4 SCENE AT TECCKEE.

i few mornings ago the iahabit-
ants of the mountain town OF l'rucEee
who were ont of bed at five O'Clock
we're treated to a rare sight. Snow
was upon the railroad track running
through the town to a depth. of foLr
feet, and the snow-pIow which is
kept constantly at this point was at
taehed to SIX locomotives, and these
coupled each to the other. Then a
dash was made at the bank, a fierce
plunge, and the engines were flying
through the walls OF snow, leaving
il their track a grand column Of fly
ing snow, looking, our informant
says, like a waterspoUt, seen at sea.
The opening was successfully made,
aud the trackwas completely cleared
of snow.

VIsA.IA.-A new s~emi-weekly pa
per is to be published in this -four
ishing little town. It is to be called
the Weekly Herder, and the
sensitive ears of the Visaiians are
aggrieved at this. They urge that a
person of average refinement would
probably decline to subscribe to a
paper entitled The Daily Polywog
and contend that the Semi Weekly
Herder is very little better. Stephen
Burton is to be editor and proprie-
tor.

E. n. n. G.-The White Pine
News of Saturday last, after making
a fiattering showing of the business
likely to fall into the lap of the
builders of she Eastern Nevada Mar
row Gauge Railroad from Elko to
Hamilton, says:
A good many people ask what the
corporators under the Narrow Gauge
franchise are doing. Some of these
ask for too much information. But
we may say, without violating any
interest, that they have been nego-
timing in London for an advance of
funds, on bonds, wherewith to put
the work through. The persons
who so positively promised the funds
at an eatlv day got a privilege of
six months within which to come
forward with fnnds, though almost
positively assuring the. corporators
that they would require no such
time. That term is up, lacking two
days; then, whether with English or
American money, the work will go
on: and no time viii be allowed any
io5bers. Funds viii be ready to
commence active work at the earliest
moment that the condition OF the
ground and weather viii permit.

bloody ARRAY between II. Mannheim,
the well known pawnbroker, and NJ.

doing business III Manheim's estab-
lisiment. Knives and pistols were
freely and vigorously used by both
parties to the difficulty. Both men
we're pretty seriously though not
dangerously wounded. Mannheim
received an ugly cut across Il : left
eve. extending several inches down
the cheek bone. The pupil of the
eve was only saved from being
slashed open blythe protruding brow
and nigh cheek bone, As it was,
the LID was split open; though it is
believed that the eye can be saved
without permanent injury to the
sight. Cahan got OF little luckier,
though he too was badly beaten and
bruised about the head with a six
shooter, in the banas of his antag-
onist. No shots were fired during
the row, which, owing to the timely
arlival Of the officers. did not last

BY year their value has become more manifest,
as demonstrated by largely increased sales, and
we challenge any brand to show more satisfac-

facture to materials of highest aard, as
proved by analysis, We claim like results in all
time. On the Wheat crop the testimony Is OF
UNREASONABLE character. We respectfully call
attention to our popular Guano known as

trial to convince all of its value. The Ammonia
