False Teeth.

An old and respected citizen of
Dayton was in the barber shop one
day this week having a friendly con-
versation with DR.. Friedline, the
dentist, and in talking of other
things the question of dentistry was
brought up. The Ir. who had an
eye to business enquired of Mr.. NJ
since the loss of his natural teeth,
and Mr.. M replied very emphat'
ically that he had. Said he: "a
number OF years ago | paid in the
neighborhood OF 500 for a fine set
of false teeth, and the first day /
wore them gentleman who owed
me "a stepped up and asked what
his bill was. l knew the amount
was 81, but for some unaccountable
reason l told him 1t was but SO, and
before l had time to say more he
had placed the money in my hand
and departed. l had practiced with
the teeth for week or more when /
again made another mistake OF a
similar nature, and then concluded
that If lost money at that rate every
time I opened my mouth, that l
would soon be u ruined community,
and therefore made up my mind
to wear the teeth no longer" The
DIR. tried to convince Mr.. NJ that
he could manufacture plate for
him that would make him claim a
dollar or two more on each bill due
him, but our worthy citizen could
not see it in that light

Some three or four years ago the
Italians on the Barrett ranch, just
across the river, missed very fine
COW from their pasture. Whether
the animal strayed or was stolen
was matter OF doubt, though sus-
picion rested on one Scansvino, who
has ranch adjoining that of the
other Italians. At the time the COW
was missed search was made, and
the greater part of Scanavino's ranch
dug up to see if he had not killed
and buried the animal, but their eff
forts were IN vain. No more light
was thrown on the matter until a
few weeks ago, when Scanavino OBJ
tanned divorce from his wife on the
grounds Of adultery. She then told
some of the other Italians that Scan
avino had killed the COW and show
ed them where it was buried. They
resurrected the remains and easily
identified them by the hide and
horns. They are trying to make a
compromise but law suit will prob
ably end the matter.

At seven o'clock last Saturday
evening the jury In the Combs case
at Reno returned into Court with a
verdict of murder in the second de
gree. The jury also asked the ut
most leniency OF the Court in behalf
OF the prisoner. The verdict was a
surprise to everybody, as it was gem
orally believed if an agreement was
made at all it would be comprom.
Use on manslaughter. The 9Th of
November was set as the day tor
passing sentence. The jury came
three times into Court with the dec
laration that they could not agree,
and after receiving additional in'
stauctlons from the Court were or.
dered back to the jury room. The
opinion of the defendants attorneys
is that the verdict will be set aside
by the Supreme Court, for the reas-
on tina. keeping the jury confined
30 long after having asked to be dis
charged, together with the subse.
quent instructions of the Judge, 1t
does not express the fair, deliberate
and influenced Judgment of the ju-
rors. The countenance of the pris.
oner showed plainly his surprise
and disappointment at the verdict
The above is condensed from the ac-
count published in the Reno Journal.

A strong Argument.

"Dar is no disease" exclaimed a
colored orator, "dat am half SO bad
as incompetence. 1t am de basis OBJ
all phIzekel ills and de source OBJ all
wickedness." Our colored brother
is right in both cases, but we espec-
tally desire to expatlate upon his re-
marks regarding the first. The man
who drinks must pay for it morally,
physically and financially. He may
be able to stand the drain upon his
morals and finances, but physically
he cannot. Dyspepsia, liver and
kidney troubles, costiveness, sick
headache, and many other affections
will beset him, and unless he takes
Swayne's Pills, he may degenerate
into a chronic invalid.

4 Valuable Estate.

The Duke Of Westminster, the
great residential landowner of London.
manages his property in a fashion far
less troublesome to himself than that en-
pIoyed by the Astors. He knows moth
ing of the bother of annual leases, mend
ing roofs, putting in chimney pieces,
walls, etc When the lease
falls in, the Duke sells a new one, for
years usually, for cash down,
and in many cases the lessee has to build
a new house according to the rules of the
estate. Those who did not accede ex-
actIv to the late Marquis terms i'll this
respect We're turned out. This happened
to Lord Fitzwilliam after a tenancy by
himself and family of nearly a century.
The tenant also pays a ground rent, and
this and the sum paid for the lease are.
in choice localities, very heavy. Thus
the purchaser of about seventy remain
ing years of lease OF not very large
house in Grosvemor square had not long
since to pay $3.50, 900 to a holder under
the Duke The bulk Of the Duke of
of Westminster's Belgravia estate was let
originally on building lease, and thus
the houses will have cost him nothing;
but his father spent millions, toward the
close of his life. in rebuilding with
modern conveniences very valuable por-
tions, from which the returns have al
ready been enormous. The Belgravian
estate extends from Hyde Park corner to
the Thames, over two miles, covering
hundreds Of acres, and this is all in adj
dition to the almost priceless property
in and around Grosvcnor square, which
III one hundred and twenty-five years
has never abated in value. Grosyenor
square has forty-tive houses, and Bel
gravia forty, and every house is worth
on an average at least five thousand dol
lars a year.
