II EVENING NEWS.

employed in building q stone culvert
along the side Of the street. The cul-
vert is about four feet wide and three
feet deep, and i, walled up on both sides
with large square stones. This culvert
is to carry eff all the water that comes
down the gulch, and thus prevent it
from flooding the street, as it has done
during the past winter. A similar cul-
vert passes under the Kentuck hosting
works, and the one passing the Crown
Point will join on to it. At the present
time the company are putting up q large
new dump, which is much needed.
Preparations are being made to erect
new hosting works, similar to those at
the south shaft Of the Yellow Jacket
mine. We understand that the machin-
cry Of the North American claim has
been purchased and will be put into the
new works. The Crown Point is one Of
the FIRST mines Of Gold Hill, and should
be honored with better works than it
has; for, as 4; is, they have the credit
of having the poorest on the Comstock.
With q good pump, the Crown Point
and Yellow Jacket will be able to keep
all the water out Of the mines Of lower
Gold Hill without any trouble.

W. men employed at the Pest House,
Virginia, 60. into 8 quarrel aud finally

half completed, and in a week more it
will be ready TO burn. There are two
mills that grind up the clay from which
