A Storm in Nevada,

CARSON, New. July 2.-The weather
was hot this morning up to 10 O'Clock,
when the sky became clouded. Rain
and hail fell, and the wind blew thirty
miles an hour, tearing up shade trees
by the roots and blowing down fences.
The storm ceased within two hours, and
the sun appeared as hot as ever, the
thermometer reaching 80 degrees.

A Regrettable Circumstance.

LONDON, July 2.-The Times Vienna
correspondent, referring to the postal
congress, says it is regrettable that owing
to Germany's opposition. the two Amer
lean proposals were rejected for the Gre
alton of international postage stamps,
and for the free carriage of mails from
country to country. Germany opposed
the first proposal on the ground that the
difference in exchange might lead to
wholesale speculation in stamps.

An Exile,s Death.

PARIS, July 2.-Prince Dolgoroukoff,
recently governor of Moscow. died in
this city yesterday evening. 1t seems
that he left Prussia some time ago,
practically an exile. The prince owed
Jews large sums OF money, and because
of this, he was disposed to be lenient to-
ward them. This the czar did not like,
so he appointed his brother as governor,
and, it is believed, exiled Dolgoroukoff.

BEN ALPS TRIAL.

He Swears BY Allah's Garment That He
Is Not the Ripper.
NEW York, July 2.-In the trial of
Ameer Ben Ali, alias Frenchy, supposed
to be Jack-the-Ripper, today, the ac-
cused gave his testimony through an
interpreter. When asked if guilty, he
replied, with tears: "By the garment
of Allah am innocent" After repeated
protestations of innocence, he pleaded
"Spare my life, gentlemen! Spare my
life, gentleman !" Being shown the
bloody knife found on him when ar
rested, he again became excited and ex-
claimed that he never saw it before.
The case goes to the jury tomorrow.

Public School .sxss, nm.

As-the public school law has beer.
amended it has and. will neesssari-
ly l5ring about some comment con-
corning it, and as l have have had
soEoe experience in teaching and
am,nOw interested in this. welfare of
the public schools of this country, L
will therefore give expression to a
few thoughts through your paper,
and hope to hear from teachers or
anyone else who is likewise inter-
ested in the same. L am ready to
agree with all, that our school sys-
tenn has beenvery imperfect, but
as Iview it from my standpoint,
the old law was better in some re-
spects than the present one, for ex-
ample, a pupil; cannot advance.
any farther in arithmetic than
interest under the new law, while
under the old the pupil could all
vance as far as he wished, which,
you can see practically cuts out the
advanced scholars, especially in the
country schools.
l don't want to, be understood to
be opposed to the graded systera. at
all, but I do believe to have left the
primary branches as they were
with probably one exception,
that being Geology, excluded from
the curriculum of study, and then
establishing secondary schools in
the city, where it would not debar
any pupil from advancing would
have been decidedly better. TIL,
theory is very good one but prac
tically it is bad, especially out o
the city schools, this feature of it a
least. Teachers will have plenty o
work to do to cary out this graded
system, and l want to be understood
to work in harmony with the teach
ers so far as can as a Director IL
carrying out this system. Let m,
hear from teachers and others upol
this subject.

I In company with friend, started

known as Happy Valley. The ali
was balmy snd celebrating. The
birds blended their voices in sweet
harmony. The insects were all bus

buzzing and hHInming about APP
parantly happy. The trees, flowers,
ferns, and shrubs all draped in their
various hues gave nature such a
grand aspect that one might imag-
inc himself lifted by the grandeur
of the scenery to- a higher state of
existence.
We traveledIira vehicle known
as the road cart. AS the day wore
on we reached Ghilhewee noun

was at last reached, but we found
nothing Of interest save few huek-
lie berries, and a look over the sur
roucading country. To descend into
the valley was the next on pro-
gramme. So we proceeded to go
down into the valley where frappi.

whether it really does or net.
The first thing of interest we met
wasthe captain of the Happy VAL
ley base ball club, who struck three
strikes at us but missed as every
time. We inquiries the way to a
gentleman's house, and were told
that 1t was "a mile or little bet.

the ''fittle better" meant about two
miles, as we travelled three Siles Of
