I'm Memory OF jackson,

Governor Colcord has received a
circular from the Ladies' Hermitage
Association--a society whose aim is to
care for General Jackson's homeland
this circular states that on January 8,
1894, between the hours OF 10 and IL
A. NJ. the new Liberty Bell will be rung
and other appropriate exercises will be
held to commemorate the battle OF
New Orleans and its gallant hero. The
ladies request that all the bells in the
various capitals OF the United States
be rung on that day and at the hour
specified above.
The school children should be in
vited to participate in the exercises
and thus not only add TO the attrac-
tiveness OF the program but also stamp
indelibly a patriotic lesson upon the
minds OF the rising generation, and
certainly no such opportunity should
be neglected.
Each Governor is also requested TO
send a memento to the Hermitage"
and We suggest that Nevada's
Governor send a branch OF our best
sagebrush tied with a silver ribbon

The old Vigilante Bell, which
sounded the death knell Of Cory and
Casey way back in SO will be ex-
hibited at the Midwinter Fair. There
is a dispute as to whether Truckee or
Petaluma possesses that interesting
relic. The former town claims that
the bell in the engine house tower in
its town is the genuine Yigilante bell
and was purchased with documents
showing its pedigree and authenticity.
Truckee without doubt possesses the

Bismarck, in talking about America.
said: "The security and strength Of
your country lie in the fact that the
American race is a mixed one-a
'Sammel-volk.' History has never
made a great people in any other way.
Look at France. 1t was the invasions
from Italy and the north that gave her
bone and sinew. Spain was strongest
because she sucked in Iberian blood.
And England, what made her SO great ?
Not the invasion OF Anglo-Saxons only,
but the fact that there they joined hands
with the Normans. A people may be
comfortable and prosperous without an
influx Of foreign blood, but it will
cease to be capable of great things
whenever that ceases. THE Century.

it made quite as much sound as he did

A NRRNf TnAMP.

On the morning OF the 29th ult. when
the freight train from the east arrived
in Reno a man, who emerged from a
car loaded with long horned steers,
told a Gazette reporter that when en-
desvoring to secure free passage on the
cattle train leaving Winnemucca the
night before one OF the railroad boys
said that he would let him into a cat
tie car where he could ride as long as
he wanted to keep company with the
steers. To the surprise OF th~e-railroad
man the offer was accepted and the
tramp jumped in. lie says he rode
the greater part Of the 175 miles be-
tween Winnemucca and Reno astride
one of the animals, and when he got
cold or tired Of hat position. he stood
in among them, where he found it
quite warm and comfortable, and
would have continued on his journey
westward had 1t not been for hunger
and the absence OF any mich cows in
the car, so he got off at Reno to rustic
a little grub for the strengthening Of
his courage.
The railroad men in Reno say that
brake beam and blind baggage tourists
are quite common, but they never be-
fore heard OF one beating his way on
the back Of a wild steer.-Silver State.

The question is being agitated looking
to the laying of q telegrsphic cable from
some point or the Pacific coast to the
Hawaiian Islands. The laying Of such .
cable would be of great benefit in the in.
between those islands and the
United States. Surveys have been made
which show the most favorable condi-
ton ever known in laying an ocean cable.
San Francisco is being located as the
most available point to start from, as
it will be about four hundred miles
nearer han from Vancouver. Under the
present condition Of affairs, and the
status those islands are likely to acquire,
it makes it very necessary that this
country should assume control Of and
lay such q cable with the least possible
delay.-Enterprise.

A gentleman from up the river, who,
for obvious reasons does not want his
name mentioned, relates that a few
evenings ago he had occasion to build
a bonfire ON an ice pond about two
miles below Floriston. He left it still
burning and went home. The next
morning when he came back he was
surprised TO see four coyotes setting on
the ice upon their launches in a circle
about the black embers. He APP
preached them and while they made
frantic efforts to get away they seemed
fastened to the ice. He procured a
club and dispatched all four. His
theory is that they sat down on the
ice, attracted by the blaze, and froze
fast.-Reno Journal.
