ARRIVALS AND DEPARTURES,

day night for the first time the con-
nection will be- made by Woodruff &
Ennor's stages and the Virginia and
Truckee Railroad passenger trains at
Steamboat Springs. Passengers from
Virginia will be taken BY tho stages to
Steamboat Springs, and thence by rail-
road to Reno. Passengers from Cali
fornia will come drought the Springs
by railroad. arriving about 2 o'clock
In the morning, and taking the stages
will arrive at Virginia about half-past
4. The rates Of through passage will
remain the same as at present. The
distance from Reno to Steamboat BY
railroad Is eleven miles, and the dis
tance from Steamboat to Virginia BY
stage route Is a trifls more, making
Steamboat the halfway place, or near
enough to call 1t 80. To passengers,
however, the staging oyor the Geiger
Grade will doubtless appear about
three times IS long as the railroad por-
ton.
AFTER JAcKs.-For some time (says
the Carson Register It has been ru-
mored that John 7. Jacks, one of the
escaped convicts, was "boardlng
round" with the wood choppers In the
mountains beyond tho Carson river,
and yesterday morning parties from
this city sallied forth to catch him, but
failed to got any definite trace OF the
object Of their search. It Is believed
that Jacks wa, the man who received
a shot In the thigh at the time OF the
break, and who stopped at tho Mexican
dam to get the wound dressed. If he
IA still In tho Pine Nut hills, he Is
doubtless too badly wounded to travel,
and may have met with friends who
VIII keep him concealed until no gets
we'll.

at him by the Mexican, Roderigos, In
Pine Nut Valley, some three months

little hope Of his ultimate recovery.
HIs physicians think be Will DO able
10 GET out on crutches In the course OF
a month or ak weeks, but he Will be
cripple for life, and the wound Will

Of a wear or two. Roderigos cannot
be tried for murder II Ellsworth should

date of the infiiction Of the wound.
