Scientific Press, of the 18th instant. We
presume It has reference to the old COM
pany known under the name mentioned:
The Eberhardt 5. & M. Co., White
Pine, has filed a petition in the County
Court for disincorporation. The reasons
seAforth are that the mines and property
of the corporation have been sold. The
application is made by order of a vote of
the stockholders on the 9th of March,
at a meeting held that day, at which
more than two-third of the capital stock
we're represented. The corporation has
no outstanding debts, claims, demands
or liabilities.
The Aurora Consolidated S. NJ. Co.,
has filed a similar petition, a majority of
the shareholders having voted to disin-
corporate.
MINING AccIDENT.-About 5 o'clock
P. NJ. Saturday, says the Gold Hill Nelps
of the 14th, Andrew Scott, working in
the shaft of the Baltimore Consolidated
mine, was, by the giving way of the
staging upon which he stood, precipi-
tated seventy-fve feet down the shaft.
Strange to say, he was not killed out
right, bnt when taken up was found to
have his right ankle badly crushed and
dislocated, his right arm paralyzed, a
severe cut over his right eye, another
back of his head, and was also badly
bruised all over his body. DIR. Kirby at
tends him, and he is getting along very
well.
SUDDEN DEATH.-The youngest child,
a little girl, of Deputy County Assessor
Thos. j. Tenant, says the Eureka Sen
tinel of the 18th, died at an early hour
yesterday morning after a brief illness.
Mr.. Tenant being absent in the north
ern end of the county on official business,
was sent for, and arrived on the stage
about a hour after it had breathed its
last. We can assur the grief-stricken
parents that they have the sincere SYM
pathy of a wide circle of friends and ac-
~quaintanees in their sad affection.

assault to commit murder, and sentenced

masking love to their wives immediately
under their noses.
