CHILL,

Wadsworth has always been an at
tractive place. Its citizens go away
and COME back better satisfied to stay.
In going they look for that which is
better and find it not, so they return.
Many of us are here to stay we have
had experience in trying the other
thing. Now that we are here to stay
let us make Wadsworih's welfare our
aim. If you have personal dislikes
against any man whose abilities you
reconize and whose powers you know
will be expended for Wadsworth's good,
smother those feelings and vote for
the good of your home. We are sur
rounded by thousands of acres of fine
land. We know that all those lands
require to make them bud and blossom
and bring forth fruit, is water.
There is in no hamlet, village, town
or city, in Nevada to-day, u man
better informed upon the storage of
water and the profits of irrigation,
than Francis G. Newlands. He will
be elected to Congress and he will
need the aid of Senator Stewart, hence
we say THAT if you have any personal
dislikes against any member on the
Legislative ticket, who is for Senator
Stewart, smother those dislikes and
vote for your own interests as against
prejudice. Francis G. Newlands is a
young man, he has brilliant attain
mentr, he has a knowledge of the law,
he is an orator, he has youth, he has
wealth, he has energy, he has associ-
ations with influential men, he will
expend them all to make a record for
himself and Nevada, and WELD for
Nevada the immense power these for.
ces give him. There shall be a bright
day for Nevada, and a new dawn for
Wadsworth and Churchill county
when he gets ready for action to re-
claim our now desert lands.
Vote for Nevada, vote for Waehoe,
vote for Wadsworth and vote for your
self by putting II cross opposite the
name of Francis G. Newlands. He IL
the only wealthy man who desires po-
litical preferment at Nevada's hands,
who spends his wealth to promote Ne
vada's interests and yours and ours.
Wadsworth has "A bright future.

WILL BE ELECTED.

Everything indicates to the r~e.elec-
ton of Hon. VIM. NJ. Stewart to the
United States Senate. At least ninety
five per cent. of the Democrats of the
State are favoring his election, and
there has not been n Legislative ticket
OF that party nominated which is not
pledged to his support. 1t is safe to
assert, moreover, that two thirds of
those who heretofore acted with the
Republican party in Nevada, including
n large proportion of those who will
vote for Harrison at the November e.
lection, recognize the disastrous effect
which his defeat, at the present criti-
cal period, would have on the State at
large and Wadsworth in particular.
We should look out for Wadsworth,
first, last, and all the time because in
so doing We will be looking after our
personal interests. There is no man
i'll Wadsworth to-day but would Ike to
see us on the high tide Of advance
ment and progress there is no man in
Wadsworth to-day, be he parent or
not, but would like TO see better school
facilities here; there is no MAI in
Wadsworth to-day but would like to
see our social conditions improved !;
there is no mar in Wadsworth to-day
but would be glad to see Wadsworth
many times its present size; there is
no mar in Wadsworth to day but who
prefers life to death there is no man
in Wadsworth to-day who should
stand III the way Of lettering his own
circumstances; there is no man in
Wadsworth to-day who should let pref
udice down his common sense; there
is no man in Wadsworth to-day who
wants these things who II afford to
vote for anybody who is not pledged to
vote for VIM. NJ. Stewart for United
States senator.

OLD RESIDENT GONE.
Amos Fawcett Dies Full of Years and
Honor.
sive Newspaper-An Engine Goes
Over a Trestle.

Amos Fawcett, after an illness of only
week from pleuro pneumonia, died at
his home south of town at noon Sunday.
The deceased was 81 years of age, and was
all his life resident of this neighbor-
hood, having been born on the farm ad-
joining his own. He was man of in
dustry and tireless energy. Starting with
nothing but the endowment of nature,
he became owner of the large and fertile
farm on which he lived, and was a re-
spected, solid and honored citizen. He
was early in life identified with the
Methodist Church, and was one of the
pillars of the congregation here, being
constant in attendance at all meetings,
and generous in giving of his means and
time to all church enterprises, His neigh
bors speak of him as kindly and friendly,
and all who had dealings with him knew
him TO be of the strictest upright
ness and integrity. His last illness was
of painful character, throwing the suf-
fer often into agonies. The last days,
however, were full of mental peace, and
quiet trust in the Christians hope, and
so he passed into the unknown future.
By Mr.. Fawcett's death wife and five
children are bereft. The daughters are
Mrs. Philip Ault and Mrs. J. F. Young;
the sons, Zachariah, Harry and John
Fawcett. Funeral services were held
Tuesday from his late residence, and
were conducted by DR.. Webb. Inter
ment in the Union Cemetery.

All Enioved It.

