The Popular "Pefaoa'' Among tne
Roys tn Sew York.
A popular poison is in great vogue at
the Manhattan Club. in New York. under
the guisc Of an oyster cocktail. 1t is
probable that nothing quite so injurious
to the human lining has ever been de-
vised. The foundation is laid hy putting
seven small oysters in a tumhler, adding
afterwards a little salt. three drops Of
fiery Tobasco sauce, the same quantity
Of Mexican chilli pepper sauce. a spoon
full Of lemon juice. and etceteras in the
shape of horse radish and green pepper
sauce. African pepper ketchup. black
pepper, and liberal quantity Of tomato
juice. When all the Ingredients are col
lected together in the tumhler the whole
mixture is stirred about with a spoon,
the oysters being very slightly crushed.
They are then lifted out aud eaten. the
cocktail following as a beverage.

The Collier Case.

Henry Collier, of Silver City, in
dicted for rape, plead not guilty
before Judge Rising in Virginia
City Thursday. By request of his
counsel, Major Huffaker, his trial
was not set, C. E. Mack, District
Attorney, consenting to the arrange
ment. Attorney w. e. F. Deal
has been retained as special coun-
sci for the State in this case. Ma
jor Huffaker's request for delay was
to enable him to bring witnesses
from California.
Collier is charged with commit
ting rape on the feeble-minded and
paralytic daughter of Mr.. Caldwell,
who lives just above Devils Gate.
The girl is only sixteen years old
and is quite an invalid, and the
doctors claimed that death would
be the result of her giving birth to
a child. This event happened,
however, month ago, and the
child and mother are both well.

The Republican Primaries.

Last Saturday the Republicans
of this county held primaries in
the different precincts and elected
the following named delegates to
the State Convention:
Dayton-G. w. Bennett.
Su.ro-P. R. Savage.
Silver City-Tom Mayne.
Mound House-F. A. Teasland
Wabuska-C. H. Gordon.
Mason Valley. B. Gallagher.
Smith Valley
With possibly one exception the
delegation is for Newlands for Con-
gress, and it is quite certain that
five out of the seven delegates are
in favor of endorsing the Silver
electoral ticket. There were con-
tests in only two precincts-Silver
City and Wabuska. In Silver City
the Silver League delegate won by
a vote of over two to one. In Wa
buska J. NJ. Feeney was defeated
by one vote. Only II votes were
cast. In Dayton only. % votes
were cast, and at Mound House
only 4 votes were polled. The vote
in the other precincts was CORE
spondingly small.

Deafness Can,t he Cured

by local applications, as they cannot reach the
diseased portion OF the ear. There is only one
way to cure deafness, and that is by eonstitu-
tional remedies. Deafness is caused by an in
famed condition of the mucous Inning of the
Eustaehian Tube, When this tube gets in
famed you have a rumbling sound or imperfect
hearing, and when ii is entirely closed. Deaf
ness is the result, and unless the Inflammation
can be take out and this tube restored to its
normal condition, hearing will be destroyed
forever; nine cases out of ten are caused by
catarrh, which is nothing but an infiamed con-
dition of the mucous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars for any
case of Deafness lcaused by catarrhl that we
cannot cure by taking Halls Catarrh Cure.

THE NEW RAILROAD.
An Assured Fact that 1t Will be Built
in the Near Future.

The Salt Lake Herald has the
following concerning the San Fran
cisco and Salt Lake railroad:
Papers have been filed incorpo-
rating a railroad from Salt Lake to
San Francisco. The men interest
ed are mostly outsiders, only two
local capitalists being included in
the list of incorporators. There is
plenty of money back of the scheme.
The company expects to be the
first to project the railroad from
Salt Lake to the coast, and will Sc
cure the 100000 appropriation
from California and the 100000
from Nevada. The route will be
from Saltair Beach, thence to Ante
lope Island, from Antelope Island
to Promontory, running on the
west side of Promontory in order
to avoid the range of mountains,
and from Promontory to Mud Lake,
Nevada. The road will run through
Beckwith Pass and Berkeley into
San Francisco.
The surveys have all been COM
pleted, and the profiles, estimates
and levels submitted to the pro-
jectors. The route proposed will
shorten the travel between Salt
Lake and San Francisco ninety-six
miles. The work of grading will
commence early this Fall, and the
road will be completed in two years.
One of the parties interested said
the other day: Our first objective
point is Antelope Island. That
island is rich in resources. On the
west side is a natural sand beach,
situated in an alcove; the depth OF
water on this side of the island is
from three to twenty-five feet. 1t
is only three miles from Saltair,
and with a little improvement can
be made the best resort in Utah
The island also contains the best
slate in America; we propose to
develop building slate enterprise
Our road will open up a great
country, now almost unknown
The right of way has been secured
and all our preliminary work is
completed "

Slaughter-HOusc Fire.

