THE result of the election means
that good times will prevail in
Nevada. The confidence of the
people has not been shaken. The
State is forging ahead on all lines.
Her resources are becoming known
to the outside world and money is
coming in for investment as it
never did before. The growth of
Nevada will be healthy and rapid
from this time on.

THE Hearst papers and the Re-
no Journal, which were making
such ridiculous claims for Parker
before election, must now admit
that they were mighty poor figur-
ers or that they were trying tC
fool the people, either of which is
not very creditable.

AFTER THE BATTLE.

The greatest battle of the bal
lots in the history of the country
was fought at the polls last Tues
day, and the result is the greatest
Republican victory ever recorded.
Theodore Roosevelt has carried
ever northern and western State,
and has broken into the ranks of
the "Solid South" by capturing
Missouri. Congress will also be
overwhelmingly Republican. 1t
is a great indorement of the pres
ent administration, and means that
for four years to come, at least,
the country will enjoy the same
general prosperity that it has in
the past four years.
In Nevada the Republican gain
has been unprecedented. Roose-
welt has carried the State by two
thousand votes or over, which
means that Nevada is safely back
in the Republican ranks so long
as that party shows the disposition
to do as we'll as it has been doing.
There is no doubt that George S.
Nixon, the Republican candidate,
will be our next United States
Senator, and it is more than likely
that Jim Yerington has been elect
ed Congressman. This vote is
very close and there are yet sever
al remote precincts to hear from,
but Yerington will probably win
by hundred votes or more. The
balance of the Republican ticket
has won with possibly the except
ion of Starrett for University Re-
gent, who is being crowded closely
by Mr.. Boyle.
Lyon county has given Roose-
welt majority of over two hun
bred and fifty. She has also elect
ed at least one out of three on the
Legislative ticket and has given
the Republican Congressman
fair majority. This is pretty good
for the county that for some years
past has been next to the banner
Silver-Democratic county in the
State. So far as county officers
are concerned the vote shows that
the people did want change in
some places. We believe that the
officers now elected will give the
county a clean, capable admins
tration.
So far as the TIMES is concerned
politics will bother us very little
for two years to come. Our policy
will be as heretofore, to advocate
and advance the interests of Lyon
county, and particularly the great
agricultural resources of Mason
Valley, which some day, not many
years hence, are bound to be de-
veloped to such an extent that the
valley will be one of the garden
spots of America.
The TIMES has no disposition to
rub the raw places on the backs
of its enemies but would rather
go more than halfway towards
harmonizing all interests and join
ing in the one main issue-the
good of the country.

TURTLE FLESH.

The abandonment of the Animals
Gives the Worst Meat.
No one really knows how large tur-
tie may grow, but certainly there does
not appear to be much il any exagger-
alton attached to the statements of
Pliny and SHabo, who, describing the
chelonophagi Of the Red sea, say that
they utilized the shells of the turtles
they had eaten as roofs to their huts
and boats for their feeble voyages
Strange to say, the handsomest tur-
tie, the hawks bill variety (Chelone i'm
bricata), furnishes the worst flesh, be-
ing SO strongly favored with musk as
to be almost uneatable. This peculiar
ity would seem to point to diet of
squid since these mollusca are exceed
ingly musky. But it may not be out Of
place to remark here that turtle flesh,
even of the best sorts, is not NICE AS
Sam Weller's pieman hoarsely whis-
pered, ITS the seasoning as does II"
A diet of turtle steaks or Of hashed
turtle or of turtle soup, au naturel,
would soon sicken any one but saw
age. For sixpence or its equivalent in
most of the West India island towns
one can get heaped plate of turtle
steak with bread or jams or sweet po-
tatoes I'D lib. But I never knew even
. hungry sailor who wanted more than
one meal week of it, for all its cheap
ness. The fact is that in the cult of
turtle soup we are following "a long
way off, it is true) the example set by
the Chinese, who love gelatinous soups
and pay fabulous prices for the nests
Of the sea swallows, the holothuria, or
sea slug and the sharks fms because
Of their gelatinous qualities. - Frank

Queer Drunken Manias.
An English sheriff who died some
years since kept record of the curl
Gus cases Of drunkenness that came
under his observation. Several habit
ual cases had developed odd manias.
One woman who had been arrested 167
times for drunkenness in twenty eight
years, had a mania for breaking win
dows when she was intoxicated An
old soldier, suffering from a wound In
the head, always stole Bibles when he
was tipsy. Another man stole nothing
but spades, while one woman's fancy
ran to shaw,s and another's to shoes.
4 man named Grubb was imprisoned
seven times for stealing tubs, although
there was nothing In his line of life to
make tubs particularly desirable to
him. .

over 400 years old and has two win

pane Of glass having been inserted in
Z hole in the roof above it. There are
only eight pews, Of which seldom more
than two are used. The little bell,

MoHAMMEDANs AND DOCS.

