
ments Its victims. Though 1t cannot be driven from
its stronghold the stomach, by ordinary means, 1t
may be anrihilated with Hostetter's Stomach Bit
ters. Weakness of the digestive organs lies at the
root Of dyspepsia. The natural chemical solvent of
the food is insuflicienuy secreted by the organ
whence 1t takes its source, and the raw material
upon which 1t should act lies like lump Of lead in
the stomach, fermenting and causing heartburn,
and the manifold tortures from which dyspephcs

which promotes sufficient secretion of the gastric

The labor of this investigation was
dreadful. The doctor talked and the
women screamed. Tine enough was

struggles that Miss Sutherland should

he positively declined to go unless I
went with him. Further solicitude on
Miss Sutherland's behalf it was not in
DR.. Manning's programme to bestow.
Hand in hand, and assisted by sturdy
peasant woman, we scrambled down that
horrible precipice. The shrine of the
Persian god, cave with arches and
walls of brick, was passed, but no sign
OF Miss Sutherland's presence.
Presently, looking over small cliff,
we saw the young woman half sitting,
half lying, on rock.
/" Is anything the matter ?" the doctor
called out.
"No, nothing-not exactly" The
words were exactly those Miss Suther-
land would have liked to utter in her
| firmest tone. The tone she did utter
them in was one that denoted an agony
of suppressed pain.
| The doctor heard it quite as well as I
did, but he did not move.
"Will you come up, or shall I come
down to you?"
By this time we could see the white
drawn face. The doctor took two steps
forward andstopped.
Miss Sutherland, Spartan that she was,
had borne all she could bear. Both
arms were stretched out, and the weak
est kind of voice answered.:
!" cannot come. Come to me-"
There was really nothing-not ex-
actly F" the matter with Miss Sutherland
but broken ankle and dislocated
shoulder.
What piece of work it was carving
her up that dreadful hill. And how ever
did we manage to get her all the way
back to the pension without killing her?
Tears stood in the doctors eyes as he
handed her first to one and then the 9th
er OF the stout peasants that helped him
with his burden. That was the ouly
sign of weakness on either part.
The doctor manages his wife; there is
no doubt about that. Just precisely
what system of discipline wasinaugurat-
ed among the lemon groves of Capri.
when Miss Sutherland's ankle was fully
mended and her shoulder settled in its
right place, 1 don't pretend to under
stand. It is all very we'll for him, but
as for me, when undertake my next
charge, 1 hope she will be a common

Nickel Mines in Nevada.

lfIom Lne sacramento Record UniOn.l
AS the discovery of nickel on this coast
has opened new field of mining indus
try, and one which has every Indication
of becoming equal to the Comstock in
richness, the Record concluded to gather
the facts. In this discovery, as in hun
dreds of other great finds, these mines
have been lying for years within plain
sight OF stage road, where people con-
stantly travel, without even netice.
Many samples of the ore have been sent
to different assayers for copper, but none
ever took the trouble to analyze the rock
until it was sent to this city. In 1881
samples of this ore were sent to Charles
Bell for copper assay. Upon exsmina-
ton it was found TO contain large per
cent. of nickel. More of the ore being
secured, it was analysed, proving the
first result. Upon this showing, Will
liam a. Bell was sent to discover the
locations, and succeeded in finding the
richest and most valuable nickel prop
erty ever discovered. The discovery
being kept as secret as possible, little
was known of its extent until recently,
The property is located in the
northern portion of Churchill,
County, Nevada. The property has
been well prospected, and the largest
bodies of this mineral exposed that have
ever been known. The nickel ores of
Pennsylvania average but two per cent.
They are reduced on the ground to fif-
teen per cent, and sent to Camden, N.
j., where they are again reduced and
the metal extracted. The nickel found
In Oregon has also been opened, but to
what extent cannot be ascertained.
Thirty tons of the Nevada nickel were
sent to London, which graded 20. per
cent. These mines are the only ones
yet discovered that carry uniformly the
three distinct characters, viz: Arseniu-
ret, which is grayish metallic red;
arseniate, beautiful apple green; and
arsenite, having dark metallic lustre.
