PrUrE FASpASooEs.-This Is appar-
emily the high festival season of our
native neighbors. the Piutes. Its only
a week or two since their big fandango
on the hills east of Gold Hill was col
cluded, and another has just termina-
ted at or near Reno. SO we were in
formed by Captain Charley, whom we
met at noon to-day, on Main street.
The festive old chief had a bran new
cavalry hat on, with q set OF brass
trumpets and some bright buttons and
fancy shells rugged on to the front OF
It, and his fine, classic, old physiogno-
NV was smeared with brick colored
paint, with four elegant white stripes
Adjoining each cheek. The old fellow
says, "heap fun; me likum. Poorly
soons goin' be mother fandango down
Pyramid Lake. Plenty 1njun; no
sequaw; bully time, you bet" This
"a doubtless what the Carson Register
of this morning refers to when it says:
Captain Joe, Chief Of the Washoe In
dams, Informs us that his tribe n the
Piutes will hold a grand peace jubilee
at some point between Winnemucca
and Pyramid Lake, commencing to-
morrow or next day and continuing
for three days. All the bucks and
warriors of both tribes who can posi-
bly, attend will be present, women and
children being prohibited. Captain
Joe and his brother Jim Jim being in-
t~erpreter and spokesman for the
Washoes) left yesterday for Reno,
where they will take the cars for WIN,
nemucca. Other Washoe warriors y
will leave to-day. Whatit Is all about
we could not fully understand, but be-
lieye the meeting Is for the purpose Of
bringing about a more friendly feeling
and better understanding between the
two tribes, the Piu:cs restoring the
Washoes to all the rights Of Indian
citizenship, Of which for many years
the latter tribe has been deprived by
their conquerors, the Piutes.
TIE FIRE.-The fire which has been
burning on the Sierra west Of this city,
for the past week, says the Carson
Reoister, has subsidized for the lack OF
combustible material upon which TO
feed. It Is still following down the
canyon toward Mill Station, at the
south end of Washoe Valley, but can
do no further damage there than de-
-atroying the brush aud rubbish lett oy
,tbs woodmen, as the timber has been
cnt and tbe wood hauled away. 1t
seeus that the Virginia and Truckee
Railroad Company lost but a few coroS
OF wood. but a Frenchman lost over
.I0O cords Of limb wood and some valu-
Able timber. Beyond the summit the
fire swept along close to a VAST plle ot
wood belonging to ID. NJ. e.inSSS0nn
e Co., and which Is valued at Sloo,ooo,
but the wind coming from the west
beat it back, or northward, where IL
struck a heavy forest of green timber
and subsidized, doing little or no damage
70 tine forest. We learn that on Sun
day afternoon sixty or seventy men
from washoe Valley went up the Mill
Station canyon to put out the nre ap-
nroachiny their farms by that route,
and presume their efforts were sue
cessfnl. as no smoke could be seen In
the canyon yesterday. It Is now De
lieyed that the damage caused oy o tne
coniagration will not exceed $s'ooo
Carson IrrMs.-we extract the fol
lowing from the Register Of this morn
ino. Wood burning appears to DO the
o,aer of the day hereabouts. Az tet
e,NIo.,s sunday morning q fire broke
ont In a pile Of wood near the railroad
,,raek. northwest Of the city, and des'
.troyed about tltty cords belonging 10
man named Robbie. The fire also com
,municated with the fence n wneat'
.Hsid of farmer Treadway, destroying
about 200 feet Of fence and twc
or three acres Of grain. The hre Is
,supposcd to have originated from q
snark thrown out by a locomotive, a;
tbe wood was somewhat decayed ano
