THE EVENING NEWS
wy,rv p,yp Irrxs.-A letter from

10Th, gives the iolloWlhg items retatiSe
to that interesting region. The
weather is foggy, cold and stormy.
Board is from SIS 10 SCI per week,
lodging 81 per night, and wages So per
day. The weather prevents men from
making "full time" and work is not
alarmingly plenty you can easily form
your opinion or these facts about
the " poor mans paradise in winter.
A lot belonging to John Church was
jumped on Wilson Avenue yesterday.
The jumpist was subsequently caused to
become convinced that il he did not
eyacuate the premises within ten min
utes the ''committee" wousd give him n
brieftim to leave the district. Hegotup
aud vacated. Charley heusted, former
ly carrier OF the Gold Hill News, is the
Michael Reese OF Treasure City in re-
spect to property. He and Billy Dol
man the largest house in town.
The basement OF it is occupied as II
"hurdy gurdy" establishment, and
rents for $500 u month. Wells, Fargo
( Co.'S Office and II saloon are on the
ground floor, and up stairs is kept rs n
lodging house, with fifty beds, the
whole house bringing in II rental OF
So $50 par month. Next to them is
DR.. Boone AID Alex Coycrt's two.story
and basement building, rented by w.
j. Forbes formerly of the TresPGss), the
basement rs a grocery store, the ilooras
the Bureau saloon, aud over the salo"n
LAWYERS and brokers rooms hen-
tuck" (of the International saloon, VIZ
ginia) also has rooms there which he
will occupy 10 n few days. Billy
Wright is stopping in Shermantown.
Tho 'Chipmunk' who used to stop
with " Lucy" is here. Times ARE rather
dull, and not much worth speaking OF
going on
Tas VELoCIrEDE At GOLD HILL.-lt
has "arriv." IL came to Virginia after
they got the smallpox, and now we
have got the v~elocipede down here Mt
Gold Hill. Ned Blair brought it down
Saturday evening on his Concord bus,
and Professor Jim OrndorT along with
il. Woodruff has got it Mt his Eclipse
Stable, Main street but from what We
have seen of the efforts of Gold Killers
thus far, that velOcipede is the most un-
manageable thing 10 ride that he has
got in his stable. II is one of the regu-
lar two-wheeled kind, made after the
latest and most approved pattern, and
Woodruff purchased it on purpose for
the Gold Killers to try their hand at
managing the thing. He has cleared
out his carriage room for the purpose,
and now uses it exclusively for " veiocl-
pede school, NIL who choose being privi-
legged to take lessons on it ut II small
price per hour. Quite II crowd were
present Saturday evening whsa 1t !irst
arrived and was tried ut the stable.
Professor Orndorff mounted il and sped
about the spacious room just as he
pleased, in swift, graceful circles, tho
really beautiful little vehicle being
completely under his command, AL
though rs yet he is very little expert
enced in managing it. Doc. Beals had
terrible time trying to ride it, and ).
II. Mills did ercu worse. All who tried
it for the first time got ''buckcd OF.
II was even more intractablc than "
wild California mustang, as far rs they
were concerned. Somebody or other Is
up to WoodrufTS pretty much al! the
timo practicing with is, and we have
hopes Of recording some very novel and
exciting velocipedc racing nGSt spring
and summer on the Fort Homestead
track. Go and SEQ the velOcipcdc.

former excellent and popular land
