A Curious Freak.

Over at New Jerusalem, on the
ranch of A. Perkins there Is a mare
which recently gave birth 4o4s colt.
There Is nothing very strange about
this, but shortly afterward a COW
owned by Mr.. Perkins gave birth to
a calf, and the calf has been adopted
by the mare. The calf will not
nurse from its real mother and has
taken up with the colt and mare and
cannot be driven away. The old
horse seems to take a particular pride
in her newly found babe and treats
1t with even more care than she does
her own offspring. There is posi-
bility that the bull that sired the calf
was on intimate terms with the mare
and that for old acquain lance sake
she has taken upon herself the re-
sponsibility of bringing up his bull
ships son.

Trade at Home.

Considerable complaint has been
made of late by several Dayton parties
that the articles sold by T. r. McGurn,
who runs a wagon down here from Vir-
glnia, are not fresh; and that the tricky
groceryman is sliding off his stale stock
upon the unsophisticated people Of our
burg, is a selfevident fact. Those who
do trading with this concern, and are
not satisfied, are deserving Of no SYM
patty. Let them patronize our home
houses, pay little more for what they
buy and get hrst.class goods. The ad-
vantages Of trading at home are too
numerous to mention, but the main
point is that the money is kept here and
finds its way into the pockets of neigh
bors and friends instead of being placed
in the hands of a person who never
spends dollar of it in our county.
In trading at home you have the advan-
tage of going to the store and making
your own selections and are not obliged
to take what is brought to you or go
without and be disappointed. Why it
is that people will look at this matter
in the right light and do their trading
at our home institutions cannot be I'M
derstood. You would be in fine pre-
dicament shoulG you wish favor done
and be told that you had better call on
Mr.. McGurn. Mr.. MEG. would be the
first one to render you assistance-in
his mind.

DR.. c. G. Busby gave lecture at
the Court House on Thursday even
ing the subject of which was "What
Blind Maa saw in Jerusalem. )"
Quite large audience was present
and was we'll pleased with what they
heard. DR.. Busby's subject last
night was pyramids Of Egypt, by
whom built, and for what purpose"
He will deliver lecture Sunday
afternoon to the Sunday school.
The DR.. is nephew of the celebrat-
ed sDsyy Crockett, who was killed
in the battle of the Alamo on March
26th 1885. For six years the d.. was
paymaster in the sultan of Turkeys
army; he then returned to his native
State-Texss-and in fight with the
Comanche Indians received q wound
which put out both of his eyes. He
then took to the lecture field and be.
came a professional phrenologist.
The DR.. can tell many. Interesting
anecdotes of early times, and has
undergone @ rather checkered life
taking it all in all. He was ship
wrecked of the coast of South
America, pls, ed three years with q
strolling company IS q leading COM
edian, was arrested in London on
suspicion of being Fenlan; was
blown up IN a steamboat explosion
aud nearly killed near st. Joseph,
and looks forward to long life of
adventure and enjoyment.

The following items of interest are
taken from the Walker Lake Bulle-
tin of last Wednesday,:
Work on the Hindley tunnel In
Garfield is steadily progressing.
Six men are at work sinking q
shaft on the Lacey mine in Garfield.
A Republican Club with forty.
eight members has been organized
in CoryviIle.
The last shipment Of the Mount
Cory Company was ten bars, valued
at $l3, 1875.
The output of the Anterior mine
is now about four tons daily, the
average assay value of which is
about $3.50.
Joshua Moss has a tunnel in one
hundred and ninety feet on the Mon
treal claim, In ellis district. This
ledge is about two feet wide, and is
rich in free gold.
The Great Western mine is looking
well, as usual. Considerable Juan
titles of rich rock are taken out every
day. A new tunnel is being run 10
cut the vein at depth of 200 feet.
W. t. Bunney and family have
returned to Mason Valley from Mis-
souri,, and the pent up eloquence of
the Pizen Switch lawyer will again
surge forth in a turgid stream of
woTds-allegory and splendid com.
parison. Already there are rumors
of litigation, turn oil and contention.
Mrs. w. b. Sanders is again the
victim Of runaway team. On Sat.
urdsy evening last MIR. Sanders, &C.
companied by his wife and two other
ladies, while out driving, coming to
a gate, gave the lines to one Of the
ladies to hold while he slighted.
he team, sfter passing through, be.
came frightened aud began to run.
Mr.. Sanders, in trying to stop them,
was severely injured, and when
crossing ditch Mrs. Sanders was
thrown from tie wagon. The fright.
ened horses ran for some distance
finally being stopped at fence,
where the other two ladies, Miss
Linds and Miss Purcell, were thrown
out and severely shocked, but not
seriously injured. Mrs. Sanders
was picked up and taken home in
an insensible condition, and at first
is was feared she was fatally injured.
Both ears were nearly torn off and
she had received many other severe
injuries. DIR. Leavitt was immedi-
ately called and at last accounts she
was improving.

Sale Of BlOoded Stock.

Mr.. w. J Marsh, of Sheridan,
who passed through Dayton q week
or so ago with fine band of young
short horn cattle, returned from
Mason Valley on Monday, having
disposed of his stock to the rsnchers
and stockmen out that way. Mr..
James Nichol, of Greenfield, pur-
chased the two year old bull known
as Royal Prince, and the price paid
for him was $3.50. This calf is con-
sidered by competent judges the
most perfect animal ever seen IN the
State. Mr.. Fogg, also Of Greenfield,
purchased the bull calf known IS
Indian Prince No. 2, and paid for
him the sum of 5000, and Jesse
Woodcock purchased Prince 1mpe-
rial for 5000. Mr.. s. s. Buckland,
of Fort Churchill, purchased two
very likely calves from the band,
and Mr.. Fl. F. Swasey, of Wabuska,
also made purchase of one Of the
bulls. 1t is very evident that the
ranchers and cattle men are begin
ming to understand that there Is a
great advantage in raising thorough
bred stock; and from what is learn.
ed 1t is judged that Mr.. Marsh has
the finest blooded stock in the State.
The cattle business in Nevada is
growing to be one of the most i'm
portant industries, and the breeding
of thoroughbred stock will be of far
greater advantage to stock owners
than the breeding of common ami
mails. Our State leads the world as
a beef producer, and there is no rea
son why she should not lead as a
producer of blooded cattle.
