THEODORE PRICE ON COTTON.
Denies That He Has Changed His
 Views on the Market

NEW YORK, Sept l6.-The public are again cautioned against the acceptance of false rumors circulated by interested parties to the effect that have been selling cotton or have changed my views upon the market. Such reports untrue.
 The weekly Government report. issued today. indicates a crop much below that of last year,
 Mir. Samuel Kitkman, a well known crop authority. publishes estimate of the crop in today's New Orleans papers of 10. 200, 900. The Galveston News today publishes a report indicating a shortage of at feast o per cent. in the Texas crop compared with last year. Such evidence cannot be d!Sregarded if this crop of cotton is not over TO- 500. 900 bales and it looks if it may he considerably less I regard 10 cents as commercial cer- tairty for cotton.

SOME NEVADA HAPPENINGS.

In his weekly letter to the Tonopah
Bonanza from Carson, under date Of
February 20, All Doten has the follow
ing:
The great smallpox scare at Reno has
somewhat abated but its evil effects re-
main. There were less than a dozen
cases, all of mild form like vorioloid, or
as the newspapers called it. "Manila
Itch" Those quarantined at the pest
house are having good time at the pnb-
lie expense, and 60 out prospecting, or
rabbit hunting, as they see fit. But the
Board OF Health pronounce it rank small
pox, demanding wholesale vaccination
so the doctors are just arbitrarily jabbing
the virus into everybody they can lay
hands on at dollar head, whether they
like it or not.
The arrival Of Hon. A. c. Cleveland in
town day before yesterday stirred up the
Senatorial question considerably, as Cleve
is supposed to be on it like a bay steer.
he is looking ten years younger, and in
con1ition TO put up a first-class scrap,
political or otherwise. Jones is quies-
cent, and Newlands is working, but it
can't be denied that the gentleman from
White Pine is looked upon with much
popular favor for the U. S. Senatorship,
if he will have it. Republicans say he
must run, must come into the fight and
win out sure. But somebody else may
come in before long to be the standard
bearer Of Republican victory.
The citizens OF Reno pause in scratch
ing their Manila itch long enough to stir
up their grand project OF big street fair
next Fourth of July. They have the va
ious committees already appointed, and
are going to have Midway Plaisance and
other arrangements that will discount
Carson's brilliant success on the last
Fourth. They started in early and will
run it for all it is worth, itch or no itch.

STATE NEWS ITEMS.

Attorney Thomas Wren OF Reno has
been engaged to settle up the estate Of
the late Harry Tonkin OF Virginia City.
Lyon county's tax rate for this year is
81 80 on each 800 valuation. One dollar
of this is for county and the balance for
State.
The Tonopah Bonanza has a new Of
fee in course OF construction, and some
new machinery on the way from San
Francisco to add to its plant.
Rev. Father Butler OF Austin has gone
to Tonopah to remain permanently. Rev.
Father Sheehan OF Salt Lake City will
fill his place in the Austin Catholic
Church.
A wide ledge carrying gold. silver and
lead in paying quantities, is reported to
have been lately discovered near Sa-
dorus district, ten miles north OF Col
conda, New.
Bishop Whitaker, formerly of Nevada.

some time and on the advice of his ply
sician has gone to Coronado for the Win

fame language while at the dining tables.
A contract has been let for the recon-
struction OF the Riverside mill recently
burned at Reno. The mill will have q

silver ores Of Great value.

A Helena, Montana. dispatch OF Feb
ruary 20 says: The United Smelling
& Refining Company's smelter at East
Helena has received shipment Of silver
ore which is believed to be the richest
ever made in the State. The ore assays
$4,000 to the ton, and is approximately
one-quarter silver. The shipment is
made from mine at Niehart. The strike
is said to be phenomenal, great quanti-
ties OF the ore being found, and almost
maleable enough to cut with knife.

All of the food supplies, except beef for

ss they cannot compete with California

the Southern Pacific Company in thus
depriving merchants of this State from
deriving any profits from the presence OF
from 5000 to 5000 laborers, through the
free transportation OF supplies from CAL

FREE TO EVERYONE.
A Priceless Book Sent Free for the
Asking.

There be books and books" some
edifying. others entertaining, and still
others instructive. The average man is
so busily engaged in the labor OF
money-rnaking that he has little time
ana less inclination for books which
instruct: hence when he feels out of
sorts. either he gives no heed to Ma
ture's warning, or he consults physi-
clan. at an expense which little
knowledge would have enabled him to
avoid. There is probably no COM
rlaint upon which the public is so little
informed, as hemorrhoids, or piles;
this little book tells all about their ma
ture. cause and cure: it treats OF the
different forms of blind. bleeding, itch
ing ana protruding piles. describes
their symptoms, and points the way to
"a cure so simple and inexpensive, that
anyone can understand ana apply. The
importance of promptness and thor
oughness Is vital, for the disease will
not cure itself, and Nature, alone, un-
aided. will rot accomplish a cure. while
the consequences are too painful for
detailed description. You are told how
piles originate the reason for their
appearance usually being that some
of the rules of correct living have been
violated, ana (what is more to the
poinD how you may rid yourself of
this bane of human existence. All
affections of the rectum are treated in
simple plain language, so that all may
! understand. and learn how the cause
may be removed. Many people suffer
from piles. because after trying the
numerous lotions, ointments and salves
that are on the market. without relief,
they come to the conclusion that Il
surgical operation is the only thing left
to Try. and rather than submit to the
shock ard risk to life of an operation.
