A Lively Statesman.

A certain State Senator, who was
returning to his constituency the other
day after his biennial trip to San Fran
cisco, became interested in conversation
at the Mound House, and the first thing
he knew, the train had pulled out for
Dayton. Those who saw the exciting
race Of half-mile, or Whereabouts, say
that the distinguished statesman devel.
oped an ability for running that will
lay all Of his would-be competitors in
the shade two years hence, predictions
to the contrary Notwithstanding. He

a Horrible Road.

The corporation trail between Day.
ton and Silver City is in a villainous
state Of guttered-out dilapidation, and
is no more like a road than a mushroom
is like Methodist minister. No doubt
the responsible officials have earnestly
endeavored to put the read in good or.
dor. but 1t would puzzle anybody to
maintain a good road.bed where tor.
rents OF water are allowed to sluice il
out There is plenty Of material with
which to make good roads. The clean,
well'washed gravel, Of which there are
endless quantities in the canyon, is the
stuff Of which an eternal road bed NAV
be constructed. But there must be
drain'ways on both sides, otherwise all
work is lost.

1t is reported that company is be.
ing organized IN Virginia City to turn
the Carson river, near the Santiago
mill, the project being to clean out the
bed of the stream and capture the tons
of quicksilver and amalgam that are
supposed 10 be there. No doubt there
are large quantities Of precious stuff in
the numerous pot.holes and swirls in
the river. bed, but it will require cOnsid-
cradle patience and time, and not lit
tie capital, to get at the real nutriment
that may be in the channel. A year or
two ago a number of miAerS put in
side hume to turn the river when the
water was comparatively low, believing
that the river would become still lower.
They also put in a steam pump and at
tempted to pump out sink, more than
twenty feet deep, thinking that much
good stuff was to be found in the murky
depths; but before they got any prohta.
Bile returns a swash OF water came down
from the adjacent hills and drowned
them out. A few days agoit looked as
if the river would be lower this summer
than it ever was before, thus afording
an excellent opportunity for working it;
but the pluvial dividend Of the past
week has squelched these hopes, and it
is probable that the bed of the turbu.
lent Carson will not be disturbed until
another opportunity comes along. But
",here's millions in it," without doubt.

A Massachusetts paper, speakseg Of
Biahop Whitaker. who returned TO
Virginia last Sunday, says: The Mis-.
sionary Bishep of Nevada has been
visiting the parishes in this diocese at
the request Of the General Board OF
Missions, to awaken a greater interest
in the cause of church extension. He
has been very cordially welcomed, and
his addresses have been listened to with
great attention. A layman recently
said that he regarded the address he
heard as q model, because it,was to the
point, full of information and eminently
practical. The Bishop is filling up all
the time allotted him. One week, be-
tween Sundays, Bishop Whitaker spoke
eight times in the southern part Of the
diocese, and then four times on Sunday.

THE WORK OF A TRAMP.
Specimen HandiwOrk Of q No
madic Type-Jerker.

Yesterday professional tramp ran
across this Office and asked for work.
Sympathetically we were inclined to
give him lift. Though his toes stuck
out through the roof of his hat, and his
lank belly was cinched with a stranded
hay-rope, we recognized him as mem
her of the or aft, and at once took him
to Geo. Shaw's and dosed him with a
two-story cocktail. He said he worked
with Steve ellis in San Francisco, on
John Nugent's He,aAa, in IS, and was
acquainted with all the old boys. Upon
this personal recommendation we put
him to work upon an article which we
had carefully prepared with our trusty
shears. Following is the result of his
typographical cogitations, just as he left
us in the lurch, with couple of hard
dollars on the side, not to mention the
numerous cocktails aforesaid:

Wool Gatherings.

A TINES reporter, in search Of news,
visited the sheep corral at the lower end
OF town last Tuesday and gathered the
following items Of interest:
E. l.. Hubbard has made his last
shipment of wool from here for the
season, and it brings his total up to
II, 900 pounds.
Frank Dusy is now shearing 5000
sheep, and his yield will amount to
$4,000 pounds.
Altogether, the shipments from Day
ton will aggregate about 30, 900 pounds
Of wool that will sell for fifteen cents
per pound.
Sheep shearers work "by the piece"
and make very good wages. They get
eight cents per sheep and board. A
rapid workman can, with good, clean
sheep, sheer from ninety to I25 in
day. AS class, if those who are here
can be taken as criterions, they are
above the average, and, as they spend
their money rather freely, their acquisi-
ton to dull town is by no means to
be despised. Some of those who are
classed as above the average in pru-
dence take to herding after the shearing
season is over, while many Of them cal
culate to make sufficient out of the
Spring work to last until the Fall shear
ing and then earn enough more to last
them until Spring again. Some of them
start in shearing in the warmer climate
Of California and gradually work them.
selves back east as far as Wyoming,
returning in time for the Fall shearing:
As rule, though, they appear like the
sailor, whose only anxiety is that he
may make enough money on one voyage
to last him until he gets ready for
another. AS an example of their indie
pendent, and almost reckless spirit, one
of them quit on Tuesday because the
sheep were so hard to work that he
could shear only fifty in day, earning
four dollars and board. When the
reporter told him that he thought it
rather foolish thing to quit such an
apparently good thing for an uncer-
talnty, his reply was that if he could
not make, at the very least, six dollars
per day al this season Of the year, he
preferred doing nothing.
A good flock will average from eight
to eight and one half pounds to the
fleece.
The Winter has been SO unusually dry
that the sheep are quite dirty. the heavy
rains having the effect Of washing the
dust out Of the wool.
Mr.. Dusey, who drove his sheep from
Fresno, Cal, last Summer, says that
the best feeding ground he has struck
in Nevada is in the foothills between
here and Sntro.
The shipment Of weol from Mason
Valley will amount TO $1,000 pounds,
and from Smith Valley there will be
"a, 900 pounds.

4 Little WashOut.

The south bound train on the Carson
and Colorado railroad yesterday came
acress a washout in Churchill Canyon,
about eighteen miles from Dayton, and
was compelled TO camp out for few
hours. The north bound train halted
at the same place, and did not arrive
here until after midnight. 1t was re-
ported here that a serious accident had
occurred, and a wrecking party was
speedily made up to SO to the scene Of
the supposed disaster. The diminutive
Douglas engine was pressed into service
by an anxious lot Of people who saw
a grand opportunity for free ride on
hat.car in a pouring rein. When the
Good Samaritans returned they were
wild with hunger and chilled to the
marrow. They accordingly made
raid upon Schroeder and tapped him for
lots of sardines and sodo.crackers,
wherewith to fill their vacuitous car
touch. boxes. The damage on the rail-
road was nothing but delay.

Taking the Fly.

The piscatorial experts OF two or
three counties are much exercised over
the newly discovered fact that Washoe
Lake contains millions Of fish that will
"take the Ay"-something heretofore
unheard.of. But it is fact; there are
acres of good fishing along the edges of
that slovenly pool called Washoe Lake,
and the sports can thank Hub. Parker
for it. Washoe Lake will, no doubt,
become a popular fishing place, now
that it is known that good hy-hshing is
to be had there.
