NEVADA INVENTIONS.
How They Have Been Aprropri
atei in the East.

IteG IN thr East.
A few weeks ago this Office gave
a description Of a new method OF
propelling steamboat invented by
George Mclaughlin of this city and
patented by a man in New York.
The last number Of the Scientific
American of Dec. 10th contains H.
Illustrations of new combination OF
a railroad and balloon claimed to be
an invention of Gen. Thayers.
About eight years ago the model
Of precisely the same invention was
exhibited by Comstock mechanic
in a carpenters shop on c street
near Cooper's dancing hall.
The idea was to lay two cables
over the country regardless of sur
veys, mountains or valleys and al
lowing the track to take the con-
formation of the country. A bal
loon fastened to truck with the
wheels under the track was to be
propelled by steam. The buoyancy
of the balloon lifted the track up
about fifty feet in air and let it
down again as it passed along. The
models of this machine were exhib-
tied to hundreds of people and the
inventor who did not ever have
enough money to receive a patent
tried to get capitalists to help him
but could not induce any Of the
rich men of the Comsteck to adj
vance cent.
Then the invention comes to the
front again and has been endorsed
by the British Government as a
quick and convenient method OF
transporting guns aad troops over
stretches of country which would
be impossible to large bodies OF
men and munitions Of war.
In the same paper is also an IL
lustration of new method of irri'
rigation by underground pipes pat
ented by E. Briggs, of Coleman
Texas This same method was
used in this city over year ago by
Mr.. Spurgeon, but of course he
neglected to secure a patent.

WASHINGTON, Dec. pa new
candidate has appeared for the
Postoffice of San Francisco. Sena-
tor Stanford has received a number
of letters urging him to recommend
J. NJ. DAVIS, of the Pacific Saw
Manufacturing Company of San
Francisco. DAVIS friends say that
he is Past Commander of the
Grand Army of the Republic, and
expects to get the place by aid OF
the soldier element, and StanA kd
is urged to support him, but it is
believed that Stanford will not
take a hand in the fight at all. If
he does he will probably support
one of the candidates already IN
the field.

A Grub stalker Gets ON Deck.
W. H. Burns of this city, about
month ago purchased good
mine in the Victoria district at
Schurz, near Hawthorne. The pur-
chase was made of Dudly and Wal
kott, and since the transfer, a suit
has been brought by man named
Swart, against Dudly and Walkott,
who demands third interest on
the grounds that he furnished the
original grub stake for the locators,
and the locators never settled for
the same. The ledge is fourteen
inches wide and assays about s.
600 ton, promising to become a
very valuable property. The case
will come up for hearing before
Judge Murphy at Hawthorne.

A TatHVTE TO MCCARTHY
A Man, who Practiced what Re
Preached.


At a recent meeting of the Typo
graphical Union of San Francisco.
a series of resolutions were adopted
in respect to the memory OF the
late d. f. Mccarthy. Among
others was the following.
"Resolved, That when Dennis B..
Mccarthy left the ranks OF the
journeyman and became an EN-
ployer, he maintained and carried
out the principles which he had be-
fore contended that 'the laborer Is
worthy of his hire" He continued
in sympathy with those with whom
he had hitherto acted, and, with
willing and generous hand, con-
coded to all in his employ every
rightful demand and the fullest
compensation that the most exact
ing could ask.
Mr.. McCarthy's business integ
rity was answering under all cir
cumstances. 1t is out of no disre-
spect to the deceased that the fol-
lowing is related, but Simply to
show the one idea uppermost in
his mind-that of paying what he
owed.
He was very convivial in his
nature, and when in liquor would
borrow money from everybody. and
also lend it ri ght and left. The writ
err has known him to borrow money
under these circumstances from as
many as a dozen different persons
| and lend it to as many more. The
| next day when his mind was clear
he could recollect every man from
whom he had borrowed money, and
would pay the exact sum, but curl
ouslv enough, his mind would be a
total blank regarding the people to
whom he had loaned money. BY
reason of this popularity, design
ing men took advantage of him fol
considerable sums.
Early in life he started a weekly
newspaper in San Francisco, and
it failed, leaving Mccarthy heavily
in debt. He devoted years to set
ting these claims, asking no rebate
or favors. He gave bis note te
Francis & Valentsne for $500, bu
could not pay it and it became out
lawed. One day the firm came
across the note, and Mr.. Valentino
remarking that it was outlawed
was about to destroy it saying, M
man in this country pays an out
lawed note" a friend of McCar
thy being present at the time, said
IF you have a note against ID. II
Mccarthy For $500 it is good 70
the face if it has been outlawed TO
twenty years. He has recent,
done we'll in stocks, and the not
is good
Acting on this advice they sen
the note to Virginia City and tn
amount came back by the mex
mail.
Men who pay outlawed notes ar
very scarce now, and their death
should command more than pas
sing notice.

