COUNTY JAn.-We visited the present
County Court House building yesterday
afternoon, for the purpose of seeing fo'
ourself what progress had been made IN
transforming this building to county uses
and purposes. We found the cells COM
pleted-four in number, for the accommo-
da,ion of otEenders-in a most substantial
manner. The carpenters at the time were
very busy in arranging and finishing
rooms directly in front Of the cells, for the
Deputy Sheriff and the Tailor. On the
same floor. looking upon B street. the
County Sheriff will have ample room for
all the business Of his Office. 1t will be a
week at least before a full description OF
our new county building can be given in
reference 10 all the details designed and
intended TO be carried into effect. When
fully completed we shall apprise our
readers.

MEAeHER.-The three men arrested for
stealing about $500 worth of amalgam
from Ogdon's Mill. were arraigned this
morning. George Pinkam, who was
working in the mill. swore that William
Nickel and VI. y. Davidson came TO the
mill the cay before and looked at the bag
of amalgam, and the same night came and
carried i, away. At this point Of the pro-
ceedinss, Nickel and Davidson waived
further examination. and mis- honor held
them TO answer before the Grand Jury,
and placed their bonds in the sum Of
$4,000 each.

lated ourself that a permanent change had
taken place, whereby we citizens Of Ne
vada could get rid Of the colds, and the
numerous little ills that " flesh is heir to-
from the ~changeable character Of the
weather during the month Of Nay. To
day, from its cloudy aspect. we really
don't know what may take place during
the next t~wenty-four hours. This year

habi,ant" among US.
No ARREsrs.-The officers and citizens
who started out in pursuit of the robbers
Of Mr.. Ingham, JUS, above Devils Gate,
nigh, before last. did not discover any
thing that would lead to the arrest OF any

by Mormons, they found two double
barreled guns" but the officers thought
tina, inasmuch as the robbery took place
in the night, Mr.. Ingham could hardly
identify the gum pointed at him from a
mere inspection Of the bore OF these pieces.
We shall try TO keep ourself posted in re-
gard 10 this most daring robbery.
