twirls his cane like Bcnu Brummel--
such one looks with n sort Of roilncd

115,O00 in tho dictionary with which TO
answer her; and if pretty girl spcaks
to him, those half-dozen tsko flight.

Tho graceful boy has no such trouble
The old ladies whisper, "How polite
and gentlemanly;" tho young ladies' arc
charmed everybody likes him socially;
ho is intensely popular.
Bu' there is no r,agon that tho awls-
ward boys noed be discouragedI Smart
boys arc most always awkward. Shal-
low boys, as q general rulo, nre
graceful.
Ina few years, when the awkward boy
is walking, rpossibly riding down to his
place Of business, he will be very liable
to pass his graceful rival of nm cfr.ier
date carrying his dinnor-pail to his
work. When ho is mayor, the grace
ful boy will come--not half rs grace
fully as in the o,d time-and ask him
for chance TO work on the streots.

chum may possibly aspire to DO his
private secretary, but il is probable
that he will not even have arison to
such an estate as that. The awkward
boys have very graceful knacE of ris-
ing in tho ranks. Perhaps it is the
youthful habit of stumbling about that
enables them so often to stumble into
our thiry-eight gubernatorial chairs, or
into the White House.
But this is not written to glorify awk-
wardness. Awkwardness is perhaps
natural to the callowness of thoughtful
youth, but n boy should get over it rs

"A valuable deposit of anthracite coal
has been discovered on tue Humboldt
liver, near Exc, and is being developed
ly IL strong company, which cl inns it
figure per ton than is now charged per
cord for wood
Now we are not disposed to detract
one jot or title from the unbounded
mineral wealth of our State, neither do
We believe thnt it is justice to the poo
] IL of other States to make tlIims
which are unsupported by the fncts;
and if "n valuable deposit of anthracite
coal has been discovered hear Elko,"

Hnrper's statement is as near the truth
~ would be the announcement that
Nevada is noted for her imm ense
forests Of valuable timber. 1t is true
that shale, mineral deposit which Is
used ms fuel to some extent, is found in
abundance near Elko, and it is believed
that it will prove valuable in the manu-
fucture of gas, but as for anthracite
"""l. I've cnn only wish that the
Chronicles announcement were true.
