Pressed Beef.
lold Department:

Editor Household Department:
This is very nice for slicing for supper.
Boil about three or four pounds of beef
very tender; take out every particle of
bone and gristle, and. while hot chop very
fine in a chopping bowl, with three crack
ers rolled fine; add pepper and salt to
your taste, one beaten egg andbutter the
size Of an egg. If the meat is somewhat
fat, not as much butter will be needed.
Then moisten the whole with the gravy
left; a large teacupful will be sufficient
probably for that quantity of meat.
Place in long tin, and over the top lay
on thin layer of egg andcrackercrumbs
well seasoned. Bake half an hour and
slice when cold MRS. E. w.

The Mistakes of Old People.

are living unhappy, discontented lives
overshadowed by the dark cloud OF pow
erty-who might have ended their days
in comparative comfort and prosperity
Very much of this discomfort and unhappi-
ness is due to the fact that when the time
came when they We're compelled by reason
of physical infirmaties to resign the more
active duties of life they were induced by
others, perhaps their children, to "giveup
everything" and make their home with
them, with the understanding that they
should be cared for until the end came
In nine cases out of ten such an arrange
ment is certain to bring dissatisfaction.
1t is a great mistakefo old people to give
up all hold OH their property, even to
their children,-who may be thoughtful
of their interests in the most considerate
way. Although they may feel that they
have we'll earned the privilege of home
with them, yet after all an unavoidable lefeel-
ing of dependence for ahome remains with
them when too late to remedy it. There
are indeed very many honorable and
noble exceptions where, with loving care,
old age is watched and tended like an ex-
otic fower-when downy cushions and
sheltered corners await the weary tremb-
ling limbs and soft hands tenderly smooth
the silver hair, yet with the most loving
care extended, it has seemed wise and best
to "give up everything" but the excep-
tions are rare. As rule, it is q great
mistake to let their property go out of
their hands as long as it is possiblein any
way to hold it and keepa home for them
selves.
To those in their old age who are
blessed with comfortable homes of their
own, sheltered by the love and kind min
istries of children near them, made happy
in the consciousness that they are yet of
use in the world, no more blessed heritage
could possibly be desired by them. But
the saddest sight i'll all the world is a
helpless old couple, burdened with want,
property fled, the keen energies of robust
life withered and gone, no stores of either
spiritual or intellectul food laid up for a
time of need, no love of books ard cult
ured companionship, the place at the
table and the chimney corner grudgingly
bestowed. Can we conceive of any life
more to be pitied? How far such unto
ward circumstances may heve been be-
yond their control, to have brought life
TO such a sad ending, we cannot say; but
this we know, that no old age need be ut
terly desolate or unhappy. Our skies are
largely of our own making, and to be de-
void of happiness and sweetcontent when
''the eve draws nigh is to confess to q
miserable preparation for it. How apt

RAILROAD RUMORS.

There is hardly doubt now that the
Union Pacific Railroad Company will have
a road into San Francisco at no far distant
day. For months past surveyors have been
travelling over the hills and plains Of this
State with the object OF finding the most
feasible and shortest route across the State
and over the Sierra Nevada mountains into
California. While several routes have been
our county the greatest is that which after
leaving Austin runs west to a point near
Wadswoith and then follows the Carson
river to certain extent to Carson City, and
thence up the Carson Valley, crossing The
mountains through the old Emigrant pass.
This route is said to be considered a very
favorable one by the surveyors, and it is
said win he in the neighborhood Of one
hundred miles shorter than any other pro
posed line. In the event that this route
should be decided upon, the road will beyond
a doubt come through Dayton, thereby maxi
ing our li.tle town a station on a through
overland line. Anybody can see tina, the
advantages that would be derived from such
q move would be great. Lyon county is
already considerable Of cattle county. and
it would be great deal more convenient 70,
our cattle men to drive their stock to any
point on the new road to ship than it is for
them 10 now drive 10 Wadsworth. Freigh,s
and fares would be cheaper il there was com
petition, and with system Of irrigation and
water storage that is now being inaugurated
in the State large area Of good farming
country would grow up along the line in this
county as well as in Churchill county. This
purposed route wauld cross the Sierras at a
considerable distance south OF the Beckwith
pass, and there would be but litle snow en-
countered in the Winter. 1t COSTS the c. p
road fortune every Winter to keep its snow
sheds repaired and the track clear. All this
would be avoided by crossing at the Emigranl
pass. Another thing; the road would be one
of the finest scenic routes in the world. 1t
would come very close to the Yosemite Val.
ley, and also pass within few miles Of Lake
Tahoe. With the Union Pacific running
through 10 San Francisco and the c. & c., to
Majave, Nevada would be pretty we'll fixed
and could get to any part Of the Golden
State on short notice.

