Chicken Thieves.

Last Tuesday night the hen roost Of Sher
if Brann was robbed of eight chickens. Ii
is supposed by Mr.. Brann that coyotes did
the work as the heads and numerous feath.
ers OF the fowls were found just outside the
cosp.
Thursday night something visited the hen
roost Of We editor and carried of five hens,
leaving but three. These three would prob
ably have been taken, also, had not the
thief made such a bungling job that We
were awakened and scared him away. 1t is
very evident that no coyote stole our chick
ems. 1t was either a Chinaman or white
man, and had we been a minute or tive
quicker whoever it was would have received
a desc OF shot that would have prevented
him from sitting down for several days.

Begin Operating About Sept LIST.
The operations in progress by the Csnsoli
dated Carson River Dredging Company
gives the river quite lively appearance.
The company BOW has large force Of men
employed in putting the machinery on board
the scow and they are getting it in place
with all possible speed. They already have
The crane, boilers, hoist engine, pressure
tank and vacuum chamber in place. The
Atlas engine aad two Blake pumps are on
board and the big Weber pump is expected
TO arrive to-day. The scow is 30 feet long
aad 80 feet wide; the boilers are two in
number and of 50 horse power each; the
| engine and hoist are capable Of handling 50
tons at a lift, and the pressure tank will
stand strain Of 200 pounds to the square
inch, and is intended as a receiver from
| which water is to be injected into the vac.
uum chamber for the purpose Of condensing
the steam and producing the vacuum in the
shortest possible time. The vacuum cham.
Der is Of 4 tons capacity; the pipes through
which the material will be raised from the
river bed are II inches in diameter, and 600
| tons 10 10 hours work for this machine. The
| Atlas engine is 20 horse power, and the
Weber pump capable Of lifting 10000
gallons per hour. Two large redwood tanks,
8 feet in diameter, are being constructed by
the V. & 7. Railroad Company, and will
| arrive early next week. These tanks
are intended a. reservoirs, by means Of
which steady supply Of water may be had
for sluicing purposes. The lumber for the
sluices is on the ground and large water and
steam pipes are being run in every direction
about the scow. The company has erected
its own work shop and has it we'll stocked
wi tn tsels Of the latest and most approved
patterns, and, in short, every detail has been
looked after as closely as it is in human
ability to fsresee and provide for. Water
having been unusually low this Summer the
company has been compelled to put in quite
q substantial dam which has been an extra
expense of about 5000. After many vexa.
tious delays the scheme for dredging the
Carson River seems to be almost an accom-.
plshed fact, and the promoters Of the enter
prise confidently expect to be rewarded for
their plsck and perseverance by seeing the
machinery in successful operation, about the
FIRST Of September.

Captain sprang from his buggy and ordered

various Opinions Regarding the Matter
of Adjourning or Recess.

Various Opinions Regarding the Matter
of Adjourning or Recess.
WASHINGTON, October 7th.-In the Sem
ate tomorrow the tariff bill will be taken
up, and Senator Allison will make speech
in its support. The bill will be temporarily
laid aside whenever the conferees on the
general deficiency bill reach an agreement
With this exception, it is expected to COM
mand the attention of the Senate until dis
posed OF. The assertion is made by some
Republican Senators that the Senate tariff
bill will be passed within three weeks, and
Democrats express the hope that such may
prove to be the case. The opinion, how
ever, is pretty widely entertained on both
sides that before the expiration of three
weeks the Senate will find itself without
voting quorum and will assent to re-
cess, if in the meantime the House does
not send over resolution to adjourn.
A proposition to take a recess and recon-
vene after the election would probably
meet with considerable favor, even as
against one for adjournment, since the two
or three weeks practically added to the be-
ginning of the next session could be made
to advance next years work materially.
In spite of promises and resolutions to
the contrary, nothing is expected of Con-
gress, under ordinary circumstances, until
aItel tne nolluay recess, but with the period
before recess practically doubled, and es-
pecially if the annual estimates are made
ready, there is little doubt that the COM
mittee work on several of the appropriation
bills would be greatly advanced
In the House the final conference report
upon the general deficiency appropriation
bill will be presented for action early1 the
week. After it is disposed of nothing of in
| terest is likely to occur, unless some influ-
ential member shall spring upon the House
an adjournment resolution. In the alb
sence of quorum, however, the immediate
| success OF such a movement wi II depend
upon the possibility of avoiding q single
objection

WOMEN IN COLLEGE.
The Higher Education Of Dur Girls as
Viewed Through Various Eyes.

