THE EVENING NEWS.

more's drug store, on South C street, Vir-
ginia, with q large stock of chemicals for
the use of Stevenson's mill, in Trinity
District, about twenty-five miles from the
Humboldt river; and this morning and
Saturday morning we saw nineteen bars
of bullion at Wells, Fargo s. Co.'s Office
in Virginia that came from that mill,
which has been at work for some three
weeks. These things augur well for the
prospects Of Humboldt, and we earnestly
hope that the rich silver lodes of that
county may yield fortunes to the few cap
italists who invest even charity in an
almost certain speculation. Lance Night
ingill, John Atkinson, and quite a num-
Der Of New York capitalists lave recently
made heavy investments in Trinity and
adjacent districts, and we hope may de-
velop that section Of Nevada's mineral
wealth.
SINKING FOR AIR.-The recent finding
of very rich ore in the Hale s Norcross
mine, at a depth of more than 700 feet,
was considered by all interested in the
future of Nevada as a most hattering in
dication Of the extent of the grand Com
stock lode. Since that body of ore was
cut, the air in the lower level has become
so bad that it is impossible for miners to
work; but an air shaft is being sunk be-
tween that and the other level, and as soon
as the connection is made the air will be
AS fresh as on the surface, and then the
ledge will be "stoped," and we trust q
large quantity Of ore will be raised daily
from this long-suffering, much-prospected
but promising mine. Charles l.. Peck is
Superintendent, and has ever been an as
siduous worker for the benefit of the
mine.
FREIGHTs.-Not only are many teams
leaving Virginia daily for Reese River and
vicinity. but the amount of all kinds of
goods being received in Storey county is
enormous, and our merchants and mill
men and mine owners are all preparing
for the winter; hence for several days past
the streets of Gold Hill and Virginia have
assumed an unwonted busy appearance,
and huge schooners, wood wagons and
hay teams have filed our thoroughfares.
Everything points to a season of uncom-
mon prosperity, and next summer We look
to see the flush times of Nevada again re-
viyed.
REDUCTION. The price Of billiards at
the Washoe Exchange Saloon, South c
street, Virginia, has been reduced, and for
twenty-five cents one can enjoy a game of
billiards, and played on as good tables as
can be found in Nevada. The rooms are
always comfortable and quiet, and the
best in the city-.while the handsome and
amiable Put" receives all customers
with a grace and suavity that would have
made Talleyrand ashamed of his diplo-
matte powers. Call and see the folks
they are all good fellows.
GooD.-Al Of the mines in Gold Hill
proper are taking out a large quantity Of
excellent ore daily, yet some few mills are
without crushing material, and we trust
the facilities for getting out additional
quantities of ore may be materially In
creased during the next six months, and
that the Savage, Ophir, Chollar-Potosi,
Gould & Curry and Hale s Norcross may
each be supplying a dozen mills with an
abundance of ore.
