The Wadsworth dispatch. [volume] (Wadsworth, Nev.) 1892-1899, 1892-12-24

Mrs. G. II. Lewis has been spending
several days in Reno and attending the
revival meetings OF the First Baptist
Church in that place. She reports a
number Of conversions and baptisims.
Fritz Sperlich will soon be leaving
Wadsworth for his old home at Carlin.
During his stay here he has made many
warm friends, and his departure causes
universal regret. His sunny disposition
and pleasant manner did it.
Mrs. j. w. Smith came in from Hot
Springs Wednesday and spent the day
very proitably. She says everything il
progressing nicely at that winter resort
and hints that very shortly the number
OF single people will be decreased by
several.
c. II. Lewis has harvested a crop of
the best ice we have seen in Wadsworth
for some years. 1t is clear, solid and
eight inches in thickness. Like
everything else in this world, ice to be
good, needs attention. T. q. Herman
is also putting in a supply.
A bill has been introduced into the
House OF Representatives to make the
pansy the national floral emblem. The
sentiment expressed in connection with
the emblem is to be Justice, liberty,
uni"n, culture and peace" the last three
words TO constitute the motto.
Mr.. and Mrs. Clippinger returned yes
terday from a visit to Fresno, also at
Riverside, visiting our old-time friends,
Mr.. and Mrs. Curtis. The latter would
be delighted to visit Wadsworth, only
Mrs. Curtis writes they grow oranges in
their country and not railroad passes.
Noting the suggestion Of the DIsPATcH
to give the good ladies' a lift when
they call upon you for money for
the Christmas tree, the Advocate says:
"We want it distinctly understood that
we don't propose to allow our wife to
collect for the Christmas tree on any
such conditions.
Upon learning of the death of Frank
Hampton's pug dog, little May Weaver
and some of her classmates wanted to
bury him with pomp, and to make the
ceremony complete, spent several hours
in practicing "Ter-ra-ra- boom-de-ay" to
sing at the grave. They were disappointed
when they found the carcass had been
thrown into a prospect hole before they
could carry out their plans.
Captain Carl Wallstab has survived
the dangers incident to an ocean voy-
age, Al his presence now shows. He
came back with a pleasant little woman
he calls frau. The DISPATCH extends its
congratulations to the Captain, and
wishes the happy couple an abundance
of everything good in life. We are
pleased to note that they are already
comfortably settled in their new home.

They arrived at midnight and were for
tunate enough to make connection with
No. 4, which was late, as they were on
their way to Sacramento, whittier they
were called by the death of Mr.. Kent's
t~en-year-old daughter. The little one
has been suffering with dropsy for the
past two years. The family have oul
sympathy in their affiiction.
Tom. Donelin Jr. was a very sick
little boy last Wednesday. Trampinp
around with wet boots and stockings
did the work. The youngsters require
watching during these days of slush anC
extreme cold weather. Tom has a sore
throat which bothers him some. Teasie
Donelin seems to have suffered a relapse
and the doctor has not pronounced the
nature of her sickness. We hope the
children will both be well for New Years
