ticular or specific kind of money coined
or issued by the United States, was
read the third time. In support of it
the author made the first speech he has
favored the House with this session.
He proved himself able and facile, and
though he seemed, perhaps, to force the
measure into the field of partisan poll
tics, yet his speech was a capital one
from a Populist standpoint and was
accorded fiattering attention by the
House. The bill was refused passage
| though more than one Republican
voted for it and Dibble, in explaining
his vote, spoke with vigor for the right
| to pay debts in any legal money of the
United States.

the House, on a resolution calling for

it's original shape, a horizontal slice of

terms, but it was subjected to sharp
attacks and to several amendments
and was ordered to the printer.
| Seven bills We're read the Second time.

Questions for Young rlen.

1t is an old saying among schoolboys
and college men that the fellow who
keeps his mouth shut is always the big
tie quickly wins for himself the name
for wisdom. Such statements are
quite as true in the outer world to d
certain degree as they are in college
and school. The pith of the matter is
that if in any way you arrive at a posi-
ton of any Importance, the less you talk
to every one the more credit you re-
ceive for care. for thoughtfulness, for
sound wellconsidered opinions. Here
is nothing which urges a boy to have no
opinions or to never express them; and
in fact this wise silence" at school and
college as often, perhaps, covers up an
empty mind as it does the wisdom of
Solomon. There is, however, good
rule to follow, which may be given
briefly, to the effect that it is we'll to
say little until you have thoroughly
made up your mind, and then not to hes
itate in your statements. The tempta-
ton of the average man is to express
some opinion at once, but If that is
changed later, the full force of the final
opinion is lost.
Let others do the wrangling. Your
opinion will have all the more influence
If you come out strong with it at the
close of the discussion, when not only
are the others considerably in doubt as
to what they do want, but you have also
had the advantage of hearing many
sides of the case.
That is to say, that in your daily be-
havior toward the others in school il is
we'll to keep your talk in reserve. 1t
is a habit easily acquired, and one that
in the end works both ways. 1t adds
both to the value of your advice, be-
cause the advice is better considered,

SENATE AT WORK.
An Entire Day Spent in Considering
the File.

In the Senate yesterday morning Lin
der's bill, 342, appropriating 5000 for
the construction of free wagon road
from Mono Lake Basin to connect with a
road called "Tioga Road" at or near
Tioga mine, was taken up.
VOORHEES, explained that owing to the
absence of the road connecting with the
highways of California, the people east
of the mountains residing in the section
referred to were obliged to make long,
wearisome trip into Nevada before they
could reach the State proper, TO which
their territory belonged.
Pedlar and Simpson also spoke in
favor of the bill and it was passed by
vote of SO to 0-title approved.

SENATE SPECIAL FILE.
Pedlar's S. B. los, amending the mu-
nicipal corporation law, was read third
time and passed.
Bert's S. B. IA came up on third read
ing and was the subject of lively de-
bate, Shanahan taking the same
ground that he did on Friday, viz:
That the bug in the bill was the estab-
fishing of Monte Carlo at modest lit
tie Emoryville, just over the fence from
Oakland. Bettman, Leavitt and Hart
North championed the bill and ex-
planned that While it does undoubtedly
validate the charter and fit the case
of Emoryville, it also fits the case Of
many other towns incorporated by
Boards of Supervisors. The race track
at Emoryville, which was Objectionable
to Shanahan, seems to be a maater
of pride to the citizens, who, 1t is rep
resented, sreatly desire the passage of
the bill Rettman made a rafting good
speech, offsetting Shanahan's quotation
from a recent Chronicle" article, on
which the argument against the bill
was based, with one from the Call, -
which favored the bill strongly. The
bill was passed, Shanahan giving no.
tice OF motion to reconsider.
The afternoon closed with a squabble
over the files. AS adjournment ap-
proacheS and it is evidently impoSSl-
bic to bring all the bills through, there
is a scramble to fix the files according
to every mans desires; the Speaker at
last declared that he would entertain
motion for recess and declare it on
one Affirmative vote if things did not
straighten out The file of eighty
one to each member-will be com
menced on Monday afternoon, the con-
stitutional amendments, including that
for woman suffrage, are set for Mon
day evening.
The general appropriation bill has
still % be passed in the House and sent
to the Senate; the county fee bill has
not returned from the printer; the
county and township government bill
has not yet got away from second read
ing; there is plenty of business for the
last days, whether they be few or
many.

FARM STREWN WITH GOLD COIN.
Hidden Wealth of Paul NarceIIe
Eagerly Sought.

SIOUX CITY, To-, March 29.-Only
the constant presence of big bulldog,
a Waterman and q double barreled
shotgun serves to keep prospectors off
the Narcelle farm, fifty miles north of
Fort Pierre, S. D. The farm is rich in
gold deposits and while these deposits
were undoubtedly sailed they were
sailed to the tune of from $3.50, 900 to
100000 in gold coin of the United
States. This money the present owners
of the farm think they are better en-
titled to than the wandering adVentur-
ers who have manifested so strong a
disposition to turn the premises bottom
upward in search of wealth
Paul Narcelle, late owner of the tract,
was Canadian Frenchman. Like
many of his countrymen his opinion of
banks was of the poorest, and rather
than risk his money in such institu-
tons 1t was his custom to plant it
In small caches about the farm Dur
Ing his residence of fifty years or more
in the DakotaS his savings amounted
to large sum. Shortly before his last
illness his sons urged him either to
dig up the money and bank it or to
furnish them with the key to his hiding
places. The old gentleman refused to
consider any proposition Of this char
acter, however, and finally died with
out giving the slightest clew to his
various places of concealment. His
heirs have been Systematically dig
ging over every inch of the farm ever
since, and, although they have realized
a considerable Sum-the exact amount
has not been made public-the total
falls far short. of the treasure the old
man was known to have accumulated
Residents all over the adjoining coun-
try expressed much interest in the in
vestigatiOns and eagerly volunteered
their services in prosecuting them.
Such offers have been uniformly declin-
ed and in not a few cases parties have
been caught in the act of mining on
their own account. Narcotics custom
vas to inclOse the money in old vege-
liable, fruit or oyster cans. His de-
poslts amounted in most cases to 5000
or 500 each.
