GOV. sADLER's EXPLANATION.

A couple Of weeks ago the SENTINEL
published a few extracts from a COM
munication which appeared in the
Wells Herald over the signature of
Hon. Robt. E. Skaggs, an Assembly
man from Elko county, in which he
severely criticised Governor Sadler for
vetoing a constitutional amendment
passed by the last Nevada Legislature.
Since the article above referred to
appeared in the SENTINEL we have seen
q copy OF the Governors veto. in
which he gives his reasons for exer-
cising his Gubernatorial prerogative
and returning the measure without
his approval. In brief, he says:
"The resolution presents two distinct
subjects, viz: Assessment and taxation
Of patented mines, and the assessment
and taxation Of mortgages. Both SUBJ
jects are treated without respect to
uniformity as now expressed in Article
l, Section 10, which is to be amended.
All property should be assessed at its
true cash value; patented mine may
not be worth five hundred dollars and
should not be arbitrarily assessed for
that amount. The joint rules OF the
Senate and Assembly are recognized
by the Court as law. Section 8 of said
rules reads as follows:
Joint and Concurrent Resolutions
addressed to Congress. or either House
thereof, or to the President OF the
United States, or the heads of any OF
the National Departments, or pro-
posing amendments to the State Con.
stitution. shall be treated in all respects
as bills
81 have therefore acted upon the res
olution in the same manner as il a
legislative bill was under considera-
tion."

DEGREES SOCIETY GIRL.
Professor Clark of Northwestern
says she Ii n Parasite TO BE
Avoided.

Prof. j. Scott Clark, speaking to
his class in English literature at
Northwestern university the other
day, said the merits of present day
women in no way equaled those of
the women of the day of his mother
and grandmother. His comment was
directed against the society girl
THE society girl is a parasite -
said Prof. Clark. ''She lives on her
father, and in return she gives linn
nothing. She is of no benefit to the
world. and there is no need of our
keeping such a weight with us
Continuing, he told of the failures
which society women make as man
ayers of a household. and said they
were unable to fill the domestic re-
auirements necessary to make the
h ,ome an abode of comfort. "They
toll not, neither do they spin, yet
Solomon in all his glory was not
arrayed like one of these" quoted the
professor, AMI he continued:
"The young man who seeks a So
ciety girl for a wife is on the wrong
track. May God help him that mar
ries one of them, for he is tying a
milestone around his neck"
A report in a Chicago newspaper
that Prof. Clark had advised students
not to marry college bred women was
repudiated by the professor as abb
surd and false. He has "coeds" in his
classes and has no such low opinion
of them as was indicated by the er-
roneous uuotation from him.

LAUGHTER AND LONG LIFE.
Cheerful Persons Have the Chance
of Becoming Old.

Cheerful Persons Have the Chance
of Becoming Old.
1t may be that some enthusiastic and
laborious German statistician has al
ready accumulated figures bearing up
on the question of length of life and
It's relation to the enjoyment thereof;
If so, we are unacquainted with his re-
suits and yet have very decided no
tion that people who enjoy life, cheer
full people are also those to whom long
life Is given. Commonplace though
this sounds, there Is no truth more
commonly ignored in actual everyday
existence. "Oh, yes, Of course, worry
shortens life, and the contented people
live to be DID," we are all ready to say,
and yet how many people recognize the
duty of cheerfulness? Most persons
will declare that If man Is not nat
urally cheerful he cannot make him
self so. Yet this Is far from being the
case, and there Is many a man who Is
at present a weary burden to his rela-
tives, miserable through the carking
care of some bodily ailment perhaps or
some worldly misfortune, who, II he
had grown up into the idea that to be
cheerful under all circumstances was
one Of the first duties Of life, might
still see a pleasant enough world
around him. Thackeray truly remark
ed that the world is for each Of us
much as we show ourselves to the
world. If we face 1t with a CHEEKY ac-
ceptance we find the world fairly full
Of cheerful people glad to see US. II
we snarl at it and abuse 1t we may be
sure Of abuse in return. The discon-
tented worries Of morose person may
very likely shorten his days, and the
general justice Of natures arrange
ment provides that his early departure
should entail no long regrets. On the
other hand, a man who can laugh
keeps his health and his friends are
glad to keep him. To the perfectly
healthy, laughter comes often. Too
commonly, though, as childhood is left
behind, the habit fails, and half
smile Is the best that visits the thought
lined mouth Of the modern man or wo-
man. People become more and more
burdened with. the accumulations Of
knowledge and with the weighing re-
sponsibilities Of life, but they should
spare time to laugh. Let them never
forget, moreover, and let 1t be a medi-
cal mans practice to remind them that
"a smile sits ever serene upon the face
Of wisdom."-London Lancet.

