Our Witnesses.

In q recent divorce Ease in San Fran
cisco a number Of witnesses went on
the stand and swore that they had
been criminally intimate with a wo-
man In the case. They afterwards
admitted that their testimony was all
false. These miserable creatures have
not yet been tried for perjury and are
still walking the streets.
1t is a rule Of law in many sections
OF the country that the oath Of a wo-
man Of VIGOROUSLY lewd character
must be supported by corroborative
evidence before il can be accepted in
court.
There ought to be a rule Of law that
the oath Of any man who will swear
away a woman's character should not
be received. Added to this should be
q penalty Of ten years in the peniten-
tiary for any such miserable cur Of a
witness. AS a rule such witnesses lie
for money and they are a good deal
lower in the social scale than prosti-
tutes upon whose testimony the law
looks with such suspicion. Carson

Voting was carried on in a some
what irregular fashion In Washoe
county. There were names on the
register OF Buffalo or Salt Marsh pre-
cinct illegally registered, and the
Board refused to canvass the vote.
The Wadsworth box was delivered to
the Board with no seals whatever on
the keyhole, and the box was unlocked,
but the cover was nailed down with
four nails. The box was opened and
the contents inspected. 1t was found
that the copy Of the register showed
that the names Of fourteen persons
had been transferred contrary to the
registry laws.
From the Third Ward returns of
Reno it was found that the box was
unsealed and that the envelopes that
contained the spoiled ballots was left
open, also that cancelled ballots were
not in the envelope when returned.

The Fret Thanksgiving.

We have every reason for believing
that our foreiathers celebrated their
first Thanksgiving day with Heavens
blue dome for a roof and the brown
earth for q floor. This was In the Fall
of 1921. "Our harvests being gotten
in" says the record Of Edwin Wins
low, "our Governor sent four men
fowling, so that we might, after a spe-
cial manner, rejoice together. They
four in one day killed as much fowl as,
with a little help beside, served the
company nearly a week. At which
time, among other recreations, we ex'
ercised our arms. many OF the Indians
coming among us, among the rest their
greatest King. Massasoyt, with some
ninety men, who for three days we en-
tertained and feasted."

Quinn and Mug and also Pat Hani-
fan for their attempt to outrage three
squaws some time ago. The examin-
alton will come of just as soon as the
squaw, who was injured so badly, is
able to attend court. This may be sew
eral days ahead yet. One of the
squaws upon whom the assault was
attempted is away, but a be located.
Her absence at present is not material,
however, as her evidence can be dis
pensed with at the examination. The
toughs will be held on other evil
dence. At their trial she will be forth
coming II her evidence is required.
The three worthless are safely secured
in Jail, and their investigation will

The Nampa, Idaho, Leader says:
Reports from the 0wyhee opal fields
are anything but encouraging. Not q
man left in camp, and the visitor may
enter mines and carry away what he
finds. What a pity it is indeed that
these stones cannot be marketed, for 1t
is an u~ndisputed fact that they surpass
anything in the world. The famous
Shirley mine, from which the opals
that took first prize at the Worlds
Fair we're taken, has also been desert
ed, and although the mountain con-
tains gems enough to supply the world
and of the rarest beauty, TOBIAS
not as much as a "keep out" notice
posted up to warn off the inquisitive
prospector. Only a short year ago
there we're probably q hundred men in
camp, and many of them possessed q
can full Of these beautiful stones that
would have dazzled the eyes Of Q ma
tive from the great opal fields Of Gen.
trail America, and which had q COM
mercial value Of from So to $35 per
karat, yet no buyers could be found,
and now these men are working rock
ers or Snake river, barely making q
living. II is to be hoped that there
will yet be a demand for 0wyhee opals
and the fondest hopes Of those who
own the claims may be fully realized.

Tho Pine mt Mines.

The Genoa Courier says: Last week
Tour men working on the Pine Nut
mining claim owned by Messrs. Mar
tin, Mccormick and Tillman. washed
out $50 a day. Seven dollars and fifty
cents a day to the man is pretty good
wages, where no expensive machinery
is used, or required, and there is every
reason TO believe that many other
claims in that district can be made to
pay as well, or better. Why more Of
them are not worked is a deep and inn
pregnable mystery.
There is lots Of rich mining ground
in Pine Nut, and a large portion Of it
is claimed, but not one claim in one
hundred is being worked. In many
instances men who " claims have
not the can to work them and are
themselves engaged in other lines Of
business.
There is q chance here for some en-
terprising mar with a small amount Of
capital to make a big strike, by taking
some Of these claims and working them
on shares. We know Of several prom
Using claims that could be handled in
this manner. Men who had a few
hundred dollars and the courage and
dare. made fortunes in this way in the
early days. The times and men have
changed, but the hills have not, and
1t is probable that like methods would
to-day produce results.

Making Postage stamps.

Every part Of postage stamp max
ing is done by hand. The designs are
engraved on steel-200 stamps on a
single plate. These plates are linked
by two men. and then are printed by
a girl and a man on alarge hand press.
They are dried as fast as printed, and
then gummed with starch paste made
from potatoes. This paste is dried by
placing the sheet in a steam tanning
machine, and then the stamps are
subjected to q pressure of 200 tons in
a hydraulic press. Next the sheets
are cut so that each contains 100
stamps, after which the paper between
the stamps is perforated, and, after
being pressed. the sheets are taken
away. II a single stamp is injured
the whole sheet is burned.

A story is floating about town on
DR.. Southworth which may be true or
not, but several people vouch for it.
Il appears that one of the Lopez boys
was splitting wood for the doctor, and
the latter concluded TO play q practical
joke on the boy.
~Southworth had q skeleton in his
back Office; he arranged il in a chair
in the act Of holding out a dollar in
payment Of the wood splitting. When
the boy knocked the doctor said come
in" in a s~epulchral tone as the boy
entered.
When he saw the skeletons out
stretched hand he gave q yell and
bounded down stairs.
When he reached the street the doc
tor stuck his head out Of the window
and called out:
"Whst's the matter; why don't you
come back and get your dollar ?"
The boy looked up and replied in
perfect seriousness:
~ will as soon as you get your
clothes on."-Ex.

Denver has q criminal sensation that
bids fair to equal the terrible White
chapel, London, England, tragedies Of
a few years ago. Like the Whitechapel
horrors, the victims are the demi-
monde, but in the place Of hacking and
mutilating the bodies Of the victims as
was the case with the London iend,
the Denver wretch resorts to strangu-
lation. No less than three Of the de-
mimondes Of Market street have met
their death In this manner during the

no clue to the perpetrator Of the deed.
