A Serious and Probably Fatal
Accident,

Yesterday afternoon about one o'clock
Wesley Beal and B. l. thurman started
together from town for the Sutro ranch
for the purpose of bringing up couple
of mules. They were in light buggy
drawn by single horse. When near
the gate leading into the ranch the
horse became frightened at the sight of
a Chinaman with some baskets over
his shoulder, began to run. When a
short distance this side of the gate Tur.
man jumped out. Beal, however, re.
NAMED in the buggy until he was
thrown out, and his head struck the
gate post with fearful force. Truman
upon regaining his feet found Beal in an
unconscious condition with blood run.
ming from his nose and ears. 1t being
some distance to the house, and being
afraid to leave the injured man alone,
Truman stayed with him for about three
hours when an Indian came along who
was Immediately sent with message 10
George Rammelkamp. Mr.. X came
with wagon and brought Beal to town.
DIR. Hazlett was Immediately called in
and DR.. Bronson was also telcgraphed
for, but little could be done by them
to relieve the sufferer. 1t is thought
that the skull is fractured. AS we go
to press Beal is still lying in an uncon.
scious state.

The American Meteorological journal
pays kevada's Governor the following
compliment: The Carson City Meteor
oliglcal Observatory is the private en-
terprise Of Charles ". Friend 1t has
heretofore, for some years been aided
by the State, but a bill continuing this
aid at the last Legislature was vetoed
by Governor Adams and failed to be-
come law. Governor Adams reason
for the veto was that it was Of no use
to the Sac. This is short-sig hted and
indicates a lack OF appreciation, aud
even OF intelligence, which would not
be expected in the Governor Of a State.
We think that Nevada should neat time
select Governor who would be more
appfeciative OF its best interests. The
climate Of that State is peculiar and of
remarkable interest. II is undoubtedly
more true of Nevada than of any other
State that it cannot expect rapid and
general development OF its agricultural
possibilities until its climate is thorough.
ly understood, and we think that its
agricultural possibilities are now un-
derestimated by the general public.
The failure of the small stipend from
the Stale will not, fortunately for it,
prevent Mr.. Friend from pursuing his
Important work.

Prolific Cows.

A correspondent sends communica-
ton to US, says the National Ltve- Stock
Journal, on prolific Short horn COW,
owned by his daughter, that gave birth
to triplets, and ten months after to
twins, making five calves in ten months.
This is, SO far as we know, the most
rapid case Of increase ever recorded.
We have heard of a Polled Angus COW
having twins thrice in fve years, and of
course occasional twins are by no means
rare. The tendency to throw twins
seems to be hereditary in some families,
and il this tendency does not prove
over-taxing to the constitution Of the
mother, it is very profitable 10 the
breeder. 1t is true that where there
are twin calves of different sexes, the
female is generally non. breeder, but
while this is a disappointment, the
breeder is Just as much better off as if
he had steer calf IN addition 10 his
bull. Inasmuch as the tendency to get
twins has sometimes proved hereditary,
it would be wise for the breeder to re.
tain his twin heifers for his own use in
breeding, and thus get the benefit should
any Of them prove to inherit this profit
able trait. Yet the tendency in Nature
to preserve equilibrium is so strong that
we do not think the double advantage
OF getting twins and of a long career as
breeder is liable to occur in the same
animal, except very rarely. Where a
COW is not bred too young, and is kept
in good health and properly cared for,
she will usually, if good breeder,
continue to breed for a good many
years. 1t would surprise most people
greatly to see the result of a calcula-
ton showing the product of single
COW in ten years where, say onc.half Of
her increase were females.

E1snernldn Items.

The following items Of interest are
from the Walker Lake Bvkletin of last
Wednesday:
The North Star mine is still putting
out good ore.
Five men have been set to work in
the Mount Cory.
Henry Livingston is taking rich rock
out of the Silver Brick.
There are rumors Of big enterprises
on foot in the neighborhood of Hav-
thorne.
J. l.. Stoner intends to begin, in a
few days, personal charge of his mine
at Coryville.
The Snow Bird tunnel has been run
ming across ledge matter for $50 feet
and has at last cut an eight foot ledge.
Last Saturday Superintendent Arents
OF the Mount Cory, returned and made
prospects brighter for Coryvllle by let
ting a contract for prospecting work in
the mine. Good miners think there is
an excellent chance to uncover another
large body of ore, and Coryville resi-.
dents are rejoicing over the promise of
renewed life and activity.

Knocked Out.

