How An Irhh-IndIan Got Ahead of Gov
srnor Dushyhead
Bushyhead, one of the members OF
the Cherokee commission, is in WASH
ington, and many a onc says tho New
York Tribune, passes tho Indian chief
without knowing hc is an Indian. He
Is tall, brown of skin, but has tho feat
urcs of tho Caucasian rarc, and 1t Is
said that no is not moro than one-cighth
Indiln.
He married some years ago q niece OF
Senator Butler, of South Carolina, who
had gone out to Tahlcquah as 4 teacher.
A good story is told Of him whcn he was
Governor OF tho Cherokee Nation. The
Cherokecs arc tho most civilized of all
the Indian tribes and one OF their laws
Is in favor of prohibition. The law of
tho United States is that no one shall
give or sell firc-watcr to an Indian, but
the Cherokee Legislators go further aid
prohibit the bringing OF it into the Ter
ritory.
In Tahlequah, when Eushyhead was
Governor, there was m Irish black
smith named Mike Delaney. Now,
Mike had been received into the tribe
because he had married q squaw, and,
strange IS it may seem, was moro an
Indian than any native. lie used to
oratc by tho hour over his forge at the
wrongs of the rcd mcn, and enc OF his
favorito perorations was:
"Wc have been pairsccuted by the
white man, dhrivcn from our homes in
Georgia over mountains an valleys, an
our noble inheritance stholcn away
from as"
Mike frequently delivered himself OF
this and the more lrc-watcr he h:.l in
him tho more nanncl-mouthed and un-
Indian was his broguc. lie and Nushy-
head woro great friends, and onc day
when tho Governor WAS ut the court
house presiding ovc the meeting of tho
Legislature the squaw-man appeared
and bcclioncd im~pcriously.
Como here" he whispered, "Oi'vc
something to tell you. There's n dead
mulc in town" y dead mule" is West
crn slang for I kcg Of whisky.
GIVE mo . dollar" continued Mike
IAN I'll buy ! bottle an keep it in tho
shop until ycz can be afturr comm K

Tho Governor cav tho money and
half an hour later, dcputizing some o n
To take his place, he made his way 4

inspiring strains OF tho Irish Washer
man." and as no drew near he rccog
ni2cd the oi.-rcpc.tcd refrain, "Och
hone, Widow Machrcc, och hone, Nid
ow Machrcc," the melody stontly main
tanned by an anvil chorus. Rushing in
he was confronted by the hilariou
blacksmith, whom he ut onco asked 70
his share OF tho dead mule"
"Do aisy, GUNNER" cried tho Irish
Indian, there's only two heels left, NJ
I'll drink that, rs the laws agin' givir

a PestiIencc Feared.

The INDEPENDENT, some time since,
advised that the OF dead cat
tie be either burned or buried, in
order to prevent sickness which
would surely DO cngcndered from
the effluvia which would arise from
the d~ecaying bodies if they we're per,
mittcd to remain on the surface. In
support OF this theory the Silver
State OF yesterday says:
The railroad boys say there are
hundreds of dead cattle along the
Humboldt and the arc ap-
parently piled up on each other in
tho vicinity OF Dccth, Elko county.
A stencil is already arising from
these masses of ~decaying animal mat
ter and the efluvia will DO ~intolerable
when the weather gets warmer. a
pestilence will prevail in some local..
tirs unless tho are burned
or buried.

Glorious Rain.

A delightful shower Get in early
this morning and continued almost
necessarily up TO noon when tho
Free Press rain guage showed a pre-
cipitation OF So OF an inch of water.
The clouds then broke away and it
seemed that the shower was over, but
o o the sky was overcast with black,
heavy clouds and the rain poured
down again, quite an amount OF
water having fallen during the after
noon.
This rain is a glorious thing for
tho country, rs the surface OF the
earth was beginning to get dry, but
now, il it remains warm, vegetation
will spring up and soon tho whole
country will be covered with verdure.
From present appearances there viii
be moro feed than there will be stock
to consume it, and the prospects FOL
those engaged in ngr culture are un'
usually favorable.

TURNS HAIR BLACK.
Evon White Hair Altered by the Use
Jaboraudt.

