THE VERY LATEST.

Those of our Democratic friends
who are buoying up false hopes on
the ability of the "old ticket to
sweep everything before them, may
make up their minds to vote for some
one else after reading the following
from the Austin ReoeiAe of recent
date: ave have read much about
Tilden's bad health, but always be-
lieved it greatly exaggerated by papers
afraid of his candidacy for President,
We have it direct from gentleman
who is now in Austin, that it is fact,
however This gentleman called upon
him lately upon business and it be-
came necessary for Mr.. Tilden to sign
his name to a document, His right
hand shook with the palsy so badly
that he had to grasp it with his left
hand in order to steady it enough to
write his name. We believe our in
formant firmly and if he will permit
us we will give his name to Mr. TIL
den's admirers in Nevada"

NEvADA,s TAXABLE PROPERTY

The following interesting statement
of Nevada's taxable property is taken
from the Reno Journal. The figures
given for Esmeralda County include
the portion cut off by the segregation
scheme. The amount of property de
tached, as shown by Judge Murphy's
order in another column, is $2G3,271.
The increase of total valuation over
last year is $250,S50 31-within
$12,420 go of the amount detached,
and more than half of the State gain.
This increase is mainly in the middle
and southern part of the county, and
is principally brought about by the
building of the Carson u Colorado
Railroad As there is no apparent
reason why the march of improvement
should not continue, the probability
is that next year will find Esmeralda
County with a much larger valuation
of property than before the landslide
Act was passed.
Annexed is a statement showing the
amounts of taxable property in the
several counties, as returned by the
County Assessors to the State Con-
troller, for the years 1882 and 1888:

WYOMING has the honor to have
produced jury worthy of the better
and purer days" Speaking of the
verdict in the Donovan murder case,
the Rawlings Journal says that when
the jury first retired to their room after
the case was closed, they all knelt
down and prayed that God might aid
them in rendering just and righteous
verdict, They then balloted, the vote
standing eight for conviction and four
for acquittal. After discussing the
situation awhile they prayed again and
took another ballot, the result being
ten to two for conviction. The third
ballot resulted in verdict for murder
in the first degree. The jury then knelt
again and prayed that if they had erred
in judgment God might intervene and
stay the hand of justice.

COUNTIES.

AS will be seen, the returns for this
year are greater than are those for last
year. This does not show that Nevada
is going to the bad quite so fast as
some of our chronic croakers pretend
to think. There are localities, of
course, that are temporarily depressed
so will there always be-but the
State, as a whole, is financially solid.
The increase for 1883 is $4SS,321 81,
being within a few dollars of half a
million. The Counties of Washoe,
Humboldt, Elko, Churchill, Ormsby,
Lyon, Eureka and Esmeralda show an
increase, while Story, Douglas, White
Pine, Nye, Lander and Lincoln have
fallen off from last year. The next
Legislature will find that seventy five
cents will tie sufficient rate for the
State tax. f'0

THE Postmaster.Gener is already
calculating on deficiency of three
million dollars in the receipts of the
Department, as a result of the new
postal law. Let him make another
sweeping reduction all along the line,
commencing with himself. Nearly all
cheapening of benefits to the public
result disastrously, as they almost in
variably compel reduction in salaries
to make both ends meet.

pressly to see the little man Arriving BY mis-.
chance too late for the last public exhibition,
they told the notary at the place of exhibition
that he had some chance Of seeing Tom Thumb
at the hotel whence the Barnum company were
soon to depart. He came. however even there.
too late, and being shown to Tom Thumbs for.
mer apartment he found in the stting-r room q

of the evanishment Of the former tenant, or OF
the installment of the later one, he knocked at
the door.

EnOch Arden's True Story.
From the Cincinnati Saturday Night

from the CINCINNATI Saturday Night.
When Enoch Arden came home after that
memorable and disastrous voyage which ship
wrecked him and his hopes he crept up the
street to his old home, as Tennyson informs us.
and looked in the window. There he saw
Philip Ray and Annie, his wife, and their
child, all seated around the hearth cracking
walnuts.
The whole bitter truth came upon him with
terrible force. Annie. supposing Enoch to be
dead, had married Philip, so as to have
home for herself and child and q man about the
honse in case Of tramps. 1t was sad coming
back for Enoch. and he was mad about it. Not
80 much because Philip had married his wife,
1or there were plenty more wives to be had;
not because his child had learned to cali
another man pa" though that was bitter
pill, inasmueh as the child looked little like
Philip anyhow.
Neither Of these things worried him half so
much as to note that Philip was wearing his
(EnOch's) clothes. With a menacing gesture
Enoch was Just about to dash into the house
and annihilate them, when suddenly the anger
In his countenance was supplanted by a look of
terror and he sunk away as silently as he had
come. He had caught sight of Armies mother,
who during Enoch's absence had broken up
housekeeping and come over to live with her
daughter, and had become fixture there.
Enoch told some of the BOYS afterward that
1t was the narrowest escape OF his life. and
that he would rather be shipwrecked every
live minutes than to encounter his mother-in-
law. 81, l',-.

A RANCHMAN,S FREAK.
A Wonderful DOll,s Wardrobe for che
Wilds Of Nebraska.

From the Cincinnati Commercial 0axsttA
When Mrs. Judge Higley returned from Arte-
seta some weeks ago she brought with her Q
commission from . friend-a rich ranchman
OF Beatrice, Neb., who Is preparing very de-
hghtful surprise for his little ten-year-old
daughter. whose birthday falls early in Septem-
Der. The surprise takes the shape of doll
almost as big as the little lady herself. The
preparation Of wardrobe for it was intrusted
to Mrs. Harry Watlfin the artistic dressmaker
OF Race street. Mrs. Watkin was given carte
blanche to provide a wedding reception and
waiking-dress; a tea-gOwn and Mother Hub
bard wrapper, twoEets Of lingerie. boots, gloves,
hosiery, bonnets, &c The result Is most ex-
quisite outfit made with the same dainty pre-
cislon that would mark a 'grown up" ward
robe. The seams of the waist are bound with
SILK, and every seam Of the bodices crow footed
with silk. The handkerchefs are Of linen
cambria, hemstitched by special order at the
Womens Exchange. The wedding dress is of
white satn embroidered in JET and trimmed
with real lace and orange blossoms. The recep-
ton dress s OF pale blue silk. exquisitely trim
med with Mauresque lace. and thirteen yards of
silk went to the making of the dress. With this
is an exquisite poke bonnet of blue velvet with
pink piumeS, blue silk hose and blue silk mits
The walking dress is bronze Ottoman silk,
with relief of Mandarin yellow, with long
coat OF bronze velvet faced with yellow silk and
fastened with silver buttons. The Langtry
turban to go with this Is of bronze crepe de
chene with an impyan head and yellow plumage
at the side. The tea gown is Of white came
lette, made 10 Vatican. the entire front tor
SADIE of lace interrupted by knots of pale pink
ribbon. The Mother Hubbard is Of scarlet CASH
mere. The opera hat is of white jet, with two
plumes. one OF white marabOut and the other
gold tipped. The underwear and white null
toilet are masses of delicate lace and needle
work. every stitch set as daintily as if for
baby's christening robe. The entire cost of the
outfit is close on to $500, and it is unquestion-
ably the most sumptuous and thorough outfit
ever prepared for such a purpose. It will be
likely to create sensation and perhaps reyolu-
ton and seditiOn in high-life nurseries in Ne
