Catholic Fair q Grand Success.

The ladies' placed i'll charge of the
Catholic fair deserve the highest praise
for the grand success of their entertain
ment. In was an notable event in the
history of Goldtield and will linger for
years to come in the memory OF the
people. Ladies' Aid Hall never pre-
scented such an attractive appearance.
The candy and lemonade booth in charge
of Miss Clark, Miss Curley and Miss
Fletcher, was admired by all and well
~patronized. This booth Melted a neat
sum. The Nevada, California, Montana
and Colorado booths. presided over by
Mrs. NJ. W. Jelinek, Mrs. Ipswich,
Mrs. Page and Mrs. P. j. Donahue, re-
spectively, were tastefully decorated
and reaped a rich harvest.
The contest for the diamond ring was
very exciting. Quite a number Of prom
inent ladies in Goldfeld were in the
race, but Miss Murphy won the coveted
prize. The gold watch for the most pop
ular man was won by the genial proprie-
tor of the Northern Saloon, Mr.. Richard,
and the beautiful ~gold-headed cane vas
won by the popular young physician,
DIR. O'Connor.
The two dolls, donated by Mrs. r.
Page and Mrs. NJ. w. Jelinek, We're con-
tested for-the former by Marion Muth
and Louisa Elliott; the latter by Winnie
McGuggan and Clara Campbell. The
little ones ooh quite an interest, and
worked hard in their innocent way to
win the prize. Marion Muth was the
successful competitor for the doll
donated by Mrs. Page, and Winnie Nc
Guggan won the doll donated by Mrs.
Jelinek. Many valuable articles too
numerous to mention were ratified Off
and proudly carried home by the lucky
winners. John Hamill, proprietor OF
the Frisco Cafe, won a ladies gold ring,
and insinuates his intention to utilize it
in the zeal future. This announcement
has started the ladies of Goldfeld a
guessing. Among the visitors from the
the outside we had the pleasure OF
noticing Frank Golden, George Wing
field and many others, who were well
pleased with operations and were gener-
Gus to a fault.
The amount taken in at the fair was
over 1880. Further particulars will be
announced after the next meeting of the
ladies in charge.

sonal care and a knowledge OF health
conditions will nearly always give
immunity from disease. There is no
healthier town in Nevada than Gold
field, and it is too bad to have con-
trary opinions 90 out.
The Catholic Fair was a great sue
cess. The most popular young lady
was chosen after an exciting contest
in which George Wingfield, with a
little bell, rang out success for the
other belle. After the selection the
most popular young lady became the
object OF several unpopular criticisms
from those of her sex who had other
views. Which reminded an old gem
eral OF Kentucky rye, that in the
course OF a long and changeful career
he had heard but two ome speak
kindly OF another conan
"You see," said the old stager, as
he folded his hands comfortably
across his lower chest, tits this way.
Men have many varied vocatlons.
Their life work takes them in many
devious ways. But women are all
engaged in the same vocation, there

follows that all ONE are inimical

pectantly about him.

G. q. Rice got extremely busy last
week. He hunted up a box Of money
and took a jovial crowd to Rhyolite.
There were II in the party. They
had three teams and three expert
drivers. They had mining experts
and brokers and newspaper men.
John S. Cook took his bank in his
pocket and opened Il e. one in Rhy
olite. Ray Richards was the best
shot in the crowd. At revolver prac-
tice he hit the corks of more beer
bottles than did Mr.. Mitchell. Mr..
Rice saw that all were well fed and
provided with good cigars. That
party was a success.

1t Is Good to Think.
II is good to think OF your mothers knee
Whence YOU stepped your tottering way;
1t is good to think of the look you'd see
As she sprang from the chair to be your stay.
1t is good to think of the crannied stream,
Where YOU splasled and ducked Of an afternoon;
1t is good to think of the lofts wide beam,
And the circus that ended all too soon
Here, as a man, in this desolate plain,
1t is good to think.
1t is good to think of your first long pants;
1t is good to think of your fathers pride;
1t is good to think of cousins and aunts
Who hid their own fault to be your guide.
1t is good to think of the little girl
Who was queen of the house across the street,
Of the short blue frock and the yellow curl
Which she shook from her face whene'er you'd meet;
Now. when we all are so full OF deceit.
1t is good to think.
1t is good to think of your fca-bit dog,
OF the kick and scratch fight yon quickly won,
OF the gentle horse and the mounting log,
And the bright red top that you gaily spun,
1t is good to think OF those old time days,
When the only struggle to hold Your own
Was II friendly tussle in clean cut ways,
And germ of manhood was only sown,
In these days which hold us completely grown,
1t is good to think.
II is good to think of YOUR best loved book,
OF heroes and mai,iens who filled their pages;
1t is coed to think OF the light You took
And read in IA night through the middle ages;
1t is good to think of the hopes you had,
OF noble ambitions reaching SO far:
OF the tracks you laid down when yet a lad,
Which cross to the heart of the man you are
In the heat of things then guessed from affair,
1t is good to think.
