Protect Your Health.

Cold and moisture combined have a torpor-

more tardily performed in Winter than in Fall.
The same is true. also, of the excretory func-
lions. The bowels are often sluggish, and the
pores of the skin throw off hut little waste
matter at this season. The system, therefore,
requires opening up little, and also purifying
and regulating, and the safest, sureist and most
thorough tonic and alternative that can be used
for these purposes is Hostetter's Stomach Bit
tiers. Persons who wish to escape the rheu-
matte twinges, the dyspeptic agonies. the pain
full disturbances of the bowels, the bilious at
tacks, and the nervous visitatons so common
at this time-of the year, will do well to enforce
their systems with this renowned vegetable
stomachic and invigorant. 1t improves the APP

Catfish Plentiful.

Last Thursday Charlie Watson
and Gene Pierini went down the
river to Clifton to catch few cat
fish. They returned in the after
noon with about one hundred as
fine fish as one would wish to see.
The average size of the fish was be-
tween 6 and s inches, but several
were caught that measured over
a foot in length. We are indebted
to Pierini for a mess of the fish, and
we believe they are more palatable,
if anything, than the Washoe Lake
Ash. The fish seem to be very plen-
tiful in the sloughs down the river,
but have been somewhat thinned
out in the Horseshoe Lake.

TOWN SITES ON MINERAL LANDS
The Supreme Court Decides An I'm.
pOrtant Question.

In the case of A. J. Davis VS..
Wiehold, appealed to the Supreme
Court of the United States from the
Supreme Court of Montana involv-
ing the title to town site, which
was located on mineral lands, the
Supreme Court of the United
States reverses the decision of the
Montana Court and settles a ques-
ton on which diverse opinions have
been expressed by the General Land
Office Commissioners.
The opinion is by Justice Field
and it says:
'The important question is
whether in the absence of knowledge
that there were any valuable min
eral lands within the town site the
defendant can be deprived of the
premises purchased and occupied
by him because of subsequent
discovery of minerals in them and
the issue of patent to the discov-
erer. After much consideration we
have come to the conclusion that
this question must be answered in
the negative. The object of the
town site act was to afford relief to
inhabitants of cities and towns up
on public lands by giving a valid
title thereto, and such protection as
many towns, with buildings of great
value have grown up. 1t would, in
many instances, be great impedi-
ment to the progress of such towns
if titles to those occupied by their
inhabitants were subject to be over
thrown by subsequent discovery
of mineral deposits under their sur
face. We do not think any such re-
suits were contemplated by the act,
or that any construction should be
given to it as would lead to such re-
suits"

Mining strike.

Recent developments in the Hirsh
Mine, Russ District, owned by Mr.,
Nathan Rhine, are of the most en-
couraging character. The ledge is
now four feet in width, with two
feet of cube galena averaging 100
ozs. of silver per ton. The rest is
made up of good proportion of
honey-comb quartz which prospects
well in free gold. About Is tons of
ore is now out and shipment will
be made at an early day. This new

impetus to mining operations in

Thursday it rained and showed
quite hard here. The snow did not
stay on the ground long as it was
too warm. The rain was not very
warm rain, and it was feared that
after it cleared up a frost would
come that would kill all the fruit.
Up to date, however, no damage has
been done to the fruit, and it looks
as though we might have more rain
at any hour. If frost.does not come
the peach crop hereabouts will be
immense this year.

Bishop, the clothing man, was in
town the other day with fine line
of patterns from New York and
San Francisco. Bishop has the
reputation of giving his patrons
first-class fits, and in speaking of
this particular matter he told an
amusing story about one of the
first orders he received when he
went on the road. He had started
out with fine line Of samples and
when in Carson took several orders.
He was DESTROYS Of securing orders
from the most fastidious dressers
in the Capital City, and did so.
Among others P. D, one of the
biggest tops in the State, gave Bish-
OPP an order for a $40 pair of pants.
Bishop was naturally much pleased
to receive an order from so distin-
guished an authority on dress, and
calculated to do his best to make a
nice fit. In the course of time the
breeches arrived, and few weeks
after their arrival Bishop was again
in Carson looking after trade, and
also anxious to see if he had given
satisfaction. Everything was love-
ly until he dropped into Dempsy's
saloon and there encountered the
said P. D..
"Well, P, how do your new
toys fit your" enquired Bishop.
"Damfno!' replied P, "hav'nt
tried 'em on, but I want you to un-
derstand one thing, and that is that
Pm not left-handed or cross-eyed,
and that I"prefer to have my pants
built upon the regulation plan"
"What's the matter with them ?"
asked Bishop.
"Well, you just come up to the
room and see."
They journied to Mr.. DIS
apartments and the garment was
held up for inspection, when 10 and
behold, Bishop discovered that the
front flap opened from the left in
stead of the right.
The fault, of course, was with the
cutter, and the objectional left
handed garment was sent back to
the shop for alteration. Then they
adjourned to Dempsy's and all took
drink with Bishop.

to decide whether or no 5000 shall
be raised to keep the school in Day
ton open for a greater time than
there are funds now on hand to do.
Considerable money had to be used
to repair the school house lately,
and this has made the funds so
short that the teachers cannot be
paid for June and July unless more
money is raised. There will prob
ably be no opposition to the raising
of the 5000 for this purpose.

An AnsOnia young lady had occasion to
act as conductor on one of the street cars
one day last week under peculiar circum

lady she was riding from Birmingham,
and by mistake in dcpositing fares for
both. dropped a quarter of a dollar into
the box from whence no change comes.

with an unusually loud sound that caused
the driver to take his eyes off the road for
an instant and place them in the direction
of the fare box As his optics caught
sight of the quarter settling itself down
the glass toboggan they also noticed an
outstretched hand belonging to the young
lady and bis ears heard the familiar sound

away all th lights that the young lady had

told her that the best way he saw was for
her to collect three fares from the passen-

the young lady, as any sensible person
would do, bided her time, and from trio
who boarded the car collected the amount
of her deficiency, thus balancing herself
with the companY's treasury.

The Cost Of Gray Hair,

Since It became fashionable to Be gray
the price of real gray hair has risen n
enormous figures. A bair-dreSser in
Sixth avenue recently filed an order for
one of his customers for seven ounces OF
gray hair twenty eight inches long. and
the price was 800 an ounce. or 300 for
the order. The same amount and quality
of light brown hair would have cost about
800 The high price is caused not only
by the great demand that has sprung up
for gray hair, but because good live gray
hair is scarce. 1t is comparatively easy to
secure scant, short gray locks, but few
heads yield the beautiful pearl gray that l.
so fashionable when their owner grow
old. The hair falls out, leaving what re
mains thin and of poor quality, or If It re
mains on the head the ends turn yellow
and fray.
The ordinary lengths of hair supplied IT,

inches. Gray hair is not often found 80

the owner is usually found in that class OF
society that takes too much pride in il
hair to sell it. II takes ten times as long
to f. an order for gray hair a. for the
usual shades Of brown. The head of the
