morrow the largest crowd in the his
tory of outdoor. sport in this vicinity viii
be on hand to witness it. The excite
ment has been added to this season by the
excellent chances of success for the New

veloped the strongest team for this strug-
gle that has represented the college in
years, and the prospect of success never
appeared brighter before in the. big game
than they do today fer the Tigers.
Tomorrow at Philadelphia the annual
game VIII be played between Harvard and
the University of Penn The game is
creating almost as much interest IN Bos-
ton and Philadelphia as is manifested
here IN the contest ait Manhattan Field

During the late panic, a good story
was circulated in Wall Street. George
Gould was examining with great anx-
iety the ticker in the office of Russell
Sage. The ticker clicked dismally,
bearing momentary evidence to the anx-

One of the many natural wonders of
Arizona scenery just made accessible
by the opening up of new rail and stage
roads is remarkable natural bridge in
the Tonic basin, not far from Flagstaff.
The bridge is $50 feet long, and spans a
canyon some 200 feet deep, at the bot
tom of which flows river. The bridge
is rock, and is perfectly proportioned
The under side is gracefully arched and
the upper perfectly level The walls
of the canyon are honeycombed with

Such Nonsense.

Several Idaho newspapers have been
ndulging In most contemplate filings
at Senator Dubois because his vote
wac not recorded for the free coinage
substitute for the bond bill. This is
rankest kind of demagougery Every
mothers son of those editors knows
that Dubois was paired with a goldbug
and could not vote. But to settle the
question we clip the following from the
Congressional Record of February:
+'Mr. Dubois when his name was called
am paired with the senior senator
from New Jersey Mr.. Smith, who is
called home to attend funeral in his
family. If the senator from New Jer-
sey were present he would at any rate
vote against the committee substitute
the unlimited coinage provision-and
think he would vote against all
amendments to the bill; but do not
feel at liberty to vote now unless some
senator on the other side of the cham
Der assures me that the senator from
New Jersey would vote against the
pending amendent.
'Mr. Hill. The senator from New
Jersey before he left called my atten-
ton to the fact of his pair with the SEN
ator from Idaho; and, without disclos-
ing exactly what he said, will say that
l think the senator from New Jersey
did not expect the senator from Idaho
to vote on anything pertaining to the
bill in the absence Of the senator from
New Jersey.
"Mr. Dubois. Thought perhaps we
might agree on this question and vote
the same way.
':Mr. Hill. The precise effect of this
amendment upon the state of the bill
might be uncertain, and therefore I
suggest to the senator from Idaho that
he should not vote.
"Mr. Dubois. Very well. OF course I
expect to observe my pair strictly"

Some Sayings of Jim Townsend, Nevada,
witty Editor.
Never stir the mush with one hand
and comb your hair with the other.
One advantage we have over the En-
glish, sure. Weget London news half
a day before they do.
A barber will never own up that he
has cut you. He calls it close shave
and jabs on some alum.
A man who has plenty of money and
won't turn it loose and enjoy it, is like a
jackass that packs bullion and feeds on
sagebrush.
No snap shot camera can catch the
true expression that takes hold of a
mans face when he finds that four
jacks amt good for the pot.
The professional mining expert" is
the only man in the world who is paid
for his opinion on matters of which he
is stupendously ignorant
This year-'96- is right side up which
ever way you turn it. Upside down and
bottom side up it is still '96. As we will
have no year like it for a century, when
few of us will be here, this must be the
year for boom.
Never insult man with harsh words
when he wants to borrow money. 1t is
just as easy and ever so much plaes-
anter to lie to him and tell linn you
haven't got it. He may know you are
lar, but he can't deny that you are

Twisting Things Around.

The Seattle Post Intelligencer says:
Australia is really the antipodes of the
remainder of the world in all respects,
Summer time comes during the time of
European winter; the rising barometer
indicates rain and the falling the oppo-
site; the swans are all black and eagles
white; mammal lays eggs, and has
bill like duck; the native dogs never
bark; the serpents have tails like
fishes and wings like bats; the priclzly
pear grow to be tall tree, and the pop
lars and oaks seldom grow above five
feet in height; the emu has hairs in
place of feathers; the birds are without
song; the sun is in the north at noon;
the chief rivers flow inland; the pear
tree grows fruit that is beautiful to
look upon, but which, when ripe, is as
hard as though fashioned from the
wood of the tree itself; the leaves of
the trees all stand edgewise and cast
no shadows; the stone or pit of the
cherry is on the outside, and must be
cracked in order to get the meat; the
opossums fly like bats, the kingfsher
never catches fish, but lives on fruits;
the peas are poisonous; the oaks bear |
no acorns; the chestnuts are without |
burrs, and, in many instances, the trees
are hollow, with the bark on the inside.

Rich Find Near the Other DeLamar.
0. larry and Earnest Dufffn who are
engaged chopping wood about four
miles north of here, says the DeLamar
Lode, found some float rock in the vi
cinity of where they are chopping, that
assayed over $40 ounces in gold. They
kept the matter very quiet until they,
with F. R. McNambe, P M. O'Brien and
Henry Berry made some seven loca-
tions, when they informed other friends
of the discovery. The town is consid-
erably excited and the hills in the Vi
entity are now covered with prospec-
tors. The excitement is the talk of the
town as we go to press, and thus far
very direct information can be OBJ
tanned.
