It is true that no immediate lack of this popular wine is to be anticipated, but the hotel and and the wine restaurant keepers merchants are making a not unreasonable use of their opportunity and are putting up the price of the earlier vintage; 1898 and 1895 are already becoming scarce; 1893 and 1892 command prices which are almost prohibitive; it is rare to find a bottle of 1877 in good condition, and the failure In quick succession of the three years 1901. 1902 and 1903 means that the world's demand will speedily outstrip " the visible supply. In of want the Whether champagne the entertainer and his guests will take to other wines may be debated. Perhaps the chief virtue of champagne lies and has always lain in its costliness; in subtlety of flavor it cannot yle with claret or with hock of the finer kinds In the eyes of the epicure. .And as it will now be costlier than ever Its vulgar virtues will be correspondingly augmented. The humbler purse may hare to content Itself with sparkling moselle or even with the elaborate confections of the chemist disguised beneath the daintiest of tin foil; but perhaps he will not be very much worse off than in the past, since it is creditably reported that there is already a great demand for the harmless Juice of the gooseberry, suitably manipulated, for those who set the appearance above the reality. Then there are always the years of champagne which are not known to the man of taste, but which must be sold somehow, and which cannot well find a better use than in teaching by the headaches which they to impart, the virtue of the youthful diner.

In this case, happens to be an Indian. It may be stated in passing that a Nevada Indian of the male persuasion considers It a traditional privilege that he may beat his wife as much and as often as he But the law takes another pleases. point of view and the aboriginal offenders who attempt to carry the tradition into practice have contracted the habit of spending a good pnrtwf their time in jalL A new wrinkle in this business, it seems, is the resurrection by the Winnemucca justice of the statute which peace of a legalises the whipping post as a punishment for offenders. A practical illustration of the working of the law is to be given, and the story of the case, as related by the Silver State, is as follows: Last Sunday evening Indian Bob Thacker got fuller than a goat, and to assert his independence, authority and manhood, went home and proceeded to mop the floor of two or three rooms with the person of Mrs. Thacker. The lady demurred and had Bob arrested. He was arraigned before Justice Robins this morning, and, upon the offense with which he was charged being proven, the Judge sentenced him to be taken by the sheriff of the county on a date to be determined by that official, and strapped to the post which is not here, but which the law has provided for, and which is supposed to be here, for not less than two and not more than ten hours; and to have displayed on his back a placard bearing the legwhich shall remain end thus displayed during the time that the prisoner shall be confined at the post. The sheriff is Instructed to personally see that the sentence is carried out, and he will doubtlessly do so as soon as the post can be provided. Meanwhile Bob will languish in the county bastlle, and Mrs. Lucy Thacker, his amiable spouse, will enjoy a few weeks of comparative freedom.
