The Wadsworth dispatch. [volume] (Wadsworth, Nev.) 1892-1899, 1895-11-23

An exchange says there are two kinds
OF new women; one kind shows Trains,
the other legs. And, sad to relaSa, the
former Will pass through the world un-
noticed by men. while the latter will al
tract many admiriig g~lances from the
sterner Sex and be %enyiel by the brain
eiass.
General Craigliill. Cliiei OF Engineers,
y. S. A. must have an idea that the
coming Congress Nill make liberal APP
priations, as, in his annual report to the
Secretary OF War, he presents estimates
for appropriations for river and harbor
improvements aggregating more than
s21 900, 900.
1t is an encouraging sign of perma-
nent prosperity that many inquiries are
received for property in the agricultu-
raj parts OF the state. Nevada needs
more farmers. They ara needed not
only &c extend the limits OF the irrigated
districts, but to utilize economically
more OF the land already under ditch.
Iowa newspaper men are waging war
againgst the ''card-of-thanks'' nuisance
and declare that if any portion of the
community are so strongly welded to
the idea OF thanking their friends and
nc;ghbors for common courtesies,
through the newspapers, they must pay
for the publication.-Del Norte Record.
"Reed will probably go into the con
y%ention with the largest number OF
votes, with Mckinley next. The result,
in my opinion, will be the nomination
who will be lower down in the list.
That man is the history of all nation al
conventions" says Senator Baker OF
Kansas.
In San Francisco the disgusting play
of the 'Crime of a Century" Durrant il
called "Du-Bois' and Blanche Lamont
is called Beatrice Loeomb," and Min
ME Williams is styled "Margerie Will
son." Large crowds go to see this play,
which is as bad rs possible. No official
interference has yet been offered to stop
it.
The great drawback to the woman
suffrage cause in Massachusetts, as
everywhere else, is that only a COM
paratively small proportion OF the wo-
men care to vote. As ii general rule,
they are willing to leave that sort OF
thing to the other sex. Whenever they
rise up anywhere and demand the ballot
with practical unanimity, they will get
it; but it will not be thrust upon the
many to crafty the few.
A recent decision by the Minnesota
Supreme Court lndi,'ates that Minneso-
ia husbands with hot-temi ere wives
will either have to keep them at home
or send them out calling muzzled. The
decision is in the case OF William Petit
Morgan against Esther Kennedy ct al.
and William Kennedy, her husband.
The Court holds that the common law
rule making the husband liable for
damages for slanderous words uttered
by his wife, even though he was not
present and had not participated, is not
~abrogated by any Of the statute relat-
ing to marriages, but still holds COOL.
The Denison Dispatch says that a
cigarette is a roll of paper, toll a co and
drugs, with "a small fire at II end a
large fool at the other. Some of its
chief enjoyments are condensed night
mares, fits, cancer of the lips and
stomach, spinal meningitis, softening of
the brain, funeral professions and
mothers shrouded in gloom. There are
plenty of subjects left, however, who
are perfectly willing to undergo trials of
such a trivial nature for the sake of
putting on a certain amount OF style.
