PUaILISTIC.

Snch rapid progress made In the
"msnly art Of self-defense or the
science Of pugilism, as illustrated In
several Instances Of late In various
parts Of the country, where a man has
been killed outright by a single blow
OF q hst. or his face smashed In. or his
lower Jaw knocked Of, that the ques-
ton naturally presents Itself: Are
meu's heads getting weaker, or their
muscle, and hitting powers stronger:
We are Inclined to the belief that both
sides of the proposition arc true. The
time was when a fist fight simply re-
suited in a swollen moss-agate setting
TO the eyes, \ severely enlarged pro-
boscis, and perhaps the los Of a few
teeth. Not so now, however. No sim'
pie surgery, the application OF raw
beefsteaks or anything OF the sort will
restore tho annihilated bugle, the sto'
ven forehead, or the unjointed neck.
The effect OF this CONTINUED triumph Of
muscle over brain, upon future gener-
ations, remains to be seen.

WHITE PINE MINING ITEMS.
From tho White Pine News, August Sd.

From tho White Pine News, AugustSd.l
Since our last Review there Is a
slight improvement In the different
mine. on Treasure Hill. The bodies
OF rich ore are still holding out Ia sew
eral OF the leading mines. The Ward
Bcecher Consolidated Co.'S mines are
greatly improved In appearance-in
quantity as we'll as quality Of ore. In
the Ward Beecher u force Is breasting
In ore running north and south, the
face Of the same being about 20 feet
wide and 80 feet in depth. A contract
has also been let to connect with the
body Of ore in the Blasdel within shaft
commencing at the old Blasdel shaft.
The Edgar shaft Is down liz feet, and
q drift has been run northerly, ut the
end Of which all excavation has been
made In good ore running north n
cast. Connections have also been
made with the Anchor tunnel, aud nu-
merou, drifts have been run In order
to prospect the mines thoroughly. IL
Is expected that they will DO able to
ship from the mines the coming week
about 10 tons Of tirst-claSs ore daily.
In the Eberlardt & Aurora u. Conn.,
pany there is no material change since
our lat Review. The o. Ii. Treasure
is looking fully a. we'll as lat week.
an will, no doubt. under the able
management of the Superintendent,
Capt. Vim. Boyle, prove II Of the
most valuable mines Of Treasure Hill.
The Silver Wave Is now having Its
rock worked at the Swansea mill. with
the result Of which. Mr.. Fleming, the
Superintendent, l. fully satisfied. The
Sunbeam Is drifting In the Moscow
shaft, In the south side Of which they
have 4 body OF good ore about 10 feet
wide. This mine promises from pre-
ent Indications 10 strike some rs rich
ore as was ever taken out OH Treasure
Hill. In the East Sheboygan, ore OF
very high grade has been struck In the
southwest drift Of the mine, with fair
indications Of striking a large body Of
ore. The outside di.trict are constant
" improving In the richness Of the
mines both at Schell Creek and Robin.
son District. The SUCCESS Of the fur
mace nc Robinson Is looked upon by
all as the building up Of that district,
and a. far as We have learned, the iur-
mace has made n run Of q tons, produc-
ing 25 bars of bullion. The ore found
in the last few days shows free gold,
which WAS unexpected BY those work
ing the mines. The Canton milne has
struck a line body Of free milling ore

