In the Democratic mass con-

to see a ticket nominated for city
officers that will be credit to

They should be business men who
will look well to the city's best
interests and invest its public
money where it will do the most
good for the city and at the same
time be the means of attracting

is the time to begin. Let the o.

do so each time he works the

Predicts the End OF the World.

Elder o. Montgomery, Seventh

the world will come to an end IN
a few years. He says this will
take place before the death of
the last person who saw the stars
fall in 1893. He says: There
are few people living now who
saw that phenomenon, and l
know that the end will come be-
fore all of them are gone" e.

ence had been unable to solve
the falling Of the stars in 1888
and that he has scriptural proof
that the millennium would occur
within the generation following
that event.

ginia City acted as gunner, an
nouncing welcome every few min
utes with the cannon.
The old cannon and ammunition
wagons will be a feature in the
park and will bring back many re-
collections. Many who are now
men will remember the time their
young hearts beat with pride when
the battery marched in parade.
The youth of the present day can
hardly realize the sensation of see
ing real soldier with a real can
non, but as they play around the
guns they will learn from others
the real significance of war and the
countrys defenders.
The silent frowning guns are a

and the soldiery of this state who
were ready to fight their country's
battles, but who never had a chance.

Wade neglected to have an assay

314 ounces in silver or a value OF
$163.33 a ton. The news spread
like wildfire through the district

to the new field. At least five au-

the strike, and it is expected that
some of the rushers will return
some time tomorrow, when more
definite news of the find will be
known. 1t is said that the rich
ledge discovered by Graham is about
four feet in width. If one-half

George Bartlett is an ordinary
citizen now. He closed for a time
his public career on March 4. He
then ceased to be a congressman.
Since then he has been more busy
than ever he was in looking after
the public veal. He is now looking
after the interests of host of
clients. These interests are clamor-

harness.
He is glad of it. He was in
Austin last week on legal business.
He had the same smile that he
wore when he was millionaire in
Tonopah. He sees more for Nevada
now than he saw then. He has
more faith in Austin and Lander
county than any ten men who live
there. He was in his old home to

BATTERY rs GUNS TO BE
PLACED IN FRONT CAPITOL

The state house of the state of
Nevada will soon be guarded from
foes without by formidable weapons.
The last legislature appropriated
money for the purchase of the guns
that formerly belonged to Battery
A of Virginia City, and they will be
mounted on concrete bases in the
capitol park
The guns had outlived their use
fulness, and were accumulating dust
in the state armory. They had long
been condemned by the government
and were purchased for about $500.
Who would object to the purchase
of the relics, says the Carson News,
when they may be seen in summer
under the trees reminding one of
the old-time encampments; or when
winter blasts sweep the park and
ice and snow hang on gun and
wheels, would regret the expendi-
ture for the vivid reminder of VAL
ley Forge.
The board of capitol commission
ers evidently had this historical
lesson in mind when they ordered
the guns placed. Having become
the property of the state, they should
be made ornamental, being no long
er useful.
The cannons are the old muzzle-
loading type and shoot three-inch
she'll They were the pride of the
state few years back, and no cele-
bration was complete unless Battery
A participated. The company was
always up to it's full strength, for
the old-timers were proud of their
association with the greatest weap-
ons of war at the time. With the
decline of the Comstock many mem
bers departed and the company was
disbanded. The guns reverted to
the government, and were stored in
this city. The last time one was
ever used was on the occasion of
the visit of William Jennings Bryan
to this city in 1899. Bryan came
down from the Lake and the city
was crowded with thousands of peo-
pie to hear him speak. One OF the
guns vas placed near Armory hall,
