Exposition.

To the loomen Of Necada: Mrs. Julia
Ward Howe recently called together a
meeting of the heads of the different
departments Of womans work tor the
Worlds Exposition Mt New Orleans.
1t was decided that the department be
formed into six divisions of States,
with Il Vice President as Superinten-
dent of each division. For the Pacific
Coast Mrs. Lennon, of California, was
appointed. Mrs. Lemmon's deep
interest IN the success in the Pacific
Coast department Of Woman's Work
induces her to address the women of
Nevada, urging action on their part.
She thinks prompt effort should be
made to exhibit something from Ne
vada of womans work, Needlework,
embroidering, painting in oil of Ne
Nada scenery, craron sketches, God
carving, carpet weaving, some inven-
tions, some volumes OF stories or poems
even scrap-book collection of the
same some collections OF plants--auy-
thing that Will show an advance in the
industry Of woman's work should be
given. Transportation to and from
the Exposition will be paid by the
department at New Orleans, where the
articles will he carefully repack ed and
returned by Mrs. Lennon, unless sold
by the order of the exhibitor in which
case the money will be returned. All
goods should be securely boxed and
plainly marked. Explicit directions
for doing which, will be willingly
given by me upon application by
letter, of any lady who may desire to
send articles, as well as any and all
other information or advice pertaining
to this matter. We are deeply
indebted to the Carson Dattq Inder for
the above information, and to Mrs.
Marshall Robinson for her untring
efforts in bringing this matter 10 the
attention of The ladies of Carson, who
will spare no pains or labor in laying
the matter before every woman in the
State, and IN trying TO do this branch
of Neyada's industry credit ut the

of making splendid exhibit if the
proper arrangements can be made

The Reno Journal advises men not

inches thick. As six inches is con.
sidered substantial enough for heavy

acquired his idea of woman's weight

how gravity tells on fellow after an

Cnutiop to Se-locators.

1t is said that Secretary Teller has
decided that the first of January, being
legal holiday, re.locations made on
that day are not good. Nobody knows
the Secretary's opinion as to the
validity Of an original location on a
legal holiday, but lac would probably
hold the same views. If Mr.. Teller
has made such decision it might be
of interest to the curious to know
what is his opinion rs to Sunday
prospecting and what i,o mouiu s,ive
for mine that was discovered on the
Fourth of July, 1t is not certain that
he has arrived at the conclusion re-
ported, but, in view of the uncertainties
of Departmental rulings, it would be
well for re.locators to beware of flaws
in title, and be prepared to post new
notices If the report is confirmed.

Laugh and Grow Fat.

The following item, under the head
ing "TIt for Tat" has been printed in
nearly every paper in Nevada:
Senator Heating was so happy at
receiving the Democratic nomination
for Senator that he telegraphed a friend
in San Francisco: "Have received
caucus nomination for Senalor My
name is Riley, the same they spake Of
50 highly, and | kape hotel" To
which his friend replied; "lf you are
the same Mr.. Riley they spakc of so
highly, who keeps the hotel, you have
done dawmned well"
Those who don't feel sad and weary
after reading the above would grow fat
laughing over the solemn real and
personal truths in a delinquent tax list.

The following interview of a CAL
reporter with Sallie Wlnnemucca will
make those who remember the square
deal Deacon Gibson always gave, think
that the Princess has been having her
boots BACKED and playing red checks;
"Who is the Indian agent at your
reservation ~ asked the reporter.
lone Bill Gibson she replied with
scorn. He has employed all his
relations in the positions provided for
by the Government, such as teachers,
carpenters, blacksmiths and farmers.
But they never do anything for the
Indians. They live in idleness aud
draw their salaries regularly, The
carpenter has not driven nail for
months; the teachers never given Il
lesson; the blacksmith rarely lights II
fire in his forge, and the farmer
plough O.. s.ss5s o.oplo. 1T
a conspiracy were formed by the most
cunning men to desert aud neglect the
Indians on our reservations it could
not succeed better than the selfish
policy of Bill Gibson, the agent, and
his hungry relations. Not cent OF
the $4,000 which was appropriated
for the support of the Piules has been
spent for us. Where it has been side

A c. edi;abIe Report.

