The appointed station is Maxima, on the
Guanzo River
The total eclipse of sun will be visible in

gins in the Caribbean Sea and skirts the
northern coast of South America, being
visible at only one point there, French
Guiana 1t then moves eastward until it
strikes Africa, few hundred miles south
of the Congo River. An expedition from
the Lick Observatory, in California, will go
to French Guiana to view the eclipse there.

The Ten Health Command =
mentS,

l. Thou shalt have no other food than at
meal time.
q Thou shalt not make unto thee any
pies or put in pastry the likeness Of any
thing that is in the heavens above or in
the waters under the earth. Thou shalt
not fall to eating it or trying to digest it.
For the dyspepsia will be visited upon the
children to third and fourth generation OF
them that eat pie; and long life and vigor
upon those that live prudently and keep
the laws of health.
g. Remember thy bread to bake it well;
for he will not be kept sound who eateth
his bread dough.
4. Thou shalt not indulge in sorrow or
borrow anxiety in vain.
s. Six days shalt thou wash and keep
clean and the seventh thou shalt take a
great bath, thou and thy son and thy
man servant and thy maid servant and the
stranger that is within thy gates. For in
six days man sweats and gathers filth and
bacteria enough for disease; wherefore the
Lord blessed the bath tub and hallowed
it.
6. Remember thy sitting room and bed
chamber TO keep them well ventilated, that
thy days may be long in the land which
the Lord thy God giveth thee.
T. Thou shalt not eat hot biscuit.
s. Thou shalt not eat thy meat fried.
o. Thou shalt not swallow thy food un-
chewed, or highly spiced or just before or
after hard work.
10. Thou shalt not keep late hours in
thy neighbor'S house or with thy neigh
bors wife, nor his man servant or his
maid servant, nor his cards, nor his glass
nor with anything that is thy neighbor's.-

1T is estimated that the cattlemen
lost $4,000 by feeding on the mead.
ows this year. We think the figures
too high, but, be hal as it NAV. Il has
been a disastrous year for those who
fed cattle. This is due TO the fact
that beef was very low all Winter.
and in many instances cattle did not
do as well as they should have done.
owing to so much foxtail being mixed
with the hay. Foxtail makes their
mouths sore and draws them up 40
that they do not take on flesh. This
trouble is a growing one on the mead
ows, and unless some steps are taken
to stamp IL out it will cause a very
serious loss in the future. Farmers
cannot take too much pains TO kill IL
out. This can be done by blowing or
by cutting it just before Il heads out.
The latter would probably be the best
way. To be sure, the first crop of hay
would be necessarily light, but L
would be free from the dangerous eff
fleets of f~oxtail, and the second and
third crops would be larger in conse-
quence Of an early cutting. We have
had some experience with foxtail and
know that unless steps are taken,
and that very soon, TO kill it out that
1T will take the country" - Reno

Against Prohibition.

The Boston Piohibitionists spent
lots Of money at the recent election,
had religious services in the churches,
women at all the polls personally So
Letting votes, and gave strong hot
lunches to those who voted for them,
while the Sunday school children,
carrying flags and prohibition banners,
marched through the streets headed
by a brass band. They would visit
each poll and cheer for the amend
ment, but all this had no result, the
vote in Boston being $500 for and
SO, 740 against. This is 90 per cent
decrease on the November vote. The
change OF sentiment in the State is
startling. Worcester county where
the best cider in the State is made,
gave 1000 majority against Prohibi-
ton. The majority in the whole State
is 1880. The Prohibitionists are
very much disheartened.

The Alturas Era gives a long ac-
count Of the discovery Of the long LOST
Breyfogle ledge in Humboldt county

$500 to $4,000 in gold. The dis.
covery Of a fabulously rich ledge may
be true, but there are strong doubts Of
it being any ledge which Brsyfogle
mot Dreyiogle 10 the Era has III ever
saw. Breyfogle used to live in this
city and spent most Of his life leading
credulous people off into the mount
aims to see lodges which he had dis
covered.
He was as crazy as a bedbug and
never succeeded in showing any one
a ledge that he had seen before. He
once led 1000 men from Downiville to
a place where he claimed that a lake
was lined with gold pebbles so thick,
they could be shoveled up, all solid
gold. He was unable to find the spot

his dupes. 1t was not his fault, he
was simply a poor crazy prospector

John X. Bradley, Of the firm Of Rus
sell q Bradley, who are among the
most extensive cattle owners in the
State, says the firm has 40 or so men
in the saddle gathering cattle which
are to be driven to Montana. Mr..
Bradley says there is not 300 inches of
water in the Humboldt at Elko, where
the river is usually bank full or over
flowing at this season. There is no
prospect of raising much hay on the
river bottoms, hence they will drive
the greater part Of their herds out Of
the State to new ranges. At their
Battle Mountain ranch the outlook is
dry and they propose turning it into a
sheep ranch, as it will not support cat
tie. Other cattlemen in the Eastern
part of the State are driving their
cattle out of the country, as they fear
to keep them in Nevada another Win

The Long Agony over.

The Ladd farce, which has been in
rehearsal for the past nine months,
was performed for three successive
days last week in the courthouse. The
audience was very large and ap'
preciative, many ladies being present,
including members of the Salvation
Army. The actors in the leading roles
were we'll up in their parts. The
principal character in the piece, the
heavy villain" played his part well,
and elected much sympathy from q
certain quarter. Breen, in his Irish
character, was highly appreciated,
and made some telling local
hits. The entire plot OF the
piece was very deep, and was beyond
the comprehension OF the largest por-
ton of the audience. During the clos
ing scenes OF the play, and particularly
so in the last act, a feeble effort at APP
plause was made, when the curtain
was rung down and the disappointed
audience filed out of the courthouse
with a very large sized disgust on,
hoping never again to witness such
q grand judicial farce.

The Town Of TAYLOR.

The White Pine News says: The
once populous and lively town OF Tay-
lor has met the doom of all mining
camps-a sudden collapse by sus-
pension OF work on the mines there.
On its once crowded and busy thor
oughfare all is now still. A Chinese
restaurant Is now the occupant Of the
west side of the street, while Dave
Felsenthal's store and the tin shop
hold disputed sway on the upper side.
Everybody is preparing to get out as fast
as they can. We do not believe Tay-
lor is a dead camp, though il may lay
dormant for some years. 1t has a
large area OF mineral ground that has
as yet been barely scratched.

EUREKA, New, May 5.-Charles w.
Ladd, arrested last August for stealing
silver bullion from the Eureka Con.
solidated Mining Company, was con.
victed last night after a three days
trial.
The above is from the S. F. Ex-
aminer Of the 9th. The Eureka cor
respondent was in error. The jury in
the case rendered a unanimous YER
dict of acquittal, and one juryman
proposed rendering a verdict without
leaving their seats, but the Judge did
not entertain his motion. The jury
went out and returned in about Is
minutes, after taking two ballots. The
first ballot stood ten for acquittal and
two for conviction, the second being
unanimous for acquittal.
