English Coal in Demand

The American demand for English

Rescued the Flag.

At Fredericksburg. on the day when
half the brigades of Meagher and Cald-
well lay on the bloody slope leading
mp to the Confederate intrenchments,
among the assaulting regiments vas
the Fifth New Hampshire, and it lost
1SG u of the 800 men who made the
charge. The survi TORS fell behind a
fence within reach of the Confederate
rife pits. Just before reaching it the
last one of the color guard was shot,
and the flag fell in the open.
A captain. Perry, instantly ran out
to rescue it and as he reached it was
shot through the heart. Another cap
tain, Murray. made the same attempt
and was also killed, and so was a third
Moore. Several private soldiers met a
like fate. They were all killed close to
the flag, and their dead bodies fell
across II another.
Taking advantage of this breastwork,
Lieutenant Nettleton crawled from be-
hind the fence to the colors, seized
them and bore back the blood won
trophy.

at the expense of Nevada's school fund.
But no difference whether it was a
good or bad business deal. If the
board of education has a right to deal
in the securities belonging to that
fund. we will have to stand it.
We think if the News will make
close inquiries it will find where a
lobbyist or two was employed by this
poor simpleton CD Kelley. at a mag
nifcent price, to help him in this trans
action.
The Silver State cares nothing for
the political effect this matter may
have, but it does believe that the state
has lost a large sum of money by an
unlawful transaction, and that it
should be investigated, and those i'm
plicated in it, whether by fraud or
ignorance held to account. If the
state board of education can speculate
in the securities of the school fund,
the board of state capitol commission
ers can speculate with the building
and furniture belonging to the state,
and we may expect to hear, that they
have exchanged it for a quartz mill
at Empire, or a COW ranch in Mason
valley, and have the News telling us
it was a good trade.

AN EXCHANGE OF SECURITIES

In an article headed, "A Plain Bust
ness DEAL the Carson News of Wed
nesday attempts to explain a trans
action between our state officials and
a man named Kelley. representing a
banking syndicate of Kansas City. Mo,
an account of which was published in
this paper on Monday last.
We are not aware that the state
board of education is authorized by
law to conduct a plain, or any other
kim of a business deal. with the
school funds of this state. From the
law, 1t appears that the board is au-
thorized ito invest all proceeds de-
rived from the sale of school lands
in United States bonds. or the bonds
of his state, or the bonds of other
states of the union" But no where
can we find any authority for the sale
or exchange of such securities. If the
state board of education has authority
to make a good business deal, it woulG
have authority to make a poor business
speculations in the securities belonging
to the school fund, might consume OF
lose everything in the fund.
The News says this transaction was
open and above board; that numerous
members of the legislature were
seled and invited ito participate in
what it terms a good business deal"
Why should these men be consulted,
If by law the state board of education
was authorized to sell the securities
belonging to the school fund, or to
exchange them for others?
The News doe not deny that Mr..
Kelley was present in Carson City fol
several weeks negotiating this deal,
nor does it explain to the public why
he, the representative of a banking
syndicate, should spend time n
money to make the state of Nevada
$500 But it leaves the impression
that the smooth members of the board
OF education have slipped up on this
poor, in~offensive fastener and bested
him $4,000 by an exchange of securi-
ties. All this sounds extremely silly.
and no one can believe that a man m
ployed by a banking syndicate would
come out here from the east and spend
the funds of his syndicate for the ben
eft of our school fund; no, you will
have to make some better explanation
than that.
The News says the four per cent
bonds belonging to the school fund,
would in the course of four years. pay
16 per cent interest. This would be
equal to 4 per cent a year, and yet
they tell US that h exchange was
made for bonds with an earning a
pacity of 2 95-lOO per cent per year,
and that the state has received in lieu
OF the 16 per cent, 10 per cent back
in premiums. If our mathematics are
right, from his statement the state
lost 6 per cent on $500, 900, which would
amount to $50, 600 and in lieu of bonds
that were earning 4 per cent per an
num-, they received bonds that will
earn but = 95-1O0 per cent per annum
From this statement it is hard for
any one to figure out where the STATE
has made anything in this transaction,
but it leads one TO conclude that this
nan Kelley was not the foo hat the
News would have US believe he was.
and instead of wasting $4,000 of his
syndieate's money. he made them a
sum ranging from $4,000 10 $3.50. 600.

