STOCK MBL

The tendency Of our population to
indulge in mining stock speculations is
very marked and observable. No
sooner are the morning and evening
stock reports displayed at the windows
or doors of the brokers' offices, than
crowds gather around to eagerly scan
the various sales and prices reported.
Perhaps not half those so eager to see
these reports have a cent invested, or a
cent to invest; but that makes no diff
ference. They are just as much inter
ested in the matter as anybody. They
love to watch the fluctuations aud
think how much they might have made
in case they had been able to invest in
such and such q stock which has gone
up, or to compliment themselves on
their sagacity in not dabbllng with GER
tain other stocks which have gone
down. These sanguine individuals al
ways see all those contingencies before
hand, aud are ever ready to eXclaim
triumphantly: "There, now, what
did l tell you? l knew it. Couldn't
fool me; not much" Singular as 1t
may appear, these stock sharps are
always broke ; never make a cent, not
withStanding all their far-sightedness.
Following the discovery Of the CON-
stock lode and other silver mines in this
section an immense amount of worth
less stock was put on the market, while
the stock Of really valuable mines was
run up to enormous figures. reaching
the maximum at $1,000 in the case Of
the Gould Il Curry. The wildcat
fever was soon cured, but after that the
stocks Of respectable mines were large
" dealt in and maintained at high
prices. Gradually our mines became
concentrated into the possession of con-
trolling "rings" and cliques Of capt.
talists. The management, be 1t good
Or bad, has resulted in more assess
ments than dividends, and the contin-
uance of this and a wasteful system of
working In most instances, has gradu-
ally brought prices down to a very low
figure. Some of our mines are really
managed and worked In first rate
advantageous style, with due regard
for economy and the interest Of stock
holders, but these are very exceptional
instances. The most prudent people
with means to invest do not care to
speculate in mining stocks at all, while
others, also very prudent and cautious,
invest only with great care, study and
circumspection, endeavoring to be ION
the inside =" as much us possible. These
"insiders" do get fearfully bitten,
too, sometimes. Win or lose, how
ever, there are always plenty of stock
spectators among all classes Of the
community. Those who get the worst
nipped are fully as likely as anybody
else to invest again as soon rs they are
able,

DESPERATE FIGHT AT TIL
STATE PRISON!
One Convict Thought 10 be Mortall!
Wounded!

Quite a desperate fight occurred yes
terday between some Of the convicts
in the State Prison, near Carson. Tom
Hefferman, in for life, and Russell, in
for five years, were the starters of the
row. Russell attacked Hefferman
with a butcher-knife, giving him two
cuts in the arm and one severe and
perhaps fatal one in the breast. Other
convicts interfered, and more cutting
and stabbing would have been done
had it not been for Charley Jones, an
other convict. in for ten years. who,
when the affray was at its hight,
rushed boldly into the crowd with
q heavy iron poker. laying about with
it freely OH all sides, and effectually
closing the battle in a very short time.
1t is said to have been a desperate bit
of 4 fight while it lasted. Hetferman,
it will be recollected, was n of the
leaders of the break Of December lst,
and cot shot in the back. Russell was
also concerned in the plot, but when
the attempt and grand rush was made
to escape, he failed to "stand In" and
do his part. Hefferman has conse-
quently held a deep grudge against
him ever since. which finally culmi-
mated In the desperate affray above
related. Hefferman's principal wound
Is Il very bad one, and, as we have
already stated, may terminate fatally.