Last Wednesday two employees at the
Rock Point mill had a dispute about the
amount OF work that each did in shift.
and one of them, Mcdonald, claimed
that his partner, Lindenbaum, was $50
jering" on him. This angered the Ger
man, and after some hard words Nc
Donald was knocked into the slum tank
and somewhat bruised. Both men are
now taking their Summer vacation.

Keep Up the Agitation.

The friends Of silver are acting as
though they felt that there is no more
danger Of decentralization next Winter
than there has been for several years
past. They are quiescent. They are
discussing matters OF secondary impor.
lance, and when the organized gold con-
spiracy makes a tigers spring at their
threats, they will be unprepared. A
vast majority of the people OF .he
country are in favor OF silver, as was
shown wheT the subject was thoroughly
agitated previous to the passage of the
Bland bill. Agitation helps the silver
cause. The gold men can only succeed
by stealth, and it is the par; Of wisdom
on our pari 20 endeavor to unmask the
still hunt they are undoubtedly making.

The tin mine excitement in Antelope
Valley is not only undated, but is in
creasing. Five experienced tin miners
examined the ledge few days ago and
tested the rock, and Immediately pro.
nounced it tin-bearing ore. The ledge
is from eighty to one hundred feet wide
and Of unknown length. The discov-
erers have made five locations and be.
lieve they have something very rich.

The Pioneer saloon has been reopen

BAKING POWDER TER|AIIlMIlPS.

The danger to the public health from the ndis-
powders of commerce has been so fully exposed that
everybody desires to avoid their further use
The proprietors of some of the worst of these pow
ders are now going from house to house. trying by
means of trick so-caled test with heat and water,
to show that their article is good the Royal
Baking Powder which everybody knows is absolutely
supply their goods in place of the favorite Royal,
which housekeepers have for many years relied upon
to produce light, wholesome and palatable food.
The housekeeper will do well to be on her guard
against these baking powder tramps Every intelligent
person knows that any goods peddled from house to
house in this manner, or that given away in
pies or sought to be introduced by secretly traducng
the character of other goods well known be pure and
reliable have no merits Of their own and have failed
to find purchasers through Legitimate means
As a matter of fact, Of these ramps is trying to
introduce powder that has been found by the Govern
ment chemist to be 1885 per cent lime and the other
pcddlc8 powder that is 30 per cent aum-one pow
qrful caustic the other corrosive poison.
No such tricks jugglery deceive any one.
The crucial test that the Royal Baking Powder has
undergone during the last quarter of century-the
test of actual and successful work the preparation
of pure and wholesome food under which has never
vet faed-is entirely satisfactory to the practical
housekecpcr. She has always had good luck with
it in making light sweet, and delicious bread biscuit
and cake, and has placed it, to stay at the head of
her housekeeping favorites The Royal Baking Pow
der has the reputation everywhere of being the best
and the only pure baking powder made, and the
baking powder tramp who attempts to supplant its
place in the confidence Of the housekeeper will find
this bad year for his business

death OF Gen. Geo. b. Mcclellan. Be-
low We give the. resolutions:
WHEREAS, L. a dlspensation of q wise
Providence, General George B. McClel-
lon has been summoned into the realms

Res0lced, That we are again reminded
of the fact that the great reaper cloves q

to realize the mortality of man, the
ieeting course of human life and the
certainty of the grave.
Resoloed, That we mour the great
departed as comrades mourn a brave
soldier, as the citizen monrns the loss
of a true, dignified aud honorable asso-
ciate, and as his kindred grieve over the
death OF a kind husband and an affec-
%tionate parent.
Resolued, That in the death of Gen
lS'aA oSo' ~ ulCSlSiluu, tlS SURVIVORS Vi
the grand old army of the Potomac have
lost their first and their last living com
mander. That be it was who first taught
them lessons of warfare on the victorious
fields of Williamsburg, Fair Oaks
Hanover Court House, Mechanicsville,
Malvern Hill, South Mountain and An
tietam; fields that shed a lnstre on the
name Of Mcclellan ever amid the gloom
OF the failure of the great campaign
initiated for the capture of Richmond
and he it was who always retained tht
love, friendship and supreme regard O
the thousands of brave men who fol
lowed him, not only on the toilsomt
march, but into the fire and smoke O
the red field of battle.
Resotoed, That we deeply sympathizt
with the bereaved and stricken family
Of the dead soldier in this, the hour o
their great affection, invoking to thei
aid the consolation of the God of battles
Reso1rsd, That these resolutions b,
