the piety which his hostess must pos

feet will create volunteer retired

the Union army and navy. OF all

wounds received IN action, actively
served with credit at least one year
!. III the Civil war of 1876. MOST OF
these officers served three and four
\ years unless sooner discharged on ac-
count Of wounds or other disability.
The proposed bill provides retired
pay equal to three-fourths OF the
present active pay OF officers OF cor
responding rank. such retired pay not
to exceed the full pay of a captain OF
cavalry. Its benefits accrue only to
those who file application therefor
and relinquish any existing pension

Gry of wars these men were OF those
who led the forces of the United

aspiring which would otherwise remain closed, and
lead the way to recognition and success. The man

WAS SURPRISED

At the trial of the high-sraders at
Goldfield yesterday ore was intrOduc.
ed in evidence as coming from the
Little Florence mine. IN expert in
ores was called and stated that ii
was an impossibility to tell whether
piece of ore came from certain
mine or not. He stated that he had
seen lots of ore from the mines at
Ramsey that could not be told from
Little Florence rock. He was close
ly questioned on this statement but
maintained his point to the cOnster
nation of Judge Langan and several
men in the court room.
That there is ore on earth like
the Goldneld IRE outside of that camp
was a vital blow and they have not
got over its effects yet.
