District, in which mention was made of three
different qualities of rock obtained from the same
mine, differing materially in appearance. Capt.
Frank Drake, of the Eberhardt 4 Aurora Com
pany, took the samples and had them assayed by
8. Gumbinner. the mill assayer of the company,
with the following results No. /, surface rock,
in silver, 1878 sc No. .. at As feet depth, con-
tanned 55A per cent. of anthony, and $23 Sc in
silver No. 3, at so feet depth, 1922 OF. All ex-
perts who examined the rock, previous to assay
ing, were fooled considerably on the result. We
congratulate our friend, Major Ogden. superin-
tendent at Morey, on his cheering prospects of a
good mine.

OK THEIR WAY TO YIENSA.-One Of our most
enterprising and respected fellow citizens, Marco
Medin, with his estimAble wife and family,
departed the early part of the present week, on
their way to Europe. where they will spend some
Tnanfba Th.v will att..a A.. VIM. Ewlgi.g
tion, and visit other places of note on the Con-
tinent. The best wishes of a host of friends go
with them on their pleasure trip, and hope they
may return invigorated and pleased to their home
In the sage-brush. During the absence Of Mr..
Medin Capt. Beatty will have charge of the
business here. and all who know him here feel
confident he will discharge his duties faithfully
and we'll, both to customers and employer.
TooDLEsIsM.-The example Of that careful and
prudent old lady. Mrs. Toodles. in the play, has
been followed by the proprietor Of the Delmonico
Restaurant, who has been attending auction sales
lately. Among the articles purchased was the
old sign used by the well-known caterer Moch,
which consists of the nam given painted on a
very small board. The enterprising proprietor
of the Delmonieo has nailed the aforesaid sign
oNtf int uoof OF MS restaurant, POSSIBLY with
the fond hope that the many hungry ones who
in times gone by fed at that famous place will
be induced to give him a call. 1t is not a wicked
deception, as a good meal can be obtained under
the present administration.
The COUNTY BoSDs.-The bonds issued to fund
the debt Of White Pine county have been eagerly
sought for during the past week. and their issu-
ance has kept the Funding Commissioner deci-
dedly busy. Suits which had been commenced
in the District Court, in opposition to the issuing
of the bonds, have all been withdrawn, the hold
ers of scrip deeming it best to accept the law as
1t stands. Should prosperity be the rule this
Summer, we cannot but regard these evidences
of indebtedness to be other than remunerative to
the holder, and as a good investment for those
who wish to exchange scrip for bonds drawing
annual interest at the rate Of 10 per cent.
FREMES's MEETTSG.-on Wednesday evening
last the hremen held a meeting at the Engine
house. and transacted monthly business. Com.
mittees were appointed on various duties. among
which to collect the hats, belts. etc. belonging
to all the companies aud distribute them among
active Members a committee Of three was APP
pointed TO select members who should be con-
sidered exempt from jury duty under the new
law. A resolution was passed to put in a new
fire plug in front Of engine house. Much inter-
est was manifested in the proceedings, and a
permanent organization was effected.
TREASURE HrLL.-we have not been able to visit
Treasure Hill this week, but are informed that
the mining interests thsre are looking well. and
that ore is being constantly extracted from the
mines Of the various companies. The Manhattan
mill is being constantly run on ores from its own
mines. and doing custom work beside. The
stanford mill, at Eberhardt, is kept constantly
busy ON ores from the English company's prop.
critics. We presume that no other mills will be
started up until the result of the annual cleo
tions. now being held In San Francisco. shall
have become known.
ARRrvAIs.-James Gamble, from London. ac-
companied by Charley Switzerland of Palisade.
who has been sojourning in England for
some months, arrived on the stage Thursday
last. Mr.. Gamble is here to commence opera
tions on the Silver Wreath mining property at
Shellburn, and in company with I. N. Browne
and Chas. Sutherland started on Friday morn
ing's stage for that district. Ne are not fully
Informed OF the proposed intention Of the party,
but presume we shall soon hear from them as
being at work in developing shellburn and its
mines.
MURRAY GREER. y. Hicks, from Murray
Creek, In steptoe Valley, informs us that the ag-
rieultural prospects in that section are looking
better than for a long time Mr.. Hicks is heavily
interested in stock in that section, and is the
owner Of many " broad acres" situate near Min
eral City. In the event of Robinson District
