A Love Affair Adroitly Managed.


Clara Belle tells the Cincinnati En-
quirer how New York swell extricated
himself from an embarrassing love affair.
A mashingly handsome friend of mine
was so potent in his love making re-
Gently that he got three girls simultane-
ously into sentimental condition which
lacked only the formal questions and
answers to complete betrothals. Then
he realized for the first time that no had
an abundance Of wife material at
his command. Mighty nice girls they
were, oil three. and il was still with
some difficulty that be finally made
choice for himself What was he to
do with the othersp He didn't want TO
fracture their hearts. lie came 10 me
for advice. LET me manage it," said
|. "If you suddenly jill them they'll
get mad about it, and perhaps lose the
whole summer by moping OF course
they'd come around all right by next
winter, and catch on with two fellows
every whit as good as you. But the
thing can DO fixed BETTER" And so it
has been. within month from the time
when my agency began. gave the
most careful attention to the affair
First. ! picked out two fellows to re-
place the original in the girls affections
and adroitly introduced them. Second
ly, instructed the latter chap just how
fast and in what manner TO make show
of flirting with the maiden of his choice
The result was that | managed to trans
fer two feminine hearts neatly, and all
the while they thought they were volun-
tarily throwing their old sweetheart over
board One Of them actually pitied
him. and almost spoiled my job by telling
him so-for that wounded his vanity.
What is wanted in sentimental under
takings is adroitness.

WHO GOT THE MONEY

At the last session $3.50 was ap
propriated for the purpose Of put
ting the halls of the Legislature in
order for the present session.
The only change in their appear
ance that can be discovered is that
the litter of paper has been clea aed
up and the chairs busted.
If any body got $3.50 for that it
was too much. Considering the
amount Of work put in the rooms
seven dollars and half would be
big money for the service per-
formed. The walls are dingy and
ought to be kalsomined, and the
place has dusty unkept appear
ance, quite at variance With an ex-
pendturc of $3.50.
While the members are bent on
stopping leaks, they might ascer-
tain where the money has gone.

fact that an inefficient Justice was
victimized by smart lawyer.
In some counties the fees of a
Justice do not amount to 5 80 a
year, and the taxpayers certainly
cannot expect much of a man who
was only receiving this miserable
stipend. In our opinion a law pro-
viding for salaries of Justices of
the Peace, would result in better
administration of the laws. Let
the sum vary in different precincts
according to the number of voters
in the precinct; setting it at say
$40 a month for every 100 voters.

A UNSUPPORTED MAN.

The correspondent of the Sa
Francisco Chronicle for the pres
ent session of the Legislature ha
begun his work by an attack on tn
APPEAL as follows:
The main light of the sessio
will be over the Prison wardenshi
bill. The present and the onl
thing so far urged against his can
didacy is the charge made by tn
APPEAL of this city, that he ha
been too economical with the Stat.
money! charge novel enough un
der most circumstances, but reall.
considered a serious imputation ii
aState where almost every man be
lieves in the absolute cutting Of
the State Treasury as long as it car
be done inside the law. To wit
ness the unanimity of support
which this pernicious doctrine re-
ceives would astonish those unac-
customed to Nevada ways and
methods.
The APPEAL never charged War
den Bell with economy, but with
extravaganza. It was net meant to
be extravaganza, but its result was
the same. Had the Chronicle cor
respondent taken the pains to look
over the back files of the APPEAL
instead of listening to the talk Of
interested parties, he would have
had a more intelligent idea of just
what the APPEAL did say relatiye
to Bells administration.
When Warden, in order to save
$500 worth of wood, leads the con-
victs out to cut sage brush, and one
escapes and the State has to pay a
reward of $500 and somebody's
travelling expenses for his capture,
we set that down as a piece Of ex-
trayagance by which the State loses
over $500. When guards are dis
charged to reduce expenses and an
other man escapes that is more e1-
travagance.
When bookkeepers are made to
do guard duty that is not economy
but parsimony.
When the convicts assemble and
make a demand of the Warden
that the guards be changed because
the convicts refuse to serve their
terms under a guard they dislike
and the Warden acceeds to their
demands, that is economy in one
sense-economy of the backbone
and executive force necessary to
run such an institution.
When the tools in the shoe-shop
are worn down almost to the shanks
and a. few new ones bought as pos
sible in order to enable the War
den to turn back . few thousand
dollars into the State Treasury and
not spend the entire appropriation,
that is not economy, for the sue
cessor of Bell, or Bell himself if
he is his own successor, will be
obliged tc expena = considerable
sum for new tools or close the shop.
The APPEAL is not calling for a
cutting of the Treasury, but it
believes that there is enough
money in the Treasury to do things
properly and pay good prices for
work we'll done.
1t is opposed to a picayunish ad-
ministration in anything in State
affairs. In making an appropria-
ton the Legislature mem
beers through their committees, are
careful to weigh such matters ad-
visedly-sets aside such an amo INT |
of money as it believes will be nee
essary to cover the expenses and
expects such appropriation to be |
used as it directs.
If this doctrine is ''pernicious"
it is a new way to look at the mat
ter

