low Jacket mine. which no doubt will
long be remembered by those who partici-
pated in it. The workmen in the mine
and employees Of the company have had
under consideration for some m past
the matter Of presenting a suitable testi,
monial Of their confidence IN ana regard
for the Foreman of the mine' James
O'Donnell. They accordingly procured
a most magnificent gold watch ana heaVy
GOLD bullion chain, worth about six hun
dred dollars, and made a formal present OF
!, 10 him. The presentation was made by
Hon. John b. Winters, in q neat, feeling
and happy address, and the testimonial
received and the accompanying remarks
responded to by Mr.. O'nonnell in person.
There were perhaps two hundred persons
present, all Of whom were then invited to
partake of refreshments, which had been
very literally provided. After the nu.
merous beverages were fully tested several
times, the assemblage formed itself into a
committee Of the whole, in honor OF the
occasion and also in respect to Thanks
giving Day. Various sentiments were
offered and honored by the tipping OF the
glasses, and many persons called upon to
respond, as suited the various toasts.
Among them were Messrs. Winters, Mills,
Ball, Hays, Stone, Lee, Burk. Murphy,
Pascoe, Beegan, Layton, Mauseau, and a
host Of others. The affair was kept up
for several hours, and everything passed
off in a kindly and gentlemanly manner,
and reflected credit upon the officers and
employees Of the Yellow Jacket Company.
The handsome present Of the watch and
chain is highly appreciated by MIR. O'Don-
nell, and the donors feel as proud OF 1t as
himself. O'Donnell is considered by those
best able to Judge, as not having a supe-
rior as a Foreman Of a mine on the Com
stock Ledge.

California, in greenbacks, to parties who

when finished, upwards Of 100000. Over
300 tons Of rock have been taken out OF these
claims for crushing in this mill. From a
party who has seen this ore. we are assured
that it will work well by mill process. Inc