An unusually large audience faced the
Fisk Jubilee Singers at the Hall Friday
night, and spent two hours of enthusias-
tic enjoymant 1t is the boast of these
musicians that they sing to the heart, and
they do. Most of us are laymen in
music We do not care so much to hear
new songs as old ones well sung. Old
melodies that have soothed generations
of hearts, and have accumulated around
themselves golden treasures of sweet as
sociation. are the melodies for us They
seem to touch chords that vibrate away
back into misty remembrance, and to
lead into mysterious chambers of the
soul even beyond tangible recollection
They speak to US of things which we
shave never seen and will never see" with
the gross eyes of these muddy vestures
of decay" it is not ther efore to be Won
dered at that such sweet old songs as the
Suwanee River, Old Kentucky Home, The
Old Oaken Bucket; Swing Low, Sweet
Chariot; Old Virginia, Old Black Joe,
aud others should appeal to us as no
others do. They are familiar friends,
and we have to do nothing bat enjoy
their exquisite suggestions.
The audience went away p.aising the
singers with one accord, and thanking
them for several moments of pure enjoy
ment and exaltation.

Christmas at the Churches.

Christmas was observed with appropri
ate exercises at the three churches at this
place Saturday. The United Presbyteri-
an congregation came together Saturday
morning, with good attendance. Reel
tations and songs bearing on the season
were listened to, and the young folks of

ages of candy. The Presbyterian exer-
cises consisted of recitations and songs
and treat for the children of neat box
es of candy and nuts. Santa Claus ap-
peared in costume and distributed tie
sweetmeats. The Methodist people eel,
ebrated in the Court House Hall, to be
rid of the attendant dirt and litter for
Sunday at the church. The literary ex
ercises were excellent, the tableaux being
especially enjoyed by the large audience
Santa Claus appeared in furs and white
beard to the delight of the children.

What We Claim.

We do not claim to know everything
in relation to medicine or diseases or to
be able to cure every case; but we do
claim that large, extensive and increas-
ing practice, with unparalleled success
to sustain it. are the best proofs of Il
doctors skill.
Experience is worth everything Knowl-
edge gainedby consulting with, critically
examining and successfully treating
thousands of persons of every age, sex,
profession and occupation, affected with
svety presentable form aud stage of dis
ease, enable us to assure those suffering
with ike maladies that we have succeed
ed in restoring to health large ma
jority of cases treated, even after other
skilled and energetic physicians have
failed to effect any permanent change for
the better.

A Generous Plan.

The Pittsburgh Times proposes to take a
train load of fifty teachers to the Worlds
Fair next summer. The Times will fur
nish them with special vestibule train
of five Pullman sleepers, dining car
and baggage car, giving them the com
fort of a section apiece. 1t will take
them to Chicago and provide for them
there for ten days at one of the best no
tells in the city. For those ten days the
city of Chicago and the Worlds Fair shall
be as absolutely fee to them as if they
owned them both. Twenty teachers will
be selected from the public schools OF
Pittsburgh, ten from Allegheny and
twenty from points in western Pennsyl-
vania, eastern Ohio, Maryland, and
West Virginia, and will be chosen by the
votes voted on coupons printed daily in
the Times until June 30th.

Over q Trestle.

G., L. & w. engine No. IS, drawing
eight cars, went over high trestle near
the Etna mill at Bridgeport, on Tues
day at noon. The tlestle is twenty or
twenty-five feet high, and when the en-
CINE struck the frog of a switch leading
to the Etna mill, it leaped the track, and
carrying four cars with it dropped to the
river bank. In its descent the engine
rolled over several times and was broken
and mashed iuto complete wreck.
About one hundred feet of the trestle
went down, too. The engineer, fireman
and conductor all jumped, the last two
escaping serious injury, but the engineer
was scalded and otherwise injured so
that he may die. 1t will take week to
repair the tcestle, and the loss amounts
to several thousand dollars.

Old Time Winters.

An old citizen of Wheeling speaks thus
Interestingly to Register reporter:
This puts me in mind of an oldtime
winter" said the venerable ]. X. Bots
ford yesterday. How we used to catch
the cold weather / have seen the river
frozen over solidly with ice twelve
inches thick several times in one winter,
aud teams would cross down at Ben
wood, at West Wheeling and at the
wharf, and magnificent ice would be cut.
l can see the big teams which used
to run on the pike coming across the ISL
and driving over the ice. Such teams
as those driven by Colonel Hoover, of
Morristown. He had magnificent out
tit of six big horses and wagon which
would hold seventy and eighty hundred
pounds of freight. l remember one of
those teams broke through once just as
the leaders reached the shore on this side
of the river, and there was great trouble
in getting the wagon out. Those were
winters which meant something in the
way of ice and cold.
