Chief Justice Peters in making a
charge in a case in court removed a
certain weight Of responsibility from
the shoulders of the horse jockey. He
said that in driving q bargain it is al
lowable to use a certain amount OF
traders talk" in which the buyer is
to believe at his own risk. 1.-THE law
cannot hold a man responsible for
everything he may say in drying a
trade" said Judge Peters; "itcannot.
II expects the buyer to use ordinary
precautions, and if he gets cheated by
believing all the chaffering INDUCED in
by the seller he must necessarily suf-
fer. The law steps in only in case OF
fraud, defined according to legal stat
utes. "-Lewiston Journal.

In these days of study and sedentary
work, requiring much use Of the eyes,
they often become so tired that they
refuse to do their work good. This is
particularly true when the work is done
in a poor light or when it is fine work.
Few eyes win bear any such treatment
for any great length of time without
being spoiled.
The question is often asked: What
can be done in such cases? There is
n remedy for tired eyes that has
great value. 1t consists of massage
with the hand wet in cold or cool
water. Fill a basin with it, and stand
ing over it wet the hand with as much
water as it will hold and applyit to the
eyes, at the same time with the thumb
and forefinger giving the eyes a gentle
manipulation. Continue the process
for four or five minutes several times a
day. The results are often little short
OF marvellous.

A prominent Gold Hill young man

that inebriates the other evening. He
was found near the road at 3 o'clock in
the morning laboring under a strange
hallucination. He thought that he had
gone blind. He had captured q pig Of
the female persuasion. which he be-
lieved to be his faithful dog. He had
tied a string around the pigs neck
and was blindly following where
the animal led the way, doubtless hop

A very pretty story is told Of a short
dialogue between Washington and JEFF
ferson concerning the usefulness of a
Senate. Washington thought there
should be two Houses, and Jefferson
thought a second House superfuous.
The two statesmen we're discussing the
question in a familiar way, Jefferson
standing before a fire with a cup Of tea
in his hand. "Of what use is the Sem
ate 2" he asked, pouring a little of the
tea into the saucer. "You have an
swered your own question:" replied
Washington. But Jefferson was too
much absorbed in the theme to per-
ceive the drift OF Washington's re-
marks. He wanted to know how he
had answered his OWL question. "Why
do you pour tea into your saucer ?"
was the Yankee-like way Of answering
the question. ITO cool it," wal the
immediate response. "Even So" re-
turned Washington. the Senate is
the saucer into which we pour legis-
lation to COOL"

GirIhood's Charm I'm woman.

The woman who keeps the simple
ity Of her eirlhood, its generous impul-
ses and quick ~sympathies, and who
adds to her natural gifts the enlarge
ment OF study and the crown Of expe-
rience, is always at her best and never
past it. When the exterior attractions
of form and color diminish and depart,
as they mostly do, the radiance OF our
inner illumination will more than COM
pensate their departure. But, in order
that this should be SO, her moral must
equal her intellectual gain. She must
be willing TO learn, not only her own
powers, but her own defects also. and
to court the good influence which can
help her to escape from the decisions
OF sense and the fatal tyranny OF self
consciousness. She must discard the
petty measures OF vanity and self.seek-
ing, and learn to love her race, her
country and the humanity which she
should help to adorn.-Julia Ward
Howe.

A California telegram states that the
Assembly there has adopted a proposed
constitutional amendment which, if it
becomes a law, will take away the

IMPORTANT MINING DISCOVERY
A Mountain OF Gold Bearing Quarts
fn the Fox Range.


William Ross, an old prospector, has
created the greatest mining excitement
Of the year. He has been prospecting
in the Fox range Of mountains, about
twenty miles north OF Pyramid Lake,
and discovered a lead that is over one
hundred feet wide, and can be traced
by groupings for over four miles. The
formation in which the lead is situated
is porphyry on the hanging wall and
slate on the foot wall. The trend OF
the lead is almost due north and south
with a dip to the west. There are
millions Of tons of pre- in sight. The
ore has a blush tinge and contains a
high percentage OF granite. Assayers
say they never saw anything like it
before. 1t contains from SO to $12 per
ton in gold. The ore is free from base
metal and sulphurets, the gsngue be-
ing quartz and graphite. Assayers say
il can be worked by ordinary mill pro-
cess, as the gold is free. Samples Of
the ore have been taken to the State
University, and it will be treated by
Professor Jackson of the mining depart
ment. who will analyze it and determine
how it can be worked.
From reports received the ore body
is as extensive as that Of the Treadwell
mine OF Alaska. and carries more than
twice as much gold. The facilities for
working the ore on the ground are good.
There is an abundance Of wood and
about fifty inches Of water, with plenty
Of fall. The mine is about 80 miles
due north from Reno, and is about 40
miles from the terminus Of the MOO.
at Amadee. Mr.. Ross, the discoverer
Of the mine, named it the Tin-Silver
lead, as he thought from the appear
ance OF the ore it contained tin or sill
yer, or both, whereas assays show that
it contains neither.
The owners are William Ross, Frank
Dickinson, Seeley Trumbull, William
