A Deep Plot.

The evidence in the trial Of DEM
ing, charged with the murder of Ben
hayon in San Francisco, is very strong
against the defendant, aud it is be-
lieved that he will be convicted of the
crime. Connected with the circum-
stances of this case will probably be
revealed one of the most diabolical
plots ever unearthed in the criminal
records on this Coast, in which there
10 little doubt that DIR. J. Milton Bow
ers represents the principal actor in
the tragedy.

CLIMATE.

The climate of Nevada is the most
delightful aud salubrious in the known
world. Neither the prostrating heats
and destructive cyclones, nor the Arc
tic frosts and deadly blizzards of the
Western States are known here. The
consumption breeding fogs, and count
less insect pests that swarnt in other
lands, are also strangers in Nevada.
The warmest days of Summer are
modified by soft Southwest winds,
laden with the sweet Odor OF wild
flowers, and the inyigorating aroma of
the indigeous sage, while the nights
are seasons Of transcendent lovliness,
rendered so by the gentle breezes that
watt health and vigor to the sleeper.
In June and July occasional thunder
s.orms cool the air and freshen the
face of nature. The Winters, with the
exception of a few cold days, are
Spring-like, the snow remaining only
short time, except ut great attitudes

WEALTHY CRInIINALs.

Jay Gould and Russell Sage May be In
dieted by a New York Grand jury On a
Charge Of Lareeuy-District Attorney
Martins Opinion.
NEW YORK, December SO.-District Attor-
ney Martin to-day filed the following mem
orandum in the matter Of the charges made
against Jay Gould and Russell Sage by the
bOndhOlders OF the Kansas Pacific railroad:
''This is an application to present to the
grand jury a charge Of larceny against Jay
Gould and Russell Gage, under section 81 OF
the penal code. In my opinion the acts
with the commission of which the defend
ants stand charged, constitute a crime. A
possible obstacle to a successful prosecution
OF the persons complained of Is the statute
Of limitations. Yet there are strong
reasons for believing that this obstacle is
not unsurmCuntable. The statute under
which 1t is sought to prosecute may be con
strued so as to nable the people TO proceed
Notwithstanding the statute Of limitation
and such construction would have much sup
port IN reason and common sense. The
question Is so close and the interests in
yolved here as well Of the people as Of the
defendants are so important it seem proper
to leave the determination of this question
Of law to the courts, and IN order to effect
this result the facts should be laid before the
grand jury and if proven an Indictment
found and tried