Al ADin0aI Story For

The Gentleman Boar


There was once wild boar who was
dissatisfied with himself because the
people so often mistook him for pig.
81 am not pig, though do look
like one a little bit" he said to him
self, land I do not want people to
think that 1 am pig. But what am
I to do? 1 can't run around all the
time crying, Pm no pig; I'm boar!
II know just what I'll do" said he.
''I'll dress myself up and be gentle
man, and then people will not only not
call me pig, but they will see that
am fine fellow"
So away he went to hat store and
bought himself a black hat, and at the
tobacco shop he bought pipe and a
bag of tobacco. He put on his hat,
and he stuck the pipe in his mouth,
and, just as proud as peacock, he
sat down on a corner and waited for
people to come along and admire him.
But they came without admiring him.

asked as they passed. And, strange to

A COMMON ERROR.
The Use of the Word "Artificiai" In.
stead Of Limitation"

The Use of the Word "Artificiai" In
stead Of Limitation"
What is artificial" and what is
limitation ?"
People speak of an artificial bird,
an artificial palm, imitation leather,
and so on.
Now, a man who makes bird or
palm makes only an imitation Of
those objects.
A true artificial bird would be
alive to sing and fly. A true arti-
fetal palm would be able to grow.
Both of these things if they were
truly artificial would be exactly like
the living originals; indeed, they
would be alive.
Consequently it is entirely incor-
rect to speak of copies of living
things as being artificial unless
somebody should succeed some day
in really creating living thing.

Of them as artificial because they
are real diamonds, identical in all
respects with those found in the
diamond fields.
Chemistry has succeeded in pro-
ducing artificial sugar. Many min
eral waters are artificial, the car
bonic acid gas and other properties
being given to them by art. Wine
charged with the proper gas may be
called artificial champagne with
perfect accuracy. All these articles,
although they have been produced
by art, have the properties Of the
natural product.
But compositions made to take
the place Of stone are not artificial.
They are imitation stone. Manu-
featured dyes are not artificial.
They are imitation, for, while many
of them are just as fine as such nat
ural dyes as are obtained from
eochineal, lac and other insects and
from plants like the indigo, they are
entirely different in composition.
They do not reproduce nature; they
initiate it.

How Yeast Works.

The growth Of the yeast plant is
SO rapid that its individual cells can
be seen under the microscope to
spring up as buds upon the parent
cell and to grow to full size, these
presently to give off buds them
selves that expand in like manner.
In the case Of the yeast plant the
cells remain attached to each other
and thus form branches of elongat-
ed cells fixed end to end. In other
cases the buds drop off, SO that the
plant never takes any definite shape,
but remains as mass of free cells.
If new cell be formed every
minute by each of the cells present
you may calculate the number that
will be produced in an hour. Thus
at the end of the first minute there
will be two, in two minutes four, in
three minutes eight, and so on. In
five minutes there will be thirty
two; in ten minutes the number will
have increased to 1924, and in fif-
teen minutes there will be 32,768

a height of nearly 10000 feet. The
middle clouds keep at from about
10000 to $4,000 feet above the sur

seldom lower than 5000 or higher
than 1000 feet. The cumulus clouds
float with their lower surface at

Charcoal Is Good For the Teeth.

the breath, and, besides that, it
strengthens and whitens the teeth,

ache and gives the gums and lips an
attractive color" About as much
as can be placed on the point of a
knife should be rubbed gently into
the interstices Of the teeth on going

charcoal is its grittiness, and it
must be reduced as nearly as posi-
bic to an impalpable powder. Its
purifying qualities are invaluable,
