SOME BIG EVENTS THIS YEAR.
Railroads Expect to Reap Harvest In the
Passenger Business.

Railroads Expect to Reap q Harvest In the
Passenger Business.
'The prospects for passenger business this
summer are agnihcent," said Col Samuel
Moody, District Passenger Agent of the
Pennsylvania Company, yesterday. 'It is
seldom that SO many noted events will
occur in one season. First come
the Republican and Democratic Conventions
at Minneapolis and Chicago, and large
crowd will go from this section. Then there
is the Grand Army encampment in Wash
ington in August, the annual meeting of the
knights Templar in Denver, the gathering
OF the Mystic Shrine in Omaha, and the
Knights of Pythias will meet in Kansas
City. All of these orders are we'll repre-
sented in Pittsburg, and numerous
parties have been formed to attend
the meetings Quite a number of the
knights Templar have planned an exten-
sive Western, trip. They will visit the
National Park, take in Vancouver, come
down the coast to San Francisco and then
60 through Southern California and come
home by way of Mexico aud the South. It
is estimated that fully 400, 900 people will
attend the G. A. R. Encampment in Wash
ington- 1t will be the largest crowd that
will gather there since the war.
SIT is surprising how the picnic business
has grown here In The last five years. The
dates for Rock Point are being rapidly
taken. A great many family parties are
being formed to spend their summer outing
along the lakes. They camp out in some
pleasant place, and the expenses when di-
vided up are very small. This is the cheap
est and most pleasant way Of enjoying a
short vacation"

DEFENDS THE REFORMATORY.

James b. Scott Says He Would Rather
Handle 600 Hardened Criminals Than
500 Boys-The Kids Like TO Be Known
as Toughs.
James B. Scott left for Philadelphia last
evening to attend meeting of the State
Board of Charities The revised plans for
the Central Insane Asylum in Berks county
are finished, and they will in all probability
be adopted, with few notifications. Mr..
Scott said Architect Alden, of Boston,
would be here some day this week with the
enlarged design for the Carnegie Library.
Until he comes nothing can be done.
Mr. Scott is also chairman of the COM
mittee appointed to investigate the cruelty
charges against the management of the
Huntingdon Reformatory. The next meet
ing will be held in the Quaker City on
Tuesday. '1f were to express an opinion
of making up my mind in advance. This
much 1 can say, though, they will have to
produce more than they have to prove the
cruelty charges. The trouble at Hunting
don is that some of the boys are too
young. and ought to be put into the
hands of ladies and societies while
others are over age. The courts have
no way of determining the ages of the
Young offenders, for they are great liars
For example there was one boy in the Re-
formatory sometime ago who is in Riverside
now. He lied to the judge, of course. The
warden of the TT. Madison Penitentiarv,
Iowa, happened to visit the place one day,
and he recognized him at once. He had
served Swear term in his prison. This is
only sample of how judges and juries are
deceived. would rather handle 200 hard
ened criminals than 800 of these boys. As
a rule old criminals make the best prisoners,
for they know that good behavior will
shorten their terms. On the other hand the
youngsters haven't reached the reflective
period, and they pride themselves on their
toughness. Their aim is to make as much
trouble for the keepers as possible. They
lie like troopers, and are stepped in all sorts
of villainy. 1t is shocking how much Of
crime these boys know. When Major Nc
Claughrey: who is very humane man, was
attacked in his Office several weeks ago by
Ward, it would have been q good thing
for the discipline of the institution if the
Young criminal had been killed. But the
Major felt that he wouldn't be justified in
taking the boy life. 1t took him fully ten
minutes to overcome Ward"

OUT TO DO BUSINESS.
A Congressional Committee That Is
Not Travelling for Fun Only.
GOING TO INSPECT THE BIG FAIR.
Native Tin to Supply the Demands Of the
Whole Country.
AMERICAN INDIANS TIRED OF WAR

