and useful, especially at Virginia, are
not able now to take advantage of
stormy weather and put up prices on
their little donkey loads of wood as
they used to In times past. During
the late storm they only charged their
regular rates, 81 q load, or at most,
"One dolla, two bittee." They lay
in a good stock OF wood in the Sum-
mer and Fall H.. sale In the Winter,
and know It won't do for them to hold
on to 1t for big prices, as the Virginia
and Truckee Railroad regulates the
supply pretty we'll. Notwithstanding
the damages to the road ~ the recent
storm keeping the trains i:om running,
these celestial wood merchants knew
very we'll that the stopnags was only
temporary, and that a hundred cords
or so was liable to be run up over the
road from Carson any day. 'Sharon's
mules" knock the coneelt out OF
Chinese doukeys.
SEVERELY HURT.-On New Years
Day, says the Enterprise, Mr.. Brisa-
cher, brother Of Allie Brisacher, dealer
In wines, liquors, ETC., on North G
street, met with quite n severe acct
dent. He had been in the cellar Of the
liquor store and was in the act Of COM
Ing up through a trapdoor In the Side
walk, when . sudden and violent gust
OF wind caught the door-whleh was
standing in an upright poSition-and
brought 1t down upon the top Of his
head with great force. He was knocked
down the ladder, by which he was as
cendlng, to the cellar floor, where he
lay for he knows not how long III an
insensible condition. Upon recover
ing his consciousness he found himself
in great pain and covered with blood.
The heavy door cut a frlghtful cash In
the top OF his head which, to see dress
ed made one sick, and It seems almost
a miracle that he was not killed out
right.
PIONEER REsrAURANT.-ThiS new
restaurant, just opened in Frazer's
building on Main street, just above the
News Office, will be found great con-
yenience to persons residing In or
about the central part Of town, and

Regular boarders by the day, week or
month can DO suitably provided for at
the Pioneer. Table bountifully sup
piled with the very best Of everything
to be found In market. Meals ut all
