mines, which again calls ior "o'e eau
ton and care on the part of the work
men. About IL o'clock, on Wednesday
,;cb, the shift Of workmen in the
Stevenson mine, in Gold Hill proper,
changed, and the new hands consisting
of n Freedman and William Williams
wen, to work laying the track at the
foot of the incline, about $50 feet in
length. The outgoing shift had reach
ed the top of the incline, and justas the
car which had drawn them up r%eachea
the level track, the hind wheels ana
axle become disadjusted from tue Uai,
ance Of the car, ana ro..eu
down the track with great Veioei.y,
and struck Williams right on tue
head mashinc it most horrioiy-,in
fact, leaving nothing but q mangled
mass ON top of the shoulders. De-
Goa Sod was evidently in u stopping
nosture at the time the car struck him,
with his head directed upon the incline,
ne tho full force Of the wheels and axle
seems TO have struck him right on the
ton Of the head. The brother OF tue
deceased had gone up on the car, ana
was the last one to get out, just us
he go, out he discovered the hind wheeis
rolling down the incline. He accord
inclv hurried down the steps OF the
incline as soon as possible, and was
Mortified TO discover his unfortunate
brother n mangled corpse. The French
man was at work on one side OF the
incline, and escaped injury. The aeei-
dent occurred almost within the space
of n moment. The manglcd remains
were brought up TO the top, and remov-
ed to q house on the Divide, where an
inquest was held by Coroner Gartrell,
and the remains properly prepared ior
burial. In the afternoon the funeral
took place, which was quite largely
attended by a~cquSintances and sympa-
thizing friends, and n solemn and deeply
impressive sermon delivered BY the Rev.
Mr.. Wicks, Of the NJ. E. Church in Vir-
GINA city-,he remains being buried IN
the cemetery uear that city. Mr.. WI
liams was only IS years Of age, was a
native of ST. Day, in England, and had
been in our mines only about hve weeks.
He leaves n wife and two children In
St. Day-whose deep and sorrowfnl an
ruish on hearing of this dreadful be-
reavement can better be imagined than
described. Truly, Gin the midst oil lie
we are in death"
WEArHEI-wIsE.-Some a~linanacs, ana
people who observe the weather closely,
SAY tina, the three last days of Fall, or
the three last days of November, may be
relied upon as fair samples as to what
kind of weather will happen during the
three winter months. Therefore, II the
three last DAYS of November are stormy,
rs they certainly were last year, (f our
memoir is correct, and we think 1t ISL
the three winter months will be very
stormy. On the other hand, II the
weather is fair and pleasant, so will be
the three winter months. If this hypo-
thesis is correct, and yesterday stood as
its representative, December will GER
tainly be as beautiful weather as mortal
man or woman could wish. As to-day
is supposed to stand for January, ana
as it is rs pleasant as n May morning,
we NAV anticipate q most delightful sea-
son. Tomorrow will represent Febru-
Nry. lue NtabucA a.
of these representations.

Who CAN BEAT l Iron Wednesday,
Harry Feusier's twelve mule team driven
bv William Gun, hauled from the lum-
Der yard Of Colwell i Williams at Wash
oe to the Challenge mine, Gold Hill,
9.G56 feet Of .cautling lumber. This is
by two hundred feet the largest load OF
lumber ever brought over the road. Mr..
Williams informs US that in o day or
two they will bring in 10, 900 feet at one
load, and then wait for some enterpris-
ing person to beat it if they can.
CoRREcrIoy.-By n provoking little
mistake in our description Of the new
hosting works Of the Imperial and En-
pire companies our types made as say
that "most" Of the work had been lone
by contract, when it should have read
that none of the work had been done by
contract, it being claimed to have thus
been done better and cheaper. 1t was
simply a typographical error.
Fowls, FISH, GANE.-Read under the
head of "Ncw To-day" about Louis
Monaco aud his ley market on Main
street, Gold Hill. Game Of all kinds,
turkeys, ducks, chickens, geese, quail,
hare. fresh fish from San Francisco,
trout from Lake Tahoe, and plenty OF
other good things always pervade the
new market.
How TO MAKE MosEY.-Go and deal
with Logan, the we'll known and estab-
lished stock and exchange broker, Main
street, Gold Hill. He will sell you
stocks at any advance you ask for, and
all feet bought of him are sure to strike
big at the lower level, inside Of week.
Read his advertisement in another col
umn.
KExrucK.-The Kentuek Company
are laying in a large amount OF timoers'
tagging and wood, for the coming VIM
ter and Spring. Judging from their
timber pile one would naturally sup.
pose they designed taking out q great
deal of metal during the Winter ana
Spring.
AcqrrrrED.-Ike Hubbell, who had
the difficulty with John Ldady, ON Mon
day afternoon, was tried in Justice
Halls Court, on Wednesday afternoon
on the charge of assault and battery,