The Worlds Fair Congressional Com
mittee passed through the city last evening
bound for Chicago. In the party were
Dockery, of Missouri, the Chairman; Hen
derson, of Iowa; CogsweIl, Of
Massachusetts,; Compton, of Mary
land; and Breckenridge, of Arkansas.
With the exception of Henderson
they are all Democrats The Iowa man
occupied a seat in the smoker while the
Democratic contingent formed a mutual
admiration society in another car The
committee has been instructed to inspect
the work done at Chicago, and great deal
depends on their report as to whether the
appropriation asked by the Windy City
people will be granted or not.
The Democrats remarked that politics was
simmering down in Washington since the
silver bill was laid on the shelf. They all
agreed that the bill would not be revived
this session. and they were glad of it. Mr..
Henderson was more communicative, and he
asked number of questions about the pros
poets of Quay and Dalzell in the Senatorial
struggle. "a great many Senators with
Presidential aspirations feel relieved since
the House killed the silver bill" said Gen.
efal henderson. 1ney ulun I Wa0J 10 De
put on record. No, don't think it would
have made anv difference with the President.
Harrison is a man of firm convictions and
he acts from principle. If the bill had
passed he certainly would have vetoed it
think President Harrison will be renomi-
mated. In the West the people feel he is
honest, and though his administration of
affairs has not been brilliant, he hasn't made
a bad Chief Executive.
General Henderson laughed when asked
about Governor BoieS as a Presidential
possibility. He remarked that the Iowa
man didn't stand ghost of a chance.
He thinks Cleveland will be the Demo-
cratic nominee. The General said he un-
derstood great progress had been made on
the Worlds Fair, and the general impress
sion is that j. is worthy project and de-
serves the material encouragement of Uncle
Sam. He was not sure, however, that the
appropriation would be passed.

South Dakota Turns Up With a Big Tin

E. E. Samuel, of Rapid City, S. D., was
in Pittsburg yesterday. Mr.. Samuel comes
from the Black Hills region, which has be-
come so famous He is engaged in tin
mining and said:
81 am connected with the Brown tin
mine. The mine is within 12 miles of the
Homestake gold. mime, the richest one in
the world. The mines are being operated
by an American and English syndicate,
which has S15. 900, 900 back of ii. Already
s5,OOO,0 900 has been spent in developing the
country.
'tAt present $50 tons of the raw material
are being smelted every day. Within six
months it is expected that the mines in this
region will be turning out enough tin to
supply the whole trade of the United States.
There are now 1900 men employed and
more miners are wanted.
.'The United States now sends $50. 600. g..
600 annually to Wales for tin. but when
the Brown mine is rightly started this
money can all be kept in America. An
advantage we have over Wales is that we
only have to go down 800 feet to reach
the tin and in Wales it is necessary to 90
1000 feet"

A Gloomy Outlook.

J. A. Plummer, the leading attor-
ney of Elko county, bright young
man and one who is credit and
desirable citizen to any community in
which he may reside, accompanied
with his wife and family and worldly
goods, stopped over here yesterday
between trains while on his way to
Stockton, to permanently locate in
that city. No friend of Nevada can
witness the departure of men like Mr..
Plummer without experiencing sincere
regret. Such men are the kind to
make State young, able and enter
prising.
Mr.. Plummer says that the condi-
ton of silver has ruined that section
of the State and the people have lost
hope because they have consumed al
most everything they had waiting for
better times.
In Tuscarora only one whistle is
blowing, that of the Navajo, where
few men are employed keeping the
water down in the lower levels. There
are several hundred people in that
town, says Mr.. Plummer, who are
now destitute, and before the winter
is over will have to subsist upon char
ity. They have not money enough to
get away, while to remain means pos
sible starvation before the close of the
winter. Everybody who can is leav-
ing. The situation there for many
men of families is desperate. People
are leaving Elko likewise, and in fact
the outlook in all the eastern counties
is gloomy and discouraging. Reno

