ing out upon and across the Crown
Point switch of the Virginia and
Truckce Railroad. His car stuck a
little In crossing tho track, so that a
platform car which was descending the

him. He fortunately escaped with no
more serious injury than the breaking
of the tibla, or largest bone of the leg
below the knee, some six inches above
the ankle. He was taken to his resi-
6ance in town, where DIR. Kirby at
tended him. and he Is now getting

meuced praying In such q vociferous
manner that no was ousted by some OF

for the indignity, pelted the church
with stones until several windows
were broken, IS again In trouble.
Night before last he made himself too
humorous among some of the private
residences on Nevada street, when
Constable sam IIodgkinson snatched

LucxY.-The Carson Register says:
We hear of one party who was largely
benefited by the late flood. \ saw
mill OH the Truckee, near tho town OF
that name, had $4,000 worth OF logs
cut and hauled to the river somc miles
above the mill. The water was too
low to float the logs, but when the
flood came, it picked up the whole
mass and tloated them down to the
head of the mill race, where the rat
rorped and stopped. All the MILL man
has to do now Is to tur tho logs ihto
the race, when they run into the IRON
grasp of the machinery.
HE MnILs.-Those mills on Carson
river which were demoralized by the
great storm and Hood are being brought
into working operation rs fast as pos
sible. On saturday the Yellow Jacket
mill started up twenty stamps, being

will probably be able to keep running
regularly hereafter. The Mexican
dam Is being repaired, and in the

will probably DO enabled to start into
operation again.
