The plant juice remedies still continue to sell with remarkable rapidity in this city and district, and the platform opposite the Majestic theatre is doing land office business.
 The great feature attached to the re- markable sale of the remedies which have only been advertised in this state for the past seven months is due to the fact that results of a remarkable nature have followed them wherever they have gone.
 There is nothing mysterious about the medicine, and the plant juice Is in every particular d pure connection made up after laborious experiment and study.
 It conforms in every particular to the requirements of the pure food law. and is protected by the official number of Uncle Sam, who knows whereon he puts his stamp of official approval.
 It is a remedy that is first and last de- duced from nature and has the peculiar faculty of reaching chronic or constitu- tional troubles as no other remedy has demonstrated as it has.
 Colonel Dillingham; has issued a state ment through his advertising bureau to the effect that he stands personally be- hind the claims made for his remarkable remedies.

WOMEN UsHERs FOR THEATRE.
Experiment Will Be Tried In One of
 Hammerstein's PIayhouses.

New York, November 2.-There are to be women ushers in the Manhattan Opera house this season. Last winter there was considerable trouble with some of the men who were employed in this ca- pacity and many changes had to be made in the corps of seat pilots before the season was over.
 MT. Hammerstein and his son, Arthur. have studied out the cause and effect of last years petty troubles, and they have decided that If women ushers, who are employed In many of the large opera houses in Europe, are a success, the plan should work in the Manhattan and 1t will be tried.
 Twelve young women have been en- gagged and beginning Monday night they will take charge of the seating arrange ment of the Manhattan. The women will be in uniform.

ly. "You are a clever nigger. I wish l knew as much as you," said Flynn
 That's what l am said Johnson.
 Flynn lowered his head and rushed again. He tried an overland left for Johnson's face and the next instant John son dropped him with the finishing punch The contest was full of action but to the practiced eye it looked as though John son held his man safe at all stages of the affair.
 The negro did not slug indiscrminately. In the main he stood over Flynn like a big black hawk over a partridge and waited for the white mans attack. The crowd rebuked Johnson for being too eager to hold and blanket Flynn in some of the rounds, but the end justified the means Johnson has been criticised for not finishing his opponents in a workmanlike manner in past fights in this city. but he fought coolly and bided his time today It was plain that he figured on dropping his man with q right hand punch.
 It was only the gong that saved Flynn from defeat in the ninth round for in that particular spell of fighting the ne gro nailed his opponent with just such q right handler as ended the fight It hap pened about one second before the bell and Flynn was carried to his corner and revived during the minute rest

Swearing OF.

Most of the swearing of done by the
rich men of New York city at the be
ginaing of the year seems to consist in
swearing of their taxes. 1t Isa pity
that some of these men, aud a good
many other men of various degrees in
other parts of the country, did not start
New Years Day by swearing Off from
perjury. 1t is discouraging and bewild-
ering to think of the amount of this
violation of statute and moral law
committed annually in this country
by men of responsibility, position and
character who should be exemplars
and leaders. How Ecan we ex-
pect our young men to have a niet
sense Of honor md high regard for hon
esty, duty and integrity when they Sc
every day the successful men, veneer
able men, men prominent in religious
social and business life, delibe-atel,
swearing falsely to save few dollars
honestly due the State, city or county?
How can we expect the masses of the
people to be patriotic when the leaders
of the people deliberately perjure them
selves to escape public duty to avoid
their share of the burdens of maintai :
| ing the government?
These men in New York city, for in
stance, who swear off the greater part
of their assessments, are obvious per-
jdrers. Everybody who sees their style
and manner Of living can judge some
thing of their annual expenditures.
such expenditures cannot be made eX-
| cept from great incomes and great in
comes cannot be derived except from
great possessions.
Yet men ia this position, fauntin g
| their almost boundless wealth osten
tatious before the public, deliberately
make oath before Almighty sGod THAT
they are little better than paupers
orthat their means are limited.
Some Of these sworn-to lies are
outright and direct; others are
evasions. Men establish nominal res
idence in one State, where they pay
little or nothing, and then swear that
they are not taxable in the State in
which they really live. That is a bald
and disgraceful dodge and morally a
perjury.
If some evangelist would go through
the country arousing rich men to a
sense OF their sin in this regard and
with fiery words awakening their con-
sciences to reform, more good would be
done than by sending missionaries in
to the Sums.

Brownlow CauId'ns Say Amen.

One of the best retorts in history oc-
Cured when Parson Brownlow was
war governor of Tennessee. On one of
his journeys hesattended service at a
asnall Methodist church in the upper
part of the state. The parson was a de-
vout Methodist, and seldom allowed
his political rancor to interfere with
the charity of his religious faith.
On this occasion being a visiting
clergyman, he was placed in the "amen
corner" near the pulpit. The local
minister was as ardently Democratic
in his views as Governor BrownIow
was Republican.
In the prayer which followed the
lengthy sermon the minister began to
call on the Lord fer graoo for ,.;;s ."..yor-
ties.
"God bless Felix Grundy, "he began.
Parson Brownlow moved uneasily in
his seat, but responded with con-
scientious "Amen."
"God bless Robert E. Lee" contin-
ued the preacher. A fainter "Amenn
from Parson Brownlow.
"God bless the whole Democratic
party cried the preacher, waxing in
fervor as he progressed. This was too
much for the Governor. With a bound
he was on his feet and shouting:
"God forbid! 1t would bankrupt di-
vine grace and exhaust the whole plan

NEEDS IMMEDIATE ATTENTION
Time Now at Hand for Selecting
Eureka County's Publicity
Commissioners

Under the provisions of a law passed
by the last Nevada legislature a Pub
licity Commission was created. the
duties of which are to advertise the re-
sources OF the State. The Commission
is empowered to appoint two Commits.
sioners in each county, whose duty will
be to assist the board in its work.
The law further provides that each
county in the State is authorized to
spend $3.50 a month to be used in this
work.
The board will meet early in June at
the State Capitol. Carson City, to make
these appointments. 1t is understood
that the promoters to be appointed in
each county will be men who can give
the time required in a business Of this
kind, and who are also familiar with
what will be necessary in gathering
statistics and other data regarding the
of their respective localities.
As will be seen. there is no time to
spare il Eureka County is to be includ-
ed in the promotion work so well begun
all over the State. 1t would seem that
those having large interests in this
county should get together and give this
matter the attention it deserves 1t now
behooves this class of u citizens to
take this matter up among themselves
and assist in the proper selection Of men
TO look after the business that will be re-
quired of them by the Publicity Com
mission.