Last Sunday morning, about six
o'clock, J. H. Hepworth discovered
that J. A. Campbells slaughter
house, at the lower end of town,
was on fire. The fire was in the
stock corral, which contained fif-
teen or twenty head Of cattle, and
was principally in the dry manure.
1t is supposed to be case of spon-
taneous combustion. Mr.. Hep
worth ran to Mr.. CampbelPs house
and aroused him, and by hard
work the fire was extinguished be-
fore it reached the buildings. No
damage to speak of.
Lyon County times. [volume] (Silver City, Nev.) 1874-1907, 1892-08-27

Last Monday morning Sam Ell
ston's team got away from him
while he was getting into his wagon
after driving out of the corral, and
running down Main street, turned
at the Occidental hotel and kept on
down towards the depot. When
the horses reached the old Douglass
tailings reservoir they stopped of
their own accord. An Italian who
was coming down from the Ophir
mill caught the team. There was
no damage done except bending the
wagon top trifie.
Tuesday Morning J. H. Rae's
mare ran away when Mr.. Rae got
out of the buggy at his residence
to adjust strap in the harness.
On reaching Pike street the mare
was going at such a rate that she
could not make the turn into the
road, and she ran onto the sidewalk
taking two posts out from under
the porch in front of the Maxwell
building and leaving the buggy a
complete wreck. The mare, with
the shafts hanging to her ran into
RandalPs corral where Omar Stall
lard caught her. She was not in
iured in the least.

The Gopher scalp suit.

The case of Freshour VS.. Lyon
county was tried in the Justice
Court before Justice Craig last
Wednesday. The suit was brought
to recover over one hundred and
seventy dollars claimed by Fresh
our as bounty on gopher scalps,
and for which the Justice of the
Peace of this township had issued
certificate. District Attorney
Apsey and Major Huffaker appear
ed for the county and John Lothrop
for plaintiff. The case was decided
in favor of the county, but has
been appealed to the District Court.
The item going the rounds of the
Nevada papers to the effect that
the Commissioners Of this county
offered bounty on gopher scalps
and then when claims were pre-
scented for the scalps rejected the
bills, is erroneous. The Commits
sioners offered no bounty, but the
last Legislature passed law CIV
ing a bounty of II cents per scalp
for gophers. The Commissioners
refused to allow the bills on the
ground that they did not think the
scalps presented were taken from
animals that the law intended to
call gophers.

Sublime TO Look Upon.

The encampment now at its
height, with its steady tramp of
disciplined troops and symmetrical
marshaling of patriotic soldiers, is
sublime for the free-born to look
upon; but in a few short days the
field will be swept of its tents, the
swords and helmets will be returned
to their quarters, the roar of the
cannon will have lost its reverbera-
tons in the hills beyond, and the
boys in blue will return to civilian
life, full of pride and love for the
grand old fag.-Carson appeal.
The appeal has the love of coun-
try close to its big, warm heart.
Not content with the glory of the
encampment, it rapturously looks
to greater possibilities in the forth
coming "hoss" fair. Hear its
thunder tones "reverberate in the
hills beyond"
We must call together the farm
ers, the merchants, the business
men and the intellect of the country
and let them display their talents,
virtues, and productions to the mass
of human beings moving slowly
but surely around the nucleus of
civilization.

No. The suspenders worn by
girls perform no official duty; they
assume no responsibility; they are
in no way connected with pants. /
ED. TIMEs:-What is a wooden
bathing suit? J. l..
1t is a cross between a coffin and
bell buoy, used by the fastidious
bathers at Ocean Grove. The term
might be applied to the casks used
by lady tourists at Lake Tahoe.
At that place the female bather is
fitted into a cask and rolled into
the lake. 1t keeps the bather dry
and hides her from view.
ED. TIMEs:-What is sham
battle? w. D..
1t is a battle that was gotten up
and fought by the Carson news
papers during encampment week to
draw outside custom to the Carson
hash-houses and beer-joints. You
should have left your best girl at

red-headed girl has been known to
cause the terrible malady. The
symptoms are numerous. You i'm

know of is marriage. Even after
this has been tried the malady is