President Harrison has made it clear that
the old and disastrous policy of bestowing
Offices on carpet-baggers in the Southern
States will not be repeated during his Ad
mini stration. No man there will be consid.
cred as eligible to any Office on the soil
ground that he is Republican. He must
have good standing as man in the com
munity. His influence in support OF the
principles Of the present Administration will
count for something. The Federal Office,

best men. If these cannot be found in the
Republican ranks, then suitable men will be

an announcement that Northern capital has
been invested in some great enterprise in the
Southern States. Now it is in coal mines,
and next, plants for working iron and steel.
The cotton manufactures Of the Northern
States have been moving nearer to the sources
Of supply.
The men who are moving capital into the
Southern States may not all belong 10 one
political party. But for the most part, they
hold certain principles in common. They

hold political Offices. But they represent
the new industrial force that is entering The
Southern States. This revolution is going
on quietly. 1t was never making greater
progress than at this time. The political
revolution will have close relation with h-

will be found friendly to this rapid material
development. 1t will take nc stock in

The Southern State cannot ask more Of the
present Administration at the outset than
that it should fill the Offices with the best
men, who favor a common industrial policy

are working for its prosperity. The great
work which the present Administration will
have in hand is to obiterate secticna.ism.
Political cliques formed solely for the dis

South are chosen to represent the Admins

be difficult one to- settle. But the whole
question in that relation is that all citizens

guarantees. The Administration of tn,

that the best men OF the South will be called

PITTBURG, Pa, Aug. 9.-This after
noon while thirty-inch natural gas
main was being tested the dead cap on
the end of the pipe blew out, scattering
the debris in every direction. Several
hundred workmen employed in the iron
mills near by were just returning home
and number of them had stopped along
the trench to watch the work.
They were struck by the debris and fly
ing missiles. The pipe was braced with
heavy timbers, and these were hurled
into the crowd with terrific force. Work
men and spectators were thrown down
by the force of the explosion and one of
the killed was hurled against a
brick house and his neck broken.
A general stampede followed this
explosion and a scene of the widest eX-
citement enSued. The cries of the in
jured could be heard for several
squares. An investigation showed that
two men had been killed outright and
about fifteen others Injured, two OF
them fatally. The dead were conveyed
to their homes, and the injured who
were unable to walk taken to the hos

HUNS ON THE RAMPAGE.
Ignorant Aliens Destroy Property
in Their Frenzy.

in Their Frenzy.
SCoTTDALE, Pa, Aug. 9.-The Hun
garians at Morewood refused to go to
work this morning because they did not
understand that the strike was settled.
Hearing that the Alice and Bessemer
works we're running they formed a
bowling mob of about 500 and started
for these plants. The men at the Alice
mines were warned in time and fled.
Upon reaching the tipple the mob tore
boards off and started coal wagons
down the slope to wreck them and
block the entrance so that no coal
could be hoisted. They then went to
Bessemer, and on the way met John NJ.
Dayton, who was riding in a buggy. He
tried to persuade them to stop and re-
turn to work, but the infuriated mob
overturned his buggy and beat and cut
him so badly that his life is deSpaired
of, The Huns reached Bessemer and
went to the house OF an old man named
GilhooIey to look for the mine boss.
Failing to find him there the old man
was beaten and the windows of his
house broken. A man named Love
was also caught at the pit mouth and
treated in the same manner. They
next made a descent upon the store,
and after breaking the windows and
doors in carried off all the bread and
bologna they could find on the
premises. BY this time Secre-
tary Watchorn arrived in company
with James Keegan, another of the
leaders. Watchorn addressed them and
finally succeeded in making them un-
derstand that the strike was over and
in their favor. The Huns then retired
to their homes. The operators and dis
interested persons say that but for the
opportune arrival of Mr.. Watchorn the
mob would not have left vestige of
the company's property standing, and
much blood would have doubtless been
shed. The whole affair was caused by
misunderstanding. Tonight the scale
as signed is being printed and will be
sent through the region. No further
trouble is likely to occur. The English
speaking miners are all satisfied with
the settlement. The leaders deeply de-
plore the unfortunate outbreak and will
use every precaution to prevent re-
currence of the same.
