Savage mine, causing such a-ro the
"shorts"-disastrous advance in the
stock, We are informed ON what we
consider pretty good authority, to be q
small streak of exceedingly rich ore,
about seven inches wide. 1t is being
drifted upon, and u cross-cut Is being
made TO determine its real extent and
value. Being no weak little stringer
of low grade ore, but evidently q strong
feeder belonging to a good body Of the
same sort Of ore, 1t Is looked upon rs a
very encouraging and promising indl.
cation. The Enterprise Of this morn
ing. in an item on the subject, says
''Iho workmen are kept shut up In
that Of the mine in which the devel-
Opment is asserted to have been made.
We hope that all that Is said OF the
value of the newly encountered deposit
may be true, yet we would be content
were we assured that the half Is firmly
founded upon fact. That a considera-
bic body Of good orc has been found
seems to be pretty generallyadmitted.
Fox CoSGREssNEN.-rhe Enterprise
of this morning says: ave hear 1t
rumored that I. L. Requa, Superlnten-
dent Of the Chollsr, is Xix ely to be In
the field for Congress. He must raise
the Chollar, turn down his collar and
control his choler II he would sue
ceed." The cholerio remarks of the
Enterprise are inappropriate. Mr.. Re-
qua Is n prominent man and always
will be In any community wherever no
may be. Ever faithful and energetic
in the discharge Of his duty, correct
and practical In his Ideas Of things and
men in general, he would make a good
Congressman, true to the best inter-
ests Of his constituents and the coun-
try. These ideas are fully confirmed
by n conversation we had with Protes-
sor Fowler who examined Mr.. Requa's
bumps.
A BIO RuS TO he MADE.-We un-
derstand that 1t Ia the Intention Of tho
Crown Point Mining Company to
make for next April the biggest run
ever made In one month by any COM
pany OH the Comstock lode. They In
tend to take out during that month
one million In bullion. They have
the ore, and are satisfied they can do
this. 1t will only be necessary to take
out and work about 1000 tons Of ore,
worth $50 per ton. The average of
the ore now In sight In the mine Is just
about 800 per ton. The largest run
Of one month which has ever hereto
fore been made by any company on
the lode was that made by the Chollar,
Of $500, 900. It Is now determined to
make the Crown Point chief. So says
the Enterprise.
FATAL DrsINFEcrroN.-The Carson
Register is responsible for the follow
ing: Some time ago the Ice was broken
on n duck pond In Wade's Valley, AL
pine county, for tho purpose Of getting
to water to baptizs q Mormon convert.
Subsequently, and during the coolest
weather the pond failed to freeze over
again. The proprietor thought a little
strange Of this, but looked upon the
phenomenon with that skepticism Pc
culiar to unbelieyers, until his ducks
began to die of, when he commenced
swearing. Every duck on the ranch,
twenty-five In number, died, when the
ranchman turned the water out Of the
pond upon somo grass land, and now
the land Il as bare as q marble floor
and the rancher Is In despair.
