THE TWO CLASSICS .
Who are the Rustlers and Who are
the CrOakers,

The Oroville (Cal) Register says:
Every town has two classes of citizens.
One is trying to build up the place. They
work for their own ends. They are am
bilious, they seek to make money, but
at the same time they interest capital in
the various enterprise they undertake.
They give employment to as many men
as possible. They are wide-awake to
catch point that will help or benefit
them, but help others also. They help
the workingman, they help the merchant
and the printer. They may be grasping,
avaracious, try to own the earth and a
part of the moon, but they do something.
They set money in motion, they keep
at it till something is accomplished.
They are the salt that keeps the town
from spelling. They never sit down and
whine over dull times or dull periods.
They are known as hustlers. 1t is their
ambition to be recognized as sharp, keen,
shrewd business men; they hold on like
grim death to what they undertake; they
are men who rustic, and succeed if sue.
cess is possible.
It is needless to picture the other class.
Go out on the street and listen to the
first croaker, and in five minutes you
will know all about the second class we
have in mind.

Times. Review: Free coinage means
silver at par. Silver at par, means
twice Nevada's population in less than
two years time, with corresponding in.
crease in the future. 1t means the
working of five times the number Of
mines now being operated, and the re.
clamation of millions of acres of land
now virtually useless for agricultural
purposes. Collectively it means an era
of prosperity for Nevada unrivaled in
the history Of any State in the Union.

CHINESE THANKsGIvING.- Thursday
morning, Jane and Fannie, two of China.
towns lone females got into an alterca.
tion, and after assailing each others
characters for some time, squared off for
pugilistic encounter without stating
whether Marquis of Queensbury rules,
or those of the London Prize ring should
govern. At the second short round,
Jane went down in heap and her head
coming in contact with stone, she
claimed foul. 1t wasn't Above, to she
threw up the sponge and struck out to
have China Joe-her best man decide
the point. He sshortly appeared on the
scene, armed with stout club, under
the forcible use of which,
though after demurring, Fannie was
obliged to yield, but claimed a foul on
her side, and appealed to Constable
Smith for decision. The strong arm of
the law was invoked, under the infu-
ence OF which an amicable decision was
soon obtained and matters in Chinatown
once more run smoothly.
THANKSGIVING BALL.-As is usual on
such occasions, goodly sized crowd
gathered at Browns Hall Thursday
evening at the ball then given there.
The floor was crowded, umcomfortably so
at times, and all present appeared to enjoy
themselves fully. The music under the
leadership of Professor Nelson was
exceptionally good and dancing was
continued until four o'clock the following
morning. Supper was served at the
Phoebe Hotel, and as usual Mrs Taylor
did her best to please, and succeeded in
doing so. The absence of printed pro.
grams at the ball did not meet with gen.
eralapproval. 1t is much more convenient
and causes less confusion to have full
program ready for reference.

IDelsarte,

Delsarte.
Arrangements have been made by many
interested in the study of Delsarte-the
practical gymnastics, &c., as we'll as the
philosophy-begun by Mrs. Bishop, to con-,
tinue with Mrs. Laura J. Tisdale, directress
of the dramatic department Of the Chicago
Musical college. She will be in the city to-
day, and tonight at the High School hall
will deliver lecture on the subject of the
"Delsarte Philosophy and meet those
thinking of continuing or beginning this
study.
Mrs. Tisdale is one of the first teachers OF
Delsarte and the dramatic art in this coun-
try. as well as lady of rare culture and a
ripe scholarship. She has been teacher al
most from her youth, and was one of the
earliest students of the Delsarte philosophy
in America, being pupil of Genevieve Steb-
bins, author Of The only authoritative Ameri
can work as Delsarte, the publication of
which work Mrs. Tinsdale superintended
For years she has taught the practical work
in her classes at the Chicago Musical College
and delivered numberless lectures on the
philosophy to literary clubs and gatherings
in Chicago Boston, New York and the other
literary centers of this country
The work accomplished by Mrs. Bishop is
but the bepinninp-the mere lifting of the
veil before a study that is as delightful as it
is comprehensive. The philosophy reaches
the secrets of all true art-tbe art of the
Greeks in sculpture, Of the great masters in
painting, the great lights of the stage. tits
in short, the philosophy of all art expires
sion
The practical work-the gymnastics,
which have been so prominent feature of
Mrs. Bishops instruction aim to, and do,
if reasonably well practiced, develope
beauty of form, and gracefulness of carriage
and motion; improves the voice AMI lungs.
and teaches how to conserve physical force,
so much of which is wasted in aimless physi,
cal endeavor in every day lie. 1t is study
that appeals to the intellect, which in prac-
tice it is a conservator of health and beauty.
Indeed we know of no more thoroughly de>
lightfal study that has ever been taken up
in this city, or one that SO directly appeals
to every thinking man, woman or youth.

fear or hope that it will ever disturb the
