THE DAILY NEWS.
GOLD HILL, n. T.
MONDAY EvENING--ocA 26.

- llrn OIu tAS go N-NSNSN 49,
their debauehery, the presentation Of "StarS"
to Policemen. This thing will probably
so on, unless HirSchman shuts down on
them, or until the whole present police force
is supplied. We are not going to interfere
with their innocent amusement, but we are
going to be in the fashion. Sam Arnold Is
going to have a Star, too. He can get as
drunk rs Cap. Watson or Jack Perry, and
make a heap better speech. The Star will
be none of your pigmy Virginia trash. 1t is
being made at the Pioneer Foundry, under
the immediate supervision of Ah-kee
and Cum-Sing, the Chinese flagree work
ers. 1t will be an eighteen pointed asterisk,
surrounded by trapezohedron, and will be
supplied with hinge attachment, so that it
can be converted into boot Jack thus COM
bining the useful and ornamental. Our YER
million-headed carrier will make the preSen-
tation speech, and in order to get idiotically
drunk enough to vie with the Virginia ora
tors, will commence drinking the vile stuff
that forms the staple food of those bummers
a week in advanc.
CHINAMAN SHoT-About one o'clock yes
terday afternoon, some four miles out on the
Ophir grade, Chinaman who gave his name
as Yuk Lee, was shot and probably fatally
wounded by another Celestial. Marshal Ar
mold, of Gold Hill, hearing of the affair, hast
ened to the spot, and found the wounded man.
He describes the wound as one ball passing
through the body from the left side to the
right, lodging Just under the skin, and an
other through the left leg Just above the knee.
jo1 ,,,,,, +Ol1 Tho off thot he ha-
longed to the See Yup Company. The Mar
shall succeeded in arreSting the perpetrator
of the deed, some distance from the bloody
scene, endeavOring to make his way to Viz
ginia. Three shots were fired at him before
he would surrender.
Observation-Disclosures ]. B. Perry, of
Virginia, was on Saturday evening last, the
recipient of magnificent gold badge at the
hands of the police of that city. The pre-
sentation, which took place at Judge LIE
coney'S Courtroom, was made on the part of
the Department BY Judge Hardy in an excel
lent speech higRly complimenting Marshal
Perry as a friend, man and an officer"
He was replied to by Sandy Baldwin on the
part of Mr.. Perry. What with champagne,
cigars, toaStS and good feeling, the occasion
was one to be long cherished in the memories
OfthoSe who participated in it.
FINE CABINET.-Mr. A. B. Paul, of this
place, has 4 magnificent cabinet of ores from
the different mines in this vicinity, on exhi-
bition at his bank on Main street. One piece
of ore from the ComStock lode not half as
large as mans head, is said to contain up
1,fN b.
cimenS are composed of a perfect network
curiosity of all, is IA small bar of bullion
stamped "The first bar from the first steam
mill of WaShoe, started Aug. tn, 1869, A.
B. Paul Supt." Fifty years hence, this will
be a curiosity of some interest.
ALMOST \ FIRE. - At three o'clock on
Saturday afternoon, the roof of a frame house
adjoing the Gold Hill hotel, on Main street,
caught fire from the stove-pipe, and but for
its timely discovery, might have caused
very serious FIRE. As soon as the alarm was
given, our citizens rushed to the place with
buckets and water, evidently determined that
no cOnaagratiOn should interfere with the
prosperity OF our thriving town.
New PrLvERIzER.-Mr. Cone, the in
ventor and patentec of L most excellent
machine for reducing crushed ore to an i'm
palpable powder, is now engaged in the con-
StructiOn Of one of them at Meade 4 TaScaPS
foundry, below Silver CITY. When cOmplet-
ed we Shall give full description of it. 1t
is exceedingly simple, and requires but little
power to drive it-yet it accOmplisheS the
object for which it is designed, in the most
perfect manner.
THAT mill ACCIDENT" at Sill
yer City yesterday, we learned that the Enter
prise had made several egregious errors in
reporting the accident at the Union Mill some
DAYS since-in fact there were no rivets blown
out Of the boiler at all, neither did the Pho
necr Foundry cast that mortar. The feed
pipe was blown from the boiler, and the NOR
tar, which weighed between l,500 and 1000
pounds, was cast at Meade and TascaPs
Foundry, below Silver City.
EXTRACT OF CoFFER.-A new article, nam
ed as above, is about to be introduced here
for the benefit of the lovers of really good
COTE, and those whole-souled fellows, the
horn Brothers, in Gold Hill, are the agents
for its sale. One paper of the Extract, adj
ded to one pound of coffee, will make as much
boiled coffee as three pounds-beSides adj
ding very rich aroma of the very best coffee
raised. As we have tried the article in our
family, we can safely recommend it to our
readers.
SCALE IN BoILERs.-The patent drug for
cleansing steam boilers from scale, and pre-
venting the formation of the same, sold by
J.. FeuSicr, in Virginia, and Denny Bros in
Gold Hill, is becoming more popular every
day, and is acknowledged by the most COM
petent mill men, who are using it extensively.
The advantage of removing scale, in the saw
ing of fuel and security from explosion, are
TOO well known TO need comment.
BULLIoN.-Wells, Fargo & Co., of Vir-
g!nia, shipped bullion to San Francisco on
Saturday to the amount of ST. sos, making a
total of Sl90,3S5 for the week. This is the
amount shipped from that city alone, and
does not include that shipped from Gold Hill
or any other place in the Territory. So says
the Enterprise. The shipments direct from
the Gold Hill Office for the week amounted to
Sl5,664. Most Of the bullion from this dis
trict is shipped from Virginia, and constitutes
the larger portion of that shipped from that
office.
REMovAL.-We understand that the Post
Office, Telegraph Office, and Platt & Co.'S.
Banking House, will shortly be removed to
the new brick block, now being finished, add
Joining Bittner 4 Cos. hardware and stove
Store. This will be a great improvement for
the Post Office and Telegraph Office.
PRETTY GooD.-A crushing lately made
