A Great Masters Acquaintance
With instruments.

Scarcely an Instruments the orches-
ira escaped Mozart's attention. A
born violinist, he wrote concerti for
violin and orchestra which, though
without the emotional element of
Beethoven and Spohr, and greatly
priced. To the tenor violin, which
had deemed worthy only OF filling up
tuiti passages, he gave voice and
place of it's own in the orchestra. The
clarinet was raised to great import
ance by him, and forthwith took place
as favorite solo instrument. In
nearly all his scores it received espec-
ial attention; while the fresh, beauti-
full, and exceedingly masterful work,
the quintet IN A major for clarinet
and strings, and the fine clarinet con-
certo, which he composed for Stadler,
have impaired to the instrument an
all-age reputation which can never be
impaired. Then his sparkling genius
spent itself in writing for that fine
reed instrument, the basset horn, the

moro suitable than even the clarinet

Bishop Talbot.

Sunday last was red letter day for
the good people of De Lamar. 1t was
the date for the annual visit OF bishop
Talbot, and event always looked for
ward to with much pleasure In the
morning Rev. Buzzelle delivered an able
and touching discourse, and the Sunday
school in the afternoon was most en-
joyable season, with its lessons; an ad-
dress by the bishop. and music by the
Choral Club and children.
At an early hour in the evening the
spacious school room was crowded, even
to standing room, by people eager to
hear the good bishop, and when that
eloquent divine took his text from the
language of Felix to Paul $50 thy
way, at some more convenient time"
etc., silence fell over the large cougre-
CATION and was unbroken to the end OF
the discourse, it seeming that those
present were held by the spell of su-
perior mind. In forcible and eloquent
language the speaker endeayored to i'm
press upon the minds of his hearers
that there would be no "more convent
ent time" than the present, to turn from
the ways of sin and seek the narrow
path of righteousness. The bishops
liberal views, and the candid, forcible
and beautiful manner in which he ex-
presses them, impress all with the sim
cerity of the speaker.
The hearty and ready manner in
which the responses were uttered dur
ing the lessons, demonstrated that there
were many present who were not stran-
gers in the Mother church.
The Choral Clnb, assisted by the con-
gregation, furnished music that wonld

After the sermon the confirmation
rites were bestowed on Mr.. John Rob-
erts Sr. the benediction was pro-
nounced, and all felt that it was good to
have been there. the only regret being
that the bishops field of labor ia so
large as to preclude more frequent
visits.

Tore Down the Flag.

A Montreal dispatch of the 9th inst.
says:
GA thrilling and exciting scene
took place at the performance OF The
White Squadron. in this city tonight.
Everything went smoothly un-
til the third act, which represents a
congress of navies at Rio Brazil. The
flags of different nations were enthusi-
astically cheered until squad carrying
the stars and stripes appeared when
there were Kisses from the galleries. At
the end of the act player was called
before the curtain and when Hilliard,
representing an American admiral, ap-
peared there were renewed Kisses and
somebody in the gallery threw a missile
at him. This disraceful conduct was
followed by the crowd proceeding to the
fron mt entrance of the theatre where the
different flags were conspicuously dix
played and tearing down the stars and
stripes, which they dragged down the
street. When policeman was asked to
arrest the man who had pulled down
tho flag the constable refused and re-
piled 1T was a pity they had not
pulled them all down.'n
1t will now be in order for the Amer
ican eagle to ruffie up all her feathers
and look very fierce, but when the
British lion wags his tail and growls,
the once proud bird will sheathe her tall
ons and we will be told that it was only
band of gallery gods and street gam
ins not worthy thought. Had such
spirit prevailed in '76 there would have
been no tea party in Boston harbor.
But the greed for gain has swallowed up
that spirit of patriotism, and, could the
heroes of Bennington, the fret battle
field over which the stare and stripes
hoated, speak from their graves they
would, with one accord, curse the day
that they risk ed their all to leave such
a heritage TO race of mercenary poll
defend it, to take down the starry flag
from the dome at Washington, smooth
its folds and gently lay it away as q sa-
cred legacy from brave fathers to degen-
crate sons. American seamen are shot
down in the streets of q foreign port,
without cause, and their lives are paid
for as SO much merchandise. The ma.
tional banner is trailed in the dust and
no great notice will be taken of it. War
is terrible thing, but there is yet a
greater evil-.dry rot-and the Ameri-
can people are fast falling into it.

