The blooming Of Goldenrod.

Probably a great many people who
travel have failed to notice that the period
Of blooming of the goldenrod does not be-
gin first in the south and move northward,
but apparently in the other direction. from
north to south, remarks the Lewiston
Journal. In some places in northern Yer
mont and New Hampshire goldenrod Of
the common field and railroad track vari-
ETY. is in profuse bloom as early as the 10th
of July. On the Kennebec river traveller
noted that the goldenrod was much moro
golden and less tinged with green than In
Maiden or Cambridge, Mass. And tho
place where the plant is latest of all In
yellowing apparently is Cape Cod, where
the dwarf seaside variety most common
there hardly begins to do itself Justice be-
fore September. 1t is possible that the
northern goldenrod ripens before that far
ther south for the same reason that Indian
corn ripens earlier in Vermont than Il
does in virginia--it has got to ripen ear

WASHINGTON, Aug. 80, 1894.
Hon. Enoch Strothcr, Chairman Repub-
lican State Central Committee of Ne
vada:
DEAR SIR-Having become firmly con-
vinced that the Republican party organi-
cation is unalterably opposed to the free
coinage Of silver at the American ratio of
16 to ], or at all, except with the consent
of foreign governments and Mt ratio to
be dictated by them, have to announce
that can no longer act with that party.
I have not arrived at this conclusion
without extreme regret 1t is always pain
full to sever associations Of long standing,
but fidelity to my own convictions and
my imperative duty, as l see 1t, to the peo-
plo Of Nevada who have long and greatly
honored me, compel mo to this course.
To my constituents need hardly say that
whatever change has occurred in the rcla-
tion between the Republican party and
myself is not n change in me. My opin
ions arc in every respect what they Nave
always been. I hold today with all the
earnestness of the day of my election every
one of the principles for whose prior sup
port in tho senate was for the fourth
time honored by my constituents with q
seat in that body. l am firmly
of the conviction that in the absence of q
monetary system that will admit of the
quantity of money constantly keeping pace
with demand it is vain to expect progress
In this age industrial achievement is by
aggregations of laborers. 1t is the age of
furnaces and factories without number
These depend for vigor, and especially for
unbroken continuity of operation, upon
an institution unknown to former periods
of history-namely, the timo contract.
Upon the degree of accuracy with which
the managers and organizers Of largo es-

AUNT RACHEL'S PALMS,

Jack was pretty good, on the wholei
but now he had passed his seventeenth
birthday, and a little bit Of down on his
upper lip made him feel very lndeperd-
ent. He liked TO show manly spirit by
smoking cigarettes. which Aunt Rachel
abhorred. She was a dear old SOUL and
Jack being left her by his parents, she
had loved and petted him from baby
hood though IN her earnestnesH she often
bored him by lectures and gloomy prophe-
Giles, and every day the words went into
one ear and out OF the other that the
prison or gallows would surely claim him
unless he was better boy"
Aunt Rachel was a great flower lover,
and her bay window was one Of the show
places Of the nelghborhood, being filled
with the choicest plants. One afternoon
IN early autumn Jack sat by this window,
smoking, his hand resting on q small ta-
bic covered with papers aud magazines.

Duck Hunting and Horse Gun
ming.

Messrs. W. n. Ingram and Frank Vim
went on, to Richardson's Savannah Monday
afterneou, and thereby hangs a tale. The.
hitched their horse to q tree on the edge OF
the Savauneh and proceeded TO play havoc
with the ducks. After shooting until II
grew dark they went to where they had
left the horse and buggy, and found them
gone. They Immediately concluded that the
turnout had been stolen, and Frank gave
chase to buggy, which he saw in the dis
lance. His chase was fruitless, however, the
villains making safe escape Notwithstanding
a load or two Of duck shot sent after them.
Giving mp the chase Frank walked to town
and was Just about to procure horse on which
10 pursue and arrest the parties, who had
taken his, but about the time he had con-
pleted his arrangements, Mr. Ingram came
into town with the miss,Eg turnout. When
Frank set out in pursuit of the Imaginary
robbers and came on to town, Mr.. Ingram
proceeded 10 the residence of Col. D. r.
Duncan, which was near by, and when be
arrived found bis horse and vehicle. 1t seems
that negro whom they had taken with them
had carried the buggy up to Col. Doncan's
instead of remaining where they left him.
The most amusing part Of whole affair was
that the parties whom Frank was chasing
and shooting at were Eev. John Kershaw,
and a friend, NJ. Boley, who bad beeo duck
shooting also. They heard the reports of the
gun and Franks yelas, but drove on, never
thinking that they we're being chased as
horse thieves.

The fakir, who swindled the foolish on

Saturday evening, as some Of his rictlms

swindiing, license or 90 license, so open and
outrageous was the swiudle. Une man, the
writer is told, spent the price OF an entire
bale Of cotton ,endeavoring to get few OF the
swipdier,s elusive two, FIVE and ten dollar
bills. Others blew in as much as fifteen to
twen,y dollars Of course all will agree in
condemning the 'tfools'' who threw away
their, moDeg on the faker; but there ls no
excuse for permitting such aswindler to go
usnmoIesied on the public streets. In the
frst place he should not have been licensed,
but if be was granted license under
misapprehension, he should have been ar-
rested AS soon as the nature Of his game was
seen.

Saturday Afternoon.

Mr.. W. D. Lyman was, perhaps, fatally
injured BY bis team running away on Satur-
day afternoon while returning to his home 10
the Ramsey neighborhood. He was driving a
horse and y mule, and when near the place
of the late Capt Jno. S. Richardson the
team became uumanageable and ran away.
He was thrown ont, and severely injured
about the head. When forod he was in an un-
conscious condition and his right eye and tenn
pie bruised as if be had been thrown against
some obstacle or kicked. He was taken to
the house of Mr. Joseph Singleton and Dr..
Mood, who happened to be near by. was
called 10. Mr. Lyman has not recovered con-
sciousness, and it is feared that there is little
hone of his recovery.
