An Interesting Episode.

A few days ago a young man from a
ranch in Steptoe valley went on horse
back to call on some young ladies who
reside not far from Ely, the county
seat OF White Pine, when one of them
mounted the visitors untamed steed.
The animal evidently knew it's fair
rider, and, in a most indecorous man
ner started to run away with her, and
was taking it's course into the hills
when the young lady, whose wits did
not forsake her, jumped off and landed
in the sagebrush. A cry Of horror
from those who witnessed the ''leap for
life" rent the air, but The now dust
stained form of Miss - 1--WE are not
giving away any names) presently ap-
peared above the brush and every
body felt relieved. The young man
wildly rushed to her assistance, met
her, tenderly brushed away the dust
from her beautiful face with his hand
kerchief and escorted her home. For
~tunately the young lady received no
hurt beyond a slight scratch OH the
back of her hand.
The prospects of Robinson District
are not only fair, but exceedingly
good. The young ladies out there,
however, are fairer and better, and we
are ready to wager our best hat on one
or all of three things, that either one
CT them would make a fine house,
keeper and a good wife; that the
young man in question is dead in love,
and that there will be a wedding at or
near the county seat Of White Pine
county in the not far distant future.

ACCIDENT AT sELIGmAN,
A Broken Arm and Marrow Escape
from Death.

from Death.
Last Saturday afternoon Mike Nc
Cormick was at work with two men
named Laurents and Russell in Selig-
mar canyon, southerly from the con-
centrating works, sinking a well. 1t
was down 80 feet, and a drift was to be
started a few feet from the bottom.
Laurents had just gone on top and
Mccormick went down to put in a
platform to stand on while the drift
was being started, when a cave oc-
CURED about 80 feet above him, throw
ing down a mass Of tagging, dirt and
loose rock. A rock weighing 20 or 80
pounds struck McCormick's left arm
between the shoulder and elbow,
breaking it. The injured man was
Immediately taken to the Seligman
store and cared for as we'll as could be
without surgical assistance. "Doc"
Holmes then brought him to Eureka,
where DR.. James Williams set the
broken limb. The patient is able to
be around. His mother, Mrs. Whalen,
was in Antelope district visiting her
daughter, Mrs. p. +. Mcbride, and
hearing of her sons misfortune, came
back to Eureka to care for him, and
will probably remain until he gets
we'll. Mccormick had a fortunate es-
cape from death, as a rock weighing
about a half a ton fell close to him.
He was held fast in the debris until he
was extrlcated from his perilous
position, and no sooner had this been
accomplished, and he removed out Of
danger, than the bottom of the we'll
caved in entirely.

Accident,

Martin Brown received a telegram
last Saturday stating that his mother
had broken her arm from a fall, and
last Thursday a letter came to hand
informing him that she had, on the
18th instant, left q street Car, and on
reaching the sidewalk struck her foot
against the CURLING, fell and broke one
of the small bones of her wrist. The
accident, as we are very glad to learn,
although painful, is not as bad as was
at first feared.

Splendid Fruit.

r. Sadler & Co. are in receipt of a
fine lot Of apples and English goose
berries, raised on P. Nelson's ranch at
Currant Creek, i'll Nye county, on the
old Phoebe road, formerly owned by
Dick Barnes. This is the best of the
kind We have ever seen, and it knocks
the spots out of the California fruit
that is usually brought to this market.
We like to encourage our home inter-
ests, good or bad, but such splendid
fruit as this needs no other recon-
mendation than to call at Sadler's,
where to see is to believe.

asm was manifest in the whole gathering.
The feeling was general that the time had
come to organize, and the quick and effec-
tive manner in which the business of per-
maneut organization was disposed OF, in
dictated that the Democracy of the ward
were awake and ready for work.

spirited address in assuming the duties Of
the position, pledging his earnest efforts
to advance the interests Of the club and
the cause for which it was organized, and
prophesying that the club would be heard
from favorably in the campaign. 1t was.
not necessary for him to urge upon the
members the need of earnest thorough
work in the campaign. Each and every
one must be ready to do his duty and
whole duty by the party. The club was
organized for work, and it could only be
effected by every member resolving to do

work OF the campaign in earnest. All
over the city the members Of the party are
becoming thoroughly aroused to the neces-
sity of organizing for the coming campaign,
aud from the size of the gatherings already
held and the enthusiasm shown, the pros
poets are that before another month has
passed We will see well-equipped organiza-
tons in each of the city districts, and the
voters standing well in line and prepared
for the contest. Last evening the Demo
Gratis of three districts met to effect perma-
nent organizations, and agreat deal of good
work was accomplished, a report Of which

In response to a call issued the Demo-
Gratis of Webster district turned out last
evening nearly one hundred strong. The
meeting being held in Lawrence Wehrle's
hall, 1880 Main street, and the object OF
the same being to take steps to form a per-
manent Democratic organization in the
district. Shortly after s o'clock the meet
ing was called to order by Mr.. John
Weisgerber, of the Executive Committee.
who moved the election of Mr.. Frank
Cruise as temporary Chairman. The cleo
| ton was unanimous, and Mr. William
Truax was then selected as Secretary.
Chairman Cruise made a short but stir
ring address, in which he stated the OBJ
jecr OF the meeting, and spoke Of the ne
cessity of thorough organization in order
that perfect work might be accomplished
in the approaching campaign. He was
glad to see such an %outpouring Of the
staunch Democrats of the District, and the
enthusiasm displayed fully attested the
vim with which the Webster Democrats
would enter the fight and he felt sure that
if all other wards and districts showed up
IN the end with the record of the Webster
Democrats. the victory would be more than
glorious. His remarks were londly cheered.
The business of the meeting was then
proceeded With, which was principally the
selection of aCommittee on Permanent
Organization. The following gentlemen
were appointed rs such committee:
Messrs. Thomas b. Moore, Patrick Weir,
Gregory Warner, James NJ. Todd, John
McDermott, Hugh Dawson, James Reagan,
Frank LutZ, Andrew Slater, Michael Fox,
Jr., and Chairman Cruise and Secretary
Truax.
This committee will meet next Monday
evening, January so, at 7:30 o'clock, ut the
same place, TO draft a constitution and
transact such other matters a. may come
before il, aud a meeting will be called by
the chairman to receive the report and act
upon it.
The Webster district Democratic Club
promises to be very large, as the interest
manifested at present seems extraordinary.
IL this interest keeps up, and there is no
reason TO doubt it will, and increase, the
Webster Democratic Club will o~utrival
any political organization in the State.
And 50 the good work still goes on and the
way the Webster Democrats will hustle
things in the coming campaign will prove
a caution.
A very noticeable feature of last even
iDg's meeting was the presence of the old
and time-tried democrats, Whose locks
have become gray in the service, along
with the young mar on whose face the
down is just appearing, and who will
probably cast his first vote at the coming
election. 1t was a representative meeting
and one which augurs we'll for the inter
ests of the party.
