Complaints have recently been made
to the NUGGET, with a request to give
them notice that respectable people are
becoming indignant at the impudence
displayed and the foul language used
by some of the courtesans, who make
their homes here. DeLamar people
show great deal of forbearance for
this class, but will not stand letting
them mingle with decent people. Two
of them had the impudence to parade
themselves at the picnic ground on
Monday. They are also accused of get
ting very bold in front of their resorts.
There is law which will stop this and
there are men here who will demand
that the officers enforce it. Go slow.

Alex Mcleod, who has been over at
Willow Creek, for several weeks, re
turned on Sunday, but has no very flat
tering accounts to give of the general
outlook of that district. He says, with
more development, some of the claims
over there, the Checkmate and the King
in particular, may prove to be valuable.
The latter, owned by McDougall and
Phillips, is developing some fine speci-
men ore. Mcleod says that Shorty
Miller, barring the loss of his hand, is
getting along all right. He is still
little lame in one leg, but the injury
to his leg is not permanent.

stump while waiting for the play to

ton, said:
Mistakes will occur and things
will set mixed up in the theatrical
business as well as in any other. ]
remembe one season when / was
with The Country Farm every
thing real, you know-real cows,
horses, chickens and all that sort OF
stuff. One act was in the city, and
there were real fire engines, cable
cars, f~erlyboats, policemen, ant
such like; good play and took in
money by the %barrelful, but hard
work for me; had to buy fresh
vegetables for the COWS to eat in
full view of the audience and look
after a taft of other things.
zone night out at GAINESVILLE, O.,
just as the curtain wentup, the bay
mule, who appeared in the first tab
leau, kicked the brass cannon used
in the Fourth of July scene. He
was a powerful kicker, having been
rracticing en- me for about three
months, and the heat generated by
the striking of his shoe against the
oannon set off the charge, and it
blaZed away right among the real
COWS and other animals. The whole
caboodle Of I'm stampeded straight
on to the stage. The real chickens
also few on, and the fire engine
horses likewise naturally charged
in, the racket being right IN THEN
line. The stage hands and most OF
the actors rushed on to try to
stIaighten out the tangle.
About this tine a water pipe
burst, ard something set off the
thunder machine, ard it began to
thunder worse than / had ever heard
it before in a long and eventful life.

and the paper fakes began to t1utter
down pretty lively, while a box OF
red fiji in the wings caught from
smoldering cannon wadding and
cast n lurid and titful glare DER the
general cataclysm, as may call 1t.
The real Durham bull tossed the
heavy villain on his horns, and the
real old Southdown ram butted the
comic mar across the footlights and
back into the neighborhood OF the
fifth row, landing him in the lap OF
his honor the mayor. 1t was a
scene long to lie remembered, with
the chickens flying up into the pro
scenium boxes ard cackling like
mad, and the orchestra trying to
play the whole thing down with a
redhot selection from Wagner. But

Anoanoesoent Electric Lamps.

1t has been proved that the incandes-
cent electric lamp does not smoke
the ceiling, as has been claimed, but
that the smoky effect is due to dust.
The heat of the lamp naturally causes a
turrent of air to rise, and the conse-
,Iuence is that there is more dust depos-
tied on the ceiling above the lamp than
anywhere else.

when it is entirely closed deafness is the
result, and unless the Inflammation can