THE NAMING OF FARMs.-We wish
that every farm in Maine would be
named. says the Lewiston Journal.
This is not a mere matter Of sentiment
by any means; but 1t Is strictly busi-
ness. The man whose farm is known
by some name Is certain to take a
greater interest in it's products and
conduct all of his operations on a bet
ter plan. On every farm there is GER
tain to be some popularity that will
suggest a name. A spring of pure wa
ter, a grove Of oak or maple trees or
something else Of a similar nature will
give 1t a local flavor. Then paint this
name on the end Of the barn facing
the road. Let it be where every pass
erby can see it. Your farm will then
soon become known far and wide and
will aid you in thousand ways. Be-
sides, how much more dignified 1t Is to
be spoken of as the proprietor Of Oak
Grove farm than to be alluded to as
Jim Jones. By all means name your
farms, and it will make you all better
farmers.

The next day. 11th Of September, the
detachment passed through the town
Of Chibarllnskoe.
At that time an incident occurred
which was to have very serious conse-
quences.
The night had come. The Tartar
horsemen. having had a halt. were
more or less drunk. They were about
to continue their journey.
Nadia, who up TO that time. as though
by O miracle. had been respected by
those soldiers. was insulted by one OF
them.
Michael Strogoff had been able to see
neither the insult nor the insulting per.
son, but Nicholas had seen for him.
Then quietly. without having reflect
ed, without perhaps having any con.
sciousness Of his action. Nicholas made
straight for the soldier. and before the
latter could make any movement to
stop him. snatching a pistol from the
pommel of his saddle. he discharged 1t
full at his breast.
The officer who had command of the
detachment ran up Immediately at the
sound Of the pistol.
The horsemen were about to cut Mich.
olas In pieces, but at a sign from the
officer they bound, him fast with cords,
they flung him acrOsSa horse. and the
detachment set of at a gallop.
The cord which tied Michael Strogof,
gnawed by him. broke at an unexpect'
ed dash of the horse, and Its rider, half
drunk. carried away In a quick run,
did not even perceive 1t.
Michael Strogoff and Nadia found
themselves alone on the road.

Tricks of SmuESlers.

A recent official examination of the
monuments marking the boundary line
between Canada and the United States,
states the Ottawa Citizen, showed
many of them to have disappeared
along the frontier of New York state.
AS these monuments consist of iron
pillars, indestructible and not easily
dislodged, their absence suggested de-
liberate removal. A prominent Cana
da customs official, when asked to ac-
count for the fact, said:
1t Is true these monuments were
erected several years ago, and some OF
them may have disappeared from nat
ural causes; but am inclined to cred
it the wiles of smugglers with having
caused the disappearance Of most OF
them. You probably have no idea Of
the tricks to which the free trade fra
ternity resort along the frontier. They
give us no end of trouble. There are
many places where stores, and even
hotels, are built directly on the bound
airy line, part of the building being In
the United States and part in Canada.
There is a hotel at a place called Trout
River, in the eastern townships, which
stands on the boundary. the line pass
Ing through the barroom, so you can
stand in New York state and get your
drink in Canada. There are stores
with one counter in Canadian territory
and another in the United States.
There is no law here to prevent the
erection of buildings on the boundary
line. In Europe they won't even allow
roads to run across the frontier except
at certain authorized places. All we do
in Canada to curb frontier contraband
enterprise is to inflict a heavy penal
