Clown Talk" contributes the ioi-
lowing probably true story to the
Virginia Enterprise.
You remember Marcus Shultz, don't
YOU? He was just about such a man
as Jason Caldwin, Warren Sheridan or
.Jopples Wright to newspaper men.
lie was a fellow OF infinite Jest and IN
finite resources. L was IN Naru,
White Pine county, in the booming
days OF that camp, and | was Just
" stuck" there; that's all there Is
about il. | had 1000 shares oil the
Ward Co.'S. stock, and the parties IN
control were trying to freeze me out,
and with me it was q question OF get
ting food and shelter long enough TO
bring them TO my terms to buy me
out. Well, Marcus ShultZ helped me
out, and I'll tell you how. There was
a Chinaman running a restaurant !
Ward. Shultz got me to borrow on
cents for him TO eat on, and he got
me while he was eating and putting
on style on my four bits, to-walk in
front OF the restaurant three or four
time, and each time TO look furtively
inside. / did this to the Queens taste,
because | was hungry and Shultz was
eating and cracking jokes with the
proprietor inside. When he came out
he hunted me up and told me every
thing was all right, and that We didn't
need to worry about eating any more.
[ stared at the man and every pang OF
hunger throttled up my throat in one
bound. He said, THAT'S all right;
YOU a stand it till tonight, and
we'll 90 in and have a square meal to-
gether." Well, to get to the point,
when night came VT went in and sat
down without ordering. / sat long
| enough to think l was being cruelty
| joshed, when the proprietor himself
appeared with a tray loaded down
with roast chicken and all the dainties
| the market afforded. ShultZ looked
at me, "didn't l tell you Sc" and
made no inquiries. | boarded there
for two months and didn't pay a cent
as / had one to pay, and | knew
Shultz had nothing, and | did not
dare inquire for particulars for fear
something exceedingly distasteful TO
an honest mar would be revealed.
We lived on the fat Of the land, but
finally | got the money that VAS due
me from the company and | sold my
stock. In a perfect frenzy rushed to
Shultz and demanding in a threaten
ing n what magic or internal
spell he had exercised over that poor
Chinaman. He was perfectly fraak
and said: "You know the China
mans wife "a very beautiful woman) ?
Well, l represented to him that there
was a job put up to kidnap her, and
that you vas a detective employed for
the purpose, and when You were walk
ing in front of the restaurant you were
just spying out the lay of the ground
but that | was a friend Of yours and
would buy you out and Illustrate the
villains" My credit was as good as
gold with the Chinaman, and after
that | went and paid him for my own
board, and left Shultz to make peace
with his own conscience.

COOP, BUT INExPEDrENT.

THE ELIxIR OF LIFE.

We find the following article in the
Newry Reporter, an Irish newspaper,
under date of July IL
II we are to believe Mr.. Campbell
Clarke. the Paris correspondent Of the
Daily Telegraph, the elixir Of Life is
about to pass from the field Of romance
into that of reality. He says: "De.
spite the sarcasm. general and profess
%sional, with which the recent expert
ments made by NJ. Brown-Sequard were
greeted, there seems after all to be some
efficacy in the ugly elixir invented by
the aged and respected Psychologist. A
young physician. DIR. Variot. who has
already been successful in removing tat.
too marks from the skins of several civ
ilized savages, has been induced to test
the efficacy Of NJ. Brown.Sequard's
"Life Mixture" He nestled together
portions of the flesh tissues Of rabbits
and guinea pigs, diluted them with
water, ana injected the compound thus
obtained into the bodies Of three pau
pers aged respectively 81, IS and 6s
years. The men had never heard
of NJ. Brown-Sequsrd's solution, and
were merely told that they were to be
with strengthening fluid. We
have DIR. Variot's word that his three
patients. who before being subjected to
The wonderful remedy, were weak. worn,
,macisted and melancholy. suddenly be-
'ame strong. fresh and cheerful. took

they had received q new lease Of exist.

TO CURE The MORMON EVIL

w. II. Dickson, formerly Of this
State, and United States Attorney for
Utah Territory during 9 part Of Ar
thur and Clevelsnd's administrations.
and who is still . resident Of Utah. is
reported by the Independent as saying
at the depot at EIko night before last:
"The only cure for the evil Of Nor.
monism is an influx Of American citi-
zens to Utah 10 outvote the religious
dupes Of the Mormon Church whose
control Of it's members is more auto
cratic than that Of the Gar Of all the
Russias."
Mr.. Dickson, whose duty it was to
prosecute all violstors Of the Edmunds
Unlawful Capitalization Act in Utah,
probably understands the Mormon ques-
tion rs we'll as anybody on the coast.
His remedy for the evil is exactly the
same as that suggested by Exon.
gresham Cassidy in an article ~favoring
the annexation of Utah to Nevada.
He wants more Gentiles in Utah. and
the most practical way to get them is
to annex Utah to the Gentle State Of
Nevads. Both would make q respecta.
BILE State in wealth and population,
in which GENTLE sscendancy would be
assured. 1t would benefit Nevada by
reducing taxation and making the bur

Utah by encouraging the development
Of its resources, and freeing its people
from the CALLING yoke OF 8 church,
which exacts Is it's tribute, one-tenth
Of the products Of the labor Of the

But though annexation would bene'

The New York Herald says Mr.. Blaine
seeks to shift the responsibility for the
new seizure policy in Behring Sea on
Congress and the late administration. II
is, he says. simply in compliance with
the Act signed by President Cleveland
at the close OF his term. Che admins
tration organs make the same plea.
If the plea were well founded it would
give no international strength to the
claim Of exclusive jurisdiction. The
control of Behring Sea is a matter to be
settled by the nations Of the world, not
by an edict of Congress. That part Of
the high seas can nj more be appropri-
ated by Act of Congress than the Allan.
tic Ocean can.
But has Congress made any such dec.
laration?
The Act of last March provides for
the protection of the fisheries under
dominion Of the United States in those
waters Of Behring Sea-" But what is
the dominion Of the United States in
those watersi That is the very ques-
tion in dispute. The Act Of Congress
neither settles il nor throws any light on
ID, but leaves il wholly untouched.
Moreover. to contend that the Act
was intended to have the effect claimed
for IL by the Chief of the State Depart
ment 10 simply to admit that II was not
till the year 1889 that Congress asserted
the right to control Behring Sea- point
that foreign diplomacy would not be
slow TO make against up.

A cow belonging to Bill Wonder,
who has a herd pasturing on the hills
near Bowman's dam, Nevada county,
CAL, recently gave birth to five calves.
One OF the young ones looks more like
a young jack than like an animal OF
the COW species. A San Francisco
tourist, when he saw the strange an
imal, offered to give $500 for the
freak. Stockmen say four calves are
common, but when a jack is thrown
in, it beats the record.
