sticks being merely small rods OF IRON or
steel. some six or eight inches IN length,
po;nted az one end TO stick into the TIM
bsrs CLAW or ~crevices of rock, and at the
o,ber a socke, for holding the candle. The
candlestick Of which we speak was in
vented and made by L. Wells, blacksmith,
on South c street. who has taken measures
to secure a patent on it. The improve
ments on which he claims patent consists
in that this has a joint or hinge about the
middle Of II. which allows Of tie sharp
point Of it being doubled over in such a
manner as TO be within a bow which
shields and covers it in such a manner
that i, can be safely carried in ones
pocket. The socket OF the candle. too, is
within the bow, which is shaped like that
Of a patent cork.screw. 1t IS a very in
genious arrangement which will be appre-
ciated by our underground miners.-En-
terprise.
The above is correct in every particular,
except that IL. Wells, blacksmith, on
south c street." is not the inventor, nor
has he authority from the inventor to sp-
ply for q patent. Mr.. J. A. Holden, q
practical blacksmith of Gold Hill, while
working at the Eclipse mine, last Febru-
airy. invented the candlestick above de-
scribed. and we saw the article with our
own eyes last evening. This candlestick
is Gold Hill idea. Mr.. Wells, black
smith, south c street, may apply for
a patent, and make as many as he
pleases, but Mr.. Holden is entitled TO the
credit of the original plan.
A Coon PIPR.-Harry Sutlif, No. $50
Kearney street, San Francisco, has sent US
Il neat and very pretty smoke-pipe, as a
sample Of a lot he has on sale. The pipe
stem is n large double tube. and its peculiar
merit consists in the use of two tubes, n
for the smoke alone. and the other for the
passage of the saliva and nicotine TO a cup
az the bottom, whence it is discharged.
The smoke being thus kept clear Of con-
tact with saliva, is always delicious and
pure in its odor, and the collected matter
which renders all other pipes offensive be-
ing entirely removed. the pipe will always
continue sweet and agreeable. Why don't
eOu4C Va OuA tAbSi PAAo4lS NOSoNNN NSS'NaS
introduce this kind of pipe? Its cost Is
less than meerschsum-we mean the i'm
ported. genuine article-and far better, BY
reason Of its double tubes.
