The Down Grade for Bonanza
Kings.


The fortunes of the bonanza men of Nevada.
Mackey, Flood and Fair, were not greatly ex-
aggerated in the first place. but within five
years they have sadly dwindled. Their great
source of wealth was in working the ores OF the
Big Bonanza, hauling the bullion, and manag
ing the mines, and that has wholly stopped
Their mining stocks have sunk in value TO al
most zero, and it is hard to tell now wherein
their great fortunes consist. OF course all are
rich men, but nothing like as rich as they were
five years ago. 1t is doubtful if any OF them.
with the possible exception OF Mackey, who al
ways had twice as much as the others, could
now put up $5,000,000. Mr.. Flood owns but
little real estate-Mr. Mackey none at all. Sen
ater Fair owns about 100000 worth Their
mining operations have for two years been a
burden Their bank does not pay, and never
has paid, for it never became popular with the
community The only property any of them
has that yields an income, except Fairs bust
ness blocks, is their Government bonds II was
but four years ago that Fair got caught. to tie
tune of a million by Robert Sherwood, another
mining capitalist, who used to sell watches and
finger rings At the time of the Sierra Nevada
deal Sherwood owned 5000 shares of Union
Consolidated, then rated in the market at 5000
share. Fair was clustering around one day
in Nevada Block about what was going to be
shown up in the mine, and how much higher
the stock was going Sherwood, who was a
very quiet and cautions man, hoped it was all
true, but had his doubts. II suppose You'd
like tv paddle out your stock, them said Fair.

Too True.

Mary Clemmer' writes from Washington:
Congress killed the Congressional Library
bill. That is, the Democrats killed it, with
malice aforethought. OF course, we could not
expect the Democratic mind to stretch its nm
civilized instincts up to the civilization of a
vast National Library, when that library, in
their small minds, appears as a prospective ire
mendous incubus on their own future small
personal interests. This Winter and next the
Democrats in Congress intend to masquerade
for the next coming Presidency. Several gen
tlemen outside of Congress are masquerading
for it personally; but the Democrats in legisla.
tive halls, feeling sure that they have the per-
sonal private pass-key to success, are deter
mined to turn it to their own advantage. Thus
they start in at once with the cry of economy.
samuel Randall said in private to the Trainer
OF tne Library bill: You are not going to sad
oie any great appropriation bills on the Demo-
cratic party Tor next year. The Library build
ing would take an appropriation of $4,000, 600,
ana you can't have IT. So the Democrats went
TO work and defeated the bill, as they have
done annually for so many years and will con-
tlnue to do till some day in the sweet and far
by ana by, when you and are dust and the
Congressional Library vastly dustier than it il

beauty and as to the appearance OF her
escort, and had printed the opinions, pray
what comment on such an impairment and
wretched proceeding would the Chicago or
St. Louis papers have passed. The suppose
ttious case differs little, if any, from the
case of Mrs. Langtry and the New York
gentleman who, with her husbands sister,
seems to be in her suite. Clearly the aiti-
tude of some of the Western journals tow
ard that lady and gentleman savors of
journalism which Mrs. Trollope, Captain
Basil Hall, Fanny Kemble and Dickens nifty

Here is quotation from one of them
May the members of this House not neg

themselves: How shall 1 curry favor with

How shall conduct myself so as to win the

judgment OF Almighty Cod? NAV these

PRESIDENT Eliot, Of Harvard University,
in bis recent report says that the admins
tration and service of the library cost about
100000 year, and since they are not en-

upon the college tuition fees and the unre-
stricted funds. The book funds produce
nearly $4,000 year. There are thousands
Of books in the library which, for want of
money to spend upon cataloguing, have new

the library greatly needs is funds amount

NEW YORK papers are agitating the early
closing movement as applicable to society
balls. The New York Times complains
that young men who 60 to balls cannot get
home until o'clock in the morning, and
that they are not in good condition to do
business the following day; and thinks that
aremedy can be found by putting the din
ner hour earlier, SO that dancing can begin
at o'clock and be over by l. a. m. The
Sun thinks that the trouble comes from the
attempt of young fellows to be men of bust
ness and men of fashion at the same time.
1t doesn't appear TINT the young men find
any fault with the late hours, but when
they do they can very easily find remedy
BY declining invitations, except to early par
ties.

AT the great Centennial Exhibition of 1875, the
industry were sembled at Philadelphia To carry
off prize in the face of that tremendous competi-
ton was a task of no ordinary difficulty. Inyen
tons and preparations for the alienation of pair
and the cure of disease were in the creates
possible variety representing the skill and the pro
foundest study of the age. and it may be Of vital i'm
portance to you. personally, to know that the high
est and only medal given to rubber Porous plasters
was awarded to the manufacturers of BENsoN's
CAPCINE POROUS PLASTER, by the following
jury.
DIR. VIM ROTH, Surgeon. General, Prussian Army
j. II. THOMPSON, A. NJ, NJ. D., Washington, D. c.
G. b. WHITE. M. D.. New Orleans.
ERNEST FLElsCH, M D., Austria.
The decision afterwards confirmed by the
medical jury at the last Paris Exposition. Knowing
the value of such high and unbiased testimony, the
medical profession both in the United States and in
Europe, quickly threw aside the old, slow -actiug
plasters they had been using and adopted Bensons
in their regular practice. That ply icians and
geons of the broadcast regulations did this distinctly
proves the intrinsic merit Of the article.
1t is no more han just to add that the average
physician of to-day is not dominated by the preju-
dices which retarded the progress and modified the
successes of his predecessors of than TWEEN
ty-fve years ago. He accepts hints from all quar-
tiers and endorses and adopts demonstrated healing
agents wherever he finds them.
The right of Benson's Capcine Porous Plaster to
stand at the head of all external applications what
soever, for the mitigation of disease is mo