The Higher Education Of Dur Girls as
Viewed Through Various Eyes.
Under the above title Arthur Gilman
writes in the September Century: " l have
been told, even in cultivated, intellectual
circles, that young woman had better be
IN the kitchen or laundry than in the
laboratory or classroom of college.
Women should be trained, such persons
say, to be wives and Mothers The finger
of scorn has been lightly pointed at the
mentally cultivated mothers and daughters
who were unable to cook and scrub, who
cannot make mmce pie or plum pudding.
Such persons forget with surprising
facility all the cases of women who neglect
the kitchen to indulge in the loyesick SEN
timentality to which they have been
trained who think too much of possible
matrimonial chances to endanger them by
scrubbiDg or by giving ground for suspi-
cion that they cultivate any other faculty
than the power to apostrophize the moon
light and to long for lover. They do not
care to remember that it is NO whit better
to write under the influence of ignorance
or sentiment, to cultivate fondness for
gush,' than to dry up the sensibilties
like bookworm, or to grow rigid and
priggish like a pedant. 1t is as bad TO
stunt human nature as to overstimulate it
to stop its progress in one way as in an
other.
"The danger is in going to extremes.
The mass of men choose the golden mean,
and We may trust women to avoid extrava-
ganee in the pursuit of learning. We
may and ought to give her every help IN
the direction of life that her brothers
possess. 1t is no longer doubtful, it is.
plain, that whatever other rights woman
have, those Of the intellectual kingdom
ought to be hers fully and freely. She
should be the Judge herself of how far
she should go in exploring the mysteries
of nature and of science.
1t is not a question of putting all our
girls through college. 1t is not even 4
question of their being taught in the same
institutions and classes with men when
they go to college. The form in which
women should be taught and the subjects
that they should study are of minor i'm
portance at the moment, and the time will
settle them in natural way. The great
desideratum is that they be given the
collegiate education when they need it.
and that they be the judges of their own
needs"

A SLIM CHANCE.
Little Prospect of Any Tariff Leglslatio
at This Session

at This Session
fcoryTgt. 1888, dy the California Associoted pre,,;
WASHINGTON, October 7th.-To-morrow
the tariff debate will begin in the Senate.
Sherman and Stewart have already deliy-
cred their speeches, and the tariff has incl
dentally played part in the numerous no.
lltical discussions that have taken place in
the Senate during the past three months.
but from this time forward until adjourn
ment, or recess over the election is taken.
II will be daily the article of fare on the
Senatorial board.
Allison of Iowa is expected to deliver his
speech tomorrow, and Harris of Tennessee
to reply. Then every Senator who desires
TO discuss the respective merits of protec.
ton and free trade will be given an oppor-
tunlty to do so. This debate, it is believed
Will not continue for more than two weeks
Ii by that time Congress is not adjourned
a recess will be taken until the 10Th of No
vember.
If the Senators are compelled to return
after the election they will push their bill
through, and the conferees on the part of
the Ways and Means and Finance Com
mlttees will try to reach some agreement
between the two houses respecting the re-
duction Of the revenue. Should cleveland
be re- elected, it is certain that the House
would accept no measure of tariff reduc-
ton other than the Mills bill. Should
Harrison be successful, the Republican
Senators would never consent to accept the
House tariff bill.
The prospects Of an agreemant of any
kind between the two houses on a tariff
bill are therefore remote. The chances are
that the whole subject will ultimately be
dropped, and that nothing in the shape of
reduction of the revenues will be accom-
plished in the short session ending March
4th, and that the whole matter of the re.
vision OF the tariff will relegate to the
Fifty irst Congress.
Nothing but the passage of the deficiency
appropriation bill remains for the House to
do this week, as the absence of ANYTHING
like quorum will prevent any general
legislation.
