Cheap Coal.

1t is said that the Central Pacific
railroad company proposes 70 lay down
coal at Dayton and Mound House for

people of the Comstock, as for about a
dollar addition they could purchase
the same here, and Green River GOA
at 50 per ton would revolutionize the
price of fuel on the Comstock. Re

1t is to be hoped that Carson will get

The Bryan meeting in Baltimore
on Tuesday night was tremendous
success. Therain doubtless kept thous-
ands away aud it was we'll they did
not come as the Hall where the meet
ing WAS held could not accommodate
one-fourth of the crowd. Through.
out the audience could be seen lib
eral sprinkling of Harford's faithful
who had hraved the elements to catch
a glimpse of their leader. Mr.. Bryan's
trip throughout tho State was one
continuous ovation. Among those
who accompanied him were Messrs.
George L. VanBibber, William s.
Forwood, Jr. and Thomas H. Robin
son. They spoke in glowing terms of
Mr.. Bryan and were charmed with
his pleasing manner.
Mr.. William L. Cooley addressed
the overflow at the Bryan meeting IL
Baltimore Tuesday night. He spok"
to audience of eight or ten thousand
people and was received with ire
mendous applause. He made most
excellent address and was the receipt
ent of many congratulations from his
friends who heard him.

SERVANTS MUST BE GRATEFUL.
Servants Who Receive Tips should

Walters in the most exclusive Of the res
taurants have come to look upon the tip as

bill, when. of course, the waiter is obse-
quious in the extreme, and generally Of
fensively so when the bill is OF an excep-
tiOnally large denomination. There is now
no Thank YOU for tip in silver. The
waiter merely grabs 1t as a thing that
belongs to him.
Naturally there has come a revolt on
the part of the diners, and several walters
in fashionable resorts have been reeeiv-

week or two. Men have begun TO call wal

Then these men. who only demand that
a waiter shall at least profess to be thank
full for the gift. have quietly pOcketed the
coin after telling the waiter that as he
had neglected to return thanks for the
pour boire he was. therefore, not entitled

This plan has worked well, though it
has made the walters who have thus lost
their tips through lack Of courtesy sUrly
