coinage bill, as it has been ascertained
shat the President would veto such q

The only way to secure the free
coinage of silver is to elect man for
President who is not owned soul, body
and breeches by Wall street and
National banks. For this purpose it
will be necessary to. go further west
than Indiana for an available man.

A Good Story Told at tho Expense OF .
Brooklyn Society Lady.
A story is going the rounds of Brook
lyn's fashionable circles, says the New
York Herald, which shows how absent
minded persons may often find them
selves in very embarrassing situation.
One of Brook;yn's reigning society
bellies, it is said, recently entered q
Court street .copfectioners to indulge
her taste for sweets. She had been shop
ping and carried a number OF small
packages, which she laid on the counter
while waiting the filling of her order
"a pound of French mixed"
When she was about to go the polite
clerk laid OBTAINING hand on her arm.
beg pardon, MISS" he said, "but
you've forgotten something" pointing
to small oblong package on the coun-
ter.
The young lady looked at the package.
1t did not in any way resemble any she
had received during her shopping tour.
1t was oblong and fiat, and seemed to
contain something of hard nature. She
finally counted her packages, decided
that it was not hers and said so.
But the clerk was sure he had seen her
lay it down, and the proprietor, who was
called in, also insisted that his fair GUS
toner was the owner of the mysterious
package.
''But it is not mine," she returned,
greatly annoyed. II have all nv pur-
chases. If you think it is mine open it,
and that will soon prove l am right"
"That's So" was the confectioner's re-
spouse, and without further parley he
SIT the string and unrUlled the paper.
First piece of fine brown paper was
taken off, then some fine tissue paper,
and under this was-what do you
th1nk?-an deliberately engraved silver
coffin plate, which informed the aston
1shed beholders that William Stubbs"
had died in his sixtieth year, while a
pious wish that his soul might rest in
peace appeared below in fine engravers'
script. The young lady shrieked and
almost tainted, for she at once remem-
bered that her last call before coming
to the confectioner's was to an en-
graVer's to get some visiting cards en-
graVed in peculiar style which is be-
coming fashionable. In faint voice
she explained this to the confectioner
and then offered to take back the plate.
She was allowed to. do so, followed by
the amused looks of the confectioner's
clerk. .... ..
On arriving at the engraver's she
found that the place had been turned
almost inside out in the vain search for
the c"Rn-plate of the late Mr.. Stubs,
who WI to BIO buried next day. She
had pic Ked it up with her other parcels
on leaving the place before.

The District Judgeship.

The people of E!ko county will
heartily indorse the following from
Tuesdays Reno Journal:
The position of United States Dis
trict Judge of Nevada, made vacant
by the death Of Judge Sabin, must
soon be filled by the President, and
the name he should send to the Sen
ate of the United States is r. r.
rBigelow, at present a,District Judge
Of the State. Judge Bigelow is as
clean man as ever sat upon the
Bench in any country. He is sober
man. He would never disgrace the
position by becoming the slave of in
toxicating liquors while upon the
Bench. He is an honest Judge. No
amount of money could buy an opin-
ion from him. He is an able Judge.
He knows the law, and renders de-
cisions accordingly. He is student
of the books, and wastes not his time
in idleness. The people of the battle
born State should insist that tho Ne
vada delegation present Judge Bige-
lows name to the President for the
vacant place.

Jay Gould's Prayer.

Our father who art in England,
Rothschild be thy name; thy financial
kingdom come to America, thy will
be done in the United States as it is
in England. Give us this day our
bonds in gold, but no silver; give US
plenty of laboring mems votes to keep
monopoly in power, and their friends
In office. We know, our father, that
We have done many things that were
wrong; we have robbed the honest
poor and brought distress to many a
door We know it was wrong to re-
fund the bonds and make them pay
able in coin; we know it was wrong
to demonetize silver; we know it was
wrong to water our railro ad stock,
but thou knowest we made money
by that. Now, our father, thou
knowest We are above politics. 1t is
the same to us whether Republicans
or Democrats rule, for thou knowest
we are able to sway all political jobs
in our favor. Lead us not into the
ways of the strikers, but deliver us
from the hands of the insane Knights
Of Labor and the Farmers Alliance.
Thus shall we have the kingdom,
bonds, interest, power and gold until
the Republic shall end. Amen

Mrs. O'SnEA, for whose love Parnell
is having such a tussle with the Irish,
lacks great deal of being an ordinary
woman, and least of all can it be said of
her that she is an adventures. She is
of English blue blood possessed Of intel
lect and refinement. Her brother, Sir
Evelyn Wood, is one OF the best generals
in the British army and, after Lord
Wolseley and Sir Frederick Roberts,
who are both Irishmen, next in the
line of promotion for commander-in-Uhief.
He has d bitter quarrel with his sister
over fortune of 100000 left her by an
aunt, recently dec 5ased, and is known to
have been for long time urging O'Shea,
with Joseph Chamberlain, whose motive
was political, to the action " Which has
brought disgrace on the Irish leader.
Mrs. O'Shea is handsome, with a pearly
white skin, wealth Of golden hair and a
graceful volump tous figure. She has
fascinating manner and is charming
in conversation, with cultivated literary
tastes and mans knowledge of politics.
The breath of suspicion had never touched
her until she met Parnell. She started in
to help him politically and ended by be-
coming infatuated with him. The fasci-
nation was mutual.

Gov. Prince has filled the vacancies
caused by the abandonment of their

endorses the action of Sec Thomas while
acting governor in filling fhe yacan-

commissioners in this county. The action
of both these officials in these matters is
proper, right, lawful and legal. 1t was

The Cars Family.

The empress of Russia has her
daughters much with her, and has
not even 80 called governess for
them. Her own personal attendant
and her lady of honor serve also for
them. In part this springs from the
emperor's love for simplicity of life.
but in part, also, that they try to
surround themselves with as few peo-
pie as possible, SO that as little as
may be concerning their private life
should trnnspire to the outer world,
of whom they are, and not without
good reason, much afraid. The en-
press superintends in person the edu-
cation of the two little grand
duchesses, Xenie and Olga, aged re-
spectively Ia and 6. The emperor in
his leisure moments tries to do the
same for his boys. Especially he
loves to give them music and
dancing lessons, for he thinks him
self great musician, and has a pre-
dilection for the cornet-a-piston.-