The appeal acknowledges The receipt
from Secretary Of State j. M. Dormer
copy of his report for the 18Th and
20h fiscal years. The report shows
the amounts of money and securities
on hand in each month during the two
years. 1t also contains full list of
all the members of the Constitutional
Convention, State and county officers,
District Judges, Notarfes Public, Com
missioners of Deeds for Nevada, the
names of both branches Of the Legisla-
ture since the formation of the State
government, besides much other valua-
BILE Information. As "a whole the
report is by far the most complete ever
issued from that department of the
Stale government.
The above item shows either very
remarkable coincidence Of thought, or
a singular unanimlty Of laziness among
Nevada papers. 1t about expresses
the general sentiment and would have
been stolen by this paper also, but for
an oversight, by which the name of the
Appea5 was not scratched when the item
was clipped.

''Hogadi."

An exchange says: THE big fan.
dango at Independence is over ana the
Indians have returned 10 civilized pur.
suit of hogadi" We observe that the
majority OF our Nevada exchanges
believe hocadl" to be the Pluto word
for food grub. Ii is not Il Piute word
ut all. 1t is merely a lame attempt on
the part of the Indians to pronounce
the English word "hungry." Hogadi
is about the best that the average Pluto
can do with the word. When a Piute
SAYS Heap hogaai me he means
that he is very hungry Enterprise.
The exchange to which reference is
made in The above IS the BULLETIN,
but the liugu's, of the Enterprise is
not 50 well up in the present material
and growth of the Piute language as
he would be If he were not held down
by the traditions of early Comstock
days The Piute language is progress
i've; it is both revolutionary and ,~'lC
tio4agy. !. IS - -,
of miscegenatcd English, and, at the
same time, new words, evolved from
necessity and circumstances, are being
added to the dialect. Hogad" once
meant to the Indian hungry it was,
as the critic has explained, an attempt
TO pronounce the white mans word.
BY use, however, it has come to mean
the food itself. Now, when an Indian
lady does chores for her white sisters
she stipulates that she shall receive
"hogadi," and no one for moment
supposes that she wants to 90 away
with an empty stomach. Pope's rule;
"In words, rs fashions, the same rule will
hold:
Alike fantastic if too new, or old;
Be not the first by whom the new are tried,
Nor yet the last TO lay The old aside"
Applies to the use Of "hogadi.' The
BULLETIN studlously avoided its use
until established usage made it pure
| Piute for cold victuals and coffee
grounds, while the Enterprise still
clings to its original use, refusing to
lay aside the, adjective and try the
noun.

It is said, down at Lovelock, that the
settlers are dissatisfied with the Indian
landlords of the meadows. The rail
road company gave Nachez one of the
finest farms in the valley, on condition
that be live on it and farm it, but the
settlers declare he does neither. They
assert that the land held by Nachez is

AmicabIy Settled.

PITTsBURG, Jan. 27.-A meeting of the
joint conference committees of tie National
league and American Base Ball association
justing the difficulties of the two associations
in regard to the admission of Lucas to the
National league, resulted in an amicable adj
justment Of the troubles. When the meet
ing was called to order Congressman O'Neil,
of St. Louis, presented the following from
Mr.. Won Der Abe:
To the president and directors Of the
American association The difficulties between
II. V. Lucas and myself having been amic-
ably adjusted, hereby withdraw my objec.
tons to the admission of the league club
into the city Of ST. Louis. Very respectfully,
CHRIST. Won DER ABE.
The communication, which occasioned no
surprise, was accepted and Lucas was adj
mitted Mr. Won Der Abe then presented
resolutions, which were adopted, providing
for com mittee to notify the league commit.
tee that theAmercan association had con.
scented to the admission Of the league club
into ST. Louis, and that the American ASSOC
citation favored the amendment Of section z,
Of the national agreement, as proposed by
the league A resolution was also adopted
as follows:
WHEREAS, A. G.. Spauding president of
the Chicago Base Bal, club, has siguifed a
willingness to admit the American club, of
Chicago, the American association commit
tee therefore be directed TO obtain permission
of the league to allow the American associa-
ton, if so desiring, to locate there or In any
city In which league club is located.

