A Battle Mountain Beauty.

The Pondir who figures as the
hero of this story, taken from the
Philadelphia Record, used to shed
his narrowing beauty abroad in the
streets of Battle Mountain. It may
be satisfaction to have notoriety
of some kind even if it is homely
face:
Keene's right-hand man in Wall
Street was old John Pondir, and in
real estate Joe Emanuel, both of
them Israelites Of the Olden school.
Pondir sold Keene his stock farm
at Mahwah, New Jersey, and Keene
transferred it to Emanuel, who now
resides there. Pondir is said to be
the homeliest man on Wall Street,
but he won hundred dollars once
Oh question of his personal beau
ty. A broker offered to give him
a hundred dollars if he would find
man homelier than himself. Pom
dir took him up. went to his office
and called ''Rufe." His son Rufus
who has red hair and squirt, APP
peared on the scene. There" said
the gratifed and triumphant par
ent. Look there, and just hand
over the hundred dollars" Rufe's
point won the wager.

Of his offer to pay his indebtedness

good. Indeed, I am feeling un-
usually well. 1t has been impossi-
bic for any one to obtain what
money he needed in these days,

Decoration Day.
The Dayton Times has the fol-
lowing:
"Why would it not be wellto call
a meeting of patriotic people and
take measures for the proper OBJ
servance of Memorial Day? There
is no reason why we should sit
supinely by while Virginia, Carson,
Reno and many other towns of less
importance than Dayton are going
to observe the day in benefiting
manner. There is talent enough
here for eloquent and original con-
tributions towards the literary ex-
ercises. Even if this could not be
done the example of Carson could
be followed and the school children
prevailed upon to read the grafton
and poem of some eloquent author.
But there is no necessity of that.
Let those who are willing to take a
hand in this matter hold meeting
at the Courthouse this evening
and appoint committee to arrange
a programme for the becoming OBJ
seryance of Decoration Day.
It would be we'll also to remem-
Der the Fort Churchill dead. tits
a shame that the graves of the gal
liant boys in blue at the Fort should
remain in such delapidated state,
and be isolated and neglected in
the Decoration Day observances.
1t is a disgrace and a reproach to
our patriotism. There is no need
of this neglect. It is true the Fort
is twenty miles from here and that
there are few residents in its imme-
diate vicinity, but there are good
many people living on the ranches
within radius of from five to ten
miles, and they might well spare
one day in the year to pay the
well-earned tribute of respect and
veneration to the memory Of the
twenty odd brave and gallant sol
diers buried there on that bleak,
barren hillside. But if patriotism
has left that vicinity we think that
Supt. Yerington would give the
people of Dayton greatly reduced
rates on the C. & c. if requested,
should our people arrange for an
excursion to the Fort on Decoration
Day for the purpose of decorating
those lonely graves. Let it not be
said that Fort Churchill is the only
place in the Union where the last
resting place of the brave soldiers
remains neglected and forgotten
year after year on this day.
