A DREAM VERIFIED.-Mr. Siosson, who
was lately caved on and badly mangled
in the Savage mine, and died from the
effects Of his injuries, related, according
to the Enterprise, the verifcaton of
remarkable dream in connection with
the unfortunate affair. The night before
4 he was hurt he received letter from his
brother, then in Phoebe, in which the
brother stated that he was very uneasy
in his mind on account Of dream he
had had the previous night. He then
went on to say that he dreamed that he
saw the brother caved on and very badly
n hurt. This letter Slosson read to a
! miner who was working in the same drift
Il with him, and seemed little uneasy
4 about the dream related by his brother.
Il That night nothing happened, but the
y night following he was caved on just in
j the manner his brother had observed in
a his dream and described in his letter.
The SUMMER SIDE PRESENTED The
d summer side Of our dual climate-as-
suming that the star-signature letter on
4 pneumonia in yesterdays issue is cor
u rect-was presented to us yesterday.
y The rays of the sun were as warm as
could be desired, and the heavy snow
a. fall of the preceding day settled and
q melted rapidly, the muddy torrents flow
ing down the streets as if q succession of
8 water-spouts had turned loose in the
n mountains above. The temperature
~ about noon was more like June than
III February. The winter phase may be ex-
& pected around again, with snow and ice
accompaniments, at any hour
NJ HAD Hrs TROUBLE FOR NorH1Na.-A
chicken-thief visited the coop of Mr..
d Nixon, lower Main street, night before
q last, prying board off to make his en-
4 trance. Fortunately for the owner of
a the fowls, they had all been removed bat
one little blue-legged rooster, which was
4 Wheeling its life away with the epizootic
n He didn't take it, and is now probably
" congratulating himself on having the
Il moral firmness to resist so great a temp
tation. The only loss to Mr.. Nixon was
\ few moments time in repairing the
4 coop.
a The New LocoMoTIvE.-Cap Far
mum, the gentleman sent out by Gen.
4 Page to find and hurry on the new loco
motive and other freight for the narrow
gauge railroad, shipped from Lehi many
days ago, found the locomotive a short
distance this side of the railroad termin-
us, deeply imbedded in the mud and
4 abandoned by the freighter who had con-
4 tracted to bring it in. 1t is safe to say,
from what we know of Capt. Farnum's
energy and indomitability, that the little
4 iron giant is now rolling Piocheward.
4 FRAUDs.-There are in Phoebe, at the
q present time, an unusually large number
Of men who are looking for work and
Il terribly afraid they will find it. They
& present themselves at the Offices of the
mining companies almost every hour in
the day, and, when offered work, usually
a ask dollar advanced to get something
z to eat with. If they get the money that
n is tho last seen of them. One citizen
81 assures us that he has thus paid three
n times to have cord of wood cut for his
III stove, and it is not cut yet.
N The DENVER AND UTAH RAILROAD
Letters went out by the last mail, writ
ten by influential gentlemen Of Phoebe,
n to the Directors Of the Denver and Utah
Railroad, asking whether they intend to
extend the line to Southeastern Nevada.
ii We are promised for publication the sub
III stance of the answers when they come to
u hand. 1t is said that this railroad is be-
4 ing pushed with great vigor in Colorado,
4 all the counties interested having sub
scribed literally.
4 EaAN RANoE.-The newly discovered
district in the vicinity of Willow Creek,
thirty miles south Of Robinson district,
in Steptoe valley, is likely to become
very important, we are credibly in
formed. The ores, of the smelling class,
are rich, and found in strong veins.
This, with other recent discoveries, make
fair promise for Egan range becoming
one of the first mineral belts OF the
State.
AIR-plpE. -Eisenmen & Co. are man.
ufacturing 600 feet of 6-inch air-pipe for
the Washington and Creole Mining Com.
pany. 1t is made of heavy sheet zinc,
riveted and soldered. The manufacturers
are making blower on an original prin-
ciple to accompany the pipe.
The Hamilton stage came in last night
at ten o'clock with spirited four-horse
team. The road over Patterson noun.