quently brother-in-law of hers called, and
while he expressed himself as satisfied with
the terms of the agreement, he thought it
was not right that Mrs. Rogers should have
only life estate in the homestead / told
him that while | thought the arrangement
made in regard to the matter was a wise one
and one that was dictated by the very best
intentions, yet if there was any objection by
any one would advise Mrs. Rogers to sub
NIT the whole matter to any court, or judge
without trial, and to resign his position as
trustee if the decision was adverse, and have
another appointed in his stead.
The idea of Mrs. Rogers being unprovided
for is an absurdity. She has life esate in
homestead worth 81, 500, which she can rent
for $50 per month. Besides this there
are 81, 600 in cash in Arthur Rogers hands.
The agreement gives her $1,000 in cash at
once and the interest on $4,000 until the
children become Of age, The education and
support of the children is also provided for
by this agreement, so that out of all the
money she has no one to support but herself.
The wisdom of this agreement consists in
placing this fund in the hands of responsible
persons who are capable of investing it to the
best advantage, and giving a proper ard
reasonable share of it to Mrs. Rogers without
leaving the chidren's rights unprovided for.
No two more fitting persons could be sug-
gested than Mr.. Rogers and Mr. Junk, who
are both persons of responsibility
and great business sagacity, which
is recognized by the best business men of
the state. Mr.. Arthur Rogers has for many
years held the most responsible position in
one of the most prominent business houses
in st. Paul, and the feeling between his
brother and himself was always one of re-
markable affection. Mr.. Junk was play
mate of Frank Rogers when they were chill
dren in Ireland, and they were intimate
friends up to the time of his death. Mr..
Junk is also widely known by the merchants
of this state. Although have not known Mrs.
Rogers intimately, l have always believed
her to be respectable and well meaning
lady, and believe that if she was fully in-
formed of the contents of the complaint she
would never have signed it. The complaint
is a horrible and false distortion of well
and kindly conceived plan for the benefit Of
herself and her children.

SENATE.

The senate convened at 10 o'clock yester-
day morning, and Senator Goodrich, presi-
dent pro tenpors, again presided. The chap
lain was again in his place, and the good re-
suits CT his petition were very soon made
apparent, for Senator Langdon, who has
long looked as though he needed the benefit
of PRAYER. was so sOftened in his nature by
the devotional exercises, as TO present
memorial asking that the genter sex be al
lowed to vote. Senator Comstock also seemed
to have been similarly affected, because he
presented petition asking that the liquor
question be submitted to a vote Of the people
of the state. But the senator's petition was
rather rough on the boys of convivial turn
of mind, for it proposes to make them live
six months instead Of ten days in an election
precinct before they are allowed to vote upon
the question, because it would shut out any
schemes of colonization.
Senator Clarke seems to be ably seconding
the efforts of Senator Wilson to bring the
large tracts of unoccupied railroad lands, now
untaxed, within the assessors grasp-for he
adroity calls public attention to those lands
bv introducing bill to reimburse the coun-
ties in which they are situate for the excess
of taxes they have had to pay on account Of
their not being taxed.

lengthy session, good share of the time
of which was consumed in discussing Senator
O'Brien's BILL reducing the number Of per-
emptOry challenges TO seven, which defend

upon Senator Doran's bill forbidding com
