Golden Wedding Celebrated.

On Wednesday evening, Deem
Der 9TH, Mr.. and Mrs. D. Wilson GEL
ebrated the Fiftieth Anniversary of
their wedding at their home in the
upper end of Mason Valley. There
were present their three sons and
their families, their daughter, and a
host of relatives and friends-about
so in all. There were FIVE present
who attended Mr.. and Mrs. Wilson's
wedding in Missouri fifty years ago,
but only three had ever had the
pleasure of attending golden wed
ding before.
About II o'clock the young people
took possession of the house and dec
Grated it suitably for the occasion.
The tables were then set, and fairly
groaned with the good things that
had been provided to eat, and all
showed healthy appetites. They re-
ceived many useful and valuable
presents, and after few pleasing
remarks by Rev. 7. II. Nichols, and
songs, recitations and instrumental
music by the young folks, all de-
parted for their respective homes
agreeing they had spent a very
happy evening with Mr.. and Mrs.
Wilson, who are hale and hearty,
and seem much younger than peo-
pie of their years. 1t is to be hoped
that they will be spared so that
their friends may celebrate many
more pleasant anniversaries with
them.

A New York dispatch of the 9Th
says: 1.-THE Banking House of Kuhn
4 Co. announced today its purchase
from the Missouri Pacific Railway
Company of $25,ooo,ooo of four per
cent. forty-year gold bonds of that
road. This transaction was looked
upon as being important because of
its bearing upon the project of the
Goulds for the extension of their
system to the Pacific Coast through
the recently organized Western Pa
cific Railway, which is to run from
near Salt Lake City to San Fran
cisco, and for which a number of
Gould railroad men are directors.
While no announcement was made
of the purpose for which these funds
are raised, the belief is that it is to
further the Gould plans toward the
Pacific and Atlantic Coasts"

A Faithful DOG.
sumption.

Last week the Bodie Miner told
about faithful dog which had lost
its master and made the trip be-
tween Bodie and Hawthorne daily
in all kinds of weather, following
the stage, looking for his owner.
This happened about seven months
ago, and the dog has travelled over
5000 miles in his search for his mas
ter, who must have been more of a
dog than his faithful four-footed
companion. A few days ago the
faithful animal, which answered to
the name of Blucher," was found
dead in the snow some distance from
Bodie, having finally worn his life
out looking for the man who de-
serted him. The man should feel
proud of his treatment of so noble a
friend.

Big Barbecue.

When the collision occurred on
the G. & G. road on the Walker Lake
Reservation last week quite a num-
Der of cattle were killed, there being
several carloads of the animals on
one of the trains. The dead and
mutilated animals were hauled out
and dumped alongside of the track,
and later appropriated by the Piute
Indians thereabouts. The news
spread like wildfire that there was
to be a big barbecue, and tor two
weeks it has been almost impossible
to get buck in the valley to chop
wood or mahala to wash. They
have about devoured the beeves by
this time and are beginning to drift
back, looking slick, fat and sassy.

Some wholesale turkey stealing
has been going on during the week.
On Monday night Henry Baker was
relieved of 28 birds at his ranch, Ed.
Hernleben lost 81 fine, fat turkeys,
and Cyrus Logan lost over 100. A
couple of nights after Logan's place
was again visited and the balance of
about 400 birds taken. So far as
known there seems to be no trace as
to who did the stealing. They were
very clever at the work, however.

will, however, a man past middle

There is more Catarrh in this sec

diseases put together, and until the
last few years was supposed to be
incurable. For a great many years
doctors pronounced it local disease
and prescribed local remedies, and
by constantly failing to cure with
local treatment, pronounced it in
durable. Science has proven catarrh
to be a constitutional disease and
therefore requires constitutional
treatment. Halls Catarrh Cure,
