BRAINS AND ESslsS.
A Palatable Dish that Went to the
Wrong Boarder.

There Is q boarding house, not far away.
Where they have brains and eggs, sometimes
they say.
This is what she was hummi.g the other
evening as she came out Of boarding house
net over mile from the TINES efhce and
ran slap against a reporter who happened to
be around about that time.
"Ah, therei"
Well, what's the matter with brains and
eggsa
SHOW, Mr.. Reporter, if you won't give
the snap away. I'll tell you the best joke Of
the season."
All right, cross my heart. hope to die,
new what's the racket
swell, there is war, and it came about
in this way. The other day lady who had
gentleman friend boarding in the house
brought in a mess Of bullsck's brains and
contemplated having her friend dine like d
king. The brains we're given to the China
man with strict orders TO fix them up in the
finest style known 10 the culinary art. The
cook is = new hand, and although he is a
| fine cook. he does not sabe much English
He took The brains, however. scrambled
them with eggs. and about time for supper
had dish prepared fit for the gods.
Now. you understand that there is an in
valid lady who boards at the place, and the
most Of the time she has her meals carried
to her residence.
Well, you see the Chinaman got it into
his head the extra dish was to 60 to her, so
when the lady's maid came for the meal the
brains were placed on the tray, piping hot,
and carried TO her residence.
She looked at the dish moment and then
got mad and ordered the stuff thrown in the
swill bucket. You see-oh my-well,
guess she thought some one was insinuating
but that was not the case, it was simply .
horrd mistake.
In the meantime the fellow who was ts

mon supper with the balance OF the people
The next day. when his friend asked hin,
how he enjoyed his supper, she was sur
prised at no, hearing him thank her for the
trouble she had been to-in fact he never
mentioned brains At all. Oh my corset.,

through whose property the read runs, it was
granted.
! Another road petition was received from
Mason Valley stating that the road was not
complete between Wabuska and Greenfield
because there was no right Of way from the
Geiger store to Greenfield, and asking thai

November I, 1881. Mr.. Bradley has import

guage Of Alonzo Bradley: SAT the time

saying that saw 900 cows MIXED At that

mary. think Pie,ertje ads dam had greater
capacity for milking than Pietertje i'd. She
was an enormous mixer. My Memorandum

this experince Of Mr.. Bradley toek place sig
years ago, and at a time when the Holland.
ers were not making records with their cows
especially feeding for large reeords, it only
establishes the fact that the record made by
Pietertje I'D, or, in other words, the ability
to make such record as she has made, was
not merely accident or phenomenal, as she
inherited this characteristic from her dam
and she also is transmitting it to her offspring
to greater degree than any COW or family
that ever lived, as will be seen by the follow

RECOGNIZING SILVER.
The West Asked to Endorse stewart
on that Issue.

The Silvtr State tells Of a good way to
lie, the East see how we stand en- the silver
question. Il says:
Republican Conventions in many Of the
States are endorsing some prominent citizen,
and ins,ructing their delegation to support
him, for the Presidential nomination iu the
National Convention at Chicago. Ohio has
endorsed Sherman; Iowa, Allison; Michigan,
Alger; Indiana, Harrison, and at last, but
by no means least, Name has endorsed
Blaine, Notwithstanding his declaration that
he is not candidate. Under such circum
stances. and in fact, without regarding what
other States may do, Nevada Republicans
should shew their appreciation Of Senator
Stewards efforts to remedy the evils resulting
to silver from legislation in 1873, by instruct.
ing the delegates 10 Chicago to vote for him
for President, FIRST, last and all the time.
He is man Of commanding presence, ac-
knowledged ability ane un,ring ensrgy. He
i. one Of the leading champions Of the double
standard monetary. system in the United
States Senate, and he deserves much more
than Blaine, 10 be the standard bearer OF the
silver men in the Presidential campaign. II
devolves upon Nevada, whose interests he SC
ably represents, to present his claims for the
Presidential nomination, and bring his name
prominently before the country by instruct.
ing the delegates to Chicago to support him.
The efforts Of Nevada in his behalf would
doubtless be seconded by the delegates from
all the silver producing States and Terrific
ries, and while he might not get the nomina
ton, his solid support by the Pacific Coast
would show the gold bugs that Western Re
pubIicans were not in sympathy with those
Of the East on the silver question. A streng
endorsement Of such an able and open cham.
pion OF silver as William M. Stewart for the
Presidential nomination by Nevada Repub
l,cans would prove that they are sincere IN
heir desire 10 make amends for the fraudu
lent ACT OF 1873, demonetizing silver, which
was Iailroaded through Republican Con
gress, at the instance Of John Sherman, te
enrich the bondholders al the expense Of the
masses.