At each session of the Legisla-
ture, numerous bills are introduced
which provide for changes in the
act which regulates proceedings
in Justice Courts. Every subject
is touched upon except the salary
of the Justice, which is allowed to
be provided for by a system of feas
which, during the year amount to
almost nothing. Out of the suits
which come up in the Justice
Courts, and the various criminal
proceedings all of these officers get
a dab, and the Justice, the most
important of them all, secures
fee which is out of all proportion
to the amount of services which he
renders.
Thus it is that 1t is very hard to
get man to run for Justice Of the
Peace.
Many people imagine that the
duties Of the Justice are trivial,
when in reality many important
trials have their origin in this
Lower Court. The preliminary ex-
aminations of murderes take place
here and . red handed criminal

manufacturer. The widows daughte
often visited Mr.. divers house, and
about year ago handed her mother q
note, purportiDg to be from Mr.. Oliver
In which a small loan WAS asked.
This WAS granted, and was folio wed
by another note, which led the widow
to believe that Mr.. Oliver WAS pleased
with her. AS he had lost his wife bu,
short time before, Mrs. Manpfthough,
well of his discretion In not calling, and
belle tved he had taken this method oil
signfying his friet dship for her. This
was followed by more notes from the
hand OF the daughter, purporting to be
from Mr.. Oliver, asking for sm ali loa ns
all OF which were granted. The nexl
no Q brought by the girl was addressed
:" My Dear Wife," and Mrs. Mann. In
her reply, addressed Mr. Oliver as Ny
Dear Husband.
The girls next freak was to place q
gold ring on her mothers finger, which

Another note pro posed marriage, and
| still another suggested that the widow
consult minister. Finally Mrs
Mann ordered bridal outfit, and, az
Mr. Oliver did not call around to claim
his bride, some gentleman called upon
him to explain. This led to the ex
posure Of the girls scheme. She made
a clean breast of the whole matter
stating that she had destroyed all tn,

that she had spent the money for III.

TH|R D EDITION,
a Nest Of Demo rr attic nascsis.

WAsHlNaToN, Aug. 1.-THE first in
vestigation that the new Administra-
tion made resulted, rs was expected ,
in catching a nest OF Democrats. The
Coast Surveys has been Democratic
institution and has been otficered by
Democrats for years, and the men who
have been detected in the Irregularities
which have been brought to light are
Democrats. In connection with this
Investigation, 1t may be stated that
when the subject OF the consolidation
OF the scientific bureaus was brought
up In Congress, Ii was urged by Mr..
Randall and others Of the Appropria-
ton Committee, and when the joint
resolution of investigation passed II
was suppo sed that the special COM
nitt,e would be tA zen from member, !,
Of that committee.
In tho Senate Messrs. Allison and
Hale and Democrat, all members OF
the Appropriations Com m ittee, were
appointed, but in the House, Messrs
Lowry, otIndlana; Herbert, ofAlabama,
ana Lyman, of NJ Massachusetts,, were ap
poi u ted, neither one of whom was q
member OF the House Appropria tions
Com ittee.
Some surprise at the appointment,
was expressed In the House, and Mr.
Blackburn, who was speaker pro tenn,
explained that the names had been left
with him by Speaker Carlisle. Mr.
Lyman frankly confessed that he had
been designated to look after the in
terests Of the Coast Survey, and the de
veiopements of the recent Investigation
show that J udge Lowry was also deep
lylinterested in that institution. The
conaol!dation did not take place.
In the examination just made it ii
found that Judge Lowry's private sec
rstary was borne on the rolls of the
Coast Survey but rendered practically
no service in that bureau, his time
b4ing occupied in attending to the
business of the Judge. Similar sine
cures for others with Democratic in.
huence wss also said to have been dis
covered. Not one of the officials i'm.
plicated is said to be Republican. un
