The Salvation Ratio.

Rev. G. H. Jones, Sunday evening
preached q sermon upon "Reno people
getting to Heaven" He did not commit
himself by an estimate as 10 the number
OF Renoites who would enter the pesrly
gates, but gave some excellent lunches as
TO the means OF getting there. The Jour-
nal reckons that Reno's salvation ratio
will average pretty fairly with that of the
other Nevads towns and will double dis
count that OF Carson City. especially dur
ing session Of Legislature. While we may
not reach the ratio OF 16 to 1, we would
hazard q small amount upon Nevada at
large making better showing on the
Recording Angels book than any Repub-
loan State in the Union n.-Reno Journal.

CAMELs In NEVADA.

In reply to "An Old Californian"
who inquired Of the Sacramento Bee Of
March 4th, In regard to the year Of
introduction OF camels into Nevada,
etc., etc., X. Jones OF Sacramento sub.
mits the following for his information !:
In 1861 an attempt was made to
domesticate the camel in Nevada.
Twelve were first employed to bring
salt from Teel's Marsh, in Esmeralda
county, to the Washoe silver mill, q
distance Of two hundred miles. They
were well suited to the labor, but on
the discovery OF nearer deposit Of
salt, the camels were turned loose to
shift for themselves. This they did,
increasing in number and condition.
The camels taken to Nevada in 1861
were part Of herd Of thirty-four which
was sold at Benica, California, by the
Government to Sam Mclaughlin. who
had been entrusted with their care.
They were brought to the United
States for use on the plains, and in
creased after their arrival.
In rs the band was taken to Arizona
with the exception Of pair placed on
ranch in Carson, where they in
creased to twenty-six in a few years.
1t was found impracticable to use them
on the highways, as horses were fright
ened by them, and suits for damages
followed, for which reason the Legis-
lature in 1875 prohibited their running
at large or being on the public high
ways. A part OF the herd was dis
posed Of to the Philadelphia Geological
Gardens,

The Secret Service has unearthed
another band of counterfeiters and
secured large quantity of bogus bills,
which are so cleverly executed that
the average person would never sus-
pect them OF being spurious. Things
OF great value are always selected by
counterfeiters for imitation, notably the
celebrated Hostetter's Stomach Bit
ters, which has many imitators but no
equals for indigestion, dyspepsia, con-
stipation, nervousness and general
debility. The Bitters sets things right
in the stomach. and when the stomach
is in good order it makes good blood
and plenty of it. In this manner the
Bitters get at the seat of strength and
vitality, and restore vigor to the weak
and debilitated. Beware OF counter
eiters when buying.

HOUR WHEN DEATH Is NEAREST

In one OF his books the late K. l..
Stevenson speaks Of a moment in the
early morning when a strange in
huence disturbs the sleep of men and
animals.
at is quite true" said physician
to whom the point was referred. "At
or about 3 o'clock every morning all
human beings and animals are nearer
to death than any other hour. At
that time cattle stir and moan in their
sleep and awaken partially or wholly,
as though disturbed. II you are sit
ting up you will feel unusually cold
and drowsy at this time. Three in the
morning is an honr that we doctors
are accustomed TO dread, for by far the
majority OF deaths among the sick
occur at about that time.
There are many explanations. My
own theory is that il is due to the ebb
and flow of the earth's magnetic cur
rents. 1t has been observed that at
about three in the afternoon q mans
physical forces reach their highest,
and il is simple inference that at the
corresponding hour of the morning the
lowest point OF the vital tide is
reached"

SENATOR JONES ON EXPANSION

Senator John p. Jones OF Nevada,
who used to mine at Nevada City,
Cal, has. it is said, made up his mind
that this country ought not to expand.
He told this story the other day to ex.
plain his position on this important
subject: A farmer, out In Nebraska,
he says, invested in some hogs paying
therefor three cents per pound. This
was in the Spring. In the Fall, the
farmer, after keeping and feeding his
hogs all Summer. took them to mar
ket and sold them for three cents a
pound-iust the price he had paid for
them.
"How in the devil do you expect to
make any money out OF raising hogs
at that rate?" said a neighbor who
learned Of the transaction.
