John Mackay's Millions.

Anew York correspondent Of the Buffalo
Express writes: John W. Mackay con-
tinues 10 be one of the multiple-million-
aires commonly pointed out to loungers
in the hotels and street. He is here a
good Part OF the time. l asked him il il
was trre that he had been supernsturally
helped to wealth by a %leprahaun. There
are thousands OF Irishmen who think SO,
l have no doubt" was the ex-Californian's
laughing reply. 1.-THE le~prahsun is a
creature Of Ireland's mythology. He
is supposed to be a sprite who makes
the fairies shoes, and Notwithstanding
his humble trade he is acquainted
with all the hidden treasures OF
the earth. He will reveal them to who.
ever asks him in a sufficiently captivating
manner. II you are ever lucky enough to
come across a leprahaun dom. let him &c,
out OF your sight, else your chance to in.
ferview him is gone forever. No second
glimpse is ever obtained. Well, the Irish
peasantry believe in this myth. and long
residence in America doesn't eradicate il
from their minds. The Irishmen among
the miners of Nevada generally had the
idea that my success in the Comstock
lode was due to an encounter with a lepra.

The Truckee Concert Hall.

The Truckee Concert Hall was crowded
last night with an appreciative audience,
the occasion being the opening night Of
the season. The new talent from San
Francisco we're we'll received and heartily
encored. In the first part Miss Irene
Orsman sang the very pretty ballad,
Wont you kiss me good night, little
darling" and the manner in which it was
received made evident the fact that she
had found q very warm place In the hearts
of her audience. Miss Minnie Hallock
sang Pretty red rose" very nicely and
received a well merited encore. Ike Levan-
thal's song, "Tell all the children
good-bys'' was SUM- in Ike's inimitsble
style. and was roundly %spplauded. George
Elston's reception was q hearty one, and
the name in which he sung "Gunboat
Sam" brought down the house, 80 to
speak. His political and hand-grenade
gags were original and good. Miss Viola
Sherman, IA usual, made a very favorable
impression with her songs, as did also Louis
Book. The acts performed, The Chinese
servants and 1.-THE monkey" occasioned
a good deal of mirth. Altogether the per-
Torrance was very creditsble and thor
oughly enjoyed by the large number

troubles and contests with the Indians in

ticularly in the Pyramid Lake wal under

The heaviest claim is that of L. M. Pearl.

but with the interest added il reaches the
respectable sum Of $50, 488.
One man has an item in his bill: "For
standing up for Piute Indians to shoot at
Sl0O." Another claimant testified that he
walked from Wadsworth to Virginia City

been straight since. On offering to put
hir toe nails in as evidence, the Attorney

Vn.sNext Comet visitation.

The next member Of the cometic family
expected to return TO perihelion in this
year Of grace is Tuttle's comet. 1t seems
to occupy a position Of its own, having a
nariod OF 13k years, and therefore rank
ing neither with comets Of a long period
nor with those of a short period. 1t was
frat discovered by Mechain in 1898, and
redisc ,vered by Tuttle in 1858, when its
~periodicity was recogr lied. 1t was observed
in 1871, passing its perihelion in Novem.

THE M0NTANAWAY.

A GAINESVILLE, Tex, dispatch, says:
Yesterday the l%ynching Of five horse
thieves was reported, in addition to
the recent report, that fifteen have
been hanged in two weeks. Efforts
to substantiate the last mentioned re-
port resulted in the positive proof Of
the hanging a week ago, near Yates
town, Of Frank Morgan, Bill Viii
lians and a boy named Moore. Bill
Williams, q farmer living near Mud
Greek, was suspected and persons
were detailed to watch him. When
it was learned that Williams had I'M
lawfully taken possession of another
mans horse, thirty-two determined
men visited his house and arrested
him, He bid his family an afffaction-
ale farewell and told them that If he
did not return in two days they might
know he was dead. He was then led
several mules away into the woods,
where they were met By another par
ty having in charge Frank Morgan
and the boy Moore. BY. II unani-
nous vote they decided to hang Nor
gan and Williams. Some contended
that by reason of the boys youth it
was best to turn him loose, with a
moderate punishment, but it was fl
nally decided as there were great
probability Of his becoming a dan
gerous criminal better he should die.
According ali three rne1 were strung

the summer at the White House. The
Cabinet officers do not propose 5to
leave their respective Departments
for any length of time, nor do any of
the new officials. Department clerks
are afraid 70 indulge IN their annual
holiday Of a month with pay, lest
their places be secured during alb
sence By democrats. Many society
people have decided to enjoy their ell
eggant homes in quiet during the sum
mer, instead of seeking the dis-com-
forts Of crowded resorts, Altogether
there is little indication Of the Capt.
tai being deserted even during the
heated term.
The most intense anxiety prevails
throughout official and clerical circles,
as tho fiscal year draws to a close.
The first Of July, the beginning of
the new year is expected to witness
many changes. Attorney General
Garland has discharged his entire
force Of assistant attorneys and exam
iners during the week, besides anum-
Dor Of other officials. Secretary Man
ming is dismissing employees rapidly,
several dozen having been removed
yesterday. Each member Of the Cab
met is besieged by petitioners for Of
fee. Truly the life of the new Cab
met is a troubled one.