Evon White Hair Altered by tho Uso OF
Jaborandi.
DR.. Prentiss has rotated to the Lon
don Times 4 remarkable occurrence fol-
lowing tho uSe of jaborandi. Tho pa
lent was q woman aged 72, who had
snow-whitc hair for twenty years. For
tho symptoms of commencing urnmi,
duo to contracted kidney, 90 or 80
minims Of extract OF jaborandi was pre-
scribcd several times daily. =,
Tho drug was taken from October,
1885, TO February, 1883. During tho
autumn OF 1887 the eyebrows woro be-
coming darker, and the hair of the head
became also darker in patches. This
continued until the patches of hair wcro
quito dark, contrasting with tho natural
patches OF snow-whitc hair. Tho hair
did not universally change before her
death. .-:
In 1851 DR.. Prcntiss had published
another case Of kidney discaso-pyclo-
nc-phritis - treated with pilo ~carpinc.
The hair of tho patient, n lady aged
twenty-five, changed from light blonde
to black under the influence OF tho drug.
The pilo-carpine was administered
hypodcrmically (onc-sixth OF n grain)
JWcnty-tNO Times In the course OF two
months; tho dose was then increased.
In one month after commencing tho
treatment tho hair changed from u light
blonde to n chestnut brown; four months
later IL was almost 4 pure black" 1t is
satisfactory to find that eight years
.fterward tho hair Is again a dark
brown. = '~ ~. - S".. ~"san.M:.5.
DIR. Prentiss nscribcs the phenomenon
to the jaborandi and its active principle,
Pilo-carpinc. Cases where, as tho result
OF the influence OF the nervous system,
In pain or fright, tho hair has changed
color, arc pathological curiositics. So
little is known, however, OF tho physio-
logical influence OF the nervous System
over tho growth and nutrition OF hair,
that IT is at present quite impossible to
understand how n drug administered in
tcrnally can alter tho color OF the hair.
1t would DO interesting to learn from
other practitioners who havo used iabo-
randi or pilo-carpine for IN extended
period whether any change In tho color
OF hair has bccn noticed.

at the grand carnival which will be
held on the occasion OF tho browning
Of the King OF the new dependency

the coming festivities at Ogden, which

Gorgeousness anything heretofore

THERE WILL BE A SACK ALL
THE SAME.

It will not do to assume that be-
cause OF the declaration OF Hunting
ton that the railroad Is going out OF
politics that there will be no Repuoli-
can sack in Nevada this Fall. 1t

Newlands and the rest will put up
whatever is necessary to secure the
purchasable vote. Besides Hunting
ton is the devoted friend OF Senator
Jones and may see his way clear to
chip in il called upon, rs he will be.
Tho Huntington faction swears by
Jones, while the Stanford Gage Gle
ment in the company is more closely
allied to Senator Stewart. But the
Jones faction is now in command OF
the affairs of the railroad. This will
give him the support OF the great
corporation as usual. In so far as the
coming election in this State is con.
cerrad. the change OF management is
not going to give the Democrats any
better chance than they have always
enjoyed. But there may come a time
in the dim future when decent meth,
DDS will prevail in our elections in

The Schoolhouse Flag.

In response to tho announcement
heretofore made, a large number Of

dren OF Elko assembled at the school
house yesterday afternoon to witness
the ceremonies in connection with

aud stripes over institutions designed

At LEO the exercises opened with n
song, America" by the children OF
the school, led by Mrs. Reeves at the
organ; this was followed by n decla-
nation, "The Union,"by Paul Keyser;
then came another song, "A Thou
sand Years My Own Columbia" by
the school. This was succeeded 10y an
address by County Superintendent OF
Schools W. G. Love, who gave Il brief
description of the flag, its origin and
the wars through which it had always
been borne in triumph, approved the
custom Of floating this emblem Of
the free over the schoolhouses Of the
country, and appealed to the children
to cherish IN unvavering reverence
for tho flag Of the American Union.
Tho exercises inside the building
closed with n defamation, "Drake's
Address to the American Flag" by
George Hunter.
The audience thcn moved out to
the grounds followed by the school
children who marched out in regular
order, attended by their teachers.
The flag which had been made fast
to tho halyards was then hauled to
the mast heed of the staff by thirteen
boys and girls selected for tho pur-
pose, while tho audience joined in
singing "I'he Star Spangled Banner"
When tho bcautcous banner reached
its destination and unfoldcd itself
to the breeze it was greeted with three
hearty cheers, which was I'M appro-
