A SANDER.


Senator Fair, who is about to resume
marital relations with his divorced wife,
admits that the only reason for their sep
aration was that when he became Q mil
lionaire and was able to buy o seat in the
Senate he found that his wife was not
qualified to shine in the society in which
he suddenly found himself. Doubtless
her luminous powers have lately some
what increased, and hence their reunion.

This story will be recognized at once by
those who have any knowledge Of the Fair
family, as being q manufactured story.
Mrs. Fair is known to be q lady of great
dignity and excellent sense, and no one
acquainted with Der and her former hus-
band, doubts but she would have appeared
as well as he in Washington society; and
Mr.. Fairs social leadership at the Capital
is recognized. The fact is, that social
status In Washington is determined very
largely by the possession or lack Of wealth.
Education goes for something when
backed by money, but is not more potent
than, ii as potent as, a generous fund OF
good sense and strength of moral and in
tellectual character such as Mrs. Fair is
known to possess. Mrs. Fair is q worthy
lady in the best sense Of the word, and il
she had gone to Washington, and been
made i'll at ease in society, the fault would
not have been with her, but with the
butterflies who subsist there on convention
alities and empty forms.

PIOCHE PICKlNGs.
Record. Aprif II.

Hosting ore and screenings out Of the
Washington & Creole mine was commenced
on Tuesday. 1t sounds sort Of nice to hear
the whistle blow at regular hours again.
The boys would do well if they would only
blow it a little gently early Of mornings.
At 6 O'Clock in the morning the sound of q
whistle is sweeter when blown gently.
There Is some very rich ore being
brought into town from the late strike in
the Day mine. The ore not only goes high
in silver, but also in lead. This is the
first ore found in the Day that vent high
in lead. The ore body is turning out well,
and the men working in the mine are q
little excited over it. .

The wordy warfare between Mr.. Barnum
and Mr.. Forepsugh assumed a fresher
phase when the certificates appeared from
DR.. Joseph Leidy, Professor of Anatomy of
the University of Pennsylvania, and from
DR.. William S. Forbes, who occupies o
similar position in the Jefferson Medical
College, pronouncing the skin of Fore
paugh's beast to be perfectly natural and
healthy and free from foreign matters of
all kinds. simultaneously with this
declaration comes an announcement from
Mr.. Barnum, offering to give the Society
for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals
the sum of Sl0.0 600 if the "Light of Asia"
is not stained, painted and discolored.

Catgut Not Catgut.

Most of the so-called catgut of COM
merce is formed from the twisted intes-
tines of sheep. In Italy there is a small
native breed Of sheep from which the best
strings are made; though very likely the
skill of the manufacturer has quite as
much to do with the merit OF the article
as the particular animal from which the
material is procured.

THE VIRGINIA WRESTLING
Begins with a squabbIe and Ends

ESPECIAL TO THE sEsTINEL.I
VIRGINIA, New, April 22.-The wrestling
match came of last night between James
Pascoe Of. Virginia and d. A. Mcmillan OF
San Francisco for $3.50 q side and gate
J money. Over 500 persons witnessed the
match. The match was to have taken
place at s O'Clock, but there was considers-
BILE delay in choosing q referee, and it was
nearly 10 O'Clock before an understanding
was had, and at one time il looked as
though a general free fight would be in
order. Finally the hackers Of MCMILLAN
requested that all bets should be declared
of II Pascoe's hackers were to insist on
the right of selecting their referee. Ac-
~cordingly William Harper, Pascoe's
choice, took his station as referee. He
declared all bets off and stated that the
principals would wrestle only for the
stakes and gate money. Both men were
in splendid condition. Pascoe weighing
l47k pounds and Mcmillan, the taller Of
the two, 100 pounds. The articles
Of agreement called for five styles Of
wrestling, the winner Of three falls
to be declared the victor. Mcmillan
won the toss for first choice, and called
for o bout at collar-and elbow. After five
minutes play, Mcmillan threw Pascoe on
his back, but there being some doubt in
the mind Of the referee, he declared 1t no
fall. After q rest Of three minutes, time
was called, and in % seconds more Nc
MILAN again threw his man. The second,
chosen by Pascoe, was one bout according
to the Cornish style. It was won by
Psscoe. The third was a sidehold, won by
Mcmillan. The fourth, Greco-Roman, was
won by Pascoe. The last was catch-as-catch-
can. After 20 minutes Of strictly tactical
work, time was called. 1t being nearly
Q o'clock, both men were pretty thoroughly
exhausted and concluded to call the match
a draw. In so declaring, the referee had
the consent Of both the principals.

Examination for the Cadefsbfp.
The competitive examination Of candi-
dates for the Nevada West Point cadetship
will take place at Winnemucca next Mon
day. We are not informed as to what
length Of time will be devoted to the ex-
animation, but we presume it can hardly
occupy less time than two days. We are
not able to state how many boys will be
candidates. We know positively Of eight,
whose names have been mentioned, but
there will doubtless be twice that many,
and may be a good many more, if appli-
cants for the cadetship from the western
part Of the State prove 10 be as numerous
as was OF first anticipated. We have four
competitors from Eureka aud Ruby Hill.
These young gentlemen began to prepare
themselves only q short while ago, and
will be, TO that extent, at q disadvantage,
for some Of the other candidates have
made long and lsborious preparation, with
special reference to the test at Winnie
mucca on the 28th. Ordinarily, in such
a case as this, some boy can be picked
out in advance Is being very
superior in talent or preparation, and as
likely to outstrip all his rivals. We have
heard no such mention made Of any one
OF the candidates for the cadetship. though
we believe the Reveille has asserted that
Robert Eames of Austin will be Q hard
boy to beat. The candidates from Eureka
and Ruby Hill are quick, bright boys, and
we would not be surprised if one Of them
should win. We certainly hope so. On
account OF the trains leaving only every
other day, they will have TO start from
here Saturday morning, in order to be in
w~innemucca for the opening Of the exam
nation on Monday.