of twenty-five senators expire in March,
1887, and where they are from states whose
Legislatures are to be elected biennally,
their successors must be selected by the leg
islatures chosen this fall The Democrats
are confident that with care they may
secure enough of these to gain cOntrel of
the senate. Of the twenty-five senators
whose terms will expire on the Sd OF March,
1887, seventeen are Republicans and eight
are Democrats. The Republicans are
Messrs. Miller of California, Hawley, Har-
rison, Hale, Dawes Conger, Mcmillan,
Van Wycl1, Sewell, Miller of New Y York,
Sherman, Mitchell, Aldrich, Edwards,
Malone and Sawyer. The Democrats are
Messrs. Gray, Jones of Florida, German
COckrell, Fair jackson, MaXey and Gam
den. According to Democratic calculations
their party may count confidently upon
electing successors to eight of the nine who
go out on their side They count Della
ware, Florida, Maryland, Mississippi, Wis
consin, Tennessee, Texas, and West Vir-
ginia as safe to elect Democratic senators
and admit that of the nine outgoing Demo-
Gratis the seat Of only Fair OF Nevada is at
all doubtful. With regard to the sixteen
retiring Republicans, Democrats contend
that eight of them can by replaced by
Democrats by good management. 1t is
claimed that in California (Miller), Connec-
ticut (Hawley), Indiana (Harrison), Mich
igan (Conger), New Jersey (SewelD, New
York (Miller), Ohio (Sherman), and Vir-
ginia (Mahone), Democratic legislatures
may be elected. If the Democrats could
succeed in making their estimates hold good
they would gain nine senators and lose one,
which would give them a majority in the

MILAN is quietly sojourning in the city for a

who is in school at SeWicklery, Penn. The
senator was asked whether there had been
any change in the Republican senatorial
disposition toward confirming Democratic
appointments. Il think not" he said.
The Republican party cannot afford to be
stigmatiZed by the people as an ObsTuc-
zionist party. The question will be as to
each appointee's fitness for the selected
places" The senator thought no special
conflict would arise over cases OF suspen-
sion.
The total internal revenue collections for
the year ending June 80 in Minnesota just
obtained, shows total amount of tax of
$s492, 704. This was derived as follows: from
the tax Oh spirits $1O5, 632, of which amount
the tax Oh retailing was 500, 439, wholesale
81, $50; from beer $271, ,935, being 81

PHILADELPHIA, Pa, Sept 12.-As the

their homes yesterday afternoon eleven more
OF them were discharged each one discharged
receiving notice to that effect as he or she
passed out. This morning ten of the cul-

said that, being Republicans, they were
afraid of receiving a summary notice of
their removal. There were no charges
against them. they said, and they had
under them new hands, recently appointed
in the mint for instruction. They desired
some protection they said, that they would
not be interfered with unless for cause.
Chief Steele told them he would COM
municate with Superintendent Fox, which
he did. The men in the meantime returned
to their room, but not to work until they
heard from the superintendent. About
noon each one of the ten received a note

are that several cowboys had threatened the
marquis life on sight, one O'Donald being
particularly vehement. The marquis. be-

sheensheaa Rax Races.

New YORK, Sept. 12.-Much dissatisfac-
ton was expressed by the betting men to-
day at the decisions of the judges in two of
the races at Sheepshead Bay. In the fifth
race, Cleaner was slightly fouled by
Pericles. The latter came in first, and
Bella, who was innocent of any wrong, was
second. The first place, however, was
given to Cleaner. The steeplechase, in
view of the betting and the way the race
was run, was pronounced transparent fraud
Brough Burke, COchrane and Sun Star
were strong favorites. The bookmakers
laid their wagerS with view to Trombone
as the winner, and he won, for though the
other two had much the best speed and led
the field far away, their riders allowed
them to run out of the course, and from
bone galloped in and was given the race.
First Race-For non winners, one and one
eighths miles; Monogram won by a length,
Parole second Modesty third. Time, 1:5SI [.
Second Race-For three-year old penalties
and allowances, one mile; Seriedale won by a

Third Race-A handicap sweepstakes, one
and fve-eighths miles; pools sold, Bob Miles
$50 Binette S40 Tolu SIS, Enigma $40. This
| race was fine contest between Bob Miles,
Binette and Tolu. Enigma laid back and
kept quiet until rounding into the back
stretch. She then made gallant rush and
was first out, Binette, the Californian, beat
her by length, she beating Tolu, who was
| third by two lengths. Time, 2:54A.
