Ny grandfather had seen service in

He was in Paris at the time of the
Kings death tLouis 16th) and for some
time before that tragic event. He
speaks in his journal of having met
several of the leading revolutionists of
that time at a friends house. and char
acterizes them as exceeding plain men,
but very jealous He passed the day
of the Kings execution, which he calls
.one of horror, in Versailles, and was
erieved at the conduct of several
Americans who not only remained III

When he finally left Paris,a prescribed
nobleman. disguised as footman, ac-

Colonel Ward, as my grandfather

Wha WI wadauorth Do To Be Saved ?

Whas WI Wadsworth Do To Be Saved 2
EDITOR DrsPATcH: | have noticed
that for several issues OF your paper you
have been calling the attention Of our
citizens to the necessity of having some
adequate means OF fighting fire in this
town. The burning of Mr.. Lothrop's
house last Friday night ought to be ex-
ample enough to all our people. Had
there been any wind to speak OF, the
chances are ten TO II that instead OF
having to chronicle the burning Of one
of our residences, you would have had to
write up an account of the destruction o.
the whole of one OF our residence streets,
and more than likely of the whole of the
north side of our town.
Now, the question arises, can the peo-
pie, the property owners of a town the
size of W~adsworth, afford to let this mat.
ter drag, and as a result, wake up some,
morning and find one-half OF the tow
reduced to ashes? |, for one, say most
emphatieally, No! AS a citizen and a
taxpayer in this town, | believe it to be
my duty to take some steps to preserve
this town from wanton waste. 1t was
only by the ~tireless energy aud persist
eirt effort on the part of II young mel
hat the town was saved last Frida,
night. If We had had an engine with p
water reservoir to draw from, the towr
would have been comparatively saf
rom further destruction. Now, while ]
am not DESTROYS of being considered a
boomer" l believe it behooves ever,
property owner to take action in thir
matter. Ny idea is that we ought to
have a meeting of our citizens and talk
this matter over. | am told that our en-
terprising townsmaA. Supt. Whited,
speaking for himself and the company
he represents, is willing to do anything
reasonable to help us along. If this is
80, | can see nc reason why Wadsworth,
by a moderete outlay of money, cannot
nave q good and etncient fire depart.
nent. Let all men who take an interest
in this cause meet at K. OF p. Hall next
saturday evening at 8 O'Clock to talk the
natter yer w. II. A. Pike.

Crazy.

Chas. B. Slaughter, the negro who
has been doing odd jobs around Wads-
worth for some months past, went
insane last Friday night. SNOWFALL. AZ
he is better known, has been a little
queer" for some time and his derange-
nent was not entirely unexpected. His
hallueination was that somebody wan
ed to kill him. He came tt the
DfsPATcH Office in q state Of terror and
lid behind one of the doors IN the
sanctum. He Gained down long
enough to muster courage TO 90 out on
he street and started for the river, which
he swan twice before coming back to
own. Deputy Sheriff w. 7. Golding
took him in charge and landed him in
the Reno Jail. The Republican State
Central Commute owes poor SNOWFALL
$3.50 but the secretary OF that body,
VIM. Hy Doan of Carson, has not, to
date, had the courtesy to answer whether
or not, there were any funds to pay this
now miserable being for labor performed
during the late campaign. While we
are not financially able to take . pleasure
trip to the seaside, we will, if Mr. Dean
will be gentlemanly enough to answer
repeated communications and say
there are no available funds to pay
SNOWFALL, pay the bill out Of our own
pocket.

The Pacific Self Helper Company.

DR.. Herdan, formerly of Carson and
Reno, has recently become associated
with the Pacific Self Helper Medicine Co.
as the President, and is placing the
remedies all over the United States.
The company has a capital stock, we
are informed, of $500, 900 and have
already placed a large stock in Me-
vada and California drug stores. In
a few days the same can be found in
our leading drug stores. Reports
from the company are very favorable
and in consequence the plant will be
removed from Austin to San Fran
cisco, where the manufacturing can
be carried on to better advantage and
OH a larger scale.
The doctor is well known in the
State generally, as a physicisn of merit,
and it is useless therefore to introduce
him further.

What l Saw at the Fire Last Friday
Night.


There is always a humorous az well as
a serious side at a fire. Excitement
seems TO run away with men land wo-
men, too sometimes, and after it sub
sides there are often many ludicrous
scenes one can call to mind. The fire in
our town last Friday night vas no ex-
ception, and ii We could put our thoughts
on paper, there is no doubt we could
cause a smile to flow over the s~ternest
features.
1t ls said that when the fire was first
discovered by two ladies living in thu
neighborhood, that they darted out on a
brisk run, giving the alarm in ringing
tones, and ran SO fast and go far that
they did not get back to the scene of the
confiagration till the next morning.
While Bob Arthur WAS holding a small
garden hose in trying to keep the flames
from spreading, a lady came frantically
along and asked MI. A. if he could not
get on top OF the house and stick the
hose down the stove pipe.
"What for 2" asked sturdy Bob.
"Why. SO you can fill the house with
water and keep 1t from burning"
Major Pike seemed to be boss of TIL
bucket brigade, and he seensd to thinl
some of the boys on the top of the par
sons residence were keepieg the empt,
buckets too long on the roof. ."Send
down those empty buckets" yelled Pike,
and forthwith a laddie hurled a bucket
straight to the ground, and striking Pete
Swanson squarely on top of the head,
bottom up, it as effectually blindfolded
Pete as though he had been playing
''blindman's buff"
While removing the furniture from
Alex. Arthnr's residence, some excited
individual took a box Of butter from thu
pantry and deposited it on the kitchen
stove. There being a hot fire in the
stove, Immediately. the butter began &c
sizzle and fry. "Oh, this house is or
fire, l know. | can smell the lining"
The next morning Mrs. A.. could not
find her slippers. Smelling burning
shoe leather about the stove, she opened
the oven door and found her slipper
neatly placed in the frying pan, roasting
in the oven.
One excited old lady first gathered
three flat-irons in her capacious apron,
then harvested a lot of glassware on TOP
of them and carefully took the whole
load across the street and threw them
down on a looking glass.
"Snow Ball" caught the contagion, and
after the fire was all extinguished, took
a stampede through town, screaming as
though forty demons were after him.
He ran down and across Tom Her
mans ranch, and coming to the Truckee
river (bank full), IVAN acros it, then
took a cut down the opposite bark till
he came to Billy Persons fence. which
SHE'D him into the river again. He
swan it q second time and landed back
in town in the alley between Mr.. Lewis
aid Mr.. Dorsey's houses. He has not
fully recovered his equilibrium yet, and
is now meditsting over the affair within
the confines of the Reno cooler.
Another individual came back to Main
street and deliberately stuck his head
through the heavy glass in the Star
Route show window. No doubt lie was
looking Tor a fire. The look cost him
ten dollars.
The Wadsworth dispatch. [volume] (Wadsworth, Nev.) 1892-1899, 1892-12-14

We return our kindest thanks to the
boys who helped us last Friday night at
the fire in carrying out and handling our
household goods. Their work was well
done, and they will always be remem-
bered. Yours truly,
