Round each memorial stone
Shall the proud brreZrs whisper as they pass
Rustling the faded leaves
On chilly autumn ewes
And swaying tenderly the shrterug grass!

Knew not the joy To Weld
Your young, glad lives in glorious conflict up,
Ne who As bravey fought.
We who as gTandly wrought,
Draining with them wars darkly bitter cup
As long as stars endure
And God and Truth are sure,
While Love still claims its own,
While Honor holds its throne
And NalOr hath name,
Still shall thcsr stony pages
Repeat 10 all ages
The story of your fame,

Alas, alas They speak not
The silence deep they break not,
Heaven keep its martyred ones,
Beyond or moon or suns;
And Nalhalla keep her braves,
Leaving To us their graves,
Then let these graves speak for them
As long as the wind sweeps Ger them
As long as the sentinel ridges
Keep guard on either hand:
As long as the hills they fought for
Like silent watch-towerS stand

the tody on the bed; that after 'consid-

body out and buried it in the cellar;
that it remained there about three
months when he concluded to destroy

Cattle Shipments.

There would seem to be some ques-
ton about the size OF the fund OF infor-
nation Of the "well informed gentle
man" who told the Eureka Sentinel
that the shipments Of beef cattle over
the G. P. Railroad, exceeded in num-
Der oil the cattle assessed in the State.
The Surveyor-GeneraI's report shows
that last year there verc 247,8S9 cattle
assessed in the State. The figures for
1887 are not given, but they were prob
ably about the same.
The figures furnished the Governor
by the Railroad Company. as suited by
his last message, show that in 1887,
there we're 47,454 cattle of oil classes
shipped out of the State, aud 48, 1854
during the first eleven months Of 1888
Quite different showing from that
made to the Sentinel.

Announcement.

On Saturday evening, March 10th
Mrs. Emma Pow Smith, Zone of the
recruiting officers for the home, and
National organizer for the w. C. T. "
! will arrive i'll Elko and remain for one
week, working la the line of evangelis-
tic, and missionary work of the W. G.
L. .. In connection with this an
nouncement, would like to say a few
words of this department of our work
The word evangelistic means the
promulgation Of christian law. This
department lies at the very foundation
of all others, and indeed is the very
backbone Of the other thirty nine do
partnents represented in the w. G.. T..
U. 1t was with this work that the
Wonan's Crusade in gospel work was
commenced, and which is altogether
outside and beyond the usual 'smeans
of grace" For instead of saying
Como" to the great flock of wandering
sheep who love not the fold, we have
needed the voice chat said to us "Go,"
and we are going to where the wander
crs are, seeking to save that which is
lost. In order to make this going forth
an effective work of reclamation, we
must call to our aid only true, Cody
women, who arc consecrated enough to
cast off false ideas of modesty, and
come out with true womanly swestness,
and purity, to battle for God, II ONE,
and Native Land Such is Sister Smith
the subject of this announcement. She
comes to every home, as q dispatch
bearer from the Master. Bringing
messages to mothers to "gird on" and
listen to the call of her children, as they
say while my father vainIy battles, moth
er dear, oh, where are you? Yes, Sister
Smith comes to us, armed and equipped
with the weapons OF true conservation
to the work. And our prayer is, may
she be so filled with the Holy Spirit
as to be enabled to do good work in
''rescuing the perishing," and marshall
ing every soldier of the cross, into full
battle line ready for the "grand re-
veiw," of the great Commander. Let
me bespenk for this meek and lowly,
bearer Of the "Alabaster box" and .cup
of cold water" kindly welcome from
each and oil. Let me too ask that We
scorn not though humble they bo the
warnings of these messengers.

The Potts Trial.

Evidence fer the prosecution in the
above Case was concluded this morning,
and the defense opened by INTRODUCING
IA witness Charles Potts, youth of
16 years anil the son of the defendants.
Charley testified that on the evening of
the tragedy he went to bed; heard loud
talking; got mp to see what it mennt and
opened the door just in time to see
Faucet shoot himself. He then went
back to bed; said nothing to his mother
shout it at the time; did not know what
became of the body; had no curiosity to
know; never heard his parents say any
thing about IL except that they to Id him
that if anyone asked about Faucet to
say be had gone East; that he did soy
so wEen asked about it; that no knew
Faucet was dead and that he knew he
lied when hesaid he (Faucett) had
gone East. He tsstifed that he never
asked his parents why they requested
him to tell fhlsehood about the mat
Ter, and they never explained it to him;
i'll fact never mentioned it to him since,
nor told him what his testimony as
witness should be. His statement
shows him to be quite shrewd for one
of his age, bus the most completely de-
voil Of natural curiosity OF any person
we ever heard of.
Mrs. Potts, one Of the defendants,
next took the stand and testified that
she caught Faucet, man 81 years of
age, ia the net OF a criminal assault Oh
her lit le girl, years old, in The latter
part of August, 1887; that she knew
Faucet to be very wicked mau, not
outstanding which she continued to
bake aud wash for him for about four
months after detecting him in such
dasturdIy aud inhuman crime against
her child, and even treated him and
uskel him to stay NIL night on the even
ing OF Jan l, 1885,; This she Claims she
did through fear that Faucet would
kill her or her husband II she refused to
treat him with the courtesy that she
had extended to him previous to his
attempt to tamper with the child. Mrs.
Potts testified that Faucet shot himself
to prevent being exposed for his at
tempt on the little girl, which only
came to tho knowledge OF her h usband
during the alteration that evening, aud
that he, tFaucet) made over to Potts,

a half interest in the bOycOtted firm OF

who is in sympathy with labor Organi-
cations, pays higher wages than other
firms and handles only goods made by
union labor. Furthermore, he states
that the original motive for the boycott
has now disappeared and a continue
ton of the boycott is unjust. The SEN
timent of organized labor may be stated
thus: While organized labor wishes to
do no injustice to this firm, yet it would
hardly be justified in declaring Oft
boycott without official notice from its
own Headquarters. because a general
boycott is never declared unless there
be strong proyocaJiOn for such action,
