will be mailed to all of our weekly
subscribers, and it being the last is
sue they will receive before election,
we most earnestly advise all who have
the welfare OF Nevada at heart to cast
their ballot next Tuesday the Sill
yer State ticket. Upon it's success or
defeat depends much Of good or evil
for Nevada. If victory perches upon
the silver banner, the glad news will
be borne on electric wings to all parts
Of the country giving hope and en-
enlargement to the friends of silver.
If defeat overtakes the silver cause,
the same agency will carry the news
of the States undoing to every ham,
let throughout the length and breadth
of this great country, giving encour-
agement to our enemies and carrying
dismay into the ranks Of silvermen
everywhere. =
The standard bearers of the Silver
party, Francis G. Newlands and John
E. Jones, stand for all in this cam
paign that the people of Nevada hold
most dear. They stand for that none
tary reform that has as it's basic
principle the complete reconciliation
OF silver at the historic ratio Of 16 to l.
They are the color bearers Of the peo-
pie in this great conflict and the peo
pie should rally round the ballot box
next Tuesday and by their votes send
the one to Congress and the other to
the Governors chair. They are fight
ing our battle and we should sustain
them by our votes.
Let US then go to the. ballot box
next Tuesday with the determination
to cast our votes for the only party
whose success will contribute to the
welfare not only Of Nevada, but of
the nation at large. That party is the
Silver party and it's cause is your
cause. Stand by your colors and a
glorious victory for the silver cause
will be achieved.

In folding your ballot on election day
it should be done SO that the perfora-
ton with number on it can be torn off
readily. The best way to fold it is to
double from the bottom to top twice
and then fold from left to right to the
perforation, twice or three times q.
This makes compact ticket, and will
facilitate matters greatly.

Lincoln's Wonderful Memory.

-NOdl DIOOhSs the StutuIy.
One of my cousins, John Holmes Goode-
now. of -ilfred, Me-, was appointed minis
ter to Turkey early in the Lincoln admins
tration, and was taken to the White House
before his departure for his post to be pre-
scented TO the President. When Lincoln
learned that his visitor was grandson of
John Holmes, one of the first Senators from
Maine, and man OF note in his day and
generation. he Immediately began the reci-
tation of poetical quotation which must
have been more than a hundred lines i'm
length. Mr.. Holmes. never having met the
President, was naturally astonshed at this
outburst, and as the President went on and
with this long recitation the suspicion
crossed his mind that Lincoln had suddenly
taken leave of his wits. But when the
lines had been finished the President said
There, that poem was quoted by your
grandfather Holmes in speech which he
made in the United States Senate in -
and he named the date and specified the oc-
casion. As John Holiness term in the SEN
ate ended in 1893. and Lincoln probably was
impressed by reading copy of the speech
rather than by hearing ii, this feat Of men,
DRY appears most remarkable. If he had
been by any casualty deprived of his sight
his own memory could have supplied him
with an ample library.

FAMOUS ROGUE ELEPHANTS.
One of Them Was Killed from n Cage
Built on a Wagon
:. F. Holder. in St. Nicholas

e. r. Holder, IN 81. NlcnolaS.
The complete history of rogue elephants
would make an interesting chapter. They
seem to have decided to avenge mans
wrongs against their kind. Some years ago
one rogue actually took possession OF a
stretch of country in India forty miles
wide by one hundred long, and In a bus
iness-like way proceeded to demolish every,

tore them apart, or tossed them until they

or killed them whenever it could, or, stand

against the watch towers or scanolds;
Whenevers this rogue saw one ne would
creep slyly, spring at IL, push IL &c the
ground and kill its occupants.
A famous rogue elephant named 'Mandla"
was owned by rich man near Jubbelpore,
in central India. Suddenly it began to de-
velop the characteristics of a rogue" and
attacked human beings wherever seen. 1t
killed them SO cruelty that It became ne wide
!inally destroyed by an organized effort OF
I lglish army officers.
Another famous rogue took possession of
n. public road and attacked every passerby.
Suddenly Garting from the jungle, it would
rush up TO an ox-cart, seize the driver with
its trunk and disappear. Repeated raids of
this kind so terrified the people that
large tract of land was to all intents and
purposes but rid nal s an English 81
the rogue BY careful inquiry he found
that the elephant, always seized the driver
and If there were two carts in company,
il chose the driver of the last. So he ar
ranged two ox-carts, putting dummy
driver upon the second. while upon the
first was a stout bamboo cage in which
the hunter was to sit rifle in hand. When
all was ready the two OK carts started,
one day followed by the hopes and best
wishes of the community. The fatal dis
trict was soon reached, and. about half
way down the road, there came a crash
and the monstrouS elephant. dark and
ugly. dashed upon the party Making d.

man and made off, receiving as il went
shot from the cage. But the oxen. alarmed
by the uproar ran away, leaving the road
and taking TO the open country. They
tipped the cart over nearly killing the
Gagged driver and the English sportsman.
What the elephant thought when il tore
the dummy into shreds must be imagined.
Some months later however, this rogue
was driven away and caught.

The Byron. at the Park.

The Park inaugurates week of popular
entertainment tomorrow afternoon, when
Mr. and Mrs. Oliver Byron open in their
new play. THE Ups and Downs Of Life"
This drama is a great success both in this
country and England. The author has writ
ten a play In which there is no murder.
There is villainy, but it is unrelieved by a
drop of gore Mr.. Byron has introduced
into this comedy-drama startling novelty.
An enormous steam road-roller, apparently
weighing forty tons, rumbles across the
stage close TO the heros body and driven
by the villain. Not content with the effect
this has on the spectators, Mr.. Byron has
invented a marvellous piece of machinery by
which the boiler explodes and hurls the
would-be murderer amid tongues Of flame
and volumes of steam and smoke into
space, in full sight of the audience.
In their old plays, Across the Continent"
and The Plunger," the Byrons have al
ways crowded the Park, and their new
piece is said to be better than the former
successes They remain all week, with the
usual daily matinees. The New Years
matinee will begin at 2:30 instead of 2
