We are informed there was a candi-
date for nomination for sheriff working
the town this week, but he never
showed bis good looking face at the
NUGGET Office. This will never do,
Alex. You cannot win that way. The
NUGGET is not much stuck on politics,
not liking the Republican party be-
cause 30 many of its leaders are gold
bugs; nor the Democratic party be-
cause it is daily showing its incapacity,
DOW that it is in power; nor the Populist
party, because it adopts all the political
vagaries extant; but while, fockinR all
by itself, the NUGGET wont hesitate to
have its powerful voice heard never
tbeless, and it controls one vote.

Both the Democratic and Republican
state conventions have their dates fixed
rather earlier than usual this year, and
it is time the county executive COM
mittees were arranging meetings to fix
the dates for holding county conven-
tons. We are longing to see the
numerous candidates begin to rustic for
delegates. These are the kind of fights
in which we love to sit on the fence
and see the rivals lock horns and paw
dirt. When they begin to sling mud
we prefer locking on from safe dis
lance. Put your announcement cards
in the NUGGET, gentlemen.

Sudden Death Of E. B. Geig o..

! Last Saturday night E. E. Gieger re-
| tired At late hour apparently in his
usual health. In the early morning he
WAS found to be unconcious and DR..
Plumer being hastily called, upon ex-
aiming his condition announced that
the probable cause was the rupture of q
blood vessel in the brain. During the
day two physicians were called down
from Silver City for consultation who
agreed with DR.. Plumer in bis dag
nosis. and all three physicians pro-
nounoed his condition hopeless. He
fingered in the same unconcious con-
dition until about nine O'Clock Sunday
night and expired. From the tins his
condition was discovered there was no
indication of moments consciousness,
and he died without any indications of
having suffered.
The telephone line bsing down,

inform the friends OF the deceased, in
Muneic. Ind, and preparations were
made by the Odd Fellows, to which

came from his friends in Ind, request
ing that his remains be embalmed and
shipped to Muncie, and ]. w. Miller,
his partner, started with the renains to
Nampa on Monday night. But upon
reaching Nampa his friends concluded
to have him buried there.
The Odd Fellows and Rsbekas of
Nampa took charge OF the remains and
buried them with the honors of the
orders, the citizens kindly turning out
in goodly numbers. The coffin was
covered with flowers and as
much respect shown az If he had been
4 citizen of the town instead Of being
stranger to them.

ENERGETIC WAITING.
It IL One of the Essential Elements In a
Successful Career.

Successful Career.
One of the most successful men in the
country. in reply to the question how
he succeeded in doing so many difficult
things. said: Il can wait His capacity
for abiding his time was a great ele-
ment Of success in the large and diff
cult enterprise which he undertook.
and which he carried through. Small
things can be done in a hurry: large
things require time: and the largest
things require often a great deal of
time. 1t is only the man of long
thought and unwearied patience who
can secure them. Waiting is a great
element in a life that succeeds on a
large scale: but it is not waiting with
ones hands folded: it Is waiting with
energy and intelligence. The man who
waits in this sense is always at work to
secure the end ne has in view. His en-
ergy Is untiring, but his intelligence
keeps his method normal and adapted
to the purpose. II saves him from the
folly of trying to secure by single out
put of energy something which must
be fostered by growth. and which.
therefore. requires time. Most things
come TO those who wait energetically
and intelligently; who keep steadily in
mind the end they wish TO attain: who
are not hurried. discouraged or DETECTED
from their purpose; who keep quietly
on year after year. steadily nearing the
goal. and finally touching it as the cul-
mination of flow of energy which has
often seemed to be suspended and some
times to be diverted but which has
never for an instant deviated from the
thing which it sought.-Outlook.

Matrimonial Separations in Egypt.