Articles of interpretations of the
Salt Lake and Deep Creek Railroad
Company were filed to-day, says the
Salt Lake Journal of the 21st.
The object of the Company is to
build a railroad from Salt Lake City
through Salt Lake and Tooele coun-
ties, Utah Territory, to Muncy Creek,
White Pine county, Nevada, the length
of the road to be 220 miles.
The life of the corporation is to be for
fifty years. The capitalization is
placed at 81, 400, 900, divided into A.
900 shares of par value of 500
each.
The incorporators of the company
are 7. J. Murray, Nicholas Treweek,
M. F. Walker, G. T. Stevenson, w.
G.. Van Horne, w. S. Mccormick, L.
M. Lyman, W. H. Ell. spafford, James
Glendenning, of Salt Lake City, and

The directory of the Company is
named as follows: Z. P. Murray,
Nicholas Treweek, M. F. Walker, G.
T. Stevenson, w. G.. Van Horne, w.
S. Mccormick and F. M. Lyman.
The Journal adds that it is believed
the Union Pacific is behind the move
ment.

Somewhat Encouraging.

The New Eberhart Mining Com
pany, at shareholders meeting held
in London, England, November 3Oth,
adopted resolution to make another
call of six pence per share for the pur-
pose of continuing operations at the
Eberhardt mine. The Chairman, j.
R. Clipperton, stated at the meeting
that altough the most of the ore late
ly encountered was of low grade, rich
samples assaying considerable over
$1O0 per ton, and in instance as high as
ST., 175, had been encountered. In
dications were reported of such an en-
couraging nature as to induce the hope
that rich chamber of ore would be
eventually broken into such as formed
a most important feature of the mine
in the early history of the company,
when ten pound shares sold for fifty
pounds.

A Black Eye for Ferguson.

The Phoebe Record says: Ferguson
district, few months since our FL
Dorado, is experience some hard
knocks. The forfeiture of the April
Fool option some time ago and the
non-resumption of work there, is fol-
lowed by forfeiture of the Maglolia
bond and stoppage of work on that
property also, which has always been
been regarded as the mainstay of the
camp.
While the Magnolia is admitted
generally to be good prospect, man
is not justified in going wild over it.
No particular change has occurred in
its appearance for some time past. The
last and final payment on the property
of S42, 800, would have been due on
the 10Th of next month. The main
shaft on the claim is down about lao
feet, and to properly prosecute the
work deeper would necessitate the
erection of whim or steam hoist.
With supplies of all kinds difficult to
obtain, this would occupy some time,
three weeks, at least, and the bondees
asked for sixty days further time in
which to prospect the claim after the
erection of the hoist. Some of the
locators agreed, while others wanted
a bonus of $50, 900 for the privilege.
In opinion of the bondees, the prop
erty did not warrant this, and on Fri
day last Supt. j. L. Powell, then in
charge, stopped all work, and turned
the mine over to the original locators
With all work stopped on the Reed
tunnel, and no active work going on
in the April Fool claim, the district is
correspondingly dull and quiet, and
will probably remain SO until new
deals can be effected, or new discov-
cries are made there.

A Sad Death.

A dispatch was received here Tues
day morning that Mr.. James Baird
died in Los Angeles on the 23d IN
slant. About six weeks ago Mr..
Baird. accompanied by his wife, left
here for California to seek medical
aid and change of climate for his
ailment. which seems to have been
miners consumption. He tarried in
San Francisco about a month and was
advised by his physician to go south to
the warmer climate of Yuma. But
he only got as far as Los Angeles when
the Journey had to be given up, and
there at the Sisters hospital he died
as above stated. Mr. Baird was an
old resident of the county, honored
and esteemed by all who knew him.
He was the father of family of seven
bows. whose ages range from three
years up to majority, and for whose
maintenance he worked lndustrlously
and earnestly. But the kind husband
and father, the good citizen and true
friend is no more. He laid down by
the wayside and was relieved of the !.,
burden he was SO anxious to carry till
all the little ones were able to care for
themselves. To the bereaved widow
and children the heartfelt sympathy
Of this community goes out In this the
hour of their great affection. Poor
James Baird May your sleep in the
Valley of the Angeles be as peaceful
as the gentle sunshine that falls on
your grave. Farewell +!

