property stays. And this reminds US
that man loses mach by not owning
a home. He loses all he pays out in rent
He misses much Of that which makes
life pleasurable; besides this. he
knows that every dollar expended up
on his home in adding to its beauty
and upon his grounds in increasing
its edornments is dollar of wealth
added to his name, and more: it soon
mounts up into usury and compound
interest. 1t increases his happiness
and adds to his content. We feel for
the man who does not own a home to
beautify and adorn, for he is a sorry
creature at best. Happy Is the man
whose home is his own, not rented.--

American:-The closing of the In
dia lnints to silver coinage has not
only resulted in fall in the price of
silver as measured in rupees but the
prices of commodities in general. The
truth is, Of course, that the rupee has
been made more valuable. the nat
ural result of closing the mints to in
dividual coinage and arbitrarily re
stricting the supply OF rupees. So it
ia that taxation has grown more bur.
densome, che farmer having to give
more and more produce for the ru
pees demanded by che tax gatherer
just as prices have fallen. And this
virtual increasing burden of taxation
coming on ton OF legislation cutting
the value of the savings of the Indian
in half has bred deep discomfort that
only a spark is needed to set into
flame.

THE ALASKAN DOG.
Cruel Treatment Ia the Reward for
Their Affection and Intelligence.

Cruel Treatment IL the Reward for
Their Affection and Intelligence. q.
The Alaskan dog is almost human in
intelligence. He weighs about 100
pounds. Heavily laden he will travel as
many as 60 miles day.
With 30 dogs in q team no two of
them are in a straight line from the
driver. When unhitched for the night
they pile upon the first blanket that is
thrown upon the snow, and there they
stay. When you crawl into your sleep
ing bag and pull robe over it the dog
will get under the robe. Unless you are
careful he will be inside Of the bag in
the morning. Their endurance is phe-
nomenal, and they are capable of strong
affection. They are great fighters.
A traveller who recently returned
from Alaska says of the treatment.ac-
corded these faithful animals:
The whip that is used on them is the
cruelest thing of the kind known to
man. Thirty feet in length and two
inches thick near the short handle, it
has lash ten feet long that cuts like a
knife. The Russian knout isn't in it.
When the dog is struck you hear a
sharp yelp, and then your sleigh whirls
past bit Of fur or possibly piece of
bloody skin lying on the snow" =

UNNECESSARY SURPRISE.

The Republican papers of the State
are considerably excited over the ap.
pointment Of a carpet Dagger to fat
Office as Indian Agent. ....r
What reason they had to think that
an administration that had always Ig-
nored Nevada would suddenly Gull
tivate an interest in it is beyond the
comprehension Of any ordinary NOR
tai. The administration hates the
very name of silver and hates any To-
cality where it is produced.
Under these circumstances its
course should occasion no surprise to
anyone. Nevada first hoisted the flag
Of revolt and the grand political in
surrection has spread to every State
in the Union. In the end it will

Republican party, the party 1T trusts
and monopoEes, Of plutocrats and
mlllionaires to make way for the
party of the common people. the pro-
ducers, the toilers and those who
work for their bread.
We do not dispute the proposition
that the Republican papers in Ne
vada worked hard for the destruc-
ton of silver and should be rewarded
by the party whose tools they were.
1t ID evident, however, that the party
is done with these people and don't
propose to reward them. A party
that will not keep faith with the
people Of the country and one that
will lie year after year In it's plat
forms would hardly have any scr,l
pcs about lying to newspapers who
were fools enough to take any stock
in their promises. They doubtless

Ships That Have Sailed from Port,
Not to Return.
It is some four years now since the
last mysterious disappearance of
great ship, says the Pittsburgh Dis
patch. This was the Naronic, freight
steamer of unusual size, which sailed
the Atlantic and was lost in 1893. Pieces
of wreckage from this vessel have been
picked up, however, which has not hap
pened in all such cases. Among the
mysterious disappearanoes of the past
were the steamships President, City of
Glasgow, Pacific, Ocean Monarch and
City of Boston, the ironclad CaItafnl
and the Liberia and Barton. 8Sht
Twenty-seven years have passed
away since the City of Boston was
placed on the missing list, but some ore
now living who had friends and rela-
tives on board of her.
The City of Boston cleared at the port
of New York on Tuesday, January %,
1870. She sailed for Liverpool by the
way of Halifax, with IL cabin and 4S
Storage passengers. Since she left
Halifax no vestige Of her has ever been
seen except q plank upon which was
scratched q message saying that the
ship was sinking. Her exact fate will
never be known.

There was nothing for the officer to do

upon the kegs of gunpowder. The fuses
were lighted and began spluttering. rapidly