BATTLE MOUNTAIN STAGE ROBBED,

"A Thsa.aaa Dollar r.,
from the ReyeIIle. Au1u,t sd.l

o.. - A#
From the ReveIle, August sal
The Battle Mountain stage was.
stopped and robbed last night about II
o'clock, on Its up trip, at the forks OF
the road, three miles below "Vick's
Station" about half way between this
city aud Battle Mountain. Three rob
bers sprang suddenly Up out Of the
sagebrush At the above described place
and ordered Scott, the driver. to stop,
aud. Us the request was instituted at
the butt end Of q shotgun. Scotty In.
stantly complied aud pulled up his
team. The road agents after unlltct-
Ing the leaders, ordered the passengers
70 alight and obliged them TO stand in
a row BY the side Of the road with their
hands pointing toward the ornament
while one Of their number went
through" the party to tho tune OF
about 81, 900 In coin aud watches. The
treasure box was broken open, but Mr..
Crockett, express agent here, u Of the
| opinion thar nothing OF any conse-
ouence was found In It. The robbers
then broke open and examined all the
baggage on the stagc. even broached =
box Of eggs In search Of concealed
treasure, without, however, finding
anything TO repay them for their
trouble. There were eight passengers
on board the stage, two Of whom were
f.msles. The ladies were exempted
from the general search and one Of
them, who was unwell, was allowed
TO retain her scat In the coach while
her fellow passengers were being In
terviewed by the robbers OH the out
| side. n Mr.. Rodabush--who was riding,
OH the box with the driver-had a val
liable gold watch aud a ~six-shooter
taken from him; the plstol-which was
the only one on the stage-was not
loaded. Mr.. r. had $0l In gold coin
In one Of the pockets Of his pantaloons,
but having on n pair OF overalls the
robbers failed to find 1t. Mr. Spencer,
Of tho liquor house OF Hotaling s. Co.,
Of San Francisco, was mulct to the tune
OF several hundred dollars and q yalu-
able gold watch. A gentleman named
Letciicr contributed $25O TO the GENE
raj fund, aud u boy who was coming
out from the States to seek his fortune
In the silver mines, was relieved Of
$3.50, but the benevolent road agents,
In consideration Of his youth and limo
cence, generously returned hun q five
dollar piece for breakfast money, etc.,
on bis arrival In Austin. G.
Two ofthe robbers are described Al
being about six feet In height, and the
Other about five feet aud nine inches.
They all had handkerchief Owe their
faces and were evidently Americans.
The "boys" were extremely sociable
and talked quite freely with the pas
sengers while making their little col
lections, aud even assisted In replacing
the baggage upon the stage after COM
pleting their search. One Of the lady
passengers thinks she recognized the
voice Of one OF the robbers aud appears
quite certain That she Is not mistaken ;
II that Is the case, the chances are
quite favorable for the arrest, convic-
ton aud punishment Of the criminals.

BUSHELS or JEWELS.
Precious s,e.es h Arizsaa.

A letter from Fort Defiance, Arl-
zona, to the Cincinnati Commercial,
says:
Tho whole country hcreabouts
abounds In curious stones, aud some Of
great value have been found. Garnets
arc particularly plentiful. and one
meets Indians every day with from o
gill to n pint to sell. They arc Of ev-
cry shade, from deep blood to palo
pink. Whether valuable or not I cam
not say. I think most Of them are too
small to b. Of much value. On the
ant hills one can often find numbers Of
small garnets brought there by tho
ants. Il Is generally supposed that
the ants bring up the bright stones
aud shining gravel found on the hills
from their chambers below, but the
Indians and old plalnsmen say this Is
an error, and that they bring them
from a distance and pile them on the
dirt mound to make q hard, firm sur
face. They are evidently attracted BY
bright articles, whether from 4 sense
of beauty " otherwise, and | have
found on their mounds garneta flakes
Of mica fused with quartz, and many
grains OF CLASSY stones. A species of
aqui-marlne Is very plentiful, of every
size. from a grain Of wheat to q large
cherry. The post trader has a quart
or so Of these, which look to me like
those used as watch crystals. A few
very fine sapphires have been found,
one Of which was taken to New York
and cut, and proved to be quite valua-
able. Opals have been found further
north, but rarely. There are no
specimens here. One "spinel ruby"
Of considerable value, has recently
been found, and many have stones
which they believe to be diamonds, but
none but 4 practical lapidary could
recognize q diamond IN the rough.
Whether those shown to me are nc
tually diamonds, or only fused cortz,
or other vitreous stones, cannot even
hazard a guess. Malachite Is found
here In small chips halt an inch or an
iuch square ; but a few days since an
Indian brought from some place south
Of here a slab Of 1t three inches long.
Some beautiful turquolses were found
In the same neighborhood aud Inferior
ones hero. The country abounds In
curious %petrifactlons and more fossils
than Agasslz could classify In n hun
dred years. 1t presents to me the up
pearance Of 3 country In which rivers
were once numerous aud animal life
abundant but sudden drought came
upon II, the rivers dried up. and the
plants and animals turned to stone.
Last year some men came here from
San Francisco aud spent the Summer
In collecting stones, supposed to be
precious, Of which they took away
three or four bushels. It Is now re-
ported that they obtained from the
whole mass over q million dollars
worth Of garnets, rub!es, turquoises
and diamonds. l should, Oh general
principles, incline to set this down as
4 western "hoo-doo." but this year
the same parties returned, with sev-
eral others, representing an incorpor-
ated company, and arc now somewhere
near San Juan.
