New Postage Stamps.

The postage stamp clerks say that
women do not like the big new
stamps which the Government ia
trying to sell them. They arc awl;-
ward looking on the small enyeIopes
used for cards or notes, and notes and
cards form the bulk OF most women's
correspondence in these days. When
servants arc sent for stamps they are
usually instructed to ask for the
small, red, George Washington vari-
ETY., Or even the ugly green Benjamin
Franklins rather than tho big new
sort Which leaves 80 little space on n
small envelope for the sprawlIne
handwriting Of the smart woman.
The same women who frown upon
the new stamps place two one-cent
stamps on their letters rather than
put red stamp on the corner OF
their Wedgwood-blue envelopes.

The Missing AssembIyman.

The absence of Assemblyman
Gillespie of Story county from the
meeting of the Assembly Tuesday
has led to great deal of speculation
and all sorts OF rumors and renorts
are floating around Carson. He was
IN the Assembly chamber twenty
minutes before that body WAS called
to order aud assisted the Sergeant at
arms III placing chairs. His wife was
IN the chamber with him and there
was no indication OF what was soon
to happen. About ten minutes be-
fore II o'clock his wife was called
out and she and Gillespie left the
Capitol together. No one suspected
anything until the roll was called and
ne failed to respond Paul of White
Pine county demanded call of the
house and it was ordered by Yea and
nay vote of 16 to 13. The Sergeant
at arms closed the doors and the roll
was again called with no response
from Gillespie. The Sergeant at
arms was then ordered to bring the.
missing member to the bar of the
House. He was gone about twenty
minutes when he returned and re-
ported that he had been to Gillespie's
room and had looked for him around
town, but was unable to find him.
Paul then moved recess which was
voted down. He then moved to adj
journ which was declared ont of
order by Speaker Allen. Further
proceedings under the call were then
dispensed with by vote Of II to II
Nominations were then made and the
election proceeded as heretofore
published. All sorts of rumors as 10
Gillespie's whereabouts are floating
around Carson. If you strike the
right crowd they will tell you that
Gillespie has gone to California to
take charge Of fr?m purchased for
him by Mr.. Newlands. Another will
tell you that Sam Jones, brother of
the Senator, drove him to Wadsw orth
or Reno and put him on the west
bound train enroutc to work in
mine somewhere in California.
Rumor has it that he took with him
considerable coin of the realm, the
amount being generally placed at
$4,000.
The Storey county delegation look
upon the deserter with suspicion and
are not very anxious to SEQ him in
his seat again. AS Gillespie does not
know how much he 10 missed, he will
probably remain ont Of reach OF his
constituents.
