THE STORM.
It Continues with NO Abate.
nlent.

1t Continues with no Abate.
The damnable weather which
came upon this city last Tuesday
continues with no prospect of what
is commonly called ''let up It
has been combination Of wind
and rain rarely, if ever, witnessed
in the State. Upon ordinary oc-
casions storms exhaust their vital
ity in three days, but this one
seems to be several consolidated
storms all Showing under the same
black tent Of impeuetrable cloud
The wind has been mostly from
the Southwest, and on Sunday
night blew great guns, until people
who lived in frame houses didn't
expect to have a roof over their
heads by morning. Roofs are leak
ing all over town, as the wind
seems to blow the water under the
shingle and it penetrated every
crevice. In the public school
building, yesterday, it became too
warm for comfort, on account Of
the rousing fires and when an at
tempt was made to open the win
dows they were all found so badly
swollen as to be immovable, and
the children not in the immediate
vicinity of the door almost suffo-
Gated. The creeks which come
down from the mountains are surg
ing torrents, and if the storm con-
tinues much longer the city will be
flooded. Yesterday, in the morn
ing, the weather cleared up, but by
10 o'clock it lowered again and
rained in steady torrents all day.
By 4 O'Clock in the afternoon it
was almost as dark as night and it
looked as if the storm had taken
a fresh hold and intended to give
us a few more turns. The action
of the elements has completely
demoralized the oldest weather
prophets of this section.

THE PISTOL HAWTHORNE
Niko Dovey Shot Twice by Bill
WithrOw

WithrOw
On last Friday evening Mike
Dovey the shotgun messenger fol-
Wells Fargo was in Tubino's
saloon and remarked casually
that he was the last man in the
world to pick a quarrel, but good
man when he got into one.
On Saturday evening Bill With
row, an enemy of Dovey's walked
up to him, and said:
"You said last night that you
were good man, are you as good
a man now7"
Dovey laughed and said he "felt
about as good" when Withrow,
drawing a sixshooter, fired two
shots both of which took effect in
Dovey's groin. Dewey clinched
with his man after the first shot
and the two rolled over on the floor.
The bystanders interfered and
Doyey was taken to a drug storea
bleeding terribly. He will prob
ably recover.
There has been bad feeling be-
tween the men for some time.
About three years ago when a
stage was robbed near Lundy as
the stage left Withrow's saloon
he fred two shots, which Dovey al
legged was signal to the road
agents that the stage had started.
This charge caused the ill-feeling.
Later on Dovey had two women in
Bodie as witnesses to stage rob-
berry and Withrow endeavored to
get them away, which caused more
trouble.
He is now in Jail and considered
particularly hard character.

THE OZARK
opened Last Night With q Rig
Hurr4h

The Ozark Saloon, just completed
by John Sweeney opposite the
Ormsby House was opened last
night with great eclat.
Mr.. Sweeney's idea of saloon
is to combine art, amusement,
cleanliness and good liquor in
such a way that all sorts Of tastes
will be catered. The main saloon
is 66 by 20 with Is feet to the cell
ing and fitted up with metropolitan
elegance. The bar is Of PARALLEL
black walnut, silver mounted and
16 feet in length.
The most notable thing about the
place is the lavish picture display.
''The Birth of Venus" and 'Nymphs
and Satyre" by Bouguereau.
Four nude pictures by Picou and
six pastoral scenes by Millet are
the leading ones. Upon the right
are the reproductions of several
French water colors, all good works
Of art, and two large English
chromos are representing a reading
club in session and the other a
group Of connoisseurs getting in
their solid work on wine cellar
There are two French sketches com
paaion pieces which call forth the
hearties laughter.
The first represents an irate
father who has surprised his son
DINING with soiled dove. The
old gentleman, full of virtuous rage,
has the boy by the ear with his
head pinned to the table and shak-
ing his cane savagely. The next
represents the son surprising the
old man dining with the same
woman.
The look of uncomfortable tri-
umpth on the young mans face and
the humiliation and disgust Of
"the Coy" who appears to be
sweating blood is a fine study,
Below the engravings and ar
rayed in panals, are large photo
graphs Of the leading sporting men
Of the United States.
There are two other commodious
rooms elegantly fitted out, one the
lair of the tiger, and the other fo1
devotees Of poker, the national
game Of Carson. There is also a
reeding room.
The place was crowded last
evening and collation. was spread
at 8 o'clock. Mr.. Sweeney proposes
making the place the sporting center
of Nevada and will run his stables
of thoroughbred stock in connection
with it.

An Adventurous Journalist.

New YORK, Dec. 22.-The Times
special cable from London says:
Much Indignation prevails In offic-
ial circles and everywhere oyer the
fact announced today that III. Oil
yer Pain, a Frenchman, is in the
Mahdi's camp, and that he has or
ganized secret service by which
he has obtained from the French
colony in Ciaro news of all Of Gen.
Wolseley's movements. Pain is a
journalistic adventurer, who was a
leading character in the Commune,
and who was sent to Caledonia
with other Communists, but es-
capped with Rochefort and went to
Turkey. After various escapades
on his own responsibility, it is said
he made the journey alone to Ell
Mahdi's camp where he had warm
reception as a French subject. In
the present delicate relations be-
tween England, and France, the
questions arising out of Pains con-
duct. Concerning which Gen.
Wolseley is very indignant, are
likely to prove extremely interest
- ~
circulated stories of sickness in Ell
Mahdi's camp and of the general
disruption of his forces which have
reached Wolseley, have been man
aged by Pain as a decoy scheme, by
which the English might be led in
to an unsupported advance of the
camel corps across the desert.
