oughbred Gray Eagle and from a daugh-
ter of Bertrand. At the time President
Lincoln called for three months men,
Christopher A. Morgan (who was a very
loyal NAM raised company of men of
which he was captain. He came to my
place and wanted should take his hor-
SEES. His pet driving mare was splen-
did animal. Mr.. Morgan controlled
Neave's Clay, and as he would not need
his Old Pilot mare, and very much want
ed colt from her, he bred her to Neave's
Clay and cautioned me to take good care
of her. When the three years men were
called for, he enlisted for that time and
was made colonel; but soon resigned
from his command to go upon General
Pope's staff. This was in August, 1861.
At this time he sold me the Old Pilot
mare Gas he called herr but reserved a
half in the foal in her. The next spring
she dropped a horse colt, colored and
marked like herself, and we named it
Clay Pilot. | then bred the mare to my
horse Cassius NJ. Clay, Jr., a horse
raised and owned near twenty years, al
though he was better known as Strader's
Clay, and later was sold to Mr.. Withers
of Kentucky. The old mare produced
FLY to my horse, and bred her to him
again. The filly was also marked like
the mare but was lighter bay and with
H. H.. 81 he,
a gray catch FLY reported as dam of Clay
Pilot. | never had a catch filly on my
farm, and have been a horse breeder
here for 80 years. Colonel Morgan sent
down gray mare with his old Pilot
mare, but she died soon after she came
on to my place; but she had no foal. The
mare Old Pilot was well along in her
teens, but looked and acted young. She
was very handsome and game mare of
rich bay in color, with white hairs
sprinkled through her coat. She had
beautiful head, eye and ear, and long
fine neck. For marks, her hind legs were
white to the hooks, and one front leg was
white to the knee; then she was gray in
the flanks, and at the root of her tail she
had handsome white strip in her face,
and take her all through, one seldom sees
a more attractive horse or mare. She
looked thoroughbred, although she was
by Old Pilot. Her fine quality l think
she took from her dam by Gray Eagle.
She was bred exactly as wrote you long
since, and her colt by Neave's Clay
named Clay Pilot to identify tie sire and

Bartine at Washington

The Washington correspondent
OF the Reno Journal has the fol-
lowing about Nevada's Congress
man:
Congressmaa Bartine has been
here since the goth inst. He took
an active AID tor new member, a
very prominent part in the Speaker
ship contest. While entertaining
very high opinion of Mr.. Reeds
abilities and the value OF his SER
vices as party leader, he felt
that the interests OF his constituents
required the election OF Speaker
more in accord with our Western
ideas, particularly upon the silver
question. His support, therefore,
was given to Nr. Cannon, Of IL
linois, but ne stood ready 10 ,vete
for any one OF the four Western
candidates whose election seemed
possible. Sc much prominence was
given to the silver question in the
preliminary skirmish, that he
deemed it inadvisable to attend the
St. Louis Convention, believing
that he could do more good here.
II was quite noticeable that ali
OF the candidates were especially
anxious to procure Nevada's Repre-
sentatives support, because of the
tact that he more peculiarly and
distinctly, than any mem Der OF
the House. represents silver pre-
ducing State. The Western man
made a gallant, Though disorganized
fight, Reed winning In q caucus by
only one vote.
MIR. Bartine since here has made
n very favorable impression upon
all who have met HIM, and many OF
the older members speak of him in
high praise. lie is regarded as a
man OF high ability, and it is pre-
dicted that his career will be in the
highest degree creditable to himself
and advantageous to the State.

Rough Zeal.

II Is told of q young lad who is a
pupil in the Truckee schools, says
the Republican, that a few days ago
the principal remarked that the next
day he would give the lad mention
ed a good thrashing. Fully expect
ing such chastisement, the boy
went to work and padded himself /;
stuffed his breaches full of hay, and
under his coat, and around his legs /;
anywhere that timber switch
would be likely to strike. Thus
prepared he went to school with a
broad grin. But his face length
ened ~ the day passed and the SUBJ
jsct of whipping was not referred
to. 1t failed to come and he was
call broke up" He DOW hates
that teacher worse than he did be-
fore.

A BETTER OUTLOOK.

According to the Assessors re-
ports in the various counties the
fetal valuation of property In the
State in 1889 foots up about $780,
100000 This estimate is exclu-
sive of the value of mines on the
Comstock, as represented in the
quoted prices of the shares issued
by the mining companies whose
property is located on the lode,
which il added, increases the total
to about $3.50 900, 900.
The total gold and silver yield of
the lode and the current year will
reach about So, $50 900 and that of
the State about So 100000.
The estimate is nearly 81 ,00o,-
600 below the gold and silver yield
Of the State in 1888. The shrink
age is principally in the output of
the Comstock mines, which was
curtailed on account of lack of
ore crushing facilities, the stage Of
water IN the Carson river being too
lew from June until November to
furnish power for operating the
stamp mills along the course of that
stream. and not to an exhaustion of
the ore resources of the lode.
The early and copious snow and
rainfall of the present winter,
coupled with the renewed activity
In Tuscarera, Robinson and Phoebe
districts, justifies that the gold and
yield of Nedada in 1890 will exceed
$40, 900, 900 and that of the Com
stock Sc, 900, 900.

GREAT L. $. SENATOR'S.

We have received from the publishers,
ROBERT bonner & Sons, New York, I, copy
of Great Senator'S Of the United States.
1t is written by OLIVER DYER, VINO was
official reporter of the [. S. Senate in
1915 1t is decidedly bright, fresh and
readable little book full of anecdotes in
which the aut hor gives his Impressions Of
CALHOUN, BENTON, CLAY WEBSTER, JET
.EHsOA DAVIS and other great men. MIR.
DYER was al abolitionisr, and confesses to
having had prejudice against Mr.. CAL
HOUN before be knew that great man. He
says;
was naturally eager 10 get sight of
the great South Carolina nuilfier aud dis
uniouist; and when he was pointed out to
me, in the Senate chamber, | gave him a
searching scrutiny. His appearance sat
isfied me completely. He seemed to be a
perfect image and embodiment of the
devil Had | come across his likeness in
a copy of Miiton's Paradise Lost, | should
at once have accepted it as a picture of
Satan, and as a masterpiece of some great
artist who had peculiar genius for Satanic
portraiture. He was tall aud gaunt. His
complexion was dark and InGlanlike, and
there seemed to be an inner complexion OF
dark soul shining through the skin of
the face. His eyes were large, black, pierre
ing, scintillant His nair was iron gray
and rising nearly straight from his scalp,
fell over on ali sides, and hung down in
| thick masses like a lions name. His fea-
lures were strongly marked, and their ex-
preston was firm, stern, aggressive,
threatening.
After hearing Mr.. CALHOUN speak, and
coming to know him well Mr. DYER's opin-
ions underwent a complete change. He is
honest enough to express his changed
opinions in these words
was much Impressed by the clearness
of CALHOUN's views. by the be!l-iIke sweet
gance of his demeanor such d en- oi,4a-
ton of attractive qualities was a revela-
ton to me, and | spontaneously wished
that CALHOUN was an Abo!itionlst, We
could have him talking on our side.
At the beginning OF the contest my feel
| ings were against CALHOUN and | wanted
| him TO be worsted; but at the close, al
| though | was opposed to the principle
| which he advocated, my personal feelings
were in his favor, and his physlognomy
| seemed to have undergone change. In
| stead of looking like devil, he Impressed
me as a high.toned, elegant gentleman
| with a brilliant intellect, sweet disposi

| devotion to what he believed to be right
|
He was by odds the most fascinating