Ehey Take Particular Palms Not TO,

In Egypt dogs are never permitted to
enter the dwelling Of Mohammedan,
and If one is found in a mosque he is
Immediately put to death. - -
In consequence Of this excommunica-
ton from the society which this ami
NAL seems 50 instinctively disposed to
cultivate, Egyptian dogs live, for the
most part, in the open air, feeding up
on garbage and any other filth that
chance throws in their way. Yet they
are found to be faithful protectors of
the property and even persons Of the
very men by whom they are thus de-
spitefully treated, although, Sonini re-
marks, 1t is extremely curious to see
the pains taken by a Mussulman and
q dog when they happen to meet to
avoid coming in contact with each
other. Notwithstanding this state Of
persecution, dogs are remarkably
numerous In the towns Of Egypt. The
species is large one, about the size
and make Of the greyhound. AS a
proof of the Mohammedan prejudice
against this useful animal, It Ia suffi-
Client to state that they regard the
terms Christian and dog as synony-
mous-both, of course, in the most OPP
probrious sense. =, l*l
AS singular contrast for their dis
like for dogs, the Egyptians have ever
held cats in greatest veneration, and in
ancient time even worshiped them.
And historians tell us that Bubastis
and Atribes, two towns in Egypt, the
former a votary Of cats and the latter
Of mice, contracted on that account 50
strong an andpathy to each other that
the inhabitants were never known to
intermarry, although only few miles
asunder. In some parts of India, too,
we are told, they have q similar rever-
ence for grimalkin, as the only crimes

THE COSSACKs.
TavOrite Camp story Through
Which Generals Are Criticized.

4 Fsvorite Camp story Through
Which Generals Are Criticized.
Unlike other Russian soldiers, the
Cossacks are very intelligent in mill
tary matters and do not hesitate to
criticise their generals freely among
themselves. They have bitter tongues
and a genius for satire. There Is ia.
vorite story which has been told in
Cossack camps for generations. 1t ID
handed down from father to son, the
names being changed to fit the mill
tary commanders of the day. Freely
translated, it runs something like this:
The war god of Russia was asleep
In heaven one day when he was awak-
ened by the confused clamor of two
hosts in battle on the earth beneath.
He shouted to the Angel Gabriel: ;.E
'Look out and see what my Cos.
sacks are doing" -,...~. 4,
"They are fighting the Turks, and
Prince Potemkin is leading them"
"Oh, that's all right" said the war
god. 'He's good man."
So the deity went asleep again, only
10 be awakened by another turmoil.
"What's thatT' he asked sleepily.
"They are fighting the Turks again
under Suwarow." o..
"He's a fine fellow. They'll do all
right"
And so the story goes on intermina-
bly, around the campfire, each man
adding the name of his favorite com.
mander until at last one of them
makes the Angel Gabriel mention the
name Of some general who happens to
be regarded by the Cossacks as duff
fer. Then the next man makes the
war god reply in accents of great
alarm:
'Oh, my beloved Cossacksi They
must be perishing under that man! It
= time I interfered. Hasten, Gabriel,
and bring me my long boots, for
must 60 down at once and save them. y

Two Winter Games.

Have you ever played stir the
mush?" Have one chair too few. Some
one stands in the middle of the room,
holding n stout stick, and the others
walk around her saying, Stir the mush,
stir the mush,'' and she pretends to
stir very hard with the stick, continu-
ing to do so for some time. After
awhile, when no one is expecting it, she
knocks three times on the floor with
the stick and then drops it and joins
her companions, who at this signal run
for a seat. Whoever is left without Il
chair is the next to stir the mush.
King and queen is the name of an
other game. Have two rows of chairs,
the boys sitting in one row with king
at their head and the girls facing them
with a queen at the end. The boys are
given even numbers and the girls odd
ones. When all are ready the king
calls number, the boy who bears that
number starts up, the queen immedi-
ately calls one of her numbers, and the
girl then chases the boy around the COM
pany. If she succeeds in catching him
before he gets to the king he pays a
forfeit; if not they take their seats and
the queen calls for number.

Pocket Furnaces.

Curious hand furnaces are used in
China during the winter months, chief
ly in the north, when the fire, in place
of being in the house, as we have it, is
carried about the person beneath the
thickly padded cotton garments or in
the hand. At times it is placed be-
meath the chair on which one is seated.
This contrivance, resembling the char
coal pans formerly used before the
days of the pit coal by the HEREFORD
shire straw plaiters, was first intro
duced to our notice when resting at a
village in the Fukien province, which,
before we had Investigated the cause,
we noted as place remarkable for the
deformity of its inhabitants, old men
and women with strange swellings pro-
jecting in the most unaccOuntable
places. Our speculations were, how
ever. speedily set at rest and the mat
ter satisfactorily explained by an old
gentleman, who removed his greatcOat
and disclosed a small copper furnace
secured round his waist with Il band
and neatly covered with basket work.
This artificial mode of heating the body
is only resorted to in time of extreme
cold. as on ordinary occasions the peo-
pie deem their thick clothing Il suffi-
cient protection during winter.-GOlden