Some people do not realize the hard
fate which often frowns on the unfor
tunate wealthy people. Take the case
of Charles Fair for instance. When
his mother died she left him and his
brother, James G.. Fair, Jr., half
million dollars apiece. But he was
not to have the money until he was
thirty years old, while his brother was
to go without his share until he was
thirty-fve. In the meantime, under
the terms of will, the boys were allow
ed but the beggarly stipend of $500
per month. OF course Charles got
another $500 or so from his father,
but what is 81 900 a month to one in
whose veins flow the blue blood of the
FARSI When James G. Jr., died
Charles saw his chance and sued for
the half million which would have gone
to the elder brother, but under the
terms of the will descended to Charles.
And now Judge Coffee has decided
that Charles must wait for the half
million too until he is thirty years old.
He must pull along on 81 900 month,
must Charles, and Fair blood natural
ly cries out in rebellion. AS we have
said, the rich have their hardships.
EVERYBODY ought to feel sorry for poor,
impoverished Charles Fair. stockton

THE STATE LIVE STOCK.
Some CuriOsities OF the Assessment
Rails.
[Carson Appeal.

[CarsOn Appeal
The assessment rolls of all the coun-
ties of the State are now on file in
the State Capitol. Surveyor General
Jones has computed tables for these
rolls, which show the value of the live
stock in Nevada.
There was assessed in the State of
Nevada in 1892, 166, 1874 head of cat
tie, valued at SO, 800, 483 or between
$13 and SD head. In glancing
over these tables one is struck by
many curious things.
For instance Humboldt county turns
in ~, All head of cattle including
cows, beef cattle, and cattle, valued
at 1862, 923, but not a single bull
shows up on the tax rolls of that coun-
ty.
The same state of affairs exist in
Nye, Elko, Esmeralda, Douglas,
Churchill and White Pine.
It is clear therefore that in order
to perpetute the species in those coun-
ties they are obliged to depend wholly
upon the bulls of their neighbors in
Eureka, Lander, Washoe, Ormsby,
Storey and Lyon counties.
To Saratoga, the Holstein bull own
ed by the Appeal editor, is reserved
the proud distinction of being the
highest assessed bull in the State, to
wit 5000.
The Appeal dofs its hat to Assessor
Kersey for this official acknowledge
ment of the value of the Holstein
breed above all others.
Stock cattle are assessed less than
beef cattle and this is probably why
the stock cattle of the State as turned
in to the Assessor number LAG, 885
while the beef cattle make the modest
showing of only 9436. Out of 1861
FOG cattle in the State, the increase,
according to the Assessors rolls, de-
ponds on 70 bulls. Therefore if these
70 bulls should be sold and sent out of
the State to meet the requirements of
California beef famine, the stock
raising industry of the State would re-
ceive severe check.
The Appeal suggests to the stock
raisers of Nevada the Importance of
preserving these animals and having
them highly insured.
They may in time become extinct
like the Buffaloes of the great West.
The horses in the State foot up 49,
861 valued at 81, or, 1868 or little
over 1872 a head.
This does not speak much for Ne
vada horses when they average SO low;
but possibly the high grades of horses
were overlooked when the Assessors
were around.
Mules in Nevada are quiet, only
numbering 1920, valued at $46, 576,
and they don't seem to kick at the
figures.
The sheep industry foots up 319,-
III sheep, valued OF $647, 649, or
about So head.
Charles Wallace, the Assessor of
Eureka county, assessed his own sheep.
IIe had 100 head of choice breed,
and he turned them in at $40 a
head.