Dodging the Issue,

The political speakers who are nnder-
taking to enlighten the people, Under
the auspices of the Democratic and Re-
publican parties, are having q hard time
over the silver issue. Both parties made
ridiculous straddle of the whole ques-
ton, only the Democracy is trif1e
more absurd, as usual.
Senator Allison tried bard recently to
tell the farmers of Iowa that the people
demand that the parity of the metals be
retained, and to reconcile this with the
party declarations of the party plat
forms compelled him to make painful
exhibition of the double dealings of the
politicians. Allison knows very we'll
that if it is desirable 10 restore the par
ity of the money metals q free coinage
law is the surest means on earth to ac-
complish it. Then silver would get
among the people and would have =
standing that is now denied it. Free
coinage would remove the suspicion that
now rests upon silver under the pecu-
liar law that compels the coinage Of
some $4,000, 900 year, or, to be more
accurate, the purchase by the govern
ment of that amount of bullion.
If the attempt to restore the parity OF
the metals is safe againstthe course pur-
sued By Europe, there is only one hon.
est way, and that is to make its coinage
as free as gold. The present law and
the clumsy schemes of the Democrats
to restore state bank issues, are simply
dishonest, and are calculated to disgust
both those who favor free silver and
those who regard it as dangerous ex-
pertinent.
When such men as Allison undertake
to talk of great political issues, they
must experience feeling of shame that
they have to be bound by the limita-
tions of deceitful and tricky platform
declarations. The. political treatment Of
the silver issue this year is far and away
from statesmanlike consideration Of it.

Hymenial.

Per announcement in last weeks pa
per, on Sunday evening, September 4th,
1892, Immediately after church service,
Mr.. j, ]. O'Neil and Miss Minnie Lend
burg, all of DeLamar, were united in
mstrimony at the school house. The
room had been tastefully decorated for
the occasion and was crowded with
friends of the happy couple, large
number having come down from our
neig boring town of Silver City to see
the knot tied.
| The bride was attired in cream alba
tros, en- train, trimmed with moire silk,
bridal veil and orange blossom wreath.
The groom wore the conventional black
dress suit and, as they walked up the
aisle to the mellow music of the wedding
march, if, there was an old bachelor
present who did not feel pang of envy
he was built of different material from
the one who presides over the destinies
ofthe NUGGET office.
I Mr.and Mrs. VIM. Freeburn acted as
groomsman and bridesmaid the party
took their positions under the floral
horseshoe and bishop Talbot pronounced
the beautiful and impressive Episcopal
marriage service that made John and
Minnie husband and wife.
After the magic words had been
spoken, the wedding party and most of
the assembled guests, repaired to the
residence of the BRIDES mother where
refreshments were served with lavish
hand. and good wishes for the future
happiness OF the newly welded pair
we're heartfelt and more substantial
tokens of esteem numerous; among the
latter was good, round check from the
employees at the company's office.
Later in the evening sweet strains of
music were heard floating on the silent
air as the DeLamar Choral Club rem
dered that beautiful and appropriate old
song: 'tWhen There's Love at Home"
The serenaders were, of course, invited
in and favored those present with seve-
raj choice selections.
The bride is purely an Idaho produc-
ton, having been born and raised in
Silver City, and is lady of whom Idaho
may well be proud, while the groom is
young man of sterling qualities, who has
been for a long time in the employ of
the DeLamar Co., and that the bark mat
rimonial will glide smoothly on is be-
lieved by all.
The NUGGET was literally remembered
and if our good wishes count for any
thing there will always be Glove at
home.n
