gotten up affair, and as far as we
have used it We consider it weather
reliable. You can get your weather
here in a condensed form. We
have often thought, ourselves, OF
issuing an almanac adapted to the
climatic changes of Nevada, but
lacked the meteorological expert
ence necessary for such a work.
The snow storm department., edited
by Dan De guile, is right
abreast of the times. The rain
column is ably handled by Jeff.
Brockins of Reno, and the frost
work is done by the Foreman of
the Journal job office. The alma
nae predicts stormy times in the
State IN November, with the elliptic
Of the sack close to the polls and
the Base Range, and Washoe demi-
johns in perihelion after nightfall
in the Eastern sky.
1t predicts that the Senatorial
comet, William Stewart, will have
attained its greatest brilliancy In
mid Summer, and the second mag
nitude star, Powning, located in
the Reno constellation, will come
within the Jones orbit between
that and election.

ARE THEN SxAREeIED
1t Was Very like a Bridal Party
that Appeared at the Bald
win Theater.

win Theater.
The Post has the following: For
the past week it has been rumored
considerably about the Fourth
ward that Sarah Althea and Judge
Terry either had been married or
would be in a few days. No de-
claration Of intention has appeared
in the office of the County Clerk
but as Judge Terry is sufficiently
learned in the law to evade that
technicality no Importance is at
tached to the absence of a license
when the evidence on the other
| side is summed up. 1t might be
that Sarah Althea has accepted
Tyler's view of the law and deems
simple marriage contract sufficient
without other ceremony. The be-
lief that they are married is
strengthened by the appearance at
the Baldwin Theater recently of
what looked suspiciously like a
bridal party in one of the back
boxes. 1t was composed of Judge
Terry, in raiment rather more gor-
geous than he usually wears, and
Sarah Althea in toilet that has
pever yet been described in the
papers, therefore, presumably
new purchase, for her wardrobe
has been pretty much written up
There was also present a gentleman
whose appearance indicated the
conventional best man. Sarah
Althea sat in the front Of the box
and stared at the audience till
Henry Kowalska came in, and then
she devoted her attention to him
till Judge Terry borrowed the
glasses to glare in the direction Of
Judge Sawyer, who was also pre-
sent in the theater. Then the
Judge cast a contemptuous look at
Kowalsky, who returned it with a
glare, till Sarah Althea laughed so
loudly that she got nearly as much
attention from the house as the
stage, and Clement Bennett, in a
neighboring box, actually blushed
under the impression that some of
the opera glasses were focused on
his Classic face. Sarah Althea
bore the general inspection with
triumphant look, but Judge Terry
seemed more coy. At ten o'clock
he became more impatient, and
without waiting for the most thrill
ing scene in the drama, wrapped
Sarah Althea's mantel tenderly
around her and left the house. The
head usher remarked as they left.
That's bridal party, sure"

| A Carson man returned from tn

some Of the mono. metalists of Hi
nois. When they heard he wa:
from Nevada a crowd got around
him and began to discuss the silver
question.
The dialogue ran something like
this:
"There is a terrible silver glut al
over the country. Silver coinage
ought to be stopped
Much of silver glut about
here?" asked the Nevada man.
terrible; never saw such sur
plus in my life"
"Much of a giut with you?"
This question seemed to stagger
the Illinois gold bug, and the Ne.
vada man continued.
'Come, now, my friend, how
much silver have you about you
now?"
The crowd began to litter, and
the question being pressed. the Hi
nois man admitted that he had only
six dollars in silver.
How much silver did you ever
have crowded on you at once? was
the next query of the sagebrush
man.
The crowd laughed again and
one of the bystanders said.
Il guess forty dollars is the most
you ever had, Jack"
The gold advocate had to admit
that these were about the correct
figures. and the Nevada man
pressed the matter further:
''Did the possession of all this
silver inconvenience you much?
What are you making all this fuss
about, anyhow"
well. you see 1t is serious in
convenience to the banks"
Yes, last week in this very
town one of your banks busted and
let lot of your citizens out of
about $4,000. Wouldn't you be
devilish glad to get your deposits
paid in silver"
They all admitted that they
would hail the day,
you see, the main trouble with
that bank was that it lacked about
sixty thousand standard silver dol
lars"
All over the East where he trav-
eled he heard a good deal about
the silver glut, and the people who
hadn over four dollars in their
pockets we're doing all the talk
ing.

THE BREAK IN N0RCE.OSS.
The Public L0OsinS Confidence
in the Gazne.

| in the Game.
The Chronicle gives this lucio
explanation Of the remarkable sag
ging in Norcross:
"The decline in the price Of
shares in the middle mines contln'
ues to be the general topic of con-
versation among operators and min
ing men on the street. Here, where
the situation is understood, the
break is unaccountable, and can
only be explained on the theory
that ombination has been made
below to break the market, IN
order to brighten timid holders into
letting go of their stock, which is
quietly taken by manipulators at
low figures in anticipation of an
other rise. The existence of rich
ore on the 5000 and 800 levels of
the middle mines has been demon
strated by the developments in the
Hale & Norcross, and the conf
dence of the management is mani
tested in the operations soon to be
inaugurated by draining the Osbis-
ton shaft and sinking it to the lat
ter level"
The way the break may be better
accounted for, is by the theory that
the public are getting tired Of the
way the property is managed. For
two wears nov, everything has
been promised and nothing done in
the mine. The managers have
been all along lowering on the
verge of big ore bodies, but the
farther they push the drifts the
farther do the ore bodies recede.
Whenever there is a break, the
organs published on the waste
dump of the mines hasten to in
form their readers that there is a
job to break the stock; that the in
siders may load up before the rise.
Now, does any sane person think
that if there was really such job
that any Of the papers aforesaid
would be green enough to expose 1t
when they know that their very
existence depends upon their re-
ceiying the advertising Of the big
assessment sales at So so square?
Stocks have all gone to the dogs
because the outsiders want SO per
cent. Of the profits of mining, and
the only mines in which there is
now any ore are run by private
parties, who take every dollar there
is in the ore and let the milling to
themselves at big profits, and the
stockholders merely pay the assess
ments. The milling proposition is
the big proposition now, and that's
where the money all goes; squeez-
ing cash cut of low grade ore.
This system of finance is like
this:
A B and c 90 into partnership.
A represents the public furnishing
the money; B runs the mine, and c
runs the mill. They take out s.
rock and C mills it for Sc ton,
dividing with B. 1t costs the ex-
ira dollar to take it out. At the
end of the year B and c have all
the profits and own the mine and
the mill, while A, the public, has
been paying all the assessments.
This is the beautiful game that
has been played on the public in
California and Nevada for years,
but meyer so unblushingly as now.
