SOUND rO ".

Nevada is bound to come to the front
in the neal future as one Of the richest
little States in the Union. We wonder
If our people have noticed OF late how
much interest is being taken in our cop
per mines; how the deposits OF gypsum
and marble in the State are being located;
how our salt aud borax marshes are at
tracing attention, and how our sgricul-
tural country is increasing III value Ii
they have not il is time they had. for it
will not be many years before all these
interests will be valuable and will make
the State more prosperous. Our silver
mining interests are also looking brighter,
and if by any means the price Of silver
can be brought back to its real value,
there will be more dividend paying mines
in the State than ever before. Fasteners
are beginning to look to Nevada for boraI
supplies, and the large gypsum deposits
will soon probably be q source OF revenue
to the parties who were sensible enough
to hold on to them. The finest marble
quarries anywhere in the United States
have been found in Nevada, and when
railroad and transportation facilities be.
come better, will also prove valuable to
their owners. Our mica mines will yet
astonish some people, for few seem to be
aware that there are any deposits Of this
character in the State, and how valuable
they really are. The outside world will
soon be calling on US for all these thinRs.
and how they will be astonished TO find
| that Nevada. the State they supposed 10
be the jumping off place of the world,
can furnish them.-Lyon County Times.

joyed in Eureka in a long time was
the progressive Eureka party given in
honor OF Mrs. A. NJ. Welles (nee

ty-four of our most experienced play
ers engaged in this enjoyable game,
that All Sin played with a smile that
was child-like and bland" from 9
o'clock until midnight. At its conclu-
sion beautiful hand-wrought prizes
were awarded; the presentation OF
the "booby" prizes creating consid-
cradle merriment. One, a huge stick
OF che wing taffy, labeled Licked
and the other a set Of jack-stones with
the motto, Practice makes perfect
The souvenirs OF the evening, in
"a pretty %colors, will recall to all the
guests a merry gathering. Departures
were made at 2 O'Clock A. NJ.

Is it not better to nip consumption,
the greatest scourge OF humanity, in
the bud, than to try to stay its pro-
gress on the brink OF the grave? \
few doses OF California's most useful
production, Santa Able, the king OF
consumption, will relieve, and a
thorough treatment will cure. Nasal
catarrh, too often the forerunner of

WHITE PINE MAIL sEayICr.
"Our Augur 10 MOT I'm the wrong
Hofe.~

Our big neighbor (the SESTISEL) At
the other end of the route. who
sereneiy reposes in the luxury OF a
daily mail with the outside world that
has not been between thirty and forty
hours behind time for over a month,
takes us to task for daring TO call at
tention 20 this outrage perpetrated on
a community, and finds excuses for
those who are doing us and the
Government great injustice. This
same SENTINEL, who can raise hi
over an alleged outrage in one issue
apd :" buttoa up its lip forever, is
respectfully reminded that this
mail business is our growl-that il is
founded on right and justice-and we
don't propose TO " button up" on it
either las it did on tire Paroni easel
till the wrong is righted.-White Pine
News.
The statement that the SENTINEL
made in regard to the White Pine
mail service was predicated on infor-
nation received at this end OF the
line. We know that delayed mails
are very vexatious, and TO none more
so than country editors, and for the
sake Of argument, in this connection,
we will admit that the SENTINEL /" got
its augur in the wrong hole" But
what has that mail business to do
with the Paroni case? At the time of
the commission of the act the SEN
TrSEL denounced the =" tar brigade in
the strongest possible terms. Why
the perpetrators have not been
brought to justice the SENTINEL is not
prepared to say. Possibly they will
be in due time. However, we are not
in the detective business. The county
employs officers whose business it is
TO look after these matters. And now,
brother Davis, if you don't feel in
clined to i" button up" you a just
trot along with your trousers down.

A successful Drummer.

A st. Louis drummer, taking refuge
from the recent blizzard, entered a
tumble-down hut on the roadside near
Sioux City. lie found in the hut a
young girl who had also sought shelter
there. The drummer used his per-
suasive arts with such ability that as
soon as the storm had somewhat sub
sided they walked to the minister and
were married. There are few things
that can beat a resident Of st. Louis
when he makes up his mind.
