WATER SUPrLY.-In consequence or
the Cole Company at Virginia having
shut of their supply Of water from the
fumes of the Water Company, the
Imperial Empire holsting works have
been cut off from their source of water
supply. Measures, however, are being
promptly taken to use the water which
Is hoisted from the shaft, Of which
there Is plenty. For this purpose a
small force-pnmp Is put In position
lear the surface of the shaft, In the
building, and the water is to be forced
up to the tank on the hillside back of
the works. The pipe Is being laid
to-day, and all will be right to-mor-
row. The water from this shaft has
heretofore been sold to sprinkle the
streets Of Gold Hill and to supply
some Of the mills, but now 4 portion
Of 1t will be used for the purpose above
designated.

raised here In Gold Hill to s. 80 each,

iaS takes place. If Il fellow only
knew whether his tickets were going
to win or not, now would be the time
for a spec.

breaking his back. And so he died.
