Let woman have every virtue un-
der the sun, if she is slatternly, or
even negligent in her dress, her merits
will be more than half obscured. If,
being young, she is untidy, or, being
old, fantastic or slovenly, the mental
qualifications stand chance of being
passed over with indifference.

All through South Carolina heavy
rains have fallen daily for near two
weeks. Rivers are up, low lands
flooded, corn and cotton greatly in

greatly swollen, and the crops along
its banks ruined.

never looked down at her without
meeting her beautiful brown eyes ever
fixed on mine full of love. l never

was alwaye the first to meet me in the

II think the poor child had never
been loved by anyone before, and
when she found out that there was so
sweet a thing in this world as love, 1t

THE FUTURE PHOsPECT.

The people OF Eastern Nevada have
every reason to congratulate themselves
on the future prospects Of this portion Of
the Snge Brush Suite. Although the
past Winter, for n short period ut least,
was unusually sever the losses OF stock
were comparatively light, and mnny
stockmen who wore discouraged nj the
prospect which was presented during
the severe cvld weather Of January were
agreeabIy surprised on the opening Of
Spring to find that their losse, were no
greater than nre generally sustained
during au average Winter. The month
Of April WINS unusually warm and dry
aud the prospect for feed OIL tie raugr
was not inviting. but within the past
week or two copious showers have visit
ed US and the grass is better now than
it has been Mt this season OF the year
for several years past.
The beautiful weather Of April ena-
bled those engaged i'll agricultural pur-
suits to plant large crops in good sea-
son, aud the recent rims have given
them a good STINT SO that the prospects
for abundant hnrvests nre flat.ering;nnd
although prices are. and will he. low in
comparison with what they were II few
years ago, still the farmer can connt on
receiving n fair price for ali the surplus
produce he hns to dispose OF after his
crops are harvested.
The various mining industries in this
part Of the State are in n henlthy COLI
ditiou, aud while some of them arc not
now producing lnrge quantities of bull
ion, development is going on steadily
aud quietly with fair prospects of fu-
ture success. The mines at Mountain
City nre beginning to make n good
showing in the production of tue prec-
ious metals, while the Tuscarorn mines
are rapidly coming to the front Ms
among the most valuable in the Stat,
from S75, 900 to 500. 600 worth of bull
ion being something netr the mount
shipped each month. Truly the people
OF EIko county have no reason TO COM

ton of the State.

The RoSbers Fail 90 Get Away

A daring robbery was committed last
night, or rather this morning, by some
person or persons unknown, but from
some unexplained cause the robbers
signully fnile I in securing thee coin,
which was all recovered ut daylight this
morning. The circumstances of the
robbery are substantially as follows:
A shipment Of coin t. Tuscarora vas
to be made this morning by stnge. and
for the purpose Of having all ready for
the early departure of tho stag". which
leaves ut 2 o'clock, Express Agent Hull
placed $3.50, all Of which was in sill
yer exc ,pt 81, 900. in the express box.
and left il sitting in the office. About
. o'clo,k this morning County Clerk
Wisem IN was passing the express Office
and noticing tlInt n large glass Of the
front d Jor was broken and seeing n dim
light within. he put his hend in the
opening when suddenly he received n
severe tlow Oh the forehead which cut a
deep gash across the temple and evil
IDENTIFY severed q small artery, rs it bed
profusely. Mr. Wiseman made his
way to the residence OF j. L. Triplett,
he says he has no recollection Of how
he got there rs he was s~enli.uncon-
s%cious, aroused Mr.. Triplett mud told
him how he Ind received the wound.
Mr.. Triplett took Mr.. Wiseinnn home,
washed his face and bound up the
wound, and then went for Constable
DIcAdams and the two then went and
aroused Mr.. Hull. The three vent to
the express Office where they found that
tue robbers had fled. taking tho box Of
treasure with them. AS 500 rs it was
light enough to see it WAS discovered
TINT 5. NJ. Henlcy's w~heelbnrrow was
missing, aud n careful examination re-
vealed the fnct that the box, which
weighed near 200 pounds. had been
wheeled away OH the barrow. Taking
the track. which was readily traced on
nccount Of the weight, they followed it
round the corner Of Willie Cullen's fruit
store, thence up the street past tho
Humboldt House to the foot Of tho hill
near the residence of Mrs. Thorpe,
where the missing Lo1 was found Sc
creted under q sage brush with its con-
tents intact, no attempt having been
made to open it. The wheelbarrow was
found in the alley nenr Mrs. Van Dreil
ems stable.
This bold Il tempt at robbery will no
doubt be the subject OF investigation,
and from the fact TINT it wns so bung-
liugly executed there is no doubt TINT 1t
Was the work OF some new hands ut the
business. as 10 expert wonll have been
