NEYADA'S ENTERPRISE.

Under this head the San Francisc,
Chronicle says:
Until the Chronicle published il.
special article few days ago it wa,
hardly known on the Pacific slope
that the State of Nevada was repre-
sented at all at the Worlds Column
ban Exposition, and yet the fact is.
as was shown by the article in CUES
ton, that our neighbor has done
more for itself than many larger and
more pretentious States have done
for themselves.
Owing to some legislative hitch or
miscue there was no appropriation
made for a State exhibit from Ne
vada, and in consequence no rsssrva-
tlen OF space in the main buildings
OF the exposition; but, nothing
daunted by this mischancs, certain
entsrprising and ide-awaks citizens
of Nevada contributed the money
necessary to an exhibit, and by dint
OF coa1ing and pleading induced cer>
tam States to divide exhibit space
with them and give the battle-born
State chance. The consequence
was that while Nevada had no
special department she sent to the
Worlds Fair an exhibit which was
not alone remarkable, but UNIQUE.
showing that the popular idea of the
State-that of barren rocks and sage
brush-was a fallacy.
Those citizens of the State of Me-
vada who came to the rescue in the
hour of extremity deserve to be
crowned with the laurel wreath
awarded for civic vaIor and virtu.s.
and Nevada should see that they re-
celve 1t, even though it may be ne
essary to import the laurel. 1t de
wolves upon Nevada to administer
the coup de grace to the old time
tradition of the Great American
Desert, and we can think of no
better entry for the wedge than the
display of the State at the Worlds
Fair, due though it may be not to
the State in its corporate capacity,
but to the energy and activity of GER
tain OF its citizens. who have faith in

mitted suicide at her home in Bolton,
Tex, on Tuesday, the 4th instant, left
the following intensely sad and pa
thetic letter, which tells only too
surely its own story of loyal heart
betrayed and a young life forever
blighted by mans wanton cruelty
and base deceit:
"Only a broken heart. Mr.. -: |
think you have acted real mean, but
now you are married and hope you
will always be happy, but ! don't see
how you can be, knowing the way in
which you have treated me. You
told me to 60 by the store and | went
and Mr.. --- told me you were mar
ried. | hope you will always be true
to your wife, but ] seriously doubt it.
| guess her heart will ache many
times and she will wish she was single
again. You said you had something
at the store for me, but you did not.
] hope when you read this ] will be
far from all earthly troubles and at
the resurrection morn you will have
to face mamma In everything and she
will point the finger of scorn at you
Well, / have said enough, so good
bye. SUSIE"
Just why the local press should have
withheld the name Of the man, whose
evident iaithlessness and base deser
ton of young, innocent and trusting
girl renders him an object Of con
tempt to every honest heart, passes
our understanding. True it is that

risdictlon before which he may be
tried here, but in the great hereafter
there sits an awful tribunal before
which he must stand doubly accused,
where he must suffer arraignment for
double murder, in which he stands
branded as a fell destroyer, both of
body and soul. Let us hope that his
victim may not, impelled by sense of
the great wrong he has wrought her,
appear to point at him the unerning

divine mercy be denied him, even in

THE GLORIOUS FOURTH.

One of the most pleasing and Who'll
ly enjoyable events which marked the
flight of the great National holiday,
was that which transpircd at Era, in
Miller county, Ark, on Tuesday the
4th instant. On this pleasing occasion
were assembled the sturdy yoemanry
of that Gibralter of Democracy, known
as the Bright Star settlement, in Sui
phur Township. An addition to the
ranks of these honest sovereigns was
had from Texarkana, in the persons
of Hons. w. f. Kirby, Miller county's
excellent representative, and Circuit
Clerk, j. V. Scott. Prosecuting at
torney J. M. Carter was also invited
to be present ana address the milti-
tude, but owing to pressing business
engagements was unable to attend.
The day was passed in a continuous
round of pleasure, feasts, mental and
material were amply provided and
literally partaken Of Hon. w. II.
Kirby, as orator Of the day, contributed
largely to the intellectual enjoyment
of the occasion. His address was re-
plete with patriotic fire and oratorical
eloquence, soaring aloft like the Eagle,
ia its flight against the sun and again
descending to the level plain Of calm
reason and mature delberation.
Fully seven hundred people were
present and participated in the days
festivities, which passed off happily,
without a single untoward incident TO
mar the serenity Of this most delight
full occasion.

Cures Others

Will cure You, is a true statement of the
action Of AYERS Sarsaparilla, when
taken for diseases originating in impure
blood but, while this assertion is true of
AYERS Sarsaparilla, as thousands can
attest, it cannot be truthfully applied to
other preparations, which unprincipled
dealers will recommend, and try to i'm
pose upon you, as 'just as good as
Ayers" Take Ayers Sarsaparilla and
Ayers only, if you need blood-purifer
and would be benefited permanently.
This medicine, for nearly fifty years,
has enjoyed a reputation, and made
record for cures, that has never been
equaled by other preparations. AYERS
Sarsaparilla eradicates the taint of he
reditary scrofula and other blood dis
eases from the system, and it has, deser-
vedly, the confidence of the people.
