camp, instead of leaving things as they

nearly a whole day Strengthening up the
camp. But this was not all, they went to
the doctors and told them to mark all
sick men they possibly could for duty.
The doctors did so. The effect was that

men for duty, 40 as to makeit appear as

view this regiment, it was so dark one

Wholly Untrue

The Virginia Chronicle has the follow
ing.
The Peoples Advocate of Winnie
mucca uses the following in one of its
recent editorials:
Stewart stated before the Senate Com
mittee, which had the matter under con-
sideration, that it would be an imposi-
ton upon the railroad to compel them to
establish a terminal point within the
boundaries of this State. a desert where
there wa no business
The above is a willful and malicious
falsehoOd, without a shadow of truth
No such sentiment, we are authorized tc
say, was ever expressed by Senator
Stewart, nor was the question of a ter
minal point in Nevada ever discussed il
committee in his presence.
Why the editor of the Advocate should
be constantly dealing in misrepresenta
ions instead of seeking the truth is in
comprehensive.

funeral. Surrounding the casket were
many beautiful and appropriate floral
offerings and it was almost hidden under
a bank of cut flowers. Among the floral
pieces were an immense cross of pink
and white roses bearing an anchor, from
the Reno Water Company. a broken
column of ivy and myrtle on which
rest d a wreath of white roses from the
Reno printers, a double triangle from the
Knights of Pythias, the sections filled
with flowers indicating the colors of the
Order, a large pillow, with the word
"Husband" in purple rmmortelles on a
ground of white camilias and fringed
with La France roses, and a second pill
low from Senator and Mrs. Kaiser. II
addition to these there were a number
of beautiful wreaths and bouquets.
The cortege was formed with the

Postmaster Martin says he has received

in the running time Of the fast mail between
Chicago and Omaha. but he has heard the
matter discussed and the announcement OF
the change Is no surprise to him. Official
Information in regard to the matter will
probably be received by him within few
days.
Speaking of the effect Of the change upon
the business of this city the postmaster said
1T will really mean the saving Of a day to
our business men, and to those who have
large transactions, like the banks and larger
Wholesale houses. this is q great deal. The
value Of q day where large financial deals
are on foot amounts to considerable. l,
means also that our business men can have
their eastern mail delivered to them by the
middle of the forenoon, instead Of In the
afternoon, enabling them to give 1t their
attention before the banks close, and get
replies ready for the return Of the fast mail
on that same day.
THE proposed change, II carried into ef-
feet, will not necessitate any rearrangement
Of carrier schedules. A morning mail is re-
ceived now about the time the fast mail is
proposed to reach here, and the carriers
make a delivery In the business portions oi
the city at 10 o'clock, which they would
continue to do under the new time card
Most OF the banks and many Of the business
houses collect their own mail at the post.

come in the delivery Of the mail would be
that the bulk Of the days receipts would