The Hveliest divorce centers of the
west have to take second place when
compared with matrimonial separa-
tons in Egypt. according to the ac-
counts of the American consul to the
land of the Nile. He tells of an alter
cation that took place between one of
his most trusted servants and yelled
lady. his wife. which squabble resulted
in divorce in less than five minutes.
The scene opened with reproaches
ematating from the woman Take
care, warned the man. Il put YOU
from me- Nothing daunted the vira 90
continued until the exaSperated man
again repeated: Il put You from me-
Still the torrent Of abuse flowed inces-
sanity. Worried beyond endurance the
servant entered the house and secured
thirty shillings out of his years salary
of ten pounds, and returning to the
woman said: Here is your dowrv:
now for the third and last time l re-
peat: Il put You from me At these
words the woman went her way. and
the astonished American learned that
he had witnessed divorce proceedings:
for in Egypt the assertion. Il put you
from me- made three times TO a wife
by her husband constitutes a solemn
divorce without alimonv. and once the
words are said the woman has no right
TO any further support from the man

MAKING a WINEGCASS.
Process Typical of the Blowers Whole


The making of an ordinary wine
glass is typical of most of the processes
employed in glaSs-blowing. We start
with the bulb at the end Of the iron
tube or blowingiron- The bulb is
blown 80 as to be of the same diameter
as the bowl Of the future wineglass,
but somewhat longer. 4 small knob
of solid glass is gathered, and dropped
upon the end of the bulb. The knob is
quickly pulled out to form the future
leg BY means of q tool closely resem-
bling pair of sugar-tongs. A smaller
bulb, blown by an assistant, is attached
to the end Of the leg. and severed
from the assistants blowing-iron. The
small bulb or cup-for there is an aper-
ture where it has been severed-is now
heated: the point of tool is inserted
in the aperture. and the cup is thrown
out into a fat disk the future FOOT.
The bulb. which is to become the bowl
of the wineglass, is guillotined from
the blowing-iron BY the application of
cold steel. The wineglass is complete,
but the edge of the bowl is rough and
uneven 1t is picked mp by the foot by
spring clip attached to an iron rod.
and the edge is reheated- The COM
bined action of scissors and heat gives
smooth edge to the bowl. and the
wineglass is finished. but not ready for
use All glassware requires to be
slowly cooled or ''annealed. Work.

TO DETECT EARTHQUAKES.
An Instrument for Recording shocks at
Distance.

An Instrument for Recording Shocks at q
Distance.
In birmingham, England, they have
a very cleverly-constructed apparatus
for detecting earthquakes. OF all
things in the world. you no doubt be-
lieve, an earthquake might be most
easily detected without the aid of anv
instrument. But this one at Birming-
ham is not for those near enough to
you to shake the very building about
you, but for indicating those at any dis
tance away.
Thus when all Greece was shaken the
other day, destroying Thebes, as you
know, the shock travelled at the rate of
one hundred and eleven miles min
ute, and was detected in birmingham
fourteen minutes after Thebes was
stricken. BY the time the vibrations
reached England they were naturally
so slight that no one felt them. al
though they continued for nearly half
an hour.
The apparatus which has proved all
this consists of a pendulum which is so
connected with a rotating mirror that
q III VI tAlt REOuDu On bat dp-
paratus stands appears magnified three
thousand times. 1t is easy to see.
therefore. how a motion too slight to
be discovered by people not thinking
of it could be distinctly indicated by
this.
Had other instances of shocks travel
ing at great rapidity not been known.
this testimony from the birmingham
instrument might not be accepted. But
scientific records are full of verified
instances One of these given in an
account from which these facts are
taken cites the California earthquake
of February .. Is92 which was felt at
the Arequippa observatory. in Peru,
distance of four thousand five hundred
miles. two hours and thirty minutes
later. The rate travelled by those
shocks was. then twenty-eight and one
half miles a minutr-\. Y. World.

T1dyer Independent: o., last Tues
day after some delay, the oil men shot
the Nigh well with thirteen quarts of
nitro-glycerine. When the "go-deviW
exploded the gun caps, little oil was
thrown up about twenty feet Soon
after the oil began to flow out the full
size of the six-inch casing. The flow
continued to increase both in volume
and force, till the column Of oil reach
ed fifteen or twenty feet above the top
of the derrick. Then it gradually
subsidized, till but few feet high when
it again suddenly shot above the der
rick. After ten or fifteen minutes of
alienation in the rise and fall Of the
column Of water, gas, am oil, it had
blown out the contents of The $50 foot
hole, when gas, with roar, drove
the oil out in a spray. rs soon as
possible the well was anchored and a
pipe fittedso that the oil now flows in
to the tank It is reported
that the Nigh well has flowed over a
hundred barrels of oil since it was
shot Tuesday evening. From the way
the oil gushed out after the we'll was
shot we have no reason to doubt this
report.
