of the Agricultural Society and citi-
zens regarding Nevada's exhibit at
the Midwinter Fair, was held at the
Courthouse to-day, says the Reno
Gazette of last Saturday. The at
tendance was very small, only thirty
citizens, including six Directors, hav-
ing responded to the call.
The Governor stated that this efforts
to persuade the Board of Directors of
the Midwinter Fair to reduce the
charge for space were Intellectual, and
inasmuch as Sam Davis had offered
the State a sufficient part of the ground
that has been conceded him for his
40 paper" scheme, on which to put
up separate building, the Governor
suggested that the offer be accepted,
for he was satisfied the building would
cost no more than the amount &c.

their buildings. After considerable
discussion on the matter the Governor
was requested to wire Mr.. Davis to
hold the space until the committee has
an opportunity to examine it.

dent and Secretary of the Board be
requested to address a circular letter
to the various Boards of County Com
missioners thoughtout the State, ask
ing them if their counties desire MAX
ing separate exhibits The motion
was carried.
G. G. Powning moved that the rail
road company be requested to make a
round-trip rate equal to the present

cts be good for 80 days. Carried.

Board endeavor to secure $40, 900 from
the citizens through subscription, with
the understanding that the amount

effect. Carried.
Governor Colcord, W. E. Sharon,
G. G. Powning and Evan Williams
were appointed as committee to look
after the ground necessary for the

Death of Mrs. McQuitty.

Mrs. McQuitty, notice of whose
death appears in another column, was
perhaps the oldest person living in
White Pine county at the time of her
death-lacking but few months of
being 80 years of years of age. She has
been patient sufferer for the past
two years and awaited the end with
christian patience and fortitude. Last
Wednesday morning the welcome mes
senger came and the old lady passed
peacefully away to that bourne from
which no traveller returns, surround
ed by loving children and grandchil-
dren. The funeral took place Thurs
day afternoon, and was the largest
we ever witnessed in this section.
So, amid the tears of fond relatives
and general regret of friends all that
was mortal of Grandma McQuitty was
laid in it's last resting place. We re-
gret we have not the data at hand 1--WE
may have next weekly to give more ex-
tended notice of the long life and good
deeds of the departed,

Hard Lot Of the Poor.

The Spokane Chronicle says that it
is an absolute necessity that the immi-
grafton of unemployed into Idaho,
especially into Warbler, Wallace and
the surrounding camps shall cease.
Every day from 80 to rs men arrive
in the hope to find work, but are dis
appointed and starvation is staring
them in the face. Crowds of men are
wandering up and down the streets of
Wardner aimlessly, hungry and home
less, without accommodations save
tunnels, old dugouts and prospect
holes for shelter at night. There are
over !, 800 idle men there now, and
even if the mines start up within the
next few week there are more than
two men for each job.

Good Reports from the South.

S. 7. Godbe arrived here Thursday
evening, coming direct from the south
ern portion of the country by the way
of Helene. He says his operations in
the south are on solid paying basis
and the stamps of the mill never cease
their clatter on Keystone, Clementina
and Boss ore. He reports AL En-
wright as making regular shipments of
ore to the Needles from his lead pro-
perty.
Mr.. Godbe stopped over in Helene
long enough to give that section a
thorough examination, and he says
the Monitor and Jim Grow properties
are the largest he ever saw.
He further reports that great excite
ment prevails on the Muddy in conse-
quence of the gold discovery made in
the low hills four miles west of Logan's
ranch. The formation of that section
is sandstone with tale, the gold being
found in the tale, assays ranging up
in the thousands.
Yesterday morning Mr.. Godbe left
for Salt Lake on important business,
and will return here in about week
or ten days. Phoebe Lode.

A correspondent of the Silver State

the following interesting notes

could do for him what ours could scarcely

jolted with it through the busy streets of
London to the grave in thaabbey. There
was nothing, in all that ceremony, of the

Natures surest Ally.

If nature did not struggle against dis
ease, even in weakly constitutions, swift
indeed would be the course of a malady
to its fatal termination. While nature
thus struggles let us, lest worse befall us,
aid her efforts with judicious medicinal
help. Experience must be our guide in
battles with disease, and that lamp to
our feet' indicates Hostetter's Stomach
Bitters as a safe, tried and thorough ally
of nature. If the blood be infected with
bile, if the bowels and stomach are inac-
tive, if the kidneys fail to expel impuri-
ties of which they are the natural outlet,
a course of the Bitters is the surest reli-
ance of the sufferer, one, moreover, that
is sanctioned by professional indorse-
ment and use for nearly half century.
