The Nuns Hesddress.

Very few persons, says a French pa

which so many nuns wear and which
hides so much of their faces. 1t was
formerly the custom for converts to
send nuns to the various cities and
towns for the purpose of collecting
aims. and, as q rule. two nuns. one old
and the other young. went to each
place. They wore small caps and were
popularity known as Swallows of
Lent"
On a certain Ash Wednesday two of
them succeeded in obtaining admission
to the kings palace In Paris. and,
though the monarch and his courtiers
were at dinner, they did not hesitate to
solicit aims from them. One of the
nuns was very pretty, and the young

bold glances at her that she blushed

PACIFIC COAST LEAGUE.
Strike in POGO Tempo

Glib Briggs last evening received a
letter from the men at the POGO
TEMPO ground bristling over with
good news. The owners of this sill
ver-lead property have thought for
some time that things were coming
their wav and have been working ir
an enormous lot OF ore.
Now, however. it seems that a
change in the vein has occurred ane
the material is exceedingly rich, in
fact considerably more so than any
he-etofore found in the mine.
The last strike was made at a
depth of 152 feet, at which point eros
cutting on the ledge has been in prog
ress several days. The rich ore lies
on tie sootwall. and the first time
either wall has been reached was o.
this occasion.
The property is under bond for a
sac to California people, represented
by Mr.. Livingston. and the new strike
while 1t makes the owners unwilling
10 sell, will probably make the would
be purchasers all the more keen on
closing the deal; so il is likely that
something will be doing in POGO
TEMPO territory before many days.
The stock of the mine is almost en-
tirely held by Carson people.-Appeal.
