OUR OWN GOOD STATE.

@We OF Nevada are but handful,
scarcely enough in point Of numbers
to populate ward or two in a great
city. We are scattered abroad over a
State that in territory would include
New England and leave several good
sized potato patches around the Dor.
der.
"Why are we handful? Do we
lack the resources of nature to make
our State powerful commonwealth?
aHave we not soil equal to any in
the world?
@Is our climate less healthful than
those of frigid Maine and torrid Flor
ida?
@Do not half a score of rivers rush
down from the eternal snow fields to
water our broad acres?
"What do We lack to make our
State the home Of 100000 people?
aLet us publish our resources
broadcast and attract the population
VIZ oS IL ~ I'll I1CCus -1OSIlO
The Journal, INDEPENDENT and all
the other papers in the State have
been advertising its resources for
years, but still population does not
come. There seems to be something
lacking in the method OF advertising.
The newspapers reach few people,
comparatively, outside of the State.
The great mass of people in the East
are densely ignorant concerning the
resources OF Nevada. How to reach
the masses is the question to be
solved. This cannot be done through
the press alone. Other steps must
be taken by the people of Nevada
before the tide of immigration Is
turned this way. The press is dong
it's part OF the work, but the great
mass OF the people of the State seem
to be content with present conditions.
This lethargy must be overcome be.
p fore the resources Of the State can
be properly placed before the home
seekers Of the East.

FALLINGLEAVES,

Brief notice was given in last Sat-
urday's issue OF the San Jose Mer.
curry, OF the death, on September 9th,
OF Mrs. w. l. Plumb at her home in
San Jose. California.
BY large circle of friends and &C.
quaintances, this announcement was
read with pain and grief. The wheels
OF her life finally stood still at eleven
o'clock on that morning. No one
heard the call and without alarm she
crossed the narrow stream. The end
was peaceful-going to sleep like a
tired child. We think of her as hay
ing just commenced new life for she
has left this world of sin. Tho funer.
al Monday forenoon was largely at
tended. Music was rendered, with
tender effect: "Asleep in Jesus" and
Nearer, My God to Thee"
Her brillanicy, origin atty, and fer
tility of ideas we're such that she was
continually surprising even those
who knew Der best, by some flash Of
wit, or bright eloquent fancy, She
was always jovial, full of animation
and courage for the future; happy in
the present-the life and wit of every
company she entered. 1t seems in
credible now that the flowers of her
youth, then rich in golden promise,
should have been blghted by the
chill frosts Of death, ere they could
attain to full fruition.
"Call not back the dear departed,
Anchored safe where storms are DER,
On the border lands we left her,
Soon to meet and part no more.
Far beyond this world of changes,
Far beyond this world Of care,
We shall find our missing loved one,
In our Fathers mansions fair.
A FRIEND.

American Humor.

Here is one Of the bits Of american
humor" that pleased the women's con-
gress in London. An English paper
says: women still talk about their
children; they used to discuss their all
ments; they now discuss their educa-
ton, and in theory they are magnificent
in their methods. At the recent con-
gress an American delegate listened
with great gravity to theories on child
ish culture. and then made renl hit
by remarking in nm inimitahle Ameri-
can manner: We'll, it seems to me that
you ladies will have our children in spec

light than Richard Mansfied's. This
week, appearing at the Providence
opera house Monday and Tuesday
evenings. April IL and Is. Mr.. Mans
field will present "Cyrsno de Berger
ac." In which character he has created
a sensation greater than any other ar
tist OF his generation. He has framed
this personatlon with a production that
is spoken OF as being artistically and
pictorially more elaborate and sumptu-
Gus than any ever before given a play.
Some idea OF the scale OF Mr.. Mans
fields artistic enterprise may be gath
cred from the consideration of the fact
that there are in his travelling company
nearly $50 people; that the scenery and
furniture and baggage occupy over 4
baggage coaches. MIR. Mansfield and
his organization travel everywhere by
special train, Everywhere that he has
presented his latest creation he has met
with success greater than any ever ac-
corded him, or any other artist. The
curtain will rise at 1:i5 upon Mr.. Mans
fields performance. Carriages may be
ordered shortly after II. This hour
prevailed during the rum at the Garden
theatcr. New York city. and every
whore else that Mr. Mansfield has this
season presented "Cyrano de- Berger
ac' It enables those living remote
from the thcatcr, in the suburbs or i'm
adiaccut cities. To- reach the late trains
