Scarcely less foolish is the practice of those who
fly to violent physicing for costiveIess. They
dose themselves violently weaken their bowels by
so doing, and disable them from acting regularly,
so that, verify, the last condition of such people
lie worse than the first. Hostetter's Stomach Bit
tiers is the safe ard effective substitute for such
vast expedients, for it is by 20 means expedient
to use them. What is needed is a gentle but
thorough laxative, which not only insures action
of the bowels without pain or weakening effects,
which also promotes healthy secretion and flow
OF bile into its proper channel. Dyspepsia, de-
btltty, kidney complaints, rheumatism and ma
laria give in 10 the Bitters.

The San Francisco Report says
that the people of California have
lett it to Sarah Bernhard, the ac-
tress to place before them a new and
delicious dish. This is nothing
else than boiled bananas. The fruit
is taken when just about ripe and
placed with the skins on in a pot OF
cold water. The vessel is then
placed upon the fire and the fruit is
allowed to boil about fifteen minutes
after the water has reached the boil
ing point. Just before the dish is
taken from the stove a smGdl guam
tity o. salt is added to tho water.
After being taken from the water,
the bananas are peeled, placed on a
dish and a sauce of butter, sugar
and either strawberry or orange
havoring is poured over them,
This is French dish and is said to
be delicious.

We are informed that over 2S,-
900 hop vines have been set out in
Mason Valley this Spring, the larg-
est planters being Chas. Bovard
and Mr.. Clifford. Both of these
gentlemen are posted in regard to
hop-raising, as they have been in
the business in California. There
is no reason that we can see why
the hop industry should not become
one of Importance aud profit in this
State, and especially III Mason Val
ley. The home consumption of the
article in Nevada is considerable,
and there is nearly always mar
ket for hops on the outside at a
good price.

doomed up in large proportions last
Thursday evening. After the regu-

astounding discovery was made that
there still remained 50 cents in the
treasury, which aftr a lengthy de-
bate they decided to invest in tenn
perance literature. The entertain
ment consisted of songs, select
readings. Rotations, etc, which
were renderedin a highly entertain
ing manner. Following is the
programme: Recitation, "a Poem in
Greek" by George Bachelor, song
and dance, Melville Leavitt; recita-
ton, 'The irish-woman's Letter"

Oregon, Washington, Omaha and
Chicago have about cleaned up the
beef market for this year. San
Francisco butchers must now de-
pend upon the black Shiny beef of
California or 60 without. For years
they have regulated the price of
Nevada beef from the guage of the
San Francisco market, but this year
they are left. If Nevada beef-pro-
duccrs would cut loose from the
San Francisco butchers and look
elsewhere for q market, they would
undoubtedly realize better prices.

A EIorse EDITOR.

Elery Dixon, one of the proprie-
tors Of the Lassen AdCccote, was,
last week, found guilty of horse
stealing. 1t was shown in the tes-
timony that Dixon was the leader
of a gang of thieves who stole many
head of horses in this locality and
in Oregon, and drove them out of
the county to sell. The arrest ere
ated quite sensation, and the trial
has been long and tedious one.
Dixon has been out on bail and did
not have an idea he would be con-
victed. In fact, he has been sheer
ing at the whole proceedings.

A Dull Town.

Candelaria is said to be exceed
ingly dull, and late arrivals from
there inform us that the business
men are very blue over the outlook
as the new company boarding house
has taken much business away from
the restaurants. Now it is said the
company will open general mer-
chandise store, which it is feared
will still further demoralize things.
The town feeling is said to be very
bitter.

The Sullivan Hsrannan Fight.

The Carson appeal says that the
Sullivan-Brannan fight will be a
private affair for $3.50 a side.
1t will come off somewhere near
Genoa, in the presence of ten per-
sons.
Just where the ring will be pitched
only the managers know, and they
will not give Tip to anyone.
Why this excessive modesty on
the part of the principals is beyond
the ken Of anybody. It's probably
that the fight viii BE- with bare
knuckles, and they don't want the
authorities to have front seats.

residing in San Francisco. He was
then on his way from Candelaria to
Grantsville, this State. Mr.. Apple

Rain.

We have had slight shower OF
rain nearly every day this week,
and the gardens and trees are now
beautiful to look upon. The locust
trees are in bloom and the rosebuds
are opening, making the air redolent
of perfume. The weather is not
very warm yet, but there have been
no frosts. Dayton much resembles
the Garden of Eden in the Spring
time, but it has larger population
and there are no snakes here.

STAGE CONNECTIONS.
Mason Valley the Place 10 Feed In.

Mr.. Brooks, of the firm of Hayes
and Company, of Oakland, fed
quite a number of beef cattle in Ma
son Valley last Winter, and has now
shipped them all to California.
Last Winter was the first Winter he
had fed stock in this Valley, but he
says he will feed there from this
time on, as he saved overS4 900 in
the last season by so doing. Here
tofore he has kept his beef cattle in
the Truckee Meadows during the
Winter. He says it is a mistaken
idea that the cattle lose any flesh to
speak of in driving from the Val
ley to Wadsworth to ship, and
claims that the loss will never be
noticed if the cattle are handled
carefully. He believes that several
others will feed cattle in Mason Val
ley this next Winter besides him
self
