THE EVENING NEWS,

grading lot which they lately purchased
In American City, as site for their new
mill. In about two or three weeks they
will commence the work of building their
mill, which is to be on plan totally diff
ferent from anything of the kind ever
seen in the Territory. 1t viii contain l20
stamps, standing in a circle around a
wheel twenty-five feet in diameter, with
the whole of the amalgamating apparatus
inside the circle of stamps. The machine
~ viii be driven by steam generated in
boiler of u very peculiar pattern. The
boiler Is to stand upright and within it
is furnace for roasting the rock to be
crushed. The same fire that roasts the
ore for crushing heats the boiler, and once
the rock in the furnace is thoroughly
heated very small amount of fuel will
be necessary to keep up steam; in fact, the
mass of red hot rock inside of the boiler
will serve to make the heat the same at all
times, and would even keep up heat for
some time after all the fuel placed in the
FIRE chambers was consumed. The whole
arrangement Of the mill and motive power
is exceedingly economical and startlinsly
novel, and viii either prove grand fail
ure or completely revolutionize the style
of our reduction works. Mr.. Phillip
Wilkins IS the inventor of both the mill
and the boiler-or rather boiler and fur
mace compounded.
ST. JoHN's CHuRcH.-This beautiful
Gothic pile is rapidly approaching compile
ton. and is even now so nearly finished,
externally, as to give an idea of its final
appearance. There will be no handsomer
Church edifiee of its size on the Pacific
coast, and it will prove an ornament to the
town, Of which our citizens may be justly
proud. The tower IS now at the height of
the dials of the town-clock with which
the Church viii be furnished, and We can
now see that they will be in sight
from every part of the town.
The fine bell, of over eight hundred
pounds weight, will give forth pleasing
sound on the Sabbath, and will furnish
the further useful purpose of fre-alarm
that will be unmistakeable. The whistles
of the steam-worSs, which we now rely on
for that purpose, are blowing at all sort of
odd times and in all eccentric ways, so
that it is impossible to tell whether they
mean fire" or not. The church is to
be completely finished one month from
to-day.
INDIAN TRoUsLEs.-Wel learn from Mr..
Gridley, the famous Sanitary -four sack
man." Just arrived from Austin, en- route
for the Bay, that a telegraph operator from
Salt Lake had reached Austin, who stated
that the Indians were rising and CONSOLE
dating their forces on the plains. Gen.
Conner sends word for the people to be
prepared for a big Indian fight. There
seems to be a combination Of the Indian
tribes for an onslaught. Let it come!
There are fighting men enough IN Nevada
Territory alone TO clean out the red skins.
Without provocation they are now in.
arms, and have committed many murders
and outrages. We are an advocate of
mercy, but it seems that nothing less than
an determination of the savages who
slaughter our people Unfortunately will
secure peace to.this section of the country.

HUNTING FOR YorERs.-Nearly all the
nominees on the Buzzard-roost ticket of
Storey county were down in Gold Hill the
other day, hunting for Democratic con-
stituents. They visited every grog and
beer shop from the Divide to the Devils
Gate; and they succeeded to find every
Democrat who will vote their ticket.
These candidates are evidently cup to
snuff" and know exactly where to find
the Democracy. Of course, they didn't
visit any of our mines, mills and mechan-
les shops; they are not the places to find
Democrats Union men occupy those
places.
New MILITARY CoNPANY.-We are in
formed that the members.of Engine Com
pany No. 2 have in contemplation the
organization of a military company, to be
known as the Young America Zouayes.
This company proposes to be drilled un-
der Ellsworth's tactics, and as soon as
they learn the drill we may expect to see
some tall exhibitions of military gymnas-
tics. The uniform of the Zoo-zoos Is Of
very peculiar cut, and company dressed
in the genuine Zouave style would create
a decided Observation-Disclosures
The PIONEER SrAeEs.-These splendid
coaches, the finest stage line ever estab-
Ished on the coast, continue to arrive
regularly every evening, with passengers
from San Francisco in % hours The
energy and unequalled enterprise Of this
line, certainly merits, as it evidently re-
ceives, the largest patronage OF any stage
line from and to California. 1t takes SIX
of these stages to accommodate the travel
ing public daily, going and coming. Con-
tinued success to the Pioneer Line.
Posr MoRrEM ExAorNArIoS.-Day be
fore yesterday, post norton exanina-
ton was held on the body of Sam Wells,
by Doctors Tucker and Briarly. They
discovered as they expected, that the base
of the brain was much injured. The
strongest man could not have survived
such fractures and injuries, and it is only
wonderful that Mr.. Wells was not killed
outright. g..
CHEAP CLorHINa.--Now is certainly
the time to buy clothing cheap. Look at
the list of prices in Harris new advertise
ment to-day. He is closing out his busi-
ness in the Territory, and for the next
few weeks viii sell goods lower than they
have ever been sold in the Territory. Go
early and take your pick.

weighing 1911 pounds, worth, according
to assay, S33,l7l 81.
