Carson Correspondence.

Editor DISPATCH As l always think
OF dear old Wadsworth as a home, it
being the birth place OF my children, 1
take this can of letting my dear old
friends know where l am and what l am
doing and the news in general.
| had not been in town ten minutes
before | was asked ii | was going 10
stand in for Lem Allen for Governor.
The thought Of that poll tax law made
me hesitate about answering until such
time as | might be able to secure a few
shares of Jim Townsend's stock in the
Rubber Oyster Company, or Allen had
secured a controlling interest in the pet
ri6ed cattle on Sand Springs Flat.
We see a great deal of buzzing around
politically but nothing to mar the slum-
Der OF any aspirant has showed itself on
the surface as yet.
1t is rumored on the street that Ex-
Governor Colcord has his eye ON the
mint as long as a change has to be made
when MIR. Adams term expires. l can
not, at the present time, think OF a bet
ter man for the position.
Now as to myself after shaking with
the ague in the Sacramento valley for
three years and freezing the marrow in
my bones in Truckee for the last year,
have come to the conclusion that Car
SOL is the place for me and | have Sc

Bold Burglary.

Bold bad burglars or a burglar mashed
in a So pane of giass IN the front Of tho
NadsWorth Commercial Cos. binding
Sunday night between II and u o'clock
and tnen stepped through the hole
where the glass used to be. The tills in
the butcher shop and grocery store were
made vacant and the thief was richer by
$40 or 800. G.. W. Kinney heard the
crashing glass but he thought it vas the
proprietor of the store aud paid no atten-
to the matter. A l30-pound New
Foundland pup is lett in the store at
night and prior to Sunday last was sup
posed to be burglar proof. He isn't. He
wasn't stolen. But then he weighs $50
pounds. However, that the burglary
occurred may not be the pups fault.
He MAJ have loved the burglar. Per-
haps the burglar cultivated the pups
acquaintance in bygone days. There is
no accounting for tastes and then the
pup is a handsome animal. Wadsworth
is getting rapid again. One hOusebreak-
er and two getty larcenists have been
contributed to the county Jail from here
this week. 1t would doubtless give the
public much satisfaction il the officers
could add this burglar or two and make
it a quartette or q~uintette. And thus
call a halt on stealing. 1t is a very bold
act to rob a store on Main street before
midnight with a bright zoe in the
heavens, and get away with money.
Success persuades such a character to
attempt to make a record.

The Nevada war claims amounting 70
$780, 900 have been reported by the Com
mittee on Claims OF which Senator
Ste vart is a member. He says: The
difficulty with these claims has been
failure in the House after they had pass
ed the Senate. Ii is hoped that bunch
ing the claims together will interest
enough members to procure consldera-
ton and passage through the House.
Senator Richards, of Lander County,
in the Wadsworth DISPATCH announces
himself a possible candidate for Con
gress. Among other things, he says he
is not in love with the Purity OF Elec-
tions law as he considers 1t only a cloak
behind which large sum OF money Is
advanced to subsidize newspapers by
millionaire candidates. This is about
as rich a thing as we have seen in print,
since it is a we'll known fact that the en-
tire press of the State asked for the
repeal OF the obnoxious law at the last
session Of the Legislature, and Mr..
Richards and his many friends could
not accomplish it. When it is consider
ed that the Silver Party papers were
subsidized with a SIP check from the
Central Committee for advertising that
amounted to several hundred dollars
during the campaign, the cream on the
above remarks by the Senator gets
thicker.-Dayton Times.
Pythians are deeply interested in a
new organization within their ranks
known as the |. o. K. of p, which
means the Internal Order OF Kings of
P~urgatory. A newspaper report says it
is proposed that |. o. X. OF P. shall hold
a session on the 10Th. OF February OF
each year, the anniversary Of the found
alton OF the order OF Pythians. No one
shall be eligible to membership but the
members of the order of Knights of Py-
thias, but the degrees OF the new order,
which will be many in number, may be
conferred on any members or non Py-
thians, who will be permitted to apply
for the privileges of becoming indicted
into the several mysteries, on the recom-
mendation of members. The ritual that
has been prepared with great care is, it
is said by those who have perused it,
nj thu most intaraatin0 nj UNIV aldo daoraa
that has ever been presented. The can
didates will be given an insight of the
workings OF some secret societies, which
will make them feel at times somewhat
startled, but the lesson they will learn
will be most instructive. The parapher-
MALTA necessary for the carrying out Of
the degrees and the uniforms to be worn
by the kings of purgatory, namely, the
sublime king and his four imps, 1t is
said, will be very fine.

ANCIENT SEPULCHRE.
Found Near Columbus, Ohio, Com
taing Bones and Skulls in PrOfu-


From the Columbus Dispatch.
A rich mine for the archaeologist was
developed near this city on Tuesday, and
1t is to be hoped that the proper officials
of the State University may find much
there to add to their collection. On the
farm of Mr.. e. ]. Miller, of this city, was
the find made. The farm is about four and
one-half miles southeast of Columbus, and
is devoted to large and small fruit rails
ing, and irrigation forms prominent fea-
ture of the cultivation. On the farm is
very large mound, the summit of which
is higher than the top of the dome of the
state house
Recently it was determined to construct
a reservoir on the top of this mound the
water supply TO be obtained from a spring
in the valley beneath, the water being
raised by a steam pump, pipes then car
rying the water wherever needed on the
farm. The reservoir was to be ten feet
deep and twenty seven feet in diameter.
Men were put TO work yesterday, and had
reached a depth of IS inches or two feet,
when a sepu1chre was opened, that was
beyond the experience of any in the party
who knew anything about the opening of
Indian mounds. The SOIL after breaking
through the top SOIL was light and crum-
bling, showing that 1t had been disturbed
at some unknown period. Then skulls be-
gan to be found; the spade would cut
through a thigh bone or the bone of an
arm; ribs, and other bones were In profu
sion Some attention was paid to the dig
ging and quite a number of bones, includ-
ing skulls, were recovered IN fairly good
shape. The diggers reported that the num-
Der of people who were buried there must
have been a hundred, If the number of
bones was any criterion by which to judge
There was a large variety of flint arrow
heads found, with a number of curious
shaped stones, the use of which was puz-
zling to the men who unearthed them, but
possibly known to the professional arch
aeoligist The age of the mound Is, of
course, beyond present knowledge, but
there were present at the digging a num-
Der of people who had lived In the vicinity
a great many years. They stated that they
remembered years ago that a tree, at least
two and one-half feet in diameter, stood
on the top of the mound where the exca-
walton was made, but there has been no
trace of that tree for many years. Inc his
tory of those men, whose bones have just
been uncovered, would undoubtedly read
like a romance, but the secret of the origin
and their end Is a mystery of the past. A
number of the relics will be brought to the
city, but there are but few of them in a
condition to remove or to last long. for the
great part of them crumble under the
pressure of the hand.
