The Sabre-toethsd Tiger.

The Carson Appeal man has applied
for the privilege of conducting the
explorations in the curiosity bed at the
State Prison. Since the discovery of
the teeth of the sabre-toothed tiger,
further explorations have laid bare g
series of petrified stripes, which, al
though they resemble those on the
convict suits, undoubtedly belonged
to the tiger. The stripes are perfect
in form and color, and, although at
present tlattened out like door mat,
were evidently at one time Il comfort
and ornan, Mt to their wearer. The
Appeal man has a theory which he
wishes to test, and has force at work
In eager search for more relics of for
gotten ages. The work is being car
ried on with every precaution against
accident, and it is necessarily slow.
At last accounts the workmen had
uncovered the corner of something
which has not yet been classified, but
when the sand MAS brushed oft the
Appeal staff expressed conviction
that it was one of the piercing howls
of the animal, uttered rs it was caught
in the convulsion which handed down
its other remains for the benefit of
scientific research. The discovery is
deemed very promising, as the ex-
, plorers are now very hopeful of find
ing the great object of the search. The
theory of the Appeal is that close to
the holy will be found the carniverous
appetite OF the tiger, and the discov
cry Of the howl has put new life into
the work. 1t is the intention of the
editor to keep it in his private collec-
ton, not for exhibition, but to be car
ried with him, as an assistant, when
invited to dinner Ivy delinquent sub
scribers.

Some RE, Tape.

A short time ago, says the Austin
Reoeilie. some horses were purchased
from different persons in Reese River
Valley for Government service in Ari
IONA. Three or four of Uncle Sans
men were sent here TO inspect and re,
ceive The horses. They were taken,
ptid for and driven to WadSworth, and
thence toiheir destination by rail. On
arrival in Arizona agents there bjected
to receive them, IN account of ages,
claiming that they were not as, repre-.
senied. Yesterday AN official came
here and took JUDI e.Weiler with him
10 the valley to administer oaths to par.
ties selling the animals. OF course
these aflidavits will satisfy the experts
in Arizona that all is right, unless some
chap wants to make Il trip for pleasure.

Youthful Isstfnrt,

The young idea shoots in about the
same direction all over the United
States, and the instinct of Young
America leads it to the locality of fire
works when the Fourth of July APP
proaches, no matter where they may
happen to be stored. II. NJ. King
received some packages from San
Francisco and placed them in the rear
OF his store until the proper time for
displaying them arrived. The boys
discovered the place, and now, on
various preienses, they go in twos and
thrces to look at the tempting bundles
and speculate on the number of red
balls in that bunch of candles, or the
loudness of the report of the plump
Chinese bombs.

The Aurora Herald complains that
McKenna received inhuman burial
His remains were n placed in a rose
wood coffin, nor was there any extra
ordinary display, but everything was
done decently. There was neither
disrespect nor inhumanity, and, taken
altogether, rs n funeral conducted at
the county's expense, there was as
much outward show of grief as could
have been expected. The Herald man
seems TO think that the citizens acted
inhumanely by not going in body
for IA last look at the remains; also, in
not attending the funeral more numer.
ously. Those who are so easily
shocked at inattention to the dead are
frequently as easily shocked by appli
cations for assistance from the living.
The less said about such matters the
better, and friends of McKenna will

Ds9F Sir:
En- regard 90 the report that is

your city that we do Dot make as

the fire, we beg 50 say that they
have net seen any Of our Pianos that
we have made since our recent fire.
and know nothing about them.
Their Infamous statement is a
PURE FABRICATION of their
own for sinister motives. They
have always spoken in the very
highest terms OF our instruments
when they were our agents, which
believe many of the teachers and
others in your city can verify. It
would be the height Of insanity in
Us to anger or weaken, IN THE
LEAST POSSIBLE DEGREE.
the high standard of excellence
that ouI Pianos have attained in
this and in other countries, and
that has taken us SO many years of
STEADY ana peFSeVerlng application
to establish. The fact is that we
have added number of Important
Improvements in our Pianos that
were contemplated before the de-
strucbion of our factory, and our
instruments are now UNSURPASSED
by those Of any other maker. Ref
erenee to our new catalogue will
show the latest improvements and
alterations. Your remark that the
advance Of prices would no doubt be
found in the additional value of the
Pianos now being made" is strictly
correct, and the exact truth of
which you will fully appreciate
when you receive the lot orderd and
