CARSON ITEMs.-We extract the fol-
lowing from the Register Of this morn
ing: A beautiful little animal, about
the size and Of the same general make
up as a common gray or tree squirrel,
walked into the Warm Springs Hotel
yesterday, and the hospitable landlord,
Matt Pixley, took the little fellow In
to board. It Is probably one Of the
most beautiful specimens Of the ami
NAL Kingdom now liying-having 1--WE
quote Worcester's description OF a
leopard the head, neck, back, limbs
and under parts irregularly marked
with black spots, and on the sides
numerous distinct roses, or clusters OF
small spots disposed In q circular
form, the ground color Of the whole
being a yellowish fawn, except on the
under parts, which are white, and has
n white stripe around its neck. IL Is a
squirrel, and yet a leopard in color.
Il Is quite tame, and appears to be
we'll contented In Its new home.
The. Jockey Club held a large and en-
thusiastic meeting in this city night
before last, and adopted a speed pro-
gramme for the Fall races. The pro-
Sramme will be laid before the public
within two or three days....An old
gentleman named Kennedy met with
q severe and painful accident In this
city last evening, by falling heavily
upon some broken glass, one piece Of
which cut his right wrist to the bone.
Thomas & Co.'S Mammoth Stere-
opticon will be exhibited ut the Car
son Theatre Friday and Saturday
evenings.
those WELL-GNTEs.-We under
stand that those well-gates authorized
by the Virginia Board Of Aldermen,
have not yet been affixed to the water
cisterns of the mining companies above
the line Of B street. The unmistak-
able incendiary attempt on South G
street, two or three nights since, should
be hint enough that those well-gates
cannot be procured and put upon the
cisterns any too soon, and property
holders in that section are getting
anxious to have this done. The cost
OF them Is a mere trifle, and as to hose
there Is no need Of waiting for any
more. for the Fire Department Is we'll
supplied already In that respect, hav-
ing over 5000 feet. 1t Is somebody's
business to attend to the matter. ana
It should be done forthwith. Never
mind about any more hose. Get tho
well-gates first.
REruRNEp.-John Buckmaster, one
of the typos from this office, who has
been over at Lake Tahoe r~usticating
and having a good time for the last
two or three weeks, returned this
morning, brown, fresh and vigorous,
and with an appetite like a coyote.
He speaks in most enthusiastic terms
of the beauties and pleasures Of that
romantic region, and smells decidedly
fisLy from clubbing and eating so
many trout. He says he saw Ginn's
mermaid In the Lake, and his descrip-
ton Of her voluptuous roseats charms
Is too glowlngly experating altogether
for our poor nerves.
RETURNED HUNTERs.-A party OF
hunters, a portion Of whom were from
the Enterprise office, Virginia, who
have been over in Hope Valley opera
ting for some days past returned last
evening. They looked dilapidated and
careworn, as though they had enjoyed
a serious time Of it. They tished in
the streams and hunted in the hills.
but only caught a few small trout and
no whales. They had no good whale
bait. They were fortunate enough to
shoot a rabbit and a few grouse, thus
staving of the pangs Of hunger until
they got back to the flesh-pots and
stew-Eettles Of old Virginia.
