A Stricken Town.

The typhoid malaria epidemic still
continues at Lovelock and the list of
deaths from the disease is enlarged
almost daily. II is reported that
there are now sixteen cases of the
fever in the town, the hopes for re-
covery IN several oil them being very
slender. At Lovelock the domestic
water supply is secured entirely from
wells, and to the seepa9e from stag-
nant sloughs is ascribed the cause of
the epidemic. State.

COUNTY OFFICIAL PAPER.
Men Of Mark In the Senate.


A correspondent writing about the
orators in the United States Senate
says that the only one Of the old
school left is Ddniel of Virginia, who
affects the style of Henry Clay, ar
ranging his rhetorical climaxes aud
developing exordiums and deliberately
balanced sentences. German, Gray
aud White on the Democratic side are
listened to with the most attention,
German talking common sense in O
we'll modulated voice, Gray being i'm
pressive because Of his profound legal
knowledge, and White because Of his
good voice, fine presence, and peril
nent figure Of speech. On the Re
publican side OF the Chamber VOL
colt of Colorado is always sure Of an
audience, his breezy, unconventional
remarks aud brilliant and cutting wit
being u novelty in the Senate. Sher-
man is effective, but largely because
of his mentality, for he has curious
impeachment in his speech, which ia
remotely suggestive of II lisp and he
stumbles over his sentences some
times. Senator Hoar's weakness of
voice perhaps prevents him from be-
ing the most redoutabie speaker in
the Senate, for his remarks are always
to the point aud expressed i'll English
that it IS delight to listen to.
Harris of Tennessee and Pasco Of
Florida both make occasional slips in
grammar.

He Wanted a Sudden Death.

At a brilliant dinner party at the
house of the secretary of state in 1879,
the talk turned upon Che sensation Of
death. Il do not know" said Mr.. Fish,
in the hush that involuntarily followed
the introduction of such a serious SUBJ
ject, "why we should pray against sud-
den death; it seems to me very desir-
able way of shufling off this mortal coil.
I think the compilers of our book of
Common Prayer must have intended vio-
lent death in their petition-at least that
is the way l read it-and every Sunday
at church, when that part Of the litany
is read, l make that distinction in my
mind.
''It seems to me-" he continued, look
ing abstractedly before him, with his
thoughts evidently far away from the
gay scene by which he was surrounded,
''to die suddenly, without the painful
struggles of disease, is what l would
rather pray for" When one day one OF
the guests of that occasion picked up a
morning paper and read in large type,
Suddenly, at his home at Garrisons-on-
the-Hudson, Hamilton Fish" the long
forgotten conversation came wildly TO
mind.-New York Tribune,

REFLECTION AND PRESGGE.

REFLECTION.
You have tongue of honey and gall;
You can trip up truth with the Geftest fall
Your wit is as bright as your heart is true
And how does that sentence read to you?
You have seen my soul in the clearest light,
And would not read its riddle Alright.
The heart you think Of, the mind you see,
Are but your trappngs transferred TO me.
PRESAGE.
You bird Of ocean, DER the tossing wave
You M prey seeking-I am not your prey;
Though can ne'er forget the gift you gave,
Until all time dissolves in the last day.
Pause in your flight. Look on tLis wretch o!
error,
Who fearless fears your presage. Is 1t well
Your brilliant wings should bring flash OF
terror
To one whose vows and hopes you ne er can
tell?
Wing on your flight, work out your destined
story,
Work to the prize that waits you at the end.
And when your wings shall burn with heavens
glory
Think not of me-you cannot make or mend.
Watching your flight, still shall wait in won-
der
To see you dauntless in the lightning's blaze,
And while hear and tremble at the thunder
May know you restful after restless days.
